CHARACTERIZATION OF AFRICA.
Mission Work Must Ee Conducted by
the Negro Race.

A largely attended and important meeting
of the home and foreign missionary board
of the African Methodist Episcopal Church
was held yesterday in the Bible House in
New York. The senior bishop of the church,
Bishop Fl. NJ. Turner, presided With him
were Bishop Saltus of South Carolina
Bishop Derricks Of Flushing, l.. l., Bishop
Abram Grant of Philadelphia, Bishop W.
J. Gaines of the western conferences and
Bishop Handy of the Virginia and North
Carolina conferences.
DIR. II. Bianton Parks, secretary of the
department, made his report. If Africa is
to be evangelical and redeemed, lie said it
must be through the colored people.
No race. said the speaker, was ever
so plainly marked by God to help another
as the negro race of America is marked to
help the natives of Africa. Three hundred
millions of Africans will in the next ten
years be brought face to face with civiiza-
ton. The negro is and must have Il great
part in this civilization and Christian de-
velopment of Africa, his fathe-land Left
to themselves the people will be either
crushed or demoralized. and meet the fate
that has already overtaken the Indian. 1t
is for the African Methodist Episcopal
Church and the American negro to save the
Africans from this fate.

REACHED An AGREEMENT.
Alabama Coal Miners Will Receive
Bette Wages

At Birmingham, Ala. yesterday, after
conference of ten days, the coal miners
of Alabama and the operators came to an
agreement in regard to the scale of wages
to be paid during the coming year. Both
sides made some concessions.
The main features of the scale are as
follows:
The minimum rate to be paid is As cents
with iron selling at s. and under and the
maximum is ~ cents with iron at $11 and
over. The day laborers in the mines get
an advance of ten, twelve and fifteen per
cent. varying according to advances re-
ceived several months ago. Thu idea is
to give them i twenty-five per cent increase
altogether over the wages they were re-
ceiving a year ago. when iron was selling
for $40 and under. The laboring day will
remain as at present-ten hours. Blue
Creek gets an advance of cents in its
scale.
