TO PREVENT LYNCHINGS
Views of a Prominent Negro on the Southern
Problem.
At the Nashville Exposition recently a
conference of representative colored men
from all Bcctions of the country was held
for the purpose of considering all ques
tions affecting the negro race. Among
the number present was l'rof. W. II.
(.'outx-ill, president of tliu Agricultural
and Mechanical College for negroes, loca
ted at Normal, Alabama, who was elected
chairman. In opening the oonferenc ho
made a speech in which it is said he
gave expression to scntimcnta. which at
lirst sounded unusual, and called forlh a
flood of criiicism Iriun a certain class ol
eoloted ui ll Irion the North, but Were
afterward received by the press as a most
dignlied and helpful contribution to the
nettro problem. Among ulher things
l'rof. t'liiineill said:
' In this coniieciiou I urge this council
of negroes to speak out in no uncertain

"SHE WAS A STK.VNOElt."
Tho following story, which comes from
the West, brings with it a lesson for all,
old and young.
A Sunday-school missionary, while ad
dressing a Sunday-school, noticed a little
girl shabbily dressed and b ire-footed,
s'iriiikiii.' in a corner, hot little sunburned
face buiicd iu her hands, and sobbing as
if tur heart would break. Soon, how
ever, another little girl about eleven years
of age, got up and weut to her. Taking
her by the hand she led her out lo a
brook, where she seated the little one on
a log. Then kneeling beside her, this
giiod Samaritan look off the ranged mn.
bonnet and, dipping her hand in the
water, bathed the other's hot eyes and
tear-stained face and smoothed the tangled
hair, talkine, cheerily all Ihe while.
The little one brightened up, ihe tests
vanished, and smih a came creeping around
the rosy mouth. TKo missionary, who
had followed the two, stepped lorward
aud asked, "la this your sister?"
"No, sir," answered the child, with
tender earnest eyes. "I hive do sister?"
"Oh, one of the neighbors' children,"
I -plied the missionary, "a little schoolmate
perhaps?"
"No, sir; she is a stranger. I do not
know where she came from I never
saw her before."
"Then, how catuo you to take her?"
"Because she was a stranger, air, and
seemed all shine, and needed somebody
to be kind lo her." Uur Young Folks

WILL BE SAVED BY A SLAVE
UIJ African lo Use His Klondike Gold for
His Former Master's Daughler.
Among the lucky miners in the Klon
dike is a former slave, a grizxled old
African who bears the high sounding
name of St. John Athcrton. lie has
dug out SoO.OOII in gold, aod has a
duple of claims which may be reason
ably expected to yield $1 00,000 more.
He is probably the one man in Alaska

'minion his mining work and return to

Before the war Atherlon was owned
by a Georgia family which had a large
p'anlation near Atlanta. When he got
his freedom he drilled about the country
d dug odd jobs and finally struck the
Yukoo valley, whero ho got work as a
freighter. The ex-slave had a hard time
ol' it for years and when tho Klondike
excitement broke out ho made his way to
t le gold fields. There he toiied iu dig
gings which had been abandoned by
white men until he found a paying streak,
since which he has been accumulating
money very fast. When asked what he
intended to do with his $30,0110 which
he has now on deposit in Dawson City,
Atherton, said:
"I'm going back to Georgia and buy
th i old plantation."
'Buy tho old plantation? Why, what
d) you mean?"
"When I was a slave my master was
t rich man. He was kind to mo and
his daughter was just liko him. Things
didn't go well with him after the war
and sonic years ago he lia 1 to mortgage
the plantation. Since then he died, and
his daughter is now living on tho old
pi ice alone. The time is coming when
it must be sold if the mortgage is not
p lid, and then she will have no home.
What I want to do is to get back to
Georgia next spring and buy up that
mortgage. Then I will turn Ihe planta
tion over to my old master's daughter
and nobody can drive her away from it."
"But she won't like the idea of hav
ing one of her former slaves for a boBs."
'Huh! I don't want to be a boss
I'll just slay around and look after things
for her like I used to. Somebody's got
to do it aud I know she'd rather have
me than a stranger. It will take $30,000
or $15,0011, and the rest of my money
will keep me as long as live." Chicago

FOR HIS MOTHER'S SAKE
He Thought The Little rioiver Might Make
His Mother Peel Better.
The florist's boy bad just swept some
broken and withered flowers into the
gutlcr, when a ragged urchin darted
across the street. Ho stooped over the
pile of tangled flowers, and looking them
carefully through, came at last upon a
rose seemingly in better condition than
the rest. But as tenderly as ho picked
it up, the petals fluttered to tho ground,
caving only the bare talk in his hand,
lie stood quite still and his lips quiver
ed perceptibly. The florist's boy, who
had been looking at hi in severely, felt
that his face was softening. "What's die
matter with you anyway?" he asked.
The ragged little fellow choked as he
answered: "It's for my mother. She's
sick, and she can't cat nothin,' I thought
if she'd a flower to smell, it might make
her feel better."
"Just you wait a minute," said the
florist's boy as he disappeared. When
he came upon die side-walk he held in
hand a beautiful half opened rose, which
he carefully wrapped in tissue paper.
There, ' lie said, "take that to your
mother."
He had meant to put that rosebud on
his mother's grave, and yet he knew he
had done the better thing. "She'll un
derstand," he said to himself;"aud I know
this will please her most."

LOOK AFT Kit YOU It SHOES.
Never try to wear a shoe too small,
or that does not fit you when yuu fir.-t
put it on; there is no misery more
nearly distressing than a shoe that hurls
your foot. Never let your shoes get hard
aod drv; don't let them run over; don't
let the heels tuu down; don't dry a wet
shoe until you have rubbed it well with a
flaunel cloth, then with vaseline. Never
put near the stove Haifa peck of oats
kept iu a small box, will be tho very
oheapest and best form for a wet shoo. Fid
the shoe and shake the oats down, after
having rubbed and oiled it, and set in a
dry place to diy gradually. When dry-
pour the oats back for further Uie. Do
not "blacking" more than a week at a
time. Take a wet rag and wash the shoes
at least once a week, and oil over night
to keep in good condition. Never handle
potent leather until you have warmed it.
Never wear "rubbers" with good shoes.
Put on old shoes in wet weather. There
is no part of the apparel of a lady or gen
