GENERAL ASSEMBLY
MEETS NEXT AT MOBILE

Lexington, May l29.-The morning ses-
sion of the Southern Presbyterian Gem
eral Assembly was mainly devoted to
further discussion of the subject of con-
solidating the offices of the general
superintendents of Sunday-schools and
Young peoples societies. The assem-
bly, finally decided against consohda-
ton.
r. E. Magill of Richmond was elect
ed secretary and business manager of
the assembly's Publications Commit
tee. The report of the Committee on
Theological Seminaries, which was
adopted, showed that the character of
work of the student bodies at these in
stitutions had been highly satisfactory.
This year there will be thirty-nine
graduates. A board, to consist of one
professor and one trustee from each
seminary, is to be formed.

It was decided that the next General
Assembly shall meet next year in Gov
eminent street Church, Mobile, Ala.
Augusta, Ga, was the only other place
considered.
A communication was received from
the general synod of the Reformed
Presbyterian Church., asking that a
committee be appointed by the assem-
bly, to confer with similar committees
from bodies represented in the alliance
of Reformed churches and consider
the matter of closer cooperation or
unity of organization among Presbyte-
rian churches in the United States, the

conference to be held June "a. It was re-
terred to the Foreign Correspondence
Committee for report to the assembly.
The report of the standing Commit
tee on Education was adopted. Rev.
DIR. j. w. Lumkin of Memphis was re-
appointed secretary of the Executive
Committee on Education, with the fol-
lowing committee: Rev. Drs. McRae,
treasurer; Neel, Curry, Akers, Caldwell
and Scott, and Messrs. Wellfor, Read,
Davant, Albright, Johnston, Hunt,
Volt and Mason.
The report of the Standing Committee
on Home Missions showed that more
money had been contributed, more men
were at work, and more churches and
schools were established during the
past year than any year during the
past ten years.
A resolution was adopted providing
that a committee be appointed, with
Rev. M. NJ. Morrison as chairman, to
prepare and present to the President
of the United States, a memorial set
ting forth the rights of the missiona-
rles from this country in the Congo
Free State under the Berlin treaty and
showing how these rights are disre-
garded by the government of that
country. Our government will be urged
to ascertain and correct the wrongs
complained or and secure the rights to
which our missionaries to Africa are
entitled. Senators and representatives
from the states under the Jurisdiction
of the assembly are requested to as
sist the committee.
AT the night session of the assembly
a popular meeting was held in the in
terest of negro evangelization. An adj
dress on this subject was made by
Rev. DR.. D. C. Lilly of Tuscaloosa,

mttee on Negro Evangelization.

WAS RAILROAD DAY
TRANSPORTATION MEASURES IN
FLORIDA LEGISLATURE
WERE TWO RAILROAD BILLS.
ONE is DESIGNED TO GIVE APA-
LACHICOLA A LINE.

ApalachicOla Now Has no Railroad.
With One, 1t Is Considered the
Town Would Become AN Import
ant POrt-BiII Is Passed That win
Be Found Favorable to the Postal
Telegraph COmpany-The Senate
Rushed the Measure Through.
Tallahassee. Fla. May 2S.-This was
railroad day in the Florida Legisla-
ture, and two bills were passed by the
Senate to aid in the construction of
railroads in this state.
One of the measures was to incor-
porate the Jacksonville and Tampa Bay
Improved Railroad Company. The
other was a grant of land, 5000 acres
per mile, to the Apalachicola and
Northern Railroad Company, and to
aid this company in the construction
and equipment of it's road.
This bill is of vital importance to
Apalachicola, as that city is at pres
ent without any railroad communica-
ton with the outside world. The near
est railroad is the Carabelle, Tallahas-
see and Georgia, thirty miles away by
water. 1t is believed that the con-
struction and completion of this road
will make Apalachicola one of the most
important seaports on the Gulf.
Another important measure that
passed the Senate to-day, and is now
awaiting the Governors signature, is
an act to aid in the construction of
telegraph and telephone lines, and pre-
scribing the mode of procedure for the
exercise of the powers of eminent do
main by them, against railroad COM
panies for the right to construct, main
tain and operate lines upon their right
of way. This means that the Western
Union Telegraph Company will have
decided opposition in Florida, and that
the Postal Telegraph Company will
construct and operate a line from Pen
sacola to Tallahassee, Jacksonville and
Tampa, with branches that win extend
to every city in Florida.
This bill was received from the House
this afternoon, and was considered of
so much Importance by the Senate that
it was read second time by title only,
advanced to its third reading and pass
cd under a suspension of rules, all
within less than haitian hour.

THE SMALLEST DIsTILLERY.
A MOonshiner's OUTFIT Carried i'm a
SatcheI.

SatcheI.
From the Washington Times.
"City bred people who use whisky,
even if it is for medicinal purposes.
have their favorite brands, and a bot
tie without a label would find slow
sale, no matter what the quality" re-
marked Commissioner Yerkes, of the
Internal Revenue division of the Treas
ury Department recently. "But-and
you will scarcely believe-there is more
whisky without labels manufactured
in New York city than in all the moon
shine districts of Kentucky, West Vir-
ginia, Tennessee and Georgia COM
bined.''
Commissioner Yerkes tells many in
teresting stories of experiences of rev.
enue officers in the big cities of the
East, where a still may run for years
in some back room without the gov
eminent agents locating it. The trou-
BILE in finding an illicit still in city,
the collector says, is that the class of
people engaging in the manufacture of
the whisky are more intelligent than
the mountain class. They run their
still for profit, while the average noun
tain moonshiner operates his for the
little money he makes out of fifteen or
twenty customers near his home. He
sells his product cheaply and makes lit
tie beyond what he needs for his own
use.
From the amount of unlicensed whis-
ky which finds sale in the North it is
presumed that some of the city stills
are built on a scale that would do cred
1t to an Incorporated distiIlery which
has three or four special brands on the
market, but in the country and noun
famous districts of the Southern states
the stills are usually crude indeed.
Probably the most remarkable of any
of the moonshine stills ever broken up
by government agents was one cap
tured in Georgia In September of last
year. II was so small that the moon
sinner carried 1t about in a valise and
had plenty of room also for several bot
ties of mash. All he had to do when
he found a customer was TO find a Sc
cluded spot under cover OF some bushes,
set up his still and serve his drinks.
IL came TO grief because he failed 10
select thick enough clump OF bushes
and was not select In his custom. The
operator fell into the hands OF revenue
agents NJ the same time the still was
captured,
The Georgian who owned this re-
markable still was sent up for a term
OF years. but the property was thought
worthy Of preservation. II now has
