The Savannah Tribune VOLUME XXIX POPE PIUS X DIES SUDDENLY POPE'S SISTER DIES FROM SHOCK OF HIS DEATH Whole World Grieves on Account Of Passing Away of Head of Catholic Church-Body Lies in State for Thousands to View-Plans to Elect New Pope Being Prepared. The whole world was shocked last Wednesday when the death of Pope Pius X of the Roman Catholic church was announced at the Vatican in Rome, Italy. Although it had been known that the venerable head of the Catholic church was suffering from an ailment of long standing it was generally thought that the present attack was a mild one and that he would shortly recover from it. However, late Tuesday night his condition became critical and it was observed by attendant physicians that the end was not far off and on the following evening he passed away. The sadness of the death of the Pope was accentuated Wednesday by the illness of his sister, Anna, which was brought on by grief over the death of the Pope and from which she died Thursday about noon. The body of the Pope lay in state in the Vatican from 7 to 8 o'clock Thursday and Friday mornings and was viewed by 'all classes of people and will be taken to St. Peters' where it will be viewed by the people. The funeral service which will be in the Sistine chapel and will be decided by the members of the sacred college will occupy nine days. Giuseppe Melchiorre Sarto, known as Pope X, was elected to Pontificate on August 3, 1903. He was born June 2, 1855 at Riese, in the Venetian provinces, of lowly parents, and from early youth his career was influenced by the village priest. At the age of twenty-five he was ordained priest in the Catholic church. In 1857 he had his first important parish at Salzano, where he remained for eleven years. At the age of forty, he was called to Treyiso as Chancellor of the diocese and shortly after this he was appointed professor of theology in the seminary. In 1884 he was crowned Bishop of Bantua. Leo XIII conferred upon him the title of "Roman Count" and in the consistory of June 1893 created him Cardinal. He was also appointed Patriarch of Venice by Leo XIII. He was one of Queen Margurita's confessors and was always friendly to the house of Savors, the ruling house in Italy. He was the candidate of Leo XIII as his successor and in the conclave struggles of July 1903 in which Cardinal Rampola, Leo XIII's secretary of state, lost by Cardinal Puzyna opposing him, Cardinal Sarto was elected after at first refusing to become the compromise candidate, being elected almost unanimously on August 4, and assumed the title of Pope Pius X. His pontificate was characterized by a spirit of modesty and by a strong religious feeling which made him choose as motto: "To restore everything to Christ." In the Vatican, while there were elegantly and gorgeously furnished rooms at his disposal, Pope Pius X chose modest apartments, further carrying out his desire for simplicity. He gave himself up entirely to his duties and was an indefatigable worker. Among the important reforms due to Pope Pius X were the restoration of iron clad discipline among the clergy and the Roman Curia. He was a man of great ability and very eloquent in his younger day. At his death he was eighty years old. --- Real Thrill Detective Stories One of the most interesting detective story series ever written is now running in the Magazine and Story section of the New York Sunday World. This is "Cleek of Scotland Yard," which has been a big hit in the motion picture shows. These stories are by T. W. Hanshew, author of "Cleek of the Forty Faces." Don't miss a real thrill. POPE Pope Pius X of Catholic Church, Died Wednesday Basebell, Fox Club vs Savannah Home Association On Monday the Fox Club and the Savannah Home Association will cross bats at the baseball park. The game promises to be interesting as well as amusing. The managers of the two teams, W. B. Butler of the Fox and Ed. R. Collins of the Savannah Home Association, are busy getting their men in form for the event. The game will be called at 4 o'clock and the price of admission will be 15 cents to any part of the park.

Dunbar Literary and Social Club The members of the Dunbar Literary and Social Club are being commended on every side for their high class oging on last Thursday to Daufuskie. There was no rowdyism of any kind on board and the crowd was a very representative one. There were no cross or harsh words uttered, no intoxicants used and no vulgar dances engaged in, during the whole trip. The officials and every body were well pleased with the behavior of this representative crowd of the younger set. The club is composed of youths between the ages of 17 and 22 Foreign Mission Board Secretary to Speak Mrs. Josephine Straghn, fiel secretary of the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, will speak at a meeting tomorrow afternoon at 8:33 o'clock at the First African Baptist church, West Broad and Bolton streets. The program which has been arranged for the after noon is a very interesting one most of the prominent Baptist ministers of the city being booked to take part. The musical feature of the program will also be interesting. Mrs. Straghn is a forceful talker and it is very probable Bradwell—Smoake Mr. Robert H. Bradwell and Miss Lizzie Gray Smooke were married on Wednesday evening of last week at the home of the latter's brother, 1020 West 37th St. The ceremony was performed by Rev. R. V. Sutton. Miss Jenne G. Murry was bridesmaid and Mr. Fred McDoughal best man. The wedding march was played most beautifully by Miss. Eliza Duncan Hill. Those present were Misses Minnie Scott, C. Pitchard, Annette Roberts, Jenna G. Murry, Mesdames Lottie Robinson, Lulah Black, Katie Pinkney, Martha Reddy, Amie B. Fields, S. Fantroy, Rosa Murphy; Messrs Sam Batey, J. B.

He was a member of the First Union Baptist Church of Daufuskie and assistant superintendent of the Sunday school and was useful in his church and community. He was a member of the Knights of Pythias in this city and was well known here. For several years he ran the Quarantine launch and he was also among the best trappers of the island. His funeral ceremony took place at the church and was conducted by his pastor, Rev. R.H. Thomas, with the assistance of Rev. R Bryan, a member of the same church. He is survived by his young wife, Mrs. Silvia Ficklin, two brothers, Moses Ficklin and Francis Ficklin, and his three sisters, Lizzie Myers, Maria Hudson and Julia Moy. Installation The Ladies Progressive Association held their annual installation on Wednesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Elizabeth O'Neil, Bowen street. The parlor and dining room were beautifully decorated with cut flowers and potted plants. The officers were very impressively installed by Rev. H. B. Butler, after which the following program was rendered: solo Mrs. J. A. Stewart; paper, "Punctuality," Mrs. C. Heyward; duct, "Sunshine and Roses", Mrs. J. C. Woodruf and Mrs. E. R. Dennis; recitation, "Don't look for flaws," Mrs. F. Mason. The program was well rendered and the participants were highly applauded. Mrs. E. R. Dennis and Rev. Butler led the guests to the dining room where refreshments were served. The officers are: Mrs. E. R. Dennis, president; Mrs. Carrie Heyward, vice president; Mrs. Frances Mason, secretary; Mrs. Sarah Nelson treasurer; Mrs. L. A. Middleton, chairman finance; Mrs. Elizabeth O'Neil, chairman sick committee; Mrs. Anna Jones, chaplain; Mrs. Catherine Maxwell, clerk of order Evangelical Ministers' Union. The Union met as usual on Tuesday, Rev. P. F. Curry, presiding. Sermonic reports were made. All members are urged to be out next Tuesday. NUMBER 48 KNIGHTS OF DAMON MEET KNIGHTS OF DAMON MEET UNIFORM RANK MADE FINE SHOWING MONDAY Several Out-of-Town Delegates At Convention—Appreciable Increase in Membership of Order—All Old Officers Except one Re-elected—Order Goes to Charleston Next Month. The Knights of Damon met on Monday in their eighth annual session at Mechanic hall in what was probably one of the most beneficial meetings known to the organization. There were several out-of-town delegates present and a harmonious spirit seemed to prevail throughout the session. On Monday afternoon the uniform rank under command of Major Jerry M. Suares paraded the principal streets of the city and made a fine showing. There were six companies in line, headed by the Knights of Damon band. The parade terminated at the hall where the convention was in session. The progress of the order during the past twelve months has been very gratifying to the members, the numerical strength being doubled both in the subordinate lodges and uniform ranks. In addition, three juvenile companies have been formed, which were seen in the parade Monday. Supreme Commander Wesley Millen presided at most of the grand lodge session, Henry Jackson, senior commander, and C. A. Coffee, of Charleston, junior commander, relieving him occasionally. At the election of the officers Thursday, all of the old officers with the exception of one, who did not run, were re-elected, Dr. E. M. Pinckney elected secretary being the only new officer. The convention adjourned Thursday afternoon and at night a banquet was held at the hall. On the 7th of next month the local companies will go to Charleston by boat to take part in the annual prize drill. A spirited contest is looked for and a fairly large crowd of friends will probably accompany the companies on the trip. Second Baptist Church On the second Sunday in August the services at both hours were filled with deep interest and impression. The new pastor, Dr. Pinson, conducted the services in a way that reflected credit on himself, and to the satisfaction of his hearers. On the third Sunday Rev. Gordon, a member of the church, and minister of the gospel, preached an interesting sermon. Tomorrow Dr. J. A. Pinson will fill the pulpit, instead of the fifth Sunday as had been previously arranged At mid night on the second Sunday in August, after preaching all day at the Second Church and while waiting for his train at the Union station, a pick pocket went through his clothes and relieved him of all the paper money that had been paid him. The thief has been identified and trial set for Monday. Thus it can be seen why Rev. Pinson will be in the city a week earlier. All members are requested to bring twenty-five cents for the National convention. Schedule to B. M. C. Changed Schedule to B. M. C. Chargen On account of arriving at Boston to the Old Fellows' B. M. C. earlier than was at first arranged so as to be able to attend the opening exercises on Sunday Sept. 13th and arranging other business that will demand our attention prior to the convening of the business session Monday, the schedule has been slightly changed and instead of leaving here on Saturday Sept. 12th, we will leave over Southern Railroad Friday Sept. 11th at 12:10 p. m. All delegates are requested to purchase their tickets on the 10th or morning of the 11th at the city ticket office, No. 30 Bull street corner of Congress. The north Georgia delegation will leave Atlanta at 9:00 p. m. on same date as above stated and will join us at Charlotte, N. C. Transportation committee, Dr. B. W. S. Daniels, C. W. Alexander, Ed. H. Burke Farm and Garden DOCTORING SICK TREES. Tree Surgery as a Science Every Year More Generally Appreciated. [Prepared by United States department of agriculture.] A cavity in a decayed tree is something like a cavity in a decayed tooth. If an unreliable tree surgeon who has been called in to save the tree only partially removes the diseased part of the wood, uses no antiseptic coatings in the cavity and fills it up with cement the tree is no more cured than is a person whose decayed tooth has not been properly filled by a dentist. The only difference is that after the tree cavity has been covered, if the work has not been properly done, the tree has no way of making its trouble known except by further decay. Within the last decade there has been a great increase in demand for ```markdown ``` A TREE PATIENT. surgeons to repair decaying shade trees, but the possibilities of practicing fraud in this profession like the instance just cited have tempted so many unreliable people to dabble in the science that tree surgery has fallen somewhat into disrepute. As in all professions, there are reliable and unreliable men and firms competing for contracts in tree surgery. In recent years so many occasions have arisen when property owners felt the necessity of calling in commercial tree surgeons to attend to their trees that there are now numerous firms, both honest and dishonest, engaged in the work. Usually tree surgery is practiced in connection with some nearly related line, but often it is taken up as a business of itself. When a blight such as the chestnut bark disease infects the trees of a district the community or individuals in it will often spend considerable money to control ravages which may rob the whole district of its trees. An affection like the chestnut bark disease is contagious. It requires scientific knowledge of the disease to know whether an affected tree should be destroyed at once or is worth treating. It requires scientific training to understand the manner of growth of the fungi causing the disease and what treatment is best. Many individuals who have had faith in tree surgery have lost it through following the advice of unreliable tree surgeons who claimed to be able to diagnose a case, but whose main interest was to collect a good sum of money for their work. Besides the careless filling of decayed cavities in trees, there are other practices of certain so called "tree surgeons" that do the trees more harm than good. Many of these "surgeons," as well as the people who employ them, do not realize the danger arising from fresh injuries to a tree. The tree owner should realize that prompt attention to fresh injuries will largely do away with the need of tree surgery fifteen or twenty years hence. The tree surgeons must realize that if they make fresh injuries in the living bark when treating decayed portions they are laying the tree open to more dangers of infection that will result in further decay. Just as a person is subject to infection through cuts and scratches, trees are rendered subject to infection by having their living bark torn. Notwithstanding this, many tree surgeons use pruning hooks and climbing spurs and cut fresh gashes in the tree. To break off small dead branches a workman may use a long pruning hook as though it were a club. In doing so the hook usually causes injury to the young bark near by. Every new wound may furnish a new point of entrance for decay, even though the old dead branch may have been removed. The use of climbing spurs should be particularly avoided on trees in vicinties where there is a contagious infection. They simply render the treated tree all the more liable to catch the disease which is "in the air." All properly equipped firms of commercial surgeons should have ladders that will reach forty or more feet into a tree. Ladders, ropes and rubber soled shoes will allow a man to reach practically every part. Reliable estimates indicate that it takes somewhat longer (perhaps 25 per cent on an average) to do work on a tree when these are used instead of climbing spurs, and this is one reason why many firms that value remuneration more than reputation use the spurs. AERIAL NAVIES NOW REALIZE Comparative Value of Dirigible and Aeroplane In Warfare. IT is the opinion of some experts that the balance of power in the great European struggle is in the air fleets of the different contending countries—this for the reason that no land or marine maneuvers can be accomplished successfully as long as aeroplanes and airships are able to hover out of reach of an enemy's guns and report back by wireless or by fast scout machines just what is being done. Also the destructive power of these machines is to be taken into consideration. One of the most remarkable prophecies in literature is that of Alfred Lord Tennyson in his "Locksley Hall." The famous English poet realized in prevision the possibility of the conquest of the air. Tennyson foresaw aerial warfare when he wrote: For I dipt into the future, far as human eye could see; Saw the vision of the world and all the wonder that would be; Heard the heavens fill with shouting, and there rain'd a ghastly dew From the nations' alry navies grappling in the central blue. The nightmare of England on the outbreak of war was the attack from the air by Germany's fleet of colossal war air craft. For several years the realization of this possibility has spurred the English to increased effort in the upbuilding of their air craft arm of defense. In the war archives of Germany are complete plans for aerial attacks on both Paris and London. Details for such attacks have been figured out with Metz as the base. For an attack on London they calculated upon leaving Metz as darkness falls, crossing the ```markdown ``` TYPES OF AEROPLANE DESTROYERS. channel at a height of 8,000 feet. Under ordinary circumstances London would be gained before midnight. Then the bag would be dropped to 3,000 feet and the work of destruction begun. Its nitroglycerin cartridges could render London helpless in a few hours. The destruction and havoc would be appalling. Furthermore, the English capital is said to be inadequately protected with searchlights with which to detect a night attack. Attacks on Paris have been outlined from the same base—Metz. Paris is better protected by sky searchlights than London. One question which only actual aerial warfare will decide is that of the superiority of aeroplane or dirigible. This is a much mooted question. France has pinned her main faith on the aeroplane, Germany on the dirigible. Alfred W. Lawson, editor of Aircraft, who recently furnished the war department with a table of figures showing approximately the aerial strength of various nations, compares those two types as follows: "Which of the contending forces has the strongest air fleet and what is the relative value between an aeroplane and a dirigible in war are interesting questions. Some of the aeronautical authorities contend that the aeroplane will have the advantage in an air fight; while others put their faith in the dirigible, particularly the Zeppelin rigid type. "There are many points in favor of both types of air craft. The Zeppelin has an approximate lifting capacity of about fifty tons and is capable of staying up in the air continuously for more than forty-eight hours. It is able to cover more than 1,200 miles with a war load and is capable of hovering over any particular point. It can carry a more powerful wireless outfit than an aeroplane and also more men, guns and ammunition. It is able to rise to a height of about 10,000 feet, which is considerably higher than necessary to keep out of the way of land batteries, in less time than a heavier than air machine. Its speed will run from fifty to sixty miles an hour. "On the other hand, the aeroplane can climb higher than the dirigible and fly at greater speed. The most modern Youthful Members of Newport's Smart Jet. 20 Copyright by American Press Association. Newport, R. I., as nearly everybody knows, is where the fashionable folks spend their time in summer. And, of course, there are lots of young people there who in time will be the leaders of society, although now they are simple little children enjoying themselves at the seashore. In the social life of Newport the little folks take very little part, although they are permitted to play on the sand and in the breakers that roll up on the beach. Recently a camera man was present at a social function at the famous Casino and snapped some of the little folks as they watched a game of tennis. The two youngsters shown in the picture are Miss Frances Mills and her brother, Master J. Mills, children of Mr. and Mrs. Ogden Mills of New York and Newport. Game of Bricks. Draw two lines fifteen feet apart, then divide the boys into two companies, allowing each player a piece of brick or square wood that can be easily thrown. Each player on one side throws his brick, trying to come as near as possible to the line on the other side. The one farthest from the line sets up his brick on the line and the one nearest standing on the opposite side pitches at it. If he fails to knock it over he sets up his brick and the other boy pitches at it. If he succeeds he picks it up, goes back to the line, pitches it again near the other brick, hops over it and kicks his brick near that of his companion. Then he must pick up his brick and carry it successively on his head, on each shoulder, on his back, on his breast (walking), in the bend of his knee (hopping), in between his legs (shuffling). Each time-starting at the line and proceeding to the other brick and knocking it over. Finally he marks a square including the brick and about eighteen inches square, and if he can hop over this he is declared a winner. If he falls in any, one of the "stunts" he must wait his turn, but can then begin at the point where he failed. Owls: Queer Home. A pair of solemn little brown owls have made their home in a strange place on the farm of a certain English fruit grower. They have laid their eggs in the furnace of a movable boiler used for washing beehives. The fire has not been lighted recently, but the boiler is in daily use, and when the owls are "at home" they do not mind this at all. They enter and leave their home by means of the small iron chimney attached to the copper. Nature lovers are intensely interested in this species of owl because it is not native to England. It originally was brought from Spain. The little owl files by day as well as by night. Game of Rimes. Two words that rime, as "game" and "name," may be chosen. Each person is required to write four lines in rime, as— I played a game. Without a name. I won no fame— But who's to blame? There can be a great deal of fun in this game, and it is really surprising what really clever rimes are sometimes made. OF NATIONS POET'S VISION Air Craft May Be Deciding Factor In Europe's Struggle. aeroplanes are armored and carry one rapid fire gun. The authorities who favor the aeroplane claim that a machine of that type will be able to ram a dirigible by fling into it at great speed and thus destroying an airship which costs $250,000 and carries twenty-five people with a machine that costs $10,000 and carries from one to two people. The adherents of the Zeppelin airship, on the other hand, maintain that owing to its ability to carry heavier guns it will be enabled to put ```markdown ``` A FRENCH AIRSHIP. out of commission any number of aero planes before they can get within striking reach. The latest Zeppelins are mounted with guns on all sides, bottom, top and either side, so that they can engage an enemy from any angle. "In figuring out the strength of the opposing forces, with England, France and Russia on one side and Germany and Austria on the other side, it seems to me that the aerial contending forces are very nearly equal in strength, although it is just possible that owing to the tremendous advantage Germany holds with its great Zeppelins Germany and Austria may be considered slightly in the lead. During the past ten years Germany has expended approximately $100,000,000 to produce its ```markdown ``` FRENCH AEROPLANE WITH MOUNTED GUN great war air fleet, while it has cost France approximately $60,000,000 for the same purpose." On one question the experts appear to be agreed, and that is that height will be the governing force in any aerial battle. An aeroplane, even with the advantage of a hundred yards, might destroy a dirigible more easily than the dirigible could destroy an unarmed force below. A number of light guns have been invented which can be fired from aeroplanes, the gunners and pilots being protected from rifle fire by the armor of the machines. Also special guns have been invented for firing from the earth upon flying machines. Bombs intended to be dropped have now been standardized and provided with rotary tails, which make possible much more accurate throwing. A bomb now in use by the French aviation corps contains a small gasoline tank with mechanism which explodes it on contact, and it has been found extremely valuable for the starting of conflagrations. For the first time in the history of aviation the general practical value of air craft in war is to be proved. Italy's operations in the air when she fought Turkey were of no real value, for the Italians merely dropped bombs over the tented encampments of semicivilized Moors. This new branch of the military service has now its opportunity to prove its value, and no one knows all the possibilities that the air fighter has before him. Arrive L ave 15 pm.

It was not finished, however, until 1865, during the reign of Napoleon III., to whom Paris is indebted for much of its grandeur. Luna and the Tides There is little room for doubt about the theory that the tides are due to the moon's action upon the surface of the water. Of course there are other influences—the sun, for instance, exercising no mean force upon the tides—but the chief influence is attributable to the moon. To be sure, there is hardly any theory that is not objected to by somebody, but the theory that tidal action is due mainly to the pull of Luna may be accepted "without a reasonable doubt"—New York American. Golden Horseshoes. Roman writers inform us that Commodus caused the hoofs of his horse to be gilded. Nero when he undertook short journeys was always drawn by mules that had silver shoes, and those of his wife, Poppaea, had shoes of gold. From a passage in "Dio Cassius" there is reason to think that the upper part only was formed of those noble metals or that they were perhaps plated out of thin slips. When Boniface, marquis of Tuscany, one of the richest princes of his time, went to Beatrix, about the year 1033, his whole train was so magnificently decorated that his horses were shod with silver. The nails were even of the same metal. Why. Indeed? The Doting Mamma (after the brilliant plano solo) -My daughter has been practicing for six years.

"For Making Oil From Sunflower Seeds." "For Importing a Number of Large Jackasses From Spain." "For a Wheel of Perpetual Motion" and, most extraordinary of all, "For an Undertaking Which Shall In Due Time Be Revealed."

Once he swam his horse across a river and stopped at a house near by to borrow a bucket. "I want to water my boss down here at the river," he explained. On another occasion he approached a neighbor and surprised him with the offer of a trade. "I'd like to swap my three big pigs," he said. "for three little pigs." "What's that?" demanded the astonished neighbor. "Well, you see," answered the other, "my pigs have got too big for their pen." Let Me Paint That House and Save You Money!

They were leaning over the line fence, these ladylike neighbors, and they seemed to be having a heated argument. "How do you know it is so?" asked one lady. "I said it was so, didn't I?" the other came back coldly. "Uh-huh, you did. And I suppose it's your idea that whatever you say goes." "Well, if I say it to you it does—it goes all over town."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. All the Bank's Fault. Mrs. Barrows was worried. That fact was evident to her husband, although she endeavored to maintain a cheerful manner. Before the evening meal was over, however, he discovered the cause of her anxiety. "Will," said she. "I am very much afraid that my bank is in a bad way." "How foolish, Mabell. Don't let that cause you a moment's worry. Why. It's one of the strongest financial institutions in the state. Whatever got that idea into your head?" "Well, it's very strange," replied Mrs. Barrows, still unconvinced. "They've just returned a check of mine for $40 marked 'No funds.'"—Harper's Magazine. Proved His Bravery. One evening I was seated upon the crowded roof garden of the Palace hotel in Shanghai, safely within the international settlement, watching the fires which were numerous in the Chinese city and listening to the battle and a dissertation by an authoritative looking fellow guest in the hotel during which he had just made the statement that he could take the arsenal with a corporal's guard of his fellow nationals when a shell screamed close over our heads and burst in the public garden along the bund Others followed it. We all bolted for the elevators, but the armchair tactician was the best sprinter and beat us all to it.—Bartlett G. Young in World's Work. After the Battle. A naval engagement with an odd sequel was the battle off Portland. Mc. between the American ship Enterprise, 16 guns and 102 men, and the British ship Boxer, 14 guns and 100 men. The Enterprise was commanded by Lieutenant Burrows and the Boxer by Captain Blythe. The battle was on Sept. 4, 1812, in the bay not far from Portland, and resulted in the capture of the Boxer, both commanders being killed. The two vessels were brought into Portland on Sept. 7. The bodies of the two commanders were rowed ashore by sailors of both ships and after a public funeral service were buried side by side in the village cemetery. Philadelphia Press. Aroused Her Curiosity After All. "Don't want any," said a housekeeper from her second story window to a street vender whose covered wagon was standing a few steps away and who had just pulled the bell. "Don't want any what?" grusly asked the vender, who hadn't had even a chance to tell what his wares were. "What have you got?" asked the housekeeper, whose curiosity was getting the better of her annoyance. "Oh, never mind. You don't want any. Glt up, Bob!" "New, I wonder what that exasperating man is selling, anyhow!" she exclaimed as the wagon disappeared around the corner.—Exchange. Ladies First. Here is a little story of the late Admiral Fremantle, told by Dr. Ernest Young in his book of travel sketches entitled "From Russia to Slam." When the steamer anchored off Canton the guides, as is their custom, boarded her at once. The admiral and his friends chose their guide and prepared to follow him. The admiral was about to descend the ladder and get into a native sampan when the guide pushed him back, saying: "Ladies first." "Oh, that doesn't matter," said the admiral. "I'm an old man."

Delcasse Has Had a Varied Experience and Has Long Opposed Germany. Theophile Delcasse, now the French minister of war, could be described as the incarnation of French revenge toward Germany. He is the son of a peasant of the Pyrenees and became a newspaper reporter in Paris when he reached his majority, which happened to be just at the close of the Franco-Prussian war. Writing brilliant articles on democracy for starvation wages, he attracted the attention of Gambetta, who needed an editor for his paper, Republique Francaise. Delcasse took the position and his political fortune was made. He was ap- [Image of a man in a suit with a tie and glasses. The background is plain white. The man's face is centered, and he has a mustache.] THEOPHILE DELCASSE pointed minister of colonies in 1894 and minister of foreign affairs in 1893. For seven years after that prime ministers came and went, but Delcasse stayed on. He was too great a man to leave out of any cabinet. In 1905, when France and Germany were adjusting their differences over Morocco, the kaiser did not like the defiant attitude of the French foreign minister. Germany demanded his resignation. The alternative was war. France was not prepared to go to war. Her army was deficient, her navy obsolete. Delcasse had to put his political head upon the guillotine. Subsequently Delcasse was brought again into the cabinet as minister of marine, but again German influence was brought to bear against him and the resignation of Delcasse was brought about. He was appointed by President Poincare ambassador to Russia, where he remained only a year. Recently he was called back to the cabinet as minister of war. MILES ON MODERN WARFARE Results, He Affirms, Will Stagger the Wildest Imaginings of Mankind. That wireless telegraphy and aeronautics are destined to prove the most destructive in the present European crisis and may do away entirely with the modern battleship, if not the massing together of great armed forces of men on land, is the opinion of General Nelson A. Miles, U. S. A., retired. "The genius of man has solved the problem of the navigation of the air," said General Miles in a recent interview. "The airship is now in use by all the countries engaged in the present conflict. The result cannot be anticipated, as the test has not been made. But the crisis is on. "The science of aviation has undoubtedly developed the most daring body of men ever engaged in any en- [Image of a man in a tuxedo with a bow tie]. GENERAL NELSON A. MILES. terprise. This has been clearly demonstrated in every civilized country of the earth. Assuming, then, that the courage and skill of the aviators of the contending nations may be equal, the results will be determined the same as was the case in the use of the breech loading rifle, the machine guns, the high power guns, the steel armored ships and the Dreadnoughts. "I do not know how long this war will last, but at all events I am satisfied from close study of, the improved implements in use that the result will stagger the wildest imagination of mankind. In the old days, when it was a question ofighting on land or on the water, conditions were entirely different. But the wireless, the aeroplane and the dirigible have now brought into play new elements whose importance cannot be estimated at this time."

Power lies outside of it, and entirely independent of it, in all truly valuable lives.

"I suppose that most people," said a barber, "would consider plying the shears and razor as comparatively easy work; they would not expect to find barbers men of muscle. "The fact is that standing all day and even in the easier" parts of his work using his arms all day in various positions the barber keeps his muscles in constant exercise, while in such operations as shampooing and massage he is called upon for the exertion of downright strength. "He may not have the muscle of a man always in strict training, but I think you would find that, as a rule, the barber is no weakling."-New York Sun.

LATEST[STYLE SILVER CARRIAGE FOR HIRE 605 WEST BROAD STREET Johnson Undertak —COMB The Royall Under (Inco Appeal of the Hymn. What constitutes the appeal of the popular hymn? "Pilgrims of the Night." by Father-Faber, has been as popular as any hymn of the past century, and one has to confess to a lump in the throat when it is sung. Nor is it merely on the sentimentally inclined that the hymn has effect. Froude records overhearing it in Hyde park one Sunday evening, when Carlyle, with deep emotion, bade him come away, as he could never hear those words without desiring to weep. Yet I have still to meet the person who can give a clear interpretation of what is meant by Faber's appealing lines.—London Chronicle. RELIABILITY. Try to be reliable.

Of all peculiar sights I think that, that of a moose eating grass is the most extraordinary. The neck is so short and the legs are so long that the animal usually kneels in eating grass. True, it does not attempt it very often, for grass is by no means a staple with it, but even a moose likes a change of diet. The appearance of this huge and awkward creature in this devotional attitude is not only interesting, but really laughable.—St. Nicholas.

Or- ganized not many months ago by some of the leading and most successful business men among us, the League has gone about its business ina way that has elicit- ed favorable comment from every side There is no denying the fact that there bas been an awak- ening along business lines among our people since the Negro Busi- ness League has been started among us. More aad better bus- iness has been noted by nearly every member of the local organ- ization since the organization of the League. As a result, more of our deserving young people have beon able to secure employ- ment from their own people. This is indeed gratifying and is indicative of the fact that there isa great deal that our people can do for themselves tf they will only work together, having con- fidence in the meantime in those of us who are attempting to guide their destinies. For the past several weeks, grand lodge sessions of the ya- rious Negro secret orders have been held in variops parts of the country and especially the south. The next few weeks will witness the end of the holding of these granu lodge conclaves. To the average Negro, these annual grand lodge sessions are of first importance. During the year, with much ado, they prime them- selves for the occasions and there is much sorrow in their camp if circumstances so shape them- selves that they are not permit- tad to attend these sessions. And, too, with theaverage Negro, his lodge ranks second in import- ance only to his church. His very heart and soul are wrapped up in the order or orders that claim his membership. By his grand lodge officers as well as its members, he expects such con- structive legislation during the grand lodge sessions as will bring peace, happiness and prosperity to the members throughout the entire jurisdiction. How disap- pointed must he be then at the conclusion of a grand lodge ses- sion, to note that the time of the session was used in unnecessary wrangling, the raising of need- less points of order and the like, when the same should have been given over to legislation for the good of the order. We have it on good authority that in several instances of grand lodge sessions, wrangling and dissension to the exclusion of all other matters, have been the order of the day. If so, this is not as it should be anda stop should be put to it. These grand lodge sessions have not as their purpose or object the furnishing of an opportuni- ty for its members to sharpen their wits at each other's expense or togiyean exhibition of their ability as parliamentarians. On the other hand, the purpose of a grand lodge session ought te be to enact such laws as will benefit the members of the order and in- spire them to more constructive endeavers in the future. The building of more and better homes, the education of the young people. the opening of business enterprises and the like should certainly be stressed at these grand’ lodge sessions. The Tribune is indeed happy te know that in some instances such eonstructive matters as before indicated are emphasized at, some of the grand lodge sessions of out people. Would that others of our orders would do the same Wesincerely hope that the time js not far distant when every one of our grand lodges will awaker toasanse of their duty and re sponsibility along lines of con structive legislation as abov mentioned.

Vulgar Dancing Condemned To the Editor of the Tribune: Reading in your issue of last week the editorial on dancing an’ your suggestion of the curtail- ment of the present form, es- pecially the way the late dances are being interpreted in the halls nN mage LC a el ania et a eS pT for the last ten years I have been a member of some musical or- ganization that furnishes music for dancing. I have seen the coming in and the outgoing of new dances, as you say, some and the majority of the new dances are used far different from theit original intention, but if one could place himself in the position that 1 am ‘so often placed in it will be seen just. who thy de- graders of the dances are. When a dance is being given and the music begins. I have ac- tually céunted five forms of danc- ing by the same selection of mu- sic and just as you are able to count five different forms of danc- ing you will see five different sets of people. I have played for ‘dancé’Swhere you could not see one couple but what was dancing decently, and some of the people who were at this dance would go to another dance and would dance in the most degraded form, so I ‘gleam from that, it is only left with two parties, the ones who give the dance, and the individual dancers, I have made a special study of why such dancing is carried on espécially when these late dances are designed in a way that the world is crazed about them and the true fact is this, the dancers do not know the late dances, and in substitution for the same, why some of our dancers go to the ex- treme as far as vulgarity is con- cerned, and I must say that this extremity is dué largely to the wonien and girls; because if they would not allow the privilege of the vulgar dancing the men would not attempt it. The tango, the maxixe, the hes- itation. and the merry widow could be called clean dances and were so intended and some danc- ers dance these as decently as they do the old two step, waltz and lanciers; but it is the don’t care girls and boys who carry these to the extreme. Dancing has become the leading act in entertainments, especialy since the new dances came out, and is popular among the old as well as the young, in fact, every body seems to like the art, then let us continue to have dancing but on a decent scale. * Let us not put in to break up dancing by any means because it! is impossible; but let everybody who gives a dance do as the Metronome orchestra dves, de- clare war against vulgar dancing and the battles will be of but a short duration. =~ .

Text of the Lesson, Matt. xxii, 1-14, Memory Verses, 8, 9—Golden Text, Luke xiii, 34—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. This parable of the marriage of the king's son is found only in the gospel by Matthew and sets before us both the present phase of a rejection of the invitation and also a glimpse of the consummation, but chiefly the former. Miss Habershon says in her book on the parables that they cover the whole period from the first advent of our Lord Jesus Christ in incarnation to His second advent in glory. His incarnation is implied; His life, ministry and rejection are described, and His death is prophesied, but most of the pictures represent the time of His absence or the epoch of His return. They were not merely the words of the man Christ Jesus, a great teacher and a God sent prophet. They were, like all that He said, the words of His Father given Him to speak, for He said, "Whatsoever I speak, therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak" (John xii, 50). He taught also "through the Holy Spirit" (Acts 1, 2; x, 38), so that in all His teaching we have the Trinity, even as in the parable of Luke xv we see the love of the Son, the Spirit and the Father. Some aspects of the lesson today, such as the treatment of the invitations, are similar to those of the great supper of Luke xiv, 16-24. The king and His Son and the servants are suggestive of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The words "Behold, I have prepared, * * * and all things are ready," of verse 4 indicate that "salvation is of the Lord" (Jonah ii, 9), from first to last. Just as in Gen. ill, 21, the Lord God provided redemption clothing without any help from Adam and Eve, as neither Noah nor Moses nor David nor Solomon had any say whatever in the design or construction of ark or tabernacle or temple, as the disciples helped nothing in providing the food for the five thousand, so the purpose and the working of it out in the whole matter of redemption and the kingdom are wholly of God. Nothing can be added to the full preparation which He has made. See also Isa. lix, 16. It is ours to heed the invitation, "Come unto the marriage" (verse 4), and to accept thankfully all that the king has so bountifully provided. The abundance of the King's table which we are privileged continually to enjoy will fill us with joy and peace if we are only believing (II Sam. lx, 13; Rom. xv, 13). The story of a marriage takes us back to Gen. ii, 22-24, and on to the marriage of the Lamb (Rev. xix, 7, 8), the former in Eden being a type of the latter, according to Eph. v, 31, 32. The brides of Scripture are most suggestive also, as Rebekah, Jacob, Asenan, Zipporah, Ruth and Abigail. The story of Rebekah, being obtained by the servant for the only son of his master, who had given all his wealth to Isaac, is wonderfully suggestive. The question put to her, "Wilt go with this man?" (Gen. xxiv, 5) is like the "Come" of our lesson, and all the other "comes" such as Gen. vil, 1; Isa. i, 18; lv, 1; Matt. xi, 28; Rev. xxii, 17. We do not read of any of these disdaining the invitation or making any excuses nor of their being sorry that they accepted. Contrast the conduct of those in our lesson who were invited: "They would not come." They made light of it and went their ways. * * * They took his servants and entreated them spitefully and slew them" verses 3, 5, 6). What ignorance, what blindness? We are reminded of the pathetic words in John i, 10, 11: "He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own received Him not." It seems almost unbelievable that men should despise or make light of the love and grace of God and the offer of His kingdom and glory, but the wicked adversary, the god of this world, is always doing his utmost to blind people's minds, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them (II Cor. iv, 4). The carnal mind is also enmity against God (Rov. vili, 7), and none but the Holy Spirit can break it down and convince of sin. The burning up of the city (verse 7) may refer to its destruction by Nehuchadnezzar at the time of the captivity in Babylon or the destruction by Titus some forty years after the time of our lesson—probably the latter. The highway message may cover the whole of this age, when from all the world the guests are being gathered for the marriage of the Lamb. The bad and good remind us of the net of Matt, xiii. 47-50, and the end of the age, when there shall be the separation. We are to gather all who seem willing and leave it to Him to prove who are really His and who are mere professors, who really have and who only seem to have. In one place we read of the queens and also of the virgins, her companions (Ps. xlv, 9, 14). In Matt. xxv, 1 (Syriac and Vulgate), we read of the Bridegroom and the Bride' and the virgins. In Rev. xlx, 7, 9. we read of the Lamb's wife and also of those who are called to the marriage supper. In Luke xll, 36, we read of those who wait for the return from the wedding. All will be made plain in due time. Now the great question is, Have I cordially accepted His invitation? When is a man mos confused? When he misses his train. When are the people most unsafe? When they are not insured with the Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance Company. Which company pays for all disease known to medical science? The Pilgrim.

Perry, Supt A. B. Singfield, Gen'l Supt. —Adv Obvious Explanation. Old, Uncle Andy was steering his master's boat down the bay. They passed an ocean liner. "Andy," said Mr. Blank, "most look how high that ship stands out of the water. I wonder why it is." "Why, boes," answered the old darky, "don't you know? We ain't had no rain for nigh on three weeks now, and de water's gittin' low."-New York Post Lincoln's Companions When Abraham Lincoln in 1800 sought solitude that he might write his inaugural address he asked his friend Herndon for a copy of the constitution, for Webster's reply to Hayne, for Jackson's proclamation against nullification and for Henry Clay's speech on the compromise on 1800. The Truly Herticent Woman. Speak of a reticent woman and most people picture to themselves a woman who doesn't talk much. But the truly reticent woman—the woman who makes reticence an art—is not at all silent. She talks with apparently the greatest candor, so that people go away from her saying what a frank, genial woman she is. And no one ever suspects, unless he or she is phenomenally clever, that the genial conversationalist had all sorts of unspoken things in her mind—Exchange. HIDING THE TRUTH. No good can come from a policy of hiding the truth. Be sure your sins will find you out, but there is no need to have sins. If you begin by hiding small things you will develop cowardice and dishonesty in almost everything you do. Giving Birds a Chance. If man's instinct as a hunter could have been diverted from birds to insects the history of economic affairs, and especially of agriculture, would have been very different. But he has continued killing birds, not merely as a sport, but often for greedy traffic; long after the need to do so passed away. The time has come when governments must take serious thought for the protection of bird life in order that plant life-on which human sustenance depends may not be jeopardized and destroyed.-Atlanta Journal.

Fighting Has Occurred on the Austro-Servian and Austro-Russian Frontiers. A dispatch from Nish, Servia, under date of Sunday, says: "A naval battle between French and Austrian warships off Budun, Austria, in the Adriatic. The French squadron, coming from the southwest, attacked the Austrian warships. Two Austrian ironclads were sunk, one was set on fire, and a fourth fled northward toward Cattaro. The fight lasted oven an hour." A London dispatch contains the following regarding the general situation: Despite repeated repulses the German battalions continue to move forward for a decisive encounter, which cannot be delayed much longer. While there has been a full in the fighting in northern Belgium, the invaders are sweeping along the valley of the Meuse, south of Namur, and have reached Dinant, where part of a strong French force, which is established behind that town, took the offensive and defeated them. The incident shows that the French crossed the Belgian frontier to join hands with their allies not a moment too soon. All along the Alsace-Lorraine frontier advance guards of the two opposing armies have come into contact, and, according to French official reports, the Germans have been driven back everywhere with loss. Strong French forces are in possession of all the passes of the Vosges mountains, from the west, as far as those leading down to Colmar. Further south French forces are ready to proceed over the flat country toward Muelhunsen. The French has taken the offensive along the line from Luneville to Sarrebourg, on the German frontier, but here, as in the other theaters of war, the main armies have not come into contact. On the Austro-Servian and Austro-Russian frontiers both sides claim victory in encounters. But these can have little effect on the general result unless the Servians compel the Austrians to send stronger forces in an attempt to subdue them. Austria is preparing to resist an attack on her Adriatic shores, which possibly will be undertaken by the joint Anglo-French fleet. NO QUARTER SHOWN. Germany Said to Wage War of Exter- termination The correspondent of the London Exchange Telegraph company in Rome says a message from Berlin asserts that Germany has sent to France and Belgium, through neutral powers, a note stating that reports received from the German army leave no doubt that France and Belgium have organized a popular war against Germany, in which private citizens, not wearing uniforms, are firing on German troops. Germany gives notice that every Belgian or French private citizen who fires on German troops, or tries to interfere with communications between the army of the invasion and the rear guard, or to interfere in any way with the advance of the German army, will be shot. The note adds that if the war thus assumes a brutal character it will be the fault of France and Belgium and not Germany. BRAVERY OF BELGIAN. One Young Corporal Defeated a German Battery. A letter received at Cardiff, Wales, from a private in the Belgian army who took part in the fighting at Liege, describes how a young corporal named Lupin shot the officers and gunners of a German battery and then was killed by a German shell. The letter says the Germans, having failed in a frontal attack, were bringing up artillery when Lupin, exclaiming: "Leave them to me" dashed out. Taking cover behind a wall to the German left he enflashed the crew of the German battery. He shot down in quick succession the chief officer then the under officers and finally the gunners. Confusion ensued among the Germans who directed their last gun at the wall, bringing it down and crushing Lupin to death. STEAMER SEIZED. Taken as Prize by Dominion Authorities as She Entered Montreal. The Austrian steamer Ida, 4,700 tons, which sailed from Trieste and Naples before war was declared, reached Montreal and was taken over by the marine department of Quebec as a war prize. Captain Marintollich had heard nothing of the war and was astounded when marine department officials notified him of the seizure of his vessel. The Ida is a freighter, the property of the Austro-American line. She sailed from Trieste July 21 and from Naples July 25. FIELD OF WATERLOO FIGURES IN BATTLES Germans Trying to Force Their Way Through Belgium—Reported That Action Against Germany by Japan Will Not Extend Beyond China Seas. The London Daily Express says: "There is little doubt that a great battle has occurred in Belgium between the Germans, and the Belgian and French allies. "Our correspondent, in a cryptic dispatch from Ghent, indicates that the Germans are advancing on the historic battle ground of Waterloo and that events of the greatest importance are in progress." A Brussels dispatch to the London Daily Mall says: "Sharp fighting has been in progress since Monday morning." The Belgian ministers of war, finance and foreign affairs, and the French and Russian ministers to Belgium, have left Brussels for Antwerp, according to a dispatch received at London by the Exchange Telegraph company. The affairs of France and Russia were left by their ministers in the hands of the Spanish legation. That the Germans are forcing their way through Belgium is indicated by the Brussels report that German cavalry is approaching the Belgian capital; that measures for the defense of Brussels are being hastened, and that the seat of government has been removed to Antwerp. The British press bureau announces that any action which Japan may take against Germany will not extend beyond the China seas, except for the protection of Japanese shipping. The British war council has decided to exclude correspondents from the forces in the field, and it is announced that the French war department intends to take the same action, and that probably war correspondents in Belgium will be ordered out of that state. The German emperor, the crown prince and two other imperial princes are now at the great fortress of Mainz. The emperor's departure from Berlin for the front has evoked enthusiasm in the German capital. The Brazilian government has instructed its minister at Berlin to ask for explanations and the punishment of those guilty of the alleged attack by German soldiers on Bernardino Campos, ex-president of the state of São Paulo, and his wife, who are reported to have been beaten and forced across the Swiss frontier. Several Austrian army corps, according to advises from Vienna, have invaded Russia, and the Russian advance in Galicia has been checked. Brussels admits that the French casualties in the fighting between Namur and Dinant were heavy, as the Germans were strongly entrenched, and their artillery caused great havoc. The British official news bureau says that the French fleet in the Mediterranean has made a sweep up the Adriatic as far as Catturo. Four Austrian warships are reported to have been sunk. Montenegrin troops have crossed the Bosnian frontier and occupied the town of Techinitza after a fierce battle. They are also credited with capturing eight Austrian block houses and several villages. No word came from Berlin as to the probable reply Germany would make to Japan's ultimatum requiring withdrawal of the German government from possessions and operations in the far east. From Tokio came reports that the capital press warmly approved of the action of the Japanese government. Whatever military preparations Japan may be taking to enforce her demands apparently were covered up by a strict censorship. MADE HEROIC CHARGE. Hearing the Marseillaise Rallied Frenchmen. A Brussels dispatch to the London Exchange Telegraph company says the French casualties in the fighting between Namur and Dinant were heavy, as the Germans were strongly entrenched and their artillery at the outset played great havoc with the French. The French wing at Dinant had been badly cut up and nearly routed when suddenly the strains of the Marseillaise resounded in the French lines and the men rallied and reformed. With splendid gallantry they charged, hurling themselves on the German troops, breaking through their lines and putting them to flight. American Cowboys Enlisting. A dispatch to the London Daily Telegraph from Paris says: "The recruiting of a corps of rough riders is proceeding rapidly. Several American cowboys and former American cavalrymen are among its members. Three wealthy Americans have promised to furnish the best mounts money can buy for the entire body. The troop will be self-supporting and is expected to start for the front in ten days." WHEN the historian who will record the events of the great European war of 1914 portrays the feats of heroism and valor he will mention in the forefront of these the defense of Liege by the Belgians under the command of King Albert. The entire world stands today in admiration of the heroic resistance made by the people of the small kingdom against the attacks of the kaiser's forces. Liege, one of the strongest fortified cities of Belgium, is the key to the German advance on France. The fortifications along the French frontier proper are so strong that the kaiser would have to sacrifice the lives of a great part of his army if he should choose to enter France by destroying these fortifications. They are built of earth and steel and have been constructed by the ablest French engineers. The fortifications consist of a double network and have been thrown up all along the line of the German-French frontier. To be sure, the fortifications which the kaiser's army would have to capture or destroy in Belgium on its march upon France are also of gigantic character, but offer a more favorable entrance into French territory. Liege first appears in history in the sixth century, at which time a town grew up around the original chapel founded there by St. Mountulph, bishop of Tongres. It was taken by Marlborough in 1702, and the fortress was garrisoned by the Dutch until 1718. The French revolutionary armies overran Belgium in 1792, and A MAIN SQUARE OF LIEGE AND SOLDIERS CROSSING RIVER MEUSE from 1794 to the fall of Napoleon it was annexed to France and was known as the department of the Ourthe. The congress of Vienna in 1815 decreed that Liege should form part of the new kingdom of the Netherlands under the rule of William L. of the house of Orange. The city took an active part in the Belgian revolt of 1830, and since that date the ancient princi- pality of Liege has been incorporated in the kingdom of Belgium. The Belgian defense of Liege has been greatly assisted by armored cupolas. These cupolas were built at the Cockerill works, located just outside of Liege. Armored cupolas mounting single rapid fire guns and in pairs command the approaches to many of the principal bridges over the Mouse. This form of defense is unknown in the United States, but it follows the general method in vogue in France in commanding the principal avenues of approach over the frontier by permanent batteries. The Belgian cupola lie very closely to the ground and show not more than three or four feet above the surface. They are almost invisible. The cupola gun position comprises an excavation for the gun mount and magazine, with the cupola covering the whole like the iron lid of a pst. The only opening is a port just large enough for the chase of the gun, and the piece is trained by the revolving of the cupola, like that of a telescope. There is generally an all around fire. Liege is the principal manufacturing city of Belgium. All the artillery and small arms manufactured for the Belgians come from Liege. The great Cockerill works, the Krupps of Belgium, employing 10,000 men, are located at Sering, just outside of Liege. Within the town proper are an immense number of private gun plants, machinery and machinery tool shops and locomotive works. Included in the number is the government small arms factory, known as the Fabrique Nationale. Liege is the principal railway material manufacturing city of Belgium, and Belgian locomotives, steel rails, freight cars and mining machinery, which go to all parts of the world, come for the most part from Liege.

Freemasonry is closely akin to religion in this respect, that it is a mode of life, rather than a theory. Theology is a complicated system of doctrine, and appeals to the intellect. Real religion consists not merely of faith and worship, but of works that conform to the rules of righteousness. It is a state of active, rather than dormant or passive piety. In our fraternity we have the intellectual Mason, the practical Mason and the superficial Mason. The first named is strong on symbolism. The scheme of morality, as taught in our stately ritual appeals to his intellect and he delights in study of the philosophy and history of the institution. In the majority of cases he is sincere in his admiration for the principles of Masonry and tries to exemplify them in his daily life. The practical Mason, so called, is not gifted with vivid imagination, but is strong on common sense. Mysticism symbolism, philosophy make no special appeal to him. The antiquity of the institution may inspire a feeling of reverence, but it is the square deal, the rugged honesty, the principles of equality and equity that command his allegiance. He finds in Masonry a system of morality that is suited to everyday use and under its influence he practices true charity and the cardinal virtues of fortitude, prudence temperance and justice. Brotherly love inspires the practical Mason and where love exists creeds and theories are superfluous. The superficial Mason is an all too common type. He becomes a Mason because he has friends in the lodge, because the institution is popular, because he wants to wear a button and have the world know that he belongs to the most influential secret society. He likes "the drama" in the Third Degree, but has no patience to sit out the intellectual First and Second. Brotherly love, relief and truth mean very little to him, but the "social side" is his specialty. He is a "good mixer" and makes himself popular with the other good mixers, and so if he becomes ambitious, as many superficial Masons do, he aspires to leadership and obtains office because he "rushes in where angels fear to tread." Not being over modest, he asks for what he wants and generally gets it. The philosophy of Masonry makes no appeal to him, but in Masonic politics he finds his element. In politics he is some times successful because, not being possessed of a Masonic conscience, he adopt methods which are abhorrent to honest Masons.—Selected. The first preparation to be a Mason is declared to be at the heart. That preparation consists in a desire to be good, true and honest man, and the wish for affiliation with good true and honest men, so as to more effective work for his own improvement and that of mankind in general.—Texas Freemason. Let every man be occupied in the highest ways of which his nature is capable, and die with the consciousness that he has done his best.—Sydney Smith. It needs no argument to convince any Mason who is not dead to all his obligations that Masonry has some higher and noble mission than the mere conferring of degrees; that the work of the lodge room has a greater scope than the repetition of ceremonies, be they ever so venerable with age or beautiful with sentiment; that the record of a lodge which do not tell us of some good deed performed, some act of charity done for charity's sake are but the memories of wasted hours. of vain pretensions, of solemn promises broken of duties neglected.—Frederic Speed. Freemasonry is not a system of literalism; it is a system of symbolism. It invests its furniture, its emblems and its gavels with great moral ideas. It realizes that while "the letter killeth, the spirit maketh alive." It rises above the letter and accepts and cherishes the spirit of truth and of God in the Holy Bible and in all else with which it has to do. Thus it spiritualizes the Temple of Solomon, makes it a symbol of Master building—of erecting the Temple of the Soul—for eternity. Thus also it makes all its ethics sublime. It is not to be judged by what others think but by what it thinks of the Bible, of God and of the worthy men whose virtues it commends and commemorates.—John W. Brown. That Freemasonry is worth be- ing handed down to other generations was recently illustrated in the case of an entered apprentice, who received at the hands of his father, the Worshipful Master of his lodge the degree while his grandfather, a Past Master, presented him with an apron. 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 and 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. Negro Business League's Weekly Letter-by J. C. Lindsay A gentleman, who is a regular reader of our weekly letter said to the writer of a few days since that you fellows seem to be bent on telling the people about what you are doing and about what things you hope to do. I assured him that it was right and that we mean to continue to hammer away at it until every man in Savannah, who has a business worth while, will have that business represented through the Negro Business League which is destined to do so much for Negro business in this community. He being a short sighted, yet honest and plain speaking, straight forward man, said: "Tell me, how I am to expect material help from the Business League?" Then he looked at another splendid gentleman and gave him a kind of sarcastic grin. (and by the way, I might add just here, that the gentleman at whom my questioner smiled was trained in the same school of thought that my questioner was trained in.) We began by making a statement before attempting to answer his question, by saying to him, that the personal pronoun had entered too largely already into our racial and business development, and we as a natural consequence, had been made to suffer as a race as a result of such down right selfishness. We also called his attention to the white board of trade, to the white Commercial Club the white Chamber of Commerce, all of this city, where the white business men meet from time to time for the purpose of discussing mighty business problems, the launching of new businesses and the giving of more loyal attention to the ones already established on their business thoroughfares; many of which are fourty, fifty and sixty years old. We also said to our would be smart friend, "If the white man with his centuries of freedom, civilization and business training find the need of such organizations for the propetuity of his business interest in this busy age of commercialism what fault do you find of representative business Negroes getting together, say, about once or twice a month, and there discuss their business problems and short comings with the end in view of helping in the making of those conditions better?" We said to him, that up to now, we have only discussed the racial side of your question, without giving you a direct answer to your question, "How am I to be helped?" First, the criticisms which are evoked from the members of the league from time to time with reference to ill kept shops and places of business, and the spirit in which these criticisms are made and the good motive in which they are received, have not only helped the proprietors of these places and businesses to see themselves as they are seen by others; but have caused those making the criticisms to feel in honor bound to support that concern or business which they have taken the liberty to criticise in the open. Second, that man, business or firm that can convince the publisher that he or they have something more than a pecuniary interest in their well fare, will be that man, business or firm in the long run, that will enjoy the patronage and good will of the public where such sentiment has crystalize. Third, in helping to create a sentiment among our people which will cause them to think and see how important it is for the members of the race with adequate means at their command to assist in furnishing places of employment for this army of young people coming from the various schools and colleges from year to year.

Theodore Hawkins, "The Noted Gospel trumpeter of western and central Penn," and who was once a pastor in this city but now not pastoring anywhere, has undertaken to publish a pamphlet entitled "A Message to the Churches on Deaconship," and Whereas there are false statements and baneful suggestions in the said pamphlet, relative to the method of administration in Baptist churches, the tendency of which is destructive to the peace and harmony now existing, and productive of the spirit of jealousy and discord among officers and pastors, not only in the Baptist churches but also in all other churches where pastors and other officers exist; and Whereas several copies of this "obnoxious work" are already in the possession of our people, therefore, be it Resolved, That we, the Baptist Ministers Union, do denounce such a work as pernicious and undesirable. We also saw fit because of such work and other things to withdraw the hand of fellowship from the Rev. Mr. Hawkins or Gospel trumpeter. Resolved, That these resolutions be spread upon the pages of our records and that a copy be sent to The Tribune for publication. Wm. Gray, President Baptist Ministers Association. On August 10th the Metoka class of the F. A. B. S. S. tendered the school and its members an evening of enjoyment, by giving them a free water-melon cutting at 1220 Murphy avenue at the home of Mrs. Blair. The hours before the water-melon cutting was pleasantly spent in wholesome amusements. The spacious yard was lighted with Japanese lanterns and red, white and blue draping coming from one point and terminating into beautiful triangles. At 11 o'clock the march was played and over thirty boys and girls marched around the table and partook of the delicious melons.
