London.-The first stage of The
peace negotiations, which was regard
ed by diplomats largely as one of pre-
tense on Turkeys part, to avoid the
appearance of yielding to the demands
of the allies without pressure from the
powers, is now over. 1t is expected
that the second stage will begin soon
with the powers behind the scenes
pulling the strings, which will compel
Turkey to ccncede the bulk of the al
lies demands.
Turkey renounced in favor of the al
lies her rights In the island of Crete
at the conference Monday and prom
ised further rectificatlop OF the Thra-
clan frontier, but insisted upon the
retention Of Adrianople. The allies de-
clared that this was not satisfactory
and suspended the conference.
The conference may be resumed
either by notification from Turkey that
she has fresh proposals to submit, or
by the allies, on the ground that they
have communications to make to the
Turks.
1t is expected that the work of the
conference will be taken up again at
the end OF the week.
Rechad Pasha, before reading his
statement, made n brief speech say
ing that Turkey was prepared to give
further proof of her conciliatory spirit
but he regretted that the allies seemed
determined to concede nothing on
their part.

The Meeting at Black Hawk.

Rev. A. H. Williams, the pastor, in
the New Orleans Christian Advocate
of this week, thus writes of the re-
vival services recently conducted by
DR.. Henderson, of this place, in the
church at Black Hawk:
Dear DR.. Meek We have just
finished the revival meeting at Black
Hawk for the year 1918. A great aud
ience was present most of the time,
and there were eighteen additions on
profession of faith to the church. The
congregation generally had a mind to
the work and there were jntimations
for good almost from the beginning.
DIR. II. G. Henderson, of Lexington,
was with us from the third day unto
the finish, and. by the favor of Him
who helps, did captivating sermon
work. At every coming together he
was much enjoyed also in the social
circle.
"The conference chiefs are not
strangers at this historic location
preaching has reverberated hereabouts
for near century-but this LeXing-
ton pastor and ex-minister from st.
Louis, Brownsville, Columbus, etc,
evidently touched the high water mark
of any previous precedent IN pulpit
ministrations and left fine impression
among the people, which we think
shall helpfully abide as the years pass.
Most of the large congregation were
greatly benefited, and the few still
in the gloom of the valley
below will no doubt be aided as the
time goes by. The singers did finely
and much heart-interest existed; God
came very near, and not few sat
together in heavenly places. The
visiting minister enjoyed the occasion,
and delivered the message in demon
stration Of the spirit and of power, and
many times his words were eloquent
and beautifully sublime.

Mrs. Jane Brown.

The announcement of the death 0.
the good woman whose name is writ
| ten above, was not unexpected on tht
part of her friends and loved ones
Several years ago her health began tt
fail, and for many weeks prior to heI
departure it was apparent to those
who watched by her bedside that in {
short time the end would come. L
came on the morning of July 81. FoI
weary weeks she had suffered, ant
while the paroXysms were on sht
prayed that she might go, for she fel
that it was far better, and yet in thu
good time of our Heavenly Father shC
was permitted to live, and in the mids
of great suffering bear testimony tt
the good hope which cheered her heart
while rapt visions of beautiful scenes
and the sweet cadences of entrancina
music made her bedside holy place
as with subdued tones she told US OF
things that made us feel surely God Is
here and heaven not far awBy.
Mrs. Brown was the daughter oil
those sturdy old time settlers, Mr.. G.
E. Young and wife, to whom were
born Mrs. Pitchford, w. l., Mrs.
Brown, the subject of this sketch,
Miss Sue and Mrs. Z. F. Brown, the
two latter Surviving her. She leaves a
daughter, Miss Annie L. Brown, and a
nephew, Kennard, son of w. L. Young,
whose untimely departure is remem-
bered as having occurred some two
years ago.
She was a member of the Baptist
church at Lexington for 48 years, and
as long as it was possible was constant
in attendance on it's services, and faith
full in the support of it's work. The
beautiful home where the family has
resided for several years in loving as
ISOLATION, has been exchanged for a
home in the many-mansioned house
which her Savior has prepared, and to
which He has given her welcome. She
has heard the words from His lips,
Come blessed of my Father, inherit
the Kingdom prepared for you from
the foundation of the world, visions
of which wele granted her, and under
their charm she entreated friends and
loved ones to meet her there. On the
day before her departure, in an costa
cy of joy, she repeated the first verse
of Psalm l03, "Bless the Lord, Oh my
soul, and all that is within me; bless
His holy name" again and again re-
peating the last clause, "Bless His
holy name. She expressed herself as
being extremely happy as she looked
forward to the reunion with loved ones
and friends and to be ever with the
Lord in the land of the redeemed.
There is land of pure delight,
Where saints immortal reign,
Eternal day excludes the night,
And pleasures Danish pain.
There everlasting spring abides,
And never fading flowers
Death like narrow sea divides
That heavenly land from ours.

Can this endure beyond the grave?

Can this endure beyond the grave?
Is man so great that, living he doe:
greater grow? Then vain must be the
lives of those who never hear the plau
dts of the populace. No death is pre-
mature or life ill-used, if he who blest
with Life itself does strive, his talents
so to use, so live his life that he is fiji
to die.
The corroding touch of Tine crum-
bles to its elements the purest shaft
that human hands can fashion. And
the truth comes into our hearts that
only Right and Love and Duty are i'm
mortal. Men whose lives are linked
with these can never die. So fortified,
long after their names have been for,
gotten, they live not, in monuments
manifest to human eye, but in a spirit
that finds sanctuary in the souls of
men; spirit of peace purchased by
devotion to duty, which is an eternal,
an Interchangeable peace, and which
shall ever live and bless humanity
IT'LL the stars shall fade away, and
the Sun himself grow dim with age. "

Miss Minerva GoweR.-An Appreeia
ton.

On Saturday morning. just at the
dawn of a beautiful day. August %.
1918. at the home of her niece. Mrs.
w. d. Brock. the gentle spirit of Miss
Minerva Gowen passed from earth
back to God who gave it. Hers was 9
peaceful death. after a steady decline
of several months. For weeks she had
been waiting anxiously but patiently
for the release.
Miss Minerva. as she was loving.
ly called, was a member of one of the
finest old families of Tennessee, hav-
ing been born in that state September
10, 1927. She was IN her eighty-sixth
year. For more than twenty years
she was a member of the First Baptist
church of Nashville. 1t was in that
city, during the cholera epidemic years
ago, when so many were fleeing for
safety, that she so heroieally gave her
service, staying here and caring for
the sick and dying.
But large part of her life was
spent in Mississippi, where she was
loved as she loved. She rose above
the ordinary, and so adorned her char
acter with virtuse of Christianity as
to impress one with the beauties of
Christian life. Her unshaken faith
was the foundation of cheerful, hap
py life, and inspired hope and kept love
atiame. Through all the trying scenes
of life she magnitied the grace of God
and bore witness to its sufficieney in
life and in death. Blameless in char
acter, None knew her but to love her.
None knew her but to praise. -
| commend her beautiful life to
those looking for a lovely feminine
model. 1t was life of unselfshness
and great usefulness. Indeed, her
theory in life was that she was here
not to be served, but to serve; not to
see how much she could get others to
do for her, but how much she could do
for others. Such was the teaching of
our Lord who said He came not to be
to but to minister. We
miss her oh. so much, but our loss is
her eternal gain and Heaven is made
dearer since she has gone there. Let
US not think of her as dead, for those
who serve God as she did will never
die Truly ''She rests from her labors
and her works do follow her. "
May Heaven richest blessings rest
upon the bereaved ones.
A FRIEND.

Alexander's Memorial Day Speech,
Continued from page Al


flowing standard of Christianity. The
mind of mechanical genius has per-
fected TO a Eost efficient degree the
implements of modern warfare. The
world pays tribute to the ingenuity
that facilitates the maintenance of
what we are pleased to call civilized
war. Yet is this greatness to be
compared to the labors of that faithful
son of Britain whose heart lies buried
in the tangled forests of Africa, and
who fought the good fight and finished
the faith under the golden banner of
the Cross? Surely this was a fight for
peace. Should that dark continent
ever rouse from its barbaric lathargy
and take its place among the nations
of earth it will be because that noble
heart whose mortal shell withered in a
land of perpetual night shall be
transfigured into the magic chrysalis
which spreads its gossamer wings in
the dawning of a light that "shineth
more and more unto the perfect day" :"
Should we follow the helmet of Pc
ter, the Hermit, as he led his knights
of the Crusade into the land of the
NaZarene, we would know that his
victory was not against the physical
proWess of the Moslem but against the
Moslem's god. Should the fall of
Adrianople be ever spread upon the
chronicles of Time, 1t will not be to
show the desperate surrender of sUarv-
ing bodies to the armed god of Battles,
but the capitulation of starving souls
to King who promises peace to all
His subjects. Above the waning
Crescent CLEANS the Cross.
How fitting it is that we should as
semble to talk of peace in sanctuary
dedicated to the Prince of Peace
How significant that the worlds
youngest republic first placed at its
head president whose courageous
heart did not homage to the lifeless
god that millions of his benighted sub
jects do yet obey.
Half century has passed since Ap-
pomattox. The somber twilight glow
of Lies sunset has bathed the once
raven locks of Dixie's youngest veter-
an with Confederate gray. The flick
ering lights burn low. Slowly dis
solves the little company about the
smouldering campfire. One by one
the old Guard quits the narrowing
circle and ''crosses the river to rest un-
der the shade of the trees" Would
that we could keep them with us al
ways in the flesh. But the hearts of
the sons and daughters of Dixie are
large and as the chairs grow vacant,
our hearts are filled and strengthened
with the blessing that their lives have
been; by the example that their death
affords.
Man instinctively seeks to cling to
some great achievement lest he be
swallowed up into the great maelstrom
of oblivion. Asks Matthew Arnold
speaking of earthly fame:
What is the course of the life
Of mortal men on the earth?
Most men eddy about
Here and there.-eat and drink,
Chatter and love and hate,
Gather and squander, are raised
Aloft, are hurled in the dust,
Striving blndly, achieving
Nothing; and then they die,
Perish, and no one asks
Who or what they have been
More than he asks what waves
In the moonlit solitudes mild
Of the mid-most ocean have swell'd
toamed for moment, and gone.''
When man emboldened by the nod
of man, permits conceit to lure him on
to some fantastic goal, we call it Fame.
