Those who went to the Christian
church last night to hear Mr.. Burton
in his famous lecture 'In the Cor
ridors of Antiquity" heard one of the
best lectures ever delivered in the
city. Resourceful and eloquent, Mr..
Burton was capable in all the vast
scope of his subject. Starting from
the old Virginia homestead the lee
turer took his audience across the sea
to London, and after a stroll on the
strand and glimpse at London
bridge, 80 impressively realistic were
the descriptive powers of the great
lecturer that the listeners were en-
thralled to the extent that step by
step be tramped by Burton's side to
the top of Palatine Hill; glided
through the myrid of passage ways in
the great pyramid of Cheops; stood OH
the top of Mount Calvary and the
mighty Pycone overlooking the
ancient ruins of Karnak and Thebes.
With him the audience viewed the
great temples, tombs, obelisks, pyra-
mids, palaces and forums of the
Caesars, Pharaohs and Herods. The
speaker carefully lifted the veil on the
old life on the Tiber, the Jordon and
the Mystic Nile and brought his list
eners safely back to ,old New. York
harbor and left them beneath the flut-
tering folds of the stars and stripes.

Mr.. Williams Makes a Great Speech.

Hon. John Sharp Williams spoke to an
audience Of 1000 people at jackson Saturday
|evening He made great speech and a deep
impression on his hearers. He discussed
several Of the leading national questions He
|gave special attention to the tariff question:
the history OF both parties in connection With
this great matter. He discussed the govern
|ment ownership Of railroads in detail and
stated that he was unquaIifiedIy opposed to
|Such a SYSTEM He discussed the history Of
[the panics in the United States and showed
|cOncluSively that the republicans could not
Justly charge the democrats with but one
panic while a democratic tariff was in force.
Having covered the ground thoroughly on the
national questions he discussed, the speaker
came closer home, and in part, he said, in re-
gard to the repeal of the 18th amendment
All, but we are told, gentlemen, that the
constitution should be repealed directly.
Would that it could be. That is the wish Of
every man With White blood coursing through
his veins living in the south. But there is only
one way to do t---by appealing unto Caesar to
the people Of thenort1, and bringing in nation
al politics. And when you are appealing to
Caesar, you must solve the question, render
the decision? Are you willing to trust Caesar
lin this case7' Cries Of No, no.
Would not hold out to you the slightest
hope ofrepeaIing the fifteenth amendment for
|any honor, when know the difficulties in the
|Way. ! would be unworthy Of your respect
Tor confidence were to tell you that it could be
repealed, when the constitution declares that
amendments can only be adopted by q two
thirds majority Of each house Of congress, and
|nuSt be ratified by t1ree-fourthS Of the states.
|As congress is about tWo-thrds republican in
both branches, and as tf1ree-fourths Of the
Estates are republican, how DO you expect
that we can repeal the fifteenth amendment.
Il doubt thatlt could be repealed ii congress-

could easily come before you, my friends,
and write a little platform to get in office on,
and say Will repeal the fifteenth amendment
if elected. could also give you another plat
form TO put the darkies back in slavery; and
one would be as easy of accomplishments as
the pther for neither is possible
My friends, look at this in a purely pract-
cal way and treat it as do other questions.
| have never been called an orator, or a skv-
scraper, and thank God that am not, be-
cause DO not know enough about the skies
to scrape them, and besides feel safer on the
ground"
Mr.. Williams then discussed the race prob
lem very fully, and showed the nonsense in
much Oft.
We cannot see any wisdom, at this time,
by carrying 18th amendment question into
all sections. of the United States. Wherever
he locates it is not long until the White people
OF the section see the negro as the south
knows him. | his is convincing and thev
support our argument for the repeal of the
amendment. In many states the argument
for repeal ofthe amendment is considered
to be based uponrace prejudice and not actual
condition. We agree with Mr. Williams that
the Yankees had better be brought into this
question, by acquaintance of the neuro and
let them make the demand for the repeal, from
experience with the negro, than for us to in
vite them to help US settle a matter that MANY
OF them are not familiar With and care nothing
about it.
Mississippi has practically repealed the
18th amendment, and the road to a direct re-
peal hold out no inducements for travel This
is one Of the instances where it is wisdom to
let we'll enough alone
BE sure you are right then 90 ahead"

low temperatures that will prevail on

From that time to the end of the
month no very low temperatures will
occur and the last half Of the month
will average warmer than the first

I am not expecting dangerous
storms to accompany this disturbance

marked than is usual for September,
