A citizen OF Chicago with time to
spare has carefully studied the reports
OF the many missionary societies, and
from them computed what it costs in
dollars and cents to convert individ-
uals to Christianity. According to the
figures it sometimes costs as much as

To make a Methodist of him costs
$50, a Baptist $50. Congregation.
alist S45, a Presbyterian $50, while
it costs as high as $500 to get him in
to the Episcopal Church, and $3.50 in.
to the Catholic church. In Africa it
costs $l4 to convert, in Italy $40, in
Spain $55, in the East Indies $50. A

George Potts, OF Head county, Ga,

officers would be glad to find him, and
he determined to circumvent them.
One morning several months ago his
bed was found empty, and pinned to
the wall was this note: .sWhen IL rede
this will be ded. Under the river will
be my home" His friends searched
for him. They found tracks leading
to the river, and then disappearing.
A mile down the stream they found
Potts coat caught by an overbanging
branch. They decided that he was
dead, and ms family mourned daily.
Three months later Potts appeared
and said that he WASH dead; but his
friends won't believe him. They say
that the original Potts is indeed dead;
and now Potts is trying to find proof
to show that lie is really alive.

A most horrify ing calamity has befall-

three-story brick building, was found to
be on fire, and was quickly all ablaze In
side were thirteen persons only two OF
whom escaped alive. DR.. III. A. Brooks,
the proprietor was pulled out OF the burn
ing building with his hair and beard
singed OF and otherwise badly burned,
leaving behind him his vile and four
children, who persisted. Pemberton Pierce.
representing the firm OF George III. Zeiger,
OF Philadelphia, jumped from the burning
building and was killed. D. M. Oldham OF
Dallas. representing the firm OF f. Cannon
d Go. Of Galveston, escaped badly singed.
The mystery about the thing is that so
many should have persisted when none
were higher up than the second story,
and there We're galleries and exile on
both sides OF the building occupied
to call or scream all dying without a
cry for help. though a great crowd quickly
gathered, and exhausted every effort to
afford a rescue. The remains of several
have been recovered from the ruins, but
they are unrecognizable. A great pail
rests over Rockdale, and every business
place is closed. Mr.. Pierce is the only nom
resident victim. The pecuniary loss is
about SIS. 600.

MoNAN's RIGHTS.

WOMAN S RIGHTS.
The chairman announced that the secre
tary would read a petition for the considera-
ton of the convention. The paper proved
to be request from the woman's conven-
ton recently held in Washington, sta5ing
that two of its members had been appointed
to make short talk to the convention on
behalf of the women of America This re-
quest was accompanied by promise thai
It it were granted by the convention the
representation of the Woman's organization
would only occupy the attention Of the con-
Tention for ten minutes. The communities
ton was signed by Virginia l. Miner and E.
A. Merriweather. J. J. O'Donohue of New
Fork moved that the women be heard and it
vas agreed to.
Mrs. .Merriweather then addressed the con-
Tention as follows:
Gentlemen of the Democratic convention:
Time ard again have the women OF This
country appeared before your legislative
bodies and your great political conventions
asking THAI the practice OF this government
De made to conform TO its principles. The
basic principle, the very foundations stones
on which this government rests, are equal
rights. yet now here in all this broad land
do equal rights prevail? On the one side
we have privileged, a governing class;
On the other side a subjected. a governed
class. One half of the people of this so-called
republic yet live in precisely the same polit-
zeal bondage our fore mouhers lived in under
the monarchs OF England, before the colonies
rebelled ana seeded from the British empire
Our forefathers called themselves slaves be-
cause OF such Impressions If it were slavery
Tor them, how is it not slavery for us9
have been deputed by the Missouri Woman's
Suffrage society to come before you and ask
inst riy,<,i yo(or n
TO pledge your party to right these greab
wrongs by procuring such an amendment TO
the constitution as will give to woman equal
civil and political rights with men, in
Guiding the right preservative of
oil rights the right of suffrage
The Republican party claims and wears a
crown Of glory for giving freedom to four
millions OF negro slaves How much more
| glorious crown will that party win and
wear That shall achieve the freedom of the
educated Christian women of this country?
You may have the opportunity to become
the champion of freedom for the whole, IN
stead OF half the people. A declaration so
noble, SO grand, coming from this great
body OF Democratic men, will send thrill
/ through humanity's great heart, such as it
never felt since time began, ana will carry
the memory OF this convention to the very
| end OF time itself.
Mrs. Merriweather then read series
| OF resolutions on woman's rights, which
she would like to see adopted by the conven-
| ton.
Considerable disorder prevailed during
the delivery OF Mrs. Merriweathers re-
marks, and the chair was Obliged to re-
mind the delegates OF their discourtesy.
