NOT RELEASED ON PAROLE.
Hammond and His Associates Are Still i
 Custody.

London, June 6.-The dispatch from Pretoria published in the Pail Mall Ga zette yesterday announcing that the four leaders of the Johannesburg reform com mittee-George Farrar, Lionel Phillips, Col. Francis Rhodes and John Hayes Hammond-whose sentence to death was recently commuted to imprisonment for fifteen years, had been released on parole, proves to have been untrue. A dispatch from Pretoria, which was sent from that place last evening and reached here this morning, says, upon the authority of the Diggers News, that the decision in the case of the reform committee leaders has been postponed until July Il, owing to objections raised to the casting of a proxy vote in the executive council for MT. J. M. Wolmarans, member of the council who is absent from Pretoria.

? pr. Kerfoot breaches the commence ment sermon at Howard college, East Lake, at Il a. m. today. At p. m. he will preach for pr. B. D. Gray at the First Baptist church. It Is a rare treat for Birmingham. for while pr. Kerfoot is known throughout the whole land as professor of theology in the Southern
 Baptist Theological seminary of Louis- vile. Ky. he is regarded as one of the foremost preachers of the south. When
 under 30 years of age, having studied : theology and law in this country and taken a course in the University of Leip- j sic, Germany, he was called to succeed
 the famous Dr. Richard Fuller in Balti- more, the most eloquent of all American Baptist ministers. From Baltimore Dr.
 Kerfoot was called to Brooklyn. N. Y., where his fame as a preacher gave him a great field in the city of churches. Fail ing health forced him to leave the pulpit for rest, but his activity and studlous- ness took him to Louisville, where he pursued special studies under the great Dr. J. A. Breadus. On the death of Dr.
 J. P. Boyce he was chosen his successor in the chair of systematic theology. Go and hear the eloquent preacher this evening. ,f .'ials .,F1ts3 Ht

of the initiated and these few we're and
are very quiet about it. The election
resulted as follows: President, Miss
Stanley; vice president, Mr.. Boomer;
secretary, Miss Blair; treasurer, MI.
Hand; attorney, Mr.. Ladd; critic, Mr..
Clough;% sergeant, Mr.. Adams; and so
great was the surpaise of the oppo-
sition and SO smoothly we're the wires
pulled that the ticket was elected by
reclamation. This is the first instance
in the history of the Philos when u
president has been chosen to succeed
herself and is such an endorsement of
her administration, to use a political
phrase, as to need no further comment.
A large audience attended the pupils
recital last Monday night and it was
we'll repeid for SO doing. Prof. Boi-
court has done a wonderful work in her
department this last term and it is, as
it always has been, the pride of the
college. She is one of the few teachers
who are able to combine perfection of
technique and expression without los
ing the best things of either; and, what
is more to be praised, has the rare
faculty of teaching her pupils the same
power. This is the first time, we be-
lieve, that Miss Kridlebaugh has ap-
peared.before a Hot Springs audience
and her success a great. While her
voice is not strong it is of great beauty
and We shall certainly expect much of
her in the future. Miss Stanley was
the only vocalist beside Miss Kridle-
baughand her merit as singeri is known
to all. She has a voice of marvellous
power and sweetness and these, COM
bined with her pure enunciation, make
it a delight to hear her always. We
regret that we have not space to give
each numbero of the program the notice
it deserves and a only say that each
performer played her part in a way
that was at once a compliment to her
self and a pleasure to her professor
and audience.

A Book Worth Having.

Demorest's magazine for January is
only another proof that this excellent
magazine is growing better with each
issue, and, valuable as it has been, it
even excels itself in this number.
Alice Barber Stephens contributes a
full-page colored picture, "Christmas
Shopping" which has all the grace and
attractiveness that this artists work
usually has, and is reproduced in soft,
beautiful colors which make it a most
attractive frontispiece. Four other
handsome full-page pictures and two
pages of notable portraits are followed
by the leading article of the number,
''The National Horse Show which is
full of lively interest and is illustrated
with the most spirited and artistic
drawings by Max Klepper, Clinedinst,
and others.
The rigors of IL winter i'll the Yellow
stone park are wildly described and
finely illustrated. Under the title lis
Chivalry Dead:" several prominent
women discuss the manners OF men
and women i'll business and show that
at least they are not all of the same
opinion.
The fiction of the number is of the
very best. All the departments are
up to the usual high standard, brim-
ming e with useful, practical sug-
gestions and information concerning
many topics of current interest in
science, letters, art, sanitation, and the
household. The fashion department is
larger than usual this month, is beau
tifully Illustrated, and full of sugges-
ton and helpfulness.
