William McKinley of Ohio would he nominated \ for the "Presidency by the next Republican National Convention on the first bal lot. Was he nominated on the first ballot? Yes. Wifi he be elected November 3rd on the first ballot? Yes;, WfR “be be elected before the 'votes are all poled, as-die was nomi nated before the roll of States was called? Yes. How many states will he carry? Thirty-one. Will the silver craze be given the black eye by the 'American people? Yes. Will Hon. William McKinley and Hon. W. J. Bryan, both be sur prised when they'', readHhe ’ result ? Yes. One will be agreeably surprised by getting more electoral votes than he expected, and the other will not be surprised at being defeated but in getting so few electoral votes. The great victory which is sure to come to the Republicans November 3rd, will be but an insignificant compli ment paid to tbe greatest of the great campaigners, Chairman M. A.

George Young, the body servant ol two famous generals, died on the 15th at Danbury, Coun. He was a giant in stature and had been a familiar figure upon the streets of. that city since the war. He was born in 18'dO upon a planta tion in Loudon county, Va.,and his Aral master was Capt. Stevens Thompson Mason, who went to the Mexican war and was killed at the battle of Cerro Gordo. Mr. Young accompanied his •‘master” and was at hie side when he died. After the death cf Capt. Mason he made his way back to the p'nnta tiou in Virginia. He remained a slave in the Mason family until the second Seminole war in 1856-58. He wont to war again with a brother of his former “master” and stayed until peace was declared. At the outbreak of the civil war Mr. Young was the property of an ardent Southerner, who presented him to Gen. Stonewall Jackson as a body ser vant. His physique and the experi ence he had in the army made him valuable. He was with Gen. Jackson when ho was killed. After that he con tinued in the service of the Confeder acy for a rbort time. Ho was after ward owned by the Slidell and Lee families, both famous in the South, and was attached to the headquarters of Gen. liobert E. Lee. By reason of his great strength bo was employed in loading into wagons the bodies of officers who had been killed or wounded in battle. After a battle upon a Southern field Mr. Young was engaged in picking up the dead when the Union army cap tured him. lie became a Union soldier, and’went north at*the olose of the war. Rev. J. Beatty Howell wrote the fol lowing recently, for the Presbyterian Journal: “One of the most touching sights I ever saw in Brazil was the fu neral of a man who was born a slave, but when he died w as one of the judges and a professor in the law school of Sao Paulo. His master, w ho was also his father, gave him his freedom pa pers on the day that he graduated with high honors at the law school. He rapidly won a name for himself, not only as a jurist, but also as a poet. He was received in the best of sooiety, and married a white woman. Though he was known to say that ‘the three great est enemies of society were slavery, monarchy and religion, ’ he never made the Protestant missionaries any charge for legal services, and always gratuit ously defended those of his own race who were unjustly held in bondage, of whom there were many at that time. He was carried to his grave, a distance of some two miles, by the professors of the law school, his companions, with bared heads, followed*by a procession of some 400 students of the law school and others, also with bared heads. All the stores on the streets along which the procession passed were closed and the sidewalks were lined with people, many of whom were weeping the loss of the benefactor who had given them their liberty. He was a man whom the whole city delighted to honor.” The Knoxville (Tenn.) Herald con tributes this nugget: “Colored peo ple, as a whole, make more money than any other class of laboring peo ple in our country. But we are a waste ful and extravagant people, spending all and more than we make, with ljttle thought of tomorrow and what it will bring forth. As a rule the colored ser vant, who earns three dollars a week as a cook or house-maid will dress finer than her white mistress, who is. worth thousands of dollars. The col ored hotel waiter, on a salary of five dollars a week, will dress finer than the capitalist that he waits on and serves. We are equally choice in the quality and quantity of our food. Is it any wonder that suoh extravagance makes and keeps us poor and depend ent? Is it any wonder that we are a race of consumers and not producers?” SixLibe.ian emigrants have re turned filled with the usual tales of woe. This is becoming chronic and an object lesson should soon be learned. President Cheeseman, of Liberia, and the missionaries they said, did all they could for the unfortunates, but the re turned colonists say, like everybody else, they had very little money, no food and no work for them. Provis ions of all kinds are so high in Liberia that it is almost impossible for the col onists to purchase anything. Flour sells wholesale at $15 per barrel. The only cheap thing to be had is very bad whiskey, which is sold at four cents for half a pint: It is brought thereby German and English traders, and one drink is sufficient to put the most peace ful man into a fighting humor. Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, president of the National Association of Colored Women, is conceded to be one of the most brilliant writers the race has pro duced in America.. North Carolina Industrial Association Fair, Raleigh, N. C., November 10-14, 1896—On account of the above occa sion the Southern Railw ay * will sell round-trip tickets to Raleigh and return at rate of one first-class fare for the round-trip, plus 50 cents for one admis ion to the Fair Grounds.

In re vising the jury list for 1896 they placed the name of thirteen well known col ored men in the traverse jnry box. To oomplete the chain this event happened on a Friday. The men chosen nra; Peter M. Perkins, Edward H. Prndien, Primus Moore, Henry Mitchell J. F. Long, W. G. Johnson, P. O. Holt, Willis Braswell, J. W. Brooks, John Mann, Frank Disson, Howard Hiun lim and Tom Hill. These jurors are law-abiding and conservative citizens. The G. U. O. of 0. F.’s B. M.

McHenry Jones, of Wheel ing, W. Va., member of Ohio District Lodge, delegate to England. Joe Walcott, the pugilist of Boston, defeated William Quinn (white) in the seventeenth round of a glove oontestat the Empire A.C., Maspeth, onthel2th. The battle from the start was one of the swiftest ever seen, and was remark able for the territio punishment re ceived by Quin. In the eighth round bo was nearly out, but was saved, by the bell. He was knocked down in the tenth, and in tho thirteenth was sent to the door half a dozen times. In the sixteenth he was dropped once more and then began to tire. Bishop W. R. Derrick, one of the most successful politicians in this country, as well as ono of the able members of the A. M. E. board of bishopB is on record in the New York Sun as sayiDg that tho Southern Ne groe’s best interests lay in ignoring politics. “The race’s moral, intellect ual and material interests,” says he, “should first receive earnest atten tion.” ' Methodist writer and particularly critics of Wilberforce University, in view of Ohio’s comparative freedom from race prejudice, are urging the abandonment of the college plan and the restoration of the school to its jprea tirio glory a^ a theological seminary for tho training of preachers, -<»> Miss Rachel Walker has signed a con tract with Mr. Hammerstein, the vaude ville king, to sing in tho principal cities of the country. Her engagement with Mr. Hammerstein is for twenty five weeks, and at the close sho will re turn to the Paris conservatory to com plete her studies. The colored leader (?) who wro te to Mr. Hanna (and such a letter has been written) that “All the colored papers in this country were not worth one good white daily," was an ignorant, selfish, dog-in-the-manger ingrate, and, if possible, should be expelled from race membership. Lorenzo L. Burke, a prominent court stenographer, of Chicago, has broken down with nervous prostration, the result of over-work. He reported the Cronin murder trial and is said to have developed a morbidness from which he has never recovered. Mrs. .peninri wrigntrorter, m. u., Indianapolis, Ind., a graduate of the Indiana Medical College is one of the best equipped and most accomplished female doctors in the country. She may locate in the East, perhaps Wash ington, D. C. A Remand is being made in many sections of the country for a reorgani zation of an Afro-American Protective League on the lines once proposed by T. Thomas Fortune. It is *‘a good thing” and ought to be “pushed along.” The preachers in politics are getting it where the chicken got the ax 3 this year.

As Root era They Pot Men Far fa the Shade, It does not require any extended view Into futurity to reveal the tremendous possibilities of the new woman fas', com ing presidential campaigns. Already her influence Is felt and she Is recognis ed by the leaders of both great parties as a most potent factor In the fight. She has become an established and Indis pensable feature of the national com ventkm, and her services In the galler ies and wherever she can wave her handkerchief and show herself to the prettiest advantage are appreciated and eagerly sought for. “Give me one woman,” declared a party leader affil organizer at St. Louis, “and ha,re her pretty and loaded with the courage of her husband’s convictions, and I can stampede a convention quicker and harder than you could with a hiob of paid rooters and eight brass bands. All you have to do Is to place her In a con spicuous position, give her the tip when you want her to burst out Into sponta neous cheering and wave her but and umbrella with that Rrench thing they call ‘pretty abandongJT and she will do the rest Why, I hire known women to rehearse that spontaneous enthusl ahead and spend li TOPICS FOR SUNDAY, NOV. 8. “The Most Interesting Thing I Know About Foreign Missions.” Acts xvii. 16-31.

One of the most interesting things that can be known about foreign missions is the that, wherever the gospel goes the world around, it is not content to dwell, as other religions are, in harmony with the popular belief of the country, but it must have an undivided allegiance for itself. It was this truth that Paul so foroibly set forth at Ath ens. It sounded strangely to the oareless Greeks, accustomed as they were to accept every deity of whom they happened to hear, and to give it a place in their "Pantheon.”— C. E. Hope. The oourage to spgak, the bravery to en dure. and the pure unselfishness of It all, are found in no other service as In that of missions. “Where is your heathen brother? From his grave Near thy own gates or ’neath a foreign sky, From the thronged depths of ocean’s morn ing wave, His answering blood reproachfully doth cry. Blood of the soul! can all earth’s fountains i make Thy dark stain disappear? Stewart of God, awake.” - It is a little over 80 years stnoe the East India Company placed on record “The send*, ing of Christian missionaries into our east ern.possessions is the maddest, most expen sive, most unwarranted project that was ever proposed by a lanatio enthusiast.” In contrast to this the recent statement of the Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal, “In my judgment, Christian missionaries have done more real and lasting good to the people of India than all other agoncies combined.” I believe that missionaries as a class have oliinbed up into more spiritual regions than ordinary morta’s inhabit. When they return to us periodically to present the cause of missions to the home churches, I notice that they talk in a different spiritual language. It is more fully saturated with faith. Do we not need more of this spirit which has char acterized all the great missionaries of the cross? O for more of heaven in our daily lervice! j FAIRY-LIKE IN ITS BEAUTY la the Yildlz Palace of the Saltan In Constantinople. Beautiful beyond description is the Yildlz palace of the Sultan In Constan tinople. In treating of It an English writer says: Yildlz stands on the sum mit of the highest hill of the capital, and here before us lay a large lake or ; artificial river, covered with caiques and boats of all shapes, an electric launch among others. The gardens sloped to the lake on all sides, the lawns as green, the turf as well kept as In the best English gardens. Ex quisite shrubs and palms’ were planted In every direction, while the flower beds were a blaze of color. The air was almost heavy with the scent of oranga blossom, and gardeners were busy at every turn sprinkling the turf, even the crisp gravel walks with wa ter, The harem wall, now on our right, rose no longer bare, but covered to the very top, with yellow and white Bank- . sla roses, heliotrope, sweet verbena, passion flowers, etc. Thousands of 1 white or silvery gray pigeons—the ' prophet’s bird—flew In and out of a ! huge pigeon house, built against the walls, half hidden by the creepers, and the whole scene was lighted up by the brilliant eastern sunlight, in which every object stands out so clearly that one's sense of distance is almost lost. At the end of the lake is a duck de coy, where the Sultan often amuses himself with shooting, and far beyond this we could catch glimpses of the park slopiug away toward the Bos phorus, Beyond the pigeon house we entered a building consisting of one long room, filled with treasures.
