The Sunday School at Bethany celebra-
tad Children's Day on the 18th inst. The
exercises were very interesting. After
the teachers and pupils of the school had
finished their part of the programme,
Rev. M. Gassaway delivered an interest
ing and instructive address. Everything
was done quietly and in order.
Some of the mem bers Of Mt. Bethel
Church seem perplexed. One of their
raembers who Joined the Church in his
toyhood claims now that he was not
converted at the time CT his baptism. He
saws he has recently been converted, and
demands re-baptism, as he does not be-
i:eve baptism before conversion valid.
There is difference of opinion among the
members and the time set to decide the
matter is Saturday afternoon before the
second Sabbath in July.
The church at Bethany about two years
ago gave license to Mr.. N. G. Wright to
rreach the Gospel whenever he was call
ed upon. This he has done 80 well and
so faithfully that a month ago the church
called him to ordination, and Saturday,
the 18th inst, set apart for that purpose.
So on last Saturday Presbytery, consist
Few. r. M. King, Rev. M. MCGEE and
Few. M. GassaWay, in the presence of
many relatives and friends, ordained Bro.
Wright to the full work of the ministry.
The ordination sermon was preached by
Few. B. Hayes, Rev. r. M. King offered
the prayer and the charge to Bro. Wright
was delivered by Rev. r. w. Burts, fol-
lowed by Rev. NJ. Gassaway, who spoke
to both Bro. Wright and the church. Of
course Bro. Mike done some talking all
along the line.
Misa Mary Pruitt was in this section

him at Church Sunday.
Miss Lou. r. Haynie has returned
from Greenville, where she has been yis-

Elfnkscales Alliance is still on boom.
Nsxt Saturday is the regular meeting
day. All the members are urged to be

siYe, We will pass the turning point in our
trip around the sun, and start for shorter
days and longer nights. It will be natu-
raj to expect some heavy storms, with
rain and much lightning and thunder,
say about 23rd, oath and 25th. Cooler
weather will succeed these storms and re-
gions that are short of moisture at the end
of this period will have to contend with
serious drought. Reactionary disturb
ances are central on the 18th with full
moon and the equinox of Mercury on the
same day. These combined causes are
sure TO result in warm wave, and some
very active electrical storms, with heavy
local rains during the two or three days of
June. The month will close with very
cool weather advancing from the West,
which condition will prevail in most parts
In the opening days of July.
The Greenville Ne,us, of last Saturday,
says: Yesterday between IL and !
o'clock a respectable young white woman
who was walking In road just in the out
skirts of Piedmont was met by young ne
gro man who made an insulting remark
and some threats. The young lady
started to run and the negro made some
attempt to seize her, but on the appear
ance of white man desisted and fled to a
piece Of woods near by. The affair wes
reported aud large party of men searched
for the negro all the afternoon, finding
him at last. He was identified beyond all
doubt and confessed that he had done
what be was accused Of. After some dis
cussion he was taken to the woods, strip
ped and given thirty-nine lashes on his
bare back with a leather strap. About q
hundred of the best men in the town were
present. The mans name is William
Smith and he claims to be from Fork
Shoals. He had no complaints or re.
marks to make"

Alonzo Lindsey, the young white man
whom we alluded to last week as being
charged with robbing the postoface, had a
preliminary hearing before United States
Commissioner Frierson last Thursday and
he was committed to Jail, as the evidence
was very strong against him. 1t appears
that Lindsey had been robbing the mail
here for several months. Valuable letters
had been missed from time to time by
Postmaster Russell, and he could not ac-
count for 1t. He felt satisfied that some
one was tampering with the lock boxes.
A few nights ago Lindsey was seen to
open several lock boxes with shoe-but-
toner and cais,yyT.& what mail they con-
tanned. Lindsey came here from Asheville,
N. G., and it is said he was tried for the
same offense there but was not convicted.
1t is our sad duty to chronicle the death
of another good woman, Mrs. Amanda
Palmer, which occurred at her home In
Centerville Township last Monday morn
ing. She had been in feeble health for
several months, and a few days preceding
her death she was attacked with severe
case Of dysentery, which caused her death.
Mrs. Palmer was the relict of the late
Thos. B. Palmer, one of the best known
citizens in his day in the Fork. She was
about IS years of age, and in her girlhood
she Joined the Methodist Church and
throughout her life was most devoted
and consistent member. Indeed, she was
one of the best women that ever lived,
and was greatly beloved by her friends
and acquaintances. She never grew tired
of ministering to the sick and needy, and
her crown In Heaven will be Bet with
many jew els as reward from the Saviour
for the many good deeds done on earth.
Her remains were inferred at Cedar Grove
Church on Tuesday. She leaves behind
her many relatives vino will long cherish
her memory.

Il fOUuiist'S View.

j. '. Il. Priest in Milbank Herald
Advance: There are two candidates
in this judicial district for the office
OF circuit Judge, and every voter in
the district ought to vote for one or
the other of them. 1t should not be
treated as partisan question in any
sense. There is growing sentiment
that judicial elections should be nom
partisan. If there is any official posi-
tiOn that should be entirely divorced
from politics it is that on the judicial
bench. Judge Andrews has not only
been honest on the bench but has
shown himself learned in the law. He
is now with his ripened judicial eX-
perience in the prime of life, better
able to serve the people well and truly
than ever before. What valid reasons
has single voter in the district to
give for putting him out Of Office and
putting an untried man in his place?
Judges are servants Of the people, not
of party. We feel confident the peo-
pie favor a wise civil service reform,
and surely such reform will not sane
tOn turning an excellent, thoroughly
tried Judge from the bench. Lawyers
may not agree with our conclusion;
with due Difference to their opinions,
we can see it may be thought wise by
them to pass the judgeShip around
and give every attorney a chance, if
possible to hold an Office. We wish
them well, but we submit to them and
to the Taxpayers that the very poorest
use judicial office can be put to is to
have it considered as prize to be con-
tended for by political lawyers, and
held as reward for partisan service.
Between the two men there should be
no hesitancy Of choice by any cOnScien-
tiOuS voter who is independent enough
to vote for the man who he believes
will do the best service for the people.
No judge who ever sat upon the bench
of this state has held higher title to
thoroughly conscientious devotion to
duty and absolute integrity of official
conduct than has Judge Andrews.
There is not the slightest shadow upon
his record in this respect. If he has
made errors they are such as are in
Separable from human judgement,
but no one believes that he has ever
been actuated in his judicial career by
any other motive than a purpose to
secure as large measure of justice as
is possible through the administration
of the law. There are voters enough
in the district favorable to Judge
Andrews to elect him, and when the
people of Grant county come to think
of this matter in candid manner,
they will not throw away good tried
Judge for a young office seeker.

Microbes and Men.

Prof. Orcutt of Brookings, finished
a course of three lectures in the Rap
tist church last evening. His subject
was Microbes and Men," and was
very well treated. The Prof. is very
interesting speaker, and very learn
ed man, having devoted much time
and money to the study of the subject
upon which he lectures. 1t was under
stood that he would lecture upon the
Temperance question, but the course
was more of a scientific medical lee
ture. His talk and demonstrations
are so plain that a child can under
stand them. Last night he demon
strated the fact that all intoXicants
are poison and act upon the system
the same as strychnine, only not as
severely. The lectures are valuable
to every one and especially to those
desirOus of preserving their health.
The professor went to Hurley today to
deliver course of lectures.

Independents Incline Your Ear to The
Tribune.

A. r. Allen, of Deuel. county, was a
candidate before the Independent
convention at WatertOwn for the
nomination for Circuit Judge. After
it was over he said:
deuel. county is perfectly satisfied
with the nomination except for the
Democratic endorsement. We do
object to that. We have it in for the
Democrats and had | received the
nomination | should have entered a
protest against the democrats having
anything to do with my candidacy,
and would in every way possible have
shaken off the incubus"
If Mr.. Allen will incline his ear this
way, and it appears to be long enough
to reach this point without stretching,
we will gently murmur into it that he
has little to fear from Democrats over
here: very few will ''incubus" the can
didate now in the field, and there
would have been less had Allen re-
ceived the nOmination.-VOlga Tri-

NEW RULINGS.
Auditor Hipple's New Rulings Regard
ing the Issuance of State Warrants


PIERRE, Sept. 1.--State Auditor j.
E. Nipple has made a number of rul-
ings in his Office recently in regard to
the issuance of state warrants, which
is a change in: the manner affairs
OF the state have heretofore been
managed in this Office. One of the
most important decisions is to the
effect that no bills of the state insti-
tions will be allowed and warrants
drawn on the 1s93appropriation where
the service was rendered or material
furnished previous to the present
fiscal year, unless the material fur
niShed was for use after July 1st of
this year. There is no question that
the auditor is upheld by the law, as it
is very explicit in stating that money
appropriated for specific time can
only be used for that period. Most of
the state institutions seem to have
had deficiencies owing to the made
quate and reduced appropriation
made by the legislature two years ago.
The officers of these institutions
seemed to think that when the new
appropriation became available they
could send in their old bills and have
them allowed. Thousands of dollars
of old accounts have been sent in this
way, but they have been returned and
the only way the people interested can
get their money is by the passage of a
deficiency bill by the legislature two
years hence.
Another ruling made by the auditor
is in regard to the tree culture boun-
ty. A law passed in 1881 eXempts
Of 1n
upon which five acres Of trees are
growing. In 1888 another law was
passed paying bounty of 81 per acre
for land upon which trees are planted,
after the trees are 3yearS old, for a
period Of ten years. Heretofore not
only has the forty acres been exempt
ed from taxation where five acres of
trees were growing, but the bounty
has been paid also. The auditor holds
that where the party owning trees has
claimed an exemption he is not en-
titled to 81 an acre bounty on the five
acres of trees. However, the bounty
will be paid on the increase over five
acres of trees he may have growing.
This ruling will save the state good
many thousand dollars. Attorney
General Crawford rendered the aud
itOr decision which SustainS him IN
this decision.
The auditor has also ruled that
supervisors of elections in unorgan-
lied counties, and committees of in
vestigation sent by county judges to
investigate the condition Of insane
patients at the hospitals, cannot be
paid out Of the state treasury. There
are good many laws in the old terri
tOrial code which were adopted by the
state providing that the auditor shall
pay bills for which the legislature
failed to make appropriation.
