A Great African Missionary.

From the London Star
The Rev. Thomas Wakefield, president
Of the General Assembly OF tho United
Methodist Free Churches, is one OF the
most distinguished and successful mis-
sionaries Of tho present day. Judging
from outward appearances, there Is little
about him that suggests the remarkable.
About sixty years OF age, he is OF medium
hight, with a thick-set, well developed
frame. His hair is Of grayish tinge and
but sparsely covers massive and well
formed head, while his face is bronzed
with the exposure OF q quarter OF CEN
fury TO the rays OF an East African sun.
Mr.. Wakeiield's manner is pleasant and
hearty, and those who are favored with
passing acquaintance soon discover that
generosity 10 a leading trait in his character.
Twenty-six summers have passed since
Mr.. Wakefield, at that time young and
vigorous minister In the Free Church, left
his circuit with the determination tospend
the best years OF hisliie in Eastern Africa.
The Free Church had resolved TO begin
missionary enterprises in that portion of
the Dark Continent, and Mr.. Wakefield
was chosen rs the man 10 inaugurate them.
Together with DIR. krapi, a well known
German missionary, and Others, he de-
parted in 1862 for Eastern Africa. Through
his fundamentally a mission station was
started at Mombasa, and since that time
the mission work has gone on until now that
corner Of Africa Is dotted with mission
stations. Mr.. Wakeield's first great diff
iiculty was, OF course, with tho language.
A quarter OF a century ago II was not re-
duccd To writing and on Mr.. Wakefcld's
arriving there, he ~ once faced the task,
aud, notwithstanding the many difficulties
10 be surmountcd, succeeded In reducing
the language in the desired manner. This
alone was a great work, aud many travel
ers and missionaries have since had cause
10 be thankful that the language on that
portion OF Africa could be made intelli-
giblc 20 them.
Twenty-six ycars' residence in tropical
climate have not been spent without many
dangers, and Of those the president OF the
Free Churches has experienced bis fair
share. Notwithstanding the fact that he
was once nearly poisoned by the natives
aud other narrow escapes, Mr.. Wakefield
is still In good health and capable Of much
hard work, either in the missionary or
other fields Of labor. During his residence
In Africa hc has met many distinguished
travellers. Mr.. III. NJ. Stanley, about
whose fate and thai OF his expedition nearly
the whole civilized world Is concerned,
was entertained by him, and tho late Mrs.
Bar,tclol was also among the number lac
met Mr. Wakefield has been staying at
Scarborough, and during his visit TO this
fashionable watering place be paid high
tribute 10 the courage aud other high quail
tiles Of tho unfortunate Major. The late
Bishop Huntington was u warm friend OF
Mr.. Wakcilcld'A, and just short time
prior 10 his murder stayed NJ his residence
IN Bibc, where the late Bishop met the
Row. and Mis-. llough,on, two missionaries
who also wore spared 10 death by the
Nasal.

GLADSTONE BADLY TREATED.
Il Seems that English Politics Arc
Quite as Bad ss American.

LONDON, Nov. l0.-Mr. and Mrs. Glad
stone made the journey from birmingham
TO Wolverhampton in carriage drawn by
four horses. They were heartily cheered
along tho route. On arriving at Wolver-
hampton Mr.. Gladstone proceeded to the
drill hall where he received number OF
addresses. In replying he was repeatedly
interrupted, tho disorder finally culminat-
ing in an uproar that compelled
him to abruptly close his remarks
Great confusion followed, the crowd
making rush and demolishing the
benches that separated the members OF
the press from the public. The police
guarded the private door by which Mr..
Gladstone left tho hall. The ex-Premier
proceeded TO the railway station, tho plat
form Of which was closely guarded, and
started for Oxford. At Snowfall the crowd
that gathered groaned and hootcd. At
bennington former Mayor OF the town
welcomed Mr. Gladstone aud his wife pre-
scented Mrs Gladstone with boquct. At
Panbury they received similar welcome.
At Oxford tho crowd which was COM
posed largely Of ungraduates, groancd and
hooted Mr.. Gladstone, and he was driven
10 the residence Of Warden keblo.

WEST VIRGINIA.
The state ~ Nun in Doubt-wi ison
(Dcmocrat) IN Probably Elected.

WmELISG, w. Va, Nov. l0.-Thc fig
urcs Of the two committees are getting
very close together in this State. The
Chairman Of the Democratic Committee
comedies less than 200 Democratic major
ity ON Fleming the Democratic candidate
for Governor. and thinks that Hubbard,
the Republican candidate Tor Attorney.
General, may be elected.
The Republican Committee claim from
300 10 300 majority ON Governor, and
thinks the Presidential ticket has also
pulled through. There are still twelve
counties either impcriccty or not at all
heard from, aud upon these, and possible
corrections in the others, depends the 10.
suit The chances seem 10 bo with the
Republicans, especially for Governor. Tho
Democratic committee have reduced their
estimates Of SOL this morning Ia less than
200 this evening Two Republicans have
been elected in the First and Fourth Con-
grc.sional Districts, and McGinnis (Repub-
lican) is probably elected In the Third.
There is more uncertainty among Rcpub-
liCans In regard 10 the Second. The latest
ncws from that district indicates the ~.
election OF Wilson DomocaJ 10y sixty
majority. Ills majority Ia 1891 was ,52J,
anu two years ago ninety.

Advertisement and Criticism.

From the New York Mirror.
81 advertise in the newspapers for the
purpose Of presenting TO the eyes Of thea
ter-goers the current attraction at my
house," said Manager Frohman. ~ can
not object to any just or dignifed criti-
cism which the newspaper critic may
choose TO write Of the performance. l do
not connect the two departments. / do
not think that the advertising, therefore,
subsidies criticism. The latter Is dis
tinct function which l encourage rather
than censure."
Manager Mart w. Hanley was busy pay
ing of the salaries OF Mr.. Harrigans COM
pany when the representative entered the
Office Of the Park, but he spoke willingly.
81 believe" he said, 'in every manager
using his own judgment with regard to
advertising. That Is what we do here. I
do not believe, though, in paying any
newspaper, daily or weekly, an amount
OF money-no matter how large or how
small-to abuse me. No manager is justi-
fed in doing that But honest criticism /
believe in, and am only too happy 10 say
that have always been very fortunate in
all my dealings with the press, not only in
thiscity, but throughout America. Among
newspaper men find my warmestfriends."
Manager Harry Miner was seen at the
Peoples Theater, making preparations
with ii. @. Jarrett for n European trip.
81 think" said Mr.. Miner, that the
critic ON newspaper has perfect right to
say Just what he thinks Of any play or
star, because that Is his opinion, and 10
express that opinion he is sent there.
Otherwise every star and play would get
no end Of commentator simply because
il would be bought. - Certainlyif I've
got bad thing ! don't want the
newspaper critics TO give INC good no.
tice. II he does, when had the luck to
get good thing and receive favorable
criticism for II, the confding public would
not believe that il was coed, and | would
be a loser In the end. think that II IL
we're for the notices alone that put in an
advertisement. II would pay me TO take IL
out and send down favorable criticisms in
stead, paying for them at so much per
line as reading notices with the inevitable
adv ut the end. l have often
proGted much by the advice Of the critics,
and value the opinions Of those Of this
city very highly"
Manager Frank Il. Murtha was found TO
have very emphatic opinions
"As far a. / am concerned" he Raid, 81
have never yet asked a newspaper man
for favorable criticism. put my adycr-
tisomcnis In the papers for the public to
see what's being played at my theater,

night is as follows: New cases, ten; deaths,
none. Calls for relief are increasing, and
means OF a1'orling II decreasing.
The feeling OF those engaged in

Gainesville, with little of past experience,
sees the fever just becoming epidemic, and
unless cold weather intervenes must see
list OF victims, as must other places where
the fever has recently spread. The weather
now gives little hope OF relief.
