Cleveland Favors War Against War.

B">TnN, MASS, April 5.-Amung the
communications received by the United
Society of Christian En,lcavor recently
in connection with its proposition for Il
war against war. and peace by arbi-
tratiOn' are two from former United
States Presidents, Grover Cleveland
and Benjamin Harrison.
Ex-Prcsidcnt Cleveland wrote:
''Thc members and the friends of
the Society OF Christian Endcavor have
never entered upon AN undertaking -;
practical and 40 noble as he effort they
are now making to secure. an abandon
mcnt OF war az a means for the settle
ment of international differences; and
If there is any substance to the claim
that our institutions and the traits that
characterize us as Il people tend to
national elevation and Christianzation,
it is cmincntly proper that our country
should he in the lead in any movement
III the interests of peace"
EXPresident I!a,risoii'S letter says:
For myself, and i.uch more. for the
great body of its citizenship, express
the desire of America for peace with
the whole world. II would have been
vain to suggest the pulling down Of

Latest Sensation in South Carolina
Politics.

WA>iiINGToN, April S.-Whilc on
the subject OF Senatorial gossip tine
political breeze from South Carolina
watts this way the following sensation:
The report comes by II somewhat cir
cuitOus route and will not undertake
to vOuch for its authenticity. 1t is to
the effect that treaty OF peace has
been made between Senator Tillman
and his former political rival, Gen. Nj.
Z. Butler, and the programme is said
to be that Gen. Butler will cndeavor to
return to the Senate as the successor OF
the present Junior Senator, McLaurin,
at the expiration of the latters term.
My informant, who was in South Caro-
lima recently. and mingled with the
gressional excursion party, says there
is not the slightest possibility of de
feating Senator Tillman for re election,
and ut present there is feeling that
Senator McLaurin did not represent
the views OF Il majority of his party
when he voted with the Republicans
to ratify the Paris peace treaty. There
Is disposition to reorganize the Dem
Ocratic lines in South Carolina and
bring back into the regular Organiza-
ton Hicn like Gen. Butler, Hampton
and others, who have heretofore antag-
Onized the Tillman faction in the Pal
mettO State. 1t is claimed that Senator
Tillman has had some of the rough
edges worn off his nature while in the
Senate, and he is less Objectionable to
his former antagonists than he was Il
few years ago. Buffers popularity, to-
gethcr with his ability, would 90 IL long
way towards rendering him acceptable
to the followers OF Tillman.
1t is safe to assume in advance that
this statement will create IL large sized
row among the friends Of Senator Me
Laurin, who are said to have fond
ness for Gen. Butler. 1t is also likely
that there will be some vigorous denials
on both sides of the proposition. The
fact is the subject was quietly talked
about by friends of Senator Iillman
and also by friends of Gen. Butler
while the Congressional party was
.iourneying between Washington and
Havana. Whether the gossipping was
done with the consent of Senator Till
man and Gen. Butler am unable to
say, but it stands to reason the idea
did not originate without some foun-
dation, for the gentleman who gave
me the information was member of
the party. He was not actuated by
malicious motives, but simply related
to me the incident as piece Of inter
esting political gossip, which might be
of interest to South Carolinians.-Spc-
ci0l to News and Courier.

Buried Alive ~ Hours.

WALTHAM, MASS. April l7.-Cal
Athena. the young Greek, who was
hypnotized and buried alive OH Thurs
day night. was dug up from his living
grave ut y o'clock tonight. no worse
for his experience.
After apparently lying in Il dead
state for fOrty-cight hours, the rigid
form was taken from the massive box.
A large number of persons were present
to witness the taking of the living man
from his grave.
Athena, who was buried as test of
the power of hypnotic suggestion to
suspend the functions indefinitely with
out serious harm to the subject, is a
recent conner to this city His lypnO-
tizer is an officer who has seen service
with the volunteers. Lieut.. James JEFF
frey.
1t is said that the temptation of win
ming 81 900 if he submitted to the test
was the motive of the Greek in permit
ting himself t., be buried, rather than
any special zeal i'll the cause of science.
His nervous temperament ana susctp-
tiblc nature made him an ideal subject
for Il mcsncrist.
The authorities consented to the trial
only OH condition that precautions be-
taken to prevent the Greek from being
smOthcred in his living grave. They
demanded that the grave should be fit :
ted with Il tube SO that Athcn0 could
breathe freely and communicate with
those above ground should he awaken.
\ long wooden tube was placed direct
~ above his face, the other end extend
ing some feet above the ground. Then
an electric light bulb was placed di-
rcctly above the young mans face. a
normal sleeper could not endure the
glare for ten minutes, but the Greek :
eyclashes did not even quivcr in I'LL the
hours he slept.-Nrm York Press.

Georgia Baptists Startled.

SAVANNAH, GA, April Sin the
| Georgia State Baptist convention to-
day George iEiilyer, ex-mayor of At
lanta, and formerly OH the bench of
the superior court, presented report
from the committee OH crime and
lynchings.
After reading the report the Judge
gave some startling figures upon the
Increase OF crime, urging the consider
alton of the question upon the church,
and suggesting that us the law was
slow the legislative body he appealed
to to note the facts and figures, to urge
action upon that body, reminding them
of the army of voters presenting the
appeal.
| Judge Hillycr said that i'll the United
States there were more homicides than
in Scotland. England and Prussia. The
matter had been brought before the
bar association in 1894 and 1896. In 1894
there were 5000 hOmicides in the
United States and in 1896 there were
10000. In the past year more homi-
cides were committed in the United
States than there were killed in Cuba,
and more than fell ut Gettysburg or in
the Philippines. People were losing
confidence in the laws slowness and
lack OF interest in the public mind.
The press has been remarkably quick
i'll bringing the matter to tile attention
of the public, but the ease with which
verdicts are set aside in the court room
a n !, sut,
criminals escape punishment have
brought much Of this about. The
amount of crime is increasing and it
seems that the criminal is the only one
that has any rights. The people lose
confidence in the effectiveness of the
law to punish criminals. Hence the
increase in lynching.
Judge lIillyer said that, although he
had twice brought this matter before
the bar association, they had taken no
action. He now appealed from the bar
to the church to aid in correcting this
great evil.
The resolutions call upon the lcgisla-
ture to so amend the code of criminal
procedure and enlarge the powers of
the courts rs to let all men know that
the law is willing and able to do inn
mediate and thorough Justice in every
case. They assert that lynchings arc
result of distrust in the prOmptness
and efficiency of the legal machinery.
The convention came to an end to-
day, after selecting Griffin as the place
for the meeting next year. 1t was
agreed, previous to the adjournment
to revive this Georgia Baptist Historical
society, and DIR. Marshall, of Sanders
vile, was elected president of it, with
DR.. Hugh Bernard of Mercer, sccre-
tary. Rev. B. F.. Riley, delivered an
an address on the history Of the dcnom-
inatiOn. Judge IIillycr then presented
strong and striking report and reso-
lutions from the committee on crime
and lynching. which were adopted.
This afternoon the members of the
convention enjoyed a trip down to the
scashOre ut Tybce.

Good Advice.

The counsel, Go South, Young Man
has been proffered often by shrewd
northern observers Of the opportunities
which are presented III this section, but
1T has specially apt wisdom now that
there is so much talk about the possi-
bilities of making fortunes in our new
possessions and in Cuba. Leslie's
Weekly therefore gives most excellent
advice when it says:
"More money has been made in the
Southern States in the last twenty
years than will be made in tho next
fifty years in Cubn, Porto Rico or the
Philippines, and the chance for money
making in the South have OILY COM
menced. The price of iron for the
world is now made mt Birmingham,
Ala, and that city will shortly make
the worlds price Of steel. The South's
industrial evolution, which began with
the development of it's iron includes
machine shops and factories, steel
plants and hardware factories. The
5000 new industries which have sprung
up during the past year include fertili-
zerS and phosphate works, woodwork
ing factories, furniture, vehicle. agri-
cultural ami miscellaneous works, tex
tile, -four and cotton seed oil mills, gas
and waterwOrks, telephone systems,
electric light and power and ice and
cold storage plants, cannerics and hun
dreds Of miscellaneous plants. Nearly
every Southern State has increased it's
railroad mileage during the past year,
and every southern harbor has strong
ly increased its export trade. e
II you seek new fields of opportunity,
go South, young man"
The citizen of the North and West
who comes South with money or brains
and ambition will make far safer in
vcstmcnt than he who seeks to improve
his estate by.gOing to Cuba. Porto Rico
or the Philippines. Not only are the
conditions of life here far more at
tractive but the chances for making
money are more numerous and sup
ported by far better probabilities of
success.
Leslie's Weekly has not overstated
the relative inducements which the
South offers.
