Where Teachers Are Assigned Additional Grade to be Opened At Haven Home School-Indication Point to Largest Enrollment History of Schools. During the week the assignment of the public school teachers was made and it was found that there are but few changes in the faculties of the various schools. There has been but one death among the ranks of the teachers and no marriages. The changes that have been made are principally among the teachers in the lower grades in the city schools and in the county schools. The school at West Savannah will not be opened this year because of the fact there is no building available. This will be much regretted by the colored inhabitants of this section. At the Haven Home school there will be one grade added to the four which were conducted there last year. The addition of this grade will do away with the operation of the school at the Duffy street hall, where two grades have been conducted for several years. The new school building, which it has been announced will be erected on the Haven Home property, will probably be begun during the coming school year, but will hardly be ready for occupancy until October of next year. Judging from present indications the colored schools will have a record attendance this year and as in the past few years many children, especially in the lower grades, will probably find it impossible to get accommodation. The assignment of teachers is as follows: East Broad Street School—Prof. R. W. Gadsden; principal; Miss R. G. Houston, seventh grade; Miss E. L. Jackson, sixth grade A;Mr. S. J. Reid, sixth grade B; Miss L. L. Carey, fifth grade A; Mrs. L. A. Woodard, fifth grade B; Miss M. Reynolds, fourth grade A; Mrs. E. A. Jackson, fourth grade B; Miss M. M.

He held the position of chairman of the citizens' committee for three years, being in that position at the time of his death. He was for several years inspector of customs at this port. He was also a member of the school board and was interested and active in the educational work. Mr. Moore was a native of Brunswick, Ga., having come to Beaufort in 1888 to work as a printer in the office of the Sea Island News. In 1892 he married Miss Eliza V. Washington.

Savannah SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1913 Eight Negroes. Die Of Suffocation TWELVE WERE IMPRISONED IN CELL Only Three Small Air Holes Available—One of Four Survivors Seeks Floor Crack—Three Guards Held for Crime Atquitted Richmond, Tex., Sept. 8.—Gov. Colquitt of this State, the Attorney-General and local police have to-day begun an investigation into what is pictured as one of the worst prison horrors of modern times, the allegation being made that twelve Negroes were jammed into an underground cell at the state prison farm building, known as Camp No. 3. The cell, ten feet long, seven feet wide and seven feet high with metal walls and ceilings, had in it only four airholes, each the size of a quarter, and one of them was stopped up- Eight of the twelve thus imprisoned in this foul-hole died of suffocation in the night. There was a deadly fight between the cramped and imprisoned men for vantage of placing their lips to the air holes. Those who were conquered died. One of the four survivors found scant breath of life by discovering a crack in the flooring, and with vivid lips succeeded in sucking sufficient rank air into his lungs to keep him alive. The four survivors told Police Justice Fenn and the State Prison Commissioners to-day that until they grew so faint they had persistently yelled to the guards: "Men are dying in here!" They swore the only reply they got was: "You'll all wish you were dead if you don't make less noise." In the end they were silent—eight of them dead; the others too weak to cry out or even moan. The survivors were only semi-conscious when rescued. Justice Fenn made a personal examination to-day. It served to expose the underground cell where the men had been confined more terribly than had been admitted. For it had been declared that there were ten air holes, but Justice Fenn said his examination disclosed but four, and that one of these was stopped up so fast that a man could not have pried it open with his hands. The Negroes say that this frightful punishment was meted out to them mearly because they were charged with being lazy in their work in the cotton fields. Three guards have been arrested charged with the responsibility for the barbarous tragedy, and their hearings are set for to-morrow. Mr. Titus T. Sanders, an old citizen, died at his late home, near Sackville, on Monday morning last. The funeral took place Tuesday afternoon and was largely attended. The services were conducted by Rev.B. S. Hannah. Mr. Sanders was well known especially by the older citizens. He was a citizen of sterling worth, straightforward and punctual in all of his dealings and quiet and affable in his manner. During his early life he took an active part in military affairs, being connected with the Savannah Light Infantry and afterwards promoted by the late Col. J. H. Deveaux as a member of his battalion staff as paymaster with the rank of lieutenant. He served with distinction for several years until placed on the retired list. Mr. Sanders was a member and officer of the St. Andrews A. M. E. Church at Fairview, and of the Farmers Union, the St. Luke Society and the Savannah Light Branch. He was highly respected and beloved by everybody who knew him. He left a widow and a host of friends to mourn his death. Wedding Announcement. Invitations are out announcing the wedding of Miss Ruthalean Eliza Martin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Martin, 106 East Forty-second street, to Mr. H. Charles Chapman, which will take place on the coming Wednesday evening, September seventeenth, at 8:30 o'clock at St. Philip church, West Broad and Charles streets. Woman Murdered By Husband WIFE'S THROAT EARLY YESTERDAY MORNING Angered Because Woman Refused to Live With Him—Climbed Front Porch and Entered Room While Woman Slept. About 2:30 o'clock Friday morning the shrill sound of a woman's voice crying, "Murder! murder!" was heard in the neighborhood of Gwinnett and Cuyler streets and caused the sleeping inhabitants of that section to suddenly arise from their beds and investigate the unusual disturbance. The shrill voice which pierced the stillness of the morning was that of Mrs. Mary Alice Cotton who lived in the upper front west flat at No. 822 Gwinnett street, where it was later discovered her daughter, Mrs. Annie Mary Davis, had been murdered by her husband, Henry Davis. The circumstances surrounding the murder are very revolting and the community in which the crime was committed was thrown into the wildest excitement. From information received, it seems as if the murdered woman and her husband had been on bad terms for the past three months, and during that time they had lived together only now and then. Especially strained were the relations between them recently and on Wednesday of this week the man had a warrant taken out for the woman, who in turn had a peace warrant sworn out on the man. It seems that the man had prevailed on the woman to live with him, but she refused to do so. On the night of the murder the woman, who occupied the flat of three rooms with her mother, had been up until about midnight ironing and had been asleep two hours when she was murdered. Her's was the front room of the flat, opening on the up-stairs porch. The long window blinds extending to the floor were closed, tied with a piece of rope, and after turning the light down the woman retired. The murderer evidently climbed the porch and entered the woman's room through the window by cutting the rope which held the blinds together. So stealthily did he enter the room that neither the unfortunate woman nor her mother, who occupied the adjoining room, heard him. No sooner did the man gain entrance to the room before he attacked the sleeping woman with the sharp instrument, evidently a razor. Nothing was known of the attack by the mother until she heard a faint cry from her daughter's room. She rushed in through the communicating door between her's and her daughter's room just in time to see the woman's husband climb over the railing on the porch and hear him drop to the ground ten feet below and escape. The sight which confronted the mother as she stood over her daughter was a ghastly one. Blood was spurting in every direction from the wounded woman's neck, which was cut from ear-to ear, in a steady stream. The mother tried to stop the flow and at the same time screamed, at the top of her voice for help. Assistance came shortly, but the wounded woman was cut too severely to be saved and she died shortly afterwards. The authorities were notified of the murder, but up to late yesterday-afternoon had not been able to apprehend the murderer. Return From Northern Markets Mrs. Aurelia E. Allen of the Colored Milinery Store, 464 West Broad street, returned to the city Thursday from Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York, where she has been studying the latest styles and creations of fall and winter millinery. She has purchased a select stock of these goods. Announcement will soon be made of the grand fall opening at which time the ladies will have an excellent chance to view and examine these new creations. Dr. J.T. Smith, formerly of this city now residing in Chicago, is among the visitors in town. Fifthleth Anniversary Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 9, 1913. The National Negro Nurses' Convention met last Wednesday, Thursday and Friday in the Emancipation Hall, 1352 Lombard St. The nurses represented nearly every state in the union. They were welcomed to the city by Hon. Harry W. Bass, Secretary of the Emancipation Celebration Commission. Owing to the incomplete condition of the hall on the exposition grounds, the final reception was held in St. Peter Clavers Hall when the nurses and citizens of Philadelphia led by Mrs. Mary R. Tucker, a graduate nurse, and Mrs. Helen Stevens Bayton, a social leader of Philadelphia, gave the visiting nurses a grand reception. Mrs. R. N. Clark of Richmond, Virginia, was reelected president. MEET NEXT YEAR AT NORFOLK. It was decided by unanimous vote to meet next year at Norfolk, Va., which would have been the place of meeting this year had the nurses not decided to meet in Philadelphia on account of the Emancipation Celebration. The nurses went away highly pleased with their cordial treatment in Philadelphia. GRADUATE NURSES' EXHIBIT. I. Hospital Social Service and Tuberculosis Department.

Act at once. Executive Board Odd Fellows Met HELD SESSION IN ATLANTA ON THE 5th Practically Entire Old Board of Officers Retained—Salaries Of Several Officers Increased—Deputy's Fee Abolished The executive committee' of the Odd Fellows of the state met in Atlanta on Friday of last week and the result of the meeting has been the cause of considerable interest throughout the state. Particularly interesting to the members of the order was the meeting of last Friday, because it was generally believed throughout the state that several of the officers declared elected at the recent grand lodge session in this city would not be ratified by the board in its meeting on the 5th- That this opinion was well founded may be seen from the fact that the board through injunctions retained practically all the old officers, rejecting the grand lodge elections of J. C. Styles, Dawson, grand treasurer; W. D. Johnson, Plains, grand director and B. W. S. Daniels, Sayannah, grand medical examiner, and filling their places respectively by the old officers, Wm. Driskell, Atlanta; E. A. Fields, Sayannah, R. C. Williams, Augusta. Of the new officers elected at the grand lodge only one was ratified by the board, J. M. Pitts, Brunswick, deputy grand master. It is stated that the salaries of several of the grand officers were increased by the board, the grand master from $100 to $125; the grand secretary from $175 to $300 and the grand treasurer from $75 to $100 per month. One of the enactments of the board that will meet with general approval was the abolishing of the law which compelled the lodges to pay the deputies two dollars a visit, which they were suppose to make twice a year. Another enactment of approval was the doing away with all special deputies. Capt. W. D. Armstrong was reappointed deputy of the twelfth division, and Mrs. S. A. Warren, who has held the position of supervisor for the past two years was removed and Mrs. F. D. Armstrong appointed. Mr. Josh Bourke Dead. Mr. Josh Bourke, after an illness of several months, died on last Saturday morning at his late residence 5200 burlton street lane, east, and was buried on Tuesday afternoon. He was a member of the First A. B. church and in the absence of its pastor, Rev. Daniel Wright officiated. Mr. Bourke was a native of this city and was well known. He possessed a very pleasing disposition and was kindhearted to a fault. For a number of years he had been in the employment of the Ocean Steamship Company, delivering papers. He was a faithful husband, and a devoted father and his death has caused much regret among his many friends. He leaves a wife, Mrs. Lottie Bourke, four children, three sisters, Misses Mary E., Susie and Mattie Bourke and other relatives to mourn his death. Liberty Theatre Asks Colored Patronage.

The Liberty is one of the most attractive play houses in the city and this season is in charge of Messrs. Dixon, Zabin and King, lessees.

L. terminals, was accidently drowned at the Hutchinson Island dock Tuesday evening by stepping off the wharf. St. Paul C. M. E. Church St. Paul C. M. B. Church In spite of the showers of rain which came at intervals, delightful services were held at St. Paul Church all day last Sunday. An unusual large number witnessed the eleven o'clock service and were repaid for their venture by a powerful discourse by the pastor. The evening service began with a red hot prayer service. By 8:30 the church was comfortably crowded The Rev. Martin preached from Daniel 1:8. He laid stress upon the fact that Daniel was a type of the man that God wills to serve Him while in their youth and strength, as well as to know, when to say no, and when to say yes. The Lord's supper was ministered to more than three altars of anxious communicants. More than twenty members have been added to the church under Rev. Martin's administration, which began the latter part of last June. To morrow will be a high day in St. Paul. Thursday evening the mock trial will come off. The public is invited to attend. Pilgrim Congregational Church 3 mile post, Augusta Road The services on last Sunday were very interesting. Sunday school was well attended. At the communion service Rev. J. W.

Despite the inclement weather on Sunday morning, quite a crowd accompanied Rev. Wright to Nicolsonboro, where he conducted the services at the Nicolsonboro Baptist church, of which he is pastor. The lesson was read from Mark9:1-9 by Rev, Walker. Rev. Wright's text was from Matt 17:4 The subject was "Let us go down to the multitude." The sermon was so forcibly delivered that it will long be remembered. The choir sang "Who at my door is knocking." Rev. Walker lined a hymn and on invitation a large crowd bowed and prayer was offered. After a few minutes recess, the communion services were begun. Quite a number participated and all seemed happy. We then returned to the city. At night Rev. Wright read for the lesson St. John 3:1-16, his text was from St. John 4:5, the subject was "Regeneration." The sermon was quite spirited and carried our minds back to the time when we were as blind as Nicodemus. The choir sang "Shouting glory." Rev Wright then lined a hymn. You are always welcome at any of our services. St. Philip Church Sunday was communion day at St. Philip. Rev. Singleton preached both morning and evening.

Everybody is invited to these services. Somebody's Sister In our old school reader was a poem entitled "Somebody's Mother." It told of an old woman helped across the busy, slippery street by a bright laddie who returned to the merry group of his fellows to say: "She's somebody's mother, boys, you know. you know. For all she is aged and poor and slow." I wish a rhyme could be given us on "Somebody's Sister," to stir the noblest imaginations of our youth, and elevate their demeanor toward every young woman they meet. Somebody's sister is walking by the street corner where you and your chums are congregating tonight. You are feeling merry with a bit of loose change in your pocket and the day's work over. A group of young fellows will recklessly make remarks about a passing woman in the evening, which one young man, alone wouldn't think of expressing next morning. Set the bound of decency against your bouyancy. The next young woman to happen along may be your sister or your sweetheart. If your chum, not knowing, should offer her an insult there would be trouble, wouldn't there?—Twin City Star- Carlyle's Creed. Man is born to expend every particle of strength that God Almighty has given him in doing the work he finds he is fit for, to stand it out to the best breath of life and do his best.—Thomas Carlyle. SUNDAY SCHOOL. SUNDAY SCHOOL. --- Lesson XI.—Third Quarter, For Sept. 14, 1913. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Ex. xx, 12-21. Memory Verses, 12-17—Golden Text, Luke x, 27—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Continuing our study of the two tables given to Moses, we will look first at the six remaining commandments and then at what is written concerning the relation of the whole to the sinner and the saint. The fifth command is repeated and applied to believers today in Eph. vi. 13. In reference to the sixth, "Thou shalt not kill," our Lord taught that it was dangerous even to be angry, and in I John ill. 15, we read that "whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer." In reference to the seventh Matt. v. 28, teaches that it may be broken by even a look. As to the eighth, the question is asked in Mal. ill. 8, "Will a man rob God?" and the answer is, "Ye have robbed Me in tithes and offerings." Many a man who would not be guilty of stealing a dime or a nickel robs God of His Sabbath day by finding his own pleasure in it and is meaner than Jacob in refusing to give back to God at least a tenth of that which God has so bountifully given to him. A good comment on the ninth is found in Zach. vii, 10; viii, 17, where we are forbidden even to imagine evil in our hearts against a brother or a neighbor. If any testify falsely against us it gives us fellowship with the Lord Jesus, against whom false witnesses were hired to testify, even as it had been predicted, "False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I knew not" (Ps. xxxv, 11; Matt. xxv, 59-61). As to covetousness, it was on that point that Paul saw his sinfulness (Rom. vil, 7) and afterward wrote that covetousness is idolatry (Col. ill, 5). Our Lord said, "Take heed and beware of covetousness, for a man's life-consistle not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth" (Luke xil, 15). From the voice of God and the thunderlings and the lightnings and the noise of the trumpet the people removed and stood afar off, and Moses alone drew near (verses 18-21). The law is holy and just and good (Rom. vil, 12) and sets forth the holiness without which no man can see God. It is so holy that no mere mortal man ever kept it or could keep it, for it brings us all in guilty before God and shuts our mouth, for by the law is the knowledge of sin (Rom. ill, 10, 20). "If there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law" (Gal. ill, 21). But it is evident that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, for as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse, for it is written, "Cursed is every one that contineth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them." But Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us. The law brings us all in guilty and leads us to Christ that we might be justified by faith (Gal. ill, 10-13, 24, 25). He alone of all, men kept the law perfectly in thought, word and deed and became the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth, but there always have been and still are those who, being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God (Rom. x, 3, 4). Such are all those who talk about salvation by character and the Golden Rule as their creed and the Sermon on the Mount good enough for them. They have not noticed that the first utterance of Christ on that occasion shuts their mouths, for where is their poverty of spirit while they talk of how good they are and how much good they do? Let us consider the giving of the law more fully, for in this series of lessons we have nothing in connection with the tabernacle, every whit of which utterter His glory and speaks of Him who is the true Tabernacle (Ps. xxix, 9, margin; Heb. vill. 2). The principal vessel in the tabernacle was the ark of the covenant, and it was made to contain the law, which Israel so quickly, broke, as we shall see in our next lesson. Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu and seventy of the elders of Israel went up into the mount, and it is written that they saw God and did eat and drink (Ex. xxiv, 9-11). This, in the light of John 1, 18, tells us that they saw the Son of God. Joshua seems to have waited somewhere, for we do not read of him again till Moses comes down, from the mount, after forty days and nights, with the tables in his hands. He had received full instructions concerning the tabernacle and its furniture. As they came down from the mount the people, who had promised to do all that God had said are seen worshiping the golden calf, and Moses, to impress upon them what they were doing, threw down the tables and broke them. By the command of the Lord he made two tables like the first, went up into the mount again and remained another forty days and nights, while God wrote again the ten words, but this time he was told to put them in the ark that they might be kept unbroken (Ex. xxiv. 9-18; xxiv. 1-3; xxii. 17; Deut. 1x. 10. 11, 17; x. 1-5). What the people could not do the ark did. Christ is our ark, and our mercy seat, and our priest, and our sacrifice. MEN TAKE NOTICE!

BURKE Foot Trouble Cured It is an absolute fact that most foot trouble is caused by overwork or strains on the muscles and ligaments of the foot that support the arch, carrying the weight of the body. These ligaments, muscles and tendons become tired and relaxed under the enormous work, allowing the arch to lower, cause tired aching feet, weak ankles, rheumatism, flat foot, cramped toes, bunions, callouses etc. Dr. Johnson's Foot Easer will relieve them at once. 603 West Park Avenue.

Willing to Give His Opinion. "We will be delighted," said a French journalist, interviewing George Bernard Shaw, "to know your opinion on the modern French literature and drama." "I dare say you would," was the reply. "My terms for a comprehensive answer to this modest question are 1,000,000 francs." So far as we know, the French interviewer never cared to give such a sum even in exchange for Mr. Bernard Shaw's literary opinion.-T. P.'s London Weekly.

Nothing Like Knowing Why. The sweet young thing was being shown through the Baldwin locomotive works. "What is that thing?" she asked, pointing with her dainty parasol.

"To make the engine tender," politely replied the resourceful guide.—Pennsylvania Punch Bowl. Lots of Synonyms. "In the lexicon of youth there is no such word as 'fall,'" observed the philosopher.

When cotton first came to Europe to make its principal centre in Lancashire it was the subject of the quaint and wonderful fable of the "Vegetable Lamb." The fluffy white fibers of the bursting cotton pod so resembled sheep's wool that travelers reported that in Tartary there grew a shrub the fruit or boll of which contained "withinno a lyttle Reaste in Flesche, in Bone and Bloode, as though it were a lyttle lambe with outer wool." After the lamb had been eaten the wool was made into cloth, continued this story, which is the earliest European account of the manufacture of cotton.—London Standard. A Mollified Subject. Nollekens, the sculptor, was a man of pretty wit and of neat resource in compliment. He had at one time for a sitter a woman of great beauty, but of an extremely nervous and impatient temperament. During her sittings she would constantly change her position, and with each shift of posture her expression changed. At last the sculptor's patience gave way. "Madam," he cried, "of what avail is your beauty if you will not sit still till I have reflected it in my model?" The sitter smiled with gratified vanity and was as motionless as a lay figure during the remainder of her sittings.—St. Louis Republic.

The Nearest Approach. An English tourist visited Arran and being a keen disciple of Izaak Walton was arranging to have a day's good sport. Being told that the cleg, or horselfy, would suit his purpose admirably for a lure, he addressed himself to Christy, the highland servant girl, "I say, my girl, can you get me some horsefiles?" "Nan, sir," said the girl, "but a wanse saw a coo jump ower a preshipice." Crime and Light It may seem strange, says a London paper, that murders could possibly increase the dividends of gas companies, but that happened at the time of the notorious "Jack the Ripper" crimes. It would be no exaggeration to say that the whole east end of London went in fear of death. These ghastly murders were all committed in dark spots, like unlit doorways, and the immediate result was that people used much more gas. The sale of candles and paraffin oil, too, went up amazingly all over the east of London. Grate raw potatoes to a fine pulp; add one pint water to one pound potato. Pass this liquor through a fine sieve and cloth. Let it remain in a vessel until the fine white starch settles to the bottom, then pour off the clear liquor, which is to be used for cleaning.

Professor Omori points out an apparent relationship between the frequency of earthquakes at Tokyo and the amount of rainfall and snowfall in northwestern Japan. Professor Omori does not, however, attempt to explain it. The periods when earthquakes are infrequent (but severe) coincide in a striking manner with those when rainfall is deficient at Nilgata and Akita, while the periods of frequent (but not violent) shocks coincide with excessive rainfall at those places. * Consumption Magnolia Remedy Company of the to humanity.

Gambetta's Lost Eye. Gambetta, the French patriot, had but one eye. How he came to lose the other in childhood is told by a writer: "It appears that Gambetta had such a dislike to going to school that he said to his father that unless he were taken from school he would poke one of his eyes out. His father insisted, on his remaining on at school, whereupon Gambetta did as he had threatened to do, and on his father remonstrating with him he said that if his father sent him back again to school he would poke the other eye out. Such a determined character was he that his father had finally to give way to him." Doy Labor In Belgium.

Saturday, September 13th, 1913 All Republicans are jubilant over the success of their congressional ticket at the special election in Maine on Monday. There were four candidates in the field. The Democrats made strenuous efforts to win and concentrated all of their efforts for that purpose. The smallness of the Progressive vote is noted. This election is only an indicator as to how the congressional election of next year will go, and the turning of the tide for 1916. The people will repudiate Democracy. That Savannah trip made a whole lot of people sick, not only figuratively, but really sick. Dr. Williams has been confined to his bed for more than a week; Rev. James M. Nabrit has been in bed several days with fever; and news comes from far-off Baltimore where Dr. Stoney is attending the Supreme Lodge of Knights of Pythias that he is down with the fever there. What is it, Savannah water?—Homo Sum in Georgia Baptist. Were it not for the fact that the reputation of the gentlemen is unsullied, we would state that they were only following in the footsteps of President Arthur, Admiral Dewey and many other distinguished visitors to our city. Savannah is famous for artillery punch Weather changes of the past few days indicate that the season for cold weather, which means cloaks and overcoats, wood and coal, is not too far away from us. It is a wise saying that a provident man always "looks out for a rainy day." He does not know what the future may bring forth, hence he provides or prepares himself to meet any emergency that may come about. A penny and sometime a dime dropped in the strong box or placed behind the iron bars of the vault of some reputable bank will go a long way toward keeping the wolf from one's door, if perchance he may be inclined to present himself there for entrance. Our advice is now as it always has been is to have our people look out for themselves in the future by saving some of their earnings in the present. In the midst of our pleasures, especially those of us who are so inclined, we wish to urge each and all of us to look out for to-morrow. The recent lynching in the state of North Carolina is a striking exemplification of the fact that eternal vigilance is the price of success. Proud of her tradition anent lynching and lawlessness, the old north state boasted of her great record of several years without a lynching within her border. Howevot, in an unguarded moment when all was peace and quiet within, the lynching bee broke from its quarters and before the people realized it, Judge Lynch had sought and secured the blood of a human being. To day North Carolina hangs her head in shame. Despite her grand record of the past, she feels that the world places her in the same category of crime with the other lynching states. And why? Because lawlessness lodged in the breast of only a few had opportunity to assert itself. It is true that North Carolina has accomplished much in her fight against mob law and violence. It is also true that she stands foremost among the southern states in ridding herself of the lynching evil. In behalf of law and order she has secured for herself an enviable position in the galaxy of states. Yet her very great record, achieved after many years of toil and watchfulness, is now trailing, as it went, in the dust, simply because a few lawlessly inclined individuals who dwells within her borders and call themselves citizens of North Carolina. felt that for a few brief moment, they could "take the law in their hands." The action of these few lawless individuals, rather heathens, has been a severe blow to North Carolina. The entire country realized this. And best of all, North Carolina realizes this herself. In offering a reward of many thousand dollars for the apprehension of the lynchers, North Carolina has shown that she does not mean to bow her head to the lawless element of the state. On the other hand, she has shown a determination to weed out root and branch everything and everybody that savor of lawlessness and savagery. Judging her by her record of the past, wedo not feel that she will stop short of the apprehension and severe punishment of every one who participated in the recent lynching. Here's hoping that in this she will be successful. Gibson·Peyton Nuptials In Tarboro, N. C., on Wednesday evening, Miss Josephine B. Payton of that city, and Mr. Robt. F.

CC A a alate a ite apie is Bae eS Cs ea ee a devel. we eb Shall We Have It? In the May issue of the Uplift, under the heading "For Negro Training," we called attention to the great need of an agricultural school for Negroes in Georgia. Since that time the legislature has convened and we note from the news items in our daily papers that a bill will probably be introduced to establish still another district agricultural school for the whites, but thus far no steps have been taken toward making provision for Negro youth. It seems that, largely on account of lax, unbusinesslike methods of taxation, the state is unable to meet its current expenses, not withstanding the fact that Georgia is one of the richest of the Southern states. We give below a list of educational institutions with appropriations for each as reported from the House Committee on Appropriations. This report has not been acted upon, but the probabilities are that the total amount for white institutions, if changed at all, will be larger than the amount fixed by the committee. For the maintenance and support of the State University at Athens, $52,050. For the University of Georgia, for the payment of interest on the land script fund, $6,314.14. For the payment of the annual interest due by the State to the University of Georgia, $8000. For the University of Georgia for the support and maintenance of the summer school at Athens for the white teachers of the State $5000. For the University of Georgia, for the support and maintenance of the school of Technology at Atlanta, $80,000. For the University of Georgia, for the support and maintenance of the Georgia Normal and Industrial college at Milledgeville $47,-500. For the University of Georgia for the support and maintenance of the North Georgia Agricultural College at Dahlonega, $21,500. For the University of Georgia, for the support and maintenance of the State Normal School at Athens, $47,500. For the University of Georgia for the support and maintenance of the State College of Agriculture at Athens, $100,000, of which amount $25,000 must be expended for extension work and $15,000 for Corn Clubs. For the University of Georgia, for the support and maintenance of the South Georgia Normal College at Valdosta, $25,000. For the University of Georgia, for the support and maintenance of the State Medical College, at Augusta, $30,000. For the University of Georgia, for the support and maintenance of the eleven district agricultural schools, $10,000 each. For the University of Georgia, for the support and maintenance of the School for Colored People at Savannah, $8000. It will be seen that the total appropriations from the state for institutions whose doors are open to only 55 per cent. of the State's population $522,964, while the total appropriation for Negro institutions is $8000. We do not give these figures for the purpose of instituting invidious comparisons, nor do we think the appropriations for the whites too large; indeed we believe a state as rich as Georgia could well afford to have the appropriations for these institutions nearer the million than the half million mark, and should be glad to see it so. We cannot, however, understand how our legislators and others in authority expect Georgia to make the showing that that all desire to have it make in educational and agricultural tables, so long as such meagre provision is made for 45 per cent., and that the most needy, of the population. We do not like to believe that there is any desire on the part of those in authority to keep the Negro in ignorance, but prefer to think that they are so much interested in the welfare of the white youth that the needs of the "brother in black" have simply been overlooked, and for that reason we call attention to this matter, and wish to state most emphatically that the Negroes of Georgia do need and are desirous of obtaining such instructions as is given the white youth in the institutions provided for them by the state. We are not, however, asking now for institutions corresponding in grade to the State University at Athens, the School of Technology at Atlanta, the State College of Agriculture at Athens nor the State Medical College at Augusta, but we do wish, and, we think reasonably so, that something be done by way of providing for the Negro's training similar to that given in the three normal schools and eleven district agricultural schools for whites at a cost of $230,000 a year. As a beginning both normal and agricultural training might be given in the same institution, though only a slight acquaintance with the Negro is required to know that several institutions devoted to the training of teachers and giving instructions in agriculture and home economics is one of the greatest needs of the Negroes, not only for their own sake, but for the sake of the State as well. The matter cannot perhaps be better summed up than by quoting sentences from an editorial in the Atlanta Constitution on another subject, but which bears with force upon this. "The society of his little world seemingly indifferent as to whether he rose or fell, blind apparently to the cardinal principle that not the humblest member can fail through its negligence without the responsibility pressing more or less upon all its members. Upon the surface the eternal mutual debt, the obligation existing between society and its smallest member, may appear altruistic. As a matter of cold fact the principle is at its basis economic and not sentimental or religious. The community that deliberately lets one of its members drift into misery, crime or indolence, blithely contending that it is none of its business, is simply laying up trouble and expenses for itself."—Fort Valley Uplift. Exchange of Courtesay. "This man who wants board on credit claims to be a foreign nobleman." "Show you any proof?" asked the proprietor. "Showed me a photograph of a castle." "Well, I have no objection to your showing him a photograph of a ham sandwich."-Kansas City Journal. Sweet Peas. The original ancestors of the sweet pea came from Sicily and Ceylon, and the first gardener on record as sending the seed to other growers was an Italian monk, Father Franciscus Cupani, who sent seed to England in 1609. SEE THINGS RIGHTLY. The mass of mankind will never have any ardent zeal for seeing things as they are. Very inadequate ideas will always satisfy them. On these inadequate ideas reposes and must repose the general practice of the world. That is as much as saying that whoever sets himself to see things as they are will find himself one of a very small circle, but it is only by this small circle resolutely doing its own work that adequate ideas will ever get current at all.—Matthew Arnold. London's Actors' Church. London Actors' Church Covent Garden is one of the sights of London, but few visitors go to see St. Paul's, Covent Garden, which has been called the "Actors' church," yet probably next to Westminster abbey and St. Paul's cathedral here is the church of greatest interest to the historian, for its famous dead number among them not only actors and dramatists, but famous people in every walk of life, Butler of "Hudibras" fame; Claude Duval, the highwayman; Lely, the painter; Macklin, the actor; Arne, the musician; Grinling Gibbons, the sculptor, are but representative of the celebrated folk buried in St. Paul's.—London Cor. New York Sun. Knife Not Used. "How did you happen to have old man Longwind on the program at your informal banquet?" "Well, he wasn't on the program, but somebody who was on couldn't come, so the old guy was asked to fill in." "What did he do?" "Not a thing but arise and speak for forty minutes." "Gee! Did he have his speech all cut and dried?" "No; it was only dried!"—Cleveland Plain Denier. Hoodwinkling Hubby Two women were coming into the city the other day from South Louisville. They boarded a crowded street car, and as they walked up the nile Mrs. Blank suddenly put up her hand and pulled down her vell. "Why on earth do you do that?" asked her friend. "Don't whisper a word," she replied. "My hubby is sitting up in the front of the car, and if he doesn't recognize me he may get up and give me his seat."-Louisville Times. The Talmud. The Talmud consists of the "Mishnah" and the "Gemara." The former is a somewhat ill arranged transcript of the "Oral Law" and is a book of no very great length. It was drawn up in its present form, though not written down, about the year 200 A. D. The Gemara may be roughly described as a sort of gigantic commentary on the Mishnah, but is a commentary of which enormous portions seem to have absolutely nothing to do with the text on which it comments.

Rather unexpectedly the slopes of Snowdon, a Welsh mountain only 8,560 feet high, have proven one of the wettest regions of the world. The average annual rainfall of the globe is about thirty-six inches, that of tropical Cherrapongee, Assam, is 610 inches, with an extreme of 905 inches in 1861, and that of Maranham, Brazil, 227 inches. Seathwaite, a little village of the English valley of Borrowdale, has claimed the third highest record. The meteorological office, however, has reports from thirteen Welsh stations, of which Lluchfa, at an altitude of 2,500 feet, -bowed the greatest European rainfall-247 inches—and eleven exceeded the 143 inches of Seathwaite. The Builders. "The Egyptians were the builders," said a contractor enviously. "No wonder their monuments will endure forever. Labor was nothing to them. As you would spend a cent on a newspaper, so would an Egyptian king put 10,000 men to work upon a temple. Labor, you see, cost nothing. A striking example of the Egyptian prodigality of labor lies in this fact: No fewer than 2,000 men were employed for three years in carrying a single stone, a stone of unexamined size, from Elephantine to Saka." The Treacherous Lioness. "Lionesses are far more dangerous than lions," said an animal trainer. "Their tempers are more uncertain. They are more treacherous. They are more wily. If a lion is in a bad humor he shows it. He growls and snarls and lashes his sides. You know what is in the wind and prepare accordingly. But a lioness in a bad humor is as affectionate as a girl. She brushes, purring, against your leg, and she minds you with the joyous alacrity of a good fox terrier. Then, as soon as your back is turned, whit—a yellow streak shoots through the air, and you are on your back, and she is at your throat. With all the cat tribe it is the same." A Lapland Wedding. Mr. F. H. Butler, who has traveled much in Lapland, is of opinion that that country affords a far more interesting experience for holiday makers than Switzerland. "A wedding I saw was the picture of happiness," he says. "The bride was attired in red, with a red silk scarf and tassels, white shoes, fur gaiters and red gloves. The wedding feast consisted of reindeer meat, marrowbones from the legs, reindeer tongues and reindeer cream and coffee.

A London school class had been accustomed to sing each afternoon a short hymn, one line of which ran, "Wenk and sinful though we be." On a new teacher taking charge she was puzzled at the children's very indefinite articulation of this line and on investigating found that nearly half the class had been rendering it, "We can sing, full though we be." 13. BECAUSE: The Standard Life Insurance Company's policy values rank A1 among Life Insurance Contracts. The most that can be said of any other contract is that "It is as good as the Standard Life Policy." There is nothing that can be better.

No obligation is required of its members that interferes with any duty they owe to God, their family or themselves, but all these duties which they owe to their Maker, to their family, and to their God must be discharged fully and completely. By this means, and this means only, are the standards of civilization advanced and humanity made better.—Missouri Freemason. Masons may be divided into two classes, first, those who have passed through the ceremonies, but having eyes have not seen and having ears have not heard the ideals brought to their attention, these are Masons in name only. Secondly, those into whose hearts have sunk deep the true precepts and who feel that Masonry means something to be carried into daily life, that it may be made more a life of love and service to their fellowmen, these and these only are the true Masons.—Square and Compass. THE SECRET8 OF MASONRY There has always been a great deal of talk about the 'secrets of Freemasonry and a good deal of speculation as to what takes place within the tiled precincts of the lodge. It would be a puzzle at the present time, to be able to figure out exactly what constitutes the secrets of Masonry. The location of a Masonic lodge room is known to every inhabitant of a town or city. The times of holding stated meetings are not only common knowledge, but are frequently posted in hotel lobbies and public waiting rooms. Every time a sack of flour is left at Widow Jones' back door, it is in the hands of the village gossip within thirty minutes after the deed is done. When the District deputy comes to pay an official visit, his picture is in the local paper, together with his Masonic record. When Father Brown, who has been a Mason for forty years, raises his son William the local paper devotes one whole page to the affair and the family pedigree. When John Smith goes wrong and his trial results in his being expelled, the incident is fully discussed at the afternoon meeting of the sewing circle, which meets the following day. When Richard Roe called John Doe a liar and the grievance committee compelled the beggarent brothers to make up and shake hands, the affair becomes the principal topic of interest in the local barber shops. "On the square" "on the level," "be a Mason and don't tell" are frequent expressions of the streets. At the present rate of dissemination of Masonic secrets, how long will it be until the street car conductor will hail the motorman with the sign of the twenty-third degree! What's the answer?—Illinois Freemason. HIGH IDEALS If we have high ideals we shall live good lives. "It is not in our stars, but in our ideals that our destinies lie. Freemasonry teaches us that we should labor to subdue our passions. Hatred, malice, lust and envy must never become our masters. To conquer one's self is the high ideal our order teaches. The man who has ruled his own soul has accomplished a greater work than one who has conquered a nation. Freemasonry teaches the equality of man and that the whole world is one great family. It has attracted the artist, the student, the poet the peasant, the statesman and the monarch. Its underlying and eternal principals and ideals have united men of every country and opinon and conciliated the truest friendship among them. Masonry is not a reformatory institution. Men should be Masons at heart, before they should be allowed to enter our portals. Temperence, prudence fortitude and virtue are all Masonic ideals. Kingdoms have arisen and fallen, monuments of man's greatness have crumbled into dust, ages of wars and revolutions have passed away, but Freemasonry notwithstanding has still survived, substantially unchanged in aim and end. The future of our fraternity depends entirely upon how loyal its members are to its ideals. If Masons are good men and citizens the influence of our order for all that is best in life will continue to ex- tend its ever-widening circles and with an influence wider than ever before. Freemasonry has always been the exponent of free thought and speech and it is the steadfast champion of political and religious liberty.-Royal A. Gove, in Masonic Voice-Review. WHY MASONS LAY CORNER-STONES In the present day and time why should Freemasons be chosen over others to lay the cornerstone of public edifices, built by the contributions or taxes of people, the majority of whom are not connected with, nor interested in the Order? Because Freemasonry recognizes the overruling providence of God; recognizes the immortality of the soul and the brotherhood of man. It is nonsectarian, nonpartisan, and enforces that rational homage to Deity due from the creature to the Creator. Its sole purpose is character building Its beautiful and magnificent, benevolent and charitable enterprises are but the manifestations of that spiritual character building becoming visible to the world, thus affording a common ground on which Hindoo. Mohammedan, Hebrew, Gentile and Christian may meet and know each other as men possessing kindred ideals, aspirations and hopes, which they each express in their own peculiar formulae. It is world-wide in its compass and free from citicism, so long as its devotees live up to the staddard set by universal Masonry. Hence it is most appropriate that the Masonic Order, the successor of ancient builders should be called upon to publicly celebrate a rite that has survived from the time of those ancient builders to the present day.—T. A. Hisey. Forty Sixth Anniversary of the 1st A. B. Church of Harris Neck, Lacey, Ga. Dear Mr. Editor: Please allow space in your columns to speak of our very splendid services from the 4th to 7th inst., commemorating the forty sixth year of the progress of our church. On Tuesday night, the fourth, the services' began with B. Y. P. U. night; the president, brother I. C. Baisden, Jr., master of ceremonies. There was a very impressive and inspiring program carried out including a short but helpful sermon by Rev. L. C. Delegal, the ex-pastor. Friday night was Womans Home and Foreign Mission night. The president, Sister Jannie Curry, was in charge. This service was a real spiritual feast. Lic. C. C. Dawley delivered a very practical and pointed sermon. The Sunday School was conducted by superintendants' E. W. Low and E. W. Thorpe at 10 o'clock Sunday morning. At 11 o'clock the anniversary services proper, were held with 7 of the organizers occupying the front seat. There are 2 others that still live, who were in bed sick. The pastor, Rev. I. J. Yancy, delivered the sermon using for his text I Cor. 9:24. "So run that ye may obtain." He was at his best and all were much encouraged to continue the Christian race. The communion was celebrated at 2 o'clock p. m. At 8 o'clock the services' began, it being mainly Sunday School night. Misses Queen Scott and Viola Wells, from Elm Grove church, Meridian, Ga., sang a sweet Duet. Mr. Alonza Thorpe and Mrs. Leola Mifflin also sang a beautiful duet, representing Friendship church. Two of our girls recited. Rev. Wm. Fisher of Mt. Pleasant, Ga., a special guest of the pastor, preached a stirring sermon from II Kings 4:24, "Drive, and go forward; slack not thy riding for me except I bid thee." At this service the house was packed to overflow. Quite a number of the members from Savannah, Brunswick and other places came here to join in the celebration. $64.00 was raised, and five grown young men joined for baptism, while two were restored. The church has had a wonderful revival along all lines under the leadership of our present pastor. E. W. Low, C. C. First A. B. Church West Broad and Bolton Streets The services were well attended Sunday. The pastor, Rev. Wm. Dunn, preached from Matt. 28:18-28, subject "The great commission service was held at 4:30 p.m. The B. Y. P. U. at 7 p.m. At night the pastor preached from John 3:18, subject, "Happiness and Doom." The 20th anniversary began Monday night the 8th and will continue to the coming Monday night. The public is invited to all these services. Doesn't Deserve Help.

CORRESPONDENCE SOLICITED [This matter must not be reprinted without special permission.] Some markets prefer a pure white egg and some those that are a rich brown. There seems to be no good reason for this difference except mere whim. Connecticut, for many years supposed to be quite outside the limits of the peach belt, this season gives promise of a yield of 1,000,000 baskets of this fruit, or 2,000 carloads. A hen is a small institution, but when she goes on a rampage in a neighbor's garden she is a larger factor in kicking up neighborhood ill will than anything we know of. Now that the fly killing campaign is in full swing it will be in order to keep fly poison out of reach of the little folks in the home. Many die yearly because of getting hold of it. Millet intended for use as a forage ration should be cut shortly after the blossoms appear and before the hard seed heads form. The hay will be the finer if the ground is seeded rather heavily. The reason for the shallow cultivation the last time through the corn is that by that time the lateral roots have spread a good deal, and setting the shovels deep would tear and destroy them. In one or two counties in central New York the tent caterpillars are so numerous that they have stripped fruit trees of all their foliage and are swarming over the ground in search of other green stuff. Twenty thousand pounds of Australian frozen beef were sold one day recently in New York city, the price paid for it being 1½ cents per pound less than the prevailing market price for American beef of equal quality. In many sections of the country the potato grower is this year freed from both his worst pests—bugs and blight. He isn't able to explain the situation on any scientific basis, but he's mighty thankful it's so, however. Effective work on the part of government forest rangers in the Chugach national forest reserve in Alaska recently resulted in extinguishing fires that threatened the 28,000,000,000 feet of lumber which the reserve is said to contain. --- A former Japanese student at the University of Wisconsin has lately purchased a Holstein bull in that state at a long price for shipment to Japan, there to become the head of a herd of dairy cows which this breeder intends to establish. There is little gain in waging a campaign against the different diseases from which the farm animals or poultry may suffer if one does not at the same time clean up and thoroughly disinfect the premisses whereon these same diseases have developed. Not in years have we seen the grosbeaks go after the green peas in the pod as hard as they have this season. This is doubtless due to the fact that there have been no potato bug larvae, which usually constitute one of the chief items in their bill of fare. A handy torch for burning out nests of the tent caterpillar is made by winding a coll of old rags or waste at the end of an iron rod and fastening this to a pole of some kind. Where the trees are not too large a handy and quick method is to do the job on horseback. --- Much may be done toward improving the quality of fruit at picking time by removing as soon as possible all fruit that shows defects of any kind. The nourishment that would otherwise be needed to ripen this imperfect fruit will thus be diverted to apples that are of good shape and free from disease. A couple of months ago the writer nalled up a second wren's house (a tin can with a small triangular hole cut in the end) a few yards from a can that was already occupied by a pair of the birds. They paid no attention to it, but now that their little ones have left the nest the parents have started housekeeping in the new quarters. A report recently published by the Canadian department of agriculture states that Dominion farmers lose $1,000,000 a year through merely leaving the male birds with the hens after the breeding season is over, about the middle of June, thus resulting in partially incubated eggs. If Canadian farmers suffer such a loss as this it is fair to assume that the logs to American farmers from this source would be several times as great. THE EGG LAYING CONTEST. The thirty-fifth week of the international egg laying contest being conducted at the Storms Agricultural college in Connecticut shows the English White Leghorns—Barron's and Cam's—still in the lead, with scores of 739 and 600 eggs, respectively. Mr. Cam's White Wyandottes hold third place, with 620 eggs; Foster's White Leghorns fourth, with 616 eggs, and Schmitz's Buff Leghorns fifth, with a score of 612 eggs. These are the only pens that have reached or passed the 600 mark. Following are the highest records attained by pens of the several breeds which have been entered in the contest: Barred Rocks, 496; White Plymouth Rocks, 526; White Wyandottes, 503; Buff Wyandottes, 896; S. C. R. I. Reds, 554; R. C. R. I. Reds, 527; Buff Orpingtons, 426; White Orpingtons, 484; Black Orpingtons, 348; Black Minorcares, 402; Blue Andalusians, 380; Anconas, 322; Buttercups, 160. There is little question that in this contest for practical results there are many pens of fowls making high records for eggs that would score low when it came to fine points and feathers and some pens that rate low in egg production that would rank relatively high according to usual poultry show standards. A VALUABLE GENERAL PRINCIPLE. The idea is all too common that the essential principles of dry farming, so called, have value only for the farmer who is in the dry farming or semiarid belt. This idea of frequent cultivation of the soil during dry weather to create a dust mulch so as to conserve the moisture present in the soil, which is the chief factor in dry farming, may on occasions of drought in sections where rainfall is usually sufficient be of the utmost value. During the present season there is little question that many fields of oats would have yielded from ten to fifteen bushels more per acre had the field been harrowed following the late May rains, in midafternoon before the grain reached ten inches in height. As it was, the last heavy rain packed the soil and the sun baked it, with the result that circulation of soil, air and moisture was interfered with and the growth of the grain greatly retarded. In the case of cultivated crops, like corn and potatoes, the same principle holds—that the dryer the weather the more frequent the cultivations should be for the purpose of maintaining the dust mulch. STUNTS FOR THE BOYS. The Playground Association of America has set some simple physical tests which the directors think ought to be met by some boys of given ages. Both town and country boys will be interested in these. For instance, it is expected of a boy twelve years old that he can chin four times, cover five feet nine inches in a standing broad jump and run sixty yards in eight and three-fifth seconds. Boys between this age and the high school are expected to chin six times, jump six feet six inches and run sixty yards in eight seconds, while boys of high school age should chin nine times, make a running jump of four feet four inches and run 220 yards in twenty-eight seconds. It would be interesting to know whether town or country boys could the more easily meet these tests. BEES SPREAD PEAR BLIGHT. BEES SPREAD PEAR BLIGHT. It is a matter of regret that, while bees perform a most useful function in the process of cross fertilization in different kinds of fruit trees, they are also one of the chief factors in a scattering of the fire or pear blight that for several years past has wrought such havoc in pear and apple orchards in different parts of the country. In one case where the blight had put in an appearance in a well known fruit growing section forty-five fruit spur infections were found in a single tree, and practically all of them were infections resulting from the visits of bees, whose legs and antennae had been smeared with the blight ooze from some holdover cases. LESS FRUIT THIS YEAR. According to the early summer crop report issued by the secretary of the Kansas Horticultural society, there will be considerably less fruit this year than last. The condition of the apple crop is 53 per cent as compared with 71 per cent last year at the corresponding time, pears show 40 per cent as compared with 6 per cent a year ago, while the condition of peaches is 23 per cent as against 53 per cent a year ago. While it will not hold in all instances, this slump in the condition of the three fruits named and of some others will be true not only for Kansas, but for a number of other states to the north and east of the Atlantic cosat. $1,000 NET PER ACRE A Missouri farmer, a member of the Ozark Fruit Growers' association, last year set out to see how large a crop of strawberries he could grow on one acre. This was put in the best of tilth and given a generous application of bonemeal and well rotted manure. He set the most vigorous plants he could get and gave thorough cultivation as well as spraying for fungous and insect pests. When he checked up on this acre he found he had picked 800 crates, which brought him an average of $1.75 per crate. This gave a gross return of $1,400 per acre. Deducting expenses of $400 leaves $1,000 net as his return from this one acre. J.C. Piigg PICTURE FRAMES We make a specialty of framing diplomas, marriage licenses and pictures of all sizes.
