The commissioners, with evident JUS

port of the public schools, and ask that
the same liberality that has been shown
to the inhabitants of the various States

be extended to the District of Columbia.
The commissioners also invite atten-

had the pleasure to attend the Prcsby

dav. r. ,erything seemed to be moving
on tremendously, with Rev. u, Tigret rs
Moderator. The most interesting bust
ness was the report of the state OF rcli-
gion, and salaries paidto ministers, which
ranged from 500 to 5000,
But the most interesting day WAS on
Sunday. A very large congregation was
presrnt--lnr larger than ordinary occa-
sionS. The IL O'clock sermon was preach
ed by q. W. Mitchell, Of Athens, Ala.
from I'd chap 9th verse OF the Book Titus.
The doctor Is n grave and venclAble-look-
ing old gentleman. and preached logical

house. As the church could not accom-
MEDIATE the audience, IL was suggested n

to W. h. WattersOn, who repaired with
an audience to II large grove ABOUT l50

About midway both sermons could be
heard. and truly the soothing sound OF
gospel rang from every SIDE" 1t remindtC
US OF the history given OF the revival OF
1900. when the pioneers OF our cllrlStlanl-
tv and civilization took mp their grand
march when there was less SOphlstry. less
vanity; when they had 'all things COM
mon;' when every man worsalpped I'M
der his own vine and liz tree.
The evening service was conducted by

ism Of lhc man drew around him an any

attention To the able discourse delivered
from the text THAT al! things work to-
gether tor good to those who love the
Lord At the close Of the sermon a warm,
earnest prayer was offered ry Rev james

The nice arrangement OF the church and
