Peace Societies.

The Peace Cause is as old as the
Christian religion. but the first Peace
Society of modern times, was organ
lied in the City of New York in the
Summcr of 1915, when the sad re.
suits of cur last war with Great Britain
were yet fresh in the minds of the
people. Thirteen years later, the
Americcn Peace Society was formed
IN Boston, SO that it has been in opera
ton more than forty-fve years. It's
objects are to prerent wars between
nations and lcbcllions at home. If it
cannot prevent all such. it will not Ia
Dor in vain if it furestalis one in Il
hundred, any more than Temperance
Societies, because they cannot abolish
all lntcmpcrance.
Peace Societies in our country and
Europe, hope to accomplish their OBJ
jects by bringing the truth, and espe-
cially the truth of the Gospel, to bear
on the custom Of war. They propose,
as substitutes for it, mutual forbear-
Observation-Disclosures an d
ultimately Congress, or High Court Of
Nations, to settle national difficulties.
So numerous and Influential have they
become, that they have already done
much for the maintenance of peace
But much more must be done, or the
demon of war will continue to curse our
country and the world.
The American Peace Society has
various appliances for influencing pub.
lie sentiment. 1t publishes month
ly periodical-the "Advocate of
Peace which is worthy of wide cir
culation. 1t has on its catalogue
about one hundred different books and
tracts written with great ability. and
containing facts, arguments, incidents,
and Illustrations which ale perfectly
convincing. 1t employs agents aud
and colporteurs to bring the cause be-
fore the people by the living voice
aud the circulation of its publications.
1t beSpeaks the aid Of Editors, Minis
ters, Teachers, and all others in it's
heav"n-born enterprise.
1t is commended by such men as
Governor buckingham, Bishop Nor
ris, Professor Peabody, Stephen H.
Tying, Howard Malcolm, Z. O. Haven,
Reverdy Johnscn, David D. Field,
William L. Dodge, George H. Stuart
and thousands of other pbilanthropists
and chriStiaus If all will cooperate
with it and do what they can to pro-
duce a right public sentiment, in rela-
tion to war, the time will come when
national duels will be as unpopular as
ones are now.

A Temperance Organization for
the Colored People.


For long time the Importance Of
organizing temperance societies among
the colored people has been felt by all
who have the general prosperity Of
the cause at heart. 1t is patent that
since the war Incorporate drinking has
made sad havoc among the negroes.
Whiskey is the cause of more than
half their troubles. Something should
be done to check its reckless use. A
great difficulty has heretofore been in
the way of organizing societies among
them. AS matter Of course they
could not be admitted as members Of
the orders iu existence to which the
white people belong, and they them
selves are not disposed to 60 into any
thing of the kind unless the organiza-
tlon Is very similar to those OF the
whites. We learn that the Executive
Committee of the Independent Order
of Good Templars of South Carolina
have concluded to organize an order
for the colored people similar to their
own, and have appointed Rev. H. NJ.
Mood, G. W. c. r., to prepare a
ritual.
We are glad this step has been
taken, and wish it successful fruition.
Temperance organizations have ac-
complished good work among the
whites. It is reasonable to expect a
like result amoug the colored people.

An Account Of the Base Ball
Contest Between NewD erry
and COkcSbury.
Monday, the Oath, the first nine of the
Newberry Base Ball Club took the up
train to play Il match game Of Base Ball
ut Cokesbury, with the club at that
place. The Club arrived at Hodges
Depot ut 40 p. NJ, and We're met by
4 committee of the CokcSbary Club, who
invited them Immediately TO i splendid
dinner, after which they took the New
berry boys to their respective houses in
fine turn-outS, where they immediately
donned their uniforms. All soon AZ
rived on the grounds Of the Cokcsbury
Club. where hundreds of the citizens OF
the town and surrounding country had
already collected to witness the con-
test. The Newbcrrians lost the toss"
and went to the but, bit were sent
out to the field after scoring several
runs. The Cokcsburians then took
their tnrn at the bat and make several
rms, when they also went to the ilcld.
Then commenced the bad play Of the
Ncwberry boys. Repeated chances for
outs We're given them which they did
not accept, while the CokcSbnry boys
did some of their best playing. The
Ncwberry boys were whitcwashed in
ming after inning, while the Cekes-
burians scored run after run. The
game continued in this style until the
end. when the score stood: Newberrv.
Is; Cokeshury, a. 1t was the worst
defeat the Ncwberrians had ever re-
ceivcd. Their batting was very poor
scarcely ever hitting 4 ball to the out
field. While the Unfolding was very
poor, the out-lielding was capital. The
Cokcsburians did most excellent batting
and fielding. Many suppose, that the
presence of so many people, but eSpe-
cia!ly of the ladies, was the cause OF so
bud 4 defeat for the Newberrians-thls
being their first match game. The
NewberrianS were so surprised by their
bad defeat that they Immediately ac-
cepted 4 challenge for 4 second game
on the same ground. This surprised
many, Siqce the easy victory of the
Cokcsburlans.
The second game commenced by the
NewberrianS being sent to the bat
Then they showed the Cokesburians
that they were masters of the situation.
They led off beautifully, though the
first man was put out on Z ''pop fly"
The Cokesburians led off equally rs
well. Then commenced the Newber-
rians' old style Of play. They had
gotten used to the crowd, the cheering,
and, not least, the ground. The New
berrians finished with L score Of T.
