to the churches. This same Paul. a
citizen Of the world and a product Of
the three cultures that met in the
languages set above the cross, pro-
claimed that "in Jesus Christ there Is
neither Jew nor Greek, there is Meth
err bond or free, there is neither male
nor female; for ye are all one in Jesus
Christ"
But, to sum up, we believe that the
Bible casts abundant light upon the
problem of equality dncluding the
full and equal rights Of women) and
upon our duties relative to the same.
We men delude ourselves when we
imagine that we are the superior be-
ings; we have more claim to the pos
sessions OF the earth than have the
mothers who bore us, the wives who
support and comfort us or our daugh-
ters who adore us. II we cannot over
come our barbarian antipathies, we
are at least bound In law and in So
cial life to do justice and show mercy
and in all to walk bumbly before our
God; making no cult, creed, political
or social dogma, or personal vanity
tests Of Intellectual superiority and
inferiority. Sympathy Is the key OF
Interpretation. Have we the spirit OF
Paul, who confessed for himself there
was "nelther male or female" !. e.:
sex made no difference when 1t came
to the distribution OF Gods good gifts.
II we have this spirit then we shall
tread the pathway Of the Christ, who
showed no antipathy to any one on
account of either race or sex. Happily
for the real Christian, 1t is the testi-
among all those
who have made thorough proof-that
there is no solvent or ethical preju-
dices, no overcomer Of obstacles reared
by selfshness and false traditions,
and no unifer Of sentiment. feeling,
impulse and vision, like the gospel Of
Jesus Christ. A right discipline Of our
spirits, with, humility in the service OF
Jesus, will certainly bring about the
day when we shall be all one in the
unity of the Spirit and have world
wide modus vivendi. Certain precau-
lions in regard to purity of the race
may be for our own welfare and the
protection Of society, especially I'M

Boggs against Friend.
In the case Of Boggs against Friend,
from Braxton county, the judgment OF
the lower court was reversed and the
case was remanded; Miller, judge.
The syllabus is as follows:
II. A contract between the seller
and purchaser Of an established shop
or business, which binds the seller, as
incident to the sale and purchase Of
his property, not to set up and engage
in a rival business within the neigh
borhood thereof or in such close prox-
unity thereto as to detract from tho
natural patronage Of such shop or
business, is not void on grounds Of
public policy, as constituting an I'M
reasonable restraint Of trade.
"2. In such cases the test in de-
termlning the validity or invalidlty
OF the contract is tho reasonableness
of the restraint imposed, and it will
be enforced us to time and space only
to the extent necessary to protract
the rights OF the parties and the in
terest Of the public therein, II any.
"3. There is a distinction between
those cases where by the terms of the
contract the purchaser is put entire
ly out Of business, and those in which
the restraint is imposed as a mere in
cldent to the sale and transfer OF ones
business to another, and to protect the
purchaser therein. The former class
are generally condemned by the
courts. the latter held reasonable,
valid and enforceable.
"a. Though such contract be not
in terms limited in time or space. 1t
will be construed as intending only
such sufficient time and reasonable
space as may be necessary to protect
the purchaser in the thing or business
purchased.
"6. Where. as in this case, such
contract does not go nomine include
the good will, but covers not only a
sale OF the business but the place of
business also, as a shop or lot on
which the business is carried on, it
will ordinarily be construed as includ-
ing the good will Of the business, by
reasonable intendment OF implica-
ton"

WOMAN IN BED
HALF CENTURY
MoHie Fancher, Stricken When
is Years Old, is Sorry for
the Poor and Hungry.

BROOKLYN, Feb. SIN little
room in modest brick dwelling at
100 Gates avenue is woman who,
says the Eagle, has been in bed for
fifty years. In fifty years she has
not been able to stir from the left
side of the bed to the right.
She is Mollie Fancher, Americas
most famous invalid, the most talked
Of sick person, perhaps, in the whole
civilized world. She has been the
enigma Of physicians and scientists,
the wonder of every man and woman
who has been to see her.
There is picture on her bedroom
wall of Brooklyn's famous invalid as
she used to look in her young woman
hood. The face is round and her tlg-
ure plump in that photograph.
you see, l am little old woman
now" she said as the energetic Joe,
her pet parrot, performed various ac-
robatic feats in his cage and croaked
hello" many times.
II am not feeling very smart today
and l am always in pain, but never
lose my trust in God. If l should
lose faith in God would have to throw
up the SPONGE"
She laughed a little at the slang.
She talked OF her friends who have
died but the tears came and she had to
dry them with her handkerchief.
II have had my cross to bear
through life," she said, "but there are
others and their crosses are heavier.
! am not so badly off as some. Think
of the poor people who are hungry and
without work in this great CITY,"
When she was in her seventeenth
year, in June 1865, Mollle Fancher
was thrown from horse which she
had been warned not to ride. She
was then tall, slender and graceful
young woman, universal favorite.
! She was just recovering from her
| injuries from the fall when, as she
was dismounting from street car,
her arms laden with parcels, the con-
ductor pulled the bell before she was
safely off, and she was thrown to the
ground.
Thereafter Mollie Fancher was a
hopeless invalid. Her sufferings were
so acute that it did not seem possible
for human being to bear such great
tribulation and live.
Nine years of her life in the first
stages Of her illness, are a blank to
her. She has no recollection of what
occurred in those nine years or of any
thing she said or did in that time
According to her biographer. the late
Judge A. III. Daley, he had it from
unquestionable authority" that in that
time she wrote $500 letters. worked
up 100000 ounces Of worsted, did a
vast amount Of beautiful wax work
cutting and coloring the leaves and
flowers In the most ingenious and
perfect manner.
For a long time she was able only

being carried up to meet the position
of her right hand.
Sometimes it seemed as II her soul
fed her body for space and then re-
turned with reluctance to its earthly
habltation. When she came out Of her
frances she sometimes had wonderful
things to say ...
Her cheerfulness and her busy
brain and fingers have been her saliva
ton. She Is occupied always. Her
prayer. as she wrote it out in her own
hand, has been:
My God, 0 spare me this a
To lie with empty folded hands;
am content to bear my cross,
And will not murmur at the bands
That bind; nor count affection lost.
But spare, o spare me this:

ECONOMISTS AND NEGRO LEAD
ERS HAVE JOINED FORCES TO
CHECK EMIGRATION OF THE
NEGROES.

Atlanta, Ga. Dec. 12.--ln an effor
to check the widespread migration
of southern negroes to northern labor
fields. negro leaders and white eco
nomists have joined forces and at
mass meetings which are being held
generally are pointing out that nc
/ permanent gain awaits the average
negro in the north. 1t is estimated
that fully 100000 negroes already have

Alluring offers of high wages and
easy work made by labor agents in
all parts of the south appear to have
met with a general response from
negroes in all sections. Varied rea-
sons have been advanced for the ap-
parent willingness OF so many ne
groes to leave their homes.
\ serious shortage OF labor in the
cotton fields next spring and summer
is feared if the exodus continues.
When the movement began several
months ago it was not viewed serious
~. but when labor agents were
successful in inducing thousands of
negroes to go north to work, employ
ers of labor in the south became
alarmed Efforts We're made TO ham
per the agents by law. In some cities
ordinances providing a prohibitive liz
.cense fee for such agents were passed.
Old laws were scanned to ascertain
il some means could he found to stay
The migration. These efforts result
ed in slight checks, but in the main
the movement has continued on Il
large scale.
The negroes were brought in from
the country and small towns to con
centration points and in many in
stances shipped north in trainload lots
After several hundred had been col
lected at Montgomery, Alabama, some
thing went amiss with the agents
plans and the negroes were left with
out money and away from home. It
was then that the situation was first
taken seriously in Alabama
In most cases the southern negroes
have been placed where labor has
been scarce in the more thickly pop
uated districts. Reports of their
prosperity vary but those which have
gained the widest circulation in the
south tell of hardships suffered prin-
cipally because of the cold weather

farmer who had sold everything he
owned but a mule and had gone
north. Soon after cold weather came
