Field and a letter from Secretary B D Gray say that the Negro Convention at Aus tin did most heartily endorse the present plan of cooperation be tween that convention and our Home Board Dr Gray says By some mistake the report has been circulated that the Negro Conven tion at Austin refused to endorse the plans of our Home Board fo workamong the Negroes The convention did endorse our plans an workweDr Boyd secretary ol the Negro Board says The Boards action was unanimously endorsed that iis to say the opposition found them selves so hopelessly in the minority that they did not vote at all and and this made it unanimous as far the vote was concerned The mis take seems to have come from the fact that the Negro Convention de cided to endorse the resent are rangement by shelving all possible opposition for a year but the opposition did not materialize The Baptist Argus From the above it is evident that there must be a misunderstanding among our white brethren about the position of the National Baptist Convention upon the question of Cooperation The record will show that when the report of the Home Mission Board was read that all the II report was adopted except that part J referring to the Amended plans of co operation and that was referred to a special committee of six from the Country at large and one from each state Then the resolution offered by Rev E C Morris D D was adopted This resolution with the names of the committee and the action thus far taken is print r in another column Read this and form your own conclusions The inference that the opposition was hopelessly in the minority is a great mistake Some of the ablest and most prominent members of the convention were against the plan and it is very doubtful whether it could have been adopted or not and it is the opinion of many of the leaders that this strong and persistent opposition was the only thingr that induced the advocates of the measure to agree to even a reference of the question to a committee- SLAST week Judge Thos G Jone of the U S Court of Alabama in Hutsville created a sensation by hi charge to the Grand Jury by direct ing them to indict any members of the mob which lynched Horace Mables it after a thorough investi it was evident to the jury that they lynched him because of his color and would not have lynched white man under the same circumstances He also charged that if the mob w asto actuated by race prejudice the lync ing constituted crime against the United States and the offense was S violation of the thirteenth amend I meat He also directed the grand jury to indict the members of the mob for firing the jail in which i United States prisoners were co fined When it is remembered thatit ledge lODes has always been a dem vn- i jo Il I J4 ds u ocrat though appointed by a Repub lican President these utterances are significant and indicate that the spirit of fairness and justice in not dead This iis a new issue but when it is raised by a learned judge

New Orleans in the placeof Col ored roustabouts on account of the colored men striking at intervals will be a failure because the besetting sin of white laborers is to join Unions and strike under the least provocation Besides this the char acter of the work and the treatment accorded roustabouts will hardly be agreeable to the new men and this alone will make the experiment exceedii gly doubtful

inhabitants of our little city feel at a lost this week to know how to content themselves at home after having such a great revival for the past two weeks at the Bap tist church The people of Fairfield and community never experienced such a meeting never were such a I number taken in the church during a revival and never before did such a number of sheep that had strayed from tbe fold come home and we owe it to Rev W A Jones pastor of Parkland Baptist church Louisville Ky who assisted our pastor Rev I H Rhodes for his divine teachings and explanations of God and his goodness It was indeed in spiring to us to hear Rev Jones He is an exponent of practical Christianity and a refreshing de parture from the preacher of pre fuuctory pulpit platitudes that sound hollow to the ear and sicken the heart by their very emptiness Since being pastor ot the Fairfield Baptist church Rev Rhodes has worked with that never ceasing tire and we as well as himself can see the fruits of his labor The meeting closed Sunday Oct 9th with the baptising c f thirty souls Amid all of this the people did not fail to remember the expenses of the church and finally gave 4200 M A Hawkins MONTEREY KY I took charge of the Mt Olive Baptist church April3 rd I found the church much divided and a great work to be done this being my home church I felt the need of divine grace and in Gods name we entered upon the work and we are proud to say the church is much revived and we are getting along nicely both spirituality and financi ally We can say with the Psalm ist Behold how good it is for breth ren to dwel together in union Also the Flat Rock Baptist Churchat Gratz Ky of which I have been pastor since July 17th is doing nicely and every member Seems anx ious to make the work a success We ask the prayers of the great Baptist family that God may crown our efforts withsuccess Yours for Christ James R Riddle ADVANCED ORMAL COURSE INTRODUCED AT TUSKE GEE INSTITUTE An Advanced Normal Course foi

Alexander Pope the poet who plan ted a willow twig on the banks of the Thames at his Twickenham vil la The twig came to him in a box of figs sent from Smyrna by a friend who had lost all in the South Sea Bubble and had gone to that distant land to recoup his fortune Harpers Encyclopaedia of United States history tells the story of the willow arrival in America A iI I Ji 1 is young British officer who came to Boston with the army to crush the rebellion of the American colonies brought with him a twig from Pope now beautiful willow tree intending to plant it in America when he comfortably settle down on lands confiscated from the conquered Americans The young officer disi sappointed in these expectations gave his willow twig wrappen in oil silk to John Parke Custis Mrs Washingtons son who planted it upon his Abingd m estate in Vir ginia It thrived and became the progenitor of all our wiliow trees Exchange TSCHOOL NOTES The Football game between the S U and C H S seems to be the

DOTHAN 2 Kings 6 823 Motto TextThe angel of the Lord campeth round about them that fear him and dehvereth them It Ps 347 II Then the king of SyriaBen hadad iit the most determined enemy Israel had at this time He is the same king who wrote the I letter to king IJehoram in regard to Naaman Whatever pleasure the restoration to health of his great general gave to Benhadad he felt no gratitude towards Israel for it II Took counsel with his servants It We may be sure Naaman was not among those who made raids upon Israel Benhadad unwilling to lose his great ability no doubt sent him to fight other nations The Syrians planned ambushes and surprises for Israel but Elisha warned Jehoram and thus brought all the plans of the enemy tonaught and making them the surprised ones Several times the well are ranged military plans of Benhadad had only brought him defeat God used a great variety of means to protect his chose people But he always guards his people M one way if not in another The heart of the kingoj Syria was sort troubled Not alone by his defeats but by the treachery of some trusted counsellor Such treachery striking in the dark as it does is always a terror far beyond the the open enemy Thinking the other may know who it is who betrays him he appeals to them II Will ye show me which of us is for the king 01 Israel The case against his privy counsellors seemed conclusive Some one of them must be the guilty one God was not in all his thoughts nor Gods knowledge of his secret thoughts Verse 12 The fame of Elisha had been spread through Syria by the healing of Naamun Either this courtier surmised that a prophet who could heal leprosy would know everything or more probably he had heard from some Israel ite how Elisha had warned IJeho ram It would be well for us to remember how how our most se cret words and thoughts are writ ten in the book of Gods remembrance and must be faced at the great day ot accounts Another lesson here should not be overlooked and that is the great value one good man may be to a nation Ten righteous men would have even Sodom Go and spy where he is that I may send and fetch himBen hadad either hoped to bribe Elisha to use his supernatural power for his benefit as Barak tried to win Balaam or he intended to hold him a prisonerWhile held by Benhadad he could not make known the kings plans to JJehoram Behold he is in DothanThis place still reI tains its old name which means two wells It lies twelve miles north of Samaria and is the place where Joseph was put in the pit by his brethren Elisha lived in Sa maria and was on a visit to Doth an Therefore sent he thither horses and chariots and a great AartBennadad evidently thought it necessary to send a large host as though by numbers he could over come the power of the prophet was a small city and was taken completely by surprise The SyJ riajmunflunded1 it closely in the sight It is probable nothIng l 4 known of the Arrival ol the enemy till the morning light disclosed themAnd when the servants of the rears of God was risen earlyThe successor of the unworthy Gshazt The pattern people are early risers Lctkimc out the servant saW the whch potto was situated A l- ji r jI p l closely invested thy the Syrian forces In alarm he informs the prophet saying Alas my 11- IastrIt was evident from the surrounding of this small city instead of attacking it that the prophet was the object of the Syrian expe ditionFear not for they that be with I its are more titan they that be wi1- 1tthemWe can see the servants look of incredulity as he looks upon the few and alarmed men of the little city and then upon the army of the Syrians Elisha was a kind and tenderhearted man he pitied the natural dismay of his attendant Hence his prayer Lord I pray thee open his eyes that he may see- The eyes of the body cannot see spirits unless miraculously aided But God granted the prayer of his prophet and enabled his servant to see as he could otherwise have seen I only after death had removed the clay from his eyes The Syrian army of God standing guard over his prophet And when we re member the power of those his angels who excel In strength one of whom had slain all all the host of Sennachenb in a single night we see how powerless the Syrians were to injure a hair of Elishas head Angels are ministering spirits who guard the children of God It is not given to us to seem as we go through life but we know they are ever round about us caring for us No evil can touch one of Gods children They that be with us are are more than they that be against us and all things work together for good to them that love God to them that are called according to his purpose- If his children would only be lieve this how much anxiety and worry they would be spared Do your whole duty in the fear of God and trust consequences with him The words of the prophet show that the angel guards were an ordinary thing the only unusual circum stances being the miracle opening the eyes of the young man LA Itm they came down to him Elisha prayed unto the Lord and said Smite this people Ipray thee with blindness The word means confusion They were so blinded that they did not recognize their surroundings but they were able to distinguish the road and follow the prophet And Elisha said unto them This is not the way neither is this the dtyThey were seeking to seize him till the blindness was re moved and they could know which was he and this would not be al lowed thm in this city but in Sama ria There was no untruth in his words He performed his promise accurately and laid them where they could know and see Elisha c But lIe led them to Satriaria The blindness prevented them from knowing where they were going But at Elishas prayer the confus ion was removed from their sight and their minds and they found themselves indeed in the presence 1 of the man whom they sought but also in the strongly fortified Samara surrounded by the armyof the king of Israel iil Jehoram rightly felt that these were Elishas prisoners to be dealt with as he pleased and in pursu ance with his request treated them I homeIy the magnimity displayed and part ly realizing that
