NEW ASSOCIATION FORMED
THE BUSINESS MEN OF SOUTH WASH
INGroN ORGANIZE.
Officers Elected and Committee APP
pointed to Draft Constitution
and Bylaws.

The business men of South Washington
met last night at the Grace Episcopal
Church, 9th and D streets southwest. and
organized the South Washington Improve
ment Association. The new organization is
similar to the citizens associations of other
sections of the city.
Rev. Charles Sontag, rector of Grace
Church, called the meeting to order and
stated the object of the association and
what it hoped to accomplish.
A large number of c.iizens responded to
the call which had been issued for the
meeting. 1t was suggested that the name
of Southwest Citizens Association be
adopted, but as there was an organization
known by that name several years ago, and
it could not be ascertained whether or not
it was still in existence. 1t was finally de-
cided to select the name mentioned in the
foregoing. officers were chosen, the cleo
ton resulting as follows: James F. Scaggs,
president; George E. Barber, vice presi-
dent, L. B. Gilmore, secretary; Thomas b.
Stephenson, treasurer
After assuming the chair, Mr. Scaggs
spoke of the need of improvements in the
southwest section of the city and said he
would do all he could to secure much need
ed appropriations
A committee, consisting of the officers.
was appointed to prepare constitution and
set of bylaws to be presented at the
next meeting.
Concrete Instead of Cobble.
Mr.. Scaggs. In the course of short talk,
said it would be desirable to have con-
crete take the place Of the cobble stones on
some of the streets.
why, in the northwest section of the
city, he said, miles of streets on which
there are no houses are concreted and why
can't we have the same here, where about
eight-tenths of the people own their
homes?'
The Rev. Mr.. Sontag placed the lecture
room of his church at the disposal of the
| association. The meeting adjourned to meet
at the same place next Tuesday night, when
work will be started in earnest.

that his Board now had calls from
three thousand churches for aid
from this fund. That there were
also enough calls from foreign
lands to exhaust all the money at
the command of the Board. He,
too, urged upon the preachers the
importance of the necessity of
taking collections for this work.

It is always done in a pleasant way

Another ridiculous food fad has beer
branded by the most competent authori.
ties. They have dispelled the silly no.
ton that one kind of food is needed for
brain, another for muscles, and still
another for bones. A correct diet will
not only nourish a particular part OF
the body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good your food
may be, it's nutriment is destroyed by
indigestion or dyspepsia. You must
prepare for their appearance or pre-
vent their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower, the
favorite medicine of the healthy mil

stimulates the liver to healthy action,

COLUMBIA FEMALE COLLEGE.
E. H. AULL, EDITOR.

The agitation of the removal OF
this old and honored institution
crates intense interest in the Con-
ference; it IS discussed on the
streets, around the church door and
ever ywhere: and doubtless the dis
cuss;ou in the session Of the Con-
ference this morning at 10 O'Clock
will be spicy and exhaustive. 1t is
a grave question, but one which
might have been avoided It was,
in Our judgment, a mistake to have
ever attempted to auction a college
to the highest bidder. The educa-
ton of the young is too sacred to
be brought into such an unenviable
position, and the manly, Christian
spirit of every follower of Christ, in
the way that John Wesley taught,
ought to repudiate the method by
which the removal of the college is
sought to be accomplished. Where
would such a precedent lead to?
What Institution of learning would
be safe if such a precedent were
established Really every incentive
to the upbuilding of great institu-
tons of learning would be nipPed
in the bud, because there would be
no pledge or assurance of perma-
nency.
But, as we understand the ques-
ton, the effort to remove the col
lege from Columbia is entirely with
ont ground, and the bids are too in
significant to be considered for one
moment by men who take a bust
ness view of the transaction. The
present building occupied by the
college could NOS be erected today
for fifty thousand dollars; to force
the property on the market it
would not command more than
twenty thousand dollars; the build
ing is mortgaged for about fifteen
thousand dollars; therefore it is
probable that the sale Of the prop
erty would do but little more than
liquidate the debt. Then it follows
that the Conference is called upon
to sacrifice property really worth
fifty thousand dollars for educa-
tional purposes for thirty-nine
thousand dollars and throw into
the bargain a most desirable lot in
the center of the city Of Columbial
That would be a bad trade so it1
appears to u.s. to say nothing of the
advantages of Columbia over the
towns that are competing for the
college. !
There is, however, a moral side
to the question. Columbia con-
tributed the larger part of the
money that went into the present
structure. The money was con-
tributed over half a century ago in
good faith ''for the maintenance of
a Female College in Columbia"
The charter of the institution so
declares. Are there no moral OBJ
legations involved on the part Of
the Conference? Can that body
now break, with impunity, the
compact made between the fathers
and the city? 1t does not seem so
to us. But many contributions
were made to the Twentieth Cen
fury Fund for Columbia Female
College. Do not those contribu-
tons strengthen, if that be posi-
bic, the moral obligation already
set forth?
1t is a grave question, and in
view of all that is involved the
Conference ought to think very Sc
riously before it acts. The matter,
in our judgment, ought never to
have been agitated.
