When the late George S. TAYLOR died

the distribution of his estate were well
known by his wife and children. and

was named as administrator. The estate
was valued at 500. 900 and bond in the
sum Of $4,000 was given, each bonds
man qualifying in double the amount
subscribed. The reality of the deceased
amounted to only $l43J this being due to
the division of his broad acres among his
children on Christmas last. Mr.. Ia, lor

having his estate adjudicated in court,

Recently his will was found and while

was strictly on the lines that his heirs
had arranged to carry out, and they feel
much self satisfaction in finding the doc

The arrest of young Powell and Me-
Ginnis last week, and especially in re-
spect to the former, appears very much
like an outrage. The very worst that
could be said against McGinnis was that
it was mistake in judgement in taking

him, but Powell appears to be entirely in

like malicious persecution. Such matters

A GREAT ADDRESS.
THE BLIND BOY ORATOR THRILLS HIS
AUDIENCE.

Monday night Mr.. Joe NJ. Ramsay
the blind boy orator and Epworth Lea.
que organizer, addressed a good audi
once in the Methodist church. He /.
from the Tennessee Conference, and
his work is the general organization o1
Epworth Leagues In the Methodist
churches which haye no Leagues, and
the helping OF those already organized
As he puts it, "organizlny new League
and doctorlng sick ones"
Rev. O. Ryder, in appropriate re-
marks, introduced the speaker and be-
spoke for him the attention of the au.
dience, and from the first word to the
closing sentence OF his address, he held
the closest attention of the entire au
dience.
CHOW to organize an Epworth League
and how to make it co." was his
theme. He was perfectly a: home with
his subject and for more than an hour
spoke with pathos and power seldom
excelled by speakers OF many more
years and OF much more experience
His plain, practical plans OF work were
happily emphasized by apt illustrations
and his audience was alternately NOV.
ed from laughter to solemn mood as
he played upon their feeling as only a
master OF speech can.
MIR. Ramsay is really a wonder. Be
coming afflicted with blindness at the
age OF fourteen, he has not grown any
since, except little in weight. ~ His
figure and stature and face and voice
are all of boy. His voice at first seem
ed a little muffied but before he had
spoken more than a few minutes his
audience forgot that and attended only
to what he was saying and with what
characteristic force he said it.
At times in climax his voice be-
came shrilly clear and sent forth the
truth with convincing power. He
spoke very rapidly and with an earn.
estness that always shows itself in front
of strong convictions.
His address was greatly enjoyed by
all who heard it, and all who heard
were much benefited regardless of de-
nomination or creed.
Mr.. Ramsay was country boy in
Tennessee, and after the first burst
of despair which followed the sudden
and sad affliction, he betook himself to
making harness for time, and did it
we'll.
Later he determined to follow the
profession of Law, but God seemed to
order his powers and gifts in another di
rection ; and for four years he has been
in the Epworth League work and has
labored in many of the Southern
states.
He is truly boy of wonderful pow
or, desperately in earnest in his work ,
is doing great good, and is followed by
the benediction of ali w!L.o ace aud hear
