Methodist Facts and Figures.

The following from circu'
lar letter issued by Rev.G.W
Davis, pastor of the Edgeheld
Methodist church, to be sent
to the members, will prove o1
interest to our readers:
Twenty-Five years ago the
M. Z. church, South, occu-
pied but one foreign feld,and
had in that field but two Mis-
sionaries, three native preach
ers, four Bible women and
seventy-four native communi-
cants. The contributions less
than $1oo for all puroses.
Today our church occupies
six foreign fields-China, ia
pan, Korea, Brazil, Mexico
and Cuba. In them it has 1913
missionaries, 100 native trav-
cling preachers, II, 900 mem-
bers, IS Bible women; over
5000 women and children un-
der instruction; six hospitals
in which more than 1900
patients are treated annually.
In 1000 the church abroad
raised more than $4,000
for all purposes. These fig
ures are inspiring, and figures
III religious work do not tell
half the story.
If could give the figures
relative to our Domestic Mis-
sions, I doubt not they would
be fully as cheering. God is
using the Sanctifed gifts OF
His people, and at home and
abroad, is giving precious
souls in exchange for gold.
Conviction grows on the
church that our Missionary
assessments, representing as
they do a minimum of need,
shouldbe paid in full. Seven
annual conferences paid theirs
in full last year. In Confer
ences that did not, a number
of districts did pay in full In
our own conference the num-
Der of charges paying their
Missionary assessmentin full,
increases from year to year.
Shall not Edgefeld be num-
bere;' With With these this year !?

Roosevelt mac
esstsNe vitation to Sen
ator Illlman to a reception
given in honor of Prince Hen
ry. After Senator Tillman
was adjudged in contempt OF
the senate, the President with
drew the invitation, assigning
as a reason for the withdrawal
that it would be an act of dis
courtesy to the senate and his
guest to have one present who
had been deprived of the pri-
vileges of a senator. In con-
sequence of and retaliation
for this seeming affront to
Senator Tillman, Colonel Jas.
H Tillman last Thursday wir-
ed President Roosevelt re-
questing a withdrawal of his
acceptance of an invitation to
present a sword to Major
Mich Jenkins, who was a gal
liant member of the "Rough
Rider" regiment from South
Carolina during the Spanish
American war. The presen-
tation was to have taken place
during the Presidents visit to
the Charleston Exposition
about the middle of March.
Bl5Nhether Colonel Tillman act
{ ed wisely or not,he personally
had a right to withdraw an
invitation which he had ex
tended to the President, but
he exceeded his authority
whe:, he signed his name as
Lieutenant Governor of South
Carolina to the withdrawal of
the invitation, thereby appar
emily making every citizen of
the State particeps criminis in
the indignity to the President.
To correct this erroneous i'm
ssion Governor McSween-

officially for the State or the
people, but it was purely al
personal matter.

ARCHIBALD THE GOAT.

If Darwin, the late distinguished
scientist were to witness a perform
ance as given by the Norris & Rowe
Big Trained Animal Shows which is
to appear here for two performances,
Wednesday. October 10Th, he could
find material for new book on evo-
luton that would make more than in
teresting reading. The conclusions
which the scientists could draw from
Archibald, the goat, for instance,
would be valuable to the realms of in
quiry into the whyness of things. 1t
would be pleasant to know just what
he would have to say about Archi-
balds habit of walking ropes and rid
ing ponies in iull career around a saw
dust ring. 1t must be admitted that
this is not the nature OF such amin
als-at least we were taught so at
school. Never, in their widest flights
OF fancy, have the portrayers of COM
ical pictures, which show goats in the
act of eating tomato cans and doing
other ludricrous things, portrayed a
goat like Archibald. Still it must be
remembered that Archibald is an ex-
ponent of higher education and is not
to be classed with the ordinary clothes

Another LiVelu Ddu Reported bu The
Z6IIn6r Piano Go.

Judging from the number of pianos
that the Zellner Piano company are
selling at their special sale, Tucson
seems to be very musical city, for
they again report several sales of pi-
amos. Yet, considering the unusual
low prices and the very easy terms
that they are offering these pianos at,
it isn't at all surprising the success of
their sale.
They have made reduction of from
10 to 20 per cent on all the new pi-
amos that they have in stock, and have
marked the slightly used and second
hand pianos down to prices that will
just clear them from loss. They do
not require large payments down, or
large monthly payments, but will seTl
some of their most expensive at SIS
cash and $40 per month, and one of the
cheaper at $6 and 81 per month.
Among the secondhand pianos they
have a Steinway Grand in first-class
condition for $115, $40 cash and $6 per
month; one other square piano for
$40, Sc cash and $5 per month; one
small upright for $89, So cash and 81
per month; one Martin piano, up
right, for $1S7, SIS cash and $S per
month; one Ivers & Pond, in first
class condition, for $172, $40 cash and
permonth. Besides the above, they
have several new pianos at greatly re-
.duced prices. AS this sale will only
last about eight days longer, those in
ested should call at once and get a
good selection.
The warerooms of the Zellner Piano
company are at 11S East Congress
street, and will be open evenings dur
my the sale from to 8 o'clock.
