EMORY COLLEGE.
Students Favored With n series OF
Unusually Fine Lectures.

Oxford Ca, March 25.-The students of
Emory College are OF present enjoying
some uncommonly fine lectures. Two of
the most prominent members of the
Southern Methodist Church, Bishop
Charles b. Galloway Of Jackson Miss,
and DIR. Z. E. Hass of Nashville are each
delivering a series, and many ministers
of the North and South Georgia confer
ences are in attendance to reap the bene-
fits of them.
Last spring, Rev. w. F. Sullivan gave
to the college a sum to be donated TO
bringing to Emory annually, instructive
lecturers, and to this amount the trustees
and alumni have added, so that 1t has as
sumed quite a proportion and has been
denominated "the Sullivan foundation,
in honor of the founder. The lectures of
those who come from year TO year shali
be published and the profits derived there
from, along with any additional donations,
shall be added. to the fund. This marks
an era in Emorys history, for as long as
the college exists, its students shall enjoy
the opportunity of hearing some of
Americas most brilliant sons, privilege
which few young men can claim.
1t to deliver the first series of these lee
lures that Bishop Galloway comes. and
every night the church has been crowded
with visitors and students. He has chos-
en- as his subject, 1.-The Influence of Chris
tianlty in the Formation of the American
Commonwealth"
Dr. E. E. Hass, editor of the Nashville
Christian Advocate, who holds a lecture
ship here, is for his fourth year with us
10 speak upon Pastoral Theology" These
lectures are mainly intended for young
ministers, but all are welcome and the
good derived from them is very great
These being in connection with the reg
ular college work are held in Seney Hall
and are largely attended.
For this week DIR. Gambler has in con-
nection with the Bible course been lectur-
ing to the seniors upon the Pauline
Epistes," and the visiting ministers avail
themselves of the opportunity of hearing
him, as his talks are unusually instruc-
tive

CROPS AT WINTER HAVEN.
Yield Of Peaches Expected to BE I'm
usually Large.

Winter Haven, Fla, March 25.-Our
peach crop is thought to be unusually
large this year. Old trees are not doing
so well, but young trees promise an album
dant harvest. Orange and lemon trees
are full of young fruit, and an occasional
pineappel is picked. Lakeland has been
shipping carloads of strawberries for more
than a month, but Winter Haven has seen
but little of that luscious fruit.
Rain is much needed but by watering
and cultivation our planters expect to
make crops. Those Robert Bryson has
demonstrated, are the things needful
Having three-fourths of an acre in
squash, Mr.. Bryson determined to expert
ment with a quarter of an acre. This he
fortified highly, giving it all the water
il needed. His first pickings from the ia
vored quarter amounted to eighteen crates,
the net returns from which more than paid
all expenses of fertilizins, ETC. The re-
naming half acre, which received only the
usual amount of cultivation, has yielded
nothing.

AFTER SEVENTEEN YEARS.
California Miner Loved n wife Well

California Miner Loved a wife Well
Enough to Wait for Her.
Here is California romance of pov-
erty and riches. Seventeen years ago,
reports an exchange, Mrs. Cecilia Nou-
CUES, then only 19years old, went to the
Pacific coast with her husband on their
honeymoon trip. There for the first
time they met John R.. Hite, one of the
pioneers Of the gold days, who had
made fortune OF So, 0oO, 900. They were
his guests at dinner once or twice, and
then parted from him to meet no more
for years. In their brief acquaintance,
however, the millionaire gold miner had
learned to love pretty Mrs. Nougues,
and though she already had young
and healthy husband, he vowed he
would never marry until he could make
her his bride. Through years of wait
ing, when he had lost all traces of her,
he kept his vow. Recently he became
i'll. His doctor ordered nurse, and
Mrs. Nougues, now q widow earning her
own living as nurse, was sent to attend
him. Each was unaware of the identity
OF the other until they met in the sick
room. Imagine, if you can, their sur
prise. Mrs. Nougues was a capital
nurse, and Mr.. Hite became such an ex-
cellent patient that health soon re-
turned. Then the millionaire, now 81
years old, avowed the love that had
survived II years of doubt and waiting.
Mrs. Nougues accepted, and they were
married in Oakland on October II by

silent Monitor Used by a Methodist
Church IN OreEon.
After careful considerations the Cen
tenary Methodist church Of Portland,
Ore, has decided upon a novel plan
for raising funds necessary in conduct
ing the affairs Of the congregation, re-
ports the Chicago Chronicle. It was
suggested by the pastor, Rev. j. j.
Waters, who has determined to run his
church as a democracy, giving every
body opportunity and inducement to
contribute. AT a meeting of influential
members he explained his plan. He
showed a large roster with all the
members of the church on it, Opposite
each name are SO spaces for credit
marks. The roster is placed in the
vestibule of the church, where it re-
mains, and is in plain view of everyone
entering the church. At the close of
every month TIL roster is taken down
and all who hP4" contributed any,
thing to the current expenses of the
church are checked up in the spaces OPP
posite the names. The amount paid is
not given, but the check indicates that
something, however small, has been
paid toward the support of the church.
The contributions come into the hands
of the clerk by means of envelopes,
and the amount and name are obtained
in this way. The roster will show just
who has paid anything and who has not.
It is claimed for the system that the
delinquents get tired after awhile see
ing the row of blanks after their names
and begin to pay something in order to
fill up the blank spaces. 1t is sort Of
ever-present dunning board. It looks
down with significant silence on every
member who enters the. church door.

seeing eye. Whether pres, MT or absent,
he knows it is there, end. the blank
spaces seem constantly o say: 'Pay
something" The meeting adopted the
plan unanimously.

A case of rather remarkable CONNER
cial honesty has just come to light. In
1875 one of Springfield's well-known
shoe dealers found himself SO embar-
raised by depreciation in value of stock
and the difficulty in collecting accounts
that he failed and made compromise
with his creditors of so cents ON the
dollar. rss
After 90 years, reports the Spring
field (Mass.) Republican, the merchant,
now considerably over 70 years old,
has settled all those old claims in
full, paying the balance unpaid at that
time, amounting to several thoueand
dollars. There was no claim on him
other than that of his conscience.
All his creditors had signed a paper
acknowledging their satisfaction, and,
in fact, Il large number of the original
papers had been destroyed, so that the
merchant had to settle in accordance
with the figures he had in his posses
sion, paying over money In some cases
to heirs, or to surviving partners who
knew nothing or had nothing to show
of the original transaction.
The conscientious old shoe dealer Is
very anxious not to have his name APP
pear-his act would lose it's merit
through advertising, he says.

CATTLE DYING IN AUSTRALIA.
Havoc of Tick Plague Has Become
RuinOus to I'm the
Island Continent.

Advices from Australia state that
the tick plague is pla. ing terrible
havoc with cattle. More widespread
and ruinous is the result ilan will ever
be tod to the outside world. Like IL
drought last summer. which killed
countless thousands of sheep by sta
walton, the tick Plague is spreading
alarmingly. Scores of irs )ectors have
been appointed by every colony to
keep travelling through wide districts,
quarantine all affected territory. and
kill diseased cattle. These inspectors
are fioodi-g the government with re-
ports of "ticked up" districts, and tt"
press of the country has become much
alarmed and is calling for still more
vigorous efforts 20 stamp it out. Off
cial reports state that the ticl: fever
is becoming more virulent and that all
cattle attacked die. \ large number
of districts are how "ticked up" which
means that no meat can be old from
them. II is a great hardship to ranch
ers, causing much suffering in many
communities.
