DIR, I. 4. R SCHERER
ACCEPTS PRESIDENCY.
HAS RESIGNED AS PASTOR OF ST. AN
DREWS, CHARLESTON.
Dees Not Seek Congeniality As His Goal,
Being, Constrained By A Firm Con-
yictlon OF Duty.

de0Sy OF NeWOelIy COllSSS, " "AISn
position he was elected at the re-
cent meeting of the board Of trustees
in Columbia. At the morning ser
vices at St. Andrews Lutheran
church Charleston, on Sunday, Dr..
Scherer, in rendering his resign
alton, spoke as follow:
"Being constrained by firm con-
viction of duty, I hereby present
my resignation as your pastor and
beg that it be accepted as soon as
possible, consistently with the vel
fare of the church. In presenting
this resignation I respectfully ask
your careful consideration of the fol-
lewing brief statements:
"I do ROT take this step for the
purpose of pecuniary betterment.
The remuneration afforded by my
present situation is exactly $500 per
Z 4anuum in excess of the amount
(which is offered to me as president
4ef Newberry college.
81 do not make this change be-
cause Of any dissatisfaction with the
treatment that I have received as
your pastor. On the contrary, you
have shown an affection and devo-
ton that are beyond praise; you
have fairly lavished kindness on me
and mine, while the people of Char
lesion in general have shown an ap-
preciation OF MY work, whereof l
have felt undeserving, hut was more
the less grateful for that. In short
mo minister il the world could rea-
sonably desire a more congenial
field than I have had in Charleston.
SIS .'But, if ministers are to practice
what they preach, they ought not
TO seek congeniality as their goal.
The word minister means servant,
and it is plainly our simple duty to
s5erter the fields that seem to otter
the largest opportunities for service
This fact and this alone determines
me. Newoerry college stands tor
the Christian training of young
men who are to make the future
history of this State. Statistics show
that South Carolina needs educa-
ton, daily events are proving that
South Carolina requires Christian
education more than any and all
other influences combined. l regard
this opportunity, therefore, as the
largest and noblest that can come
TO any man. I call upon you to sup
port me in work which is yours
as well as nine-to lend your every
effort to a cause that appeals so
powerfully to patriots and to Chris
tians, to every mau who truly loves
Z his State and who desires to help
his fellows. lean not persuade N.Y.
self to believe that the interests OF st.
Andrews church will be sacrificed
By nv entrance into that sacred
sphere of duty. That work is God s.;
this work IS Gods: if He has called
me there, as I most firmly believe,
He will most surely provide for you
here.
From ny heart thank yoa Tor
yo.;r kindness. From my heart l
pray Gods heneGictior on yo1i, as
congregation and as individuals,
one and all. With assured con-
fdence co I look forward to the
fature OF this church whose faithful
members must never falter, but go
forward. And now, brethren, l

outpouring Of people to the Quinn
Chapel demonstration on Monday
night, and on account of the fact that
great majority of the people being
employed at that hour that but few
could be present DR. washington
was therefore amazed when. in com
pany with Bishops Grant and Smith
Rev. Murray, DR.. Cary, S. Laing Will
liams, Theodore w. Jones. and others
he turned to face an audience that
filled almost every space in the great
auditorium of Bethel Church. The
audience was largely made up Of
women and families, and some aged
people, who for the first time were
able to see and hear the man of whom
they had heard, but had never seen.
Mr.. Washington was again intro
duced by Bishop Grant, and spoke for
over an hour words of real heIpfuIness
and inspiration to the home makers of
the people. In point of real helpful
ness and spontaneous tribute of loyal
ty and confidence, this meeting was
quite as important as the great meet
ing of the night previous.
The ladies and trustees of Bethel
Church rendered Mr. Washington a
hearty welcome and a spIendidIy
served luncheon, after his inspiring
address.
The colored American., 1904-04-16

What may be called the crownfng
event of DR.. Washington's coming to
Chicago, was the complimentary ban
quet rendered to him by the local
Business Mems League on Tuesday
evening. This was the first attempt
by the colored people of Chicago to
serve a real up to date banquet out
side of one of the regular frst-class
white hotels. This was wholly due
to the fact that up to this time, the
colored people had or controlled no
place suitable for such functions.
Mr.. Alexander Stephens has
supplied this long-felt want in the
beautiful cafe owned by him and
known as 'The Waldorf" In this
spacious dining room, brilliant with
electric lights and with all the
twentieth century appointments was
the occasion of the largest and most
delightful testimonial of the kind ever
rendered a coIored citizen.
Eighty gentlemen, representative Of
the business and professional life of
the city, participated in this testi-
moniaI of confidence and esteem to
The colored American., 1904-04-16

of successful and hopeful men in al
most every walk of life open to men
of color. If Mr.. Washington were a
vain man, he might easily have lost
his sanity in the evidences of real
hero worship that uttered itself in
everything that was said and done on
this night that must ever remain
memorable to those who were a part
of it.
Dr. Washington took his leave of
Chicago for the east on Wednesday
morning He carried with him the
blessings of a people who are gener-
Gus enough to appreciate his message.
His gospel of thrift, clean living
pride Of self and courage can not fail
to abide with US as a part of the
spiritual forces that must make for
better men and purer women.

of the prospects of the National Con
Vention Of the Negro Business League
to be held in Indianapolis in August
next.
The crowning event of the occasion
was of course the address of Booker
T. Washington Although this made
the third address he had delivered in
Chicago, in two days, he spoke with
a vigor, freshness and fervency that
thrilled the entire group of the Chi
cagO men surrounding him.

on a variety of occasions, but I have
never heard him to better effect. His
tremendous earnestness as he appeal
ed to his black auditors to have faith
and to his white auditors to be just
was both contagious and thrilling.
If there were any in that vast audi

Mr. WashingtOn's courage, who had
not yet caught the inspiration of his
earnestness or comprehended the wis
dom Of his high purposes, they must
have gone away from that meeting

1t is a great, convenience to
have at hand reliable remedies
for use in cases of accident and
and for slight injuries and all
ments. A good liniment and one
that is fast becoming a favorite
if not a household necessity is
Cham berlain's Pain Balm. BY
applying it promptly to cut,
bruise or burn it allays the pain
and causes the injury to heal in
about one-third the time usually
required, and as it is an antisep-
tic it prevents any danger Of
blood poisoning. When Pain
Balm is kept at hand sprain
may be treated before the in
famation sets in, which insures
a quick recovery. For sale by
