son.

After eighteen years as president
of the Baptist Dallas Pastors Union,
when it came to the election for this
year, DR.. A. S. Jackson asked to be
relieved of the presidency from now
on, because he was in pressing need
OF time for some other important
matters beside his desire that another
take over the responsibility he had
carried so long in his relation to the
Dallas Pastors Union. Dr. Jack
son was unanimously elected to the
lifelong honorary titular position Of
president emeritus of the. Union ac-
companiod with expressions OF APP
probation for his long period OF
faithful services, and with assurances
Of the merited affection of the min
listers of the city for his brotherly
interest in them and his devotion to
Baptist affairs and progress in all
the churches of the city Rev. L.
Arlington Wilson was chosen to sue
coed DR.. Jackson, at DR.. Jackson's
suggestion.
The next day when the general
Evangelical Alliance of the pastors
of all the churches of Dallas Of
all the denominations urged DR..
Jackson over his protest to accept
the presidency of that organization
for the present year, he consented
with the understanding that he
would look largely to be relieved
in this leadership by Rev. DR.. C. w.
Arlington, the erudite pastor of st.
James A. M. e., church. who was
elected vice-president.
Some time during the year. DR..
Jackson plans to go to Brazil to
study at first hand the condition of
the slaves emanciapated since eman-
cipation Of our race in this country,

privileges with Negro citizenship in
the United States. This will be mat
ter for the last chapter in his book.

.METHODISTSF FAR
EXCEED THEIR Quota

The faithful work of the five teams
lead by Walter @. Park, A. J. Suit,
Miss Emily Olmstead, Mrs. Jonas
Rucker and c. c. Wallace resulted in
raising for the centenary movement
12,250. The so called assessment or
quota was $4,000. This puts the
church over the top $780, This in
cludes the amount subscribed by in
dividuals, the Sunday School, the
church as whole in conference
claims and the Ladies' Missionary
Society.
Besides this, the church had debt
of $43,67 which had been standing
for some years, and in order to make
victory complete, they made up the
money at the morning service and
paid off this debt also.
Everyone entered into the spirit of
the movement and seemed to enjoy
the privilege offered them of giving to
this great cause. Even the friends of
the churches assited literally and en-
joyed it immensely. We now hope for
the church a period of prosperity and
a season of spiritual blessing such
that it has not seen in many days.

WILLIS MOORES
LOSES LITTLE SON

Johnny Moores, the bright lit
tie ive-year-old son of Mr. Willis
Moores, of the Daily Register
force, died Sunday night at II :05
o'clock at the home of his grand
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. James c.
Whicker, on Letcher avenue, this
city. For the past five weeks this
bright little fellow had been, how
Iering between life and death with
that treacherous ma1ady, typhoid
fever, and all that medical skill
and loving hands could do was of
no avail, and the little sufferer
entered into that land where pain
and suffering are unknown.
Just one short year ago his
mother departed this life and left
him and baby girl in this world of
sorrow and woe, and the loving
care of a father. Now, the little
son has gone to join his mother
with the saints immortal, and the
father is left to mourn the demise
Iof those nearest and dearest to
his heart. To him and the fond
grandparents, is extended the sin
cere sympathy of the entire COM
immunity. Funeral services will be
theld Tuesday and the remains laid
to rest in the Richmond cemetery
beside his mother.

bad CHECK CASES
| COME UP TUESDAY

Circuit court reconvened this
morning, and the day has been
devoted to trial of small civil ac-
tions. Two suits involving own
ership of small tracts of land in
Red Lick section of the county,
were up first. Elizabeth Lewis
administrator is suing John Rob-
inson for the possession of a
tract OF. land, valued at about ST.
600. Robinson claims that the
land was given him. The jury
was still out with this case when

ed.
The suit of Newt Lakes heirs
including his daughter, Nettie
Lakes for a tract of. land in the
same section, was on trial this af-
ternoon. The suit is against Will

a deed to, the property.
The criminal division of the
docket will be taken up again
Tuesday. Among the first cases
to be heard will be those of the
two Lexington couples, McCalls
and Hattons, who tried the cold
check game on half a dozen or so
of Richmond merchants a few
weeks ago. They are out on 81 ST.
900 bond for their appearance to-
morrow. AS they pied guilty af-
ter indictment, it will simply be a
question of the length terms that
they are given in the penitenti-
AIRY.
Among the cases which will
come up this week will be the pc
tition filed by City Attorney Joe
p. Chenault, on behalf of the city
of Richmond, seeking to enjoin

graph Co. from putting into effect
the increase in rates recently an
nounced. The city cites its con-
