sitiOn, But Doubts Results.
Edinburg, Scotland, Nov. 1.-Lord
Rosebery, speaking at a crowded
meeting here to-day welcomed the
suggestion of a conference between the
Liberal leaders. He said he was will
ing to promote to the utmost in his
power the success of such a proposal.
The former premier, however, reiter-
ated his abnegation of home rule, and
said he did not see any prospect of
the Liberals coming into power in the
near future. Lord Rosebery said fur
Their it was the duty Of the Liberals
to remove any possible belief from the
minds of the Irish that any independ-
ent parliament or anything leading up
thereto could be entertained by Great
Britain. Mr.. Redmond's recent an
nouncement that in the future the
Irish land problem must take pre-
cedence over home rule. said Lord
Rosebery, had quite changed the

A CHURCH LIGHTHOUSE.
Charleston, S. c., Has the Only One
In the World.

Charleston, S. c., Has the Only One
In the World.
The only church in the world so far
as is known that is also lighthouse is
st. Philips church, Charleston, S. G.
st. Philips, which is one of the oldest
churches in America, is known as the
Westminster abbey of South Carroll
ma" because within and about it's walls
so many distinguished men lie buried,
including John c. Calhoun. The history
of the old church is closely interviewer
with that of South Carolina, and many
of the most celebrated events in the
history of the province are connected
with it.
1t is one of the sights of Charleston,
and strangers are always taken to see
it and shown it's graves and monu-
ments.
The most remarkable feature Of the
old church, however, is the fact that
its lofty steeple serves the purpose of
a lighthouse and is 'r;ed to guide the
seafarer and mariner safely into the
port of Charleston. The use of the stee-
pie as lighthouse dates back to 1894,
when the United States lighthouse de-
partment succeeded by dint of repeated
efforts in inducing the vestry of the
old church to allow lantern to be
placed in the upper story Of the steCple
to be used as range light for vessels
entering the harbor through the jetties
at It's mouth.
The light used is very powerful and
is placed at an altitude of about 12J
feet above the ground. so that it is
easily visible thirty miles at sea. Ships
making for Charleston harbor at night
always keep a sharp lookout for St
Philips light and as soon as they sight
it get it into line with the beacon OF
Fort Sumter and then make straight
away run for the mouth of the jetties
and up through them into the harbol
of Charleston.
ST. Philips church steeple is consider
ed one of the handsomest architec
turally in the world and always at

Charleston from the sea by its com
handing height and artistic proper
