his thirty years 81 tence in the peni-

arrival Of the officers at the Jail he Of

this pistol during both trials. 1t was
fastened to his leg by his garter.
When the officers appeared he had to
be carried from the Jail by force. He
cursed and swore at them, refused TO
wear a neat suit Of clothes provided
by his father and insisted on wearing

Want the Bible Changed

The Turkish censor is said to have

to print the Epistlc to the Thcsslonians
containing the geographical term Mac
edonia. lie insists upon substituting
the vilayets Of Salonica and Mon
astir." No doubt this could be more
exact il the Bible is to be brought
down to date. Macedonia was: it has
been Turkish policy to wipe it out. as
recognizable political entity, and the
revolutionary sentiment just now
manifest in that region will account
for the Official scnsitiveness. But there
are other references to Macedonia in
the New Testament more significant
than this, as where IL man of Maccdco.
MIA appeared To the Apostle i'm the

edonia and help us" This is an appeal
which The Turkish censor should by

An Able Address.

The address Of the Hon. 3. Hart
Moss before the Alumni Associa tion
of Woiford College at Spartanburg
last week is most highly Spoken of by
the newspapers. The Spartanburg
correspondence Of The Statae3 sys
when he asserted that the cotton
mills which a few days ago were de-
Stroycd by the Hoods would SOON be re-
built upon Il larger and more modern
S :ale, the applause which greeted this
announcement told unmiStakab bly that
his were no idle words. Mr. Moss de-
clarcd that the alumni Of tile college
must look for substantial aid and sur
gested as one plan to increase the en-
dOwnmcnt OF the Institution that each
Methodist in the State should contrib
ute ST. TO tho scmi-ccntcnnial fund
next year, thus raing $50, 900. While
Woliord is distinctly Il Methodist in
stit,ltion, the speaker had nothing but
words of highest commcndation for
the other colleges in the State, but
felt that the institution which had
contributed SO many men who had
done so much for the good OF the State
should he enlarged and her usefulness
thus extended. The address was
chastc and exceedingly interesting to
the large audience assembled.n

The Spartanburg journal says gen

look after the distribution of funds
for the Hood sufferers now has on hand
about $4,000 in money which Is un-
disposed Of. The committee some
days ago recognized the fact that
they would not need all OF the money
that was coming In so rapidly, and
accordingly statements were issued
and published to that effect, but tic
generosity of the people continued un.
abated. The committee after expend-

$4,000, is still in the hands of Lhc

"A Quickencd ConscIo ,cc.

The editor of the Newberry ObSer-
yer says he was talking with an old
friend recently about various things
when the question of restitution came
up. This friend took the broad
ground that there can be no genuine
repentance OH the part OF one who
mas defraudcd another without resti-
tuition is possible. Illustrations will
suggest themselves to everyone; there
are so many methods of defrauding-
SO mary that the world approves and
even some pious people So.callcd wink
at; And when one comes down to the
true meaning OF honesty and a good
conscience all methods Of fraud are
serious matters. When one wants to
square his accounts with the next
world can he let his accounts for this
stand open and unsettled? Can one
repent OF having stolen and still hold
ON to the stolen good? Can one up-
press the poor and wiring from them
their hard-carncd savings and then re-
pcntand go to heaven without restor-
ing or making some honest effort To
restore his ill-gottcn gains? nccc:.t
ancc is possible, we believe, to every
human being whether that repentance
he or the emotional kind that makes
one very sorry or whether it is simply
a conviction or wrong doing and DC
termination to do right. But we do
not believe that a repentance, or So
called repctance, that does not force Il
restitution Of ill-gottcn gains, where
possible, is worth 4 20 lpcr.n we be-
licvc the above to bc sound scriptural
doctrine, and would comment it to ali
who owe any man any thing.

What GOV. chamberlain Says

a What Gov. Chamberlain Says. III
Ex-Governor Chamberlain, who has
spent several months for his health
in Columbia, and who only recently
| 1T for a trip to Europe, wrote long,
entertaining and instructive letter to
the Springfield Republican while in
Columbia on the negro question. lie
declares that his further acquaintance
with the negro shows that he has made
little progress, and that if lie had
tho power now and could obtain con
troll OF the government the same CON
dition Of robbery, corruption and vice
would exist as 1t did in the days of re-
construction. lie THINKS there may be
some hope for the negro, but taking
him all in all he is no more fit to cxer-
else the right Of ballot now than; he
was just after the war. The Columbia
Record says Governor Chamberlain
is con- lpetent judge in this in
stance, because he was beneficiary Of
the suffrage given the negro in South
Carolina just after the war, and he
realized then, in a few. years that a
great mistake had been made. and
his latest visit to the South
further confirms him in his view.
In holding that the fourteent
and fifteenth amendments SHOULD
never have been adopted, he de-
| clares that some Of the leaders may
have believed that they were insuring
that justice would be done the negro
by passing them, but Of his knowledge
the amendments were passed purely
because of the greed Of party power by
great majority Of the Republican
leaders. The North is rapidly coming
to realize what Stupendous error was
made, and it would not be surprising
II Strong movement would come
from that section for their repeal.
The New York Sun has already advo-
Gated that policy. 1t is not too late
yet to remedy, in small degree, at
least, that great wrong.

which can be done by the influence of
the college women were discussed by
Whitelaw Reid in the annual address

VaSsar College, Poughkeepsie, n. Y.
recently. The address marked the
opening of the commencement week
exercises at the young womcn's col

Reid said:

conservative power of educated wo-
men naturally will show it's influence

is the dcplorable record on which Ro-

that the plan Of South Carolina not to.
