A Striking Contrast.

Bishop Potter, in a recent sermon, said:
1.-THE growth of wealth and of luxury,
wicked, wasteful and wanton, as before
God l declare that luxury to be, has been
matched step by step by a deepening and
deadening poverty which has left whole
neighborhoods Of people practically with
out hope and without aspiration. At
such time for the church of God to sit
still and be content with theories of it's
duty outlawed by time and long ago
demonstrated to be grossly inadequate to
the demands of living situation, this Is
to deserve the scorn OF men and the curse
of God! Take my word for it, men and
brethren, unless you and l. and all those
who have any gift or stewardship of tai
ents or means, of whatever sort, are will
ing to get up out of our sloth and ease
and selfish dilettanteismr of service, and
get down among the people who are bat

Anniston March 27.-(Special)-Two
prominent negroes of this county have
recently become considerably wiser from
an experience with New York green
goods men and are sadder and poorer
to the extent of $500 on account of their
dealings with the sharpers. The vic
tins are Rev. Andrew jackson Logan OF
Jacksonville, who was the republican
nominee for congress six years ago, ana
Jack Kirksey of Oxford, prosperous
blacksmith and deacon "a the colored
church at Oxford Alluring green goods
circulars, which have been flooding the
county for some time past, fell into the
hands of the darkeys mentioned, ana
they bit at the tempting bait offered.
After a Geographic correspondence or
some length with the New York sharpers
the negroes left about ten days since for
New York under assumed names. They
will tell but little of their experiences,
but 1t seems that they were met at Beth
lehem, Pa, by one of the green goods
men giving his name as DR.. Adams, who
piloted them to New York and allowed
them to swap $400 in good money for
strong tin box containing 81 bill and
big lot of brown paper. The negroes
were cautioned to leave New York as
quietly and quickly as possible and not
to open the tin box until far from the
city. These instructions were carefully
observed, and 1t was not until the
duped darkeys reached Washington that
they learned that they had been robbed.
They then had the New York police
wired to apprehend and arrest the men
who had fieeced them, but of course
there Is little chance of this. The ne
groes reached home the first of the week,
but having used assumed names while
away and keeping very quiet about the
matter since their return the facts in the
case have just leaked out.

From Mrs. Chapman, President MotherS'
Aid Society.
Captain Bowen will lecture in the
HYPERION theator next Thursday even
ing on "Custers Last Fight" The fol-
lowing communication is elf-eNplana-
tory:
Captain Bowen is so we'll known in
the city and state, through his long
residence, that it is not neces sary to call
attention to a lecture whose subject
forms one Of the most dramatic and
tragic events of recent years. Yet there
is a connection between the subject
and the charitable object, for which 1t
is given, which may at first escape the
public. The massacre of General Gus
ter's forces left many widows and or
phans, who have been, since his death,
the object of Mrs. Clusters devoted
care, and we are quite sure that she
would be glad that the lecture should
be given for a society whose aim is to
care for helpless mothers and little
children fighting against foes of want
and starvation as cruel and pitiless as
the saVages who nassacred him. The
managers appeal therefore to the pub
lie to not only crafty themselves, but
to aid thus in the work of this society.

of the Mothers Aid society, including
