The old Savannah River Association

MISSIONS. There We're not over seventy
nVe oelegates present, representing ire
thlrty-nve churches, but they were
earnest Christian workers. The letters
from the different churches showed that
tne accessions TO the churches were large.
A glorious work has been done notWlth-
standing the hard times and poverty OF
ner people, and the mother of associations

occupied before the war.
For the past few days the woods all
around Oakley have been on tire, with
nlgn winds to help them on, and not
crop OF water TO aid in stopping them. AT
I. w. Heyward's appahoola plantation
IRE from the woods destroyed c0nsld-
cradle amount of fencing, and burned up
into the quarters between the negro
houses before it was stopped. While that
was oeing fought TO save fencing and the
settlement the dwelling house on his PIN
lico plantation narrowly escaped destruc-
ton from large fire from a different
quarter. Some more fencing at Wappa-
hoola went under, and hands were busily
engaged all day in securing the remain
der OF the fencing from destruction. An
other large IRE, between Oakley and
Cooper river, has swept the woods and
came near destroying dwelling and out
buildings of colored man. besides en-
dangering others. Large fires are also
burning between Oakley and Back
Kun, endangering another settlement
or colored people. Thursday, about one
and one-half miles north of this, a colored
woman carelessly set fire to a trash pile.
Inc tre got away and destroyed consid-
cradle fencing in quite large settlement

demonstrated with regarding her care

'didn't care a -" and proceeded to
KNOCK out" one OF the Injured parties
who complained. The eastern sky Thurs
day was lit up with the rudy glare of a
very large fire on the other side OF Cooper
river, and it would not be at all surpris-
ing to hear not only of fences destroyed,
but of negro settlements also.

Tuesday q child OF celored woman by
the name of Jenkins, living on Forsyth
street, between Hawk and First. in La
cemetery, which belongs to +. f. LEngle.
The woman, who had recently separated
from her husband. was in destitute cir
cumstances, and in her grief and despair
applied to William Preston, a eolored
employe under Capt. Murphy, at the
freight depot OF the Savannah, Florida
aud Western railway. Preston,
being a kind hearted man, although
not in any way interested in the
woman, told her that he would procure her
the coffin and pay the necessary expense
of laying the little one out, and did SO,
ordering the coffin from j. Ramsey Dey.
On the day following, Richard Sheppard,
the colored sexton OF the cemetery, called
on Preston and presented him with bill
OF burying the child. Preston declined
paying it, saying that he expected to pay
Mr.. Dey his bill, and thought be had done
all that he could afford. Late Thurs
day night tina woman came to Pres
toms house crying bitterly, and say
ing that the body OF her child had been
dug up and placed in her doorway. On
investigation it was found that Sheppard
had disinterred the body and had carried
1t to the front gate OF j. e. Scott's house
on Forsyth street and left it on the side
walk, where 1t remained in view Of a
number of startled passers by until taken
into the house by an officer. Sheppard,
after receiving a subscription raised by
the neignbors, reinterred the remains.

CLEVELAND AS A FISHERMAN.


Buffalo Man Resents the Statement that
the President Is Successful Angler.
.;peciaI TO the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, July 10.-'I notice." said a
Buffalo man, who is visiting in Washington,
shat all the papers take particular delight in
cracking up Grover Cleveland as fisherman.
Those correspondents who visited Deer Park
sent out wonderful accounts Of the enormous
strings Of trout which Grover caught. He al
ways had a few more than anyone else and, if 1
remember rightly, the smallest of them were
from an inch and half to two inches longer
than any fish caught by any other person in the
party. 1t was the same way when he was up in
Woodmont, last year, and if he goes down the
rtvef now SCOTS yacht the papers will tell
about his wonderful luck in catching the fish of
the lower Potomac. Now it strikes me as some
what remarkable that just because man has
been elected President of the United States he
should entirely change himself in all respects
"What do you meant asked your correspond

sWell, I mean that whom Grove Cleveland

to his name and when he lived in Buffalo and
member of the Oakfeld Club, he was the
poorest fisherman in the lot, and, l tell you,

JIM BENEFITS EDITORIALS.
The Opinion Expressed of Them by His
Managing Editor, Who Didn't Know.

Managing Editor, Who Didn't Know.
New York Letter to Boston Herald.
Once during the career of young De Nyse he
was made managing editor Of the Telegram, and
he was informed by Dir Bennett that the edi-
torials for the paper would be furnished from
day to day by Mr.. Levein, who occupies a posi-
ton on the Herald staff. These editorials used
to come in written in a number of different
hands. and marked "Must' by Levein De Nyse
became dissatisfied with them and imagined that
they were hurting the paper very much. So one
day he called on the proprietor. Said he: Mr.
Bennett, you have made me the managing editor
of the Telegram, and l am trying my best to
push the paper to success. But this man Levein
is hampering me very much"
How SOL" questioned Mr.. Bennett looking up
with some surprise.
''Well don't want to interfere with any man
who is earning his bread and butter, but, at the
same time, Levein sends me a lot of editorials
every day that not written by himself aud
suppose he is getting his friends to do the work
for him. shouldn't object to that if the edito
rails were good, but they are simply Internally
bad. There is one man, in particular, who turns
in about the worst rot ever saw in newspaper.
| haven't the fainteSt notion who he is, but the
stuff he sends through Levein is laughed at all
over the office, and is trivial that it just about
destroys the effect of any work do IN the news
department. Here is some of the manuscript
Mr.. Bennett t9ok up slip of paper and looked
at it for moment. Then he said: $50 you don't
think this writer ought to be allowed to put his
stuff in printr
ssNo" responded De Nyse. frankly DO not
It is quite evident that this particular man is a
ID fool"
"Quite possibly" said Mr.. Bennett. very
quietly II wrote those editorials myself
De Nyse fell back in his chair with gasp.
His hair fairly stood on end. He started to make
some sort of an explanation, but Bennett cut
him short.
None of that" exclaimed the proprietor of
the Herald-''none Of that | thought those
editorials were pretty good; but, as they do not
seem to impress other people in the same light
shall never write another. Good-day."
NJ De Nyse returned to his post considerably
saddened. but he never had any further editori-

WAS AND THE CLERKS.

Belief that tho Postal Employees Committee
win Be Given Cool Reception.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, July 10.-In the opinion of
some officers in the Postoffica Department who
are closely related to the Postmaster general
the postal clerks at Indianapolis. who have or
ganized to make demand for some kind of an
assurance that they will be retained in their po-
stions. will recsivs very little satisfaction from
DIR. Villas. For six months or more the Post
ster-general has realized, it is stated that
there was being organized a movement to COM
psi him. in his opinion. to retain railway mail
employees whether he desired to do so or not. and
with the belief that he is to be beycotted or
forced he intends to deal with them with an
iron nand. It is stated further, that arrange
ments have been in progress at the Postoffice
Department for SONS time to meet any emery
ency which may arise by general strike of
railway mail clerks. 1t may be that the Post
master general will make some kind of an an
swer which will appear satisfactory, if the or
ganization of clerks now In the service demands
an answer, to the request for an assurance of
retention, but whatever Is given by the Post
master-general in this direction will be given
with a very large grain of salt He is the stern
est man in the Cabinet. and Is averse to doing
anything which could be construed as having
arisen out Of forced circumstances. and it is
likely that the postal clerks will remain in a
state of CONSERVATION
