Washington, d. c., Nov. 9, 1903
Officials of the State Department,
as well as all who are interested in
the canal negotiations, are watching
closely the effortsIof Panama to gain
her independence. The revolution
Of the 1sthmus is now in full prog
ress. The Republic of the Isthmus,
as the new state calls itself in it's
declaration of independence, has es
tablished government under tri-
umyirate, driven out all Colomb bian
troops who were hostile to the reyo-
luton, adopted flag which is red .,
white and blue, and is now demand
ing recognition by this government.
The secession Of the Isthmus was cx-
pected. It's geographical connection
with. Colombia is loose one, and the
interests Of the two sections were an
tagonistic. When the Bogota gov
ernment rejected the canal treaty
and thereby delayed the construction
Of the canal which is so desired by
Panama, talk Of separation became
general on the Isthmus and has now
oOVh PdO iltlo NlSll 6VSTy DTOS-
pect of success. Our consular off
GERS have been instructed to recog-
nize the de facto government and
this is the first step in recognizing
the sovereignty of the new republic.
United States warships are at Pan
anna and Colon, and marines have
been landed to maintain an open
traffic on the Isthmus, as this gov
ernmsnt is obliged to do by the treaty
of 1916, which was signed with New
Granada. Of which Colombia is the
remaining part. Senator Cullum, of
the Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations says that he hopes Panama
will establish government which we
can recognize aud treat with regard
ing the canal, and his opinion is
shared by all those who believe in
the Panama route. Senator Morgan
on the other hand, declares that the
revolution puts an end to the negoti-
ations with Columbia and that Presi-
dent Roosevelt is now bound by the
positive instructions of the Spooner

nial Celebration came off at Elbethel
church yesterday and day before.
only attended one day-yesterday
The largest congregation L. think |
have ever seen there was present.
Rev. w. L. Tate, OF Bolton, and DR..
Lodge, Of Limestone Female College,
were the speakers, and its putting it
mildly to say it was treat to the
lovers of learning to listen to these
able speakers on their well-prepale e / sub
jects. Mr.. Tate was pastor there fifteen
years ago. 1t was DR.. Lodges first visit
to Eibethef. Plenty Of dinner was on
the ground and all were invited to par
trke. The ladies of Elbethel are equal,
and always have been, to any emergency.
Many times we have been there on pub
lie occasions and they have always helped
to feed the crowd-be it great or small
People were there from all points of the
compasS-the greatest congregation be-
ing from Galfaey. Many of our Jones
vile friends and acquaintance were
there. Union, Pacolet, Blacksburg.
Hickory Grove and Lockhart were rep
resented and all intervening sections of
'iO Sotl1S' uc OtSI pl OiueT prevailed
and the day was especially favorable for
the occasion. The church building has
been remodeled and received new coat
of paint. The pulpit has been changed
tothe O,her side Of the building aud the
sid4 doors closed This adds much TO
the Looks of the house. as well as To- the
comfort of the congregation and ministe;
1t has always been pleasure for us to
be at Elbethel on these occasions 1t
has been for years and years a great cen.
ter for our North Pacolet people to NEE,
on enjoyable occasions.

had time, but hope to do so soon.
But | am afraid l will have to muzzle
myself some. | will say here, that
it is the opinion Of many that the
work is getting along mighty slow
for the want of help, but not because
they could not get help if they would
have it, but some won't let them get
it.
A little three year old child,
Boutwell,, son of DR.. and Mrs. J. T.
Jeter, was severely and very danger
ously burned last Thursday evening,
4th inst, and for several days his
life was despaired of, but at present
it appears that change for the bet
ter has taken place. It's parents had
gone to MIR. j. Woods Jeter's, about
SIX miles off, on business, and in
their absence the child got in chair
to get some matches off the mantle
and began striking them, and one
caught its dress; a negro woman ran
to his rescue and tried to tear his
clothing off, not thinking to smother
the flames. He was burned ON the
tace, arms, legs, and over his bowels,
the latter place being almost into a
crisp. 1t was over two hours before
his parents got to him, but others
were trying to administer, but not
being skilled knew little what to do.
The child had good and clear mind
and could tell how he got the matches
and set himself on fire, and bore the
pain without crying, but with evi-.
dence OF great pain depicted on his
face. No doubt many are the pray
ers for the little Sufferers recovery.
and many people are in bright hopes
thai he will. He is a good child
and never before tried to play with
matches, even If he could get them.

The Greenville News complains
that Rev. Hicks, the weather prophet,
who has predicted more storms and
more disasters than any other trouble
hunter, rejoices over the report of
every calamity, provided he "saw it
first"-that he wants his predictions
to come true, no matter how great
is the suffering.
