\u201cThe Future of the Negro: Predicated upon His Past History of Fifty Centuries of Savagery and Ten Generations of Control in Civilizing Surroundings\u2014A Gloomy Outlook.\u201d
\u201cCharleston, S. C., Feb. 21 \u2014 Dr. P. B. Barringer of the University of Virginia delivered an address here last night before the Tri-State Medical Association on \u2018The Southern Negro.\u2019
  \u201c Dr. Barringer contended that the ages of degradation under which the negro was formed and the 50 centuries of historically recorded savagery with which he came to America could not be permanently influenced by one or two centuries of enforced correction, so that when the correcting force was removed the negro, like the released plummet, began to fall.  What has been seen, the speaker said, is but the first evidence of a motion as certain in its result as the law of gravitation.
   \u201c\u2018The negro,\u2019 said Dr. Barringer, \u2018was in Thebes 3,000 years before the Christian era, he was in Carthage and in Rome when those nations flourished, and always as a slave. He is the slave of the nations and accepts that condition contentedly if his animal wants are supplied. Wherever he has attained any civilization it has been when he was under the control of a stronger will than his own, for in Africa, where he has been left to himself, he is still the cannibal and the savage that he always has been.\u2019
   \u201cSpeaking of the  young negro of the present generation, Dr. Barringer said:
   \u201c\u2018By the time he is fully grown he is far from home and has almost forgotten the parents that gave him birth. He is a liar, a thief, a robber, gambler, perhaps murderer or highwayman, fearing neither God or man. This man is a unit of that dark cloud which overhangs the black belt of the South. Before another generation is allowed to arise, worse, as we must see, than the present, the people of the South must act. They must remove the negro from politics and give the ballot to him only when it can be given as a reward of progress and not as a weapon of revenge. The negro must be educated along new lines.
   \u201c\u2018One of two things may then be expected unless a remedy is found. Some question of race will probably arise which will stir the passions and there will come a struggle, a day of judgment for folly piled upon folly. As all classes of the South are of pure Saxon blood, the chronicles of their Saxon ancestors will be humane reading compared with the records of that day.\u2019\u201d

\u201c. . . in the ante-bellum days the negro divided the interest of the day with the horse. The January Court was then the important day of the year; for on that day superfluous slaves were hired out by their masters for the ensuing year, the services of an able bodied man bringing a hundred dollars or thereabout, and those of a woman from fifty to seventy-five dollars.

\u201cCENSUS FIGURES TO PROVE THAT RACE QUESTION IS SETTLING ITSELF\u201d

\u201cConcerning \u2018Snowball\u2019\u201d
Rumor that Henry Johnson was caught stealing from UVA students and shot and taken to dissecting hall. Investigation ensues and students claim they thrashed him, took him to railroad track, and ordered him away.
\u201cConcerning \u2018Snowball\u2019\u201d
   \u201cThere has been a weird story going the rounds for over a week past that a negro boy, Henry Johnson, more familiarly \u2018Snowball\u2019 had been caught stealing [illegible] students and shot. He was then taken to the dissecting hall, his brains taken out and his body put in a vat for future dissection. Thus the story ran, and it was held in full credence by every negro to whose ears it came. . . .
   \u201c\u2018Snowball\u2019 was a confirmed rogue and had been caught in a student\u2019s room stealing clothes on the night of Friday May 16. His captors gave the negro a good thrashing and taking him to the railroad track, faced him westward and ordered him away, never to set foot in the University again. He has not been heard from since that night, the supposition being that he is in some city west of here.
   \u201cIt is inexplicable how the colored population can continue to concoct such stories in connection with the dissecting hall . . .\u201d

   \u201cThe Piedmont Colored Baptist District Association, held its fifteenth annual session with the Rose Hill Baptist church, near Snead\u2019s Store, commencing July 30 and ending Aug. 1. This association numbered about forty of the best colored Baptist preachers of this and adjoining counties. Their object is to foster the cause of Christianity by continual intercourse, the assisting of home and foreign missions, the spreading of the word of God and the keeping in reunion the churches, and adhearing [sic] strictly to the teachings of Christ. They will this year become a member of the Virginia Baptist State Convention by their moderator, Rev. J. T. Johnson, who was elected a delegate. Their foreign mission work will be done through the National Baptist Convention of the United States.
   \u201cThis is said to have been one of their best sessions, the contributions being much larger than usual. The attendance was very large, and was nicely cared for by the Rev. A. O. Gerder, pastor. J. A. Brown was elected corresponding delegate to the Virginia State Baptist Sunday School Convention.
   \u201cThe following are some of the officers elected at the meeting : Rev. J. T. Johnson, moderator ; Rev. W. O. Mayo, statistical secretary ; Deacon Nathaniel Evans, treasurer ; Deacon J. A. Brown, recording secretary. The next annual meeting will be held with the new Green Mountain Baptist church, near Scottsville in August 1903.\u201d

EDITORIAL \u201cWas the South Wrong?\u201d
    \u201cVery few people will stop to make the nice distinctions in meaning between admitting the South was wrong, and rejoicing, as do General Longstreet and Dr. Thomas Nelson Page, over her vanquishment. In commenting upon the opinion expressed by these gentlemen, the Petersburg Index-Appeal<\/em> says:
    \u201cDo these gentlemen speak the sentiments of any considerable number of the people of the South? It is to be hoped that they do not, for if what they say is correct, then it is a logical and irresistible deduction that the cause for which the Southern people fought and suffered and died was wrong. In that case it would be an anomaly in public morals and a violence to truth to create monuments and other memorials to perpetuate the memory of an error so steeped in blood and crime. Every Confederate Camp should be disbanded and every memorial association disorganized. The brave fight which the survivors of the Lost Cause have made and are making to vindicate the truth of history should be ignominiously abandoned, and the partisan falsehoods of sectional writers or school books be allowed to stand as the truth of history.\u201d

\u201cFine Baseball Schedule\u201d
   \u201cThe fact that no game is arranged with Harvard is due to a misunderstanding. Harvard asked for a certain date, and Virginia in reply asked for a later date. This, however, did not suit the Harvard management, and when the Southerners wrote again, accepting the date first named, it was too late, the Crimson having filled its schedule.
   \u201cThis silences the report that Virginia was dropped because of her refusal to play Harvard with the negro Matthews on that team although it is true that the southern gentlemen very properly drew the color line. In the opinion of many, this University does not need on her schedule any team that plays negroes. There are plenty of better teams composed entirely of white players.\u201d

\u201cNegroes Says It Is Because There Are No Class Lines in Race.\u201d
   \u201cAt the meeting of the colored Sunday school workers of the Virginia Baptist State convention at Richmond Saturday addresses were made by Rev. R. C. Quarles of Charlottesville, and Rev. A. F. Price of Norfolk who said negroes were subjectd to \u201cJim Crowism,\u201d and other ills because they drew no class lines among themselves.
   \u201cThe Rev. Price also condemned the colored preacher for using tobacco, and thereby brought down on himself a sharp rebuke from the wife of Rev. Z. D. Lewis, a leading negro minister there, who addressed the big gathering at length.\u201d

\u201cLACK DISTINCT CLASS LINE: Colored Sunday-School Workers Discuss \u2018Caste\u2019 in Their Churches and Grow Excited.\u201d
    The article reports that Rev. Paul Pollard read his paper on \u201cCaste in the Church\u201d and was followed by Rev. R. C. Quarles of Charlottesville who spoke about race, class, and the church: \u201c\u2018We can commune\u2019 said the Rev. Quarles, \u2018out of the same cup at church, but when we pass out through the church door we should then divide ourselves into our various classes and associate with those among whom we properly belong.\u2019\u201d Rev. A. F. Price then asserted that they were all \u201c\u2018. . . being piled up together in \u201cJim Crow\u201d apartments on the railways only because of the fact that we have failed to draw the line of classification among ourselves.\u2019\u201d Rev. Price added that preachers should not drink or smoke: \u201c\u2018The smoking preacher, who is so often seen with a cigar in his mouth, should be suppressed, and we want that class of ministers to know that we are better than they are.\u2019\u201d 
  Ada G. Lewis* then gave a remarkable speech:
   \u201cThe pent-up feeling burst forth, however, when Ada. G. Lewis, wife of the Rev. Z. D. Lewis, of this city, arose in the rear of the church and called to the president, \u2018I have the floor.\u2019
   \u201cShe then said: \u2018I\u2019ve noticed that the proceedings of this meeting have been given over entirely to the men, but now I propose to take a part at this stage.
   \u201c\u2018In referring to classes in the churches, I fear some of you are a little off. My idea of religion is void of all discrimination. It is our duty, as workers, to go out upon the highways and in the slums, to get the children and people, to bring them here, to set them in the Sunday-schools besides the wealthy and refined classes of children and to have them feel that they are as good as those by whom they are sitting. That is religion, the kind I think ought to exist in the church.
   \u201c\u2018The Rev. Price,\u2019 she said, \u2018referred to smoking preachers and other men. I do not think that some of you who happen not to smoke or chew should think yourselves so holy as to be perfect enough to condemn preachers and other men that smoke cigars.
   \u201c\u2018I\u2019ve some dear and close friends in this meeting myself,\u2019 said Ada Lewis, \u2018who smoke cigars and some that use tobacco in many forms, and they are as good as you all are, too. Because a preacher does not smoke or chew, is no sign that he is too saintly to do it.\u2019\u201d

Some years after the War Between the Sates, Belmead was sold by the Cocke family and passed through several hands until it was bought in the 1890\u2019s by Colonel Edward de Vaux Morrell and his wife Louise (Drexel) Morrell of Philadelphia for $28,000. Mrs. Morrell was the half-sister of Mother Katherine Drexel, founder of the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament. In 1897 the Morrells conveyed Belmead to the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament for Indians and Colored People, naming it St. Emma\u2019s Industrial and Agricultural Institute in honor of Mrs. Morrell\u2019s mother Emma Bouvier and her patron Saint, Saint Emma.\u201d

The business of photography has taken a place in every industrial plant and is an inestimable adjunct of architecture and mechanics.
   \u201cPursuing their profession with an assiduity commendable, as it is intelligent, Messrs. Seabrooke of this city have succeeded in reproducing colors in photography.

\u201cCOLORED PEOPLE: Celebrate the First of January\u2014Address by Rev. Atkins\u201d
 \u201cAn Emancipation Proclamation celebration was held Wednesday night in the chapel of the Lutheran church, now being used by the Ebenezer Baptist congregation, being packed with conservative negroes.
   \u201cThe pastor, Rev. Dr. Atkins, was the speaker of the evening, and his address was sound and practical He advised his people to do right, to be law abiding citizens, and admonished his hearers not to make inflammatory speeches, mad recitations, or inconsiderate utterances about their neighbors. Such things, he said, are more damaging and demoralizing than good. The negro\u2019s happiness or general usefulness will not depend upon the great political prizes beyond his reach. Of course, said the speaker, in the development of the two races, side by side, there will be inevitable misunderstandings and friction. The only hope of the successful solution of the problems that will thus arise, is to be found in the sober ____ of the people of both races, and in the gospel of Jesus Christ, the triumph of whose principles will soften the asperities, create and foster mutual good will and forbearance, and effectually dispose of difficulties, which seem now most formidable, if not insuperable.\u201d
