Minutes of Secession Capital Chapter.
 The November meeting of the Seces- sion Chapter was held with Mrs. J. E. Andrews at her home on Pleasant Ave- nue. The meeting was opened by a concert recitation of the Lords Prayer. About twenty-five members responded to roll call and the meeting was very enthusiastic. Several letters from monument associations were read and discussed and then the chapter made plans for lunch stand to be held dur ing the Street Fair. Mrs. J. E. An- drews and Mrs. William Perry were ap- pointed managers of the arrangements for the week. The ladies all agreed to assist in the work and are confident that the lunch stand will be quite a financial success.
 After the business session, Mrs. An- drews entertained the chapter at a most elaborate and delightful luncheon. The double parlors were beautifully decorated in palms and cut flowers and Mrs. Andrews proved herself a most charming hostess.

 The attention of the Daughters Of A Iut tor C iS earnestly called to an editorial of The Aontgom- cry Advertiser as follows:
 Help the old Confederates.
 The report of State Examiner Cor. man as to conditions at the Soldiers Home at Mountain Creek ought to ap- peal at once to the hearts and purses of the peeople of Alabama. There IS nothing wrong with the accounts, TOT all the money has been properly ex- pended and accounted for. The trouble is that the appropriation is not sum- cent to provide what Is absolutely needed The old soldiers there are de- pendent and helpless. Many, if not most of them, need clothes and some thing in the nature of delicacies would be very acceptable. Any money sent to Dr. M. l.. Fielder, the commandant, will be properly applied. Clothes sent | to him will go to those most needy | When the Legislature meets again, pet 1 ter provision will be made. but until then the State appropriation must be | supplemented by individual contribu- l tions.
 l I know the Alabama Division will do | it's part and come to the rescue. One | of the old veterans last summer wrote; | "The Daughters are so busy looking for | a stone to put over our heads. and the | Sons giving the Daughters ice cream. | .1tx "A hH I claims of the confederate soldier | living or dead.

the excellent business administration;
Of the present Democratic governor.
Edwin Warfield, is wholly devoted to
the advocacy of the proposed consti-
tutional amendments to restrict negro

the November election. The platform
declares as follOwS:
BY common consent. the only issue
in this campaign is whether negro s,lf-
frage. put upon US against our will by
force, shall De restricted and its power
for evil destroyed.
THE negro vote as it stands. today,
is perpetual menace to the prosperi-
ty ami peace of Maryland-a menace
to ouc very civilization-for it is ig-
norant. corrupt. the blind instrument
of INSCRIPTIONS and selfish leaders"
Just before the convention was
brought to close there were loud calls
for Senator Arthur Pue German, who
was present but had taken no part in
the proceedings.
Senator German responded with a
brief address in which he said that
If the constitutional amendment should
