John P. GREEN, D. D., NEW PRESIDENT.

The long controversy, which has agi-
tated. tho BaptisSs over tho Southern
Baptist Theological Seminary for two
years. terminated last weok at l. Uouisvlle,
Ky.f by tho acceptance by the Board of
Trustees of tho resignation of w. II.
Whitsit, D. D., tho President of the
Seminary. John P. Green, ID. d., who is
now President of William Jowol College
of Missouri, was elected to fill tho va
cancy occasioned by DR.. Whitsit's resig-
nation. DR.. Green is one of tho first
Eaptists in tho convention and n
man Of much ability and learning. 1t is
to be hoped that this change will check
tho feeling that has been indulged i'll
ovor the Seminary. And wo believe it
will If tho denominational p.pcrs will
refrain from unfavorable comment. We
regret that it is already being said that
the election Of DR.. Green is q victory for
the partisans of DR.. Whitsit. IL does
seem that there has been sufficient adj
verse criticism to satisfy all. DR.. Green
should receive the earnest Christian
support of tho whole denomination.

Women Should Know It.

Many women suffer untold agony and
misery because tho nature of their dis
ease is not correctly understood. Thoy
have boon led to believe that womb tro,i-
bio or female weakness of some sort is
responsible for tho many ills that bcset
wOmanlind.
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache,
puffy or dark circles under tho owes,
rheumatsm, q dragging pain or dull
ache in tho back, weakness or bearing
down sensation, profuse or scanty supply
of urine, with strong odor, frequent de-
sire TO pass it, with scalding or burning
sensation, sediment in il after standing
in bottle or common glass for twcnty-fouI
hours, arc signs of kidney and bladder
trouble.
Tho above symptoms are often attrib-
utcd by tho patient herself or by hor
physician to fcmalo weakness or womb
trouble. Hence so many TAIL to obtain
relief, because they arc treating, not tho
discnse itself, but a reflection of tho pri
mary cause, which is kidney trouble.
In fact, women rs well as mon arc
made miserable with kidney and bladder
trouble, and both need tho same remedy,
Dr. kilmer's Swamp Root is the great
discover of tho eminent kidney and
bladder specialist, and is easy to got at
any drug otoIo for fifty cents or one dol

Another Big Cotton Mill for Anderson.

A meeting was held here ono night last

ing tho erection of q mill worth not less

This in no way intcrfercs with tho
schome already started to build a second

to furnish aafo and profitable invest
mcnt for money with tho assurance of

10000 was subscribed i'm few minutes.
and 1t is believed that tho whole amount,
required can be raised. Col. Orr Is to be
tho President of tho now mill, and tho

SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION.

The Southern Baptist Convention, ono
of tho largest religious bodies of tho
world, which met in Louisville, Ky,
last week, has just adjourned. We arc
happy to note that it. was harmonious
and pleasant and feel that much good
was accomplished for the cause of Chris
tianity. Tho attendance of delegates
was 773, not as many as usual. EX-Gov.
w. j. Northcn, of Georgia, was elected
president of the convention, and EX-
Gov Eagle, Of Arkansas, II. G. Bucknor,
of Texas, DR.. f. II. Kerfoot, of Ken
tucky, and Charles l.. Cuckc, of Vir-
ginia, were elected vice presidents, and
Drs. Lansing Burrows and O. Il. Greg
ory were reelected secretaries. Dr..
Carter II. Jones delivered an address of
welcome and it was responded to by IL.
S. Mallory, of Alabama. The session
was profitable ono and was enjoyed by
all. The disputes, which have, for seve-
raj sessions, threatened to disturb the
quiet Of tho Baptists of the South, were
settled and peace seems at last to rest
on and pervado the whole Southland.
The foreign and home mission boards
report that all of their obligations have
been met and they arc out Of debt. The
convention seems to have been more
chan usually devoid of speech making,
and one of work and good feeling. Tho
next session of the convention will be
held at Hot Springs, Arkansas.

DlSPENSARY WHITEWASHED.

People who read the newspapers often
SEQ accounts of institutions, both State
and national, being whtcwashcd. a
great deal has been written recently
about the war investigating committee
whitewashing the management of the
war with Spain, and even "embalmed
beef,' it matters not how black and rot
ten, has been coated white, and many
found to swear it was sound and healthy.
But all these things happened safe
distance from Walhalla, and as VIC only
read Of them in the newspapers, many
of lis did not know whether they were
so or not, and doubted if there ever was
any canned beef anyhow, or whether
our army boys ever saw beef of any kind
while fighting the Dons. But we have
at last seen a big State institution in the
State of South Carolina whitewashcd-
literally and truly whitcwashcd-right
under our own eyes, and that, too, right
here in tho town of Walhalla--thc fam
Gus capital of Oconce county. We would
motive could not have believed it., had
not our own eyes have bchcld it, for it
has not been thought to be in keeping
with tho ideas of reform to whitcwash
anything. But We can no longer be de-
ceived, neither can tho people Of Oconcc
bo deceived. if they will only como to
Walhalla and SEQ how nicely our cs-
tecmcd, popular, moral and temperance
institution has been literally white
washed by Walhalla's watchful, progress
sive and entcrprising dispenser, Mr.. II.
B. Schroeder AS We walked down Main
street Wednesday afternoon, we chancod
to see Uncle Stcpnoy Green dcftly plying
tho whitewash brush on the outside Of
the house on the corner of Main and
TugaloO streets, belonging to every man,
woman and child in OcOnec county. We
halted momcntarily to inquire Of Uncle
Stepney what ho was doing, when ho
gently reminded us that if any institu-
tun in South Carolina over needed
whiIcwashing the nispensary certainly
did. and worked right on, rs much as to
say the sooner the job was done
the better. We gavo it up. and
passed on a wiser, if not sad
der man, as wc reflected on the depths of
moral philosophy and wise statesman
ship wrapped up in this laconic reply.
But, however, this way be, still the fact
remains that Uncle Stcpncy has literally
whitewashed tho disprnsary in Walhalla.
Where is there any other colorcd man
who has done so much for the good of
his State? Whitcwash is cheap, hut it
takes a master hand to apply it to as big
q State institution as South Carolina's
disponsary.
