MAY Nor REBUILD-Railroadm men OF
New York have been discussing with
great interest the possibility that Gal
weston may be rebuilt on different
site less liable to onslaughts Of the
Gulf Of Mexico than the fiat sand
island which has twice been de-
nuded by wind and wave. It was ru-
mored that the Southern Pacific COM
pany would head a movement to build
the city on a spot forty miles to the
southwest of its present location at
the mouth Of the Brazos river But
representatives Of the railway system,
which connected Galveston with the
outside world before the occurrence of
the present disaster, say that her res
idents will build on the same sand is-
land in spite Of the terrible experien-
ces. They believe that Galveston, in
jured financially though her citizens
have been, will be rebuilt by her citi-
zens without the aid Of outside capital

Rev. ]. Barr Harris writes to tn
Southern Christian Advocate Of Sep
tember 13, as follows: We have just
closed our sixth meeting on the Rock
Hill circuit. If we understand the term
reyiyals, these have all been genuine
revivals. Almost the entire member
ship Of the church has been stirred tc
q greater earnestness and activity fol
the church and Christ, and the ingath-
ering of souls has been great. During
the year 376 persons have united with
the church. Some have come to us by
certificate; but by far the greater num-
ber have joined on profession OF saw
ing faith in Christ. Some whose names
we have enrolled, have transferred tc
the church Triumphant. The church SER
vices are all we'll attended and a large
per cent! of the membership conduc,
worship in their homes morning ano
night. AS a result of our first meeting
we have built in connection with Lau-
rel Street church three rooms, two Of
which we use for reading rooms. The
third Is supplied with tables and writ.
ing materials. The rooms are hand
somely furnished with necessary con-
veiences for reading. On the shelves
. ano tables is found good books, maga'
zines and papers, secular and religious
Tlase rooms are kept open in the day
for women and at night Ior men. We
believe in formation and information
rather than reformation. From our sec.
ond meeting, which was held in lit
tie room above store, we planned the
erection Of a church at the Manches-
ter mill. We have raised $500 in cash
and have some Of the lumber on the
ground. We hope to begin the erection
of a $1,500 building. This Is large
field; five cotton factories, one buggy
factory and three country congrega-
tions furnish work enough for two men
We are not doing it well, but the best
we can.

ceived by Senator Scott yesterday.

what he intended TO do, but the tone OF
the letter showed he desired Senator
