HENDRIX COLLEGE.
Interesting Commencement Ex-
 ercises at That Institution.

ercises at That Institution.
 Higher excellence has hardly ever been attained in a commence ment sermon for Hendrix than in the one delivered by Rev. w. F. Thompson, of Little Rock, in this city on last Sunday morning. It was a discourse of profound wis dom and matchless eloquence. ItI showed deep thought and much labor in its preparation, but 1t flowed smoothly from the lips oi this learned divine. While we have made wonderful progress ill these latter days he showed that we could never Have all the truth, and he exhorted all to be ever on 1 the alert for the truth and to ac cept it from any source. The text was: Always learning, never com l ing to a knowledge of the truth.
 Rev 0. F. Goddard preached the Y. NJ. C. A. sermon to a large and appreciate audience Sunday night from Luke 12, 56, "Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this timer" His sermon was characteristic of the painstaking student that he showed himself to be while i'll Hendrix, It was characteristic of the successful preacher that he has shown him self to be, as evidenced by the fact that he is filling one of the best pu1pits of Arkansas. His sermon was full of helpful suggestions to young men.
 The essay contests took place Monday morning at the college in the presence of large asselnblage of visitors, Conway people and stu dents. The contestants and their subjects were as follows:
 Preparatory; subject, Benjamin Franklin" l.. H, Cook, Misses G1ennie Miles and Etta Robins.
 Collegiate; subject, "Poe's place in American Literature: $. $. Jeffries, Miss Kinney, s. F. Nc Connel1 F. E. Robins.
 Many of these essays were gems and they deserve to rank high in annals of college literature.
 The annual debate between rep resentatives of the Harlan and Franklin societies was held Mon day night. The question, Re solved, that municipal ownership is the solution of the light problem in American cities, was ably dis cussed. Each speaker presented a strong line of argument and each delivered his production ill all elo- quent manner. R. D. Wynn, J. | D. Dunaway and A. P. Reynolds, the Franklin society, debated the affirmative side of the question, T. o. Summers, J. B. Cox and w. Townsend being on the negative.
 The program was interspersed ! with some very enjoyable music. 1 Miss Glennie Miles sang two solos, the Conway male quartette sang, Messrs. William and Clifton Moose | played cornet and violin duet and 1 little Miss Theresa Frauenthal a | violin solo.

Girls Pummel Insulters.

CUMBERLAND, MD, August 15.-Judge
WolfOr's court was the scene OF trial
this afternoon growing out of a scnsa
tional fight in which two sisters figured
They were Edna and Laura McAvee, aged
Is and 16 respectively. The girls were
walking along the street in the southern
part of the city, followed by crowd OF
young men, two of whom, Floyd Kline
and Raymond Souders, made alleged in
sulting remarks about Miss Edna. The
girls overheard them and they resented
them in way that the young men will
long remember Turning quickly about
Laura rushed upon Kline and planting
her fist under his nose demanded that he
retract the statement lie had made about
her sister. He refused to do so and she
Struck him blow square in the face that
sent him staggering and which she fol-
lowed up repeatedly, pummelling him in
the face Meantime Edna had tackled
Souders, but got the worst of the bout, as
he struck her a blow that felled her.
Quickly regaining her feet, she made an
other rush and with such success that
both young men may be said to have been
completely knocked out, for they gladly
consented to go when the -girie -s,'id them
to return to their companions, who heard
their remarks, and in the presence of the
girls admitted that what they had said
was untrue.
The young women then gathered up
their belongings and walked on as if
nothing had happened. A constable
learning of the affair, had the two young
men arrested. Souders was found guilty
and fined, but the trial judge concluded
that Kline had received sufficient punish
ment at the hands of the girls, and dis
missed his case.
The young men, while admitting that
their remarks were capable Of the con-
struction put on them by the girls, denied
that they were intended in an uncompli-
mentary sense. In court to-day one of the
girls hands was very much swollen by
coming in contact with one of the young
mems head The latter said that his as
sailant landed her blows too fast for him
to put I'D anv defence.

For Use on Debt Collectors.

A collector of bad accounts received a
lesson from delinquent debtor few
days ago that has started him to thinking
4 bit. The collector had been chasing this
delinquent for about six months and had
become tired of it. Call tomorrow" II
haven't it just now," and other excuses of
q similar dilatory nature, and thought it
was time to become sassy"
''See here" he said the last time he
called, "are you ever going to pay this
bill?"
why, yes" replied the delinquent,
II suppose will pay it some day or
other. But look here yourself, young
man, think can show you thing or
two. How many bills have you in that
bundle?"
About forty, 1 guess"
How long does it take you to visit
these people?"
"Generally get over my route in a
day"
"suppose every one of themshould pay
up"
That would be ine!"
90, it would, would it? What would
you do for Il living if everybody paid
promptly"
The collector turned the thought over
in his mind for a moment or two, ano
looked blank.
"Gracious," he said, "Pd be out of a job. ,
That's exactly my point. Don't, there
fore, be so Internally anxious to collect
every cent due your people at one time
A few collections day are enough. A:
for my account, come around some day
next week, and may help you out OF
business by paying it. Good day"

PrOtracted Meeting.

EDITOR TIE BAMBERG HERAKD.-Al
low me to say few things through your
paper to the people of Bamberg. AS has
been announced. revival meeting will
begin at the Baptist church ON the fourth
Sunday, August 25, and it is earnestly
hoped that it will be revival of religion
in truth There are some good, true pco'
pie here who would be glad to see the
work of Christ revived and strengthened
in the beautiful little town. These noble
souls are willing to do what they can for
a good meetin for they want to get nearer
to the Saviour themselves and are anxious
to see souls saved. Who will come up to
the help of the Lord? am plain, must
be plain. Bamberg is very, very much III
need of a revival of religion in the hearts
of the saved that they may go to WORK III
earnest for the Master that others may be
saved.
am anxious to do all the good l can
while am in the town, as servant, as
an agent, yea, as slave for Christ Jesus.
My aim is to do what Jesus sent me to 90,
viz: to preach the truth, to warn the peo-
pie, to tell them of the love of God and
of the willingness of Christ to save.
am not narrow minded as some people
in that they say there arc no good people
outside the Baptist church, Methodist, or
PRESBYTERIAN, etc There are noble souls
in other churches who are doing good
work for Christ, but do want to tell the
people What Jesus says. Now, l want
Christian people to be made stronger, to
get tirmer hold on Christianity, and
again, | want lost souls saved. ask kind
ly, although it ought not SO to be, Tor II
should be done without the asking, that
business men close their places OF busl-
ness for one hour each day during the
meeting and attend preaching, together
with their clerks. Hear me: whoever lets
ANYTHING come between him and God,
keeping him from doing his duty, sins.
Is there man in your employment un-
sayedy What are you doing that he may
be saved? Do you do anything? If not,
YOU had better see after your own saliva
ton, no matter how many churches you
belong to- Jesus tells us to 60 into all
the world and preach the gospel. There
is but one way to God, that is through
Jesus. Il am the way" John, 14:6.
"Verily, verify, l say unto you, he that
entcreth not by the door into the sheep
fold, but climbeth up some other way, the
same is thief and rObber." Jno., l0:l.
The most important thing in life is not
making money. but saving souls. Men
ought to make all the money they can in
the right way and use it for the glory of
God. Do you people of Bamberg know
what it is to be Christian? Men are
known by their fruit. Do you know what
the true religion is? Do you know what
was and Is implied in the act of accepting
Christ? You may deceive men but you
cannot deceive God BE not deceived;
God is not Knocked: for whatsoever man
soweth, that shall he also reap" Gal,
