RELIGIOUS NEWS.

The Young Peoples Union realized
a nice profit from DR.. Pettie's lecture
last Friday evening. the net proceeds
amounting to something over $50.
Rev. w. B. Capers' sermon Sun
day morning was from the text,
"Unless man be born from above.
he cannot see the Kingdom of God. -
1t was the common belief, the speaker
said, that the christian religion and
science did not harmonize in many
particulars, but such is not the case.
The greater scientists have proven
time and again that there is perfect
harmony between the two. References
in the Bible heretofore understood but
imperfectly, have been brought into
the light Of perfect understanding by
scientific discoveries of later years
One of the facts established by the
scientific research is that there can be
no material life without some pre-
ceding life. There can be no spon-
taneous generation. Hence in the
beginning there could have been no
life except from a supreme and i'm
mortal source. So it is in the spirit

the card room being especially grace
full. Beautiful refreshments had been

This secret was the engagement of
Miss Fleming to MIR. Proctor Polk,

Arion Male Quartette.

If the Arion Male Quartette is an
earnest of the attractions Manager
Wilkins has in his Lyceum Course for
this season, Columbia is to be con-
graduated.
An evening with the Arion Male

are simply superb. And secC Id

ners or rather the absence of stage
manners. They have, all OF them,
the cultured manners OF born gentle
men-a mannerism SO becoming 1T is
passing strange the stage does not
more often adopt it.
Every number on the program was
good. The first hit was Mr.. Juleson g
solo, Lucky Jim. -
Mr.. Craig's rendition Of Rock OF
Ages, hushed the audience in rapt
attention, to break forth in raptuous
applause. and his second solo, Oliver g
"Good Night, Beloved" was beautiful
beyond description.
Manager wilkins announced that,
acting upon the advice of some of his
friends he had Withdrawn the 500
prize offered, there being some objec-
ton and criticism TO it, and had sub
stituted for it another entertainment
to the course. So this will give to the
holders of season tickets eight more
attractions. Certainly such liberality
upon the part or the Manager and
such effort to give to the public clean
shows, should be appreciated and
patrOnize1.

BUSINESS MEN MEET AND DISCUSS
Organizing a Light and Power CON-
pany for Columbia.

The business mems meeting at the
court house Monday night to discuss the
feasi bility of organizing a Citizens
Light and Power Company for Co
lumbia, was not largely attended. but
resulted in taking a preliminary step
that may, and most likely will, bring
the relief desired.
Messrs. t. E. Shwab, Manager
Southern Electrical Co., Nashville,
and w. q. Nimmo, representing the
Atlas Engine Co. of Indianapolis, Ind,
were present by invitation, and gave
out some approximate figures as u
basis to work ON. And after an infor-
NAL discussion of the matter. in which
il was the unanimous opinion that
Columbia stood in very great need of
day service, both for lights and
power. committe was appointed to
investigate the subject thoroughly,
both as to the amount of power and day
lights needed, and the cost of plant
for furnishing same. DIR. Otey Porter,
Mr.. j. A. Sloan and ". f. Anderson
were appointed on this committee.
and DR.. Porter, with his accustomed
promptness, wens to work on that
business the next day by spending
the day in Mt. Pleasant, inquiring
into the cost OF that plant, and the
cost of operating same.
The idea is not to build a very ex-
tensive or expensive plant in the be-
ginning. but to build just such an one
as is needed, and to operate it on the
cooperative plan, furnishing light
and power to it's members at cost
The committee expect to be able to
make their report IN the next week
or ten days, and there seems to be no
good reason why the company should
not be organized and successfully
operated.
