Church improvements.

Our Presbyterian friends are
making extensive improvements on
their alredy handsome and comfort
able place of worship. A bell tower,
some sixty five-feet high, is being
built which will add very greatly to
the appearance of the front of the
building. Gothic windows will be
put in and the inside will be wains-
coated and handsomely papercd.
a new roof will be put on and the
church repainted. When completed,
the Presbyterian church of Westmin-
stcr would do credit to town of ten
thousand people. We are pleased
to see such improvements. 1t is

In the third place, tho greater the
development of industrial activities,
the wider tho sweep of political
power, the graver the necessity OF
the right men to control both. AS
we grow in material influence and in
national force, 80 must we grow in
the education which shall fit our men
to lead in industrial life, in our
country's councils, and, above all, to
lead where and as the spirit of Christ
shows the way.
If we would gather Alright the
fruits of material development, if we
would direct wisely and for the high
est good of the many, the plans and
policy of the government, we must
educate men SO that they may know
not only know how to make money,
but also how to use it; we must edu-
cate them not only to comprehend
the great problems of government,
but also to discharge its functions
with an eye single to the advance
ment Of their fellow men, the proper
growth of national spirit and the ex-
pansion of the earthly Zion.

exalt reason, to develop the intellect
alone, and to dwarf the soul, which
by inalienable right as cognate to
the spirit of Christ should control
reason and dominate the intellect.
AS Christians, we should be proud
of the fact that the Christian college
teaches philosophy, science and Ian
yuages as thoroughly as the secular
college, and that it's cardinal princi-
pie is that high above the, rule of the
mental is the dominion of the spirit
ual.
Are the graduates of demo nina
tional colleges inferior to the pro-
ducts OF secular institutions?
Call the roll of graduates from
Furman and Wofford, from Erskine
and Newberry, from Richmond and
Davidson and Wake Forest, from
Mercer and Howard, and see the
long procession of leaders in every
department of activity, of men whose
lives are indissolubly linked with the
material, the political and the relig-
ious development of the entire South.
Then in the welfare of these Chris
tian schools every one who believes
in Christian education as an uplift-
ing force, as a refining, directing cle.
ment, as a tremendous factor in char
acter building, rs mighty constitu-
ent in the evolution and maintenance
of pure society, as great adjunct to
higher conception of Christhood
and broader comprehension Of. the
duties, the responsibilities, and the
grandeur of the gospel of our Lord
and Master, should both feel and
show profound and abiding interest
AN interest whose manifestations
should be seen in sending their sons
there to be trained, and in the blessed
sacrifice of giving money that they
may live and prosper and grow for
the sake Of our country and for the
glory Of God.
The history of denominational
education is the history of denomi-
national growth.
Nay more.
Strike out from the story of
American development the lives and
the labors of mon who were either
trained in Christian colleges or to
these colleges gave their service and
their loyalty, then would you render
blank and void the best part of a
century of American civilization.
Then from the story of tho Pal
metto State you would pluck out the
pages that shine with the names of
men who, great physicians and jur-
lists and publicists, have been most

When man shall be as the beasts
of the field, when the human heart
shall throh no more with hope and
pure ambition, when the soul of man
shall be satisfied with the narrow
span of mortal life, then and then

wALHALLA. SOUTH CAROLINA. OCT as, 1901.

On Sunday night at the First Bap.
tist church was gathered one of the
largest congregations seen in this
city in some time. Representatives
of nearly every avocation of life were
present. The students of Furmal
University attended in large mum
bers.
DR.. Andrew Phillip Montague,
the able president of Furman Uni.
versity, delivered a strong logical
address on the subject of "Develop.
ment and its Safeguard" His de.
livery was that of born orator, bis
articulation clear and distinct, hit
bearing easy, holding the undivided
attention of the large congregation
from the beginning to the close Of
the address. DR.. Montague spoke
as follows:
The business activity of the New
England States, the sailing of count
less steamships from the Atlantic
ports, the vast oil, iron and GOA
trade of Pennsylvania and Ohio, the
sight of thousands of acres of wheat
and corn in the Western States, the
work of machine on the California
slope drawn by 26 hcTscs, which be.
gins by cutting wheat and ends 10y
measuring and bagging it, the growth
of mills and factories in the South,
tell the story Of industrial expansion
throughout the United States.
The material development of the
last twenty-five years is beyond the
dreams of men 100 years ago.
Where fifty years past there were
lonely fields and desolate wastes arc
to-day villages and towns, the hum
of machinery and the whistle of the
locomotive engine.
The alkali dust of the desert and
the seemingly impcnetrable fast
and gorges of the mountain have not
avaled TO stay the march of pro.
grcss; but the very difficulties of
nature have tempted the restless
spirit of the pioneer, whose maxim,
seems to- be the thought of the Latin
author, "There is nothing too hard
for man"
14o! it is a goodly land which the
lord our God >has given to us for
our possession. Here valleys and
plains, where great rivers bear the
argosirs of commerce, where golden
hnrvcsts bring reward to the hand of
toll, stretch away TO meet the hori-
zon; there mountains rear their sum-
mits toward the skies, forming the

Over Ten Years Spent In Sleep.

A recent dispatch from Stock
bridge, Michigan, says that one of
the most remarkable cases on record
is that of May White, who, for more
than ten years, has battled against
sleep and has won. While attending
business college at Ypsilanti in
1890 Miss White, at that time 22
years old, sustained injuries to her
spine by fall upon the icy pave
ment, which caused an abscess in her
side. She was removed to her home
ten miles from this village and placed
under the care of DR.. Herman E..
Brown. Her case soon developed
into hystcric epilepsy, and she has
had from one to fifty convulsions in
a day. Then began her long sleep,
aud for twenty days she slept,
while the doctor worked for hours
trying to awaken her, and only for a
few moments would she remain
awake when she would relapse into
deep slumber. For years no one
was able to awaken her hut the doc
tor, although many tried to do SO.
She is now so far recovered as to be
easily awakened hy any one. DR..

without faith in Christ and in the
Book, wherein the wisest and best of
earth have found wisdom immeasu-
rably beyond their own, have found
cure for every i'll, balm for every
sorrow.
1t is Christian education that
shows to jrdgc and lawyer that in
the realm of mans statutes and
enactments the supreme sovereign is
Gods law; that bids the physician
see in bones and arteries and in all
the mysteries of the body the handi-
work Of the Deity, and leads him,
when human remedies have failed,
to knecl by the bed Of the dying and
, to plead thai the everlasting arms
may be around and beneath him
whose eyes arc to close upon the
scenes Of time it is Christian edu-
cation that teaches the patriot that
he serves best his country who serves
best his God; that bids the teacher,
while evolving the forces of the
mind, bring forth the nobler forces
of the soul.
In conclusion, few words to the
young men and young women here
present.

Edwin Bockley Coo.

Blacksburg, S. c., October 49,
Edwin Beckley Coe, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. II. l.. Coe, died at their home
in this place Saturday morning, Sep.
tcmber Ia, from an attack of typhoid
fever. Despite the unremitting care
Of his physicians and the watchful
and tender care of his parents and
friends, the dread disease conquered,
and the pure spirit of the child left
its frail tenement for better and
happier land. On Sunday morning,
in the presence of large number OF
sympathizing friends, the funeral
services were held at the home by
Rev. MIR. McCutchen, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, and his body
laid to rest in the Baptist cemetery
Beckley possessed sweet, gentle
and attractive disposition; a bright,
quick mind, and was favoritc, not
only in his own family, but was loved
by his fellows and by all who knew
him. While he is sadly missed in
his parents home and in the school
room by his fellow pupils, we feel
that our loss is his eternal gain, and
that he is now free from sorrow and
sin forever.
Safely, safely, gathered in;
Far from sorrow far from sin;
iod has saved from weary strife,
In its dawn, this fresh young life;
Now it waits for us above,
Resting in the Saviour's love;
Jesus grant that we may meet
There adOring at Thy feet" A.
