5000 FIFTY LECTURES.

A special from Atlanta says
that Mr.. Bryan will deliver the
first of his series Of lectures in
Atlanta. January 5th. He will
then go to Nashville. Memphis
into Texas, and On North. Mr.
Comstock declines to give the
remuneration that Mr.. Bryan IS
to receive. The Atlanta C0HSH-
mhon says the report that he was
to receive $4,000 fer fifty l~c
lures is below the mark. He
will get more than that. The
figure is suci a handsome one
that Mr.. Bryans many dlsap-
pointed admirers may take some
consolation i'll the fact that be-
fore the dawn Of tie coming i'll
augur,I day their defeated but
not vanquished champion will
have earned an amount almost
equal to the yearly salary OF the
President of the United States.
This amount will place Mr..
Bryan, who is now a poor man,
in sufficiently independent cir>
cumstances to enable him to de-
vote his time and labor to the
cherished cause of bi-metallls1n.

The Yeopim Union.

The Yeopim Union met with
the church at Billiards. Bridge
On Friday before the 5th Sunday
in November. The introduce
tory sermon was preached by
Rev. Josiah Elliott from John
I4:6.
The churches in the Union
were more largely represented
than usual; only one church out
OF the twenty five composing the
Union, failed to send a represent
tative. The con ributions sent
up were sufficient to pay the
missionary indebtedness, and
still have enough left to send a
good amount to the State Board.
There is still a debt of about
$500 unpaid for money bor>
rowed by Rev. Josiah Elliott to
complete the Rose Bay Baptist
Church in Hyde county. At the
Union Meeting in December last,
at Whiteville Grove, an appoint
ment was arranged among the
various churches sufficiently
large to cancel the debt, but
some of the churches seem to
have taken little or no interest in
the matter.
Among the visitors to the
Union were Prof. Swami from
Murfreesboro F. Institute J. C.
Caddell, of the Recorder, and
brethren A. Bass and J. Math ews
from the Bertie Union.
The usual business was trans
acted. A new feature of the
Union was the election of a Sec
retary and Treasurer. Some>
thing that has not occurred b.
fore in twenty years or more. ex-
cept at the death Of brother
Joseph T. Waff, who served as
Secretary and Treasurer fer more
than a quarter of a century.
This action was a surprise to
many, as there had been no
charge of dereliction of duty al
legged against me as the Secretary
of the Union. When the real
cause was made known, it was
found to be a political measure;
the Democratic part OF the Union
being unwilling to longer retain
the writer as their Secretary.
Rev. w. B: Waff was elected |
by them as my successor, by the
aid OF a non-me1nber of the
church. Thus we see that polls
tics is creeping into the church,
and is sanctioned by some minis
ters of the gospel. They seem
to have forgotten that our fore>
fathers fought seven long years,
and split some of the best blood
of the country, in order to secure
IN % themselves civil and relig-
ious liberty, heritage left unto
their posterity.

EeTABLISHED 1886.
WATSON SCORES BUTLER.
"Liar |" "Traitori"and "Cow-
ardl" Among Epithets use d
by the Ex-Vice-Presi-
Dental Candidate.

Thomas +. Watson is now en-
gagged in printing signed edito-
rials i'll his Peoples party paper
regarding some of the men who
figured in his defeat. Foremost
among these he places Senator
Marion Butler, of North Carroll
la, chairman Of the Populist
National Committee. In one Of
his editorials Mr.. Watson says;
GAS long as Marion Butler IS
chairman of the Populist Ma
tional committee, it will be ut
terly impossible to get the real
Populists to take any interest in
campaign work. They know
him to be selfish, unprincipled
trickster, and nothing he can
now do will ever cause them to
forget what liar and traitor he
was during the campaign of
1896.
Judged from the Butler
standpoint, Populism is a mere
article of political merchandise.
He is devoid of any sense Of hon~
or. Words are to him the mere
tools in the game of deception.
"He does not mind telling the
truth provided he loses no point
in the game by doing SO, nor
does he mind telling an untruth,
even if 1t yields him nothing
more than the casual pleasure of
having deceived.
ave harbor no resentment
against Butler. 1t would be un-
just to do SO. When a constitu-
tional coward runs away from
the battlefield all generous men
feel a profound sympathy for
the victim of a natural defect of
character. In the same way we
Marion Butler. Nature
made him what he is, and he
cannot help it.
"To be foxy, doubled-faced,
false of tongue and treacherous
at heart is natural to him, and
when he betrays those who trust
him and de ceives those who are
silly enough to take him at his
word, he has no more sinncd
against his nature than does our
friend, the William goat when
he fights with its horns rather
than mouth or feet
"Too much Butler limbcrs us
in the regions of our faith. Too
much Butler gives us the incli-
nation to look with longing eyes
in the direction of the mountains
Of Hepsidam.

enough of Butler to last him a
life time"

Deputy Collector E. A. Momt tt

North Carolina, Saturday after
noon, at five o'clock. Mofftt,

with a search warrant for block
ade whiskey, supposed to be
there and made at Turner's sons

had seized. There seemed to be
little provocation for the shoot
ing. When Mof6tt took from
his pocket the warrant Turner
shot him through the heart with
a shot gun. Freeman caught
Moffitt as he fell discovering that
he was killed. In the meantime
some one shot Lee Turner who
died in about an hour. 1t is not
learned who shot Turner. The

Killed by Potato Bug Fumes.

Rev. Paul Ladd, a we'll known
colored minister of Bellefountain,
Ohio, died Saturday from
strange cause. Several months
ago he planted patch of pota-
toes. Potato bugs covered the
vines and he proceeded to gather
them into a pan and burn them.
Unfortunately, Ladd inhaled
some Of the fumes, which seem
to have been a deadly poison, for
at once his lungs became strange
ly affected, and he sank into a
consumptive state, which result
ed in his death at an early hour
morning.

NOIS DEMOCRATS

The picture Of Grover Cleve-

the Cook county, ILL.,, Democrat
ic club has been cut to pieces.
The perpetrators of the deed are
unknown. 1t is supposed to be
the result of the strife between
the gold and silver wings of the
party which reached its height
1T the annual club election Sat-
urday. The picture which was
one Of the largest and finest OF

painted in Buffalo and brought
to the National Convention of
1888 by the Buffalo Democrats,
who presented the portrait to the

Leading Newepaper Of Tia
A SPLENDID RECORD.
Made by the Life Saving Service
the Past Year.

The report of Mr.. Kimball
the general superintendent cf th'
life-saving service, for the yea
ending June goth, exhibits th'
most satisfactory results yet &C
complished ty that service. Al
though the total number Of dis.
asters was greater than in any
prior year, the percentage Of
lives and property lost was less
At the close of the year the es,
tablishment comprised ESQ sta
tons, of which 1856 were located
on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts
flfty-fve On The great lakes, four
teen on the Pacific coast, and one
at the falls of the Ohio, Louis
Vile, Kentucky. The number
of disasters to documented Ves~
sells within the scope of the ser
vice was 437, involving 4,ooS
persons, of whom 4,5o5 were
saved and thirteen lost. The es-
tilnated value of the vessels was
s8,88o,I4o, and Of the cargoes,
s3,34o,3So, aggregating total of
$I2,726,52o. Of this amount
SI,432,75o were lost. The num-
Der of documented vessels totally
lost was sixty-seven.
There were also during the
year 243 casualties to undocu>
nented small crafts, sail boats,
row boats, &c. OF the 5o4 per-
sons on board 587 were saved
and seven lost. The value of
the property in those casualties
is estimated at $IIo,265 of which
$II4,9I5 was saved.
The total number of ship
wrecked persons succored at sta
tions were 6I3. The total NUNS
ber Of days succor afforded was
1896. .Other persons (on board
vessels) to the number of eighty
two, were rescued from drown
ing, all of whom would probably
have perished but for the vigil>
ance and prompt assistance of
The life saving crews.
During the year the crews
saved and assisted to save 47a
vessels, valued, with their car
goes, at $4,S53,IIo. Of this
number 3IS were saved without
lie outside assistance, aggregat>
ng, with their cargoes a value of
s977,495, with loss of only $II,>
7I3. In the remaining 154 in>
stances the life saving crews as>
sisted of her agencies in saving
property valued at s3,59o,775
'ut of a total of $3,8756I5 im>
,eriled.
Less important assistance was
ende1ed to l67 other vessels in
distress. The patrolmen also
warned from danger by their
hight signals 21o vessels, and by
lay signals nineteen. The loss
# life and property averted in
hese 32o instances, of course,
annot be estimated, but the cir>
under which large
of the warnings were
made indicate that it must have
'een very considerable.
The cost of maintaining the
ervice for the year was $4,4oI,-

nadequacy of the compensation
