Students From the College Out in
lumbers—Literary Exorcises Held
at Second African Uaptist Church,
Where l>r. J. J. Durham Delivered
the Address—His Subject Was the
\<‘gro Problem.
The colored people observed yesterday
os EmancipaCon day. The day was be
fittingly celebrated by the military and
several civic societies. The students
from the State College were out and add
ed greatly to the demonstration.
The procession was formed during the
morning on Liberty and East Broad
streets, and marched off in the following
order:
Military Band.
Maj. W. H. Royal!, commanding the
First Battalion: Lieut. Sol C. Johnson, ad
jutant. and Capt. J. J. Durham, D. D.,
chaplain.
Colguitt Blues—Capt. J. H. Carter.

Law.
Lincoln Guards.
Savannah Light Infantry—Capt. H. N.
Walton.

Chatham Band.
Emancipation Association, in carriages,
headed by Chief Marshal L. M. Pleasant
and his staff.
The procession passed through some of
the principal streets, out to the Park Ex
tension, where the Georgia Artillery fired
a salute. and the First Bat
talion had battalion parade and
a review. After these ceremonies the
lines were reformed and marcl\ed to the
Second Baptist Church, where the literary
part of the programme was carried out.
The companies of the First Battalion
turned out in large numbers, and the
marching was really excellent. Every
thing was done in an orderly manner,
which reflected much credit upon them.
This is the only colored battalion in the
state and naturally the colored people feel
proud of it. It was commanded by Maj.
W. H. Royall in the absence of Col. J.
H. Deveaux, who was unable to get out.
The students from the college made &
fine showing. They came in on special
cars and returned in the afternoon, after
the celebration. They numbered about
120. President Wright and several of the
Instructors from the college were out in
carriages. The girls were not in the pro
cession, but they were in evidence with
the college colors.
DISCUSSED THE NEGRO PROBLEM.
Dr. Durham Gave the Member* of
Hi.* Race Some Good Advice.
At the church, the exercises of the
Emancipation Association were heid. with
Rev. G. W. Griffin presiding. The exercise>
were marked by the address delivered by
Rev. Dr. J. J. Durham, who took as his
theme the resolutions recently passed by
the industrial convention that met at
Huntsville, Ala. His remarks were list
ened to with attention aid punctuated by
frequent applause. In s.art he spoke os
follows:
“What should be the policy of this coun
try toward the negro?” asked Dr. Dur
ham.
"Both wisdom and justice to the negro
would dictate that the policy of this coun
try toward the negro should be in harmo
ny with his legal status as an American
citizen, and as a permanent and increas
ing factor in all the economical, indus
trial and political institutions of .hi
country. Attempts to deal with him as
something less than a citizen have cost
this country more blood and treasure than
it took to establish its independence.”
“At the industrial convenrion recently
held at Huntsville. Ala.. ex-Gov. McOorkle
of West Virginia, a native-born S utnern
man, and a Democrat, said: “The time
has come when the Southern whites must
face the fact that there can be no perma
nent peace and prosperity for the South
until the negro question is settled, and it
will not be settled until settled right.’ The
next day the convention j. asset! the fol
lowing resolutions without a dissenting
vote: ‘That to remove the race p.’ob em
from the domain of politics, whore it h i
so long and seriously vexed the industrial
progress of the South, we recommend to
the Southern states the adoption of an in
telligent standard of citizenship, that will
apply alike to black and white.’ It should
be evident to all that the South needs the
labor of the negro, that it constitutes th *
most available, tractable and efficient un
der proper treatment; that it
is free from anarchistic tenden
cies and is here to stay; so ihat every
reasonable means should be adopted
to maintain the best relations between the
races in the South.
“We recommend the industrial educa
tion of the negroes and the opening to
them of all avenues of industry free from
intimidation and under the protection of
just law’s.’ ”
“I believe,” said Dr. Durham, “that
thesA resolutions, adopted by that larg<\
influential and representative body of
Southern white men, indicate the true
and proper policy that should be pursued
toward the negro in this country. They
recognize the legal status and citizenship
of the negro, and call upon the South to
adopt an Intelligent standard of citizen
ship that will apply alike to all citizens,
wiihout regard to race, without loop-holes,
“understanding,” or “grandfather”
clauses. Those resolutions recognize the
fact that there Is no difference between
black ignorance and white ignorance, that
citizenship in the hands of white ignor
ance is no better and safer than citizen
ship In ihe hands of black Ignorance;
that it is no more wise, Just or patriotic
to disfranchise black ignorance than it is
to disfranchise white ignorance. It was
the recognition of this same great truth—
be it said to their eternal honor and spirit
of Justice and fairness toward the negro—
that caused the late Legislature of Geor
gia to kill, with a vengeance, the Hard
wick disfranchising bill, which proposed
to make a difference between black ig
norance and white ignorance.”
“Those resolution recognize the fact
that ihe negro Is here to remain, a great
and increasing factor in all the industrial,
economical, social and political institu
tions of this country, for good or evil,
according to his proper or Improper treat
ment, and call upon the South to adopt all
reasonable means to maintain peace and
friendly relations between the races, as
f H*oessary to the materia! welfare and best
Interests of both races and of the whole

Vy The difference
between the
farmer’s wife and her chickens is that
she fancies she can take out of herself in
daily cares and toils what she does not
put back in the form of nourishment for
nerve and body. But she can’t. Sooner or
later the woman who tries it breaks down.
The warning signs of physical break
down are, among others, headache, weak
stomach, flatulence, pain in side or back,
difficult breathing, palpitation of the
heart. These are only some of the in
dications of a derangement of the stom
ach and organs of digestion and nutri
tion. The one sure remedy for this con
dition is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery, which strengthens the stom
ach, purifies the blood and nourishes
and invigorates the nerves.
Mrs. Martha E. Barham, of Newville, Prince
George Cos., Va., writes: “I commenced to take
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery in June,
1897. also his ’ Favorite Prescription,’ and I can
not express, the benefit I have received from
these medicines. I was suffering with what the
doctors called chronic indigestion, torpid liver
and vertigo. The doctor aid not do me any
good. My symptoms were giddiness in head,
pains in chest aud an uneasy feeling all over. I
also suffered with female weakness I was all
run-dowu and could hot do anv work at all with
out suffering from nervous attacks, so I wrote to
you for advice. You advised me to use Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery and 'Favorite
Prescription.’ When I commenced to use the
medicines I weighed onlv 112 pounds, now I
weigh 140 pounds. I thank God and Dr. R. V.
Pierce for mv r<*cov-** ”
as to the negro; first, that he
is here to stay;second, that he is an Amer
ican citizen. The recognition of these two
facts will materially help in the proper
solution of the so-called negro problem.
Those who advocate the deportation or ex
patriation of the negro, ignore these two
important facts. I do not believe, with ex-
Senator Butler of South Carolina, and
John Temple Graves of Georgia, that the
great and good God, who calls upon man
to love his neighbors as himself, and to
live in peace wi.h ull men, hus put enmity
between races so that they can not live
together in peace. Bet us be careful lest
we charge God with the unholy work of
petty demagogues, designing politicians,
race fanatics, hotheads and inflammatory
newspapers; for more and more the con
viction grows upon me. that whatever of
bitterness and bad feeling there may be
between the races is due to these sources,
and not 10 natural causes.
"The man, black or white, who stirs up
strife and bad feeling between the races,
is an enemy to both, and the better and
more conservative element of both should
in some way, get together an*d stand to
gether against the common enemy of the
peace, progress and material prosperity of
this Southland.
"T e public press—especially the South
ern press—can do miracles toward an am
icable adjustment of the two races to each
other, and the establishment and mainten
ance of friendly relations between them,
for it is a mighty power, the moulder of
public sentiment. Those Huntsville resolu
tions recognize the value, tractability and
reliability of the negro as a laborer, and
rhe wisdom and justice of according to
him a fair chance in the great struggle
for meut and bread, by opening to him ail
avenues of industry, without discrimina
tion. The South has in the negro, the
cheapest, most tractable and reliable la
borer in the world. He does not take to
communism, nihilism, socialism, anarchi
sm. strikes or boycotts. The South knows
nothing about labor troubles, while in the
North a strike is declared, the fires in a
thousand furnaces go out and a million
wheels and spindles cease their singing.
Thus the mightiest motives of self-inter
est to the whole South, as as simple
justice to the negro, dictate a policy to
ward him that will elevate, and make film
a better citizen, a more efficient and pro
ductive laborer, and thus increase the pro
ductice power and wealth of the whole
country. The pursuance of a policy to
ward the negro that will keep him ig
norant, degraded and inefficient as a la*
borer will be a great curse to the social,
political and industrial interests of the
South. For even if the negro were dis
franchised and deprived of political rights
and privileges, still such are his num
bers and influences upon all phases of
Southern life and society, and the con
tact and intimate relationships of the two
races, that if the negro Is not uplifted, he
will pull the whites down.
"Let the spirit and policy of those
Huntsville resolutions be pursued towaid
the negro, and there will be no negro
problem, os he will so develop himself
and the vast natural resources of this
Southland thnt her ships, laden with the
products of field and forest and mine and
mill, will go over every sea and anchor
in every harbor."
THE GREEN'S GAVE A DANCE.
First of n Series of Affnirn Wan En
joyed Last Night.
A delightful dance was given by the
Irish Jasper Greens at the Catholic Li
brary Hall last night. The attendance
was restricted to members of the com
pany, with one or two exceptions, who,
with their partners, found the affair all
they had anticipated.
During the earlier hours of the evening
there were comparatively few at the
dance. Many appeared upon the conclu
sion of the play at the theater, however,
and there were then enough to make
dancing just what It should be. The
floor was Just comfortably crowded. A
supper, tastefully prepared and attrac
tively served In one of the rooms below
the hall, was n feature of the dance.
The Greens expect this dance to be
followed by others. They have arranged
for two more, which will follow compet
itive drills in the manual of arms. The
company has been divided into tw-o pla
toons, under the command of the lieuten
ants, for instruction, and a generous rival
ry is already shown. The contest for the
prizes will doubtless be very close.
SUNDAY SCHOOL’S FOUND PARTY.
Huffy Street Baptist Children Hade
Merry at Vonge’i Hall.
The Sunday School of the Duffy Street
Baptist Church held a round party at
Yonge’s Hall last night. Each member of
the Sunday School brought a pound of
something in the way of candy, cake or
fruit, nnd these contributions furnished
the evening’s refreshments.
After supper the floor was c.eored and
the children played games and otherwlpe
amused themselves until it was time to go
home. . ..
The entertainment was under the aus
pices of Rev. J. D. Cimpman and the
teachers of the Sunday School, and It was
voted a complete u 'cess by every one
that attended.

The members of the Savannah R fle As
sociation who went to the range yesterday
for the turkey contests had an enjoyable
day. The weather was cold, but the
marksmen were so enthused over their
sport that they did not seem to mind It.
Excellent scores were made, the floor
ing, in view’ of the weather, being sur
prisingly good. It was not only cold, but
a stiff fishback wind was blowing over
the range making the work very uncer
tain.
The members who attended the shoot
were devlded into four classes. A turkey
was the prize that fell to the best shot, in
each class, as displayed by the scores.
The competition was good-natured, but
very lively, and interest in it was well
sustained.
The turkey in the first class was won by
Dr. F. C. Wilson, w’hose score of 86 top
ped the next highest in the class by two
points. The champion in the first class,
however, let the best score in the second
class run above his, Capt. Thomas Hunter
scoring 87, which led the next highest in
the second class by two points. The tur
key winner in the third class was Mr. A.
S. Nichols, w’hose score was 76, with a
lead of four points over the next highest.
Mr. C. Y. Richardson beat Mr. W. B.
Adams in the fourth class and bagged
the fowi on a score of 40,

The shooting was a hit delayed in start
ing. It was the intention to begin at 10:30
o’clock promptly, but it was found that
the targets weie all frozen up and some
lime was lost In getting them free and In
wo!king order. The return of the members
to the city, therefore, was later than they
had anticipated, but the day was thor
oughly enjoyed. An oyster roast took the
keen edge off appetite and was one of the
attractive features of the shoot.
Ordinary round targets were shot at in
the regular contests. Upon their conclu
sion there was a closer trial of skill, live
turkeys having their heads exposed as tar
gets. The birds were placed with their
bodies protected behind a sandbank and
their interest in life sustained by placing
grains of corn within pecking distance,
thereby inducing them to keep their heads
above the bank. The heads bobbed about
pretty lively, but some of the marksmen
manage 1 to bring down birds at ICO yards.
A death or blood meant that the turkey
went to the man who shot it. Someone was
I os ted behind the sandbank to Jteep watch
on ihe animated targets. After a bit the
turkeys were no longer hungry, and then
• heir heads had to be tucked up for them.
Those who won turkeys in this contest
were Messrs. H. E. Wilson, F. C. Wilson,
W. G. Austin, George T. Cann, A. S.
Nichols. T. G. Phllpot, J. C. Harris and
J. P. White.
AT THE THEATER.
“The Little Minister” Seen nt Two
Per forma nee*.
“The Little Minister” was the New
Year’s attraction and it was greeiod by
good audiences at both the matinee and
•light performances.
As most everybody knows the play is a
dramatization of Mr. J. M. Barrie's s.ory
of the same name. The play is one of the
biggest successes of recent years, and it
vat in the character of “Babbie,” that
Maud Adams launched herself into the
place she now holds, that of one of the
greatest American actresses.
“The Lhtle Minisier” was seen here last
season with almost the identical caste
that presented it yesterday. Miss Adelaide
Thurston, who gave such n delightful im
personation of “Babble,” the wilful,
charming and bewitching Gypsy maiden,
was the same, though if anything, she has
improved in her work. The audiences man
ifested their appreciation of her excellent
acting by frequent recaUs.
Mr. Hardis as Gavin Dishart, the “Lit
tle Minister” was capable, though he
might have been better. The company was
a large one and the support was well bal
anced. all of the characters being in good
hands.
The complimentary benefit to be tendered
Miss Jan* 1 Alden, until recently loading
lady of the “Mr. Plaster of Paris” Com
pany. promises to be a great success.
Tickets are being sold right along, and
the chances are a neat sum will bo real
ized. The entertainment will consist of
readings and sketches by amateur artists,
while Miss Alden will also appear during
the performance.
Asa successful dramatic reader Miss
Alden has made quite a success, and it
will be a pleasure for Savannahions to
hear her. Mr. Gillmet, w’ho was the co
median of the Btranded company, will a?>-
peer in a humorous sketch with Miss Al
den during the performance. There will
be dancing after the performance, for
which ticket* will be offered at 50 cents.
Miss Alden Is a member of the King’s
Daughters, and is being assisted by mem
bers of the local chapter In disposing of
tickets for the benefit.
