THE SITUATION ALARMING.
"A Neritable Reign of Terror is Said to
Exist In Armenia


CoNsrANTINoPLE. Nov. Tho Tur-
kish minister Tor foreign affairs, Said
Pashs, has promised to give the am bas-
sadors OF the powers definite reply
within two days as to what steps The
porte intends to take for the restora ton
OF order In Armenia and to provide TO-.
the protect ons OF Christians in that part
of the Turkish empire.
This was the point especially alluded
to by the am bassadors on Tuesday last
when they represented the state of
affairs in Armenia could not be allowed
to continue, and that if adequate meas.
ures were not shortly taken to bring
about the restoration of order, the
powers would be compelled, acting in
concert, to take their own steps in the
matter.
No combined action OF such grave i'm.
portance upon the part of the powers
has been taken for years past, and the
fact that the por,e was reminded of the
Intervention of the powers in Syria at
the time OF the massacres in 1860 is
considered as direct warning to the
sultan that Europe will intervene TO re-.
store order in Armenia unless the Turk
ish government acts promptly.
As each day passes, however, the situa.
ton becomes more and more alarming
and adds TO the diff Guilty OF the task
before the European powers. From
Syria, especially, the most disau!etinR
rumors are coming, and that they are
based on facts 10 shown by the mobili.
zasion OF twenty battalions of Redifs
out of the sixty available, and the steps
being taken to dispatch them as
promptly as possible to that portion of
Asiatic Turkey.
This lends color to the report that the
Armenisns are receiving support from
unexpected sources and the Turkish
government may soon be face to face
with an open, widespread revolt against
the rule OF the sultan.
Arrests of Armenian and Turkish
suspects are constantly being m ade here
and elsewhere; but owing to the press
censorship few facts In this connection
are obtainable. Possibly tho most grave
turn In recent events lies in the fact,
established beyond any doubt, that tho
dissatisfaction against the rule of the
sultan has extended to tho Turkish
army and navy and that the palace
officials are we'll aware OF this fact and
are in state OF greatest alarm
Nobody here would be astonished to
near at any moment OF an outbreak in
the palace itself, in fact people who arc
well verseo in Turkish affairs assert
that this is among the immediate prob.
abilities and that only prompt show
OF force upon the part of the European
fleets can avert It,

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, of the New
York board OF police com N issioners,
has had good deal to say in regard to
reforming the morals OF the metropolis
for some months past, but the triumph
OF Tammany Hall at the polls on Tues.
day was decidedly discouraging to fur
ther work in that line. Whether Teddy
will get himself together again after
such knock out remains to be seen.
He has the reputation OF much courage
and great tenaclty Of purpose; but it is
hard to see how he can do any effective
work with Tammany working at Cross
purposes with him.

THE election in Maryland last Tues
day demonstrated the power Of the press
against all the appliances of bossism-
and machine politics. The Baltimore
Sun and the News. both strong Demo-
cratic journals, turned their batteries on
Senator German and his methods. with
result that vindicsted their Judgment
in the estimate Of the people by the
overthrow of the boss in the city and in
the State. This does not mean moro 8
victory for the Republicans than a tri-
umph for the people in their protest
against misrule and corruption.

IN THE results of the late election
there was much to surprise machine
politicians. But the greatest surprise
to everybody was the magnificent run
made by Mr.. b. A. Jones. Though a
novice in politics and without influential
political acquaintance or even gu fficient
time to spare from his large business
interests to make thorough canvass Of
Roanoke county alone, he still came
within less than 100 votes of beating an
experienced politician with sill the ma.
chinery OF the oldest and most powerful
political organization in the State be-
hind him. II was very rem arkable race
for man who was neither q politician
nor trained public speaker.

WASHINGTON dispatch says the
early returns from the election on Tues
day were telegraphed to President
Cleveland st Woodley, but after hear
ing some of the results he shut off the
phone soon in the evening, saying he
did not care for anything more. Sena-
tor German remained at his house in
Washington on Tuesday, and when in
formed that Maryland had gone Re-
publican by 10000 majority, he ordered
his servants to remove the knob from
the door-bell and close the lower part
of the residence. 1t is evident from
this that neither OF the above named
distinguished gentlemen was pleased
with the news sent over the wires.

This Blessed Year.
From the Atlanta Journal.

From the Atlanta Journal.
Cotton at cents a pound and the
greatest corn crop on record would
alone make this year memorable as
the bearer OF blessings alter period
OF depression, but the farmers have
other things to be thankful for.
The rice crop is enormous. Reliable
estimates Indicate that it will reach
at least It's, 900. 600 pounds, which
is over 40 per cent. more than the
crop of last year. We do not pro-
duce all the rice we consume, but will
come nearer to that mark this year
than ever before. Our annual con-
sumption of rice is about 20O,0O0,-
900 pounds, and this year we will
have only about % 900 900 pounds
to import. The change in the pros
poets of the masses of the people
that has occurred in the last six
months is phenomenal, All our in
dustries are fourishing, more men
and women are at work, wages are
better, the seasons have been
propitious and crops are great. The
year in which we live has brought us
many blessings, and it's goodly store
is not yet exhausted.

What is perhaps the most remark
able case of healing In answer to
prayer that has ever come to the no.
tice of Western North Carolinians is
related in a letter received by Will
liam Turner. of Asheville, from
Joshua A Gibbs of Whittier, Swain
county, N. c under date of Oct &.
OF Mr.. Cad xallader, the minister
who Is referred TO in the letter, Mr..
Turner says he knows him to be an
honest, good man. Mr.. Gibbs
writes:
my daughter, Mrs. Jennie Red,
man, has been a great sufferer from
complicated diseases during more
than five years. Since July. 1894,
she has been unable to stand on her
feet. When requiring to be moved
she has been carried in Ter Eus-
bands arms as babe. AIT. mpts 10
walk have been followed by intense
pain. Remedies OF almost every
name have been tri=h, each in turn
fait ing to give relief Sac has grown
worse. too, by the los OF appetite.
She was helpless and without hope
of recovery.
''Rey. j. Cadwa l4der, pastor of
the Congregations church In " hit
tier, who himself received Divine
healing eight years ago aud has had
much experience in counseling aud
praying with the sick in different
States, came to see and to ell courage
Mrs. Reiman to claim healing by
faith in Gods promises and trust
Him fully for health of her body.
Many passages of scripture were
pointed out containing promises
that Christ was as able and willing
to heal diseases now as when on
earth in person. Prayer was Offer
ed for her recovery.
"On Monday, Sept. 80, second
call was made by Mr.. Cadwallader.
After further conversation touching
our Lords willingness to recover the
| sick, Mrs. Redman's mother and
husband, together with Mr.. Cadwal-
lader and some others bowed in
| prayer before God. When Mrs
Redman's turn came to pray she
| seemed to have superhuman power
| and faith given her to grasp and
| cling to our Lord. After praying a
| minute or two, she sprang to her
feet, ran to her mother, threw her
aims around her neck, exclaiming:
| "Oh, mother! | am cured! God has
| healed me! l am well! Praise the
| Lord!' Afterward she repeated the
same words in her husbands arms.
''On the following Saturday, Oct
| 5, she roGe in a carriage to Whittier,
three miles away. Sunday morning,
the.6th, she attended service, walking
to and from church, short distance
away. By request she gave in the
/ presence of the audience brief but
intensely interesting account of her
healing by the Lord in answer to
the prayer of faith, which was lis
tened to with deep and abiding in>

had heard until yesterday of an in>

her Ileigbbors. Last year, saws one, the
United States worked up 2, 319, 388 bales
of cotton, of which the south get away
with lis, 515 bales, and Georgia was
surpassed only by North and South Caro-
lima The world s consumption of cotton
has doubled since 1870, and yet there
are still GOO, 600, 600 people who use on
an average less than three yards of cloth
each per annum. So the natural limit of
profitable production cannot be set at
less than 20,O00,0 600 bales. "We give
notice. says the enthusiast who pre-
sents these figures, s.that in the life of
men now full grown we shall produce
five-sixths of that cotton and work up
three fourths of our production in the
states where it is grown. -
If there is any difference in degrees
of enthusiasm, the promoters of sea is
land cotton are little the most ardent.
They present specimens and arguments
to show that ere long they will have a
much finer variety than in the boasted
golden age before the war; that it can
be grown as far inland as 200 miles
from the sea, and that with the i'm
provements now i'll process it will for
mixed goods go far to supersede silk,
linen and ramie. In fact, the city of
Valdosta, Ga, $50 miles from the sea,
is already the worlds greatest market

A HISTORIC CHURCH.
INTERESTING. ANNALS OF DR.. TALL
MAGE'S NEW CHARGE.

The First Presbyterian Church of WASH
ington Has Had Many Famous Statesmen
Among Its Members-For Forty Years
Dr.. Sunderland Has Been Its Pastor.
Although DR.. Talmage, who is soon
to begin his ministrations at the First
Presbyterian church at Washington, is
probably better known to more people
than any other American minister, his
predecessor, the Rev. Byron Sunderland,
D. D., who will also be his coadjutor,
has probably been the regular pastor of
a much larger number of prominent
persons than DIR. Talmage or indeed any
other American minister. DIR. SundeI-
land went to the First Presbyterian
church in 1858, and the fortieth ami
versary of his first sermon there was
celebrated ON Feb. 5, 1898. Only four
besides him were present who were also
present on the Sunday he began his Ia
bors there. Then he was young man.
His hair was dark, and his eyes were
bright. Now he is an old man. but his
eyes still sparkle. His voice is yet round
and full, and, although it has been
found necessary to divide his work, his
popularity with his congregation is still
SO great that his leaving is not to be
thought of.
Four presidents-Jackson, Pierce,
Polk and Cleveland-have sat under his
ministrations. Singularly enough, they
