The negro young peoples Christion
and educational congress is a move
ment which has behind it all religious
bodies and agencies at work among
tho negroes of America for their spir-
itual and educational uplift. This
congress is to be held in Atlanta for
five days, beginning August
next. and its central aim is to reach
the unreached young negro. A for
midable board of directors is at WORK.
and efforts are making to get 10000
young colored persons to hear the
addresses. and to buy the printed re-
ports. Emotional religion may not
have been of the highest character in
the negro, and may not have pro-
duced the best results in the younger
generation. Youngnegroes have come,
IL is said. to think that religion has
little to do with the making OF char
acter. Opinions held north and south
that the young negro amounts to little
discourages negroes and whites alike.
The congress will aim to combat this
opinion. The introduction of new
methods will not be advocated, but
the putting of greater spiritual force
into existing methods will be urged
The congress will aim also to show
the young negro that it is the Chris
tian man, white or black, that brings
blessings to a country, and wins
heaven at last. The list of those who
are working for the success of this
movement among young negroes in
cludes prominent colored workers II

receive the united support of the
race throughout the country in their
commendable efforts to increase the
status of the negro in the national

jealousies have nulified the political
strength of the negro nationally to al
most nothing. Concentration is the

MISTAKE OF THE PRINTER WAS CAUSE
OF KEEPING THE WEDDING A SECRET

A quiet little prank OF Cupid that
resulted in the tying of a matrimonial
knot that Will cause some surprise in
society circles, took place in this city
on the evening of the 18th Of February
last but owing TO the blunder OF some
printer I'm getting out the announce

by even the close friends of the parties
concerned until yesterday
The COntrac citing parties were Miss
Clara Hawkins. a well known clerk in
the surveyor generals Office and Lewis
Hobart Sweetser. a prominent cattle
man and former member Of the IegisIa-
ture of Idaho. Although the wedding
took place some two weeks ago the
bride kept her position under her
maiden name and but few suspected
what had happened until the delayed
announcements were sent out
Miss Hawkins and Mr.. Sweetser had
been engaged for several months and
the wedding was set for next fall but
while the groom was here on a visit
two weeks ago the two decided to have
the knot tied at once and a quiet cere-
mony witnessed only by two Or three
very close friends was performed in
the brides room in the Nottingham
