When it comes, the hour of twilight, When the birdlings seek their nest; Then Ithink of Kathleen's prayer time, And the words she loved the best. "God bless all 'my darling loved ones, Mama, Edward ; all that's. near." . Then there came a sweet, low whisper. Heavenly Father. "Bless my dear." Were there ever" woras so tender ? Was there e'er a prater so sweet ? Well I know, recording angels Heard the prayer for heaven meet. Still with little hands now folded, I had thought it was the end, When with still more childish homage She pronounced a loud Amen. Heavenly Shepherd, guard and keep her. Thy little lamb, her Dear's- wee girl, Fold thy loving arms around her, Till she reach the "Gates of Pearl."

Bishop Turner lectured here last Sunday night on "Africa." He has been there and went for a purpose. It is on his mind and in his heart that his people in the South must sooner or later go back to the land of their fathers, and he went out to see what kind of land it was. His narrative sounds like a Munchausen tale to those who have not read Livingstone and Stanley. The "dark - continent" - s is looming up and is now attracting the attention and the wonder of the j civilized world. Bishop Berkely said : "Westward the tide cf empire tikes its way," jand it did when he I wrote, but now it is rolling back to the east. Dr. Henry M. Field, the gifted editor cf the New York Evan gelist, is now in northern Africa and ; the weekly letters of his travels are full of interest. Ail that beautiiul re gion on the coast of the Mediteran-e:-tn is filling up with the best class of French, German and English civili 7aton. The historic land,,, where Canhage was and where Hannibal and Htnvlcar marshalled their mighty armies, is now the , peaceful, prosperous home of Protestant Chris tians. After a thousand years of sleep, northern Africa has been awakened by a new birth and. in the grorinj city of Borie, that was the ancient Hippo, - a magnificent cathe dral is beintr erected in memory of St. Augustine, the last great man ol Africa. , Some years ago Dri' Field travelled over that country and rode hundreds ot miles on camels and slept with the Arabs in the desert, but now he rides in palace cars to Jerusalem and rests in h6tels along his journey, and all along the lines are towns and villages and cultivated firms,- and all this wonderful change is the fruit of Chris tian civilization. The inscription on the statue of the good St. Augustine in the new cathedral explains it all : "If I do not perish I owe it to my mother." His lather was a pagan, but his mother was a Christian, and her constant prayers and pleadings and teachings made him the wonder ful man that he was the most won derful, perhaps, who ever lived, con sidering his life-work and the result of his labors. But for the negro, the Congo re gion seems to be designed by Provi dence for a permanent home. It is described by all the travelers as the most fertile basin in the world hav ing 200,000,000 of square miles as fertile as the valley of the Mississippi and the hill country adjacent abound ing in copper, tin and iron mines. General Sanford says it is destined to become the granary of the world and B shop Turner declared the climate to be exactly suited to his race. Well, now it is becoming more and more apparent, that they must and will go somewhere, i he conflict be tween them and us is irrepressible. It is widening and deepening as the years roll oru ...There is no rest, no abiding place, no security for the ne gro in the United States, neither north nor south. It is idle to discuss whose fault it is. The duty of our thinking' men, white and black, is to look the facts straight in the face and take some bold and decisive action. There is a race trouble now in North Carolina that has required the militia to suppress. The negroes who re cently were sent from Birmingham to! the north-west to take the places of j the strikers were not allowed to stay. From several towns in Ohio and In diana they have been banished. Even in Atlanta, -the . cosmopolitan, conser vative of the south, complaint is made in the newspapers that the negrots. monopolize the sidewalks and will not give way, and are growing more insole it and aggressive --Everyday papers publish new outrages and the usual lynchings that lollow them. I have been re reading "An Ap peal to Pharaoh" by Carlyle KcKin ley and am more than ever profound ly impressed with its truth, its argu ment, its philosophy. The author is one of the most advanced thinkers of the age and deals with the race pro- blem in such a fair, candid and con- siderate way that until his name was disclosed jt was impossible to sur- mise where he lived, whether north or sou;h, or in England or America. I am pleased to know thtt he is by birth and education a Georgian. By some it was attributed to Hinton Rowan Helper ; by others, to Senator Morgan, of Alabama, and by others to Rev. Josiah Strong. It is a book fit to be read and pondered by every patriot. Mr. McKinley proves every proposition as he goes along, and does it so tenderly and kindly and modestly that the reader is obliged to tall in love with him, and it not convinced, he admits that he cannot answer it. The negro must go, go somewhere, not in a hurry or at the point of the bayonet as did the Cher- okees, but he will go willingly and gladly when the ways and the means are provided. It may take ten years, or twenty years, but it is no very great matter so for as the cost is con- cerned. During the ten years just passed, over 6,000,000 of pauper for- eigners have been brought here from Europe and it will be nearly as easy to take 6,000,000 negroes away. Ten millions of dollars a . year will do it, and that is but a trifle compared with the peace and prosperity of the races. Just let the ships be ready in the ports and the money be provided to plant the families in Africa, say $100 per capita, and they, will flock at every port. They are troubled and so are we. We used to think that it was slavery .that kept immigration away from the south, but now we know that it was not. It was the negro, and is still the negro, and will continue to be the negro It is the negro that keeps the alienation be tween the north and the south, that makes a solid south, and a hostile north and will perpetuate the es trangement as long as he is here. Now, if he was not heie, does any body suppose that he would be al lowed to come here? If they were all in Africa and wished to immigrate would they be permitted to land at Castle Garden ? Of course not. Africa cannot do what China cannot. Races to be happy and prosperous mustrbe homogeneous. Of course they will not all go. The bid and the decrepit will stay and be cared for. There will be no forcible separation of families. Cer tainly no more than is now, for they scatter far and wide in their present condition, but it is safe to predict that the majority 'will go., wherever the means are provided and the gov ernment is at the head of the move ment. The large planters in the black belt ill perhaps be the chief objectors, for they i how fatten and grow rich off the negroe's labor, but they will soon have white labor in their stead . ana in tne ena it win prove profitable. ; j I sincerely wish that every think- ing citizen of the south would get Mr. McKinley's little book and read it. j 1 . It is by far the best and most grate- I ful statement of the race problem that j has yet been. written. It- is not only instructive and entertaining, but reads j like an essay of Mucaulay, and the 1 book will not be laid down until the !. perusal is finished. General Fitzhugh Lee said of it : "It is the best state ment that I have ever read upon the great subject it treats with so much clearness and ability. The work dis plays not only much historical re- search, but great knowledge of the . . ...j . 1 .1 ; question, and must draw the atten tion of all thinkers" to this great pro blem." The Boston Traveler says : "It is an audacious, ingenius volume and will repay reading and provoke thought," and Henry Stanley says : "The author is a seer of a type rare nowadays and handles his subject wisely." The price of the book is 50 cents, and jean be had, I suppose, at the book stores, or from the publishers.

Ask a person whether he was born at night or in the daytime. It he does riot know, bid him hot to tell, but to clasp his hands and that you will tell him. He must clasp the hands with the fingers interlacing. Now, some i people will do this by bringing the right thumb over the left thumb, and they were born at night. The same person will always do it in the-'same way. Any but his own natural way seems queer and unnatural. You will find that the person who clasps the left thumb over is surprised to find that any one can do U m any other way.
