sistant pastor Of the church. yesterday TO Trib-

ganized, and Miss Kock will undoubtedly do much
among the women. Just what her plans may be

NEW USE OF THE MARCoNI SYSTEM.

GRAVE APPREHENSION.

There clouds on the club horizon of Massa-

gated hues in the old Bay State. Georgia and
Massachusetts, after the recent conference held
in this city regarding the admission OF colored
clubs TO the general federation, parted with mu-
tual assurance Of affectionate consideration, and
the delegates serene in the belief that solution
OF the problem had been found, bore back with
them to their respective organizations resolutions
calculated spread peace like mantle over turbid
organizations.
The resolutions provided that The color question
in the general federation be settled without re-
organization by the strict application Of the doc
trine of State rights individual club membership

toward State rights by the fathers OF that august

voted in favor OF the compromise in the ratio Of

awaiting the decision of the executive board local
organizations are discussing the case vigorously,
