the more hopeful or optimistic view Of
the progress of the race, we invite at
tention to the following sketch of a
truly deserving young man, which
demonstrates the value Of Christian
training as a stimulus to that thor

sional life.

Buford County, Tenn, educated in the
common schools of the county, and
taught in the county schools for seven
years. He subsequently entered the

I've Sunday school worker. He gave
the audience the benefit of some of his
experiences and some of his knowl-
edge of children as church workers.
His was an eloquent plea for closer
and better attention to the children.
Mr.. Crenshaw said, of the white boy
and white girl need the best teachers,
the best instructors and the best sur
f0dndings to make them good, our
boys and our girls need equally as
much. They are children, they are
human and they assimilate; thus it
behooves us as parents and instruct
ors to guard every condition and ad-
vance every opportunity to better the
instruction as well as the instructor.
The fact that the child of to-day in the
Sunday school will be the church of
tomorrow, has already been forcibly
impressed upon you, and this move
ment to-day is calculated to bring the
best results in future years" 81 have

Crenshaw, "from his boyhood days,
and certainly pride myself as being
one of his early instructors. If he has

After this address the manager an
nounced that the program would con-
clude with the singing of one of Mr..
Rosborough's compositions from &C.

dience joined in rendering this song.
The echoes of the music rang through
out the park, filing the air with the
strains Of music produced by the
voices Of the Christian workers who
had gathered to honor this occasion
The benediction was pronounced by
Rev. James Slaughter. Then the chill.

every direction through the park;
some climbed the hills, resting be

others found their way to the merry

MISS MOORE TO DEMONSTRATE
The appointment of Miss Elizabeth
Moore, of 926 Seventeenth avenue,
North, by the Nashville Gas Company
as one of their demonstrators with the
new gas stoves, is a distinct recogni-
ton Of the ability of this young wom-
an, who has long since been known as
one of the best culinary artists in the
city Miss Moore has studied under
some Of the ablest of the profession
that have come South. She deserves
this recognition and will prove by her
demonstration to the classes that will
take advantage of these lessons, that
she is a proficient teacher.
Miss Moore is to demonstrate every
day next week, at 1909 Church street.
On Monday, Wednesday and Friday
the public exhibition will begin at
$3.50 and continue until 4:90 p. m.
On Tuesday and Thursday they will
begin at 1880 and continue until $3.50
D. m. This has been so divided up in
order that every one will have an OPP
portunity to see what a gas stove or
range can do. The lessons, as well as
the exhibitions, are absolutely free.
The Gas Company has employed
heretofore only white demonstrators,
but they are recognizing in this ap-
pointment the ability Of our own peo-
pie. It is hoped that a large attend
ance will be present each day and help
to convince others that we believe in
the advancement being made by the
young people.
Miss Moore is a graduate of Fisk Uni
versity. She is daughter of Rev. and
Mrs. Geo. w. Moore of this city and
held an honored position for several
years at the school in Albany, Ga.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT Ir7

Judge Hargis has been discharged after the last
trial to which he can be brought for the killing of his
political enemies had begun. That means that he
stands before the law good, clean man, guilty of
crime. Perhaps he is such good clean, innocent
man. but sad to say one in the mountains of Ken
lucky believes it. If Iargs had had three fair honest
trials for the killing of Cockrel Marcum and Cox, and
had been declared not guilty in each by twelve
who voted not they felt, but according to the
evidence, then should have nothing further say
But that is just what Hargs has not had He is
one OF the most prominent Democratic leaders in
Kentucky. The Democratic party needed him and so
the Democratic party has used every means lawful or
unlawful not to that justice DONE but to see
that Hargis was freed, whether innocent or guilty.
In the first two trials the jury made up of
Democrats determined to free Hargis matter what
the evidence should be. In the last trial Judges
appointed for the purpose by Governor Beckham,

there little hope of getting fair trial, to Sandy
Hook where it well known no jury could be got

The success Of williamsburg Acad-
envy attracted the attention of certain
narrow-minded and sectarian spirits
1T must be a fine thing to run an
academy. Why should not we do it?"
And so they started a rival school
"the Institute" in the same town. In
raising money and getting teachers
they carefully concealed the fact that
there was a great academy, full OF
Christian and educational power in
Williamsburg already. They really
believed, We suppose. that nothing
could be Christian which did not be-
long TO theml" So by false pretenses
they started this other school, and for
years two institutions have been stand
ing side by side, wasting the Lords
money. and scandalizing the cause OF
Christ by unholy rivalry and strife
Gradually the first teachers of the
Academy passed away. and others VIII

better. The misguided men who start
ed It dropped out. and new teachers
actuated not by rivalry but by Chris

went on with less fighting, but still
wasting money by doing separately

STOP SPREAD OF TYPHOID
DIR. Cowiey Gives simple Directions
which Must be Followed.

This is the time of the year when
Berea is commonly visited with an
epidemic Of typhoid. By studying
carefully and observing accurately the
following suggestions much can be
done to prevent this spread of typhoid
for typhoid is a preyentable and there
fore an unnecessary disease.
/. Typhoid is caused by a germ
which is found in the mouth. stools
and urine patients suffering with
the disease. Therefore in every case
Of typhoid the spit, vomit and dis
charge should be sterilized. Place
one teaspoonful OF formalin in the
vessel with these discharges, leave
them stand covered Is minutes and
then bury them in the back part of
the garden. Never put piece Of news
paper on the floor for the patient TO
spit on. Flies get into It and carry It
on their feet to the table and deposit
it on the food and so spread the dis
ease.
2. Keep all flies out Of the room.
There is nothing worse than flies for
spreading typhoid. They are filthy,
lighting on any piece of soiled linen,
soiling themselves and then lighting
on food and water. communicating it.
Use screens and fly poison and drive
them out.
3. One. and only one, person at a
time should nurse the typhoid patient
and while she is on duty she should
do nothing else. She should not
touch the cooking or baking. After
she battles or otherwise attends to
the patient, she should carefully wash
her hands in soap and water, immedi-
ately after touching the patient.
4. The bed linen should be renewed
as soon as It is the least bit soiled.
Il should be soaked in tub of water
containing table spoonfuls Of for
malin, Cor at least an hour, wrinsed in
in fresh water and hung in the sun
Sc, eral hours. All towels and Other
linen touching the patient should lie
soaked and dried in the sun the same
way
1t is really a sin to neglect these
simple precautions for If they are care
fully followed typhoid fever will not
spread but will surely disappear from
the community. The neglect OF these
precautions spreads the disease and
causes thousands of deaths yearly.

DrY.-Lewis Nominee for Judge
in 33rd. District.

Judge James Hargis Of Breathitt
county has been declared free by
Judge Moody. The abrupt ending of
the trial was due to the withdrawal
Of the prosecution. Attorney Byrd
had made every effort to have the
case remanded to Breathitt county
for trial so that his witnesses could
be secured, but the court refused to
take any action. Being unable to get
the most important witnesses to come
to such an out-of-way place as Sandy
Hook, the prosecuting attorney an
nounced that he would no longer try
to prosecute Hargis. The court at
once declared the defendant free. At
torney Byrd regarded the trial as
a mere farce. and it is generally be-
lieved that the court was anxious to
have the trial close, while the prose-
cution was working under great diff
ficulties. 1t is said that Hargis has
spent $4,000 in defending himself
and friends since he was first charged
with murders of Marcum, Coclrill,
and DR.. Cox. The recent trial was
on the charge of killing Dr. Cox and
is probably the last time Hargis can
be tried for the killing of any one of
these three men.
