URGES EMIGRATION TO AFRICA.

Baltimore, March 2S.-The Rev
Milton Sparks, educational agent OF
the national Baptist convention, in
an address to a large meeting of col
ored Baptist preachers here last night
urged the emigration of the colored
race to Africa. He argues that the
negro was transplanted by force and
could not thrive as he should until
he returned to the land of his fathers
and that there opportunities for ad-
vancement in material matters and
the science of government would be
afforded which could never be the for
tune OF the negro in this country,
where the predominance of the white
race was constantly increasing, ow-
ing to immigration
After general discussion OF the
subject, a resolution was adopted
stating:
Let us seek to increase our popu-
lation by encouraging the colored
race of other countries, such as the
West Indies, Cuba and the Congo
Free State, to immigrate to this
country.
Since certain congressman think
the government has millions of dol
lars to appropriate to send us to
Africa, let us ask for $5,OO0,O0O to
aid those of our race who may desire
to migrate to this country"

A new postoffice rule has Just gone
into effect imposing a fine of 500 or
one years imprisonment on any one
who through carelessness or other
wise takes mail not belonging to
themselves from the postoffice and
fails to return it at once This ap-
plies to newspapers. as well as letters
and other valuable mail. People
when taking their mail from the office
should examine it before leaving the
building. 1t is but moment and
will save a deal of trouble. To say
that it is the postmaster fault will
cut no figure under this ruling.
