Cleveland. is acting as president OF the con-
~vention, which Is attended by six hundred
delegates. In his opening address President
Schwan reviewed the work of the church
during the past three years and gave his
views on some changes he wished brought
about. One of the particular points he made
was that the tendency toward spending so
much money on fine church buildings and
the consequent drain TO keep up the run

end would not accomplish the good that
a smaller and wiser expenditure of money
in other directions would give. He depre-

commended that churches divert the major

needs OF the church work as he thought a
sure preventive OF poverty and Incidence
was thorough education along Christian

SQUABBLE AT ATLANTA
COLOR QUESTION RAISED IN THE
sUNDAY-sCHOOL CONVENTION.
City and State Law Finally Ignored
and Negroes Permitted to Sit
with White Delegates.

ATLANTA. Ga, April 1.-The race ques-
ton was a disturbing feature of this morn
ing's session of the international Sunday
school convention. 1t made its appearance
in two ways-the endeavOr of Georgia and
South Carolina negroes to place colored
men on the committee on nominations with
the whites and by reason of the fact that
the convention in permitting negro dele
gates to be seated with the whites is vio-
lating not only a city ordinance but a state
law which requires that the whites and
blacks be separated in all public gatherings.
The police called the attention of Col. Asa
G.. Gambler, chairman Of the entertainment
committee, % the matter, but after a dis
cussion il was decided TO let the delegates
sit as they wished.
The trouble came up during the selection
of delegates for the committee on nomina-
tions. When Georgia was reached In the
roll call "a negro delegate nominated f. r..
Carter. cOlored, Of Atlanta, as Georgia's
member on the committee. This was OBJ
jected 10 by Hon. John Nj. Green, Of At
lanta. second vice president of the a~ssocia-
ton, who informed the convention that
GeOrgia's choice was w. s. Witham. A
negro from South Carolina then placed in
~noinlbatlon a coioIed nan from his state.
Considerable confusion and excitement en-
sued. There were motions and counter
motions I'm an attempt to settle the matter,
and after a heated debate both whites and
blacks were elected to the nomination com
mittee. This matter was hardly adjusted
before the news that the police were at
tempting To- separate whites and blacks was
spread. This brought out a flood OF oratory
on the question from both white and col
oIed delegates. The presiding officer. Mr..
Green, said the matter of seating delegates
was made plain TO Northern delegates when
the convention was spoken of for Atlanta
and II Was then perfectly satisfactory TO
them. a conference was called between the
police ana Colonel Gambler. in charge of the
entertainment committee, and ii was finally
decided 10 let the delegates sit as they
WiShe The rest of tire morning session
was given over to the reports of officers.
The nominating committee reported the
name of Hon. HOke Smith for president at
4 o'clock and their finding was unanimously
adopted.
AT the night session e~ulogies were deliv-
cred upon the lives of William Reynolds,
of Illinois; Hon. Lewis Miller. of Ohio;

The outbreak of yellow fever at the
Soldiers Home at Hampton, reported
in our columns, and later advices OF
the existence of the deadly disease at
Phoebus naturally causes general
alarm to all persons close to the in-
fected district and these fears are, of
course. felt by s.because of our daily
communication with sections adj
jacent to it. That we will escape it,
however, seems probable if ordinary
prudence control us in the matter,
and to that end we presume that the
same strict quarantine regulations
will be put in force here, as has been
elsewhere, when it is deemed neces
sary by our authorities. At least we
we are assured through the Light,
that at Cape Charles. the principal
point of danger to us, that the ''offi
cials are taking all precautions posi-
ble' and will, it is presumed, take
s'official action when in their judg-
ment they are called upon to do so.
The latest advices are mo new
cases of yellow fever and no deaths,
and that the authorities in charge
of the epidemic consider the situa
tion encouraging and that there will
be no difficulty in combining the
disease at least to Phoebus.

why should it not be? 1t will be the

has been taken. that nothing that
ofrends good taste or is in conflict

stay away. but that cannot mean
that fair which has existed longer
than any fair ever has doue III the
State will go down under their dis

energy, see to it, we believe, that a
fair which has given them more
pleasure than any other ever has or
perhaps ever will, still holds a place
in their affections and will continue
to be upheld by their patronage. 1t
is the fair OF the people, begun by
them, continued by them, and
through them we predict, whatever
the obstacles which may heSet them,
will continue to live and prosper.
Since the above was put in print
