could defeat the other, and the players
played ball from start to finish
Though the batting was of a heavy
nature and the dust binding, the field
work of both teams was excellent, and
errors were few. Up to the sixth in

though Conrad put up a great game

of the white man is the prosperity of the colored man. He therefore urged them to stand together in the common bond of citizenship for the upbuilding and advancement of a common country.
 He also urged upon his people to be frugal and economical and buy homes for themselves. This, he said, was the first step to happiness and good citizenship.
 The GRAPHIC in the limits of this article cannot give a full account of the Bishops most able and excellent address, but an idea of the trend of his thoughts and the tenor of his re- marks can be gained from the synopsis given above. The Bishops address was full of the truth, pre- sented without fear or favor, and he inculcated frrt5s tfffes ffff f1 1s ll7fs' nCGei Cl D eb WHOlGOOl-S elNt UcuCuCldl philosophy, that, we trust, will re- dound to the advantage of the color race in this community. The colored ed man can advance in the scale of civilization and in material prosperi- ty only along the lines laid down by the Bishop. Their growth has been retarded in the past by the lack of knowledge of these truths, and it must be gratifying to all lovers of their country to know that there is one among them who knows the philosophy of their advancement and the conditions they must con front, and dares to tell it to them iE language that cannot be misundef- stood.
 We wish that the Bishop would deliver niis lecture in every village and hamlet in the South The doc trines he breaches are sound and wholesome, and when the truths he teaches are put into practice, the condition of the South will be inn measurably improved.

One is sometimes inclined to regret that mankind ever learned to talk.

The attention of builders Is being draWn so the value of bamboo as building ma terial. The. great strength of bamboo holes is not at ali understood by the ma jority of persons 1t is stated on excellent authority that two bamboo poles, each of them 7-1O inches in diameter, when placed side by side, will support grand piano slung between them by ropes and that they will neither sag nor break under the burden. Bamboo will form poles 60 to 70 feet long and from to 10 inches ID diameter. A derrick, 26 feet high, made of 4 inch bamboo poles, raised two iron eirders, weighing together 424 pounds. The wonderful lightness of this material In nroportion to its strength has excited comment of late, and new uses are con. atantly Icing made of It. Scaifoldings or bamboo have the advantage of lightness and ,.srength It is predicted that this material will come into general use for such purposes. An additional advantage is tbat bamboo resists decay in water as we'll as in the earth, that the older and drier ie cets the more solid it becomes, and that ia can be grown for an incredibly small sum.

 DERRICK.
Wherein He Tells the Negro Race That They Can Rise Only by Merit, and ifThey WOuI Keep Pace With the Times. Must Dc
 Moral, EcOnom-
 icai anu IT,
 teIIigent.

Bishop w. B. Derrick, of New York, who is the Episcopate of this Diocese of the African Methodist Church, delivered a free lecture at St. Johns A. M. E. Church last (Monday) night to large audience of colored people, among whom were several white citizens.
 The subject of the distinguished Bishops lecture was the ''New Route" wherein the Bishop tells his people of "New Route" for the flu ture-the twentieth eentury-where the train of cars is drawn up at the depot and only those can get on board who are moral, industrious and intelligent, and that if the ne- gro race is to prosper4i in the future it must turn it's back to the pas t and adopt new standard of morals, manners and methods. The present condition he regards as a crucial one for the negro race. The great advocates of the colored man Charles Sumner, Abraham Lincoln, Scyler Colfax aud other great aboti- tionists-are dead, and the negro race, the Bishop claimed, is now forced to rely on their own resOurc les. Therefore the colored ace must raise up men out of their own ranks who will command the respect of their brethren, white and eolored, by their moral excellence, business sagacity and intelligence.
 What the negro race needs, thought the Bishop, IS an industrial education hands and brains train ed to perform skilled labor. . That education which makes idle dudes out of the boys and lazy and useless society women out of the girls was detriment to the race. Education is only of value when 1t teaches men and women to be useful. Education should not spoil the colored race for industrious handiwork. but should teach the men to be better farmers,
 mechanics and artisans, and the women to be industrious seamstress- es, expert cooks or intelligent teach CTS.
 The Bishop also urged upon his race to have less sympathy for law lessness. The guilty black and the guilty white should be alike punish ed, and the black race should be as ready to punish a negro eulprit as . white malefactor. The colored race he continued, could not gain the ful confidence and respect of the whit, man until they become moral ant industrious citizens and the champ ions of peace, law and order. Tn

NUMBER 45
OhfO,s Dilemma.

The situation in Ohio is one to be
 greatly regretted. The Republican
 party in it's State Convention at 1 Toledo committed themselves to the
 election of MT. Hanna to the Senate
 of the United States, and the elec- tion of the State was carried upon
 the pledge. It now appears that there are to be bolters and that sew
 eral members of the Legis- lature who have been elected declare that such pledge shall not be bind
 ing on them. MT. Hanna should
 never have been selected as the
 prospective Senator from Ohio. He is not a statesman in any sense of the word; his education and habits of life absolutely preclude the idea that he is fitted to creditably fill the position of Senator from the great State of Ohio. That he is politi cal boss and that he has shown great ability is generally believed, but this ability, that he is said to have shown should be credited in- tinitely more to Major Chas. Dick, the National Secretary of the Re publican party, than to MT. Hanna. The position in Ohio is unfortunate; for the Republicans of that State and unfortunate for President Mckinley. The Presi- dent is loyal to his friend, Mr. Han ga, and wishes him to be reelected, which is commendable from his standpoint, and if Mr. Hanna was equally loyal to the President he would know that by retiring from this active campaign that he would relieve the President of one of the most knotty problems which now him.

WILL ENJO|N, THE WATER COMPANY MUST NOT SHUT OFF THE CITY's WATER SUPPLY. Mayor Bell and City Attorney F. M. Hudson Have Gone to Lake Lake Village to Obtain An Order ofInjunc.
 tion From Chan
 cellor J. F.
 Robinson

A month ago when the city coun- cil refused to allow the Light & WaterCo.'s bill for water furnished, the company threatened to shut off the city's water supply. For one week the city was presumably with out water protection from fire. A suit of injunction was prepared by the city attorney The matter was temporarily settled by the bill for water being allowed at called meeting of the council.
 The city council met last night. The November bill for water fur nished vas prescpted, amounting to $663.95. The s0m of $553.95 was allowed in full settlement of the account. Mayor Bell vetoed the motion allowing the account for the same reasons that he vetoed other allowances, ito wit: "That the Light and Water Company is oot complying with it's cotract The veto was not sustained.
 The compahy notified the city Una unless it's September and Octo- raeeounts, previously disallowed, were paid the water supply would be shut off.
 These accounts were held up by Mayor Bell.
 The company then sprung a new bill on the city, bill of $500 for water furnished in flushing the citys sewers. The bill had not been allowed by the Sewer Commit tee.
 The city was notified that unless this bill also was paid the water supply would be shut off.
 Thinking that the demands of the Light & IWater Company had be- come too unreasonable, and that its attitude towards the city was too overbearing to be further endured, Mayor Bell determined to enjoin the Light X Water Company from car Srging out it's threats of shutting off N the city.s water supply. For that V f}afpose, he left for Lake Village thls morning to lay the matter be- for Chancellor James F. Robinson.
 Heretofore the majority of the council have over-ruled the vetoes s Of the Mayor.
 It is learned that one of the Aldermen considers that this last action of the Light & Water Company piles up it's acts of oppres- sion to such height as to prevent him from voting for its bills. He will in future vote to sustain the Mayors Yetoes in the matter.
 This may change the actions of the city council, and the end is not yet

KENTUCKY's DIsTILLERIEs.
The Scheme to Form a Combine Falls
Through.

Louisville, KY, Nov. A.-It is stated in
local distilling circles that the proposed
scheme of pooling the distillery interests
Of Kentucky is about to fall through.
As Is now thoroughly well known the
scheme was to form all the distilleries of
the state into one vast combine for the
purpose of regulating the output and cut
ting down expenses by reducing operating
forces one distillery of large capacity to
do the work. under the new scheme, of
two or three distilleries of smaller ca
pacity.
Eastern capitalists were going into the
scheme TO buy up dstilleries throughout
Kentucky and organize the combine in
conjunction with Kentucky distillers, who
did not care to sell. About 80 per cent
of the state had agreed to the proposed
scheme
The reason now alleged for the failure
of the project Is that the eastern fnan-
ciers were frightened off, because they
claimed that the Kentucky distillers had
listed their dstilieries at figures far be-
yond their real value. Another reason is
advanced in the fact that several Cincin-
natl distillers whose cooperation was
necessary to the success of the scheme,
refused, at the last moment, to go into
the combine.
