The Baptist State Convention has
been in session at Wilmington the
past week, and it is said to be gath
ering distinguished for its intelligence
and impressive personnel. The princi-
pal matters under discussion, are as
follows:
Wake Forest College and the en-
largement of its usefulness. Three
new professors have recently been
added to its faculty, representing two
of the leading universities of the
world. The new laboratory is near
ing completion and will cost about ten
thousand dollars, thus offering facili-
ties for scientific instruction which
will increase largely the capabilities
of this admirable institution. The re-
cent and continual expansion of the
curriculum and the steady improve
ment in all OF the steady improve
ment in all of the several departments
has and will continue to bring 3 grow
ing patronage.
The matter which will probably
command the attention of the Con-
vention will be the endowment of the
students Aid Association, and for
which purpose it is asked that $780,
900 be raised. 1t is the aim of the
advocates of this feature to supply
from this fund $3.50 annually to each
student desiring an education and IN
able to meet the necessary expenses.
Six per cent interest is charged, with
good security. This is new depar-
ture and will tend largely to increase
the attendance at Wake Forest.
The discussions of State missions
will come up for consideration, like
wise the Sunday School work and the
Baptist Orphanage, which is located
at Townsville, will come in for a
generous share of del1beration and
debate. This is new and favo rite
scheme Of the Baptists and which will
tend to accomplish much good. Forty
five pupils are in attendance, there
are five buildings completed and two
more nearly finished and there is a
liberal fund for its maintenance.
From advance sheets of the report,
we CLEAN the following interesting
statistics, showing the strength of the
churches, their membership, &C., in
this convention: "Last year 80 as
sociations co-operated with this con-
vention this year 80 did so. The
new churches organized during the
year numbered 80, raising the total to
9S7. There are in the Western Bap.
fist Convention (west of the Blue
Ridge 258 churches: in the Wac
camaw Association IS, and of colored
Baptists, 979. So the grand total of
missionary Baptist churches in North
Carolina is 2,237.
"This convention has SO, $40 mem
bers; the Western, 20,450; the Wac
camaw Gin North Carolina), 1919;
the colored 6aptists 113,020, making
a grand total of 231, 222 missionary
Baptists in the State. Besides these,
there are $3.50 anti-missionary Bap-
fists, 10000 Disciples and 6,516 Free
Will Baptists."
The Baptists of North Carolina are
engaged in good cause and their
vigorous and salutary efforts are being
rewarded with many deserved bless
ings.

Would Not He InteryIewed.

WORCESTER, MASS, December L.
The announcement from Providence
this evening that doc" Wilson had
lifted the veil from the great Moen
mystery caused tremendous sensa.
ton. The bulletin boards were sur
rounded far into the night by crowds.
The millionaire manufacturer was at
prayer meeting when the announce
ment reached this city, and the re-
porteTs gathered at the door OF the
Union Church to waylay him when
he came forth. One OF them showed
Mr.. Moen a copy Of Providence
paper containing the story and pro-
ceeded to interview him on the
subject, but he would say moth
ing aside kfrom the statement
that "Doc's" story was lie.
With difficulty he escaped the
reporters and proceeded to his resi-
dence. A reporter called upon him
there at 8 O'Clock. His son Phil came
to the door with him. He was ss cool
and collected as though he had been
called to the door on a matter OF busi-
ness Of the simplest kind. When
asked about the statement made by
Wilson today that he was his son, Mr..
Moen said: ut is a lie, downright
lie." He then said; "My counsel has
advised me not to talk with any Of the
newspaper men on the subject, 80 you
will excuse me il l decline to be inter
viewed. But you can see that be is
nearing the end of his rope. Just see
how desperate the man is, getting up
such story as that" Mr.. Moen de-
clined to state ANYTHING further.

THE "NORrHWESTERN MILLER
Reports the Condition of the Mills
Much Improved.

MINNEAPoLIs, MINI, December L.
The NOrthDestern Miller says: After
Wednesday of last week the mills had
no further trouble from log jams, but the
water power was far from satisfactory
for most Of them. Few got out -four
without steam. The output was 109,-
$50 barrels, averaging 1890 barrels
daily, against $3.50 barrels the pre-
ceding week, and 1880 barrels the
corresponding time in 1885. This
week the power is poor, but by the
use OF steam the product will overrun
100000 barrels. Eighteen mills are
running, six partly or wholly, by
steam. Those depending on water
power were not able to get
out over half the usual output.
They have asked for an arrange
ment by which water will be more
equally divided. A meeting will be
held tomorrow afternoon to form a
pool to regulate the operations OF the
mills. The water power company has
an options restraining most mills to
sixteen hours per day, and have noti-
fad them that this will be done unless
some other plan be adopted. There
is brisk demand for wheat at the ad-
vance. The direct exports last week
we're Al 900 barrels. Receipts for the
week-Wheat, l, l04, 400 bu. Shipments
449,350 bu; -four, 1O4,6S4

pany has been increased to 81 ,000, 900
The proposition of the Alabams
and Tennessee Company TO build
three furnaces in eighteen, twenty
four and thirty months respectively
was today accepted by the Sheffield
Company.
A proposition to extend the Louis.
vile and Nashville railroad, by way
OF Florence, to She effield was received,
and a committee appointed to confer
with the president of that company
on the 10th of December, at Nashville.
Judge Tompkins, Of Atlanta, thinks
that the Louisville and Nashville road
will be built into Sheffield.
Another proposition to build a
four mile loop from the Memphis and
Charleston railroad was d scusssd at
the meeting today, and the whole
matter referred to the Board OF Di-
rectors of the Sheffield Company.
There 10 little doubt that the two
propositions will be ultimately agreed
upon by the several corporations con-
eerned.
Fully 100000 worth of Sheffield lots
were sold last night and today.
Two hundred and forty dollars was
refused for stock tonight.

Except for the modest military escort.
Governor Seay's inauguration was
about as Jeffersonian as could be. A
short speech by Ex-Governor O'Neal,
Governor Seay's inaugural address
and the administration of the oath by
Chief Justice Stone, were all there
was OF it. The speech of the new
Governor is universally commended
for force and finish, but more than
anything else for bold and positive
treatment OF the live issues. The Gov
ernor declared himself in favor of
road tax to be authorized by the con-
stitution, OF enlargement of legal
rights OF married women, of the per-
petuation of the present system of
massing convicts, of a change from
the fee system to the salary system in
paying solicitors, of liberal measures
on the part OF theINational Govern.
ment in aid of education. Special
emphasis was laid on the last men
toned matter. The Governor thought
the State appropriation for the Con-
federate monument ought to wait un-
til the claims of manned soldiers
should be satisfied.

CAMPBELL DIVORCE CASE.
Conclusion OF Miss Baer's Evidence.

LONDON, December AFTER recess
the Judge sent for the young woman
Miss Baer, who came in complaining
OF faintness. Resuming her place,
she said Lady Campbell possessed a
peculiar door key; it had tongue on
both ends. Witness imagined one end
was for the lock ON her own house
door, and the other for that of the
Duke of Marlborough's residence. Wit
ness said Lady Campbell used prevent
i've medicines. She got sick every
time she used them, but witness did
not infer from this that her mistresswas
habitually doing wrong, Once, whils
brushing Lady Collins hair in her
room at Leigh Court some one tried
the door Of the room, then went away.
When all were leaving Leigh Court,
Artist Fitz Henry, witness raid, spoke
to her saying Lady Colin had not
taken notice OF him as she had of so
many other gentlemen, but he should
be able 10 make up for lost time as he
was going to Paris with her. When
he said this Fitz Henry had bouquet
for Lady Colin. Witness denied hav.
ing sent the letter to Lady Colin
menacing her with exposure. Ad-
iournment taken.
