MISSION WORK IN INDIA.
Pity: the Driving Wheel Of Christian Charity

Pity: the Driving Wheel Of Christian Charity.
The following very excellent
and interesting paper on "Mls-
sion Work in India was deliv-
by Mrs. VIM. F. Lee, recently,
at Greenwood, S. c., before the
South Carolina branch of the
Woman's Foreign Missionary
Union:
Setting our eyes on far India,
$1,000 miles from Christian
America, with its eternal flowers,
it's perfumed atmosphere, its en-
chanting shades and wales, and
it's mountain peaks nearly three
miles high: we see before US a
race sacred to civilization before
the building of the pyramids.
They are a peculiar people
locked so fast in the dogmas OF
an idolatry comprising $4,000,
900 gods and goddesses, beside
men, animals, and almost every
thing within the limit of visible
creation, that England, with her
standing army there of 100000
men, has found it necessary, IN
order to maintain government
not to interfere with the reli,
gion Of their almost prehistoric
fathers.
They are a gentle people, alb,
staining from animal food, as in
citing to the passions; they are
respectful, and patient, and en-,
during to the end of many OF
their pitiable lives; and they
need the true God-that great
unknown God, whow Paul from
Mars hill, preached to the fanat'
Iic Athenians.
Their women are in reality the
only suherers-the greatest grief
| in a family being the birth of a
female child, who from her birth
is considered less holy than a
COW. Many Of them are drown
ed now at birth. They are con.
sidered incapable of education OF
advancement; and are allowed
no souls, only as through ex-
treme faithfulness and attention
to their husbands they may in a
succeeding existence be reborn
as men and thus win heaven.
Mid all the Gods that infest
their heavens, earth, air, these
women really have but one God
whom they fear and worship
their husbands! They fear them
because no law protects them
from any cruelty a man may IN
fict, and they worship them,
because through them alone they
expect happiness in a future
State. The women, to avert
penalties of their forefathers
upon the present generation are
compelled to marry when little
children-thus, under chastise
ment of a husband the demons
within the little ones are una ole
to torment the race, and, should
the child be yet so young as IN
der age, to live in her mother,ln; !;
laws house, and the betrothed
husband dies. her sins of this OF
a preceding life are held guilty
of the death, and she is punish!

The Great Strike.

The situation in the anthricite
coal region in Pennsylvania, has
reached the critical stage. The
strike has been going on for four
or five months during which time
the mines have not been operated.
The supply of anthricite coal, in
consequence of this, has been ex-
hausted and as this species of
coal is largely used in both home
and factory up there great incon-
venIence to business and suffer-
ing in families is resulting. The
president made an Intellectual at
tempt to reconcile the strikers and
the operators. The strikers
manifested willingness to
accede to terms; but the opera
tors coolly snapped their fingers
in Roosevelts face and refused to
recede from their arrogant posi-
ton. They showed the rough
rider that he can't ride over the
trusts. What he will now under.
take to do is matter of conjecture
entirely. AS the cold weather
is approaching apprehensions of
intense and wide spread suffering
in the cities prevail. The limited
supply of coal to be bought is now
held at twenty dollars per ton,
which is cent a pound. The rich
can afford to buy it, but the poor
can not. What they will do, God
only knows. Spectators are send
| ing large orders to Wales and .the
shipment of coal to our shores has
already begun. 1t is too late now
| to get sufficient quantity from
that source to supply the needs OF
the people.
The governor of Pennsylvania
has called out ten thousand troops
to protect the mines, as he claims.
This means, of course, to work
the mines. The governor il
a republican and his sympathiel
are all with the trusts. He viii
use the troops as far as he can il
favor of the operators. Thei
presence on the scene Of the strik
will be offensive to the striker
and collisions may result. Ever
thing seems to be threatening an
as the temper Of both sides !
, drawn to the utmost tension dis
astrous results may follow.

To The People OF Lee County.


It is the earnest desire Of the
Journal that it should be received
into every household in Lee Coun-
ty. The advantages which this
would bring to the journal can be
easily discerned and the mani
fold advantages that it would
carry into every home which it
entered can be easily stated.
No home should be without a re-
liable, decent newspaper It is
from this source that the family
derives much that goes into its
fund of knowledge and informa-
ton. A good newspaper carries
blessings with it wherever it goes.
1t diffuses knowledge, spreads the
general news, tells all about cur
rent events and posts its readers
upon all matters of general inter-
est.
1t gives to the farmer much
information about the means and
methods by, which he may conduct
his business to his best advantage.
The farmer is the mud-sill upon
which the entire business super
structure is builded. He is the
creator of wealth and from his
labor springs the labor Of the
mechanic, the artizan, the lawyer,
the school teacher, and all other
vocations. God made the farmer
first of mankind and assigned to
him the work of feeding all the
others. This is great and grand
work. The newspaper strives to
aid him in it by means which less
ems his toll and relieves him oil
irksome and wearisome super.
f1uous labor. 1t is his friend and
strives, at all times, to turn the
stones that lie in his. way and to
make his pathway easy and pleas
