II you want to make the best use Of
any old hats that you may have. you
should take them to the Nicobar is
lands. There you will be received
with enthusiasm, for the people who
live in these islands have quite a pas
sion for them. Every one likes them,
and every one tries to get as many as
he can. On a fine morning the sea
roundabout these islands may be seen
dotted with canoes in each OF which
is savage, with nothing at all on but
strip Of cloth round bis waist and a
tall hat. and the funny part of it is
that old hats are very much more
sought after than new ones. The Nico-
bar natives regard new hats with sus-
picion and dislike.

ESTHER THE GOOD QUEEN.

The king loved Esther above all the
women, and she obtained grace and ia
vors in his sight and he made her queen
instead of Vashti." Esther ii, Il.
Every Bible student must have much
interest in the study of Esther, if for
no other reason. the fact that she should
he honored with the book OF Esther in
the Old Testament. But a still more
striking fact is that the book bearing
her name does not contain the name of
God. 1t seems to have been the purpose
of the Holy Spirit to let this section
chronicle the natural sequences of human
vanity without reference to any over
ruling power. God often wells Himself
for the sake Of letting one see the nat
uralness of His Government Suppose
some one says, II don't believe in inspira-
ton at all" What difference does it
make? His disbelief does not change
the operation of divine law. Wrong do
Ing bears it's own fruit. Whatsoever a
man soweth that shall he also reap.
This is a common law Of nature, and
needs not to have the stamp of inspira-
ton to guarantee its authenticity
The same is true of the book of Esther
Like Ecclesiastes IT is a book which
deals with life under the sun But
we are not to deal so much with her
book as with Esther herself.
Ahasuerus was king of Persia, the
greatest empire then in existence 1t
extended from India to Ethiopia, ana
contained l27 provinces or states. Never
did there reign more lecherous OLD mon
arch. In the third year of his reign
he gave a great banquet to his MOBILES ms
princes and the various governors OF
his many provinces. At this feast ne
was 20 show the glories of his kingdom
and his own personal glory. As some one
has said IN speaking of another, His
vanity was his glory OF course, AT
this banquet everybody got drunk. Al
the same time Vashti, the queen, gave
a feast to the women, but though this
was a feast for women there was not
half so much vanity as among the men.
The world has sandered woman in this
respect The vainest thing that walks
this earth is man. Woman is anXiOusly
proud. but man is stupidity vain. On the
seventh day Of the kings feast the heart
Of the king merry with wine In
this drunken state he ordered his serv-
ants to fetch Vashti. the queen, into
his presence that he might exhibit the
beauty Of her person to his reveling,
drunken company Thank God. he met
his match. Though she was his wife,
there We're some things She was not go

Our Gravest Problem.

Colonel A. X. Mcclure said that the
race problem is now regarded by our
statesmen as Nle gravest ever presented
to our people. The only solution of the
problem is 10 bo found in the united
energy of north and south to giYe the
colored man a chance for q livelihood.
There is not In this city any place for a
black man beyond the most mental posi-
ton. Our mechanics who vote to give
them equal rights will never permit them
within their circle to work by their side.
We must not only educate the black man
but the white man."
After H a. Mathews a trustee Of the
Fort Valley scnool, spoke briefly Of the
work being done there, the assistant
principal of the school, James II. Tar
bert made the concluding address of the
evening.
He told how impossible it was to think
of getting rid of tho negro problem by
emigration. THE only thing to do he
continued, us to recognize the black
man here and help him to help himself. l
believe that the black man can make a
noble history in the southern states where
he came from, and eventually the south
ern states will be the best home for negro
"a negrOs paradise.
II wish L could break down the preiu-
dice against him. 7 wish 1t could be
broken down In factories and the machine
shops and everywhere / think that Wher.
the blacks and whites in the south are
educated the prejudice will die out We
have got to lift up these people or they
will drag the white man down"
Letters were read from Clark Howell,
Of The Atlanta Constitution, regrettjny his
inability to attend but indorsng the
school, and from e. w. Clark, Of this
city, promising a contribution.
