THE sKIRNusHING for position III
the great political battle Of next year
has begun. 1t is now questionable
whether the democratic guns are as
heavy as they appeared to be three
years ago. Tie rapid fire free silver
guns did effective work in many
states then, but were not heavy
enough to win III the great bate,
when opposed by the sound money
artillery of the republicans. Sncr
that time, it has been impossible 20
make improvements in the ordnance
used by the democrats. Some Ct
them were Of the opinion tlat the
rapid fire guns were not gearcd OK
sctly right, while others were IN
favor of abandoning them altogether
and taking up the old muzz'c leaders,
with the same ammunition that was
used so effectively four years before,
but thus class has evidently been
howled down for the present and the
advocates Of the rapid fire guns, load
ed with light chafy material, seem
10 be IN control.
The republicans on the other hand
have been manufacturing new artill-
cry for the fray. This las been al
together experimental. The new
guns. at first, seemed to be popular,
but upon close examination, especial
Iy with the aid of new lights first US
ed within the last yeai, the Older
leaders have been seen TO shake their
beads and It is very probable that all
the newly invented material will be
cast aside, and when the fight opens
they will use their old flint locks,
with the ssme sound money artillery
that proved so valuable in the East
ern States three years ago. Some de-
feets have been discovered in these
guns but with the Improvements
found necessary aud which they think
will render them stronger, they will
boldly enter the contest against the
rapid fire guns, which, IN reality, are
not in as good condition as they were
three years ago Such is the present
What Developments
will be made in the next year, the fu-
,ure will disclose.

TYPHOON AND TIDAL WAVE
Destroy Many Lives and Much Prop
erty in Japan.

Victoria, B. c., October 25.-Intelli-
gence is brought by the Rinsa Maru,
which has arrived here that the ty-
phoon through which the Express and
Senator passed, proved even more dis
astrous on land than on sea, In Toxic
and Yokohama it ragged with great
fierceness. Hundreds of houses were
wrecked in all districts, though the
storm seems to have been attended with
less loss of life than usual.
News of another disastrous catastrO-
phe comes from TagOnaura between
Numadzu and Suzukawa. About 1
o'clock on October 7th a tidal wave
swept over the town. Over 200 houses
were destroyed and more than 100 peo-
pie perished. The neighborhood of
Yosohiwa Meiwa wa converted into
an extensive lake. Great misery and
suffering prevail am -ng the afflicted
people.
A telegram from Miyazaki prefecture
also reports the occurrence of a tidal
wave at Mimitsumachi, on October 9th
and the destruction of many houses.
1t is believed that Russia is attempt
ing to secure naval station between

to buy land, but the Koreans are hold
ing out for a big price and it is be-
Heved she will secure it.

New York, October 24.-With Jeffries'

ed croquet with his trainers on the
lawn. This afternoon the champions
high spirits ineffected the groop and led
to practical jokes. Meanwhile, Jeffries
and Ryan prepared for the second af-
ternoon bout which proved to be a
wonderful exhibition of skill, although
Ryan's offensive tactics brought him
a blow in the Jaw THAT caused the claret
to flow. The boiler-maker is practic-
ing a block for Sharkey's side jab
and Ryan says the sailor will never
be able to land it. The physicians ser
vices were dispensed with today
Tom Sharkey was feeling particular
ly good today ait his training quarters
at New Dorp. He did plenty of work,
particularly in punching the bag and
on Armstrong and was as full of fight
after he had finished the days pro-
gramme as he was when he began.
Sharkey's trainers say there is not
the slightest danger that he will 'lose
edge by reason of the delay in the
BATTLE. They have been bringing him
on carefully and have taken extra pre-
cautions that he does not get too fine.

THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH.
Second Days Proceedings of their An
nual Convention.

Correspondence of The Messenger)
Wilson, n. c., October 25
The state convention of the Christian
church, which convened here yesterday,
continued its sittings today. All exer-
cises up to this point have been given
to the woman's board of missions.
The convention proper opened with
this mornings session. There are in
attendance now $50 delegates. These
came principally from eastern Carolina.
There are in attendance representa-
tives from almost every county, but
the strongest representation is from
eastern Carolina towns.
The growth of this denomination in
this section of the state during the past
few years has been almost phenome-
nal. Its achievements in Wilson are
very noticeable.
Rev. B. H. MILAN came here as pas
tor of the church two years ago. At
this time the church was considered
one of the weakest as to membership
in Wilson. They met in a very COM
mon wooden building. Today they have
membership of over 100 and church
which cost $4,000. To the pastor is
due a greater portion of the praise for
these achievements. The same pros
porous condition is noticed throughout
eastern Carolina.
The morning session was opened by
devotional exercises, conducted by Mr..
G. w. Howard. Professor Joseph Kin
sey, on the part of the Christian church
of Wilson, welcomed the convention.
The remainder of the morning exercises
were devoted to business matters.
Mr.. w. G.. Johnson made a very in
teresting talk on the achievements Of
the church in the state. a gratifying
increase both in membership and the
formation of new churches, was shown
by Mr.. Johnson. What the state is do
iEg for missions also formed a part of
this lecture. It was shown that the
Christian church is purely a mission
ary church. The missionary idea is the
foundation Of this church. To this idea
is attributed in a great measure this
rapid advance during the past few
years.
Mr. G.. L. Wharton, a missionary
from Calcutta, lectured before the con-
vention at night. His subject was
New India" Mr.. Wharton showed I'm
a very forcible way what religion was
doing for India His descriptions of the
methods used in bringing the gospel
before the people were very interesting.
