Columbia District Parsonage.

The district conference held at Big
byville in May, 1880, resolved to buy
or build district parsonage for Column
bia District, the property to be located
and purchased by committee appoint
ed for that purpose. A committee was
appointed to solicit subscriptions and
during the summer subscription of
81 800 was secured. The committee
appointed to locate and purchase said
property met in Pulaski, and after con-
sidering different locatiOnsiand PROPOSE
tions, purchased the property on Third
ST., owned by c. G. Alternately, for the
sum of $1,000. The subscription was
not paid in full, falling $3.50 short. The
trustees took the matter in hand, nego-
tiated payment in full, paid portion
of the remaining $3.50 from rents, and
carried note of 1925 in bank until a
few days ago when that was taken up
and the parsonage is now clear of debt.
Many of the subscribers who failed to
pay their subscription are able to pay
them, and their failure was owing to
inetficiency in the collectors-perhaps
There are several pastoral charges and
communities in the district where moth
ing has been contributed. The parson-
age though valuable and cOmmodious
is old, somewhat out of repair, though
one hundred and eighty dollars have
been collected and spent in roofing,
fencing, etc. II those who have taken
no interest in this property would con-
Germ themselves enough the property
would soon be in good repair and very
The progress made in the |
z. E. department of the district in the |
past few years is worthy of note. The
last year DR., Bsrbee tTaYeled this dis |
trict he received $T7673. of which |
amount he paid $l50 house rent, leav-
ing for the support of himself, a wife
and six children $617.76. This, in a
town where the local congregation of
have fixed the salaries of
their pastors from $1,100, to 1,4Q0.
From this it must be seen that the par
sonage Is a God-send to the presiding
elder and monument to the christian
Iberality of the thousands of commune
,ants and friends III the district. Last
year the district paid me about $1050 in
money. To me the house was worth
200, Quite difference between the

Academy

Rev. r. r. Jones has just closed a
meeting at Smyrna church. There
were about 81 conversions and about as
many acccssions to the church.
We have had some rain to-day the
crops are cut short by the continued
drouth; the cotton crop is opening fast.
&C. w. Claunch was taken from
this community to Fayetteville and we
suppose placed in Jail to await trial for
crimes committed by him in that
county.
-Thos. p. Hollis school will close at
the Academy with this week. He is a
good teacher and we would like to have
him teach for US again.
There has been some sicL ness in
this neighborhood and some deaths
since our last, but we are glad to learn
that the sick are getting well.
On the 4th OF September, Willie G.
McNeely, year old, son of w. j. Nc
Nicely, was taken from his fond parents
on earth to a home in heaven and is
waiting at the beautiful gate for Pa and
Ma and other loved ones. He was a
bright, good boy and suffered much,
but will suffer no more, May all of the
family meet him at last in heaven.

The American PROPOSES a Parley.


The American proposes that the
next state platform shall simply
reaffirm the Chicago tariff plank
and declare in general terms the
power of the state to regulate rail
roads, unless congress has passed
regulation law beforehand, in which
event our convention shall declare
in favor of a similar bill for the
state. We heartily agree to the
first, as it is exactly what the CITl-
ZEN proposed, and while we see
nothing very radically wrong in the
latter, yet we see no necessity for it
and think il unwise. sIhe country
has been wrought upland the party
nearly disrupted over this question
and we think there is imperative
necessity for silence. Under the
present imfamed feeling there can
be no discreet and just action upon
this question. We see another OBJ
lection: We have always believed
that the power to regulate railroads
rested solely in congress and hence
if congress should act it would OBJ
viate the necessity of the Ameri-
cans suggestion. The power to
regulate may reside in the state but
it unnecessarily restrictek to state
limits and circumscribed so as not
to impinge upon the interstate
powers of congress, so that it would
be without power to do any good.

Able Men Needed,

There is very great necessity for
the nomination of able men for the
next legislature. The questions to
be discussed are of prime moment.
The republicans claim to be gaining
ground in East Tennessee. In
Giles let's nominate men who can
discuss the issues ably and expose
republican treachery at the late SEES
siOn-men who can arouse enthu-
siasm and not only win republicans
over but arouse democrats to duty.
We must poll a full vote and every
one of US must stand by the party
in her danger. There will be no
factions when the general battle
alarm is sounded. Let's have men
in Giles who can blow a rich, clear,
democratic bugle blast from the
stump.

Attamnt to Assassinata Sam Tones.

Last Sunday night some miscre-
ant exploded dynamite cartridge
under Sam Jones stable at Carriers
vile, Ga, and blew it to atoms. No
one was injured. Monday night,
as services were in progress in the
great tent, which was filled with
people, fearful gust of wind, with
torrents of rain, burst oyer it's white
folds. The great ropes snapped
like thread, and the tent, with all
its rigging and parapharnalia, set
tied down like a great bird on its
nest, covering lamps, pulpit and
congregation under its vast folds.
Men, women and children, who but
a moment before felt as secure from
the raging elements as if they were
under their own roofs, rose to their
feet, shrieking and running hither
and thither among the sea of plank
seats. The scene was indescribable.
The widest confusion reigned, with
terrified children clinging to their
flying parents, and hats, shaWls and
other light articles were blowing
about like chat and all we're swept
out into the storm and darkness.
Two sets of lamps, most of them
electric burners, were swept from
their fastenings and burst into one
wild glare that illuminated the
darkness for an instant and then
fell into the mass of dry straw that
covered every foot of the ground
under the tentl This caught fire
and would have consumed all if the
rain had not drenched every stitch
of canvass that covered it, Many
were unable to get out till the tent
had settled, and then ripped open
Ings into the tent through which
they escaped into the darkness,
rain and driving wind |
without.
The egress of the people was
greatly impeded by the seats and |
the tangled ropes. Fortunately, no
one, so far as now known, was seri-
ous!y injured; though many were
and bruised.
