Union County Baptist s. S. Convention

MIR. EDITOR. AS the proceedings of the
Union County Baptist Sunday School Con-
vcntion has always been published In the
columns Of the TINES, md rs your regular
correspondent was not there, / have been
requested TO give short account of the
meeting:
The 18th session Of this convention met
with tho Mt. Lebanon Church on Friday
before the 9th Sunday in October
AT the appointed hour the Vice President,
j. W. Sanders, took the chair, and as tho
Secretary was absent. ". g. Jeter was
elected Secretary pro tenn. 1t being such an
unfaSorable day it was late when some of
the delegates reached the place, and the
convention was very small in attendance,
only seven sch, OILS being represented. Not
withstanding thus, the Queries were ably dis
cussed, and to the point. There were no
preachers until Saturday, when Rev w. p.
fhTatEetstc HmlEe cage IN. ne cSod added largely to the
active part in all The EntiOn. lie took an
some good and interesting speeches. He
also preached the missionary sermon on
Sunday morning. The meeting was pleas
ant and all were lively and in good humor.
There was not much money sent to the con-
vcntion, there being so few schools repre-
scntcd. The delegates were most hospita-
bly, cared for aud every family seemed anx-
ious to have some delegates. Judging from
the tone of The ..othcr delegates and speak
ing for myself and companion, we all en-
ioycd ourselves hugely.
The next convention will msct with the
Bculah Church the last of December, and
tn It church is very anxious for full atten-
Ounce, feeling that they can make that part
of Christmas 10 be well spent to all those
who attend IT. w. O. JETER,

BY some oversight, or from some other
cause, the legislature last year neglected to

nothing could be done by the Commissioners
to reduce the obligations Of the county in

the request Of the County Commissioners
this year nud authorize the levy Of cuff

and for pnst Indebtedness, as well rs for the

Rel5" The State Fair, il is now stated, was
n financial failure this year. Among the
many causes assigned for the failure, We
..o,o $50: cnu thnt the throng to the Worlds
Fair was considered one yet, judging from
this vicinity, it was tho greatest cause.
Three went to the Worlds Fair from this
place, 10 ono that went to the State Fair.
The Summer resorts. all over the country
have been almost failures from the same
cause.
The Chicago Worlds Fair was grand sue
cess, financially rs we'll as in every other
respect. The stockholders maic millions of
dollars out of it. and all who visited the
great exhibition were well pleased.
No doubt large amount of money was
expended to make it the creditable exhibit
that it was, but we arc inclined to think
that tho press of tho country did more TO
make it success and received less in
proportion for il than any other factor.
In mct so far as we know, the prest
received nothing, notwithstanding there
appeared during the Fair, from one to three
columns OF illustrated World FAIR matter
