Washington, March At Is useless
To say that there has been any special
feature to the visit OF the Virginia
troops or others who came to Wash
ington yesterday and to-day for tho
inauguration. 1t has been splendid
occasion from every point OF view, and
no one will deny that this Inauguration
probably will never be equalcd in tho
history of the country There are
many reasons for this. Wilson is Vir-
ginia's own son, born in stanton. and
loved by every man. woman and child
of the Commonwealth. 1t has been
n long time since the Old Dominion
troops have been enabled to see q
Democrat inaugurated President and
If there was any doubt as to whether

ward the Presidents reviewing stand.

Versity students who had como TO
Washington to pay their respects to
Wilson and to have n good time while
performing the job. All these were
especially pleasing, added to which
there were many others OF one kind
and another
visit made TO Governor AIann's
headquarters Immediately after the
procession ended, and NirGinias chief
executive had returned TO his hotel
brought out the information that this
had been the best Inauguration IN
many respects which he had ever
known. He is proud that a real Dem
ocrat. Virginia Democrat. is now
safely lodged in the White House to
preside over the destines of the Amer
lean people for tho next four years.
There werc few others who could
be found after the parade ended who
had time or inclination to talk. The
few who would say anything agreed
with the sentiments of Governor Mann.
But the festivities are not yet over.

Dismal Inauguration.
Lincoln read his second inaugural
address to the smallest congregation
attending such n defamation in many
years. His military escort was small
fear CT covert violence. II was a
rainy, dismal day and the unpaved
Pennsylvania Avenue was n river OF
liquid mud.
More and more splendid became the
lnauBurauons from that time on, and
when Grover Cleveland's election
marked the return to power OF the
Democratic party, $1,000 was spent for
fireworks alone.
Mckinley was twice brilliantly and
smoothly inauGurated the local in
augural committees In power having
reduced tho matters of arrangement
ana preparation TO an exact science.
The Inauguration of Theodor
Roosevelt was Grander than any ever
held heretofore. The militia turned
out in force and civic organizations
were generously represented. Clear,
calm and balmy weather smiled upon
this ceremonial.

That is the most ominous feature

Who would be safe if young

some real or fancied wrongs by a
pistol shot? To applaud an act
so cowardly as to walk up to a
man sitting peaceably in a pub
lie place and shoot him without
remonstrance or warning, is to
raise a criminal to the position
of hero. 1t is a step backward
in our social progress, a disgrace
to our civilization and an insult

At ZION BAPTIST CHURCH
SOMETHING DROPPED"

Mrs. Oracle Vincent, a former
Columbian, but now of New York
city, where she has resided a
number of years, has set an ex-
ample Of church loyalty which
other people who, by change Of
residence, are, removed from the
church in which their member
ship is, could we'll afford to fol-
low. 1t was this way:
The first of last December the
Rev. DR.. r. w. Baylor, pastor of
the Zion Baptist church, received
an unsigned letter in which he
was told that on the first Sunday
in February 1913, something
would drop in Zion.' DR.. Bay
lor's wildestimagination gave no
clue to the source or the mean
ing Of the letter. So, deciding
that it was all a practical joke,
he let the matter drop.
1t was all cleared up however
when, during the last weeks in
January, he received from Mrs.
Oracle Vincent, whose member
ship is yet in Zion, a beautiful
individual silver communion set,
valued at $100, with the request
that he present it to the church
on the first Sunday in February,
1913 and that the time of presen-
tation be made the occasion for
the reunion of the older men,
bers of the church, those with
whom she had been associated as
a church worker.
Acting on the suggestion, DR..
Baylor planned and carried out a
great day at old Zion on the first
Sunday in February. In the
morning at II 80 o'clock DR.. A.
P. Dunbar preached an 3t!sl.:l.
Iy strong sermon IL $50 Dl.
R. B. Hall, "the young man elo-
quent' who leads the hosts at
the Union Baptist church, even
surpassed himself in a sermon
appropriate to the occasion.
Then the deacons from all the
colored Baptist churches in Col
umbia entered from a rear room
bearing the communion set, the
gift of Mrs. Vincent. Dr.. J. J.
Durham then delivered an ad-
dress in which he made plain the
appropriateness of the gift. At
night, Rev. DR.. Baylor himself
preached, urging his congrega-
tion to "let US therefore go on to
perfection.''
When it is stated that Mrs.
Vincent is a widow, is poor and
working woman, her gift to her
church is the more remarkable
for it reprepresents toll and sac
rifice. And when it be stated
as her pastor does state that, in
all the years Of her absence, she
has regularly paid her church
dues, her example becomes the
more worthy Of imitation and
emulation.

Zone Of the most startling
crimes of the times was commit
ted in New York city a few years
ago. A young man of enormous
wealth walked through a crowd
ed assembly in an amusement re-
sort, to a table at which a man
was sitting, and, drawing a re-
volver from his pocket, h O t
three times, killing him instant
ly. So far as can be learned, not
word was spoken on either side
nor was any gesture made by the
victim that could have provoked
the act. Rumors were current,
however, that the dead man,
who was a wealthy architect Of
some prominence, had been in
former years a friend and patron
of the lady whom his slayer af-
terward married. 1t is suggest
ed by the friends of the murder
er that the crime was committed
to avenge her wrongs and to vim
dicate her from aspersions cast
on her reputation. The princi-
pals in the affair may be dismiss
ed with little consideration. The
dead mans life is reputed to have
been Of a character that was like
ly sooner or later to bring him to
death. The murderer inherited
his fathers millions, which he
was squandering with utter reck-
lessness, and was living a life Of
i l. IL
