HOTELS Since last Fall, there
have been repeated complaints
about the inadequate hotel facili-
ties of Brennan on the part of the
travelling public. For those accus-
toned to be up late, it is no uncom-
mon thing to see strangers cropping
their way through dark streets, look
ing for hotel, only to be turned off
for lack of room, when they found
it. There is nothing that can give
stranger a more unfavorable impress
sion of place, than to be unable to
find hotel facilities. He gets here
perhaps in the night, weary from
the fatigue of the journey and from
want of sleep. For hours he has
been consoling himself with the
soothing contemplation of soft
pillow, warm bed, and pleasant
dreams, at the end of his Journey.
He gets out, and finds his vision of
rest dissipated at the first door. He
seeks other places with no other eff
feet. Finally he is compelled to sit
down in hard chair and hug a cold
stove in the vain attempt to keep it
warm, in some lonely hotel Office, OF
he wanders forth to seek the COM
pany of monosyllabic policeman
on his solitary rounds. There is no
complaint to make against the mar
agement Of our hotels, The proprie-
tors doubtless do all they can with
their limited room. What we need
is an elegant edifce, large enough
to accommodate all who come, and
constructed with some regard to al
chitecural beauty. Such a hotel
would help Brennan in innumerable
ways 1t would give every visitor
to our town better impression of
it, and there is every reason to be
lieve that it would pay.

been decided progress since 1886, Misap-
prehensions show themselves all through
the printed notes OF the american, But
passion is evidently subsiding. In the
speeches Of DrS. Adams and Stricken, who
represented the Synod, there does not
| seem 10 have been one new idea. 1t was
the same old ideas in the same old way
| throughout There were some foolish re-
marks INDUCED in by few of the broth
rem. Nor should we expect II 10 be other
wise when 100 men are met in q parlia-
mentary body. The misapprehension
which apparently exercised powerful in
tluence upon the voto-l think n decisive
inhucnce-was that in sustaining DR..
Woodrow's complaint the assembly would
commit itself and the church 20 evolution
as one OF our doctrines. This misappre-
hension appears again and again. But the
truth il that no one asks the church 10 as
sumo any responsibility for evolution.
Prof. Woodrow has for than twenty-five
years taught in the seminary that II the
church were 90 enact rs any part
OF her creed or propagate in any way what
ever, even such proposition rs that the
earth is round, or the sun is larger than
the earth and IL the center around which
the earth and planets reyolye lac would
oppose Il with all his might. The church
must advocate nothing which is not re-
vcaled in Scripture. The utmost that she
could properly say would be: "As TO this
matter Of evolution, IL lies entirely out Of
my sphere. ! therefore leave it, rs ] do
politics, to the private judgments Of mon.
And IN Republicans and Democrats, high
tariff men and free traders are welcomed
on exactly the same terms To my common,
so also are the men who hold either side Of
qucstionsoi science, including evolutions."
The Amricdn thus represents DR.. Wood
rows feelings after the trial was over
think lac shows his usual prudence and
good sense therein.
IN. WOODROW IN GOOD SPIRITS
DR.. Woodrow left for Washington last
night, aud from there will proceed 10 the
University Of South Carolina, where he
will resume his duties. lie seemed in
good spirits after the vote, and said that
while, Of course, he thought the action Of
the assembly was wrong, taking every
thing into consideration, the case had ter
minated rs iavorably for him rs lac had
anticipated. lie had expected 10 receive
not less than twenty votes nor more than
thirty, 80 that his vote WIS larger than he
had hoped for. Many OF those, he said,
who had voted for him this time had on
all past occasions voted against him, and
lac took this as n hopeful sign that the OPP
position was lcsscning little. lie spoke
in approciativc language Of the perfect
courtesy and fairness with which the ns-
scmhly had treated him throughout,
according him everything that il was pos
sible for them TO do This had not been
always the case, aud that, too lac regarded
as an indication that the number oi those
was increasing who would incline iayoa-
bly, 10 the teachings which he felt so safely
assured were right and true. lie bad no
other plans, he said, beyond his work ut
the university, and the action of the rs.
sembly did not touch or affect him IN any
sense whatever. WA. T.. BoCGs.
