Twenty six jears ago the Colored

THE APPEAL IS all the go in Dallas.
Whv? Because it contains more news
of interest than any other Negro paper.
There is a certain young lady who lost
a note she had written to her best fel
low, we will publish it unless she will
take Tiih. APPEAL
The Colored people would do well to

The Dallas literary society met at
Bethel A. M. E. Church Tuesday night
August 2 id. Solomon Richardson pres
ided. The church choir rendered music
for the pening, after which followed
prayer by Rev. R. Stokes. Next follow
a citation by Miss M. E. Johnson.
The next immber on the program was a
vocal duet by Messrs E. McMulIon and
A. J. Johnson. The Glee club was
present and also took part in the pro
gram. The best ladies and gentlemen of
our city bt long to this club, and those
who have not heard them perform
should do so the very first opportunity.
The pociety called on Rev. R. Stokes to
address them. This was unexpected to
the Rev. He however came forward
with his usual sweet smile. Rev. Stokes is
one of our greatest lecturers He is a
natural born orator second to none in
this city, He bade the literary keep on
with its good works, and said. "May
the time come when this literary society
shall raise ita banner above all others."
The members of the society were glad to
have such men as Rev Stoke* with them
This is the first opportunity Rev Stokes
has had to be present at a meeting. The
Elder spoke about ten minutes. As he
sat down applause after applause went
up. Rev Stokes meets us again. After
the program had been rendered P.
Elliott, one whom this society can never
forget stepped forward and called the
attention of the president and members.
He said he thought it would be a good
idea for the society to hold its meetings
at one place- At present the meetings
are held at Bethel Church but if an
entertainment of any kind should take
place at the church on any Tuesday
evening then Jihe society would have to
meet elsewhere. Please let us hear from

I don't want you to tell me but just re

we can get our people to readirg more
so they can see what is going on in the
country. There will not be so many
outrage cases reported. If some of our
ministers who week after week tell us
about the beauties of Heaven, would tell
us how to eecape some of the woes of
earth it would do more good many
times. This could be done by giving
talks to men only. Our ycung meif
must be educated to leave white women
severely alone, for that crossing of the
line is the very way in which the sceptre
departed from Judad which was the chief
tribe of the house of Israel. Jesus was a
Mulatto, a cros* between two races, his
mother being white while his father was
Colored. Now you don't believe that do"
you Just because you ha7e been
taught to believe that God was his
father. Well if you don't believe it, it
is because you have never unlerstood
what has alwaya seemed a mystery
Jesus always referred to God as his
father and yet he called himself the son
of man. Now let me explain that for
you. As far as the flesh was concerned
Jesus had a natural father just the some
as you or I had to give us a being, but
his soul cim& from God, he had an
earthly body, but a Heavenly mind. The
body came by man, but the spirit came
from God. Jet-us was the same at birth
as you are when you say you are convert
ed that is I mean his spiritual life was on
the same principle. I will tell you more
about this after you haye had a chance
to ask your ministers some questions.
My business here is not to preach, bul
to explain what has already been preach
ed, and make the mysteries plain to you
even going so far as to open the book -f
Seven Seals for you and show you what
it containp, of couise you do not know
what the bock is yet much less what it
contains, at least I never heard you say
so. But you shall know, perhaps now
you will say that you have read in
Revelation fifth chapter that Heaven
and earth were searched and no man was
found worthy or able to open the book
or loose the seals, but presently it is an
nounced that the Lion of the tribe of
Judah had prevailed to open the book
and to loose the seala thereof. Well if
the tribe of Judah is in the United States
where is the Lion? "And he calleth his
own sheep by names and leadeth them
out," (out of captivity) Judah is that
strong sheep, commonly called the lost
sheep of the bouse of Israel, and if you
remember the Savior of men said.
"But to the lost sheep of the ho lse of
Israel am I sent, and yet some ministers
tell you he was sent to save the whole
world, that is because they do not know
what Christ's mission was The lost
sheep is here while the ninety and nine
which means the flock is over there,
and the reason they are called heathens,
is becaus they have been left without a
shepherds care. The shepherd which is
Gods anointed left the ninety and nine
to go hunt the lost sheep, or tribe, ard
you have been lost for a long time, not
knowing your own selves ai,d where you
