THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
BY DR. j. W. sTAce.

The general assembly of the Southern
 Presbyterian church will convene in the
 Government Street Presbyterian church of
 Mobile Thursday night. the leth. From
 overtures which have been adopted by
 several presbyteries and ordered sent up
 to the assembly, 1t may be assumed that several matters of vital interest to Pres byterianism and Calvanism will be dis cussed by the commissioners. Among the more important questions will be the one of union with the northern Presbyterian church. This question has been before both the assembly south and north ire quently since the division of the church in 's5, and while as yet no basis of union has been reached. it is generally conceded that as the years past by and new issues arise there is greater probability that a basis of union will be reached at this as- semhly than there has been at any pre- vions assembly. Ten years ago. when the assembly was in session In Nashville. was the nearest approach to union than al any time since disunion. What is known

WILL THE CHURCHES
 COME TOGETHER ?.
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE CUMBERLAND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH WILL CONVENE THIS WEEK AT DALLAS.

The general assembly of the cumber- land Presbyterian church will convene at Dallas, Texas. this week. Consider able interest is being manifested in this meeting as the question of the union of the Presbyterian bodies Of this country will come before the assembly.
 A the meeting of the assembly a year ago at Nashville a committee was ap- pointed, looking to closer unioh with the Presbyterian bodies of like faith. The Presbyterian church of the United States of America in session in California at the same time appointed a committee looking to the same end. These. two com mittees have had a number of meetings during the year. At the last joint ses- sion a report was unanimously submit ted, agreeing on terms of union of the two churches. Whether the Cumberland Presbyterian assembly will accept the re- port of the committee Is difficult to tell.
 Last night a reporter called on the Rev. Dr. l. D. Steele pastor of the First Cum berland Presbyterian church, relative to the matter. Dr. Steele stated that the
 
 discussion in the church papers | He said:
 q cannot possibly tell whether the re- port of the committee will pass the as- sembly or not. It takes two-thirds vote for 1t to pass. It then does not become final, 1t must be voted by a majority of the Presbyteries. If 1t Is not killed in the assembly 1t will be a year yet before results can be announced" pr. Steele said "A number of Presbyteries have petitioned for the committees report to be accepted, and some also are against it, This assembly is full of the greatest interest" When asked what effect 1t would have on his denomination in the south, should union be accomplished. He said:
 We will never know the difference IT, our practical church work, as there is no church of that faith here, except it will give greater impetus to our church. es in the west and southwest. Our church does not know any north or south, the war did not split the church. What about the present union movement the Pres byterlan church, north, last year revised their confession of faith and came close ly to the ground held by Cumberland Presbyterans. We are to surrender noth- ing in doctrine, If we go into the union, the platform is to be broad enough for both churches.
 "The Rev. Frank Wear of lnsley is member of the assembly, he left today | for Dallas He favors the union I be- lieve if union can be had on the terms of the report 1t will be for the good of the world, and the SGlory of God. scarcely expect the matter to go through | at this assembly. It may lie over for a year in the hands of the committed"

SPECIMEN FOUND NEAR MERlD- IAN WAS SENT AWAY FOR Ex- .AMINATIoN-RESIDENcE OF CHARLES TEAMS IS BURNED.

Meridian, Miss, May 16.-(Special.) The supposed Mexican boil weevil brought into Meridian from Newton county last Thursday iS not the boil weevil nor even a member of that family. This fact has been established beyond a doubt, and will be welcome news to the cotton men and planters of this section.
 On account of the interest felt in the matter here the insect was sent to the crop pest commission in Shreye- port, La, and an answer was received today regarding the insect, which set ties the fact that the boil weevil has not yet invaded eastern Mississippi.

JeweIry Designs From Living Models.

From the Jewellers Circular Weekly
 At Weimar. where, since the days of Goethe, artistic tastes have Seen cultivat- ed under the patronaP Of the grand dukes. some artistically inclined ladies re- gently had the clever and original idea of representing a number of objects of the industrial arts by living tableaux. This idea was carired into effect with much taste and the ladies taking part in the representation were greatly applaud ed
 To represent, for instance, a seal in gilt bronze. two ladies clad in dresses of the color of bronze were posed, bent over a Chinese bowl. in imitation of modern ln- dustrial art, which largely makes use of the graceful female figure. Brooches combs, tie pins, pendants. belt buckles etc. were shown in the same way Re- duced by photography into working size, these living pictures form pretty designs for jewelry.
