By Cable to The Telegram. - -
CiIsWntinople Aug . 12,-A pla-
card printed in .Turkish characters
was found posted on the walls of all
the ministries this morning. The -placard
demands that the system of gov
ernment in the Turkish Empire be
changed and threatens violence unless
this is speedily effected. It further
declares that unless this is done blood
will flow as during the Armenian
massacres. :
Minister of War,j Riza Pasha, has
sent the circular to all the Turkish
commanders with instructions direct
ing them to keep the strictest watch
upon their officers. -
This step is attributed to the increas

xTHE CHILD PREACHER.
A Girl Only Eleven Years Old Preach
es With Power.
Many of our people have doubtless
read of a colored girl only eleven
years old who has been conducting
religious services in various Southern
cities, preaching with wonderful power.
Some time ago she was in Wilmington,
and the papers of that city gave long J
accoiihts of her pulpit oratory and
power. -. : ; ,'. :
Claretta Nora Avery is the name of
this child evangelist, and although she
has never attended school a day in her
life, it is , said that her language ' is
faultless. It is a strange power the
girl has and can but be divine, for no
person could preach as she is said to
preach without divine power.
This wonderful child preacher is now
in Greensboro, preaching nightly at
Bethel ; colored - Baptist " church on
Maple street. , C
Rev. P. J. Jeffreys is the pastor of
this church,andhe tells The Telegram
that the reports of the child's wonder
ful power are not exaggerated. He
extends an invitation to any white peo
ple who may wish to hear the girl to
attend Bethel church. Special seats
will be provided for them.. The doors
of the church open at 8 o'clock; : ;

IJo man, who knows these facts.' culd
have expected a very large number of
townships in the country to vote this
tax at the first election. It is only a
question of time when every township
in the btate will adopt the principle
of local taxation. .
This-election will, show where" there
18 anv strength , at all for the move-
I ment and its Iriends will know better
at the next election, where to concen
trate their efforts.
All intelligent people know that with
out going beyond the constitutional
limit of 66f cents on a hundred dollars'
valuation of property, about 23 cents
of which is needed for the" State and
23 cents for the counties, no efficient
school system can be maintained. The
only way to go beyond the constitu
tional limit is by a vote of thepeople.
The towns and cities of the State have
learned this lesson and are profiting
by it. The contagion will spread
gradually. , There is no doubt about
the ultimate result. , ,
The cause of public education never
gets weaker by agitation. Let us keep
the following facts before the people:
1. No people in this country, have
yet.beien able- ta educate- themselv J
except through a public school system
supported by a local school tax in ad
dition to their State school tax.
2. North Carolina has less local tax
for schools than the Northern, Eastern,
Western, or other Southeth States.
3. That North Carolina has the short
est public sehool term in the United
States. : .
4. That North Carolina employs the
cheapest teachers in the United States.
5. That North. Carolina has a larger
percentage of illiterate native white
people than any other State or Terri
tory in the United States except New
Mexico. ' -
6. That North Carolina has 40,000
more native whites who cannot read
than the following eight others of the
thirteen original States: New York,
New Hampshire, New Jersey , Massa
chusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut,
Delaware and Maryland.
7. That while these factsV.which are
well known everywhere except in North
Carolina, may not disturb the illiterate
people of the State, yet they ought to
arouse the educated people of the State
to do something to remedy our con
dition. " .
I do not wish to impungn the motives
fv, iia
advocates of the local, tax in this elec
tion But certainly the intelligent
people of North Carolina will not be
satisfied for us to remain in our pres
ent condition.
Let those who oppose the only plan
suggested, submit their plans for inl
proving the schools.
The Crocail Club.
We acknowledge the receipt of a card
to the August Hop of this club at Bo-
gart Hall tomorrow night, the hours
being from 9 to.1. " . i
The Crocail is composed mostly of
the younger set and it is purely social
in its purposes. We learn that the
club j is negotiating for handsome
rooms which it hopes to secure at an
early day. Officers ; for , the . ensuing
year were recently elected as follows:
President, William D.McAdoo; Vice
President, J. Dewitte Kase; Secretary,
A. H. Staples; iTreasurerTv S. Hor
ry; Ball Manager, R. H. De Butts;
German leader, J. Simpson Schenck.
The Crocail will doubtless do much to
make life pleasant this'season for those
who fall within its lines.
