The Proposed N. & w. Extension-Colleg
Commencement Exercises.
RoGERsvILLE, Teun., May 22.-Spe-
cial-Much interest Ia manifested in
EASE Tennessee in the reports of the
extension of the Norfolk and Western
railroad from Bristol to Knoxville. The
Norfolk and Western has many friends
In this part OF the country who would be
glad to welcome its extension South
west
The Holston Valley, which 10 would
traverse, westward from Bristol, is one
OF the largest and most ferti. @ in the
South. Besides, 1t Is rich in minerals.
especially in marbles and all sgricul-
tural products. There are but few VAL
leys In the South so broad. so long and
so fertile that have no railroad. More
over, 1t would be q shorter route from
Bristol to Knoxville. The right OF
way can be secured at q nominal price.
and 1t Is believed that the counties and
towns would contribute to Its construc-
ton.
The commencement exercises of the
forty.eixth session of the Rogersville
Synodicel College will begin on Friday,
May 20, at Up. M, with an entertain
medt by the primary department. On

RESOLUTION in Regard to Young Peo-
Pies Societies Causes an Adjournment.
SARATOGA. N. Y, May as-The
Presbyterian general assent Div broke IN
AZ o'clock this afternoon in confusion
In the midst Of a vote on resolutions of
the special committee on the relations
oi young peoples societies TO the
church.
Reaolu tons had been adopted that a
statement OF relations should be sent 20
these societies TO be read by them and
fesfhfming the action of the assembly
or 1893. The former communication
was reached only after long discussion
ana under the operation Of the previous
question. p0''
just at the hour OF adjournment amo-
ton was made to strike out the recoms
mendsuons OF the committee and to dis.
charge IT, Action on this motion was
only prevented by the abrupt announce.
ment OF the vice-modePator, DR.. Benz.
Il. Agnew. OF Philsdelphia, that the
nour OF the session had expired and that
the assembly stood adjourned.
Tbe recommendation of the commit
tee was entirely eliminated after an
animated discussion and after
division. Il related TO the formation OF
Presbyterian unions OF young peoples
societies in all of the Presbyteries. The
action In this direction WAS due to the
belief that the plan as proposed would
seriously interfere with present inter.
UNCONVENTIONAL associations and co.
operations.
