DO KEEP THE NEGRO BACK. Within the breast ,of many a one Wbo cannot bear to see The hated Negro prospering, This form of-prayer may be: Oh, Lord do keep the nigger back, Let darkness be his shroud; Heâsâ tripping close upon our track, Heâs ranting long and loud. Weâve sent some educated farmers To the legislative hall3 ÂŁ make some, laws, that when]enf orced, ould make the nigger fall;1 Weâve -cut his wages, clipped his vote, But he rises over all. Good Lord, thou anowest Thou hast made us first, And we are the cream of the pot; Do keep the nigger back, j Because for us heâs making things hot. âSelected. $: f The 16th session of the St. Louis (Mo.) district conference and Sunday* school convention was held in the Metropolitan Zion church Aug. 11, 1897, Dr. F. W. Puryear, in the ab sence of Bishop G. W. Clinton, acting as chairman. About 25 delegates answered to the roll call. Rev. R. M. Devine preached an awakening ser mon from I Kings 18:21. Bishop Clinton arrived and occupied the chair the second day. Rev. L. R. Brown preached at 7:30 p. m. and pleased all. Dr. Puryear spoke on the excessiveQmortality of the Negro and how to prevent it. The finance committee reported $30. Donated one dollar to Star. At 230 p. m., the fourth day, eulogies were deliv ered concerning the life and labors of the late Rev. J. F. Paige, P. E , and Mrs. C. J, Donohoo. The exercises were impressive, many tears flow ing. The presence of Bishop Clin ton added life to the convention. He, like Mark Anthony, is a plain, blunt man, who conmands respect. The bounds of the Missouri Conference must extend under him or he will know the reason why. The following appeared in the St. Louis Republic: âThe Scripture lesson by Bishop G. W. Clinton was founded on Isa. 40:8-31. lie called attention especially to the in fallibility of Godâs Word, quoting the words of Christ: âHeaven an earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away.â He also emphasized the power of this w'ord in the evangelization of the world. Illustrated by referring to tbe small beginning of the Church and its present power and, influence. The question was then asked i âAre we willing to do our part?â If ko, then we must wait upon God, not in slothfulness, but in activity, wmiting like the apostles of old for tbe promise of tihe Father; waiting for the endowment of the Spirit. âThe A. M. E- Zion Conference, of which the present district meeting is a part, embraces tbe States of Missouri, Il linois and part of Kentucky. It has 55 churches; a membership of 3,343; Sun day-school scholars, 2,335; money con tributed last year for all purposes, $62, 720, of which $09,220 went fbr payment of pastorsâ salaries.

Mclver preached a masterly sermon from Isaiah 62:1 The reports showed the district to be in a prosperous condition. Dr. G. L. Blackwell made a grand talk along the line of general church â work. It was agreed to remunerate Dr. R. H. Simmons with a suit of clothes. The next meetingof the con ference will be at Davidson, N. C. R. D.

ÂŤ _' ._j_ i Among the pleasant nuptial fes tivities that have occurred lately, there are none poesibly which have been more pleasingly witnessed-i both for the popularity of the con tracting parties arid the splendor of the occasionâthan the McCallum Ilood nuptials at Fayetteville, June 16th. On this day Mies Lillian Jam esena Hood daughter of Bishop J. W. Hood, was married to Rev. A. McCallum in Evansâ Metropolitan church, Fayetteville. The Host of eagar spectators bad filled the church almost an hour be fore the time appointed for the cere mony. The bridal party arrived at a quarter past nine and by the tune of Lohenghrein, marched to the altar of flowers. The arrangement was unique and beautiful.

The maids in fairy-like attire were next to enter, being led by Misses Eugenia McNeil and Evie Henderson, followed by Miss Fannie Barney and Misses Katie Telfair and Clara B. Scurlock coupled. Mies Gertie C. Hood acted the maid ol honor. Mr. B. H. Henderson was best man and escorted the groom, while Bishop Hood escorted the bride. The cere mony \vas performed by Rev. R. Alonzo Scott and Presiding Elder J. M. Hill. The venerableJBishop, fath er of the bride, pronounced the bene diction. The brideâs dress ⢠was ol white brocaded silk, with orange blossoms.

SECOND ARKANSAS CONFER ! ENOE DISTRICT. BY BEV. L. H. BAB SEE, V, E. Mr. Editor; I havo just finished up the second quarter on the second District of the Arkansas Conference. At Warren I found Rev. W. M. Jor dan in charge. This is a good charge and the people are Zidnites. The spirit of the Lord was showered upon them and the people shouted aloud for joy. Rev. Jordan is an earnest gospel preacher, a Christian gentle' man. We hope he mil contribute largely to every interest in the Con nection. At Monticello, I wan met by Rev. E. M. Martin, one of Zionâs old draf ters, and he is pulling, the vicinity after him. He assurasd me a hearty welcome. The next day was quar terly conference, the best place to find out how much tljp people love their pastor. It was jjrand. Goon, Brother^Martin, God 'vill bless you for this work is alright. I h&ve en couraged the church tc bring up ev ery interest of the Connection.' Holly Grove is attached tn Holi dayâs chapel under the watchful care of Rev. E. D. Washington This church is Dot in a good condition; it seems as though thes<*> people donât understand Zionâs rules and will not suffer themselves to4 learn Rev. Washington has done his duty and I cannot as yet say wha# effect it will have, for they will not accept the law of Methodism. We went from there: to Morrill, to Hollidayâs chapel. T iis is the finest Negro church I know of in any of the rural districts, and has as, good a set of members as I ever met.* They are true Zionites and do not sing that song, âTake all this world and give me Jesus;â but it seems as if they want a good portion of both, for they own land and a number of first-class stock, and yet I found them praying and striving hard for .he Holy Ghost. We enjoyed a grand quarterly con ference on Saturday a ad on Sunday the Lord opened the windows of heaven and poured out his choicest blessings upon us. The finances were fair. tisady is a placo wnere t*od preached such a wonderful sermon sometime past in the \ oice of a cy clone that it seemed to cause the peo ple to watch. I preached there not so strikingly as the former, but the Holy Spirit camq in itnd there was an old fashioned meeting. Rev G. W. Walters, M. D.; is pastor and he is carrying everything like a strong current of water. That church has the best Sunday-school I know of. The finances on all lines have been encouraged very much. Rankinâs Mission, W. G. Brooks is in charge. This; is a promising mis sion. The pastor Will builij a new church this year, pit is a faithful brother and a Christian gentleman. He says he is going to raise all the conference claims, , Pine Bluff is a progressive little city where Zion has struggled long to rise, but under the leadership of the earnest Rev. G. W. Walters, M. D., the cloud is moving back and the good work has begun. He is building a new church and it now bids fair to be one of the best points in Arkansas. The cl aims of the Con nection are being well looked after. Harlan, Rev. J. C. Williams is quite a genteel preacher. This work is not doing so well, as the members have been out of employment for sometime, but work has begun again and it will be better. All the claims are being looked aftei at this point. There is one mission in my district I have not been able to visit, but I am going there ju3t an soon as possi ble. Three new churches are being built in my district this year. This is the best outlook for Zion I know of. Let the strong men come out here and take this (State for Zion. The influence of Zion is being felt here. We have hundreds of mem bers who came from the States who want to come home. ' Come, ye God sent men, and let us suffer together and build up Zion. Bishop Holliday is sweeping through this country like a mighty storm and all who hear him say Zion can prcduce as stroag men as any other Connection. W> all love our Bishop and I love Church and will be loyal; that m âanâ I will work up everyi a teres', Pray for ub, - Jr THEV; C. E. Miss MEETING. - The V. 0. E. mass meeting held at Gailbraith church was \ huge success in every sense of the word both from a religious and literary standpoint. The paper by Mrs. A. T. Cooper on the "Twentieth Century Churchâ was indeed a master-piece of prophesy, logical and good common sense c o m b in e d, while the ad dresses of Dr. Childs ard Prof. Tumy were all that could be'(xpected from such Endeavorers as both of those gentlemen are. The solo by Miss Beoadus was especially fine which showed the lady to be possessed with a fine and cultivated' voice that might be envied; Miss Grace Addi son read an excellent paper on the subject "C.. E. in the Church." Upon the whole Gailbraith Endeavorers need to congratulate themselves on such an exceptional array of talent as was displayed on this occasion. Yours truly, J. 3. Colbert. LIVINGSTONE COLLEGE ITEMS, Wc acknowledge with thanks the compliment paid us by*;that leader of face journalism, the Stau of Ziojt, and hope we may always fulfil its expecta tion of us. Dr. J. E. Hood, M: D., who has his shingle out in Concord, N. C*, looked in upon us yesterday. Come again, Dr. Hood; we are always plensed,'to have our old friends and former students give us a call. The first student of Livingstone Col lege turns out to be one llev. Dickerson instead of a Miss Williams. Rev. Dickerson is a member of the Western North Carolina Confeience and was hero last week during its. session. The difference may be explained in the fact that this work had its. beginning in Concord, and it was there where Rev Dickerson attended; but Miss Williams, a lady from Newbern^was the first sin. dent from abroad to enroll in Salisbury The students may not oe aware of the fact that Miss Emma L. Thurber, one of our late arrivals, is a daughter of the minister who first proposed the estab lishment of this school. There are but few talk s more impres sive and by far more ins siring than the one Prof. Atkins gave ti e students and visitors on the occasion of the visit of the conference inâa body last Monday. The name of Dr. Price hi always inspir ing, but the memories of his virtues and his imperishable deeds when recounted bring forth feelings beyond description. Dr. B. F. Martin gave a very practi cal and helpful talk to the students 1 which will not be forgo .ten soon. Dr. Mart in seemed to st -ike a key-note not often touched by the speakers who visit us. The student li te needs to be told a great deal about i .selfânot about that which is to come al ter graduation. There is already too nuch air castl* building about the future and not enough of the looking out for aud the securing of thorough preparation in present conditions. Content oneâs self with the circumstances surrounding even if you have to âeat hog and homi ny,â for a3 he wisely sa d, âIt will pay you after.â . Bishop Lomax was or e of the original committee who formula ,ed plans for the establishment of this institution in Con cord; and we are glad tc have this bit of history and equally glad to give credit to a worthy worker who not only did that but paid part of his subscription by laying the brick in the foundation of Huntington Hall.â Weedy Living-Stone. A FAIR WARNING. Positively without reservation we shall cut off all delinqients after Jan. 1, 18^8. We give all one month to arrange the matter, and'we hope you will see your way clear to pay up and thus avoid the pain it gives us to drop your name from our list. We have been good friends for some time. Why not allow us to continue? Ii you say as much, then send us your subscription at once.
