Baptists In Politics.

MEssRs. EDlToRs: Tho Charleston
IVorld, Captain B. r. Tillman's organ,
charges tho Baptist College at Grccnvillc
with rowdyism in politics in Grccnvillc.
This charge is made against some of the
sons of tho best mon in tho State, and
boys or young men, who are there
studying for tho ministry. This charge,
DR.. G. Manly and tho students deny,
and /, for one, am inclined to believe Dir.
Manly and the students. Has it come to
tho point that our dcnominational col
lcges must be dragged into politics by
insnuations and violent charges? Can't
we lot our religious institutions remain
out of tho political caldron9 Tho
charge is a disgrace to the Baptists of
the State, and if politicians have no res
poet for tho religion of our Lord Jesus
Christ, wc ought to bo at least allowed
to respect our religion; and take the
false charge made against tho Baptists,
through our dcnominational college, as
an insult to tho Baptists of the State.
Not being satisfied with leaving the
Baptists almost entirely out of State
political Offices, we must, in addition, be
placed in the false position of rowdics.

Our Westminster Correspondence.

WESTMINSTER, S. c., June II, 1890.
DEAR COURIER: We have not had
much rain for several days, so tho farm
crs arc having q splendid timo for har-
vcsting oats and working their crops.
They arc making good use of 1t, too.
A severe wind storm, with some rain,
passed through this vicinity last Friday
evening. 1t assumed something like the
appearance and power of young cyclone
as it passed through Mr.. G. w. Kay's
bottom land. 1t travelled at fearful
rate, revolving round, rising and falling,
rs II passed ovor tho open space of bot,
tom land. The first object that camc il,
its course was Mr.. Erwin Pelfrcy's barn
and other out buildings, which it com.
pletoly demolished Rising from the
barn, it fell to tho ground near Mr.. Pei
froy's dwelling house. 1t thcn arose and
passed over tho house, almost throwing
1t off its pillars and leaving it in q falling
condition. It's course then led into an
old pino field, amongst heavy timber,
and up hill, consequently its revolving
motion was overcome, and the young
cyclone gave it up. But Mr.. Pelfrey's
buildings arc yet to be rebuilt
1t is very quiet about Westminste,
these clear days, as everybody is pushing
up with their work in order to 60 to
Walhalla on tho 10th, to the big cam
paign meeting. am glad that every
body is going, and second tho motion
that every one listens and that no one
ohoers, as wc need more truth and light
and less tumult on occasions of so much
Importance,
Westminster is still making some i'm
provcmcnts, both in tho way of now
buildings and also In repairing and boau,
tifying the old ones
The r. e d. II. r. Co. is also making
somo improvements by removing the
plank platform from tho track at tho
depot and filling it in Will, earth work.

Result of the Bone Grating Experiment.
May be Determined To-Day.
New York, Dec. 6.-Johnny Gethius
and the dog Charity, whose bones are
growing together in the Charity Hospi-
tai, Blackwell's Island, were in fine con-
dition this morning. Their temperature
was normal and both had good appe-
titles.
A great deal of curiosity has been ex-
pressed as to whether the dogs bone that
is being grated into Johnny's leg is as
large as the boys. A reporter asked o
gentleman who was present at the ope-
ration about this. He said that the bone
of the dogs foreleg was almost exactly
the same size as that of the larger bone
Of the boys leg just above the ankle,
which is the point of operation. He
further said he knew positively that
there was no truth in the story put in
circulation yesterday that the boy and
dog have been separated.
DIR. Phelps had given no intimation OF
his intention to complets the operation,
but he thought it most probable the
separation of the boy and dog would
take place this afternoon.

onor's Inquest is Being Continued.
CAMDEN, N. j., Dec. 6.-Considerable
excitement was caused here by the dis
covery of what may prove to be an
atrocious murder.
Information was received at the COR
oner's office that the nude body of a man
who had been strangled to death by
hanging had been buried in johnson
cemetery.
The coroner at once drove to the ceme-
terry and had the body exhumed. The
grave was shallow one, being little
more than foot and a half deep.
A few minutes work brought to light
a rough wooden box. When it was opened
the partly decomposed body of a man
was discovered.
The body was perfectly nude, and
around the neck was a stout hempen
rope about two feet long, which had cut
deeply into the flesh of the throat.
The body is supposed to be that OF
John Moore, colored, rough character
well known aroun d Merchantville and
vicinity. The authorities are investigat-
ing the case

THE TOWNSEND MYSTERY.
Many of the Witnesses Tell Contradic
tory Stories.

Many of the Witnesses Tell Contradic-
tory Stories
ENGLEwooD, N. J., Dec. 6.-The mystery
which surrounds the tragic death of
Lawyer John Townsend remains as ap-
parently unsolvable as ever, although
many witnesses were examined and all
the light possible was shed upon every
circumstance connected with the matter.
Coroner Hill has been all day engaged
in trying to get at the bottom facts, but
very little came out that has not already
been published.
The most prominent details of the in
quest were, firstly, the absence Of the
two nephews who lived in the same
house with Mr.. Townsend, who were cog
infant of the circumstances of his de-
parture from the house on the morning
of his death, who could, presumably, tes-
tify as to his clothing, his appearance
and his proposed destination. Their at
tendance and examination might ex-
plain the theory of the presence of a man
resembling Mr.. Townsend in the vicinity
of the scene of the tragedy at about the
same time it occurred. Secondly, the
omission Of the officials to extract from
the witnesses such exact details as to
time and as to the appearance of the
man who might have been either Mr..
Townsend or his double; thirdly, the
contradictory evidence Of the physician
who made the autopsy on the body and
Of the undertaken who had chargesof it,
and, fourthly, the boys Qsouis Nor
man's) departure from the statement he
had hitherto adhered to concerning his
observation of Mr. Townsend's mad leap.
1t is believed that all the important
witnesses, so far as they are known; have
been examined, and unless something
unlocked for turns up this afternoon, or
unless some important discoveries are
made outside of it, the case is likely to
remain mystery for all time.
