made and most of the children departed
on the o'clock boat. Those who left on
the o'clock boat were obliged to stop at
San Anselmo until $3.50.
Each child was provided with a lunch,
and the arrival of the noon hour was re-
garded as one of the principal events of
the "trip During the day games of ali
descriptions were played and many of the
merrymakers carried home valuable
prizes the result of their superiority in
the contests. Running races and all ath-
letic sports composed a large part of the
programme.
The picnic was given under the aus
pices of the Sabbath-School Association
of the Presbytery of San Francisco and
was under the direct supervision of a
committee headed by Rev. R. w. Rey-
nolds, the pastor of Lebanon Presbyterian

Ira NJ. Condit superintendent of the Pres

It is a shame for him to quote such figures.
They do the other denominations injustice
and misrepresent US before the public. 1t is
no wonder that we should feel, indignant. He
took any figures he could get in order to make
his speech sound well before his audience.
Where he got his data l do not know. but
am certain that it is wrong. He has proba-
bly, taken some returns from one particular
section where the Baptsts have been very sue
cessful and has distorted the case so that the
other denominations should appear to disad-
vantage.
Why. the idea of giving such figures. Any
one would Judge from them that the Presby

land where they were constantly under
fire Of Federal gunboats When the
menaced assault upon Charleston was
at an end the command returned to Will
mngton.
General Gilmore landed on Morris
Island early In July, 1863, and began his
persistent siege of Charleston. Cling
mans brigade, to which Col. Shaw's
regiment was attached, was ordered to
its defence. arriving in that city July
18th. From then to the 9th day OF
December, when he was ordered to
Petersburg, Col. Shaw was almost con-
stantly under fire. He served faithfully
on James Island, Morris Island, Sulli-
vans Island, i'll Batteries Wagner, Gregg
and Fort Moultri. In July, August
and September the intolerabie heat of
the sun and the distress of the can
nonading of the enemy converted his
camp into a real Tartarus.
Later in the fall he was in camp on
Sullivan's Island when President Davis
made his tour of inspection. When
the President arrived in Charleston or
ders were sent to Sullivan's Island
TO prepare the troops for review. Col.
Shaw was in command of the brigade
and General Clingman of the island.
Several thousand troops We're in line
when the President with his escort rode
M to Col. Shaw, who was standing IN
front of his brigade. The Colonel was
defercntial to the commander in chief,
but when the hand was offered in recog-
milton of an old acquaintanceship that
begun in Congress, Colonel Shaw de-
clincd to take it, and the President rode
away. This incident illustrated the
character of the man who was to re-
ceive promotion if at ali from the
sighted functionary. From Charleston
the Eighth regiment went to Peters
burg-thence to North Carolina to form
in part an expedition against Newbern.
In the early twilight of the morn on
the 18th day of February, 1864, Col
onel Shaw was suddenly slain by a
stray bullet from the enemy near
Bachelors creek, the ball entering the
cheek and passing out behind the ear.
Thus died as he had lived the Chevalier
Ravard of the Confederate cause, with
ont a stain upon his sword, wise in
delheration, brave in action. Perhaps
no ADLER exponent of our theory OF
government could be found; no more
eloquent defender of the constitutional
rights ana institutions Of the South. In
the Congress of the United States he
felt the dignity of his position because
he knew the fathers designed it to be
the most permanent and stable body I'M
der the government; the equal repre-
sentative of that portion of sovereignty
which the people chose to leave in the
several States; constant and vigilant
check upon the one hand to the en-
croachments of executive power, and
on the other to the rapid changes of
popular opinion.

During the winter of 1897 Mr.. James
Reed, one of the leading citizens and
merchants of Clay, Clay county, w. Va,
struck his leg against cake of ice
in such a manner as to bruise it Sc
verely. 1t became very much swollen
and panied him so badly that he could
not walk without the aid of crutches.
He was treated by physicians, also
used several kinds of liniment and
two and half gallons OF whiskey in
bathing 1t, but nothing gave any relief
until he began using Chamberlain s
Pain Balm. This brought almost a
complete cure in a weeks time and
he believes that had he not used this
remedy his leg would have had to be
anlputated. Pain Balm is unequaled
for sprains, bruises and rheumatism.
