Organization OF Male Teachers En-

With an. Excellent Program
West Virginia Institute. ~ =

institute, March 16.-The Hanen
CLUB, composed Of Profs. w. H.
Lowry, president; Chas. f. Mitchell
secretary; Austin w. Curtis and S.
Hamlin Guss, members of the facul-
ty Of the West Virginia Institute,
rendered very excellent program
at Hazlewood assembly hall, Sunday
evening, the main features Of which
were the solo by Miss Nina H. Clin-
ton, recital by Mrs. r. l.. Jones, both
of Charleston, and violin solo by
Mrs. E. M. Jones.
This was Mrs. Jones first appear
ance In public as a violiniste, and the
selections chosen for her initial per-
formance, while numbered among
the difficult ones of their composers,
were brilliantly rendered. Her play
ing Is admirable, the tnoe rich and
pure and technique exceedingly
good. 1t was not, however, the tech
nique or brilliancy and purity Of
tone alone that mark Mrs. Jones as
a natural violinste; but the wonder
full emotional conception and inter-
~ SIdLlOl OIL uSI S6lSCIlOuS.
Mrs. r. l.. Jones more than sus-
tanned her reputation as an elocu-
ZIONIST. "Hagar" was the vehicle for
the expression Of her histrionic tai
ents, and her portrayal Of the woes
Of the mother Of Abraham's first
the desert, unattended but by the
little Ishmael made a distinct i'm
preston upon the audience, as did
the solo Of Miss Clinton. Miss Clin-
ton possesses a soprano voice Of more
than ordinary range and sweetness,
more than compensating in these
qualities what may be lacking in the
way Of volume. Last night she was
at her best, and made a distinct hit
with "Ora Pro Nobis."
The other numbers deserving es-
pecial mention were the paper on
"Heredity," by Mr.. Austin w. Cur
tis, in which he pointed out some Of
our race failings; and the singing Of
Misses Lee and Fairfax and Messrs.
Lowry and Guss.

MUTH.ATED
Beaten Deah Are
the Slaves :
Mothers Congress Hears Of the CRU
elites Inflicted Upon the Natives
in Portuguese Africa by Slave
Drivers:

Washington, March 11.-A vivid
description of atrocities allegedly
perpetrated upon slave laborers on
cocoa plantations on, the islands of
Principe and st. Tome, Portuguese,
West Africa, was given In an address
on "Children Lives in Africa" by
General Joubert Ptenear, of South
Africa, at tonight's session of the in
ternational congress ON the welfare
of the children under the auspices of
the National Mothers congress.
The speaker said that he had
formed an association with the in
tent Of petitioning the Portuguese
government and on behalf Of the
slaves to establish missionary settle
ments to civilize and Christianize
them, and to act as q guard over the
slave trader and to report the atroc-
tiles to the association.
This seems to me-" he said, "the
only effective way of putting a stop
to this iniquity."
He asked the support of the
Mothers congress in his mission of
humanity.
After stating that ''the cruelties
meted out to these degraded human
beings on the mainland were beyond
description" General Pienaer con-
tinued:
"Children are torn away from the
breasts Of their mothers and sold as
slaves. Slaves in the employ Of their
taskmasters are beaten to death,
men, women and children are mutt
lated. Often after a native has been
done to death he is duartered, and
the different portions Of his body are
hung on trees to terrorize the other
natives"

Huntington, March 16.--The case
OF J. w. Perry, executor Of the will
OF stephen e. Baker, vs. the Grand
Lodge, Knights Of Pythias of West
Virginia, has been decided In favor
Of the defendants by Judge e. s.
Dool1ttle, Of the circuit court.
baker, member in good standing
of Esprit De Corps Lodge, No. 6, be-
fore his death willed his policy to
Edward McDaniels. The endowment
department Of the grand lodge re-,
fused to pay the claim on the ad-
vice Of the Grand Lodge Attorney J.
W. Chappelle, for the following rea-
sons: That a knights policy Ia not
part Of his estate; that member
cannot transfer, assign nor %hypoth-
ecate his policy, as shown on It's
face; the endowment paid upon a
members death Is for the baneflt OF
some blood relation, and not for the
benefit Of his creditors.
The case was tried twice before a
justice of the peace OF Cabell county
and the last time before the circuit
court on evidence and argument. At
the request of the court the case
was then submitted on briefs, after
considering which the judge render
ed his decision In favor Of the Grand
Lodge.
This decision will forever settle
the legality Of the stand taken by
the Grand Lodge that no member of
the order may will his policy and
that the payment must in all cases
be made to the rie&rest Of kin; IL
none, the policy reverts to the en-
dowment department.
In announcing his decision, Judge
Doolittle wrote Mr.. Chappelle the
following letter:
Huntington, W. Va,
March ~, 1903.
"Mr. John w. Chappelle,
"Charleston, w. Va.
Dear Sir:-After reading and
considering your briefs and that of
your adversary, Mr.. Perry, have
rendered judgment for defendant,
your client, and an order has been
prepared accordingly finding for de-
fendant and dismissing the case.
Two or three days ago, I returned
the file Of papers with the proper or
der to the clerk. l do not recelI the
style Of the case, but OF course you
have not forgotten the case. The
briefs submitted on behalf of your
clients were carefully and ably pre-
pared. In fact, l was surprised to re-
ceive from you and your associate,
Mr.. r. G.. Nutter, such able and ex-
haustive briefs in regard to the sub
ject matter Of this case.
Yours truly,
"E. s. DOOLITTLE."
