Co1uMBUs, o., May 22.-Later reports
from various points in Ohio are to the
effect that last weeks frosts were not as.
destructive as at first appeared. Though
all the early garden vegetables were
killed, it is not yet too late for replant
ing. Some hope is entertained for the
fruit crop. Apples and peaches are not
believed to be all destroyed, and some
orchards on high ground escaped ens
tirely. The potato and corn crops
were nof far enough advanced to 30
seriously affected, and wheat Is be-
lieyed to be uniniured.

WASHINGTON, D. O., May 22.-The fact
that the Charleston has notyet reported
her arrival at Panama is now regarded
by the Navy Department as an evidence
that the vessel did not deviate from her
course to go into Panama, but has passed
onward and southwark. So no news is
expected from her until she reaches a
South American point, probably Payta
or Gallao, Peru, which is not expected
to happen before evening. Meanwhile
there is absolutely no news of the ltata.

sessions of the committee.
POSTPONED FOR YEAR.
The motionwas unanimously adopted
and the great debate was over for this
year, SO far as the General Assembly is
concerned.
Rev. DR.. Herrick Johnson, Of the Nc
Cormick Seminary, chairman OF the
Committee of Unemployed Ministers,
reported a plan to bring unemployed
ministers and vacant churches together.
He advocated scheme to remedy the
universally deplored evils of the exist
ing state Of things, which would de-
pend on Presbyterian action for its prac-
tical working, with permanent paid

and made the second order OF the day
tomorrow forenoon.
The report of DR.. McCorke, OF the
Committee on the Seal, was made the
second order of the day for this after
noon.
At the opening Of the afternoon SEES
sions Rev. DR.. Henry McCook read the
report OF the committee on the seal OF
the Presbyterian Church, of which he
gave an interesting history. Judge
Hano, OF Scranton, Pa, made the report
for the committee on the business de-
partment OF the Board OF Publication.
It approved most that had been found
in the business management, recon-
mending but slight change.
Mr.. Simmons said that Judge Hano's
committee had not consulted him since
preliminary meeting OF both commit
tees last November, although he was
fullyprepared to osubstantiate the charges
made last year, and although it was
appointed for the express purpose OF
reporting on the matters involved in
those charges. This may arouse, as it
did last year, a good deal of warm de-
bate when it comes up next. Tuesday

THE CRIMINAL DOCKET.
WILL BE TAKEN UP TO-DAY IN TERRELL
COUNTY SUPERIOR CoURT-JUDGE
MARTIN PRESIDING.

MARLIN PhESlDlNGs
The spring term of Terrell SUI
perior court convened last Monday morn
ing with Judge J. H. Martin, of Taibotton,
presiding for Judge Query.
The grand jury was organized by the
election of Prof. j. W. F. Lowrey as
foreman.
Judge Martins Tcharge to that body
was able, clear and pOinted-just such a
charge as will be of much benefit to
that body in discharging it's duties.
The civil docket was taken up soon
after court convened, and Judge Martin
has been discharging the business of the
court very rapidly. He moves the ma
chinery of the court always with firm
ness and dispatch, and the officers and
lawyers of the court have learned that
it is business with him from the start.
CRIMINAL BUSINESS.
The criminal docket will be called this
morning, and the balance of the week
devoted to the trial of such cases.
There are two or three murder cases
to be disposed of during the term, the
most important of these being that
against Homer Willis for killing George
Outlaw. This case will be called to-
morrow or next day. The young boys
father, MT. Aleck Willis, who is a promi-
nent and highly esteemed citizen of
Ennis, Texas, arrived in the city last
Friday, and has since been busiiy en-
gagged with his lawyers, Messrs. Waters
and Laing, arranging for the defense of
his son. In this connection the NEWS
desires to state that Mr.. Willis says it is
mistake that his boy used any oath
whatever during hi visit to him at the
jai! just before leaving for Texas after
the unfortunate occurrence. MI. Willis
says that the boy was very much affected
when he visited him, and that the only
words he said, were: swell, father, why
did he stomp me?' This statement is
given in justice to the young prisoner
and his heart-broken father.
COURT NOTES.
Judge J. c. + Clark, the venerable
clerk. is unable to be at his post. Mr.. f.
w. Clark has been sworn in as deputy
clerk, and, assisted by Judge II. S. Bell,
is discharging the duties of that office.
Among the visiting attorneys present
are Coils. Wooten, Wonill and Warwick.
Sheriff Christie is discharging his du-
ties in as pleasant and efficient manner
as ever.
Court will probably adjourn at the
close of the week.
