The Pioneer Social.

Through unforeseen events
the Pioneer Social at the Baptist
church last night was not favor
ed by some of the pioneers that
had been expected. Notwithstand-
ing this fact, however, the program
afforded treat not only to the
Baptists, but to all who were pres
ent, as the early history of not
only the Baptist denomination in
this place, but that of general
nature as well, was graphically
rendered.
1t developed that the early his
tory of the Baptist church in this
vicinity was centered at Wetmore
rather than at Florence, and along
this line the audience was enter
tanned by Pioneers Sutton of Wet
more and Dyer of Augu ia. Mrs
Parker of Canon City added points
of interest regarding the church
at that place, while Father An
drews" Mrs. Mary McCandless'
father, gave an account of CROSSING
the plains many years ago.
Mrs. Sarah Mcdonald related
incidents in connection with the
early church at Rockville and Will
liamsburg
t. E. Spencer gave an extended
general history of the settlement
and growth of Florence, and many
incidents in the early struggles of
the Baptist denomination in this
place.
Something of the settlement of
Iowa and the incidents attending
pioneer life in that state were given
by Mrs. Mary Gill.
Altogether the meeting was a
very interesting and at the same
time instructive event. 1t served
also as reunion of many of the
older members of the church. 1t

Thousands are Starving.
UNITED STATES GIVES AID.

New York, August IA dis
patch to the Evening journal from
its correspondent at Ponce says
that it is now plain that Ponce
was the greatest sufferer from
Tuesdays hurricane. The rivers
Portuguese and Cauas flowed thro'
the streets, drowning hundreds of
people Five hundred bodies have
already been recovered.
An eye witness ON the top of a

of men, women and children float
ing through the streets on the

fear and unable to render any as
sistance.
The towns of Tallaboa and Juan

large church edifce being left
standing,

sand people lost their lives, and it
is feared that the number of deaths
in this hurricane will far exceed
that caused by the storm thirty
two years ago.
There is not drop of drinking
water in Ponce as all the cisterns
are filled with sea water, and the
stencil from the dead bodies is ter
rible. The suffering of the people
is beyond the power of pen to
write. There is absolutely no
food in the town and starvation is
threatening hundreds.
Washington, August 11.-Sec-
rotary of War Root this morning
received cablegram from Cover
nor Davis, military governor of the
Island of Porto Rico saying that
as result of Tuesdays hurricane
over hundred thousand people

the crops were destroyed. Cover
nor Davis suggests that Secretary
Root call for subscriptions from
citizens of the United States of
food and clothing.
Late this afternoon another dis
patch was received at the war de-
partment confirming the report
telegraphed to the New York Ev
ening journal.
This afternoon Secretary Root
issued cali to the Mayors of all
cities having population of over
$1,000, asking them to solicit sub
scription of money, clothing and
food for the relief of our brethren
in Porto Rico. Secretary Root
points out that these people are
now American subjects, and that
they deserve our good will and ma
terial support at our hands.
