THOUSANDS OP COLORED STUDENTS
Under the Care of the Freedmen's Aid and
Southern Education Society.
MUCH MORE MONEY XECESSAKI
The Freedmen's Aid and Southern Edu
cation Society, whose olgect is co-operation
with the Methodist Episcopal Church in
Eivinp instruction to the illiterate popula
tion of the South, both white and black, was
in session yesterday in celebration of the
quarter centennial jubilee of the exist
ence of the society. The organiza
tion has become one of the
most potent adjuncts of the Methodist
Church. It was becuu in I860, just at the
close of the war, with the express object of
bringing the uewly-made citizens into a
condition of enlightenment. During the
past 25 years it has succeeded in establish
ing academies, colleges and other institu
tions of learning all over what were formerly
the slave States. Some of the best men of
the Methodist Church have been, and are
at present, engaged in this work. "While
the society, as is indicated bv its name, aims
particularly at educating the negro, it has
also several thousaud white children under
its care.
TVork of the Morning Session.
Yesterday morning's session opened in the
Christ Church, Penn avenue and Eighth
street, at 10 o'clock, Bev. J. "W. Miles, D.
O., presiding. Devotional exercises were
conducted for half an hour. Kev. J. C.
Hartzell, D. D., of Cincinnati, was then in
troduced and spoke on "Our Work in the
South Its Present Outlook."
"At the close of the war," said he, "a
vast nation was thrown upon its own re
tources, groveling in darkness and illiter
acv. The Methodist Church had money
and it was decided to send men
into the South to teach these peo
ple how to become useful citizens.
A few figures will suffice to show what the
society has accomplished. At the close of
the war our church had 75,000 white and
30,000 colored members south of Mason and
Dixon's line. To-day in 16 Southern States
we have a membership of 253, 600 whites and
237,700 colored people, which is one-fi tn of
the entile membership of the Methodist
Episcopal Church. Other churches are
doing their share,but there are still 5,000,000
people to be reached, and the good work
must go ou with redoubled energy.
Great Present Need of Money.
"What we need just now more than any
thing else is money. Of all the schools un
icr the control of the Methodist Episcopal
Church one-third is dependent unon the
Precdmen's Aid and Southern Education
Society. We have 315 teachers aud a vast
army of scholars to care fur. A generous
contribution from cur Northern friends is
necessary to keep these institutions up."
Kev. C. W. Smith, D. D., spoke next on
the subject. He said: "The colored people
arc naturally religious. While they need
preachers and missionaries, what they need
more are preachers. They need education;
they want leaders. This is what the Freed
men's Aid Society is striving to give them.
Colored physicians, colored teachers, col
ored leaders, both men and women, are
needed."
He was followed by Eev. J. if. Boyle,
D. D., and Hon. J. F. Dravo, who spoke in
a similar strain.
At the attcrnoon session, Eev. E. L.
Prentiss, D. D., of Knoxville, Tenn., made
an address on "Our White Work in
the Southern States." He said: "The
white work in the South began just as soon
as it did in the Xbrth. When the church
divided in 1844 and the M. E. Church
bouih started oil for itself there were hopes
of a reunion at some time, but now it is im
possible. The Southern church will never
affiliate with us while wc admit thcblack man
into our ranks and allow him the same
privileges in our organization as the white.
But we are independent and do as we
please. They are willing to allow us to go
ahead and educate the bla.ii man, but tluy
object to our cflorts among the whites,
claiming that we ought to &tay in our owu
territory.
No Boundaries to Its Work.
"The Methodist Episcopal Church, how
ever, recognizes no boundaries to its work.
In nearly all the slave States we have a
conference. In seven we are near in num
ber and equal in wealth with the Church
South, so the work iu the South is pro
gressing as well as anywhere else. Preju
dice is fast dying awav, however, but, for the
reason stated, there never will be a union
of the tiro branches of the church.
There are now 280,000 Methodists in the
South, with conferences growing rapidly.
"In the schools are some of the best teach
ers in the country, and the work of instruc
tion isin every way satisfactory. Soeagerare
some of the students to learn at a school I
visited, they arc satisfied to live on the
mere pittance oi 90 cents a week. Of our
43 schoolsin the South 21 are for whites."
The Eev. Mr. 1'rintiss was followed in a
very instructive and entertaining address
by Eev. K. E. Allen, D. D., Corresponding
Secretary of the Presbyterian Board of Mis
sions to Frccdmcn, on "Industrial Educa
tion in Christian Schools." Dr. Allen is
an old mau in the service. His father and
grandfather were both owners of large
plantations in the South and slaveholders
before the war. He prefaced his remarks
by saving that he has been in personal con
tact with the black men all his life, and that
which God bad given him was to be used
for the amelioration of the colored man's
condition.
"That was a grand doxology," he said,
"which wag my privilege to hear on the
morning the emancipation proclamation was
read Jo a throng of 3,000 negroes at a place
where I was stopping at the time. I never
witnessed anything so grand and imposing
in my life. But one great mistake was
made. The Government should have pre
pared the colored man lor citizenship when
he was freed. There is no negro problem.
Give them the Bible and the spelling book,
aud the country will have nothing to fear.
We have more to fear from the hordes of
immigrants that are now coming to our
shores than we have of the negro.
A Good Citizen and Soldier.
"The colored man makes a good citizen
and fearless soldier; 38,743 ot them were
killed on Southern battle-fields. They as a
people will never consent to be taken to
Airica, South" America or Mexico, as has
been proposed. There are not ships enough
'o carrv them away, and they are being born
luster than ships could be built to hold
thera.
"Some day these men all will vote aud
what a power is in their handsl There are
over 8.000,000 of them. The negro needs
character. Educate his head, his hand and
his heart, and the work will be a blessing to
him. The girls, too, must be saved if the
frcedmen must be saved.
"Twentj-slx years ago the negroes did not
even own the clothes they wore. At present
583,000 acres of land in Georgia areowned by
colored men, and 374,000 acres in South
Carolina, while in the Freedmen's Bank
over 12,000.000 is on deposit. This is a
great record, considering the opposition
against which the necro has labored."
Eev. Dr. Hartzell made an exhibit of the
work done in the industrial school at
Orangeburg, S. C. It is known as the Claf
lin University, and 20 industries are taught
in it. The exhibit consisted or wood work,
Etaininc and graining; samples of finished
iron and steel work, shoes, painting and
fancy needlework. There are about 1,000
pupils on the rolls of this school. There is
a very flourishing school also at Atlanta,
Ga., in which are a foundry and wagon mak
ing shop.
An Interesting Evening Mass Meeting.
The mass meeting in the evening at the
Smithfield Street Church drew a large
audience. Eev. Dr. Hartzell presided, and
introduced Eev. L. E. Printiss, D. D., who
spoke on the "Eelaiion of Young People to
Our Southern Work." The address was an
instructive one, and explained how much
good the young people had done and how
much good they still could do by taking an
active interest in this work. He Baid:
"Our parents hare come to know that we
know something before we have reached
middle age. I do not want to see the old
people taken away before the young ones
are taucht the work they should do.
"The Freedmen's Aid Society has to do all
the work among the younger people of
the southlands. For a time a state of
incongruity existed in our schools,
a sort of rivalry existed, but through the
efficient efforts of Dr. Hartzell this has all
been changed. In our schools wo have an
enrollment of about 9,000 6,000 colored
and 3 000 white. We have had a great
mass of ignorant colored people in the South,
but there are 3,000,000 poor whites who are
immeasurably worse off than the negroes.
"At least $500,000 should be spent an
nuallv in this work of education among the
South'ern people. There are 106.000 in
Kentucky and 90,000 women in Tennessee
who are unable to read or write. Ignor
ance is the enemy of every institution. The
young people should study this problem
carefully, and do all they can to help on
the work in their different churches, and
should pray earnestly for those who are en
gaged in the work.
"The trials of a person who leaves a com
fortable home in the -North and goes into
this work are many. They are completely
ostracized. More money is an absolute
necessity.and it must be forthcoming, if this
good work shall go on, and it will be no
one doubts."
Afttr singing the Battle Hymn of theEe
public, Eev. W. Ii. Davidson, of Cincin
nati, the son of a former minister of the
Smithfield Church, was introduced. He
illustrated his address. "OurSolemn,Work,"
by the aid of stereopticon views. At the
conclusion of this the meeting adjourned.
NOT PAYING RENT.
Tenants of the Mercantile Library Building
Want to Know TVho Is Landlord An
Answer to a Bill lu Equity Made by Syria
Temple.
As a result of the squabble between the
Mercantile Library Hall Company and the
Library Association over the leases, the
tenants in the building have not paid rent
since January 1. They want to know first
who is authorized to receive the money. The
lessees are E. M. Gulick & Co., for the
Bijou Theater; Joseph Home & Co., and the
Syria Temple. Mr. Gulick remarked yester
day that he didn't care how long the soft
snap continued.
Yesterday K. S. Williams for Syria Tem
ple, one of the tenants, filed an answer to a
bill in equitv to protect the Knights Tem
plar. Syria Temple denies all knowledge
of the trouble between the Hall company
and the Library Association, or of the man
ner in which the perpetual lease was given,
and asks permission to pay the rent into
court. Mr. Williams said: "The Temple
doesn't care anything about the fight be
tween the associations. The Temple occu
pies the upper floor of the building and is
ready to pay its rent, but they want to know
first who is authorized to leceive it. If the
money is deposited with the court this will
relieve the Temple of all responsibility.
So far as could be learned Joseph Home
& Co. have not answered. E. M. Gulick,
for the Bijou Theater, said thev had filed
their answer some time ago. They didn't
ask for permission to pay the rent to court,
but declined to put up until the case was
settled. "We don't recognize the Library
Association. We leased the theater from
the Hall companr.and we haven't paid rent
since January 1. It is not our fault, but
we certainly can't be held responsible to two
landlords, and until the case is settled we
won't pay a cent. I don't know when the
court will hear the arguments."

A YOUNG DETECTIVE.
Victor Kaufman, Aged 19, Applies to
Inspector McKelvj for a Job.
REPBESENTLNG AN IOWA AGENCY.
He
Tells a Tale in Which a Baltimore
Oyster Boat Plays a Part.
SUPPOSED TO BE A DIME NOYEIi VICTIM
A boy 19 years old and claiming to be a
detective appeared at the Twenty-eighth
ward station last evening. He gave his
name as Victor Kaufman, and is probably
a victim of dime novels and a detective
bureau advertisement.
On entering the station house, he first
made inquiry for Inspector McKelvy,
whom he desired to consult privately. He
found the Inspector in his private office.
The Inspector was called to one side, and
Kaufman stated that he was a private de
tective, having been appointed by the Wash
ington Detective Agency.ot Washington, la.,
and as "spotting" was a specialty with him
he was desirous of doing any extra work of
that kind that the Inspector had on hand.
The Inspector directed Kaufman to sit
down, and he would see what he could do
for him. He began by questioning Kauf
man in regard to his career, how he came to
follow such a profession and from whom he
had obtained Ibis authority to act in such a
capacity.
Tickled the Kid.
Kaufman was elated over the attention be
was receiving, and answered all queries un
hesitatingly. When asked to show his offi
cial papers the young man produced his
badge and certificate. The badge is a five
pointed star labeled "Private Detective."
with the picture of an eve placed in the
center between the words private and detec
tive. The certificate-stated that he had been
duly authorized to act for the Washington
Detective Agency, of Washington, la., for
one year from the date on which it was
granted. To the lower left hand was a
large gilt piece of paper bearing the seal of
the agency and the date of incorporation,
189. It was numbered 424 and dated' Feb
ruary 10, 189L For these articles.
Kaufman paid $2 50. He said he
had been dointr spotting work for
sometime past, and that was his mission to
Pittsburg. He said he had been engaged in
Altoona a few days ago to "spot" a negro
who had stolen four umbrellas. On Sunday
he found his man on a freight train passing
through Altoona, and getting on, he fol
lowed him to Pittsburg, where he has lost
trace of him.
Letters From Patrons.
In addition to other papers in his posses
sion he had letters of recommendation from
people for whom he had worked in New
York. One was granted by Kursh & Wal
erstein, of 109 Mercer street, and another by
W. H. Taylor, of 128 Park Eow. He left
New York September last and went to Bal
timore, where he was engaged on an oyster
vessel named Florence. He worked about
three months, when he was accused of being
at the bead of a scheme to drown the Cap
tain of the vessel. A mock trial was had
and he was fined S2, which he says wa3 the
whole amount received during his time on
the vessel. He was then put ashore
and going to Attorney Hudson he was
told to enter suit for damages, which he
says was done. The case is in the hands of
Attorney Hudson, and will come up at the
next term of court in Baltimore. After
this episode he worked in a restaurant and
obtained sufficient funds to become a de
tective, and since then he has been wander
ing back and forth between Altoona and
New York. Several attempts were made to
get him tangled up in his story, but he was
too smart for the Inspector.
He was dressed very shabbily, and had
the appearance of not having used soap and
water Tor several days. He is a native of
Bnda-Pesth, Huncary, and has been in
America five years, "the greater part of
which was spent in New York. He also
stated that his parents were dead, and that
he had a sister living in Hudson. Kauf
man was dead broke, and Inspector Mc
Kelvy said he thought him to be a victim
of circumstances and decided to let him go.
DEED OF A FUSE P00S BILL.
Molasses Badly Adulterated, and Pure Pep
per Is an Unknown Quantity.
Eepresentative C. A. Muehfbronner, of
Allegheny, returned to HarrisDurg last
evening. His pure food bill will come up
to-day on second reading, and if there is
any opposition he expects it to be developed
at this time. Mr. Muehlbronner says his
bill is about the only one before the House
that can be classed as public legislation, as
it interests everybody. Allen, Kirk
patrick & Co. sent for him yesterday,
and suggested certain amendments which he
would not accept. They favor the bill, but
desired that New Orleans molasses be named
specially. Mr. Muehlbronner claims this
molasses is so snccessiully adulterated that
it can't be detected lor six months. At the
end of that time the molasses ought to turn
to sugar it pure, but it more frequently
never changes. The molasses Is mixed with
glucose and other cheap substances.
"I know from general experience as a
grocery clerk," continued Mr. Muehlbron
ner, "that foods are adulterated. I will
wager there is not a ponnd of pure pepper
in the United States. Ground cocoa leaves
are substituted, aud they produce indiges
tion and other diseases. If I am re
elected I will make an efiort to
have a State Food Commissioner
appointed. I knew such a plan would be
bitterly opposed this time, and I hit on the
present bill as better than nothing at all. It
will give the meat and mile inspectors more
work to. do, and as they attend to their
.duties in a very slipshod manner now, the
law will be almost a dead letter. The bill
protects the clerks, but not the grocer, un
less he can prove that he was deceived by
the seller. I have everv reason to believe
the bill will pass. There is no opposition to
it so far as I know."
