The Boston Transcript says that COL

age one-tenth Of those from white
regiments. This fidelity to the colors
may be partly due to the truth of an
old army saying that the service offers
to the white man refuge and to the
colored man career. Men pass life
times in the colored regiments, con-
tented in the assurance of the retired
pay that awaits long service and good
records. Between officers and men
grow up long trust and confidence that

The most notable event in Afro
American church circles at Jackson

given In honor Of Archdeacon Edmund
Robert Bennett, who has the unique
distinction Of being the first Afro
American archdeacon of the diocese Of
Florida. AS rector Of st. Philips Prot
estant Episcopal church at Jacksonville
he has done work of both spiritual
and material uplift among our people
Rector Bennett is the only man Of ouI

the famous Nashota seminary. He
was ordained at Milwaukee, Wis, and
afterward established the Afro-Amer
ican mission at st. Paul, Mimi, which
under his leadership grew rapidly
Rector Bennett on leaving the mission
at st. Paul was called to Wilmington
N. c., to take charge Of st. Marks

which had run down In attendance
and had little or no means with which
to pay current expenses. Having had
considerable experience as an organizer
and religious worker, he soon revived
the interest Of the members Of the
church and perfected plans for build
ing up the membership and securing
means for the maintenance of the
church work. Rev. Benefits next OBJ

FULL SHARE FOR AMERICA
New York Bankers Determined to Get
in on the Finaneiering Of
Chinese Railroads.

London, July 10.-Representatives of
American bankers now in London will
leave for Paris early next week to make
another effort to reach an agreement
with European financiers for American
participation in the Hankow-Sze Chuen
railroad loan of S27, 800, 600.
The greatest reticence is maintained
with respect to the meetings held in
London this week. It is understood,
however, that the German and French
bankers came here under the delusion
that the Americans were prepared to &C
cept a compromise. They found, how
ever, that the Americans insisted on the
acceptance of the state department
terms and the breaking off of negotia-
tons was only prevented at the sugges-
ton, made by the continental repre-
sentatives, that they be given time TO
consult with their respective govern
ments. after which further meetings
would be held in Paris and Berlin. if
necessary. 1t is certain that the Ameri-
cans will not recede from their stand
taken at the London meeting and, If
necessary, viii insist that China shall
not sign the loan agreement until the
American claim is recognized.

MINGLED WITH PEASANTS
Gar of Russia Still Revered by the
Common People-Scenes at
the Poltava Celebration.

Poltava, Russia, July 10.-The impe-
rial visit to PoItava in connection with
the celebration of the bi-centenniaI Of
the famous battle ended today, and En-
peror Nicholas departed late this after
noon for Kiev.
The program today included a field
mass, celebrated on the battlefield by
Archbishop John of Poltava, in the
presence Of the emperor and troops, fol-
lowed by a ceremonial review and pa
Tade, and the afternoon was taken up
with the presentation of wreaths by
populations from various provinces of
Russia.
The chief spectacle Of the day was
the trOOping of the battle flags Of all the
famous regiments Of the army, to the
number of several hundred. They were
massed around the field altar, and after
mass were carried before the emperor.
Most of these consisted of but a few
tatters and furnished brocades bound
lightly around weather-worn slaves.
The emperor made an impromptu Wis
il to the quarters Of the present deputa-
lions last night, which gave his males
ty an opportunity of coming in close
touch with his people. For two hours
the emperor devoted himself to infor-
nal conversation with the peasants.
The emperor gave s., 500 to the poor of
POltaVa.

Mr.. Bryan endorsed this plank and
