Rev. DIR. Van Dyke in General Assembly.
The paper which 1 hold in my
hand, published in this city, this
mo rning, (the Times,) says that DR..
Van Dyke, en- ore is the pity, sends
nnbaptized children and heathens,
and unconverted Christians, and pa
pists, and ratiOnalists, all to hell. 4"
Then he (tbe writer) goes on to say
that DIR. Ellis and DIR. Ellinwood
and DR.. Irving all concur in these
sentiments. cloud laughter.)
Now, sir, l am delighted to be in
su CHI good company upon any sub
ject. (Renewed laughter) But as
the moderator, from his position,
can not explain this matter, and de-
fine his position to the heather of
Chicago, and for the comfort of the
good mothers of Chicago who may
be called upon to part with their
little ones, l think.

to reply-and in all kindness. in
respect to whoever wrote this, that
he has fallen into no slight mistake.
Perhaps he did not have the privi-
lege of going to Princeton or he
would have understood it better.
(Laughter) Now, do not believe
that either q child or a man Is ever

that any infant dying in infancy,

opinion, and DIR. Ellinwood's opin-
ion, and the opinion of the whole

ted by those who hold other beliefs, which in
reality grew out of them.
The notion that man is responsible for the
fact of suffering and death, whereas both ex-
listed long before his appearance on our planet.
The notion that there can be such thing
as natural moral evil as if any one but the
god of nature could be responsible for ma
lures effects.
The notion of sin as transferable object
As philanthrophy has ridded US Of chattel
slavery, so philosophy must rid us of chattel
sin and all it's logical consequences.
The notion that what we call sin is any
thing else than inevitable, unless the deity
had seen fit to give every human being a per-
feet nature and develop it by perfect edu-
cation.
The oversight of the fact that all moral re-
Iations between man and his Maker are recip-
rocal, and must meet the approval OF mans
enlightened conscience before he can render
true and heartfelt homage to the power that
called him into being. And is not the
greatest obligation to all eternity on the side
Of the greatest wisdom and the greatest
power!
The notion that the Father of mankind is
subject to the absolute control of a certain
entity known under the false name of justice,
or subject to any law as would have made
the father of the prodigal son meet him with
an account book and pack him off to Jail, in
stead of welcoming him back and treating him
to the fatted calf
The notion that unless suffering is in any
sense a satisfaction for sin, and not simply an
evil added to precious one.

killing Of S. P. Malone, at Hickory valley
On Wednesday Of last week most urs
fortunate affair occurred at Hickory Vallry
in this county.
1t seems that Monroe Avant had favor
tie pointer dog which had followed him to
the depot on Thursday, the Sth inst Oscar
Malone. son of S. P. Malone, a lad ten
years old, threw the dog off the platform to
the ground beneath, distance of about FIVE
feet. Hearing the fall Avant asked the boy
not to do so again, telling him he would
slap him if he did. Oscar, however, paid
no heed, and endeavored afterwards to again
throw the dog off the platform. Avant see
ing this slapped him on the shoulder.
The boy cried, and threw c1ods at Ayant.
who retired into the depot. Mr. S.
p Malone was sitting during the time just
across the railroad on the platform of Nc
Anulty's store playing drafts, and when in
formed of what had happened did not al
low it to interfere with the game.
Next morning, however, he seemed to
have become angry, and threatened to chas-
tise Avant, and coming to town met him in
McClarty's store. Turning to Avant he ask
ed him is he did not think he did wrong to
slap his son, to which Avant said that he
reckoned he did Avant was sitting on a
small box, and Malone rising from his seat
struck him a blow on the back of his head.
As Avant recovered himself, Malone drew
back with clenched fist to strike again, when
Avant drew an old Barlow knife opened it
and thrust it into Malone about two inches
below the left nipple Malone then seized an
oak chair, and throwing it, struck Avant,
bruising his arm and shoulder. Thereupon
he turned and walked out of the house,
stating that he was stabbed, and in ten min
utcs he was dead.
Young Avant is 174 years old, and lives
in Hickory Valley, only a few steps from
the place of the killing. Malone lived
about a-mile from Hickory Valley, and was
about 50 years old. He leaves a wife and
! several children. The sad occurrence ha,
east a gloom over the community, and i:
most deeply regretted.
Avant was arrested and the case investi,
gated before A. H. Rose, and J. p. Ferguson
Justices of the Peace. He gave bail in the
sum of 81 800 for his appearance at mex
Circuit Court.
The daily papers are fill with accounts O
just such fatal deeds, all the result of tn,

cases these sad occurrences do not tax,

SALISBURY, Tenn, aug. 10, 1911.
EDITORS BULLETIN An Unprecedented
haiIstorm swept over a number of farms
southwest of Salisbury this afternoon, do
ing immense damage to the crops. Cotton
was stripped of nearly all its leaves, the
limbs broken and many of the stalks entire
" cut down. The blades of the corn were
either knocked off or cut into ribbons. The
fruit was in places all knocked from the
trees, and even watermelons were not allow
ed to escape, but holes were knocked in them
as large as hen eggs. 1t is indeed a serious
calamity to many of our farmers. Mr.
Todd thinks he is injured to the amount of
$1,000, and many others say that they are
ruined. Trustworthy men say that there
were plenty of hailstones as large as a mans
fist, and that many OF them were fiat, some
even as large as his two hands After the
rain that followed the hail had ceased, one
stone was measured which was six inches in
circumference. The cloud came from the
northwest, but there was not much hail
! from it till it passed south of us. We have
not yet learned how far it extended, but the
/ farms south, southwest and southeast OF
/ town suffered very heavily. Those who
witnessed it say they never saw anything
that would even approximate it.
