For- mer United States Senator Jobn Lowndes McLaurin’ of South Carolina, also entered the field with a signed statement declaring his attitude in the matter of the correspondence’ between himslf and Mr. Archbold. _ Mr, Archbold said: ~ “In response to many inquiries as to the theft of letters from my files, the following may be made known: “Over threo years ago a report reached me that certain of my letters had been offered for sale to newspa- pers of this city, ostensibly stolen let- ters. ‘Examination showed that some letters were missing, and that they could only have been taken by somo ‘one not only familiar with the official detalls, but highly trusted, The party ‘on whom suspicion fell stoutly dented all guilt. “A little later, however, a man who repreeented himself as acting between the thief and those to whonAthe Iet- ters had been sold, proposed to return some of the letters for a considera- tion. His story wag that the idea of the theft had- beenoncetved by his brottier, who had at one time been in the company’s employ, ‘and that this brother bad induced the employee al: teady suspetted, to accomplish the theft. : “According to the go-between’s story he had disposed of the letters, oF some of them, to two men who pur- chased them on behalf of Mr, Hearst's newspapers, The Journal, “Not only had. stolén letters been thus traded for, but the. thief was.

It is impossible to say how many were stolen and sold in this way. The thieves worked at their leisure. It is not thought necessary to say more at present or to men- tion names. Corroboration of the go- between’s story of three years ago lay in his return of some of the cor- respohdence at the time. The produc- tion of stolen letters by Mr. Hearst is further, corroborated now. Obviously, among isuch a coterie, authenticity of their output 18 not to be lightly ac cepted. The opportunities for falsif- cation, suppressing of context and dis; tortlons of pasasges are many.” Mr, MeLaurin, who has just reached New York, gave out a signed state- ment, in which he stated that all bis correspondence with the Standard Ol! Company, through Mr. Archbold, was along strictly business lines, and’ he was not ashamed of it. He prafsed the Standard Ofl Company and de- renin aie.

PAINFUL PART OF THE STORY , Jones ties an Idea—The Thing Is, ‘ How Js He to Get It on Paper? pbcheewereoestonantennvensatentene of writing a story are the beginning of it, the golng on with it, and the Ainishing of it; and even when these, @acts have been accomplished to the satisfaction of the writer he still has an arduous task to perform, which is to sell it, There havo been cases ‘on record in which the last feat has never been accomplished at all. To the young writer, like Jones, for Instance, the beginning of his story appears the most painful. Jones has his idea, bis story skele- ton, dancing in his brain, but he can’t get a holt on any of {ts limbs and lay it flat. It eludes him and laughs him to scorn as he’tries to put pa- per and ink flesh on its bones. . Jones thinks of the various open- ings of stories he has read. The ro- mantic style, as adopted by Scott, Dumas and G. P. R. James, comes to bis mind. Two solitary horsemen were trav: ersing a lonely wood at the end of a hot July day. The steeds picked their way carefully as they, passed over the underbrush, and for an hour or two the animals’ footfalls weré the only sounds heard. At length Yves of course} the elder horseman was the drst to break the silence. \(The elder horseman always {3 the Grst to break the silence.) ; , But there aren't any Horsemen in Jones’ story, and it's a matter of in- difference to him who breaks the sl- Jence first. . The New England style next’ oc- curs to him: “Louisa,” called a hard, sharp yoice from the rear kitchen, “you come right in this minnit! Loujsa! Loo-ee-zer. Drat that gal, where 1s she? Gallivantin’ araound them Hicks’ medders, I reckon. Fer the Jan's sake, here she is naow!”* : Jones realizes that this kind of opening attracts attention from the start and gives-promise of interest- ing domestic trouble for Louisa. The spelling of “minnit,” though unnec- essary, has a strong local color, and 4f Jones has a young girl and a cross stepmother in Concord, N. H., for his principal characters he will do well to ponder this opening. But he hasn't. . He thinks and thinks. Ab, here 4s the society novel style: Helen Van Mustard came dows the steps of Mrs. Gallashin’s hous: in the Seventies, near the park, witt ‘compressed lips but cloudy eyes. “Home, Julius,” she said, as sh stepped into her limousine, and a: the ee appointed machine flew along ‘the avenue, barely within th mits’ of the law, she wonderec dumbly how she was going to righ herself’ “with her recent hostess Helen felt convinced that the Count ess Silgzkzowski had cheated, bu how, to prove it? No, that won't do. There are ni over-moneyed people iu Jones’ work spending twice as much as they'v got.” * Once upon a time there was— Ridiculous. It sounds too mucl like a fairy story. Golng to the oth er extreme suddenly, Jones conceive this start: ‘The thousands and thousands +o coificidents which occur in thé dail lives of the present century. toile Anfallibly iead to the conclusion tha “what we term accident or chance i really only— : Hang it!

Its answers, al- though briefly made, hdve indicated that the ghost 1s well acquainted with the movements of the staff, The shadé informed a friend of “Mr. Mc- Hohry that he “had just left the mis- sion,” and to Mrs. George Sommer- er, wité of one of Mr. McHenry's as- sistants, it imparted the information that her husbaid “would be home to supper.” Both persons who con- versed with the unknown occupant of the mission declare that its voice was modulated to the Zoftest tones. _Mr. McHenry saw the ghost on July 4th, ‘The office force had a holiday, but Mr. McHenry visited the church to open his mail.

The hall will house the three branches of domestic instruction now carried on in the Teachers’ College -greatly hampered by lack of room. The courses to be given come under the headings of Domestic Science, Domestic Arts, and Institutional Economies. At Columbla now only one feature of this last department is under way, the courses in Hospital Economies, but with the new plant the seope of work will ha enlarzed. There are now ninety students of Domestic Science, sixty of the Do- jméstic Arts, and fifteen in the hos- pitdl course, but even {his number yeannot be accommodated with labor- atorles, and difficulty is encountered even In arranging lecture room as- signments. . The point of departure, wherein the School of Domestic Economfes at ‘Teachers’ College will be superlor to similar courses offered at many like institutions, will be the continual vemphasis on preparation for institu- tlonal work. ‘This change of base is due to the complaints coming back from all parts of the country to the different ‘Schools of domestic science, whose graduates have gone to fill positions in large hospitals, schools,fbr other institutions. A typical stricture from a hospital fs, “You do not train your pupils tosdeal with large quaz- titles. When we put them in post- tlons of responsibility they are sim- ply swamped tor the first six months, merely by the numbers. The woman in charge of Marshall Field's restau- rant told an officer of Teachers’ Col- lege: ‘I cannot use your graduates in my work, where we serve thousands daily, until they have had experience in handling large quantities." * . Hitherto domestic sclence courses have not had’ the requisite equipment for such training and the experiment: ‘ing“has all been done on an individ- ual or a family scale. To meet this valid objection the new building at Columbia has been planned in all its details to give the students Just thi: necessary opportunity for working or a larger scale, which will add. to the practical value of the training. ‘The plant is to accommodate 500 puplis, and although it will not be ready for use until a year from thi coming fall, a suffictent number o! applications and queries has already been received to show that, there wil! be no lack of students, when the bullding is completed. The struc ture, fiye storles and basement, fs tc face an inner court, and will be the north side of a future quadrangle Entrance from the street will be through a gateway, topped by z square. tower somewhat resembling that at Magdalen College, Oxford. Al the architectural elaborations will b reserved for this {nner court. ‘The basement wiil be devoted to « locker room, where the 500 cook: may change their caps and aprons fo! gymnasium suits, and the'large icun dry laboratory. This is to kave al the machinery of a regulation com merical steam laundry, and 1s con sidered an fmportant part of inst! tutional training. “Any hospital or domitory of an} size nowadays has its own laundry, sald Benjantin Andrews, secretary o: Teachers’ College, “and any womar in charge has got to be’ able to un |derstand it." Besides learning th | true inwardness of the washwhee and extractor, the students are ex .| pected to solve the problem of doini quick work with a minimum of chem | feat assistance, It 1s hoped that thi ‘| graduate will be able to operate < '| steam laundry, with all the speed q: the strictly commercial, but withou tha disastrous effects of its bleaches In addition, the girls are to stud; hand laundry work with a view t seeing how much labor-saving ma chinery may be practically adopted 11 the home. The main floor ts to b given over to the offices, the readinj room, and lecture room, and on thi second comes the three large labor atories for the domestic science ex perimenting, which will be the prid of tho college. The most novel that for “cooking in large quant tles."\, This will be equipped with ; small model hotel apparatus, includ ing the hotel range, the steam boller and cookers, the steam serving table bound: to produce a ghange. More than this, there are hundreds of po- sitions in hospitals and other inst{- tutions open to women with ‘this training. The establishment of res~ taurants In the public schools gives, another fleld right inside the school system.” " "The third floor turns from sclence to art, and there are placed the labor- atortes for all the needed arts. The studios for destgning, on which great stress is lald, are located on the north side of the top floor, with dormer windows In cach room to supply the desired lighting for art work. Laboratories for chemical analysis ef fsou, and two for “household chemistry” occupy the fourth floor, Here the girls will study the science of nutrition, and also the- value of diferent cleansing substances, of heating and lghting material. On the top floor 1s located the textile laboratory, where elomentary weav- ing will be taught, not from the com- mercial point of view as in the Phila- delphla 8r Lowell School; but from the consumers’. The graduates will know the wearing qualities of various materials, of the lasting powers of certain weaves, after chemical and microscople examination of different materials. “This is of real practical value,” the,secretarysald, “for atleast twelve per cent. of a famtly income goes for the purchase of textiles, and an un- trained buyer has no protection against cloth adulterations, which are as plenty as the much-diseussed food adulterations.” For ali this thorough training there is certainly a considerable out- lay. The expenses are naturally, heavy. Outside of laboratory fees, thd expenses for a study year of thir- ty-elght weeks are averaged at $580. ‘This docs not include an out of town student's carfares to and fro, any pro- vision for the Christmas and Easter vacations, or for the girl's wardrobé or persdnal expenses. Laboratory fees for the domestic science colirse come to over $30, while the “extras” for domestic art amount to $77, not counting ‘ two iillinery courses, where the students pravide thelr own materials, but ‘ail'finished work fs the property of its maker. ‘While this seems to make the cost for stich training rather high, it was explained that some students in the ‘domestic courses cut the expenses far below this by practicing their culin- ary art for themselves. Frequently a group of three of four girls doing this work take a small 4vartment and do‘their own cooking and caretaking, theréby reducing the price of boast and lodging to from $5 to $8 a week. Many also aré their own laundresses, making another considerable saving. As this Is only so much practice work J along the Une of their future work, this economy comes easier to them than to the student in a strictly lelassical course. Strange Capture of a’ Salmon. — Fishing-a well known river in Nor- way this June, onfe, of the tenants of the fishing lodge opposite ours caught a fish of twenty-ning pounds in the morning and lost another, his spin- ning line being broken by the rush of a heavy fish. ‘Fishing with prawn the afternoon of ths same day, the same angler, in the same pool, got into a good fish at his first cast. Af- ter a long fight tho fish was gaffed and lanced, Then was revealed @ strange state of things.

Hence I wish to request that from now until the election you emphasize through your col- umns the importance of every minister from his pulpit at evory service calling upon the people to vote in the, State election to pre- serve to themselves the franchise and to their unborn descendants. Again they should be warned to vote against the amendment, so that not a single ballot will be lost. If the ministers of the State will interest themselves in this, they can inten days reach practically every qualified colored voter in Georgia, and may. be this unre- publican and unconstitutions! ad- dition to the constitution will be overwhelmed—will be defeated at the poll. . 7 J. W. Lyons, Rawty against disfranchise- ment next week, and ask yout white friends to vote with you against it. On the Negro question Judge Taft is orthodox and is all thar any well thinking colored man canexpect. His recent utter- ances in this respect coupled with past record, make hima suitable candidate for us to vote for President: 7 One of our Baptist ministers went for those colored men who declare that ery will vote against the Republican ticket, without gloves, and told his congregation just how to treat them, This is right; shell the woods for the democratic Ne- es who are trying to kiss the Fret that are smiting them. Iris surprising that more of our farmers in this county do not cultivate more hay and grain than they do. Many of these same men prefer coming to thecity and purchase hay and grain rather than raising them, Acres of land are lying idle that conid be made profitable in this respect, Letour colored farm- ers bestir themselves and raise on their farm at least enough hay and grain for home con- sumption, and if possible for the market, Tue “Smart Set” manage- ment took advantage of the col- ored citizens who attended the play last Monday, 1t is stat- ed by many, On the lower floor it iseaid the whites were ouly charged seventy-five cents for tickets, while in the balcony for several rows, the colored Fetoons ta to Pay, one dollar. 1s is surely charging the col- ored people for the privilege of going in the balcony and some of them .take pleasure in being thus fleeced. It is batter to stay away. ._ ‘Tux public schools were re- opened this week. , The saddest put was the turning away, 6f undreds of our children who pannos eet Beats on acconnt, of the limited accommodation for them. While we commend our white citizens for their commo- dious and modern school build- ings, we can not but feel jealous that onr children are not nearly as well cared for, Will not the Board of Education hearken to our cry and filla part of our ed- ucational wants? Ovx heart was made to feel ead during the week when it was noted that a large number of the churches and school honses of our people were burned on Sat- urday last in Southwest Georgia and especially because the au- thoritles made. not the slightest effort to aporehend the guilty parties. Not even has the Gov- ernor ottered reward for the dastardiy actors ‘in this wanton deed. +It is bad enongh to burn the houses of our people, but when the cowards put the torch to churches and school houses, they have reached the limit. ‘We are glad that we fully be- lieve that ‘‘God moves-in a mys- terious way”? and at sometime the guilty will be punished. Wednesday. October 7th. The above date will ever bea memorable one for the colored citizens of Georgia, especially that class thut are loyal to the race. On this date the state election takes place: The dis- franchisement law will be pass. ed upon by the voters. ‘this measure has much to do with the well being of our people. Every registered voter should be at the polls early in order to east his ballot against disfran- chisement.* oe sure ‘that you are on time and be sure that you yote against disfranchisement. The African Alphabet . There is in usp on the West Coast of Africa, a system of writ- ing of natives which is said to be successfully competing with Eng- ligh writing. It is called tho Vai language and was invented by Doala Bukere, assisted by °five of his.friends. That such s language exists wos discovered by Lieuten- nt Commander F. E.Forbes of H. M.S. Bonetta, when actively ‘engaged on the West Coast in the suppression of the slave trade. | Tho characters resemble the ‘Egyptian hieroglyphics, but the tongue is said tobe a harmonious one, relatively easy to pronounce ‘and with a grammar that is reason- ‘able and far from difficult. It is being more and more used in ‘West Africa and will probably ‘become the dominabt form of na- tive speech in Liberia and adjacent countries—Monroe N.- Work in the Southern Workman.

OUR MODEL MILLINER. . ‘a gtoas rs = fis Sian ew SS SR 9a PSU eae a SEES Ss isit, Peay. “se a Saket deta eS - RRS Tg Mpa 3 AS BBE R ee Yee” tea Itis with nd little gratification that we Soule nee week's issue of our paper, the superbly: grand “‘opening” of the Buchanan Milligery establishment right here in our midst. That the dis- play of fancy, bonnets and up-to-date styles were equal fo that of any caterer in the city, is the expression of every one who attended the “Grand Opening” of this exquisitely kept millinery store. ‘Madam Buchang ais an artist at her trade and her display of beautiful head- ‘wear for ladies-will~¢onvince the most technical that. genitis has not choice of color or creed, and lingers as frequently im the environments of the Negro as in that of the white man if activity suited to the exigency is evident, Heepuy. for the proprietor of this bulwark of Negro ingenuity, these Yeqnisites-blend, throw, ing the burden of proof to the contrary upon those whose patronage is solicited. And the pablié ia nat unmindfal of the ‘grace of her demeanor, her characteris- tic_kindliness, her lack of ostentation and her perfect exquisiteness of taste. ‘As a consequence the pooole are rally- ing to her support, and, basing calcula- tions ‘upon past indications, we venture the prediction coat ¢ on enlargement of dopartments. will’ be necessary within the next few mouths. Although, realizing the fact that en- geging in ‘atrictly millinery business is i tinetively 9 new; venture among color ed people, Madam Buthanan shies her castor in thistinexplored field, reckoning of success solely upon the merit of labor. {with ker, mevit fa tho only reasonable ‘base upon which one can justly demand patronage, and this we affirm, is the ‘philosophy of successful endeavor. She craves not patronage solely because of her racial identity; bot rather upon the real worth of the articles offered in ex change for cash. 4 a t ae ee open ee one ibe rend of popular thought regarding the situation the Negro in America, should not be overlooked by the public inthe distribution of their patronage. If the Negro means to occupy a position in the commercial arena of the nation, he must build up.a base upon which to stand and contend in the nation’s open mart. Millinery establishments, banks, Gry goods stores and every other busi- ness of which the Negro bays must be established, conduc and ‘patronized by Negroes. it is race pride to do s0, race pride, therefore is race {patronage, ond unless we; ace race, break the ban of custom and’ cléave closer, one to the other, in every honest endeavor, we cannot hope to build up a social, econo- mic or commercial people. Madam Buchanan's stock in trade is open to examination, and, courteous to the core, she finds delight in adding sociality to business, thereby refuting thet erroncong, allegation that success swells the head of a colored person. It is said that, he who would have friends must show himself friendly. The truth of this statement has long sinca received universal endorsement. It is, however, just as trie that he who would bave patronage must patronize. The Proprietor of the establishment here commented upon can be pointed out as a patron ef any concern conducted by colored men, and being practically new in our midst she sets a pace for veteran dealers in various commodities to fol- low. Possessed of a noticeable amount of ferhinine modesty, Mrs. Buchanan does not allow it to carb herjbusineas in- clinations. This grace embellishes ber conduct as relates to those with whom she deals, and the patron secures the essence of this virtue along with article purchased. . Tho business ‘ofj Mrs. Buchanan is here to stay and the good patriotic citi- zens of all classes and creeds residing hereabout will rally to the support of the most up-te-data establishment of the kind in tho state. sneaemnsipeiigremsmanmmccen, AMUSEMENT COLUMN.

One evil pro- duced is the consequent diminution in the quantity of alr within it, which air {s of" the greatest consequence, not only in. promoting the chemical changes requisite for the preparation ot the food ‘for plants, but likewise to the roots themselves, Excess of water injures tho soll by diminishing its temperature in summer gad’ in- creasing it in winter—a transposition of nature most hurtful to perenniels, because the vigor of a plant in spring depends greatly upon the lowness' of temperature to which it has been sub- jected during winter (within certain limits), as the difference of tempera- ture between winter and spring {s tho exciting cause of the ascent of the sap. The présence of a larga quantity of water in the soll also alters the re- sult of putrefaction, by which some substances are formed which are use- ‘lesa to plants. An {increase in the Proportion of moisture in solis has a powerful effect upon its saline con- stituents, by which many changes are produced diametrically opposite to .those that take place in soll where the ‘water is much less in quantity; and in this way the good effects of many val- uable constituents are greatly dimin- fshed, as for instance, the actlon of carbonic acid upon Ime and grcen materials, and gypsum upon car- bonste of suumonta. ‘The proportion of plant foods avall- able’ in the soll for the use of crops 'te largely influenced by dra{nage and the amount of surplus water In tho soll. ‘The directions of the currents which occur in wet solls are entirely altered by’ drainage; in undrained soil are altogether from below upward —being prdduced by the force of evaporation at the surface—conse- quently the sponsioles of the plants are supplied with undesirable subsoll water; but when the land {s drained the currents are from the surface to the drains, and tha, roots are, conse- quently, supplied With fresh aerated water. Drainage increases the ab- sorption of carbonic acid; also the at- gnospherle supply of food, anf cre- ates a tendency in the plant to fro- duce leaves possessing a different structure from those which the same plant produces in dry situations. An- other important pofnt fs that on land that has been drained the system of subsoiling can be adopted with’ ten- fold advantage, which {s an object of the highest {mportance, for there is no doubt that tho use of the subsoll plow has been satisfactory on almost all solls, having been found as valua- bie on’ light lands with rententive bottoms as upon those of a more com- pact and stfffer surtace, rendering solls drier in wet weather and more moist during a season of drought. That a tenacious and impervious sub- soll must bo relleved.trom the water collected and retained on its surface before the earth can be fitted for the’ growth of vegetable matter has been most clearly and satisfactorily ascer- tained. ‘The best mode of effecting this object may be a question, but it 1s probable that undef-draining with ‘tiles will be found the most econom-! cal method. A cold soll is never capable of pro- ducing profitable crops. An excess of water in tho soll,"In-addition to its fnjury: te the soll, also produces a constant dampness of the atmosphere, which has been shown to be injurious to plants, especially by diminishing evaporation, thus rendering the process of assimilatfon slower, and in some sections and on certain farms malaria results; in fact, there 1s every reason’to believe that surface water, which is for the most part stagnant, fs by far the most injurious, because 4m this manner the currents produced during’ the heat of summer—namely, the period at which vegetation should be most active—will of necessity be entirely from below upwards, being produced by the, evaporation of the ‘water upon the surface of, the soll, the consequence being tnat‘the roots of tho plants, instead~ot-being-supplied with water charged with the valuable plants foods, Will be’ supplied with ‘water which has existed so long in the solf that it will have lost these vegeta- ble ingredients, aud. will, «moreover, be charged with excrenrgntitious mat- ters.

His word is truth or it is nonsense. His gospel is either the supreme philosophy of life or the quintessence of silliness. He is either to be followed or not to be followed. If He is to lead we must do His will. He is a captain whose commands are commendable and practicable or an untrustworthy leader to obey whom is the sheerest senselessness. There is no middle ground. Christ is a wise man the eternal wisdom of God. He is a man endowed with a visionary; a religious leader beyond compare, or the most illogical and fatastic enthusiast who ever lived. The church of the living Christ through near 2000 years has proclaimed Him the incarnate mind of God, the glorious embodiment of the eternal wisdom, the supernal leader, the only true guide, the mentor of the mind as the Saviour of the soul of man. Saints have sung of His beauty, philosophers have yielded homage to the purity and profundity of His thought, sages have reveled in His wisdom, martyrs have died for Him. We have declared Him Alpha and (mega, the beginning and the end, the ultimate both as to inception and finality. And yet we fall to practice His truth, to apply His principles, to obey His mandates, to trust His word, to live the life that He counsels as the only life that eternally is worth the while. We elevate Him upon a pedestal of dominating prominence, and then we laugh at Him. We join His church, and then we mkrepresent-Him. We swear fealty under His control, and then we desert Him in every hour of the test. And then we wonder why men of the world have no use for ecclesiasticism, though they cheer the Christ. We are amazed at the paltriness of the church's grip as an organized institution upon humanity compared with what it ought to be; while the sweep of the influence of Jesus is becoming universal. We are astounded that in an age when the Lord of Life receives greater homage than ever in the reach of years, the church of the Lord—the organized body that bears His name—is being weighed in the balance of intelligent criticism and declared wanting. But it is not strange. Too long have you cried, "Lord, Lord." The world demands performance as well as protestations. It tires of the plattitudinous. It expects men who profess to love the good to be something more than plious. For the piousness of the day is almost synonymous with the most dangerous implouisness. Bad men have a suspicion that bad men will be bad. They expect good men to be good. They detest plious talk and a plious mien that gets no further than words and loos. And they are right. Laodiclean Christianity is as traitorous as it is inefficient. It denies in which it professes to believe. It betrays its Lord with a kiss. The world has no use for it and we ought to have none. A world that could contemplate it with equanimity wouldn't be worth saving. What shall we say of a church which too largely practices it? Poo much have we cried, "Lord, Lord," Jesus says, "Ye are My friends if ye do whatsoever I command you. Have we done His will? I say: Loor, loor; enemies; bless them that curse you; him that takeh them away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also." And Jesus practiced His proclamations. He was the friend of God. He did the will of the Father. They crucified Him. He besought forgiveness for His persecutors. And yet in a land blessed as is ours with the heritage of twenty centuries of Christian teaching, cultured and controlled under the gospel of Jesus, the best theory of peace that we can practice is that which bids us to be prepared for war. The very church which sings the praises of the prince of peace is strangely silent before the militarism of our age. Preparedness for war has yet to be proven a guarantee of peace. Indeed it has been quite otherwise. It has been effective more severely. It is purely expedient and never final in theory or in practice. Jesus' way is a better way. If all the armaments of the world were wrecked there would be a surer guarantee of peace than there is to-day and greater prosperity. Jesus' theories have never had an honest opportunity to prove their worth. Those that have been tried, however little, have revealed the wisdom of the Lord. Where nations have ceased to war and have brought their difficulties to the bar of divinely guided counsel there have they found the best results. The individual who follows in the footsteps of his Saviour and forgets injury, forgives injustice, requites good for evil, may seem impractical, but he is the happiest as the most honored among the sons of men. The man who submits to persecution while his trust remains in God may lose his head; he will not lose his soul. External forces cannot steal away that life eternal which is the gift of God. The church must either follow Christ or it must cease to be. The reason for its existence is resident in its recognition of His authority. The secret of its ancient power lay in its willingness to do His will. And as the guiding spirit in a larger era gives her visions of wider ministry and impulse to a service the like of which she has never known she must move on with fidelity and fervor or be discredited and disowned. The church is not the kingdom save as the church labors for the consummation of the kingdom. It is an end in itself. It is a means to the end. It is the trouble has been and is that we have mistaken the theology for Christianity, the organization for the life, the membership roll for the test of membership. Quite otherwise is the mind of Christ. The test of member- sillips not how-warm we make seats, or how-loud we sing, or how-vehemently we pray. The final testing is the testing of service. Do you work as you pray? Do you warm hearts as well as benches? Do you make souls to resolve? Do you regard yourself not as your brother's keeper so much as your brother's brother? Are you true to Christ? Have you keenness to serve the King? "Why call ye Me Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" The question is as timely and applicable as it was when it was propounded. For there never has been a time when the church more largely was cognizant of the ineffectualness of lp service and convinced of the need for resultful and helpful labor than she is to-day. The Protestant church is in danger of becoming priest-ridden—the worst that can befall the organization of the church; ridden with a priesthood shorn of compulsory authority and in whom the authority of the Christ is too precariously admitted to reside. The laity of Protestantism are too largely guilt of-hiring men to do their work for them—at salaries on the average that are an insult to the Lord whose work they send their employees to do—rather than of calling leaders whose business it shall be to direct the energies, rebuke the sins, vitalize the virtues, clarify the thought, inspire the minds, intensify the spiritual conceptions and perceptions of the sons of God who are members of the church of Christ. The church of Christ is full of men and women who have their names on it or in a poorer reason than that it is politic or proper polite or profitable socially and commercially so to be enlisted. And the consequence is that enthusiasm has gone out of the most of the meetings of the church, the gatherings for prayer are generally so dry and cold and uninteresting that they are a distress to earnest pastors and a reflection not only upon the intelligence and spiritual experience, but also upon the gratitude of the church. The reason for this is not far to seek. The laity, and not infrequently the clergy, have been so busy seeking material success that they have had no time to serve the Lord after the manner of the Master. The dollar has supplied so many wants that men have ceased to feel the pressing need for spiritual supplies. It has been declared impossible for a nation to believe Christ, disarm and be preserved against the rapacious agressions of the armed. Business men have declared it impossible to allow a nation to suffer scandal. The Jews have done, till very lately, in the management of criminals has been to jail or execute them. The spirit of the lex talionis—the lowest law of Judalism—is rampant in the settlement of disputes between nations and nations, society and its members, individuals and their fellows. We have forgotten the God of life in the excellency of our livings. We have prayed for reforms that we have neither advanced, expected or desired: We have thanked God for the might of His power while fearful to trust His sufficiency against the onslaught of Satan. We have talked brotherhood and practiced an individualism and that we have no need for aught but joy, and strife where co-operation would more thoroughly fulfil the plans of God, by and with the consent—tact, or active—of the church. The situation cannot endure. The church must reform or reillipish her claim to primacy and to the privileges of leadership. Saying "Lord, Lord," will make her acceptable neither to coming generations nor to her bridegroom. Vain repetitions are valueless to produce results. Action only is qualified to transmute ideas into achievements. To do His work we must do His will. Jesus gives us a picture of the end of the institution or the man guilty of lip-service or of lukewarm adherence to the propagation of the truth. "Not every one that saith unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven, but he that doeth the will of My Father." He forecasts the fate of those insincere and paltry Christians who stand before Jehovah at the great assize. "It is to be hoped that Jesus' picture will not prove a photograph of us. It is not necessary that it should. We shall be recreant and without excuse if it shall so prove to be. No man and no church need call upon the Lord in vain. He who hath called us and upon whom we call is both willing and able to perform through us effective service for the welfare and the salvation of individuals and the race. God summons us in Christ to supreme labor. He provides contemporaneously the power necessary to succeed. He energizes and verifies and inspires and enthouses every soul and every society that with high desire and dedicated purpose calls upon His name. Not "Lord, Lord," but "Lord, here am I, send me," "What wilt Thou have me to do?" Emotion is the Bud. Emotion has no value in the Christian system save as it stands connected with right conduct as the cause of it. Emotion is the bud, not the flower, and never is it of value until it expands into a flower. Every religious sentiment, every act of devotion which does not produce a corresponding elevation of life, is worse than useless; it is absolutely pernicious, because it ministers to self-deception and tends to lower the line of personal morals.—W. H. H. Murray. The Work of the Spirit. The great work of the Holy Spirit, what is it? To make Christ present with us. Look at the disciples; they loved Him, but they were under the power of the flesh. The rulr of the flesh had not been broken, and Christ could not get a lodgment in their hearts; but He said, the Holy Spirit will come, and I will come again to you (in the Spirit) and the Father and I will take up Our abode with you. The Spirit's work is revealing God and Christ in our very hearts.—Andrew Murray. He is All in All. God is all to thee; if thou be hungry, He is bread; if thirsty, He is water; if in darkness, He is light; if naked, He is a robe of immortality;—Sf. Augustine.

One place on the side of his face the size of a nickel was raw like beakfat for three months; and he would cry out when I bathed the parts that were sore and broken out. I gave him three months' treatment from a good doctor, but at the end of that time the child was no better. Then my doctor recommended Cuticura. After using a cake of Cuticura Soap, a third of a cake of Cuticura Ointment, and half a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent he was well and his face was as smooth as any baby's.

San Francisco is chuckling over a story about Battling Nelson, the conqueror of Joe Gans, the "old master." Nelson appeared in a fashionable restaurant a day or two after the fight. His presence made a sensation. He was stared at as though he had been a pretty girl in a sheath skirt. It happened that an English woman of title was dining in the restaurant. She expressed a desire to meet the champion, and one of her companions quickly arranged the matter with Nelson's second or third assistant business manager. "Battling Nelson—Countess Exe.

PRISONERS TO BE PARDONED Those Evincing a Desire to Reform Will Be Released and Offered Every Inducement To Do So. Atlanta, Ga.—Hereafter the inmate of the Georgia penitentiary, who shows a disposition to reform, will be offered every inducement and encouragement to do so. Believing that better results in the reformation of criminals will be secured by releasing a good prisoner, while holding over him the unexpired term of his sentence, the legislature, at the recent extra session, adopted the parole bill offered by Mr. Persons of Monroe A bill, which was the basis of the present Georgia law, was introduced at the extra session called to consider the convict question. It was unanimously adopted. As soon as the prison commission can make the necessary arrangements it will be put into effect. The law opens the door of hope to convicted criminals. It provides that after serving the minimum sentence fixed by law they may be sent out among free men. After a year's promotion and observance of the terms of their parole, they will be granted full pardons and restored to citizenship. It places, upon the prison commission the duty of inquiring very carefully into the record of any prisoner, before the commission of the crime of which convicted, and his record in prison. If the whole board should become convinced that a man might again become a useful and productive member of society, they may grant him a conditional pardon. The prisoner must show that he will be given employment at honest labor, and will have a good home, or, if unable to work, that he will not become an object of public charity. During the term of his parole he must not leave the state, but must make regular reports to the commission. If a man breaks the terms of his parole, he will be returned to prison, and forced to serve the remainder of the term for which he was originally sentenced. An order by the commission for the arrest of a paroled prisoner becomes a legal warrant, and must be enforced by any police officer. Providing the prisoner justifies the belief of the commission, he will, at the end of twelve months, receive a full pardon from the governor. The law does not apply to persons convicted of treason, arson, rape or assault with intent to rape. It was the intention of its author to have it apply to those convicted of other crimes which led to life sentences. In such cases ten years was specified as the minimum term of service. tentiary 745 life-term men. There are 238 prisoners in for twenty years, 138 for fifteen years, 301 for ten years and 295 for five years. While there are 176 men in the Georgia penitentiary over 50 years of age, the men who have spent the longest time in prison are not the old men. A great-number of men who were sent up in their eighteenth or twentieth year have served twenty or thirty years in the pen. The men of 60, 70 and 80 years of age have, in most instances, served much shorter sentences. Convinced that the men who have served a life time of twenty or thirty years for crimes committed in the years of their youth deserve an opportunity to make a new start in life, MAIL CARRIER ABSCONDED. Government Seizes Big Plantation to Satisfy Claim. Washington, Ga.-The plantation of H. L. Aycock, a prominent farmer of this county, has been levied on by a United States deputy marshal to satisfy a claim which the government has against Aycock as a result of a bond forfelture of $1,500. Four years ago Aycock in connection with his neighbor, W. G. Barrett, went on the bond of A. H. Evans, a rural free delivery mail carrier from Washington to the little village of Peerman. Evans carried the mail on this route for some time, and then sub-let the contract to a Mr. Beckwith. Beckwith became involved in some trouble and 'skipped the country.' Now the government authorities have come back on Aycock for the amount of the original bond under which Evans worked, as the bondsman of Beckwith is now dead. REPURLIGANS.NAME ELECTORS. Robert J.

"A conservative estimate of the total yield is 1,300,000 bales, as against 2,100,000 bales last year." According to Commissioner Hudson's statement the decrease for the year will be 800,000 bales, and estimated at $50 a bale, the loss in money will reach $40,000,000. J. Gordon Cranford of Valdosta who was nominated at the June primary as one of the representatives in the next legislature from Lowndes county, has resigned the nomination. Mr. Cranford states that his business arrangements will not allow him to accept the place and give if the attention that it demands. A number of citizens have signified their intention of running for the place Mr. Cranford has resigned. Believing that Georgia's agricultural school law is a good one to copy after, E. C. Gaines, recently elected to the Texas legislature, has determined to introduce a similar measure. He wrote to C. S. Barrett, president of the Farmers' union, for information and Mr. Barrett turned the letter over to the commissioner of agriculture. A copy of the law will be sent him with a report of what is being done in Georgia along this line. In reply to an inquiry lodged with Mayor Dunbar of Augusta by a committee from the general flood relief committee, asking if there was no employment for those left idle by the flood, an announcement has been made by the Riverside mills that work will be given there to all who apply, up to several hundred. The program for the seventh annual convention of the League of Georgia Municipalities, which will be held in Albany October 6, 7 and 8, has been completed. It is a program of unusual strength and interest and gives promise of one of the most profitable meetings in the history, of the league. The following distinguished speakers will address the convention during its sessions: Governor Hoke Smith, Honorable S. G. Heiskell, ex-mayor of Knoxville, Tenn; Honorable Minter Wlmberly, former city attorney of Macon; Honorable A. J. Scott, adjutant general of Georgia; Honorable Jere M.

Mayor Hawkins, for six years in that office, will scarcely offer again. Colonel George B. Ellis has announced his intention of making the race, while the friends of Colonel W. T.

The first man to apply X-rays to surgery in England was burned so badly that he has already lost one arm—will probably lose the other and has suffered intense pain for five years. Of course, the effect of the sun-rays is not so sudden or violent, for there is less power in them when they reach the human body than there is in those other rays. But they are like the mills of the gods—working slowly, but with certainty. Man's natural protection against the ultra-spectral sun rays is the skin pigment. The man whose natural habitat is tropical has the proper amount of pigment to prevent the sun rays from injuring him. But the man of the north has not enough to permit him to withstand the sun in the tropics and the subtropics, so the rays enter through his skin, injure the nervous cells and produce degeneration.

It has developed that the burglars who broke open and stole a number of guns and other articles from Hutchinson Lumber and Supply company at Cordele, might have been the same parties who caused that city to be in darkness, more than an hour by tampering with the electric light plant. In some strange and mysterious way the wires and dynamoes caught on fire and came near destroying a lot of fine machinery. Charles S. Brown has been appointed regular and Willie M. McNall substitute rural carrier of route 4 at Cochran. The current has been turned on at the large Shawmut cotton mills at West Point. This plant, driven by the waters of the Chattahoochee, will furnish power for the operation of seventy-five spindles and will develop fifteen thousand horse power. The new mill will consume one hundred bales of cotton daily and will give employment to one thousand two hundred operatives. The completion of this mill will bring the total number of spindles in West Point up to 150,000. These mills will consume annually 80,000 bales of cotton. These mills at present are running on full time and employing 5,000 operatives. The Savannah board of trade and the American Naval Stores company have advanced letters to Secretary of Agriculture Wilson at Washington asking that he investigate the charge made by a committeeman of the Jacksonville board of trade that the American crop of turpentine for the year ending April 1, last, was adulterated with not less than 25,000 barrels of kerosene oil, costing 7 cents to 10 cents a gallon. Cotton is coming into Elberton slower than usual this year. It is generally conceded that the crop is short, and made shorter by the washing rain some weeks ago. It is opening very fast, and the prospects are that it will be gathered earlier than usual. E ```markdown ``` The Elberton Air Line railroad, which was some time ago put in a receiver's hands, has been ordered sold by a decree of the federal-court and will be sold before the court house door in Elberton on the first Tuesday in November next. J. H. Rowe, of Athens, has been named commissioner to make the sale. The road is one of the best paying pieces of railroad property in the south and is operated by the Southern Railway company. Representative committees from the chamber of commerce, Retail Merchants' association, Cotton exchange and Booster club of Augusta have decided to offer special inducements to the Georgia and Florida railroad to locate their shops and general offices in that city. President R. H. Drake of the City National bank of Griffin in response to a query stated that after a full consideration of the matter, he had decided not to accept the position assigned him by the republican canagers of this state as an elector from the Sixth district. Sayannah, Ga. T is difficult to estimate the value of the automobile wagon for delivering goods in great cities and their suburbs. Storekeepers have felt it in the enlargement of their business and the reduction of cost. Working men and women have felt it in increase of employment and the consumer in cheaper goods and quicker delivery. The rural delivery carrier extends his area and more outlying homes are brought within reach of this beneficent adjunct to the post-office. The motor cab enables the woman shopper and the VERYTHING proves that the white man degenerates in the tropics and sub-tropics. Now, the cause is to be found in the ultra-spectral rays of sunlight. These rays injure or destroy the animal cells—the body cells—unless these are especially protected. These ultra-spectral rays of the sunlight are the same as X-rays, Becquerelle's rays, Charpentier and Blondlot's rays, or the rays from radium, actinium and polonium.
