STILL A GREAT PROBLEM
President Gladden Says Education
Prosecuted Along Lines Already
Begun in the Sou*' Will Re
sult in Much Good.
New London, October 23.—The conven
tion of the American Missionary asso
ciation came to an end tonight after
President Washington Gladden of Ohio
who was re-elected today, had delivered
the annual address. In addition to Pres
ident Gladden these officers were elect
ed:
Vice presidents, Alex. McKenzie, Mas
sachusetts; the Rev. Henry A. Stinson of
New York, the Rev. James W. Cooper of
Connecticut, the Rev. William H. Strong
of Michigan, President Arthur T. Hadley
of Connecticut.
Recording secretary, the Rev. Asher
Anderson of Massachusetts.
Corresponding secretaries, the Rev. A.
F. Beard of Newark, the Rev. F. P.
Woodbury of New York, the Rev. C. J.
Ryder of New York.
Treasurer, H. W. Hubbard of New
York.
Among the papers read at the morning
session was one by Secretary C. J.
Ryder of New York. The secretary stated
that the income from the churches this
year was $2795 less than for the aver
age for the last three years. Sunday
I schools show an increase of $904. Endeavor
I societies have increased their gifts $230.
Number of Churches.
The total number of contributing
churches last year was 1906, and of non
contributing churches 8848. The great body
of living givers put into the treasury
last year $169,786. The Indian work has
greatly suffered from this loss. Twenty
per cent increase in donations would
mean $200,000.
The afternoon session was devoted to
women's work in the missions. Mrs.
Washington Choate, president of the
Connecticut union delivered an address,
and the annual report of the bureau of
women’s work by Miss D. E. Emerson
of New’ York attracted attention.
Miss Mary S. Westgate of Blowing
Rock, N. C., Mrs. Ella Sheppard of Nash
ville, Mrs. H. H. Proctor of Atlanta, and
Mrs. Minnie Crossthwalte of Knoxville
were among the speakers.
An address by the Rev. H. H. Proctor
of Georgia wTas listened to with partic
ular interest in connection witn a report
of southern church work by the Rev.
EdwardUh. Noyes, D. D., of Massachu
setts.
“As a race," said Mr. Proctor, “we
form one-tenth of the nation, and one
third of the south. We shall contribute at
least that proportion toward tearing
down or building up. There are 7,000,000
negroes In the south, and of these at
least 4,000,000 are outside of any church—
as many as were set free a generation
ago. One-half the black race is un
changed and one-half of the existing
churches* are totally incompetent to meet
the religious needs of their members.
Fully one-half of the ministers are yet
unprepared mentally and spiritually to
properly minister to the people.
Have Built Many Schools.
“No other denomination has built as
many schools amongst us as the Con
gregationalists and no other denomina
tion has so few churches. The success of
your school work makes the expansion
of our church work Imperative.
“There is a real breach between the
old church and the new negro. Unless It
be filled we shall reap a crpp of black
Infidels. The best way to fill that breach
is to multiply Congregational churches In
the south. The young negro today is do
ing an immense amount of*thinking. He
is thinking on questions of religion. Un
less the church can answer the deep
questions he is pondering and propound
ing he will turn away from it."
In his address last night President
Gladden said:
“What a tremendous problem still Is
this problem of the hlac^ race at the
south. There have been times when it
seemed to us that we were getting it
pretty well off our hands, but no such
possibility is now in sight. It was never
a more serious question than It is today.
“The men who are seeking to co-operate
with the southern people in promoting
the general cause of education at the
south have undertaken a most patriotic
service. Their efforts are directed to
wards the education of the negro; It is
promotion of education in the whole
country irrespective of race, sex or creed*
to which they have pledged themselves,
it is not merely an educational crusade
cf the north in the south; the southern
men are In the front of it; the north is
rising in response to the call of the
south with the purpose of using tts larger
resources where they are needed most.
“Education prosecuted along these
lines must result in a more Intelligent
and a kindlier public sentiment toward
the negro and in a better estimate of his
rights and capabilities.
Education to Spread.
"This powerful movement toward the
sjTread of education in the south must
also create a tremendous demand for
well truined teachers and the burden
thrown upon our colleges and secondary
schools will be greatly Increased. Those
measures by which most of the southern
states the negro has been practically
disfranchised represent an ominous but
not permanent tendency. The disfran
chisement of Ignorance or of moral
worthlessness Is not to be deprecated;
but the drawing of the line of political
privilege between the Ignorant white man
and the Ignorant Mack man Is a wrohg
that can't endure. It can only be Justi
fied by the deliberate purpose to reduce
the race to a subject condition. The
southern people are essentially a chiv
alrous people and they cannot build their
citizenship on any measure of Injustice
to the weak. They must prevail because
this Is a Christian age and a Christian
nation and he who counts the poor and
needy among his friends has come to
reign and w 11 reign until he has put all
his enemies tinder his feet."

“Miss Simplicity” Is a musical comedy,
the book being by Mr. Barrett, and the
score by Mr. Hearts. The two have put
together many striking situations and
pretty numbers. Some of th»* numbers
were so melodious that encore followed
encore until the players were exhausted.
Mr. Daniels has gathered about him
many clever singers and not a few pretty
girls, and “Miss Simplicity” ran off with
out a hitch and with many pleasing ef
fects.
As a funmaker few are more successful
than Mr. Daniels himself, and he was at
his best last night. His song, “Babette,”
was warmly received.

So Far as to Put the Game On
a Higher Standing—Re
mains Independent.
New York, October 23.—The members
of the National Association of Baseball
leagues began their annual pieet/hg at
the Fifth Avenue hotel today. The dele
gates during the open session, listened

of the New York league; T. H. Murnane,
Boston, president of the New England
league, J. O. O’Rourke, Bridgeport, sec

w 1' ion can rne reports or Presi
dent Powers and Secretary Farrell were
read. Both reports are long and ex
haustive and are most flattering to the
association. In his report Secretary Far
rell made a number of recommendations
regarding the propriety of tixing a sal
ary scale for minor league players. An
other recommendation Is calculated to
raise the tone of national game.
Mr. Farrell proposes that a player .re
ported for drunken or disorderly conduct
the second time shall be declared ineli
gible to play with any National associa
tion club for the balance of the season.
Among other recommendations mude In
Mr. Farrell's report were:
"It might be advisable to consider a
modification of the 'farming' rule, with
the Idea of establishing a stated penalty
for its violation if it is to be continued.
“It Is recommended that the national
agreement be amended so as to specifi
cally state the period of time granted
club owners In which to accept a player's
terms and retain a claim upon his serv
ices.
"I would reconpmend that provision be
made to penalize any club manager who
communicates, In the line of negotiations,
with any player under contract to an
other club, member of this association."
Letters were read from John T. Brush
and James Hart suggesting an affiliation
between the National league and the Na
tional association. Mr. Farrell declared,
however, after the meeting that the as
sociation would remain Independent of
any other organization.
Mr. Powers and Mr. Fnrrell were unan
imously re-elected respectively president
and secretary-treasurer.
The new national board was elected as
follows:

Eruption In Salvador Causes People to

large quantities of, lava and burning
stones were ejected.
People living In the town of Izalco and

the lava poured, fled at its approach and

The stream of lava, which was very
deep, flowed over a distance of three
miles from the crater. Lake Coatepoque.
which lies at the*foot of the volcano, was
flooded with boiling sulphur from the
principal crater. Fears were entertained
of further disaster. The volcano was still
in eruption when the passengers left
