Reports on Educational Institutions.
The Church Paper The Orphans.
Home.

Charlotte, N. c., October IA spe-
cial from Asheville to The Observer,
says that today's session Of the Pres
byterian synod was devoted mainly to
educational matters.
The committee to report On the o n
dition of Peace institute reported that
the controlling interest in the institute
has been purchased by Professor Din
widdie, which is assurance that it will
remain under Presbyterian control, a
source of much qualification to h sy-
nod.
Davidson college was reported as be-
ing in a growing condition.
The four educational institutions fol
women had a successful and prosper
Gus year.
DR.. Vardell, of Red Springs semi
nary, spoke in behal of the young wo-
men who are studying to be foreign
missionaries.
Speaking OF the status of The Pres
byterian Standard. Rev. A. j.: McEi
way, it's editor, said it's great difficulty
has been to compete with rival papers,
chiefly The Christian Observer. Many
were taking The Christian Observer
and not their home paper. The Pres
byterian Standard at present is about
paying expenses, but there is a debt OF
81, 900.
A committee was appointed to re-
port on the matter.
The report of the regents of the or
phans' home was hen read by DIR.
Rumple. The receipts were $S,049 and
the disbursements 20 cents less. 1t was
recommended hat an immediate con-
tribution be made in the churches for
this cause, in view of the low financial
condition.
The committee on selecting a time fol-
the meeting of the next synod report
ed that it had selected Tuesday, No
vember 18th as the date. The date
was adopted by the synod.

ANOTHER UTTER FAILURE.
To Get the Yachts to Sea for the Cul
Race.

New York, October ia blanket of
fog over the course and the utter alb
sence of wind caused the fifth succes-
sive fizzle when another attempt was
made today to sail the first Of the Co
lumbia-Shamrock series for the inter-
national trophy. The yachts will try
again tomorrow. The repeated failures
have had a most discouraging effect on
the general public, and there was a
great falling off in the number of eX-
cursion boats, as we'll as the number
of their passengers, when the fleet
gathered around Sandy Hook lightsh1p
today at the time set for the start.
The repeated fukes off Sandy Hook
have led to some agitation for a change
of the course to Newport, where there
is usually a breeze, or to Marblehead,
off the Massachusetts coast, where no
difficulty would be experienced in get
ting plenty of wind. The regatta COM
mittee argue that this sort of weather
cannot last at this time of the year..

Hiram S. Maxim Says they are Alike in
Fighting Qualities.

London, October 12-Hiram S. Maxim
in the course of an interview today,
said: 80 far as I am aware, the
Beers possess thirty Maxims, but the
British need not fear the Boer artillery,
which has always proved a source of
weakness, rather than strength to the
burghers."
After warmly approving armored
ain and pointing out how useful
they had been to the Americans in the
Philippines, he went on to say: 1.-THE
Beers remind me Of the people of the
southern states of the American union.
They are excellent marksmen and as
good fighters as can be found anywhere
in the world. None ever fought better
than the southerners, and yet they lost.
Just so will England vanquish the
Beers. If you want to know what the
English speaking races can do, look
across the Atlantic and see what Amer
lea. has DONE"
