NIRGINIAN CHALLENGES AN ACTOR.
A dispatch from Columbus, Ohio, says
Edward Hayden, the theatre actor
who is prominent in Frank Daniels
Wizard of the Nile" company, bss
been formally challenged to fight, ard
is given choice of weapons. The
Wizard OF the Nile" was on the boards
at the Southern. Among those who
enjoyed the play was Jack Basel, II
son Of the proprietor of the Crittenden
hotel, ssel was the escort OF
Young woman. After the play he went
to ca Sc with her, and having gwen an
order 20 the waiter, excused himself
for a look into the saloon adjoining.
He saw ranged along the bar IN a'il-
rudes of thirst and expectancy severa
members of the Daniels cast. Among
Them was John Ryder, who invited him
TO Join them in bowl. Bassell de
Glued with thanks. Ryder renewed
the invitation. Again Bassell declined.
Invitation and declinsiion became so
emphatic that the TWO men became
angry and came together in a pictur-
esque collision.
Then Hayden appeared upon the
scene He closed his fingers on Bas-
sells throat, and was so thoroughly in
earnest that the friends of both inter
ferred. Bassell protested that h" had
not the honor of a pei sonal acquaintance
with Hayden. Hayden expressed his
surprise and tlourished bit Of aste-
board under Bassell nose
Presently Bassell was induced to
quit the group and returned to the res
taurant. Then he found that the
young woman had lost patience and
had gone home in the company of a
friend. Bassell was furious. He culled
Tor pen, ink and paper and wrote for
nal challenge, which he mailed. He
gives Hayden the choice of weapons
but requests that time he callsd at the
actors earliest convenience. Hayden
has gone out of the city in the course Of
business, but he doubtless mas received
the challenge
Basel is Virginiau, and has been
in the city two or three years. His
father was in the southern army.

SmOIenski's New Position.

London, May S.-The news from the
seat of war is still somewhat confusing as
to the exact position of the Greeks, but
it appears certain that Gen. Smoenski
at Almyros and Domokos is not in a
geographically strong position.
The Turks have full control of the road
leading from Thessaly to the valley of
Spherchies and LAMA by the Mochluka
pass, while no obstacle exists to prevent
them from advancing by Turka pass and
cutting off all communication with Domo-
kos and LAMA.
AT no point during the retreat of the
Greeks from Pharsalos on Wednesday
was there anything like rout, although
the ranks were moved by Turkish shrap-
mel. The Turkish lines advanced quietly
and irresistibly, the gaps closing up in
stantly, as if the men We're not only in
different but actually unconscious of the
fire.
The Greek wounded who were found at
PharsalOs said that the Greeks hardly
made pause after entering the town,
the retreat beginning almost Immediately
They left behind them great quantities of
ammunition. but they took their field
guns. The retreat was not the result of
a general plan, for the position could not
have been carried without enormous loss.
Therefore their retreat must have been
due TO the fact that the troops could no
longer be trusted to fight, even from the
strongest position.
The Greek loss is estimated at 25O.
The streets of Pharsalos are now full
OF Turkish soldiers, chatting gaily and
drinking eagerly at the wells. The adj
Joining villages are deserted eXcept by
old men. who have taken refuge in the

Del Vale, Tex, May 3.-The past
week has been filled with pleasant social
events, the most, important being a de-
lightful picnic on Onion creek last Sat
urday, given by the Devotion school to
mark the close of the session. A NEST
enjoyable day was spent by all. Messrs
Caldwell and Houston from Austin were
noticed on the grounds. -t-As
Two elegant parties also added to last
weeks enjoyment, one at Mr.. Tom
Thrasher's and the other at Mr.. JEFF
Houston's.
All the public schools have now closed
and the children are enjoying recrea-
ton in the field.
Mr.. VIM. Blocker has returned from
his trip north with cattle.
Mrs. Thos. Shaw of Eagle Pass Is Wis.,

Mr.. and Mrs. Owens have returned

Mr.. Addie Giyens has been enjoying

Mr.. William Mobley was kicked in the

London, May S.-A dispatch to the

VanOs wires from Aria that the Turks
have begun wholesale massacre of the
inhabitants in the interior of Epirus. Al
most all the inhabitants of the village
of Kanvarina have been murdered. A
few only escaped into the mountains
From other parts women are arriving in
Arta in the most miserable condition,
begging protection for their husbands
and children, who are being murdered
by the enraged Turkish troops. Many
of these people have gone mad. Some
are unable to articulate single word
Others relate unspeakable atrocities.
The blockade of the coast of Epirus
will begin at o'clock Saturday morn

have been ordered there for this purpose

SOUTHERN BAPTISTs
In Annual COnventiOn-The Whit.
slit Controversy Came Up.

IN Annual COnventtOn-The Whit
| slit Controversy Came Up.
Wilmington, N. c., May THE South
ern Baptist convention began its annual
session in this city today, the president,
Hon. Jonathan HARRISON of Alabama
presiding.
Seven hundred and twenty-one dele
gates were present. Mr.. HARRISON was
! nominated for reelection for the Office
| of president, and the present secretaries,
Or. Lansing Burrows Of Atlanta and DR..
0. II. Gregory of Baltimore, were re-
| elected for the ensuing year.
AT the afternoon session the Whitsitt
controversy. which has excited so much
| interest among the Baptists of the coun-
try. came up. Rev. DR.. Whitsitt, presi-
dent of the Southern Baptist Theolegf-
cal seminary at Louisville, wrote several
| editorials for the Independent, in which
he took the position that prior to 1841
the rite of baptism among the Baptists
was performed by sprinkling. This
started controversy which it was fear
| ed would result in a heated debate during
the session of the convention. Apparent
ly, however, the question has been peace
fully settled by the action of the con-
vention today. The trustees of the SEM
mary submitted to the convention let
ter written by DR.. Whitsitt outlining the
/
which was endorsed by the trustees.
In conclusion Mr.. Whitsitt says:
I'm regard to the articles written as
editorials for the Independent, I have
| long felt it was a mistake, and the gen
erous action of the board of trustees
renders 1t easy for me to make this state
ment. tl.
| What | wrote was from pedo-Bap-
1 fist stand, with view to stimulating
| historical research. with no thought that
| 1t would injure the Baptists and with no
intention to disparage Baptist doctrines
or practices.
The article in Johnson's Encyclopedia
has probably passed beyond my control,
but 1t will be pleasing to me if / can hon.
orably procure the elimination from It Of
! Whatever is offensive to any of my breth-
rel. On the historical questions involy-
ed in the discussion find myself out of
agreement with some historians, but
what | have written is the outcome of
patient and honest research, and l can
not do otherwise than to re-afIirm my
| convictions and maintain my position
The discussion of the letter was the
signal for an outburst Of feeling. The
congregation sang song after song, while
Dr. Whitsltt was overwhelmed with
handshaking and embraces.
The vice presidents elected were G..
Northern of Georgia. J. p. Eagle of
Arkansas, II. A. Marsh of North Caro-
lima, and J. Leving of Maryland.
The ninth annual meeting Of the Wom-
ans Auxiliary to the Southern Baptist
convention also met today. Miss H. H..
): Heck; president, delivered her annual
address. and the corresponding secreta-
~, Miss A. w. Armstrong, submitted
her report: It showed the entire re-
ceipts OF the Womans Missionary Union
sions, $29,931; for foreign missions, $23,-
476. 70
After transacting the routine business
the convention adjourned until tomor-
row.
