Tbe warm and sultry weather did
not stop an, enthusiastic number of
people who crowded the auditorium
or the National Religious Training
school from hearing the baccalaure
ate sermoa' delivered by Dr. All'
gustus P. Record, psstor Cburcb of
the Unity, Springfield, Mass., yester
day afternoon. This sermon will
lone be remembered by tbe hundreds
of people who beard tbe talented
speaker. ,
"Half a century ago Abraham
Lincoln struck the shackles from
millions of slaves. Later these ex
claves were given the right of suf
frage. Tbey received aa a gift that,
ought to bav been kept as a reward
for achievement and so took away
from tbe negro one great incentive
to lit hlmneif for cltlsensblp. We
may doubt tbe wisdom of this policy,
but the remedy Is not to take away
tbe ballot but to lit the negro for
Its Intelligent and efficient use. The
key to the problem today Is salva
tion through education," said Dr.
Record. .
l shall never forget the sane,
conscientious and fearless speech by
ex-Governor Glenn during a recent
tour of tbe north, at which time br
spoke in ,my church on the alms and
purposes of this school and the great
question of the day tbe negro prob
lem. , He showed us In an eloquent
nMoW the duty of the north to the
south In beating some of It burdens.
He sr. Id that the north one held
sit res, and bwauso negro labor was
not adapted to toe wauaine or ioe
north the owners of slaves sold them
tor a good price to slave holders In
the south. " '
- . "He told us about the beneficent

The influence of the kind Of educa

giving tbe negro in the south was
shown la the statistics given by him
rereallng the great progreaa this peo

ei-Uovernor Glenn and said that bis
mission to the north helped the peo
ple in that section to gain a proper
conception of the north's duty to tbe
southland.

WASHtriGTOTl CITY SCORED
CapJUl City Cornea in For Severe
Arraignment For Lack of Sunday
Laws Many Ministers Object to
Stringent Resolution and aa Ani
mated DincusMlon Result.
Atlantic City, May 22. The heresy
trials aud church union are the two
most important matters to come up
during tbe second week of the gen
eral assembly of tbe Presbyterian
church, which began here today. The
trial of Dr. Drown, president of tbe
National Theological seminary, is ex
pected to be taken up at once. Tbe
general feeling la that tbe preachers
not doctriually eound will be expelled
immediately. It la reported that quite
a number of ministers come under
tbla head and will be expelled.
Washington city received a aevere
arraignment at Saturday'a session of
the General Aasemly of the Prestby
terian church. Tbe report of the
Sabbath observance committee aaid:
"Tbe capital of our country has no
Sunday law, and because of tbe city's
prominence In our national life
should receive our first attention. On
Sunday, retail stores are open in
many parts of tbe city, building
operatlona and street repairs go on
according to the wjll of tbe contrac
tors,- newspapers are published both
morning and afternoon, and are cried
out through th streets. aa on other
days. Theaters and fire and ten ent
shows and saloons are in full blast.
"Social Sunday desecration baa
also very much increased in Wash
ington within the past eight yeara.
Dinners, .receptions, .teas, muslcsls,
golf, etc., abound, are elaborately an
nounced In tie papers, and among
the guests mentloued are constantly
seen, tbe ntmes of people active and
even prominent in church circles.
"Sunday is a popular .dinner and
luncheon day in Washington society.
Some w ajmingtouians place the
blame for it upon tbe -. diplomatic
corps, whose Continental Sunday' la
gaining ground with the smart eel of
Washington. Nearly every Sunday
sees half a dozen smart breakfasts
at tbe Chevy Chase club and an
equal number of big dinner parties,
also match golf games under tbe
supervision of the club."
The report of the committee on
Sabbath observance, with its strln
gent recommendations, aroused an
animated discussion. Many minis
ters proved to be oppos to what
they called an attempt to go bark-
ward two centuries and Impose a real
old 'bluff on tbe Sabbath" on the
twentieth century. Tby were for a
sane Sunday, they said, but not so
strict one as tbe report called for.
The barring of traveling on Sun
day, buying things because you hap
pened to want them, even if they
were unnecessary , and having no hot
meals so your servants could rest.
was declared to be absurd, and the
assembly was urged to Ignore fcucb
trivial matters." Others simke
earnestly In favor of keeping the
Sabbath aa the commandment or
dered, and the report, with Its eleven
atrlngent resolutions, was adopted.
Among the resolutions embodied
In the report wss one to the effect
that college prealdenta and faculties
be requested to abolish Monday
morning recitations so that students
would not have to study on Sunday.
It waa decided to organlte Sabbath
observance committees in each pres
bytery to co-operate with similar
committees from other denomina
tions, and with state and national
organisations In preserving the sanc
tity of the Lord's day.
I'nbllc officials are urged In an
other resolution to do their full duty
In enforcing Sunday closing lawa.
and Sunday newspspers are de
nounced In unqualified terms.
The t'nlted .Plates government Is
also asked to arrange that in time of
peace no warships Journeying up and
down the coast will have to move on
Sunday.

Manzanillo, the most Important port

Tbe leaders allowed no looting in
either town. Tbe new officials put in
courts and other civil offices, and tbe
old tax records were burned. The
new government is going on tbe same
as tbe old. The rebels are closing in
on Puebla, and the fall ot the city U
expected.
All telegraph and telephone wires
were put at Madero's disposal, to stop
the ' rebels' attacks on towns, but
bands operating in the south, west
and east pay no attention to him. All
have orders from Flgueroa to close in

Chaves- admitted tbat be carried a
message which probably would result
In a complete rupture between Fjgue

waa verbal and he could not make j.
public. He aard: . ' .
"Flgueora is maaslng alt his force
for an attack on Cuernavaca, where
the garrison la now composed of TOO

Flgueroa la rapidly gaining the Idea
tbat he can be president aud all his

Lexington, .May 20. Dr. Joseph
Hyde Pratt, state geologist and mem
ber of the exe( utlvo committee of the
Central Highway association, has
filed his report with President Var

tbe highway. Tho highway will be
built as. madned out, provided that
tho towns through which it Is to

of tbe various counties do their parts
Otherwise the route named may be
changed. f . , . , . ,
Dr. Pratt and his associates recom
mend that tbe 'highway rs.n from
Raleigh to Bmlthfleld. passing
through Garner, Auburn and Clay
ton. Several relocations will be re
quired in order to cut down grades.
From ' Smlthfleld to Goldsboro the
highway will follow the present pub
lic road via Princeton. The road
must be straightened, widened and
several bad grades eliminated. From
Goldsuoroto. Kington the highway
will follow tbe regular road via La
Grange,' Field and Falling Creek.
Several relocatfuna are required
From Kinston to New Bern the route
will go down Neuse river to Fort
Barnwell and via Jasper to New
Bern. From New Hern to Beaufort
harbor two routes are proposed and
both are recommended, one via New
port and down the east shore of New.
port river to Beaufort and the other
direct from Newport to Morebead
City.
Several deviations suggeeted by
Dr. Pratt are very desirable, espe
cially that of running the highway

Since the announcement of the can
didacy of Hon. Cha-les B. Aycock for
the United States senate Saturday, the
one suLJect of conversation in political
circles .about Durham has been, the
great battle of giants that will be
waged, for the nomination In 1912. -
The announcement of Aycock has
electrified tbe population of the city
and county who keep tab on the trend
of political affairs. Littlo groups
gathered on lawns and at the different
imbiic places about the city Sunday
afternoon discussed '.he sltuatlou with
gravity and wisdom, und sometimes
animation, pro and con.
If a vote on the matter wae. taken
at this time ft Is very probable tbat
Durham and Durham county would be
almost equallv divided on Kltchiu and
Aycock, and it ia between the follow
ers of ;hese two master politicians
that the fight will be made In this
county. ' With Aycock out of tv race,
the county would have, without doubt,
gone overwhelmingly for Kltchln in
preference' to the other two candi
dates. Aycock has hundredB of ardent
admirers in ;he county who would
vote for him for any office that he
might desire, and If a vote were taken
at this time it is very probable that
he would hare a alight lead over
Kitchln. .
; The situatjou waa eelng diamssefi
by a small group at a public place
early tbis morning, and it was decided
to take a s.raw vote on the candidates.
Every passer-by waa hailed and asked
t ) express bis preference for tbe can
didates. Tbe grea.er part of these

sional men on their way to their of
fices and stores, and In no case was
there a hesitancy in expressing a
choice. All seemed to have already
made up their minds and fixed their
choice on one of the four candidates.
Only one man was found that favored
Simmons and only one for Clark. The
votes for Kitchlp and Aycock were
about equally divided, with Aycock
slightly ;n the lead.

and shi engrossed waa the king lu bla
argument that apparently be was un

Suddenly, with an expressive gesture,
tbe kaiser turned away from tha king
and began talking to Lord Lonsdale
King George thereupon deliberately
urned his back upon the kaiser and
commenced talking to the Duke of
Counaught, without taking notice
white the knlser bid farewell to the
other members of the royal party.
Without further word with King
George the kaiser and knlserln en
tered the parlor car, while the king
disdainfully continued his conversa
tion with tb Duko of Contiaught
King George seemed sudWuly to think
better ot his position and went on
board the car, bowed gravely 'only
once to the kaiser and katserin, with
out shaking hands. He tben turned
his back upon the emperor and re
sumed his conversa ion with the Duke
of Coiuianght, and did not once look
around before the train steamed out.
The waiting royalties on the plat
form were obvlmtily aware of the
