NEGRO AND INDIAN.
The characteristics of the Two Races
Discussed

Maj r. r. Motion of the Hampton Normal
and Agricultural Institute presented a
paper Tuesday evening before the Bethel
Literary and Historical Association on "A
Study of the Negro and Indian From the
Standpoint of Discipline" Speaking of the
origin Of the two races. he said:
MANY people have been led to depreciate
race distinctions and to think of human
brotherhood, not merely as great ideal to-
ward which Christianity is tending but as
an accomplished reality. But great as are
the physical unlikenesses of various races,
their likenesses are greater and humanity
is about the same in whatever race.
The clear perception of the threefod
training-mental, moral and manual
brought into being Hampton Institute,
which, founded primarily for negroes, but
ten years later admitting Indians, became
an interesting experiment. in inter-racial ed
ucation. Widely differing in temperament
and trait, the negro and Indian have for
twenty years studied and labored In har-
mony and mutual helpfulness.
The negro is emotional, demonstrative
quick of apprehension, self-cOnfdent, but
docile and very religious. The Indian is
self-contained, self-controled, slow in
speech and action, but tenacious of what
ever he has mastered, sensitive and proudly
defiant.
Past deception has made the Indian
timid, distrustfui and difficult of approach.
most blessed of all humanity. and is proud
of his race and traditions. the negro is in
clined to disdain anything distinctly negro.
Both races similar in conditions and
prospects. in intellectual and moral def
ciencies and in the disadvantages Of hered-
ity.
Due to the difference in history the gov
eminent of the negro is simple compared
with the Indian. The negro has been for
hundreds of years subjected to restraint.
The Indian died to prevent such restraint.
The Indian fears no punishment. When he
does wrong it is deliberate, and he offers no
apologies. He is thoroughly honest and
rarely breaks promise. The negro is we'll
meaning, not easily provoked, but his sense
of honor is less keen.
THE Indians problem is simpler than is
the negro's. With him 1t is a question of
existence by civilization and amalsamation.
Into the negros problem enter the factors
of race hatred, social prejudice and politi-
cal inequality All of this must be consd-
cred in our dealings with these two races"
Discussion was participated in by Jesse
Lawson, W. H. Craig. Rev. Ernest Lyon,
and Mrs. Anna Murray. Music was fur
nished by the Manual Training School Glee

Obstruction of Navigation.

During the past winter the spar buoy
which marked the wreck of an old boat off
Alexandria was dragged from position in
shoal water and left in mid channel, where
it was hidden from sight by the deeper
water. Vessels have run over it several
times, and on Sunday night last it was
steamer Sam'l ]. Pentz on her way to this
city from River View, and one arm of the
wheel was broken. Capt. E. S. Randall,
the manager Of the steamer Pentz, has

ton to the obstruction.

Sketch of Proposed Subdivision.

be allowed, with the provision that the
turning space be made 25 by 20 feet rather
than Is by IA feet which is considered in
