«WILL MAKE THINGS HUM.”
Virginia Papers See Trouble With
Colored Troops at Manassas.
Some of the Virginia papers have
turned on an alarm because it is re
ported that a negro military company
from Connecticut will be at Manassas
and the captain promises to make
things hum when it comes to be his
time to be officer of the day.
The offiicials of the adjutant gen
eral’s office in Atlanta, however, are
not worried. The blacks from the
putmeg state will stay in their own
regiment, and assurance to that effect
have already been received. No fric
tion is expected.

from Texas or Louisiana to ascertain
whether they contain the Mexican bolll

that this is merely a police power, and
in no wise conflicts with the regula

United States government.

The president ought to be delighted

|RELIGIOUS TRUST PROJECTED
A Score of Prominent Ministers Hava
Joined in the Movement
Out in Kansas.
| A big trustin religion in the state
of Kansas is projected by a preacher
of that state. A reporu says: ‘‘Already
a score of prominent ministers, repre
senting all denominations, have joined
in the movement, and have decided
against creed and denomination ang
in favor of a broad and liberal christ<
ianity.”” One of the chief aims of the
trust is tosupply small towns with able
! preachers, and the other is to prevent
the over-lapping of the support of two
church organizations when one wilj
answer the purpose. Whether the
brethren will dwell long tocether in
love and affection remains to pe scen.
