THE tribune has more than one occasion
sent correspondents South to investigate reports of
Ku-[lux outrages and other forms of violence. In
some instances our correspondents, whose only
orders were to get at the facts found the reports
untrue ; in others they found them genuine and
horrible ANY person making such statements
those mentioned in the above letter could hardly
have read in THE TRIBUNE Mr. T.. V. Smalley's
account of the Ku-Klux reign of terror in the upper
counties of South Carolina IN 1871 or his letters

Mississippi his description of the Iensas massacre

ZANE STREET YEsTRRDAY.-The audi
dience that assembled at the reopening Of
the Zane Street N. E Church at the va.
rious services was large and attractive.
Evidently the church did not present any
more cheerful appearance than the faces
OF the members OF the congregation who
assembled there at the regular services.
Their cheerful faces indicated that they
realized that brighter days and better pros
poets were in store for them in the future;
that the day star Of prosperity had again
risen, and that he who had been their
guide in the past was still with them.
DR.. Pershing, Of Pittsburgh, Pa, was
present and conducted the service during
the day, preaching an able sermon In
the morning from Hebrews, chap. Is, 10th
verse.
"But to do good and to communicate for
get not; for with such sacrifices God is
well pleased" The text and the sermon
were both very appropriate, the Doctor
showing that 1t was important, when OPP
portunity afforded itself and man had the
ability, it was duty he owed God to do
good, TO the body as well as the soul OF his
fellow man.
At the close OF the sermon an effort was
made TO raise enough money to cancel the
entire debt OF the church. Something
over $500 in cash and subscription was
secured at this service.
The interior OF the church has been
thoroughly renovated and beautified.
The walls and ceilings have been papered
and vanished and with the bronzed gas
fixtures present beautiful appearance.
The walls are covered with blue tint
paper, relieved by border near the cell
ing Of about IS inches width and wains.
coating OF dark brown about four feet in
width.
Mr.. Prayer, who did the work, certainly
displayed great taste in the ceiling dec
Grafton. The lavender paper upon the
ceiling decoration looked very beautiful.

the Sacrament OF the Lords Supper was

Too much praise cannot be given to the
pastor and members Of this church for the
zeal and earnestness displayed by them to
pay their debt and get their church repair.
ed and make It inviting in Its appearance.
They have paid about 500 oil an old debt
in the past fifteen months, besides having
met all the claims upon them in that time,
and we have no doubt but what their
friends will come to the front and aid
them to pull through with the cost Of the
repairs.
Since the above was written, we learn
that the entire amount was raised, and
friend OF the church has promised to see
the lecture room refitted and will pur-
chase new carpet for the main audience
room. This, with the SOS raised to-day,
will amount in reality to about $1,000.
