TnE series Of meetings at the Baptist
church, conducted by the pastor, Rev. v.
Z. Kirtley, assisted by the Rev. Doctor
Chambliss, Of Bardstown, has attracted I'M
usual interest, and from the indications the
past few evenings, will prove a genuine re-
vival Of religious interest among the men,
bership and attendants Doctor Chambliss
is fervent, lucid and logical speaker, and
successfully engages the undivided atten-
ton Of his audience while Elder Kirtley
is jealous and earnest exhortor, and is
held in high esteem by the community.
We have no information as to when the
meeting will close.

Opening Of the Twenty-secOnd
Session of Roanoke College,
Salem, Va.

Roanoke College has opened with
the largest attendance ever had so
early in the session. A large proper
ton of the former students are re-
turning and Few ones are coming in
daily. The session wilt be the most
successful in the history of the Col
lege The increasing reputation of
the institution is manifest from the
large attendance from other states,
while the county and state patronage
shows that the College is appreciated
where it is best known. Students are
already III attendance from fifteen
states Next in number to Virginia,
come Tennessee. Mississippi, Texas.
West Virginia, and Maryland. A
College that thus builds itself up by
hard work and self denying efforts,
without endowment and in the midst
of strong competition, deserves the
success it is achieving. Let all en-
courage the Faculty in their efforts
to still further increase the attractions
and advantage of the. College, until it
is made second to more in the South.
