From the Texas Illuminator. The american pulpit and press to- day are wielding more influence ,to- ward the no! advancement of the race, thanat any other period in the history of the race. From the Christian Alex Ciipper. § A very prominent northern white gentleman was in this city recently and in a conversation asked if it} were true that the young women of the race were immoral. He said that such was the opinion largely held in the North. He was emphatically assured that such was not the case and that our people had been misrepresented. We are not surprised to learn that such ultra opinions! are held. But we are surprised that a nation usually so shrewd should display such woeful ig- norance of what in taking place un- der their noses. The;homes, the socie- ties and aetivities of the colored peo- ple display as much refinements as those of the white. From the New York Age. it dependsjupon ,?the point of view. Future State, a Kansas newspaper, Ti fakir, is howlimg around Ke.tucky, in favor ofa repeal of the Separate Car law,.of that State. The Lexingson Standard makes this report, disclaiming any knowledge that Mr. Taylor is a fakir: Mr. Taylor did well in the state of of Kentucky and we have no charge to make against him, but extended to him a most hearty invitation to again visist the State, whenever an opportu- nity preseuts itself. Mr. Taylor is not an angel, none of us are; neither is he a devil. He is only a@ man, an Afro-American,with a Dein- ocrati¢ millstone about his neck. When he is right he should be commended When he-is wrong he should be struck where™ the rooster got the hatchet.” From the Texas Baptist There are many pastors who fail in all that they undertake, because the have uot yet learned that they are no. the head of the church. Christ is the head of the church,and should be given the opportunity of directing its affair by the influence of his love .and ,. th tioly Spirit. 1he preacher is not au ecclesiastical boss whose mandate: iiusl be obeyed under penalty o: serious bod ly injury, or expulsivu 01 the dessenting member. He is the der of the Lord s hosts, the spiritual er; his mission ends here. Frem the Indiunapolis World.

The Bee has an eye on one of these frauds wh» will soon go behina the bars for embezzlement. From the Calif rnia Exponent. N. W. CuneEy, ex-Collector of the port of Galveston, Texas, has lost hi: suit against the Pulman Car Co. $50.0 damage entered against then for refusing to sell him a birth in thai state on account of his color. Th United States District Court decided against him. We have watched for the resultsof his suit with gre i interest and was sure that the _ plain- tiff would win. The New Orleans Monitor tells us that Mr. Cuney will appeal the case to a higher court. Good enough! If there is any justice in the courts of our land, Mr. Cuney is sure to win. ae SPECIAL NOTICE.

How a Country Preacher Rose Superior to the Temptations of Satan. ‘ he was from the country, but she didn’t intend to take back water on that account if she could help it. Piety was the subject of discussion, and Sis- ter Jane, who lived in a town that made some pretensions to being con- sidered a city, had been expatiating on \ the immaculate righteousness of Par- ‘son Jenkins. Sister Melinda bided her time until her innings came round, and then took the floor. } “I don’t mind allowin’,” she said, i “that Parson Jenkins is a powerful re- }ligious man, but when it comes to | downright wrestlin’ with Satan, an’ resistin’ his wiles an’ temptations, | why, I stands right up in meetin’ an’ { says that our Parson Goodfriend can’t be beat by no man. He don’t run a soup kitchen ’cus we don’t have no use for sich things down our way, an’ he } don’t go slummin’ ’cus we ain’t got no slums, but he’s always ready for a tussel with the adversary, no matter how many snares and pitfalls he sets ! for his feet. | “You know, he keeps a maple grove onto his little place, an’ he sets 2 pow- {erful store by ’em. Well, it hadn't been very good sugarin’ weather at the time I’m speaking of. It had been frizzin’ considerable night times, but it hadn’t thawed out any daytimes, an’ the sap hadn’t had a good chance to Tun. But Parson Goodfriend wuz al- lers a gread hand for takin’ time by the forelock, so he got his holes bored an’ his spouts druv in an’ his buckets set so as ter have everything ready to take advantage of the right sort of weather when it came along. “Well, he done that on Wednesday, an’ them trees of his never dripped a drop on Thursday, nor on Friday, nor on Saturday; but on Sunday the sun shone out powerful warm an’ every- thing awas a thawin’. An’ when he went to look at his trees on Monday - | mornin —‘cus, of course, he wouldn't let himself think of them even on a Sund -he found that his sap troughs an’ buckets wuz just brimful. Then what do you think he done?” “Why. I suppose he did what any other man would have done,” replied Sister Jane. “He took the sap away to make maple sugar out of it.” “Yes, that’s what Parson Jenkins would a-done, no doubt,” said Sister Melinda, triumphantly, “an’ it just proves what I’m tellin’ these facts for —there ain’t no more pious man livin’ than our Parson Goodfriend. No, he didn’t shout for joy an’ take that sap away, but he just flopped down on his knees right then an’ there an’ he says —it wuz my own cousin what heard him: ‘Get thee behind me, Satan; you can’t tempt me with any Lord’s day sap.’ An’ then he rize up an’ he emp- tied every iast drop of the stuff onto iu. zround. * next Sunday he preach- Ce eee ed the most convinein’ sermon I ever heard vu. “he wiles of the evil one.”— New York”: Terald. Beauty Wi-hin Canyon Walls. One of the mot peculiar and inter- esting places on the American conti- nent is t being-.opened up. The section across the diagonal line that forms the southern boundary of the State of Nevada, spread California and reaching almost to the’, line of the Atlantic and Pacific Rail road. The old forty-niners passed through this section during the’ Cali- fornia gold excitement. Many per ished from thirst, and the remains of their wagons. such as the tires and may be found strewn name of Lee h: wife, and a family of eight Not far from there is what is beliey to be the famous ¢ of the pioneers, in pas through that section, picked up a piece of lead, almost pure, and made a sight for his gun with it. It was so rich that when he told the story in civilization pros- pectors started out to locate it. The fact of the similarity of all the valleys led many astray, and they perished from thirst. His description of the spot applied to so many spots that no one has ever been able to accurately locate the mine, but the present own- ers believe they have found it. The valley adjoining that which is the route of the Nevada Southern is called Pabrump. It is described as. the principal one of them all for gold and silver and lead mines. Up in the valley, which is one of those dry, bar- ren sand gulches between two perpen- dicular walls of rock, is the Mesquite stamp mill. On one side is the Key- stone gold mine,.from whieh $90,000 has been extracted. Up at the head of the valley is the Montgomery gold district. Several miles above the mill are the Pahrump springs, where a hardy pioneer has settled in a beauti- ful oasis and reared a family. Those who have visited the family say that away off there, imprisoned by canyon walls and sandy deserts, is the most beautiful woman in the West. She is ‘one of nature’s queens, and her fame for beauty is spreading rapidly since eivilization placed its foot in the Pab- cump valley. The Pahrump valley has not been noted for its civilization. A band of renegade Indians—a mixture of the Mojaves, Chingowayras and Piutes, all of which inhabit that country—have settled in it. They once had a chief, and when he died his son was the can- didate for the chieftainship. The tribe did not want him, and would not elect him, so they went without a head, but not for long. Tecopa stepped into the Fine Wines and Liquors, Cigars, * tg{ Job, and has since held it, and is look- ed up to as the chief. Chief Tecopa’s attire consists of a plug hat and an old striped shirt. Once in a while he wears trousers, but very seldom. When Mr. Blake went there, Chief Tecopa said that he owned all that eountry, and that his consent was nec- essary before any railroads could be built. His consent could be bought for a plug hat and a red-striped shirt. These being promised over a pipe, Te- copa allowed the white ehief to pro- eeed with his railroad. — Denver Re- publican.
