cral demand. Southern homes with
held nothing that could AID to the
soldiers comfort. Every available
fragment Of material was converted in
to some kind of garment. After the
stores Of blankets in each home had
been cheerfully given, carpets were
utilized in their stead, and portioned
out to the suffering soldiers. Wool
mattresses were ripped open, REGARDED
and woven into coverings and clothing.
Bits Of new woolcn fabrics, left from
former garments, were ravclled, carded,
mixed with cotton and spun and knit
ted into socks. Old and worn garments
were carried through the same process.
Even rabbits fur was mixed with cot
ton or silk, and appeared again in the
form aud neat and comfortable gloves.
Begging committees went forth (and
be it truthfully said, the writer mover
knew Of single one being turned
away empty,> to gather up the offer
ings from mansion and hamlet, which
were soon cut out, made up, packed
and forwarded with all possible speed
to the soldiers.

And who can tell what pleasure we
took in filling boxes with substantiala

turning the heel had been passed.

PRESIDENT SENDS GREETING.
Message to the baptist Young Peo-
pies Convention mt Chicago
Sent from Canton.

Chicago, July 29.-President Will
liam Mckinley sent n message of con-
graduation Saturday to the Baptist
Young Peoples convention at the
Coliseum, in which he rendered his
best wishes for successful gather
ing. Rev. w. III. Geistweit read the
dispatch, and one of the most enthus-
iastic scenes of the week followed.
Banner meeting and roll call were
features Saturday. To the tune of
Arthur Seymour Sullivan's famous
hymn, Onward, Christian Soldiers"
sung by 1000 voices, the banner bear
ers representing the organization in
the United States and Canada
marched into the big hall from the
main entrance. Down the aisle they
filed, and into position in the gallery
back of the platform. Minute and a
half speeches followed from each
delegation. Maine was the only state
not represented.
To the state of MINES ota for the
fifth consecutive time was presented
the banner for the best work in liter
ature course. A banner for the best
all round work of any union was
given to the Duffy street church. of
Savannah, Ga.
With a conservation service full of
the evangelistic spirit tue Baptist
young folks brought the convention
of their society to close r this city
Sunday evening. In the Coliseum was
gathered one of the largest audiences
of the entire four days gathering,
and despite the heat the manifesto
tions of devotion to the work of the
society was marked. Rev. William II.
Geistweit, acting editor of the Union,

Police Hill p. Lowery and L. Z. Swof-
ford started for the scene of the dis
turbance to arrest Policeman Pass,
but were met by Shirley Pass and
were told not to go. They had words
and the officers were ordered back by
Pass, who fiourished pistol. Swof-
ford then shot Shirley Pass through
the left lung, fatally injuring him.
The officers went on and found Po-
liceman Pass quarreling with crowd
of negroes, but soon left. AS soon
as he heard of his sons shooting
Pass looked up Lowery and Swofford
and opened fire on Swofford. Swof-
ford empted his pistol and ran, and
| when Pass turned toward Lowery the
latter shot him dead.
