II Q o pRfbE:$1.00 per year QONCORa N. CU FRIDAY DEOl M JSR 7 1900. Single rtopy 5 cents.. I - . . ri.- : : ; : ... . IIUi. B. W. UuUliei'Lectirres .The Hon. B. W. Hatcher, the; State lecturer of the Masonic or der, dolivered his appointed lec ture in. the court hpuse Thurs day, beginning at 2.45, speaking for 30 minutes. He spoke from manuscript. .Indeed it is hardly possible for anyone to form ex- temoraneous sentences with that symmetry and beauty with which he clothed his thoughts. As he described the temple of Solo mon in the perfection of its parts manipulated with the skill of tho highest training, the rhetorical precision and ho fluency of fit ting 'terms which he brought forth seemed to make it easy to realize that that grand structure went up without the sound of axe or hammer. The figure referred to fehe building up of well round-' ed moral character. ' . - The Bible, he said, is the light of Masonry. The human mind looks inquiringly for that wliich i s beyond. Masonry digs deep into the quarry of Divine truth and brings out the beauteous ' character as ?f evolved from the 'divine mind. He touched upon that mystic power of Masonic training by wh;ch eye answers to eye and 'recognizes the friend though he is met in the ranks of a deadly foe or where words are not intel ligible, The ' world's famous edifices were long years in building, oven some measuring beyond a ceu fury, but the 'temple of Solo mon, tho grandest of all, was built in about seven years Thus Masonry teaches the art of moral training that facilitates tho do velopment of the moral character into a structuro o? spiritual sym metry and beauty. . Doubtless, too, the addre.ss had a meaning and a charm, for the craft that is not caught by those not trained in the mysteries . of the order. ' What Hurt the $egro. The Ethiopian, a South Caro lina paper, edited by Rev. E W Williams, a well-known colored . man, says in a recent editorial : "The greatest blow the negro has eyer, received, and the tone from whose damaging; effects .he will never recover, was given him by congressional enact ments. It was the, unconstitu tional imposition of the right of franchise, for which he was in no . way qualified. Ko govern ment has eer done a defenceless people a greater injury. We do not consider that those States that have passed amendments fo their constitutions abridging the privilege of some of the citizens in the exercise of tho right of franchise, have done he negro half so eat an evil as was done him by the national government when it imposed this right upon him." Tho Best Prescription for Chills And fever is a bottle ot Grove's Taste Jess Chill Tonic.O It irf simply iron and quinine in a tasteless form. No cure At thf Opera Ho!ss(Tojii-uU Ro'inmber ' tint uie Children of the Confederacy will show us what they can do tonight for tho love o' the cause they moan to perpetuate an'd keep, verdant in the minds of their generation bo- side adding their might to the comfort of those who have had to retire from the battle of life and are resting awhile before passing "over theiver.' -Remember too that they are children and cannot be made to wait nor will they be asked to do so. The doors o'f tho opera house will be open at 7:30 o'clock and the curtain will rise at 8 o'clock. The drilling wo learn has been gowd and "everything reasonable maybe expected of the performers. W-e are glad to learn that many tickets have been sold. Twenty-five cents is the j of soats except for tho peanut gallery which sell for 15 coots. There .will bo no reserved seats. Joe Munday Too Much of Everything but God. Joe Munday, who has had a various experience as actor, au thor, playwright, preacher, drunkard, Keeley Institute sub ject, -and at present an evange list, gave two -lectures here, Sun day afternoon and Monday night. He sheds tears, plays the monkey, and acts the drunk ard during tho course of his lec tures and then shows how expert he is in taking up collections where no admission feo was charged. As usual, our peo ple were very gullible and contributed largely to the cause. A home preacher would havo failed in getting two bits where Munday received forty times as much. His lecture on Monday night on. "There's a brand new baby in town" was said to be decidedly "bum," and the jokes ho told we're so stale that they had hairs on them." Not wishing to do Joe Munday any harm, we can't refrain from having a small opinion of this class of -evangelists. There is decidedly more of big "Ego" in this man's talk than there is of God.
