Whereas, The regulation of the disci-
pline which requires that pastors report
their missionary collection in open con-
ference, is an appeal to inferior if not
unchristian motives, and humiliating to
good men.
Resolved, That the rule be changed to
the following: "And when the charac-
ter of a pastor is examined, the bishop
shall require of him what amount he
has raised for missions"
There were several voices heard in
protest against the language of the
preamble and it was withdrawn. The
resolution, however, beginning with
the words, Resolved that" was pass
ed This marks an abandonment of the
old custom of vocal report of the
missionary collection in the confer
ences.
Rev. John w. Hamilton of Philadel-
phia addressed the conference on the
condition of the church in the south,
declaring that there were in the thir~

half the number white, half black. He
said that there were men in the south
who had the school in their heads, the
church in their hearts and the bank in
their pockets, and that they had raised
$500, 900 for the support of the church
and education the past year, but there
was great field for labor among the
| blacks, and aid was necessary from
the north.

A DESERVING COMPLIMENT.

The Chicago Legal News, published
at Chicago, ILL.,, the leading legal pa
per in the United States, in Its issue of
october Al, published the cuts and bi
ographica sketches of the Afro Am
erican members of the bar The cuts
are half-tonc, finely made, which show
the members of the legal profession
up in good shape. Among some of
the most prominent men whose cuts
and sketches appear are Mr.. Lloyd
G.. Wheeler, the first Afro American
ever admitted to the Illinois bar, and
the News gives him hearty welcome.
Mr.. F. L Barnett, Louis Washington,
Edward H. orriS, the News says are
the leading Afro Americans before the
Illinois bar. MIR. John G.. Jones, the
News says is the most fearless lawyer
before the bar of Illinois, and the best
kuown lawyer in the State. Woe
unto the man who steps on his toes,
and thinks because he is a colored man
he will not resent it He stands upon
the top round of the masonic ladder of
colored masons says the News. The
News devotes fully column to Mr..
Iones and makes HIM the greatest AT
70 American mason in the world and
the best known and the most fearless
LAWYER before the Illinois bar.
Miss Ida Platt is the first and only
Afro American woman before the llli-
nois bar. S Laring Williams, Frank
lin A. Denison, H. G.. Parker, James
E. White, John l.. Turner and others.
There are thirty-three colored lawyers
before the Illinois bar and from all re-
ports they are doing well They look
to be refine and highly cultured gen.
tlemen which is more than what The
Dee can say for one half of the shys-
ters around the Police Court of this
city.
The editors of the News are James
B. BradMell and B. Bradwell Helmer.
The founder of the paper was Najor
Bradwell and that has been twenty
nine years ago. The colored lawyers
of Illinois are respected and no doubt
if the people had the right of suffrage
in this city some of the District Judges
would come down little and do away
with some of their bombastic utterances
toward colored lawyers who are too
cowardly to resent an insult.

PENNSYLVANIA'S NEW AFRO
AMERICAN LEADER.
WHAT ORGANIZATION WILL Do.

Mr.. lanes L Goodall was born in
Louisville. Ky, September ~, 1883,
and attended school at Zenia, Ohio
Went to Philadelphia, Pa, in 1876
He has been prominent in politics in
his state and today he is recognized as
one of the representative citizens of
the state. He organized the Afro AM
erican League which is now composed
of 5000 citizens throughout the state.
A republican club is organized for him
in the city of Philadelphia, known as
the Goodall Republican lub.
January, 1893, 100 citizens former
members of the NJ. S. Quay lub met
and laid the foundation Of colored
republican organization. which would
lsbor for the ctlored men. Mr. Good
all was one of he founders of the NJ
s. Ouay club. In the fall OF 1894. the
club moved from It's quarters on Lom-
bard street to 18th and Addison, one
of the most popular locations in the
city.
On the 9th of Januar7. 1896, the 100
members from the NJ. S Quay club or
yanized the Goodall Republican club.
MIR. Goodall is promin mt republican
in the state and is regal ded as the
leading Afro American republican in
the state He is a fine looking man
anil possesses that quiet but shrewd-
ness Of wise and sue. essfuI politicians.
He is in the city selecting headquar-
tiers for his club which will visit this
city and take part in the Inauguration
of President-e Mckinley.
Mr.. Gooddll is thorough race man,
and one in whom the Afro American
can confde. | is hoped that the peo-
pie of Pennsylvania will see the I'M
portance Of standing by man like
Mr.. Goodall who is the right man in
the right place. His Afro American
League of 5000 members is power in
the state.

We have Just received recent num-

one-cent weekly magazine published
by Keighton Bros, of Philadelphia,
who seem bent upon giving the read
ing public great deal for its money
The magazine contains, amongst oIher
literary attractions, a serial story by
Bertha M. Clay, in that clever writer's
best style; several good short stories
by popular authors, including one for
the children; notes on the latest fash
ions, and series of particularly in
teresting articles on palmistry, by
Vera, which are likely to prove valu-
able to those who are fond of peering
into the hidden mysteries of the fu-
ture. The reading matter is all Of a
refined standard, and the magazine is
one that cannot fail to be highly appre-
ciated in the home circle. Subscrip-

The Manual of Photography. By
Benn Pitman and Jerome B. Howard.
The utility of shorthand in the business
and professional affairs of life is more
and more evident as times goes on
Perhaps the most striking recognition
of this fact lies in the establishment
of regular courses in shorthand IN the
high schools of almost all our larger
cities, There is however, no neces..
sity for any one remaining Ignorant OF
so useful an art, even though he has
no teacher, while so excellent a work
for self instruction as the Pittman-
Howard Manuel is IN existence This
book, though it has been in use for
over forty years, has been kept new
and abreast of the times by frequent
revisiors. The subject is so logically
and plainly developed that any one OF
ordinary intellectual grasp can readily
comprehend the principles OF the
system, and by fsi,hful practice &C;
corCing to the directions clearly laid
down, become a practical shorthand
writer.
