The statement that Great Britain has sig
nified her willingness to abandon the Clay
ton-Bulwer treaty. thus leaving the way
clear for the United States to construct and
control the Nicaragua canal, is probably
true The relations between the two conn
tries are so entirely different now from what
they were when the Clayton Bulwer treaty
was signed that Great Britain should be
perfectly willing to consent to its abroga-
ton. At the same time, if she does it should
be accepted by the United States as
friendly act.

Women ON school Boards.

New York is to have women on its School
Board This lis a reform which is impera
lively demanded. There are some things
connected with the welfare of teachers and
children which only women adequately APP
preciste and they are less subject than
men to political influences, the reason why
politicians so vehemently oppose the innova-
ton. The women of every community hav-
ing important interests in the matter of edu-
cation should have representation on the
boards governing those interests.

ANDREW JONES
THE NEW PROPHET
Predicts That President Mckinley
VIII Cult the White House with
the Country iH Bad Condition.

Andrew Jones a colored minister and a
prophet he says arrived in the city this
morning He claims that he predicted
the great Johnstown flood in 1855, one
year before it happened He also says
that he told the people of St Louis that
a great disaster would come to that city,
two years before the cyclone of 1896 He
also says that as early as 1892 while at
Covington. KY he foresaw the war with
Spain. He says that a great calamity will
overtake this city. Though he does not
specify any date. He likewise says that
New York is TO be visited by one Of the
greatest disasters known to history. Rev,
Jones prophesies that when Mr.. McKin-
ley will have served out his term he will
leave Washington with the country in
the most distressed condition ii has ever
known. The people, he says. will be re-
duced almost TO poverty and the fate of
the Government itself will be hanging by
a slender thread. He did not attempt to
forecast the term of service Mr.. Mckinley
will render to his cOuntry-Wifether it will
be for four years or for a longer period;
but he will depart from the White House
when the country is in a most horrible
condition.

FOR
WHITE CITIZENS
Nine Accused by the Federal Grand
Jury i'm Columbia, :. c., for
Vanishing TOIherI.

Columbia, S. c., Dec. lit was some
thing of a surprise yesterday when the
grand jury in the United States Court
brought in a true bill against nine citi-
zens of Mccormick on the charge of con-
spiracy. The main feature of the indict-
ment is that James W. Tolbert was run
out of Mccormick.
1t was alleged that a mass meeting was
held and it was decided to make Tolbert
leave Mccormick within twenty-four
hours He was waited on by commit
tee and told of the action of the meeting.
He went to Washington and then the ac-
ton taken was agreed upon.
Bench warrants were sworn out yester-
day and Deputy Clayton went to McCor-
mick to serve them. 1t is not expected
he will have any trouble in arresting the
accused persons. He will probatty return
today with the prisoners, ana it is
thought the defendants will then ask for
a postponement of the case until the April
term of court which meets in Charleston.
1t is stated by the District Attorney
that he will not undertake 10 show that
there was any violence. but he will hold,
as has been decided in a Georgia case,
that an agreement to force any one to
clerk, is equivalent to conspiracy 1t is
said the resolutions adopted in McCor-
mick were signed by citizens before the
committee was sent to wait on Tolbert
The same was done in Wilmington, with
a view to binding all who participated in
the meeting.
