Bluefields greatest need is a progress

A bill has been offered In the Legis-

Of land registration in this state. The
system has been thoroughly tested in
parts Of Europe and some half dozen
states in the United States, and said to
be greatly superior to the old system.
The Commercial-Appeal suggests
that 1t would be well for both political
parties to nominate candidates for the
Presidency in 1904 who will stay at

NARROW ESCAPE
From Burning Last Sat
urday Night.

Last Saturday night the colored
Methodist church In this town was
slightly damaged by fire, which caught
from lamp in theunflnished basement
OF the church. There was a festival
appointed for the evening, and some OF
OF the first TO gather placed lamp too
near the wall. and the heat ignited the
dry plank. The alarm was promptly
sent In, but the fire hal been extinguish-
ed when the company arrived.
The burning OF the colored Methodist
church In blacsburg recently, and the
narrow escape ofthis church has caus-
ed some OF the colored people serious
reflections. 1t seems TO argue that the
fates are against them. Some OF them
see in these fiery demons trations. sol
emn warnings. One OF the old timers
remarked that many of the members
did not keep their foot In the path, and
emo body could keep'em straight, and
no wonder the churches was getting
burnt up"
When reminded that many OF the
white folks wobbled considerable In
their gaits, also, and none OF their
churches had been visited by fire. She
seemed puzzled for IA moment, but said
'rhey better look out, big fire il
coming 10y and by sho nun, and den,
the white folks'll catch it,"
