has refused to postpone the sending
of English speaking missionaries with
in the field of this conferences; and Pc
titions have been received from seve-.
raj places praying that English mis-.
sionary work be started, therefore, the
executive committee deemed it neces-
sary that such mission work, be es-
tablished. And when it was learned
last summer that DR.. J. Telleen, who
has for a long period been engaged at
such work, was available, the execu-
tive committee thought it wise that the
services of one of such tried ability
and experience, be secured for the con-
ference. After earnestly considering
the matter, the committee unanimous
: ~ decided to engage DR.. J. Teleen~ as
superintendent Of English missionary
work within the conference -. :
After considerable discussion which
aired the views of several leading
clergymen in regard to the language
question and its Importance for the
future growth and development Of the
church organization, the above report
was accepted. The balance Of the
committees report with suggestions
for the regulation Of the English work
was then taken up section By section.
Quite a lengthy discussion ensued af-
ter the reading Of the first section,
and substitutes were offered BY Dr.. j.
s: Carlson. The two first sections
drew out an interesting discussion.
Dr.. Teleen was asked to report what
had been accompl ished during the
period thar he had been engaged il
the work. The doctor stated that be

TWO SUNBEAMS.

Straight through easement, open wide.
A sunbeam found its way,
And down upon the cottage floor
a shaft Of brightness lay.
Sent from the gay. glad outer world.
A messenger apart,
1t sloriied the humble room,
And cheercd the matron's heart,
II coaaxed the little one from play
And mosked, with true delight,
The vain attempts OF baby hands
To grasp the lance OF light,
Catch II you can" It seemed to say.
"Pd willing captive be-"
And danced before the wondering eyes
To the tune OF baby glee.
Bright shone the little golden head
As II fitted here and there,
As though the sun itself had lent
or Its shining store a share.
And mother caught her darling up.
In the midst OF his fruitless chase,
And showered kisses, warm and soft,
On the pretty baby face.

Though you followed the wide world

You're mothers little sunbeam, dear,
And she has caught you. too!

Dark would II be, anc drear,

And the bright face shining herel
God owns the sunlight. but He gave
This precious beam to mother,

But mothers heart was light,

DISCOVERY OF COFFEE. Made by an Arabian Shepherd

Coffee was first discovered in the sixth century by an Arabian shepherd who having observed the goats of his flock skip about and display other signs of in- toxication after eating the coffee berry, concluded to try it's effects on himself and thus discovered its exhilarating property.
 This discovery proved the poor shep- herds undoing, for he indiscriminately used large quantities, green. for it's ex- tilarating effect and soon died, poisoned by its use.
 In the sixteenth century, it was intro duced into France, and was used so strong and excessively. particularly by the Parisians that 1t was found to injure alike the complexion and digestion. This discovery prevented its general in- troduction into other European countries for the next century.
 Since that period. its growth has grad
 ually spread through Sthe civilized world. despite the fact that pain and destruction follow it's path. dyspepsia having been
 hardly known before its introduction. It is a nerve stimulant" and narcotic poison, and though in no sense a food. is used for its stimulating principle, Caf- feine, which excites the nerves unnatur- ally ard wastes the reserve force of the body Coffee drives the nerves for a time. stimulating them beyond their na- tural function, and using up all their re- serve force. After the first effects are past, comes breaking down of the nerve centres and general nervous derange- ment. Following this in many but not all cases is a long train of misery, among which the principal symptoms are dry ress in mouth and throat, headache, bill iousness, pains in stomach or abdomen.
 pain in eyes and head, loss Of appetite. dyspepsia and so on through long. long list, but the one cause of all the diff ferent symptoms is the same.
 The nerves have been broken down
 their reserve force is gone. Many of the symptoms of poisoning are-eXtreme nsr- vousness, restlessness. anguish Of mind and heart, excessive relaxation of body and brain, gloominess Inability to think correctly, slesplessness at night. drowsi- ness in the morning, etc.

NO LEAK IS POSSIBLE
WILSON AND HYDE COMMENT
 ON CHARGES.
Statistician of Agricultural Depart ment Says 1t is Impossible That His Figures Became
 Known in Advance.

Washington; Dec. 5.-Secretary Wilson said today he did not believe the charges published In New York that information of last Wednesdays Government crop report had leaked out in advance. MT. Wilson said that although he was away last Wednesday he made investigations of similar allegations in the past and despite the most searching efforts of secret ser vice agents who co-opei ated with the de- partment, he was unable to find anything to sustain the charges.
 John Hyde, statistician of the Depart ment of Agriculture, said that leak in the report wss absolutely impossible. It was 1o:45 o'clock Wednesday morning. he said. before he was able to approximate the figures and no one but himself saw the figures before their approval by the Acting Secretary of Agriculture, and inn mediate promulgation by the telegraph companies at noon. The reports are re- ceived from six different sources-county. township and State agents, etc., and from the figures thus given him separately, MT. Hyde makes up the official figures. Mir. Hyde says that no one but himself is present when the final figures are made up, and no one sees them until submitted to the Secretary for approval.

THE MONTGOMERY THEATRE.
Daringly Wicked Play By Splendid
 Company

"Dartngly wicked, but deucedly clever is a borrowed phrase which ftly describes the play ''The Gay Lord Quex.' presented at the Mont gomery Theatre last night by a company of exceptionally meritorious players
 Arthur W. Pinero Is responsible for this comedy, which actually shocked New York. Pinero has provided lines that scintiliate. albeit a newspaper which printed them could not be sent through the mails.
 It is not within the scope of respectable newspaper to speak of the story unfolded by the play. It could not be told in drawing room. There are situations that make gen. tleman, accompanied by his wife, fel like as- saulting the man who reads them in a public place. The attempt to refine nastiness Is a dangerous occupation. In that school Pinero appears to be a master. His reputation is that of one who out epigrams and builds plays upon them. The epigrams deal largely with relations of the sexes.
 The play under consideration abounds with risque dialogue. but there no climaxes and but one dramatic scene. This poor little bit of drama offered by the playwright. alas. is buiided upon the jeweled garter of a lady.
 Pity is is that decent players are compelled by greed for sordid gain to present such stuff in good theatres and within the hearing of po- lite ears
 The company is excellent. Miss Sylvia Lyn- den, who is new to the South. made feel that 1t would be pleasure to see an exhibi- ton of her undoubted art in something ele- vating-somethng refined, something not erotic. nauseating. MT. Hurst is a capable young &C., tor who gave one the impression that he re- beled against speaking the bold lines put into his mouth by the author.
 The other actors splendidly cast and did their part well in the neurotic exhibition, or exposition.
 To the credit of Montgomery theatregoers. a large audience was not present. The immor- ality of The Gay Lord Quex' had preceded it.
 The manager of the company will learn be- fore the wanes that 1t does not pay in the South--to send ahead of his company notices will assure the public that "The Gag Lord Quex' is the wickedest ever.'

SYSTEM OF PENSIONS.
President Hartman of Southern Pa
 cific Issues Plan.

San Francisco, Dec. 5.-President Harri- man of the Southern Pacific has issued a circular outlining the plan which it is proposed to follow in the pension system recently adopted by the Southern Pacific system.
 The plan is very similar to the system of the Pennsylvania, Illinois Central and the Chicago and Northwestern railroads. Each employe who has attained the age of 70 years and who has been in the serv- ice twenty years or. over is to receive an annual pension amounting to as many per cent of the average received he re- ceived during the last ten years of his service, the number of years he has been employed.
 For an instance, an employe whose pay averaged $1,000 a year for ten years prior to retirement and who has been in the service of the company for thirty years, would receive a pension equal to 30 per cent of $1, ,0OO or $500 a year.
 Between the age of 60 and 70 employees incapacitated for further work may be retired by a pension board provided they shall have been in the service twenty or more years. The employees made no con- tributons to the fund, pensions being paid by the company in full without any con- .dition, but employees being at liberty to engage in other business after being pen- stoned should they see fit.

CAPT. MAY IS DEAD
DEATH ENTERS SOLDIERS HOME
 FOR FIRST TIME.
Veteran of Roddy's Cavalry Who Went to Mountain Creek from Sumter County Died Sud-
 denly Last Night.

Death entered the Soldiers Home at Mountain Creek last night for the first tune in its history and Captain Philip May, veteran of the great war between
 the States. laid down to his final rest. Of him 1t was said a braver soldier nev- CT wore the grey. It was his misfortune | to have outlived those that were near
 and dear to him. Death had marked all
 upon whom he had a claim in his declin- ing years. There was none left The Soldiers Home at Mountain Creek was his only refuge and his only home. His forlorn condition, his loneliness in the
 world, his distinguished service for his State, his need, were claims upon the
 noble charity that could not be denied.
 There he found the rest and security
 to which he had for many years been
 stranger. He loved the Home. He spoke
 often of the delicate consideration. the
 kindly omradeship which the inmates
 felt one for the other. He deeply appre-
 ciated the fellow feeling that linked to-
 gether the hearts of the old Confederates
 who are spending together their declin-
 ing days at Mountain Creek.
 Captain May was from Livingston.
 Sumter County. He was Captain in the
 famous Roddy's cavalry. the command
 that rendered such distinguished service
 to Alabama in the closing days of the war. He was shot down four times on
 the field of battle sustaining each time
 serious and dangerous wound, yet he
 lived to see eleven sons and daughters precede him to the grave.
 Captain May was twice married. His
 wife and all children were dead when he
 sought admission to the Home last Spring.
 The final summons came to the brave
 old soldier with startling suddenness. He was taken i'll in the early part of last night and before Il o'clock She old Con- federate sank into his final sleep. Captain J. M Falkner was immediately
 notified by telegraph by George Jones, the carpenter in charge of the buildings at Mountain Creek.
 Captain Falkner will this morning. wire the Judge of Probate of Sumter County to ascertain if there are any living rela-
 tves of Captain May In that county who wish the remains sent there. If he does not hear from Captain Mays relatives
 the Confederate will be laid to rest Sun day under the shade of the pines at Noun tain Creek.
