Our protracted meeting at Topisaw
church will begin the 4th Sunday in
August. Pastor Almand. secures his
own help in the meeting.
Prof. Sydney Williams, of the vii.
liams Photo Co., of Edgar, is at home
ON rest, after quite long absence
on professional business.
The hot weather down here is be-
yond our power to describe, except by
the use of scientific inventions, and
that is not like experience.
We had some good showers of rain
Monday at Edgar, and a splendid rain
just south which cooled us down a
little and revived crops some.
Protracted meetings are being held
now on all sides of us, far and near,
good order and success are had, except
further down south we hear of some
ugly things.

In dealing with the collection OF du-
ties. in either case, such as the De
Lima case, the court decided that after
the ratification Of the treaty with
Spain the president had no power to
impose a tariff on goods coming from

The court also held that duties collect
ed on goods going into Porto Rico be-
fore the ratification OF the treaty with

were imposed by the military branch

 Tt stamped the royal seal upon a nations welcome. There could have been no more fortunate suggestion, at the outset of this remarkable visit, Of the true spirit in which American bus iness rivalry is regarded in Great Britain.
 The paper advocates, as one of the best means of meeting this friendly rivalry. that British employers and workmen alike should visit the United States and observe for themselves American business methods; and It de- clares that the fact of the two coun- tries being indispensable to each other makes all plans of European industrial coalition against the United States an idle dream so far as any British par ticipation is concerned.

STRUCK BY A STORM
Three Fishing Boats Lost of Florida
 Coast

CHARLESTON, s. C.-Fifteen fish ermen are supposed to have been drowned in a wild squall Friday after noon. while the mosquito fleet of fish ing boats was anchored of the fishing patches" The eight boats fishing at time were scattered to the four winds but all save three were accounted for tonight. The missing boats were the Anna Julia. the Messenger Boy and the Knife. There were fifteen men In the three boats.
 When the supposed disaster was re- ported the revenue cutter Forward went to sea and skirted for thirty miles around the lightship, but came back with the report that not sign of life or a disabled boat could be seen. All hope for the safety of the fishermen was abandoned at dark today. when the cutter got into port. It was thought during the day that the boats had d-ifted to places of shelter. but the failure of the government vessel to find a trace of their whereabouts con- vinced the crowd of watchers on the wharves that the men are dead.
 Captain Joe Watkins of the Messen- ger Boy is the only white skipper supposed to have perished.
