3ATUKDAY AUGUST 2, 1902.

The lynching of Negroes goes merrily on. What shall the harvest be?

The need of the hour is race upbuilding. What are you contributing to the material growth of the race? Is it good or evil?

Race unity is essential in our business and professional life. Stand by those who essay to progress along material lines.

Notwithstanding his mahy sins of omission and commission, Mayor Bookwalter is certainly entitled to credit for wiping out the ‘*Buugaloo” gang of rowdies.

The Democrats in the First Dis trict express fear of the Republicans importing negro voters from Kentucky for the Fall election. W T e think this purely a cry of wolf but if the Republicans have any thought of so doing, we suggest that the Democrats import Tillman.

The signs of the times, point to an era of progressiveness and busi ness prosperity among the colored people of Indiana. It is no strange sight to see a colored man conducting a business, because most every city affords at least one. Here in Indianapolis, there has been a steady advance along commercial lines. There is hardly a week passes that fails to witness the launch ing of a commercial craft. And this condition is as it should be, and is encouraging. It is evidence of thrift and industry, promotes confidence, and gives mediums of employment to the boys and girls of the race. Our business activities show that w« are not as dependent upon the whites as formerly, but, like the baby, we are standing alone and are destined to walk. Our advice to the young men of the race is to be industrious, save your earnings and go into business.

and progiess are not closed. The better eleme't are classed with these criminals and there is bu*. one remedy—the condemnation cf crime and the punishment of vagrants and criminals. We hope the authorities will use every effort to detect acid punish colored criminals and vagrants, believing that this is the only thing to encourage thrift and energy among this lawless element. Paste-Pot and Scissors L«adln0 Thought Expressed by the Afro American Dress Our southern white friends are finding that the Negroes are making their way north. This exodus may help to solve the Negro problem, some think, but the solution of the problem through this medium will bring the southern aristocrat and gentlemen face to face with a more serious problem. The problem of a faithful, trustworthy, and polite laborer to till the soil; drive his carriage and to wait upon him in a thousend and one ways that he is satisfactorily served by the Negro nowadays.—The Reformer. We need unselfish men; men, who are rea’ly in earnest when they come to the front as leaders, inveighing against those who deny us our rights in church and state; men, who upon assuming the responsibilities of organizing the potential forces within us for effective resistance or aggresive attack in our behalf, will be no mere carpet knights, but men who will do right valiant service. — Washington Record. Everybody must work at something. This is the inexorable law of nature, and he who tries toescape it will be brolten upon the wheel. Servers and the served simply exchange places as the character of service is required, and the best thinkers dismiss the threadbare notion that any particular kind of labor.was divinely ordained to be performed by any particular division of the human family. There is no legitimate race or national line in the distribution of talents or opportunities.—Colored American. The Chicago Conservator. The editor of,the * onservator had the pleasure of listening to a splendid lecture last Sunday evening by the little brainy Lavenia Sneed wife of Prof. Charles Seed, of Indianapolis, and it was one of the best for the times and ccnditions of the colored people we ever listened to. The lecture was delivered at Olivet Baptist Church and that spacious auditorium was full to overflowing of a people who gave the closest attention to the eloquence and instructive words of the speaker. The title of the lecture was “Cobwebs” the novelty ot which was both unique and attractive. The lecture was so full of strong, practical points, and was so instructive in good and useful matters, both to the young and old, that nothing short of the spread of the whole lecture oefore our readers would seem to do it justice. If Mrs. meed, who is young and brilliant, could do nothing else during a long lifetime but sptnd her time iu imparting such instruction to the race as tnis lecture contained her time would be well spent and the race would be greatly benefited. Mrs. Sneed’s lecture on‘ Cobwebs” should be delivered in every church in the city,

Superintendent Shaw of the Marion County work house discloses the fact that of the 183 prisoners in that institution over two-thirds of these are Negroes. Among other thing?, he says: “It U astonishing to note the number of negro prisoners that give cities in Southern States as their home address The majority of the negroes now confined in the work house are from South Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky. They are in most cases vagrants. “Indianapolis seems to be a center for negro emigrants from the Soutn, and they come here professing to seek work. They almost invariably land in the work house and become county charges ” The only encouraging thing about this state of affairs that these negroes are foreigners. The condition is caused by Negroes leaving the Southern States, on account of inhuman treatment. While the charge wf vagrancy is not a criminal one, and they would rather face it than endure the a’rocities of the southern white man. This condition of affairs, while not equitable, is hurtful to the race Vagrancy, under no condition, is to be condoned. That part of the local colored population, that is in the work house is only a small per cent ot the part that should be confined there. Too much vagrancy, too much lawlessnes and too much criminality are being daily com. mitted by Negroes in this city, to whom the avenues of advancement

The price of wheat, corn, oats, hay. hogs, etc., is not making Democratic votes; in fact the leaders of Democracy are fearful lest the rank and file of their party desert bodily and join the forces that favor, and bring about such prosperity. Thinking Democrats are realizing that there is more good in the Republican party than they ever thought—Brookville American.

A Time of Vigilance. There is no uneasiness in the Indiana Republican camp. The sentries are out, and the officers and men are alert. That means victory, especially since the enemy is weak in storming breastworks.—Evansville JournalNews.

Savannah, Ga., July 23, 1902. Editor The Recorder: Please allow me to say through the columns of your notable enterprise, that I am getting along splendidly in my new field of labor.

The A. B. C. B. B. Club will give an entertainment at Capitol Hall, Tuesday evening, August. Rain spoiled what was to have been a good game, last bunday. The A. B. C’s went to Rochester, Ind to play the Rochester Giants, one of the strongest white in Northern Indiana, but owing to the inclement weather, the game could not be played. The Indianapolis Unions went to Vincennes, last Sunday, determined to win a game from the Idaho Stars, who defeated them, in a game before. With Daugherty and Mitchell doing box duty they won the game, by a score of 6 to 4. Lash knocked two home runs for the Unions. Last Saturday, the A. B. C’s seemed to play in their best form. They met and defeated the Vendomes and the Eastern Stars allowing neither team to score a run against them. Talbott, pitched against the Vendomes, winning his game by a score of 9 to 0, and Logan, who pitched against the Eastern Stars won his game with a score of 8 to 0. Rumors have reached our office, that the league has about broken up. As we think that the public has shown more interest than ever in base-ball affairs, this year, we hope that the rumors are untrue. The Vendomes play in Haughville, Sunday afternoon. The Indianapclis Unions play the Indianabolis Brewing Co. team, Sunday. The A. B. C’s play the Grays at Brighton Beach Sunday afternoi n. Manager Watkins of the Indianapolis Ball team has promised the Unions a game. The Herculeans have reorganized and are now playing gilt edged ball. The club will take a five weeks trip thronghout Indiana, representing and advertising the Molive Plow Company. They played the Noblcsville Grays, defeating them by a score of 7 to 1. The plaving of G. and A. White and Capt. Hardy were the features of the game. Manager Adams of the A. B C’s states that he will accomodate the Unionls with a game at the first opportunity. For the present, he is crowded with engagements, but he promises the Unions a game in the near future.

Text of tUe I.cmmoii, Ex. xl, 1-3S. Memory Verses. 1-3—Golden Text, I*s. c. 4—Commentary Prepared by Rev. 1». M. Stearns. [Copyright. 1902, by American Press Association.] 1. 2, 17-19. And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying. On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation. Thus Moses was commanded, and thus he did in every particular just as he was commanded. See verse 1G and compare the sevenfold obedience in verses ID, 21, 23, 23, 27, 2D, 32. This whole chapter gives a twofold statement of the completion and erection of the tabernacle—verses 1-1G the Lord’s command and 17-33 Moses’ obedienceafter which the Lord approves and accepts the work. About three months after they left Egypt at Mount Sinai the Lord said to Moses. “Let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them,” and the full instructions concerning it and the priesthood are found in chapters xxv to xxx, while tlie account of the work as it was done is found in chapters xxxv to xxxix, and in the lesson today we have the erection and dedication on the first day of the first month of the second year. As with this building, so with the temple of Solomon—God Himself, and God alone, was the architect (I Chron. xxviii, ID). A very peculiar thing about the material for the tabernacle was the willingness of the people and the abundance of the gifts, so that Moses had to restrain the people from bringing (chapter xxxvi, G, 7). 3, 20, 21. And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony and cover the aik with the vail. This was the only vessel in the holy of holies and spoke of Christ, in whose heart was the law and who is the end of the law for righteousness to every believer. The wood and gold suggest His humanity and divinity. He is indeed our mercy seat (Rom. iii, 25, R. V.>, where alone God can meet the sinner, and the vail speaks of His body (Ileb. x. 20), which concealed the glory while He was here on earth. The cherubim beaten out of the same piece of the gold of the mercy seat, and also figures of the same worked in the vail tell of His body, the church, and our oneness with Him. 4, 22-25. And thou shalt bring in the table and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it, and thou shalt bring in the candlestick and light the lamps thereof. In these two vessels in the outer or first room, the holy place, we see Kim who said, *‘I am the Bread of Life,” “I am the Light of the World” (John vi, 33; viii, 12). We see His death and resurrection iu the sowing and reaping of the grain, and His sufferings are also set forth in the grinding of the grain (John xii, 24; Isa. xxviii, 28). His sufferings are also seen in the pressing or bruising of the olives to obtain oil for the lamps. 5, 26-28. And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle. This was the third and only other article of furniture in the holy place, and on it the priest was to burn incense morning and evening (Ex. xxx, 7, 8). It suggests the merits and excellencies of the Lord Jesus in His present great work of intercession for His people, for apart from Him no service can be accepted. €, 29. And thou shalt set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation. This brazen altar or altar of burnt offering represents the work of Christ ©n Calvary suffering in our stead for our sins. It was just within the court by the entrance, and there was blood upon it and at the foot of it. It was impossible to enter the tabernacle except by this altar, so that any who would not accept the way of the blood could not possibly enter. 7, 30-32. And thou shalt set the laver be tween the tent of the congregation and the altar and shalt put water therein. While the brazen altar proclaims justification and also that phase of sanctification which refers to our standing in Christ before God (Rom. v, 9; Heb. x, 10, 14), the laver points to the continued cleansing in daily life by the word of God (John xvii, 17; xiii, 10; Ps. cxix, 9). 8, 30. And thou shalt set up the court round about and hang up the hanging at the court gate. This linen fence hung upon wooden pillars and attached to them by silver hooks, each pillar standing in a socket of brass and kept upright by cords attached to brass pins driven in the earth, is all suggestive of redemption by blood, the righteousness provided for us and the way we are kept by the power of God. A pillar could not be a part of the tabernacle while it stood as a tree in the forest, but it had to be cut down and put upon a new foundation. This suggests the new birth. We are plainly told in Rev. xix, 8, that the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. 9-1G. Both the high priest and his sons and the tabernacle and all its vessels had to be anointed, for all were set apart to be holy unto the Lord and to minister unto Him, His special possession. set apart for Himself, meet for His use (Tit. ii. 14, R. V.; Ps. iv, 3; II Tim. ii, 21). 34, 35. The glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. So He will fill us if we are willing and obedient and wholly set apart for Himself, our bodies a living sacrifice, that He may he glorified in us, our de termination that of Paul in Phil, i, 20; iii, 10, etc. 30-38. The pillar of cloud was to them a guide, a light, a shield, au oracle, an avenger, a covering, for God Himself was in it. It was the symbol of His presence in the sight of all the people.
