Greenwood's offer, and there is only
$4,000 for the building. of a col
lege, and a frst-class college cannot
be built. for that amount. More
over if such a sum were accepted
from Greenwood, as a matter oi
course Greenwood would expect
and demand representation as a
local interest, nor would the Meth,
odists have complete control Of their
own institution. 1t would be called
Greenwood College, and would be
tied down to local interests. In
Columbia it would be recognized as
the South Carolina Female College.
The wisest thing to do was to leave
it where it is and take their sympa-
thies and their interests to an insti-
tuition which has done such a glo-
rious work in the past.
Rev. J. M. Steadman, of Char
lesion, thought the greatest con-
sideration was the question of pat
rouage. The Piedmont was now
sending thirty-six pupils and the
rest of the State ninety. There
was no assurance whatever that this
patronage would follow, and the
speaker favored Columbia.
DR.. J. A. Clifton said he had
fought for Williamson, when many
who are now its supporters were
against him, and the best interests
of the girls of the State was what
he had in his heart. And if by
having one college in the upper
part of the State and one in
the centre and one moe girl
would receive an education the
grant results could not be
overe>timated. To the subject. for
brevity was the main beauty Of
his speech. For the removal
first came Brother Featherweight
(Featherstone) and then Brother
Child, who had more voice for
child than any man he had ever
heard. For three logical reasons
Columbia was the best location.
The first, the advantages afforded
the students by a residence in the
capitol of the State. The second,
that Columbia, with a population
of $4,000 is the strategic point Of
the State. The third, the health
condition in which the college Is at
present and in which it has been
since its foundation.
The Vote.
Upon motion, heprevious question
was called, and in the vote roll-call
demanded. The resolution, making
it the sense of Conference that the
college remain in Columbia, was
carried, the vote standing 12o yeas
to 81 nays, and the college remains
in Columbia.
Rev. E. 0. Watson, after the vote
was taken, said that In view of the
Twentieth Century Movement and
Columbia's part in it, and the ac-
tion just taken in Conference, now
was Columbia's opportunity. The
plan of the Board was to correlate
the educational system.
Rev. R. A. Child, on behalf of
Greenwood, moved to make the
vote for the Darby resolution, keep
ing the college in Columbia, unani-
NOUS. The motion was seconded
by Laurens and carried.

TREATY WILL CARRY.
Same Opposition Developed at
the Ardmore Convention, But
Msjority Favors it.


An Ardmore special to the
Kansas City Star of Monday
Says that a large number of the
leading Indians held a convent
ion there to discuss the pending
supplementary agreement which
will be voted on September 20.
No specific action on the treaty
was taken by the delegates. A
resolution was passed urging the
secretary OF the interior, Mr.. Hitch
cock, to appoint a special man
to cooperate with the Dawes COM
mission to make a fair canvass OF
votes.
rhe treaty provides for the clos
ing OF the rolls, the allotment of
lands and the winding up of the
tribal governments. There is op-
position to it because OF the plan
of allotment which provides that
each Indian shall get the value OF
800 acres of average land. II j.,
claimed that 500 acres would be
pro rata shares. The plan to sell
coal and asphalt lands at public
auction is also being opposed.
Indications are that the treaty
will carry BY a small margin. Com
meacial interests are heartily in fav-
or OF it.

CHAPTER TT.
TWO NAPoLEoNs OF JOURNALISM

TWO NAPOLEoNS OF JOURNALISM,
Robertyan Horne was the owner
and editor of the New York Record.
He was leading light in much
criticised school of journalism. He
was the eNemplar of the theory that
the modern newspaper should ''do
things"-to quote the idiomatic cx-
preston of Mr.. William Chalmers,
his managing editor.
Robert Van Horne was the mil
lionaire son of departed million
aire father. His mother died in his
school years, and at the age of 26
he found himself the sole owner of the
immense Van Horne estate, roughly
estimated as having a value Of $780,
100000. His cattle roamed on a thou
sand hills in New Mexico and Texas.
The drills of his mining machinery
were boring into the rocks in scores
of productive mines in Colorado, the
Dakotas and Montana. With the ira
ditional Van Horne luck" his agents
had been among the first to strike it
rich in the snow-swept valleys of the
klondike. AT an opportune moment
he had invested small fortune in
Tennessee iron lands, and before this
story opens had smiled at the con.
fusion of those friends; who chided
him as the purchaser of 'gold
brick"
Soon after the death Of his father
Van Horne bought the New Iorl
Record; a papcc which had survived
q checkercd career in the arena OF
metropolitan journalism. From the
first issue under the Van Horne man
agement the Record was a publica-
ton which could not be ignored
Like Minerva it sprang into life full
grown, and panoplied in new and
startling armor. 1t commanded at
tention and received it. There was
no escape for the public. Unless one
were blind, deaf and dumb he could
not remain unaware of the fact that
the Record was being published.
Mr.. William Chalmers, his manag
ing editor, was tall, smooth-shayen
clear-cut young mum, who had psssed
