AT the First Presbyterian church last
evening Rev. e. y. Groeneveld preached
an eloquent sermon to a crowded house
| on the text: '.Ieehold I come quickly.
Hold that fast which thou hast that no
man take thy clown" The clergyman
spoke of the changes worked by time
which cannot be stopped. Time is car
rying us on resistlessly to lifes goal.
Life is voyage and the voyagers are
borne onward as resstlessly as though
crossing the ocean on one of the big
liners. God does not wilfully affiict.
Troubles and pain are sent for our good.
We are on the Threshold of another
year. Be steadfast, stand fast and hold
fast. The genuine Christian life is no
sinecure. The Christian must not shirk
from CARRYING the burdens ana reSp0l-
sibilities of this life. Temptation must
be expected. Sorrows will come even
this year. In China it is the custom to
pay all debts at the beginning of the
new year. Debt is duty. We have
debt of sins. Let the debt be wiped out
at the start of the new year At the be-
ginning of a new year, let us see that
we are prepared for, the year Hold fast
to the bible this year Hold fast to
communion with the father The pill
grim should hold fast to his staff. which
is faith 1nfidelity is the tendency of
the time. To say that you only believe
what your senses teach you is to place
you on a level with the lower animals.
Hold fast to the faith. Life in eternity
will be just what we make it here. The
past years book shows blots. The new
year is before us with pages clean and
fair. What will we make of it?

The republicans hoped to gain
congressional seat in Bland's old
district in Missouri by getting the
populists to put up an independ-
ticket. But they only polled 900
votes, and the democrats elect
their man by an increased plural

cy in the Philippines was made

INTEREST IN THE GARNER
CASE.

4 gentleman from Pike county
says the people of Pike are great
ly stirred up over the Garner trial
for the killing of Scott Causey
and his vile about a year ago.
As already stated in the Pieay.
une, Garner was found guilty OF
characterization at the first trial,
and the supreme court reversed
the case and remanded il for new
trial, and last Tuesday Garner
was acquitted of the charge Of
killing Mrs. Causey. His flight
with the officers to this city, after
being remanded TO jail to be tried
for the killing Of Scott Cauaey
was detailed in these dispatches
last night.
The gentleman above referred
to, who did not caro- TO have his
name published, says the verdict
seemed to be unsatisfactory TO the
people generally, who believe
that there was a miscarriage OF
justice.
Some good people in the coun-
ty, however, have doubts as 10
the guilt of Garner, based per.
haps upon the unreliability Of
some Of the witnesses for the
state. The jury must have shared
this belief. In fact, he says, the
jury, by their verdict, clearly dis.
believed some Of the principal
Witnesses for the state. II is the
belief Of the gentleman quoted,
that on account Of the strong
feeling against Garner in his
neighborhood, it would be unsafe
for him to return there even If he
is finally acquitted, as he believes
he will be, for the reason that he
will be lynched in short order.
He says the safest thing Garner
could do, if acquitted, will be to
take the first daylight train and
never return.
This gentleman said another
view held by some people, is that
the real assassin has not yet been
tried, but that he will be discoy.
cred and brought TO justice, and
that there is probably more than
one person implicated.
The sination was horrible;
as revolving as ever occurred any
where. On beautiful Sunday
morning, Scott Causey was shot
to death, while sitting in his own
house reading newspaper. The
wife was cooking dinner, the as
sassin, who probably did not 20
there TO kill her, in fact, sup
posed, perhaps, she was at
church, proceeding upon the idea
that dead persons tell no tales,
shot her breast off when she ran
out screaming.
The gentleman quoted express
ed the hope that the real assassin,
whoever he ia, will be legally
hanged, and that the county would
be spared a lynching. jackson

Speaking of factions, what
is the matter with the republican
party of Mississippi? There is
now Lynch faction, a Hill fac
ton, a "lily white" faction, an
anti lily white" faction and a
prospect for more. The factional
movement, however, cannot be
carried much further without ex-
hausting the supply ofmaterial.-

pleasure of entering this building,
but delight in spending idle mo-
ments in the parks and on the
lawns near by. ! love to be alone
in the groves near the Capitol and
recall the lessons Of many brill

as Washington. Prentiss, Web

These men did their part toward
making this nation what it is to-
day.
The White House is not adorn-
