The large church is crowded Sunday evenings to its rtmost capacity The Sunday morning services are attended by good sized audiences The weeknight and Epworth League devotional services are well maintained. On Monday evening of last week a musical and social evening was given. The features of the interesting program were the singing of Miss V. Willene Jackson and the piano solos by Miss M. Minniola Jackson, daughters of Dr. J. Will Jackson. These young ladies are masters in their professions as musical scholars and teachers. Miss V. Willene Jackson has a voice of great volume and richness. Miss M. Muniola is proficient in her work as a pianist. It is interesting to note also that while Dr. Jackson served as pastor in

St. Louis, what is now the great Union Memorial Church in that city was the outcome of the consolidation of two churches, brought about largely by his agency and, under his leadership.
It is gratifying to us to note that this church now has a membership of over 600, and is therefore the second largest church in the conference, Union Memorial, of St. Louis being first. The seating capacity is taxed to its utmost at every service.

OTTERVILLE
Otterville has some substantial Negro citizens, both in and out of town. They are proud of their little village, and proud of their new pastor the Rev C. S. Webster, rain or shine, they turn out to hear him. The pastor is domiciled at Mr and Mrs Thompson, a brother of Mr. Adams of Sedalia, and like him a thrifty man. Mr. Thompson and his wife are splendid examples of what any couple can do, when they are industrious and economical. Webster is making a splendid reputation for George R.
VERSAILLES
"Beautiful Versailles" should be the name of the county seat of Morgan county. The Negroes of this place are not boastful. But show me a town where more Negroes own their homes or where there are so few of the shiftless class. Their spiritual adviser are the Rev M. Watts and Payton. Brother Payton is the kind hearted, gentle-soul and lovable preacher. He is punctual in his pulpit, having up-to-date services He does not worry his congregation, with long sermons, no long collections. He loves both his enemies and his friends. The George R. boys are doing excellent work for the school.
SPRINGFIELD
B-other Wheeler wields a large influence in this town for God, and for humanity's uplift, almost at every service, he is the means of inducing someone to take a stand for Christ, on the 16 inst three owned Christ as their Savour. Prof. B. F. Adam is still the busy man. Miss Henley is still loyal to George R. and hereafter from Ozark regions more loyal sons and daughters will come. Revs Mr Owsey and Simpson of the Baptist church and the C. P. Church respectively are large hearted men. Tis a positive delight to be in the presence. The good pastor and the people of the A. M. E. church has installed a pipe organ and made other improvements in their church. Pitts chapel has a splendid new lot and a $1000 in cool cash for a new church. The trustees will rally on the fifth Sunday for $400 or $500. Here's to their success.
MT. VENON
Go to Mt. Vernon and see Rev B. F. Bateman as he invites the people to this beautiful town to services, and from those he invites, and from those who come you will think that there is no race question in this place. There is none, but peace and harmony of the races here reign serene. Bro Bateman is a George R. boy. He is ably seconded by his very talented wife. If he will only preach the word his wife would pastor. We meet here our old friend Mrs and Miss Dicus, both are looking forward to the time when they can retrnrn to Geo. R

fool with partisa issues in such a great convocation as that called
by Bishop Grant to meet in St. Louis on July 10 and 11 will be im-
prudent and not iukeeping with the spirit of the Jefferson City
meeting.

How To Disprove It.
The Associated Press of this
country takes much prige end
pleasure in flashing across the
country any and all crimes that
the colured race are accused of
committing. Guilty o1 innocent
it is al, the same, and the state-
ment once made rarely, if ever, is
contradicted, even if found to be
false. But there isa way to dis-
prove it, A gentlemen is respect
ed, no matter where he goes,
The white man claims that
colored race is ignorant and .im-
pudenf, and that he does not ap-
preciate what is done for him
Now, to some extent, this may
be true, but it must be remem-
bered that the colored people are
not allalike, and the white man,
if he knows anything about them
knows that there are apprecia-
tive colored people in this coun-
try who koows their friends,
| The sensible white man ap-
preciative an industrial person
a0 matter what their color may
be. The colored man may be
the same inevery staté to some
extent. The southern contin-
gents are leaving the farms and
rushlpg into citics,
Mhis is wrong. ‘The ministe-
is not doing its duty in the pul-
pit of the race, Mne colored man
must céase begging and going
from door todoor with hat in
hand; be must disprove the
charge that he isa criminal by
instinct and a vagabond by na-
ture, In this city itis gratifying
tosee the business enterprises
that have been started by the col
ored people. and the Jim Crow
laws eracted in the South by the
prejudiced white man has brought
the colored together as nothing
else could haye done. They nc
longer depend ugop drug stores
that discriminate against them
banks that have their separatior
|windows for their depositors
they have their own restaurants
doctors lawyers and theatres
‘The colored people will not havi
tolerate when we can do for our
selves, and will not have to be as!
ing the white manto do for us
We shall thedisprove the charge
continually. made against us,
