J. Colbert, The church has ad vanced dong all lines, due to the l^sidimos labor and devotion of its pastor, to his church interests. Dur ing his three years' residence in this city he has, not only endeared h^Sjlf to. the members of his own church and congregation, but to the whole people. He is greatly ad mired for his high Christian charac ter. As a preacher he is scholarly and eloquent He has made a great record in this city. He left the city an Tuesday for conference, which, irill hold its session at Hartford^ Conn. It is earnestly hoped by his many friends here that he will be returned to this field.—Providence A. NUT FOR JBVANS TO CRACK. Pelow we append the latest public expression of that able and patriotic South Carolinian who has espoused' the cause of right against the con stituted authorities of the misgov erned Palmetto State. Our readers will recall his utterances which ap peared * in h previous issue of Th* Stab. We have no doubt it will be encouraging to knbwtbat this strong advocate of manhood rights mid fair play has not retreated one inph from the honorable* and righteous position Which he took in the begin ning Of the Tillinan-Irby-Evans fraud measures to rob the Negro of hfckuffrage and oommit other crimes against good government and a free ballot: • DAKGAN TO EYAH8. [From the State of May 14. ’95.]' " A plain statement from the editor of the Freeman. “To the editor of the State : I take the folio wring clipping from an interview given by Governor Evans on Friday evening to the Southern Associated Press and appearing in Saturday's State. . “the registration outlook.” “As to the decision in the regis tration esse and his position on that matter, (Governor Evans said: ‘I will simply say that there will be a straight fight now between the white man and the ‘digger,'' and Gqd save the white man that goes to the Negro. Beyond this I have nothing more to say than I have already said.” “Now I wish to notify Mr. Evans $ha|I, for one, have gone to . the “nigger” to the extent of enlisting mow earnestly to see that the de-, spised.

Under the administration of Bish op T. H. Lomax, J). D., and thro the efforts of Revs. B. M. Gudger, W. H. -Ferguson, E. R. White and a number of the leading ministers of Tennessee and strong laymen at Greenville the beautiful eight-acre site overlooking the historic town of Greenville was secured some years ago for the purpose of establishing a high school. Prof. B.‘ E. Toomey, A. M., an attorney at law, was the first principal of this f chool and Con tinued to conduct it in connection with the public school until about two years ago when he resigned the principalship. In 1894 Bishop Lo mas appointed Rev. R. A. Morrisey, A. B., to the Greenville church and also to take charge of the school. Rev. Morrisey entered upon the work in the winter of 1894 under very em barrassing circumstances, but seeing the prospects and needs of the work, he determined to give it a fair trial After one year’s effort he found that he could not succeed with the’school and church upon the meagre income which he received and he decided to leave Mrs, Morrisey, bis accom plished wife, who is a graduate of Bhaw University and a teacher of of experience and rare fitness, and t$ke the field to raise money for the school. During the past scholastic year Mrs. Morrisey has acted as principal, having as her assistant Rev, J. H. Branner, a very , earnest youg man of rany excellent parts and a good school teacher. Rev Branner is sorely afflicted with lame ness, but during the past school year he did what he could to assist Mrs. Morrissey. These two put their ef forts together and carried on the most successful term of the school since it was first established. W hen it is remembered that the school was conducted apart from the public school, with no income, but a small tuition with what JRev., Morrisey could raise and a few dollars from a very few of the pastors, one can ap predate the noble efforts and sacri ficing labors which Rev and Mrs Morrisey have put forth this year. The school, which is now known as Greenville College, has one large frame building two dories high, neatly ceiled and comfortably ar ranged for the accommodation of about 150 students. Rev. Morrisey has rented the large residence of Pre siding Elder Gudger as a home for teachers and dormitories for students In this they have had all the board ing students they could accommo date. Among the sixty odd students who have been enrolled during the past session there were some as bright minds as it has been _ our pleasure to meet. The closing ex ercises which took place on the first fast, were interesting and in every way Creditable. We know no place more suitable or where a school is more needed than at Greenville. The colored people—especially Zion’s members— as a rale, own their own homes, many of then! possessing large plantations, or buildings in the business part of town, or are en gaged in profitable businesses.; Zion church is growing in Tennessee as never before and thefe, as elsewhere, thC minds of our youth are thirsting for knowledge, and the parents are becoming interested about sending their children to school. In fact, many of them have been sending their Children to ojfcher schools be cause Ziou had no school adequate to meet their demands. Be*. Mor risey has toet with encouraging suc cess collecting, and has been able to keep the'sehool running largely thro his own efforts. He is willing to labor at the schooled endeavor to bifild it tip' proaddCd he can secure thCaid Of His brethren and thC churches. We feel warranted in saying that no happier selection sotdd have been made to znanagC this school than Bev. Morrisey. His es timable and cultured wife is W wo man of such qualities as jmake i success of anything she undertakes.1 Her heart and talents have been thoroughly consecrated to the work, and she desires to see it succeed. If Tennessee, |$fh her two conferences, wither mbhy strong men, will come to t^e aid of this school as she can and should, it will be a success and a credit to the race, as Well as an hon or to our Zion. We regretted to ob serve the absence of all of the pas tors and'presiding elders of both eonffHQiices, save the pastor of the local church, who is a teacher in the school. H is neither encouraging nor inspiring when our pastors show such little interest in our so called connectioual schools. The people will become aroused in proportion as the pastors ate aroused. If Green ville College is made a success it will be because the presiding elders and pastors make it such. If it fail it will be because they let it fail. ■ 3 » j ■'Vfr> PER8Q&AL MENTION. Among the many brilliant young men of Zion whose words efforts and presence gave inspiration to the re cent session of the Philadelphia and Baltimore conference few contribut ed more larg&v and spoke more fit ingly or eloquently than the two strong young men from the Genessee conference—Elders H. J. Callis and S. L. Corrothers of Ithaca and El mira, N. Y, respectively. Elder Callis is preparing to remodel the church at Ithaca while Elder Cor rothers is carrying Elmira by storm. i *** i It has been a long time since Zion has had two men to come to her ranks who have been more valuable accessions than Kevs. J. F. More land, D. D., of Harrisburg and W. H. Coffey, D. Df, of Brooklyn, N. Y. As a builder and financier Dr. More land heads the list for 1895, and has shown himself no less succesful as a pastor and disciplinarian. As a preacher and financier Dr. Coffey has few equals in anybody’s church. Zi on has room for more men of the above stamp. 1 'It was our pleasure to spend about two hours at the bedside of Mrs. ^Bishop Jones on our homeward rjourney from the North. Tho yet very weak and bearing the marks of sore affliction, she was cheerful, full of faith and hope, and was as anx ious as ever about our beloved Zion and the many ministers and laymen whom she personally knows. Mrs. Jones hopes soon to recover, and the prayers of the church should ascend to heaven to that end It will be a pleasure to our read ers everywhere to learn that our veteran pastor and able preacher. Dr. R. H. G. Dyson is once more able to be up and about. He asked «to be left without a charge this year that he might regain his health entirely. IFe earnestly hope he may not only regain bis health, but hope he may be able to yet give many years of valu able serv^e^Q Zion and the race. #** *** The Philadelphia and Baltimore has to reprasent her laity in the next general conference, two laymen who are an honor to Zion. Mr, John Henry Butler of Baltimore is a vet eran Zion member who has been the backbone of Zion' Methodism in Bal timore for more than half a century Altho he now bears the weight of seventy-one years upon his shoulders he is yet a strong man alert to every interest of his church and race, and looks as tho he would live twenty years longer. .Prof. J. W. Scott, tlie other delegate, is a handsome man of rare intelligence and is a ready speaker Prof. J. W. Powell, a talented lay man of our church at Boston, and Brother Samuel J. Brown, of New Haven, Conn., both strong men— men of business qualities—tried and true Zionites, will represent the New England conference in the next general conference. If the other conferences follow suit in electing such men the interests of the laity will be in able and safe hands. * * * The New York ’conferenne lay college elected Mr. C. T. Alsdorf of Newburg and Mr. Buchannan of Brooklyn, N. Y., to represent the New York laity in the next general conference. Mr. Alsdorf is a grand son of the late Bishop Thompson and a worthy grand he is. Mr Buchanan is one of the foremost men of our church in Brooklyn. Both are strong men. *** The closing exercises of Palmetto Institute, Union, 8, C , will take place on the 7th of June. Notice is hereby given by Bishop LU. Clinton requesting the presence of all the trustees at that time as business of important), wilf b« transacted. Hon. Walter Q. Gresham, Presi dent Cleveland’s Secretary of State, died at 1:15 a. m. Tuesday after a] iinfiininriiiiniiif'iirTiii short illness. We shal) have more to say of this able American jurist and statesman in a subsequent issue. *** Hon. John C. Dancy wishes The Stab to make public acknowledge ment of his thanks for the valuable and useful testimonials given him by some of the brethren and friends of the New York conference. **5fc The following distinguished visi tors are in attendance upon the commencement: Bishops J TP. Hood, T. H. Lomax, I. C. Clinton and Alexander Walters, Drs. ft, H. Simmons, R. S. i?ives, J. W. Al stork, R, R. Morris and P. A. Hubert, Revs. J. M. Jacobs, J. A. Peake and Prof S. G. Atkins. * *** The Star gave the name of Mr. John Wheeler and wife as the dis tinguished persons who entertained Bishop Hood at Hartford when it should have been Hon. John Hook er. WHITE FIENDS LYNf HED. I1 John Hall, Jr., and William Roye who had criminally assaulted two young ladies near Bloomingtou, 1)1., were lynched by a mob early Mon day morning. Judge Bookwalter, of the circuit court, addressed the mob and couuselled peace and order, at the same time assuring the crowd that a jury would certainly convict. The Judge’s speech was momenta rily effective, but the leaders of the mob replied: “Yes we know the jury will convict them and give them a severe sentence, but Gov ernor Altgeld will pardon them out He recently pardoned three brutes sent up from Champaign county for 20 years, and he will pardon these men. If any other man than Alt geld was governor we would not lynch these men. But we are de termined he will never have the chance to turn them loose ” Speaking of the occurrence, the Jacksonville Daily American had the'following to say editorially: NO LONGER A NEGRO OFFENCE. “The newspapers of yesterday heralded to the world ihat three wh|te men were guilty of a crime which it is commonly thought only Negroes commit Two of them suffered what has become the com mon penalty; the third died by his own hand.' This third case is most revolting and sickening in its de tails. An old man sixty years, of age, wealthy, a prominent member of the church, and seemingly re spectable in every way, committed his hellish deed on his preacher’s daughter, a little child eleven years old. It proves one thing at least, that all of the ‘brutes’ and ‘fiends’ do not wear black skins. It proves that there are depraved men in both races. But, returning to the former case, the two men who were lynched were lynched in a State that is not a Southern 'State. This proves that all men are liable to give away to violent passion; and does it not al so prove that contempt for law is spreading ? The crime in question is one of the gravest known, but is there any offence more fraught with danger to the State than disregard for law ? The safety of the com monwealth depends upon the re spect which the citizens have for law; whatever that law might be, If the law is weak or inadequate change it, but do not disregard it. 1 he fact iq lynching is no longer retained solely as a punishment for the above crime. Many men have been lynched for murder, and even for theft. The question comes: how much further will this lawless ness go ? Tf it go much further we may as well abolish our courts and turn the administration of jus tice over to frenzied, blundering mobs. '* . ♦ -»■ -- CHAT8 AND DOING8 IN AND AROUND LIVING8TONE , COLLEGE. The joint meeting between the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. T. U. last Tuesday evening was very in teresting, and we think all were benefited by it. The paper “Why sign the pledge” brought forth much discussion, but in the end all agreed that it was * better and more safe to sign. The commencement exercises on the sand with the closing of the Preparatory |Departraer>. There were some very good recitations rendered, and all were convinced that it was not a whit behind last year. The solo by Miss Williams was excellent indeed. Such exercises convinced one of the proficiency of Miss Rich ardson as principal of that depart ment ■ i -'Hr' ' On Thursday night we were again greeted by the performers of the Normal Department. The exer cises consisted of a declamation by r nrn,*itr-r»i -iy . i!.;>«fi .i r imcrai Geo. Holliday; paper, "The Power and Influence of the Teacher," by Mias Annie Warner; recitation by Miss Etta Walker; Oration by J. F. Lee. They all did their part well. < After the performances Prof. Johnson i read the averages and standing of the members of the Normal Depart ment. Mias Lizzie Walker, of Cambridge, Mass., lead the Senior class; Mr. Samuel Duncan, of Louis ville, Ky., the Middle; Miss Etta Walker, of Chester, S. C., the Junior. Friday evening the Y. M. C. A. had its anniversary. The. program consisted of a declamation by J. J. Byers’; retrospect by J. P. Black well; annual address by Prof. F. H. Noble. The retrospect gave an epitomized history of the successful growth of that organization in the United States and ff its birth and growth among the colored people. It also stated the work done by the association here during the last and former years. The annual address by Prof. Noble was, indeed, one full of thought and inspiration to the youthful mind. His subject was, "The Fittiest Survive.” On Saturday, evening we had the privilege of listening to the program of the anniversary of the Y. W. C. T. U., and observed the determina tion of the fair sex to fight until this fair land of ours shall be ireed from the curse of intemperence. The pa per, "We will fight it out on this line" and the "Drunkard’s Ten Commandments" impressed us of the necessity of all the forces we can muster for the cause of temperance. On Sunday we were blessed with two excellent sermons—one to the Y. M. C. A., and the baccalaureate sermon. At n o’clock Rev. J. H. McMullen, of Louisville, Ky., preached a thoughtful and impres sive sermon to the association. At 3 p. m , the college chapel was packed to its utmost capacity to listen to the baccalaureate sermon by Rev. B. F. Wheeler, B. D., presid ing elder of the New Jersey confer ence. We don’t think we ever lis tened to a more excellent sermon, and those who have been here for years say that they never heaid a better sermon for these occasions Thus we are reminded that we have men able to fill any position to which they may be called. auuuay evening was occupied oy the students in their annual confer ence giving tlyeir farewell ^alk for this* year, and possibly some forever. Monday evening we had the Fresh men Contest. The contestants Were G. C. Clement, of Mocksville, N. C.., W. J. Trent, of Pineville, N. C.', and J. W. Walker, of Ashville, N. C. The judges were Prof. Leath erwood, of Ashville, Rev. B. F. Wheeler, of Jersey City, N. J , and Bishop Walters. All the contest ants did well. The Judges will ren. der their decision on commence ment day. Thus we have had a fine com mencement so far, and we will rest our pen until neat week when we will finish reporting the exercises.

COSTIHUEP FROM FIRST PAGE. >us orb of day was shining in his iplendor and beanty. An early prayer meeting was held at Zion Dhnreh and a glorious oat-pouring of the spirit, while the refreshing show ars of grace was enjoyed. At 10:30 8 T Dickson was the speaker. He preached a practical and able discourse from the words in Revelation “And 1 saw anotber angel dying in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel.” J J Adam 1 assisted the speaker. The 8unday school was addressed by Hon, J C Dancy Ihe afternoon and evening services were held in the Asylnm-st. M E church, a large and commodious structure where we were so kindly welcomed by Dr. Thorp and .his offi cers and members. At 3 p. m. an immense congregation assembled to listen to the youngest son of the sainted Bishop 8 T Jones, E D W Jones, of Knoxville, Tenn. G W Clinton read the hymn “Before Je hovah’s awful throne,” and after read ing the Scriptures asked God's bless ing. on the speaker and the sermon. Rev. Clinton in introducing the peak referred to the fact that just eleven years ago Bishop 8 T Jones, D D, presided over the session #f the New England conference and preached an able sermon in this spacious church and that his youngest son was to stand in the sacred place to day. Rev. Jones preached a sermon that was replete in profound thought, ele gant in expression and forcibly de livej£<J. “Man in the image of God” was the theme. “Let us make man in our image” was the text. The ringing of the choir of the Pearl st. A M E Zion church was superb and enchanting and thrilled the hearts and souls of the people. The Bishop,J W Hood,preached in the evening to a great congregation, from the words of Abraham to Dives. This was a most powerful sermon and abounded with pungent truths that must put men to thinking about the value of their souls. G W Clinton lectured in the even ing on “The progress rf the Negro f.r thirty years” at the North M E church. Dr. Jones the pastor of this church, on Monday m rniug. epjke in the highest terms of the t ffort of Rev. Clinton as being able, eloquent and great in thought. SIXTH DAT, MAY, 6TH, The tension was opened with de votional services I y Bishop J W Hood, Mr, Geo. W.
