with the possibility of being herself a
power among them. To the woman OF
highly endowed mind, nothing can take
the place of companionship with a great
| statesman, and those who nave enjoyed
it at Washington find a strange dearth
in their lives when a new administration
| forces husband or father out of office.
scoffers are apt to say that beauty or
a fat bank account is accountable for all
| the brilliant marriages which our wom-
en- make, and the fact is altogether ignor-
| ed that a certain qualification, if not ex-
aetly necessary, is at least a frequent
| factor in them. Take, for instance, the
| case Of Miss Letter, now the wife OF Inc
| Viceroy.of India, with a position 70 hoia
in the En~glish-speaking world which only
| Queen Victoria herself can rival. Few OF
! our American girls have studied SO hard,
or received so careful an education She
has been cultivated in all the graces OF
mind and body, equipped, in other words
for any role she might be called upon to
fill. One is sometimes inclined to ask
whether this can be said Of many Of our
young women?

tain Aunon, the minister OF marine,
has received a dispatch from Manila,
announcing a naval engagement be-
tween the Americans and the rebels,
in consequence of Admiral Dewey for
bidding the latter to fly the rebel flag
from their ships. The dispatch adds
that there were losses on both sides,
but that the Americans captured the
rebel ships. The scene OF the engage
ment is not stated, but it is supposed
to have been in Manila bay.
Washington, October 19.-As far as

ment, nor has General Otis, command
ing the United States troops at Manila,

munications he may have sent 10 the
war department. The dispatch Great

another portion of the Philippine
group on a mission of some importance
and the suggestion Is made officially
that ii may have been these vessels
which have been engaged In combat
with the insurgents.

The EnfscOpal Conference.

Washington, October 19-While no
time has been set for the final adjourn
ment of the Episcopal convention, the
attendance is beginning to fall off and
deputies are leaving for home. Atten-
ton was called to this in the house OF
deputies and delegates were urged to
get through the important questions
before the membership thins out.
The question of marriage and di-
vorce has not yet been considered in
the house of deputies and there are
evidences that the house Of bishops af-
ter having postponed the subject in
definitely may consider this action.
The article 6 of the constitution re-
lating to the establishment of mis-
sionary districts and article 2 relating
to a bishops exercise of his Offices out
side his diocese were agreed TO with
amendments made by the bishops.
The morning session of the house Of
bishops was important in bringing
about the adoption Of what is known
as the Huntington amendment look
! ing toward church unity. The amend
ment was adopted with minor cnangeS
as part of the canons instead of the
constitution.
At the afternoon session of the
house of deputies, concurrence was
given to the minor amendments made
| by the bishops in the so-called Hunt
| ington amendment, thus giving final
approval to this important step to-
I ward church unity. At the afternoon
session of the bishops final action was
taken on the establishment Of bishop
in Brazil. There has been a division
of sentiment as to whether this bishop
should be directly responsible TO the
church in the United States or should
be free from responsibility here. A
compromise was finally adopted by
which the church in Brazil will re-
| main directly responsible to the au-
| thorities here until 1t has advanced
TO the point of having three bishops
until at which time by the joint action
Of these three a national church in
Brazil Independent Of the United
States may be established.

New York, October BY the time
the first race was run at Morris park
today it had cleared off warm and
there was a good attendance. The
track was deep in mud, however.
George Keene was the favorite for the
fourth race, but a long delay of thirty
minutes at the post spoiled his chances
and the best he could do was third.
Cormorant won easily at odds of to

delay by jumping and circlins all over

JARVIS PREDICTS VICTORY
He Speaks I'm Hendersonviile-D
the Populists Will Vote With the
Democrats and Says Victory is As

Especial to Atlanta JournaL)
Hendersonville, n. c., October IL
Ex-Governor Jarvis spoke here to a
large and appreciative audience Sat-
urday night Leading democrats here
say his speech has had good effect, and
they now believe Henderson county
will give a small democratic majority
Henderson has for years given 800 to
400 republican majority.
Ex-Governor Jarvis furnishes your
correspondent with the following
statement today:
Il confidently believe the democrats
will carry the state Our greatest con-
test is to secure the legislature and to
elect our candidates for judges Of the
superior court. In this state the gov
ernOr has no veto power, and the
power of the legislature is only limit
ed by the constitution. Hence much
depends on the legislature. The party
that controls that controls the state.
Both parties are therefore putting forth
it's best efforts to control that body.
'It now looks like the democrats will
not only elect a majority of both
houses of the legislature, but that they
will elect the democratic candidates
for judges and a number of the con-
gressional candidates.
''I have been in the campaign since
the 4th of July and have been in nearly
all sections of the state. I find the
democrats everywhere active and en-
thusiastic. There were in the state in
1896 $4,000 populists, and [ think 10000
Of this number will vote the demo-
cratic ticket this year. Many old time
republicans will also vote with us,
while thousands of others will not
vote at all. With all these elements
favOrably to democracy, it seems to me
victory is certain and that the fusion
majority of 100000 will be wiped out.
The results of fusion in this state have
been so disastrous that thousands of
good men who voted for it two years
ago, repudiate it now and will vote to
put the state back into the hands of
the democratic party. Each day, in
my opinion, but adds to our certainty
of victory. The tide sets all the time
one way in the great campaign for
white supremacy in this state.''

Payers Property Business Men
Control the City and County.
WILMINGTON, N. c., October 18th, 1898.
SENATOR ]. c. PRITCHARD,
DEAR SIR: Since writing you on September
10th, events have taken place in this community
which necessitates some further explanation on my
part in order to put myself right before the COM
munity here and also to correct any mistaken i'm
preston may have made in your mind
For the sake of any fancied political advantage
| cannot afford to make e-sided presentation of
the situation in this City and County, and by naming
only the white officials and leaving out the colored
doubtless some advantage has been taken, and
false color given to the actual situation, to which
the business people and taxpayers regardless of
party have made serious objections.
AS matter of fact there are in this County
thrty-six colored magistrates, and coored Regis
ter of deeds and various other minor officials be-
sides some Presidential appontees, and the prop
erty owners payers and business men seriously
object to this state of affairs and there now exists
here the most intense feeling against any sort of
negro domination
There is greater feeling of unrest and uncer-
tainty about the maintenance of order than | have
ever seen and many, even the most conservative,
feel that race conflict is imminent, than which
nothing could be more disastrous not only to this
City and County, but to our party in the State, and
rather than have riot arson and bloodshed pre-
vail here, l. Republican though am, advise giving
up the local offices in this County, as there are no
National political principles involved in this contest.
had thought at first that it was merely the
usual political cry and the fight for the offices but
| am now convinced the feeling is much deeper
than this, as it pervades the whole community and
there seems to be settled determination on the
part of the property owners, business men and tax
payers that they will administer City and County
Government
Your Friend,

AMERICANS IN THE ORIENT.

HONGKONG, September 5.-There's
been hot time in the old town ever
since the arrival of the first of the
United States warships in port, and
the Olympia and Raleigh, which left
Saturday, did not depart with full
compliments of men. Frank May, an
old man, chief cook of the Olympia,
passing down Pedder's street, about /
O'Clock this morning, saw blue jack
ct named Michael Malloy lying with
his legs across the sidewalk. May
moved the drunken mans legs. This
aroused Malloy, who sprang up and
knocked the old man down. An In
dian policeman coming upon the scene
arrested Malloy for assault, and he
was also badly knocked about by the
blue jacket. At the magistracy today
Malloy said he must have been pretty
full of liquor. He did not know any
thing about the occurrences of the
morning. He was fined SIS for as
saulting the constable.

LOOKING AFTER THEIR JOBS,

The members of the Spanish civil
service in Manila are greatly concern
ed about their position and prospects,
as is only natural. In the Concrete
of the 2nd of September appeared a
notice calling a meeting of all con-
cerned, to be held the following day,
at the Spanish club. We do not find
any report of the meeting in the fol-
lowing issue, but there is a paragraph
written apparently after the meeting,
in which the hardship of the situation
and the supineness of the Madrid gov
eminent are commented on. Senior
Jaudenes, it appears, sent urgent tele-
grams to Madrid on the subject on the
goth, gath and 25th of August. but all
the reply he received was that the of
ficers were to remain at their posts
and further provision would be made.
