A Historical Reception.

The Historical Society of Southern
California will give reception to DR..
Lyman @. Draper this evening in the
old city hall. General John Mansfield
will deliver the address of welcome. DR..
Draper was corresponding secretary of
the Wisconsin State Historical Society
for thirty-three years, and built the 60
ciety up from nothing to third in i'm
portance in the United States. His visit
to the Pacific Coast is for the especial
purpose of interviewing the descendants
OF Daniel Boone, whose biography he is
writing. The meeting is public, and it
is expected that large number of Wis
consin people will attend.

IN SAN FRANCISCO.

The ssRural CaI1fOrnianD to the
FOre-Platt's Hall Secured.
Citrus fairs and exhibitions seem to
be the general order of the day, not
only under the auspices Of the State, but
every section, during the past year, that
grows citrus fruits to any extent has had
it's exhibition, and placed before admir-.
ing crowds the luscious golden spheres,
which of late years have rechristened
California the Golden State. Not only
have these displays been made in the
immediate sections where the fruit is
grown to perfection, but the fruit has,
in many cases, been sent to distant cities
for the same purpose, notably the ex-
hibit of San Bernardino county, now in
New York, and the exhibit of Placer
county at Platt's hall, San Francisco.
Following the suggestion of the San
Francisco Chronicle, that nothing could
possibly be of more benefit to Southern
California than to place on exhibi ton in
San Francisco fine line of the various
varieties of oranges and lemons grown
to perfection in this section of the Sta 9,
the Rural Californian has secured,
through the courtesy of Mr.. Clarence ).
Wetmore, of the State Viticultural Com
mission, the use of Platt's hall, and all
the furniture and appurtenances ready
for placing and arranging the fruit in a
fine series of stars, harps, tripods, pyra-
mids, ETC., etc., we'll calculated to show
the same off to the most advantage.
| The only expenses that the growers
would incur in placing an exhibit of the
citrus fruits of this section in San Fran
cisco would be for man to look after,
and take charge of the exhibit, and also
the incidental expenses of gas, station
cry, etc., but these the Rural Californian
will freely pay, if the fruit-growers ofthe
different sections will combine and place
on exhibition display of the fruits
grown in the different localities, after the
State citrus fair adjourns in Los Angeles.
The benefit to be derived from an ex-
hibition of this kind in the leading city
west of the Rocky mountains is not to be
overestimated; San Francisco being the
commercial headquarters of a vast area
of country, always has within her board
ers large floating population-in fact
strangers from the four quarters of the
globe, seeking openings, and looking fol
lands and business opportunities. The
superior advantages of our soil and eli
mate for the cultivation of citrus fruits
are nowhere to be equaled on the foot
stool, and it must be obvious to all that
the opportunity for displaying our fruits
has never been 80 favorable.

The General Association Of Hen
tdcky Baptists met at Owensbdi,
Thursday with 1872 messengers pres
ent and a large number of visitors
DIR. j. S. Coleman was elected mod
orator; T. G. Bell and A. G. Dawson
assistant moderators; b W.D. Seeloy,
secretary sand WI. L. Cox, assistant
secretary.
The routine business of the Assoc
ciotion occupied the first two days
and much discussion was indulged in.
Extracts from the proceedings hay
ing local interest are here given,
taken from the Messenger:
"The Christian experience of Rev.
j. G. Durham, of Bowling Green, the
oldest ordained minister, and Of Rev.
John o. Rust, the youngest minister,
were listened to with great interest.
Rev. Mr.. Durham was converted Feb
ruary IL, 1888, and had seen con-
tinuous service in the ministry for
more than fifty years. Rev. Mr..
Rust was ordained o year ago. His
experience asa Christian and preacher
was related in style charming in its
simple eloquencc and touching in its
record of trials, temptations and final
triumphs.
On motion of DR.. j. s. Coleman it
was ordered that an obituary notice
OF DR.. j. w. Rust, late president of
Bethel Female College, be prepared
and inserted among the obituaries of
deceased ministers of the association.
Dr. Rust was not minister, but had
been SO closely connected with the
work of the ministry during his long
and useful life that it was deemed
appropriate. The obituary is an
eloquent tribute to his memory and
recites that for fifty-three years he
stood man among men as a christ
ian teacher, a wise counsellor and q
vigorous journalist. His loss is deep
ly deplored by the association"
Rev. G. III. Nash was accorded the
prominence in the Association to which
his talents entitle him. He was made
chairman of the important standing
committees, on Home Missions and
Religious Periodicals and was given
for discussion at the next meeting the
theme "What is the Weakness of the
Pulpit of the Dayi" On Sunday at
II a, m. he preached at the Walnut
Street Baptist church,
Rev. Jno. d, Jordan, tho gifted
young pastor of the Puducah church,
and clerk Of the Little River Associ-
alton, preached at the Christian church
Sunday morning.
Inc inquirer pays this handsome
compliment to Mr. Rust:
"Rev. John o. Rust, though the
youngest member of the Association,
has but few equals as speaker. He
has splendid delivery
The Hopkinsville representatives
present were Rev. G, H, Nash, Rev. ].
o. Rust, Maj. J.. o. Ferrell and Messrs.
Bailey Waller and j. H. Anderson.
They were expected to return last
night or this morning.

craft dclusibh are said TO have been

Of county records II would BIO hardly
possible to mention any one episode set
forth in the history OF New England
that possesses so strange fascination
as belong to the rise and decline a that
fearful excitement in Salem--or, more
accurately speaking, in what is now
Danvers Center-which caused nineteen
innocent people to be put TO death under
sentence for an impossible crime. The
remarkable story Of newly-discovered
documents pertaining to the evil days
of 1892 will awaken, for time,
particular public interest in the
whole subject There is one fact, not
wholly unknown, but generally unno-
tced. that bears weightily on the still
thooted question how far the honor Of
our Puritan ancestry Is affected by that
tragic episode. 1t is that when the de-
fusion had spent its force an attempt
was made out of the scanty public treas
ury OF those days to recompense tho
surviving victims, as far as money could
do so, for the wrong done them. There
Is said to have boon found list Of those
who were In the prison when the tide OF
public sentiment turned toward better
things, together with a record OF sums
ranging from gao to ESQ paid the re-
leased captiyes or to the dependent rel
atives OF those who had persisted on the
gibbet. This indicates what authentic
history confirms, that our forefathers in
the Massachusetts Bay colony we're so
FAR from being obdnrate, persistent and
heartless in their error, that they soon
repented and sought how they might
atone for it. In the same connection
must always be taken another fact If
we would do even-handed Justice to the
memory Of the dead. Belief In witch
craft was practically universal in the
seventeenth century throughout the civ
ilized world, and had been for l.any
generations, Just two hundred years
before the outbreak in Salem Papal
bull had kindled inquisitorial fires In
Germany for the dek.uction OF sorcer-
ers, and successive bulls increased the
popular frenzy; so that many hundreds
OF helpless victims were put to death,
often by means of cruel tortures, during
a comparatively few years. But no sect
or section OF the Christian world was ex-
empt and Protestant England, under
Elizabeth, James l., and Charles l., was
the scene Of cruel prosecutions for this
cause. Historians tell vs. that fully
three thousand people are believed to
have persisted under charge Of witch
craft during the period OF the Long
Parliament; that is to say, at the very
time when the seeds OF civil and relig-
ieus liberty were being planted In old
England and New England. Boston Ad

We are glad to see that the Courier
journal is disposed to correct false
reports sent out from this comfy
about the unsatisfactory workings Of
the registration law. In the issue Of
Saturday it says:
"Hopkinsville is not disappointed
over the operation of the new regis
tration law, as some correspondents
have reported, unless Mr.. Charlie
Msaoham, who is a proverbially ac-
curate newspaper man, is mistaken in
his summing up of tho situation"

Hon. w. w. Dickerson was elected
Saturday by the usual Democratic
majority to succeed Mr., Carlisle in
the Sixth Kentucky district. He will
hardly take his seat before the fight
for the full term will begin. Col.
Berry and Theodore Hallam will
probably both be candidates again for
the nomination.

ing Of the close-fsted and miserly WAYS
OF that prince OF inventors, Edison.
The following little incident which
came under the observation of the
writer serves to illustrate the fact that
the heart OF the great genius Is in the
right place, and that he is not penurious
upon al occasions. IL was some time
a6n when Edison was IN Boston, and
no, together with several other gentle
men who are identified with important
electrical inventions, were conyersina
eagerly upon some new idea or appll-
snce, standing at the same time In front
OF the cigar case at the Court square
side OF Young's Hotel. A little news
boy had been captured by one Of the
hotel attendants while trying to sell his
papers in the place, and was being
hustled out by the ear.
Edison caught sight OF the forlorn lit
tie kid" and signing to the porter who
held him to Jet him go, called the yeDd-

"Plcase buy paper, mister" piped
the boy In mournful tone.
"Of course I'll buy paper" said the
great inventor, with smile, ss he pat.
ted the boy on the head, and selecting q
paper from the lot he handed the boy o
silver dollar, saying: "Never mind any
change; but keep persevering, my little
man, and you'll come out all right In the
ond." Then, as the child thanked him
and scampered of with radiant faceS
he turned to the gentleman with whom
he had been talking and said, feelingly;
