REV. l.. M. ROPER, of Spartanburg,
has decided to decline the presidency of
Furman University, which was recently
rendered to him by the board of trustees
of that institution. In declining the
honor Rev. Mr.. Roper took occasion
to say, among other things: .I am
deeply sensible of the distinction con-
ferred upon me by your honorable
body in electing me president of Furman
University, and thank you for this
token of yonr confidence and esteem. I
regret very much that cannot accept
the position of trust and usefulness to
which you have called me; for | love
Furman University, my alma mater, and
! am willing, If it were right, to give nv
life to her service. / decline this call TO
be president for one, and only one, rea-
son: feel it to be my duty to continue
my work as pastor of the First Baptist
church of Spartanburg. 1 have been
here only three years, and my work is in
no sense complete. I have enthusiastic
confidence in the future of Furman Uni
versity. believe heartily that the
brightest day in her history is now
dawning. While l decline the offer of
the presidency with much regret, I
pledge my heart and hand, as pastor, to
this great work of Christian education"

No Politics, but Character.

Editors Courier: ask space in your
paper to vindicate my character. From
Mr., s. A. Massey's article i'm your issue
of March 4th I make the following quo
tation: But Mr., Doyle hasn't known our
friend Tommy asilong as have, or he
wouldn't be surprised at a man whom
popular sentiment connected so closely
with one of the foulest deeds of those
horrible seventies which he harped on SO
in taking part with the Tillmans in one
of the grossest Grimes in the annals of
the State, He didn't find such sympathy
for a certain widow and orphan much
nearer homo than Mrs. Tillman and
child."
1t willbe seen from the above extract
that l am charged with having been con-
nected during the seventies with one of
the foulest deeds. / pronounce this
ISillful and malicious falsehood and de-
band the proof. The widow and orphan
f5entioned want him to name, aud in
to this he utters another willful
Malicious faisehood. On account, of
The ranged relation existing between
Mr., Massey and myself, in my reply to
Nj Doyle, whatever may have said /
had no PERSONAL reference to nor even
though 02 him. A gentleman places the
same eetiinates,on his character that he
does on bis; II fa. Il. Y. Chalmers.

Many cremated by Oil Explosion.

Olean, N. Y, March GA score or
more of people were killed and a large
number were injured by an explosion of
oil here tonight. A freight train on the
Erie, made up principally of tank cars
filled with oil, broke in two near this
city about 8 o'clock. The two sections
of the train came together with crash
and one of the oil tanks was demolished.
Fire broke out almost instantly and tho
sky was lighted up for miles. Then there
was a terrible explosion. The flames
communicated quickly with the other
tank cars and second and third explo-
sion followed each other in rapid success
sion. Sheets of flame shot out in all di-
rections. Scores of persons were caught
within the zone of the fire and enveloped
in Hames. Men and boys ran screaming
down the tracks with their clothing mass
of flames. Others fell where they stood,
overcome by the awful heat. just how
many were killed is not known, as many
of the bodies were incinerated Twenty
two bodies have been taken from the
wreckage and AZ are injured. Some of
them are burned beyond recognition,
only the trunks and skulls remaining.

Birmingham, Ala, March 5.-Mr. and
Mrs. j. @. Dickerson, prominent citizens
OF Jasper county, were fatally injured
by a burglar early this morning near
Cordova and their home robbed of all its
yaluables. The weapon used by the

on the faces of his two victims show he
was forced to use it vigorously. Mr..

near the Laurens depot by Earle Floyd.
Both parties are white. The shooting is

places, one ball passing through the leg

THE South Carolina State disp6ns
last Friday placed orders with yariosle
distiiiers and brewers as follows: Rye
and corn whiskey e., 2 and 3-X) 1887
barrels; higher grades, 4,355 cases; beer,
IL cars; and quantities of sundries, such
as bottles, demijohns, corks, lead seals,
etc. All of which may be taken as an
indication that South Carolina does not
expect great temperance movement
among her citizens for month or so at
any rate. Wouldn't it be picnic for
Mrs. Nation if she could get to use her
hatchet promiscuously in this assortment
OF the Commemorative booze?

ENGLAND is said to be in tho throes OF
an Irish language craze. Dispatches from
London state that Irish plays are all the
rage, the names of railway stations are
being repainted and emblazoned in the
Gaelic, and some enthusiasts insist UP N
their bankers honoring checks writ, |
in Irish. "The craze appears to have
practically the whole country in it's grip,
and there are no signs of its dying out"
If you havy tears TO shed for Ireland, pre-
pare to shed them now. About all she
ever had that could be called her own
was her brogue, and it seems that Eng
land is determined to take that, too.

THE Wisconsin Legislature recently
passed resolution calling upon the Gov

delegates to convention to be held in
Atlanta TO discuss the race question.
Governor Hayward has declined-and
wisely, we think--to appoint delegates
from this State. What possible good
could come of such conventionp A
much better course would be to persuade
the wise-acres, who talk constantly and
aggravate the race question, to give us a
rest and hold their tongues. The negro
