“The Old Time Religion, It is Good Enough for Me,” MORE WORK; LESS POLITICS, ^ Noble Move Among the Race—Never , Speak Evil of Another—Other Race Sayings and Doings. In some parts of the South the Ne groes certainly appear to have their rights. In Halifax county, N. C., five of the largest towns have Negro post masters. One of the three county com missioners is a Negro. The only Negro Congressman is furnished by that coun ty. The solicitor and prosecuting at torney of the judicial district of the dozen or more counties, is a Negro, and the court crier is a Negro. In a num ber of counties in that part of the State, Negroes hold the offices of register of deeds, Superior Court clerks, and all county offices except sheriff. So far there has been no Negro sheriff in that State. It is also stated that the pros pects are that a Negro port collector at Newbern, N. C., as well as at Wilming ton, will soon be appointed by, the President. It would be interesting to learn from some reliable correspondent how they do their work.—The Chris tian Advocate. A noble movement among the colored race is the founding of the American Negro Academy. This Academy is an organization of authors, scholar’s, grad uates and writers, men of African de scent, for the promotion of letters, art,' literature and science; for the creation of a form of literary taste; to encour ' --•* age and assist scholarship; to stimulate inventive and artistic power and to aid in the publication of works of merit and genius. Among those interested in it are Dr. F. J. Grinkle, a graduate of Princeton; Dr. Alexander Crummell, a | graduate of Oxford, Eng., and an au thor of fine attainments; Prof. Kelly Miller, of Howard University, and a mathematician of note; Prof. DuBois, a graduate of Harvard and the foremost sociologist of the Negro race; Paul Law rence Dunbar, the poet; Prof. Scar borough, of Wilberforce, quite eminent as a Greek scholar and author; Prof. Hoffman, of Orangeburg, S. C.; Drs. ^ Bowen and Grogman, of Atlanta Uni versity, noted for their scholarship, and Bishop Tanner, of Philadelphia. A11 of these men are scholars and easily meas ure up to the higher standards. —The Freeman. We are anxious to see the day when the male population will crowd on Sundays to the churches as they did twenty years ago when they would sing “The old time religion, it is good enough for me. ” There are thousands of good men that have Btraved away from the church because of ministerial efforts to check evil with the ballot. Of late the rule is that the ministers are looking after the interest of the church and is leaving politics alone.—Southern Age. V We would walk five miles rather than ride in a street car in which we are compelled to take a back seat. We would never see a show or play, never mind how meritorious, if we are com pelled to occupy a seat in the peanut gallery, in fact, we would not go to any place where we are not wanted. If our people would adopt this rule it would not be long before we would bo invited to visitmany places which now know us not. —Recorder. Wherever a Negro lives, if he lives at all, it has to be among Negroes, and when he dies we are sure Negroes have tQ bury him. When you ask him to support a Negro enterprise he begins finding fault with Negroes; they are the ones that are always thinking hard about the white folks, insuiting them. Why? Because they haven’t energy enough about them to be their own and their children’s employers. —The Chattanooga Blade. The man who continually speaks evil of another hurts himself more than the one whom he aims to injure. One’s in fluence should be used for good aud when it is not the people will soon see what it is that gives rise to unholy pur poses and will immediately turn a deaf car to the calumniator and habitual < faulfinder,— The Christian Index. There are in round numbers in Amer ioa about 10,000,000 Negroes and of these about 8,000,000 reside in the South, where they and their fore-par ents have constituted nine-tenths of the 1 labor to make it what it is—the garden 1 spot of the world to all races save the black race.—Southern Age, The white man who closes every avenue of improvement against the Negro and then abuses him for not im proving, is as unreasonable as the tyrant who punished the Jews for not making hay out of straw, and without the straw.—The Standard. "What the Negro needs is more work and less politics. Give the Negro work, and he can clothe himself and family. Give him politics, and he is fed princi pally on promises.--Springfield (111.) Capital. A clean record can stand inspection and it becomes a tower of strength to any people. The wise course for us is to have such a record and thus fortify ourselves against an evil day. —Virginia Baptist If Negi-oes would stop fighting each other and fight the devil more and harder, other races of the world would have more respect for them. —Baptist Safeguard, The Negroes are gradually getting into the factories of the South. The time is not far distant when they will be in large numbers.—The New South. A man that works all week and gets his pay on Saturday night and goes to the saloons and spends it fpr beer and rum, hasn’t good sense, ■ The Greatest Offenders. It fa perhaps only tdo'truo that the greatest offenders in regard to social drink ing are uot the poorer classes, but rather those who maite pretensions of soine stand -ing- hn'“society."’ It is considered sp “swell” to have wine at affairs, you know, pven if a few of the .rattle-brained young fellows do get drunk.

Among the traditions likely never, to be i roved or disproved Is one that yel low fever originated in the holds of slave ships, where hundreds of poor wre:ches, stolen from their homes, wer i fastened down for weeks "without a breath of fresh air or the privilege of seei lg the light. When the slaver .dis charged her terrible cargo of misery and tilth an effort was made to cleanse her, and in this way tropical porta eaupht an infection that has lasted ever since. In a similar manner, tlioigh with more certainty, cholera is trac?d to the unspeakably unclean pil grimages to Asia. Both cholera and ye!l*-w fever seem, to have originated in c mditions so unwholesome as, to he nppj.Uing. Once generated and set in motion their distinctive poisons are in soms way conveyed from person to.per son, with different degrees of virulence, modified or averted by good sanitation, and at length driven out by a freezing temperature. It is but lately that the mieiobe of yellow fever has been found and identified. Its discoverer, an Ital ian physician named Sanarelli, now one of the faculty in a South American college, gives an account of his invcs tigai ions in the London Lancet. It was while searching for the germ at Monte videi that he caught the disease In a severe form. On recovering he pursued his ;erm studies in the yellow fever hospitals of Rio Janeiro and Flores. It was at the latter place that he first dis^ tinguished the yellow fever microbe, but iot, as he. expected, in the alimen tary canal. He found it in the blood and tissues. It is a rod-shaped micro scope creature, with rounded extremi ties, generally combining in pairs or groups. After experimenting with it on 2 000 animals Dr. Sanarelli believes that it affected the most of them, thou jh birds less than others. It was fatal in a few days to mice and rab bits. The doctor believes that it is a blood poison and transmitted by the air as well as by water. With the fact of contagion established, the proper way to d ‘al with the disease is to keep it out. .„ . .. ’ Tli 3 colored people captured the echo* *JL meeting in District No. 20, in Atoll son, Kan.

' It will grow and become use ful as one of the agencies toward the uplift of black humanity whose inter ests are identical the world over. * * * * * Among the books which have re cently come to my table and which is intensely interesting ami instructive is a work entitled “St. Peter’s true position in the Church c’early traced in the Bible," by Dr. J. Robert Love, author of "Roinanism not is Cbrist'an ity" and at present editor of the Jamaica (West Indies) Advocate. Dr. Love is a combative.writer, hits hard aad telling blows, but never strikes until he is sure of his facts. In this recent work of his he undertakes to prove and does prove, that the papal pretensions with regard to Saint Peter'8 position is merely pretension, and he adduces a cloud of witnesses to establish the truth of his conten tion that there is no good reason why the present successor of St. Peter or any of his predecessors should have been or should now be regarded either as infallible beirgs or the di rect representatives of the Almighty. The book should be read by every Protestant and Catholic clergyman. It will strengthen the faith of the former and perhaps convert and con vince the latter that Romanism is ex actly what Pollock said it was—a “theologic system laid ' upon the shelf.” As a reference book filled with valuable historical data it will prove to be an inval uable aid to students of theology and Clergyman. Dri Love is one of the blackest and most scholar ly men in Jamaica, and heisasproud of his beautiful black skin i»s a boy with his first pair of boots. I hope my friends in North Carolina and elsewhere;will send to West Indies and get copies of this book. It may be had for 2 shillings 2d, post paid, on application to the Educational Supply Co,, corner King and Tower Streetp, Kingston, Jamaica, B. W. I. It is well worth its price and will be a valuable addition to any library. . Connecticut W. C. X. 1'.

At the close of the League meeting of Amerioan Wheelmen ir. Philadelphia the Times of that city had an article from which wo clip the following: “It may be only coincidence tljat during the year in which the use of the bicycle increased almost in geometrical i regres sion the consumption of iiqudr in this country decreased to a wonderful extent; but it looks very much as if tlieie were ] some relation between the two facts. That j this liquor habit is growing weaker among 1 the American people is shown by the re cent statement of the Commissioner of In ternal Revenue that during the past year there has been a decrease of nearly 6,000, 000 gallons in the consumption of whisky and other spirits, and of '1,403,00$ barrels in the consumption of beer. “The bicycle is the enemy of the liquor habit for two reasons: It appropriates both - for its purchase and for its use the spare money of the young man that formerly | Went largely to the saloon-keeper, and it makes impossible overindulgence In in toxicating drinks, because it can be oper- 1 ated only to advantage by a strong-limbed and clear-headed rider. The men who own bicycles to-day are not the million aires, but the wage earners of the country, and their machines wore bought from the . money that they were enabled to save by economizing in some other direction. And what is more reasonable than that this , economy should be first put in practice by , cutting off the luxury of drinking? I “But the other reason why the bicycle is ■ cuting down the consumption of liquor—be- i cause it is rot the friendof weak and sodden men—is more potent nnd will be more last- | ing. The athlete in all branehes of sports nowadays is eschewing the use of lctoxl- | eating drinks, and the wheelmen, forming - the largest bands of athletes in this coun try, must be given the credit for the great est decrease In the consumption Of liquor. There are some riders who at first think they can drink deeply and ride strongly at j the same time; but tiiey are soon unde ceived, nnd quickly join the'great major- i ity of abstainers or light drinkers. The ' bicycle has been condemned for interfere c ing with the saerednoss of the Sabbath s and for introducing a laxity in the morals of the young, but it should be given full , credit for its assaults upon the oxcessive' ( (ise of liquor.” A School of DrnnkenneM. Drunkards are made in vnrious ways. Here is one. “Now, just watch thosd-chil dren. They’ll drink half that beer before they get home, and their mother will Said me fornot giving a good pint, and I’ve given nearly a quart,” said a bartender of a downtown saloon the other day, to a representative of the New York Herald, re ferring to two little girls of six and eight, thinly clad, who came for a pint of beer! They had scarcely got outside the saloon door when the one thnt carried the tin pall lifted it to her lips and took a draught. Then her companion onjoyed a few swal lows. A little farther on they entered n tenement-house hallway, and both again took a sip. “I have lots of such customers,” said the bartender. .‘‘Girls ahd boys and women form half our trade. Wo call itj family trade. It pays our expenses. But I tell you what—half the children who come here drink. That’s how drunkards are made. Their parents send them for beer. They see the old folks tipple, and begin to taste the beer themselves. Few of the ohildren who come in here for beer or ale carry a full pint home.

At flmt a copper pipe one and i half inches lit diameter, jointed with screwed union 3, was used, but the scouring action of the tide washed out the bed of the river, left the pipe un supported in tiro places and caused it to leak.

All our ow:i rigliteousnes is Indeed ijs filthy rags; and though we may live so as to appet.r to the world to be first in goodness, yet If we depend upon this for our entrance into heaven we shall surely be lost; for we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God. The only opportunity is now; today is the day of salvation. Strive now to enter in at tie straight gate, through living, active faith In Christ; He may come even the next hour to judge the world, and then It will be too latej. SELECTIONS. Shall these leet of mine, delaying. Still in the ways of sin be found, , . Braving sna-ea, and madly straying On the world’s bewitching ground? No, I was nut bora to trifle Life away In dreams or sin; No, I must not, dare not, stifle Longings such as these within. The greatest of all mistakes is, to live for time, when tuny moment may launch us intc eternity. “ ’Tls not for man to trifle. Life is brief. And sin Is here. Our age is but the falling of a. leaf, A dropping tear. We have no' :ime to sport away the All must be earnest in a world like One Sin i3 er ough to exclude us from heaven, but one drop of Christ’s blood is sufficient to cover all our sins. 0 Lamb of God, who takest The sin of the world away, p Have mercy upon us! The wages that sin bargains for with the sinner are: life, pleasure and pro fit; but the wages it pays him are: death, torment and destruction.. He that would understand the- falsehood and deceit of sin must compare its promises and its payments together. I come wit 1 my heavy burdens, 1 come with all my sins, I knock and the door swings open And Jesus lets me in. My sin dot arts, and my trouble Is lost in a blissful calm, This quiet icur with my Saviour Has soothed my heart like balm. COURSE OF SPODY FOR MINISTERS. OITXB A. M. E, ZION CHURCH.
