CAROLINA.
Will Be Sung at the County School Fair.
Words by Timrod. Music by Anna Curtis
Burgess.

Call on thy children Of the hill,
Wake swamp and river, coast and rill,
Rouse all thy strength and all thy skill,
Carolina, Carolina.
Hold up thy glories Of the dead;
Say how thy elder children bled,
And point to Eutaw's battle bed,
Carolina, Carolina.
Thy skirts indeed the foe may part,
Thy robe be pierced with sword and dart,
They shall not touch thy noble heart,
Carolina, Carolina.
Throw thy bold banner to the breeze,
Front with thy ranks the threat'ning seas,
Like thine own proud armorial trees,
Carolina, Carolina.
Girt with such wills to do and bear,
Assured in right and mailed in prayer,
Thou wilt not bow thee to despair, -
Carolina, Carolina.
The words above will be sung at the
County School Fair. There was an error
in the wording of tho song in last weeks
Medium.
The music can be had from the Smith
deal Music Co., Columbia, S. G.
The five verses on page two of the sheet
of music have been selected as appropriate
for the schools and these will be used all
over the State, hence we think it best to
use these and not the verses printed last
week. .

PREACHERS MAKE
PLEAS FOR FRANK
Utterances From Pulpit Favor
New Trial.
THREE PASTORS SPEAK
State Of Public Feeling at Time
of Trial Prevented a Fair
Hearing.

Atlanta, Ga, March 15-Public utterances
favoring new trial for Leo NJ. Frank,
under sentence of death for the murder OF
Mary Phagan, 14-year-old employe OF a
penci factory of which Frank was super
intendeut, were made in Atlanta churches
to-day.
DR.. L. o. Bricker, pastor Of the First
Christian dffurch, and DR.. A. R. Holderby,
pastor Of the Moore Memorial church, and
the Rev. Julian S. Rodgers, pastor of the
East Atlant Baptist church, told their con-
gregrtions that they believed the state Of
public feeling at the trial Of the factory
superintendent made fair hearing i'm
possible The ministers said they did not
assert either the innocence or guilt Of
Frank but but believed conditions war
ranted new trial.
eff the evidence against this unfortun-
ate man is true--if there be no reasonable
doubt-then he ought to suffer the penalty.
But it would be unfair to hang a sheep
killing dog upon the evidence upon which
Frank has been convicted" said the Rev.
Mr.. Holderby.
The Rev. Mr.. Bricker also submitted that
the factory superintendent should have a
new trial, because Of the apdarent INSULT
cheney Of the evidence under which he was
convicted"
He referred to the testimony Of James
Conley, the negro factory sweeper, who
said that Frank committed the crime and
that he aided him in disposiDg Of the body
In the factory basement and added:
Under ordinary circumstances we in the
South do not take the word Of a negro
against the word of white man, but we
were willing to believe the unsupported
story Of a negro, even after he had sworn
to three or four other afidavits and had
admitted criminal knowledge and compile
ity in the crime, and was a self-confessed
liar and perjurer-in the face Of all that,
We were willing to believe his last story.
"The only ground on which we could
have done this is that we felt that Frank
was guilty and were therefore ready to
believe anything that seemed to confirm
it."
Conley was convicted of being an acces-
sorry after the fact in the murder. He was
sentenced to one years Imprisonment.
LEO NJ. Frank has never been fairly con-
victed of the crime" said the Rev. Mr..
Rodgers. would not hang yellow dog
on James Co .ley's testimony much less a
white man, who comes into court with a
character heretofore unchallenged. The
fact that Frank is Jew Should not dis
credit him. If Leo NJ. Frank is criminal
it is not becaus he is Jew but in spite Of
It,"

statuary broken and trampled under foot!
"The archbishop, Jose Guzman, and his
aged aunt was trown into the street by
the marauders," continued Father Madina,

American convent, drove out the sister
and her charges and set the building on
fire."

the same manner as at Victoria said Fa-
ther Madina, and the rector, Father Celia
de Leon, and his two assistants, Basilia

priests will be put to death. Father
Madina said five priests had been killing
