His Arrest for Cheating, Swindling,
and for Sending Forged kilograms.
Rafael Lilienthal is in trouble again. He
was before Justice Naughtin yesterday for
cheating and swindling, and for signing
another party's name without his knowl-
edge. He gave bond for $500, and was
released.
Young Lilienthal was a member Of the
late firm of Lllienthal 81 Son. The story
of his last wrong-doing, so far as it can be
learned, is something like this: His uncle,
Henry Bernard, Of New York, some time
ago Endorsed Lilienthals note for 81 800
Recently the uncle was asked
to indurse another note for
the same amount which Lilienthal said was
to renew the first The young man had
both notes discounted and his uncle is out

Company discounted the paper but it is

Of ONE CENT A WORD was established
about eighteen months ago for advertisements

has been we'll patronized and is now a popular

advantages offered by advertising, but they do
not because they do not, or think they do not,

TO TALK OF CHINA.
DR.. Young Allen to Lecture at Trinity
MEntl.nAL... El.,-r...L. NJ ILL

DR.. Young Allen to Lecture at Trinity
Methodist Church Tonight.
Rev. Young J. Allen, D. d., LII. d., will
lecture at Trinity church. on Telfair place,
tonight, on China, its history, customs,
laws, religions, and the present status and
future prospects of missionary work in the
great heather empire
DR.. Allen is native Of Burke
county, this State, being grad
uate of Emory College of the class of 1858
The next year he left for China. During
the war he was cut Off from his church, and
being thus thrown on his own resources
for n living, he became teacl er in
a Chinese government school. At the
same time he edited daily newspaper and
also a monthly religious journal. This work
he continued until a few years ago when he
took charge Of the Methodist mission in
China. His work as teacher brought him
into contact with the head authorities at
Pekin. He has translated into the written
language of China over ninety volumes of
school books ana histories from the English
He has doubtless done as much as
any other man 10 raise China
from its exclusiveness, and thereby brought
into play elements Of power which will go
far toward tearing away the veil that has
50 long hung over her, i'll appalling darkness
and superstition, as a nation.
DR.. Allen will tell something of
the mighty forces at work in the
commercial and political world
to bring China upon a happy plane with
the other nations. He is travelling extern
sively through the South, lecturing by
order Of his church, to the delight and
enlightenment of very large audiences that
gather to hear him. He spoke in Macon
last night, and will spend next Sabbath in
Charleston. The lecture tonight is free.
