With, the Formal Opening of the Cornell Phillip Spencer Building Noted Nertla Carolinians Deliver Addresses. Correspondence of Thai Observer. Greensboro, Deo. 14. The .exercises i attendant upon the formal opening this I afternoon of the Cornelia Phillips Spen cer building of the State Normal and Industrial College for womenf planned by the president, faculty and students of the Institution were Interesting, ele vating, Inspiring. The assembly hall was filled to Its Utmost capacity by friends of the In stitution ; from the city, from other points of the State, the students, facul ty, members ot the board of directors, and representatives of the State gov ernment. Seated on the stage were noted: Messrs. Connor, ot Northampton, Gray, et Raleigh; Oattis, of HiUsboro; Parks, ot Henderson; Bally, of Mocksville; fcacy, ef Raleigh; Ex-Superintendent Mebane, of Catawba; State Superin tendent Joyner; State Treasurer. Lacy. Bev. Dr. Egbert Smith and Senator A. M. Scales, of Greensboro, President Winston, of the State Agricultural and Mechanical College; President Venable, ef the State University; President LAioy Robinson, of the Greensboro Fe male -College; President Charles D. If elver, of the State Normal and In dustrial College, and others. To the left of the stage, the College Glee Club, under the direction of Prof. Clarence R, Brown, at appropriate intervals, de lighted the audience with exquisite voeal music, while In the rear, Brock man's orchestra charmed with the witchery of stringed instruments. The exercises were opened with in vocation by Rev. Dr. Egbert W. Smith, of the First Presbyterian churchy of Greensboro, and a beautiful rendition of the "Chorus of Pilgrims" by the Collage Vocal Club. Or. George T. Winston, made the principal address. He had known Mrs. Spencer as a student at the University, as its president, and In after years, covering a space of more than 30 years, and his selection as the speaker of the occasion, was most appropriate. Dr. Winston devoted the first part of his address to thctdiscussion of woman; her influence from the earliest dawn of human life, and her educatory pow er in every realm of human endeavor, showing that whatever of education, in common decency, behavior, civiliza tion, religion, or any thing else that was uplifting, man had acquired, he owed It to woman, in the home, as mother, wife, daughter or sister. His basic epigram was "that the noblest mission of woman, was the building and preservation of the home, because this principle is fundamental, while that of technical education Is supple mental." With many illustrations, wise, witty, and severe, the speaker enlightened and charmed his attentive audience. The latter part of his ad dress was a splendid presentation of the peculiar appropriateness of the naming of the principal. dormitory of the State College for women, their stu dent home, after Mrs. Spencer, who was a "typical North Carolina woman. as wife, mother, grandmother, patriot and home lover, and State lover." He showed how she, was really the second founder of the State Universi ty, and how she had helped in affairs of State. In war and in peace, by her pen, her hands, and in close counsel with such men as Swain. Vance, Cam eron, .Graham, Rffln, Bridges, Scales, Davis, Morehead, for more than a gen eration. He paid a splendid tribute to her modesty, as well as her ability, by say ing that she never appeared in public, having always before her, the preserva tion of her sacred idea of womanli ness. Dr. Winston concluded his splendid address by saying that he paid a visit to Mrs. Spencer at her home in Cam bridge, Mass., sometime ago, and told her of the plan to name this building after her and the message : she sent, was for the students to read the 14th verse of the 5th chapter of 1st Timo thy: "Don't give It to them," said she, "but make them look for it." At the conclusion, a silver waiter holding five J20 gold pieces, was pre sented by the student body, to be ie voted to furnishing the reception hall or the new building. ! President Venable, of the State Unl- ; ed by going down a flight of stone verslty, was presented and made a ; steps. The matter of grading Church short address, speaking of Mrs. Spencer .street to the depot level is still being as one of the rebullders of the Unlver- I considered by the city aldermen. It is Slt' ... , n I learne(l tha' there are a number of President Lucy H. Robinson, of the'l applications for the various positions Greensboro Female College, next made in connection with carrying on the de a most interesting talk, giving delight- i pot business. None of the appointments ful personal reminiscences of her ac- ! have yet been announced. Forces of qualntance with Mrs. Spenqer. i hands are getting the tracks reidy so Other short speeches were made bv that when the denot Ik flni.ho.i ha state Treasurer Lacy, Superintendent of Public Instruction Joyner, Senator A. M. Scales, Hon. R. T. Gray, Speaker of the House of Representatives S. M. Gattls, and the audience adjourned to the new building, where the inspection was made, and the notable occasion In the history of this notable Institution came to a close. REV. DR. BOYD PROTESTS. He Disclaims the Speech Accredited to Him by Chicago Papers Ills Pur pose In Advocating Separate Pres byteries. To the Editor of The Observer: I am really afraid that If I don't send you a line, my old friends in North Carolina will think "that another good man has wone wrong" as you say In a recent editorial criticizing myself. The truth is that a good ed itor has gone wrong. Tou have made the mistake of thinking that Chicago dallies are as infallibly accurate in their news columns as The Observer. I never spoke of the war as "a. rebel lion." Tou can't make my friends be lieve that Lee and Jackson's picture, which came to me through the hands of Mrs. Jackson herself, hang m too conspicuous and honored a nlace in my home for that Let me tell you some thing about these , terrible Yankees among whom I live. They don't call It the "war of the rebellion" them selves. The children are taught that it was "a war of the States." And more, my little girl-came home the other day from school delighted that .Miss X. had said that Lee was the greatest general since Washington. This teach er Is a Tankee. , v ... I advocated-separate V Presbyteries for the negroes.- I-did It because I want to gee a national ..Presbyterian Church and nofr a sectloaaL church.

Then I can 1 meet my old friends and brethren aft tbt ' General Assemblies. I want to 'meet them, for sometimes I feel home IcKr for Charlotte and the South. But when you bold me up to Criticism and repeat false things about tne, I fear that If I. were to return I would be friendless In a place the memories of which are tender and dear to me.

Mr. 8tocksdale, who Is one Of the best known baseball coaches in the South, trained last year's team which won the southern championship for Trinity.

At Craven Memorial Hall Saturday night the annual lnter-society debate will take place, two speakers being selected from each the Columbian and Hesperian literary societies. Much In terest Is always taken In this event and this year Is no exception to the rule. The general public Is invited to at tend.

The preliminary for the choosing of the representatives of Trinity In this contest will be held February 17th. Each college has won one debate each and the struggle for tne victory this year will be earnest and Interesting. Quite a little amusement was caused at Trinity Park School Monday by the delighted antics and actions of the three Cuban preps, upon their first view of snow. A blanket of the white crystals covered the ground when they got up that morning and it was not long before they were disporting them selves In it. One of them, a youth of 15 years with an unspellable name, col lected several balls of It and put it away to take home with him next sum mer, and another, impatient, filled a candy box with the apparently dry flakes and mailed it to his mother.

KION CONFERENCE, Hiatorlo Colored Organisation Holding Its Annual ttomdon at CheterA Report of the Proceeding. Correspondence of The Observer. Chester, 8. C, Dec. I One of the oldest and most historic Christian or ganisations among the colored people In the State of South Carolina is the South Carolina Conference of the A. M. E. Zion connection now In session in Chester, which was organised St years ago' In the court house with nine mem bers by Bishop Joseph J. Clinton. The Conference was called to order Wednesday, Dec. lith, at 11! o'clock by Bishop T. H. Loniax. D. I)., of Char lotte, N. C. The presiding elders of the districts, throe In number, assisted the bishop jii conducting the devotional ex ercises. The exposition of the Scrip ture lessons by the bishop was very In structive, forceful and intensely prac tical. The call, the qualification and the 'work of the gospel minister, the bishop dwelt upon especially, enforcing upon ministers present the necessity of rcgulatingthelr own lives by the gos pel which he preached. In speaking of the lack of knowledge which some ministers have, the bishop said, "they have no knowledge of .God according to faith, they gather a ;vt of people together and break up the church, go away themselves, and drive the people away." The bishop cautioned the ministers agalnBt making public anouncements through the newspapers and other wise, during the year, of won derful achievements In raising monies and Increasing church membership, and then coming to the Conference with reports far below the previous announcements. He said the people were watching those reports, and the ministers standing, for verac ity, would be brought Into question; and when that is questioned, the min ister's usefulness Is about ended. . The Conference roll shows 120 mem bers, a large number of whom were present at the opening service, and partook of thi Conference communion administered by the bishop and the presiding elders.
