Pastor Hart to Stay in the Pulpit of
His Columbia Church.

Columbia, S. c., June 5.-The Sidney
Park church trouble was settled tonight
by the announcement of Bishop Holsey
that he had placed the church in the
Greenville district, thereby removing it
from the supervision of Elder Stilson,
who appears to be the bette noire of the
congregation. The bishop had rather Il
rough time at first trying to ex-
plain why he did not appear here
last week to investigate the trouble,
and several times some sharp expressions
We're showered upon him Some one in
the gallery cried, Put him out and the
bishop replied by calling him a narrow
headed thief and saying that he looked a
coon. His announcement that he had
taken the church from Elder Stilson's
district and would leave Hart as their
pastor poured oil on the troubled waters
and there will be no further trouble until
the conference meets.

that our people should be informed

at does not need the art of statesman
ship to detect the danger that awaits
upon a continuance of this operation. AL
ready the timidity of capital is painfully
apparent and none of us can fail to see
that fear and apprehension in monetary
circles will ultimately bring suffering TO
every humble home in our land
II think that between now and the
meeting of congress much depends upon
the action of those engaged in financial
operations and business enterprises. Our
vast national resources and credit are
abundantly sufficient to justify them in
the utmost faith and confidence. If in
stead of being frightened they are con-
servative, and if instead of gloomily an
ticipatiug disaster they contribute their
share of hope and steadiness they will
perform patriotic duty and at the same
time protect their own interest The
things needed just now are GOODNESS and
calmness in financial circles, and study
and reflection among our people"
