TROUBLE IN MT. CARMEL.
LAMKINS DEFENDED. HE RESIGNED
BUT STILL WANTS TO PREACH.

Editor of the BEE:
"WhereaS the troubles of the Mt.
Carmel Baptist church have found
their way in the public press,
through the energy of your alert
correspondent Louise in her letter
to Clara, which appeared IN your
last issue, l beg reply: she SAID
some very pointed and truthful
things on the subject. l think sIe
is mistaken, however, when she
intimates that there will be a
split in the Mount Carmel church
any time soon. On the contrary, |
think that the cause of the
trouble namely: Rev. VIM. Gray
will not remain with US long, owing
to which the above effect will not
be produced. The Rev. / am sorry
to say, has committed a series of
grave blunders since his connection
with our church as supply.
1st. 1t was represented to the
church that he said, that if we
would call him he would raise Ave
hundred dollars in a very short
time; but unless we called him he
would not, and wouldn't do any
thing. The church refused to call
him as pastor, but elected him to gil
the pulpit for the time being sub
ject to change at any time. The
Sunday set for the FIVE hundred
dollars only $50 was raised, we
have never fallen below $50 in the
past five years before on a rally
day. The first Sunday he came to
the church he called up two Of the
brethren who had been acting as
deacons, and ordained them with.
out the advice and consent of the
church which alone had the power
to say that 1t should be done. 1t
was contrary to the word of God
which says, "lay hands certainly on
no man."
Rev. Sandy Alexander and DR..
C. G. Meader. were requested by
the late Rev. Albert Bolden on his
dying bed, to preach bis funeral,
which was also the request of his
wife, but Rev. Gray refused to
allow them to do SO. Was it not a
matter of courtesy at least? 1t
was the dielng request of Rev. Mrs.
VIM. 81, Herrett that Rev. Lamklns
The Washington bee., 1891-05-16

who had been her pastor for years,
preach her funeral and as he,
(Rev. Gray did not know anything
about her; he would not allow him
to do so.
Rev. Herrett himself who died
three days after his wife made
similar request, Rev. Gray not
consenting his remains were buried
from the Zion Bapt. church. The
funeral was preached by Revs.
Lamkins and Howard, a notice of
which was sent to the Mt. Carmel
Bapt. church by the family which
he refused to read or allow the
church clerk to read to the church.
Both of the deceased were old and
much beloved members of the Mt.
Carmel church. Rev. Lamkins
preached the funeral of Miss r.
Chllds, one of our Sunday School
girls this week at Miles Taberna-
Gle, because her people did not
desire Ghat Rev. Gray should
preach it. Not a single deacon was
in the church when he had himself
installed. The church has never
agreed or known any thing about
his installation, more than what he
had put in the papers. When the
minutes of the meeting at which
he was said to have been called
came up for adoption at our last
church meeting, Rev. Gray sang
the doxology and dismissed the
church. l need not tell yOn what
followed, but the end is not yet.
hope therefore, in the interest
of truth and fair play, that you will
let the people or your readers know
the cause of the dissatisfaction of a
majority Of the members of our
church.
They are justly indignant at such
proceedings"

called at the Baltimore and Ohio
depot on last Thursday, where Mr..

Creole Company are quartered in
two pullman parlor and sleeping
cars. The BEE man and his escort
were ashered into the Office of the
great manager, who is as jOvia.
and kind as the sweetest Creole he
has in his company. Mr.. Jack gave
brelf history of his company; how
he kept them together and now they
are treated. He is Just as careful
about their apartments as he is
with the old colored lady whom
he introduced to the BEE man and

in his private Office, he invited us
to take a walk through the cars and
to our surprise his accommodations
were better than any hotel could
give. He has every convenience

A Japanese FloMer.shoM.

In Lafcadio Hearn's paper in the
Atlantic, The Chief City of the Province
of the Gods, he describes Japanese
flower-show. He writes.
Often in the streets at night, espe-
cially on the nights of sacred festivals
| (matsuri), ones attention will be at
tracted to some small booth by the spec
tacle of an admiring and perfectly silent
crowd pressing before it. AS soon rs
one can get chance to look one finds
there is nothing to look at but few
vases containing sprays of flowers, or
perhaps some light gracious branches
freshly cut from blossoming tree. 1t
is simply Il little Hower-show, or, more
correctly, free exhibition of master
skill In the arrangement of flowers. For
the Japanese do not brutally chop off
flower heads to work them up into mean
ingless masses of color, Us we barbarians
do; they love nature too well for that;
they know how much the natural charm
OF the flower depends upon its setting
and mounting, its relation to leaf and
stem, and they select q single graceful
branch or spray just as nature made it.
At first you will not, as Western
! at all; you are not yet savage in such
matters compared with the commoncst
coolies about you. But even while you
are still wondering at popular interest iu
this simple little show the charm of it
will begin to grow upon you. will be-
come n revelation to you; and despite
your Occidental IDEA of Subsequently,
you will feel humblcd by the discovery
that oil flower displays you have ever
seen abroad were only monstrosities in
comparison with the exquisite natural
beauty of those few simple sprays You
will also observe how much che white
or pale blus screen behind the flowers
enhances the effect by LAMP or lantern
light. For the screen has been arranged
with the special purpose of showing the
exquisitcncss of plant shadows; and the
sharp silhouettes of sprays aud blossoms
cast thereon are beautiful beyond the
imagining of any Western decorative
artist.
