The smallest of all the States,

lation per square mile, or 1884
persons. The figures of the last
census show that if the whole
Union were as densely populated
it would contain 945, 766, 800 inhabi-

develop swimming classes, and
from these expert swimmers are

Steamers crossing the Atlantic
in five days would be apt to secure
the portion of a very profitable
passenger traffic. A recent esti-
mate of the expenditure of Amer
lean tourists placed the number at
10000, their passages out and
home at 5000 apiece, and their ex-
penditures on the other side at
$500 apiece, a total of 500, 100000.
1t has since been claimed that the
number of tourists should be esti-
mated at 100000, the average ex
pendture being $1,000 head, a
total of 100000 900.
The total value of imports into

eleven months of the last fiscal

with $713,875, 467 for the CORES

year, an increase of $57 ,579,735.
The merchandise admitted free of
duty amounted to 1927 ,342, 749,

The exports of merchandise for the

S816,2l7,297, against $793, 221,564
for the corresponding period of
the previous year, an increase of
S22, 1895, 1913. The statistics for the
whole year will prove intere sting
as showing the effect of the new

note that the trade, instead of
languishing is, constantly increas-
ing.
The American oil wells have al

chief curioslties in this country of

eclipsed by a well owned by the
caspian Society, which begun to

With some intermission, kept up to

poNpy WOODS.
Primitive Baptist Association in Session
Near Guthrie.

The Primitive Baptist Association
met to-day at Brakes Pond church,
near Guthrie, and will he in session
three days. The place is more famil-
iarly known as Pondy Woods church,
and is one of the oldest churches in
this country. lis history is quite in
teresting, and the meeting now in
session will be of interest to young
people who know but little about the
old Baptiats, the straight sect or the
peculiar people, referred to in the
Bible, as they claim, and there will
be crowt OF people there tomorrow
from all Of the surrounding country.
1t was at this church in an association
meeting that the split in the Blpti5t
denomination took place some fifty
years ago. Several questions were
up, but the chief difference was the
missionary principles. Rev. Reuben
Ross led the missionary wing and
the fight waged warm, resulting in
the missionary advocates going out,
leaving the professionalism wing in
possession of the church and property.
The seeding members of this
church organized and worshipped for
a number of years at Old Arkadel
phia, near Graysville, then built "A
brick church at Graysvillc, and some
years ago moved to Guthrie, where
they still have a good congregation.
The hard-side brethren have not pros
pered 50 well. The church has q
small membership and seldom has
preaching. There are but few
churches Of the denomination now
in existence, but few preachers hold
ing that faith. They are honest and
immOvable, however, in their doc
trine and are generally very piouS,
devoted people and good citizens.
Such men as the Forts, the Bells, the
.Iohnsons, organs, DndIeys, Jones
and many Others constituted the old
church. Lovet B. Bryan, "A man
greatly esteemed tor his christian in
tegrity, who died recently about the
age of So years, was the last link thai
connected the church with the inter
esting events of the past.
All ofthe primitive churches within
100 miles of Pondy Woods will be
represented in the association, and
the neighbOrhOod will be full OF
visitors.
