RELIGIOUS WORKERS SHOW
SPIRIT OF BROTHERHOOD.
WORLDS Christian Endeavor Society on
Side Of Golden RuIeI

The Richmond (va.) Times Dispatch
gives the following account Of what
happened at one session of the recent
Worlds Christian Endeavor conven-
ton recently held In Chicago. It says:
Moved by speeches of men prominent
In church and business life of the
south, 800 southern men and women.
delegates to the Worlds Christian En-
deavor convention, in session at Chi
cago, acknowledged brotherhood with
the Negro race and determined to ex-
tend to it the hand of fellowship
Out of this idea is to grow the south
ern extension committee Of the Chris
tian Endeavor. which the Rev. Ira
Landreth Of Nashville. Tenn, calls the
beginning of the interdenominationa
union Of the colored people. Z
I'VE are going to take the Christian
Endeavor into the Negro churches"
said DR.. Landreth, Organize new So
cieties and help millions of blacks to
enlightenment God has placed at our
door the greatest opportunity for Chris
tian work that ever came to any mis-
sionaries anywhere"
until the men rise up and say, I
will not KILL nations will war with one
another" according to Daniel A. Pol
ing, citizenship superintendent of the
United Society of the Christian En-
deavor. He declared that neither arbi-
tration treaties nor neutrality agree
ments will bring everlasting and uni
versal peace.
"The message of the Christian En-
deavor Is patriotic" said Mr.. Polling.
"The patriotism Of Christian Endeavor
Is practical, and addresses itself to the
foes of the state.
these foes are intemperance and
war. Against them the young peoples
movement hurls the flower Of the world,
the youth Of the kingdom. Christian
Endeavor can and will enroll millions Of
young people from all sects, colors and
nationalities In the peace union which
was the vision Of President Clark.
These millions will proclaim the full
fillment Of the sixth commandment.
These will declare 4 will not kill"
For the benefit Of those who may not
know 1T, we wish to state that the
Christian Endeavor society work is
no new thing to the colored people.
The work Of the organization is strong
In the A. M. q. and A. M. ID. Zion
churches and some other denomina-
tons. It is not SO popular with the
Baptist denomination. The chief re-
ligious feature among Baptists, aside
from the church and Sunday school for
young people. is the Baptist young peo-
ploip union.

and had been effectively canvassed.
When the trustees met in June the re-
port was made that the amount need
ed for the steam and power plant had
been oversubscribed, two Of the trus-
tees alone raising their individual gifts
Of $4,000 to $12,5O0 each.

calls for an expenditure Of $291, 1,587.

Auto Committee
Arranging Details

The committee on automobile race
for the Fourth met last evening in
the office of George Sanford and
transacted whole lot of business.
Matters in connection with the fixing
of the road over the course were
discussed and the path of the rushing
autos will be as good as labor and
care can make it. Much care is 60
ing to be taken to keep from injurinS
anyone by the racers, and means for
keeping pedestrians off the street
during the race were discussed. Sncr-
iff Stern was appointed a committee
Of one to police the street, and he
will see to it that no one either
crosses or gets on the main highway
during the progress Of the race.
Notice to clear the street will be Civ
en- by the striking of the big fire bell
on the engine house, and from the
time of this notice till the race is
finished no one. either in vehicle
or afoot, will be allowed to cross
Carson street. The road is to be
strictly for the racers.
Rules for the governing of the
racers were adopted and they are to
be strictly enforced, any driver violat-
ing to be disqualified.
There will be barricades Of straw
at the several short turns in the
course, to prevent accidents from
skidding when the flying autos
change their direction, and the rules
will provide that they must slow
down for these turns. At several
turns signal flags are to be set, to
show the drivers when to slow down
to a safe rate of speed.
The auto enthusiasts from all over
the state are up to their ears in ex-
citement over the coming test of
speed, and are coming from far and
near either to take part or to wit
ness the trial
The beginning and ending of the
race is to be in front of the, court
house, on Carson street, and the race
will consist of seven laps down Car
son street to the prison road, thence
to Empire and back down Carson
street to the place of starting. As
ten autos are expected to start and
the time for each lap will be some
thing near eight minutes it will be
nearly a continuous performance.
