BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION.
A Large Attendance Some Interesting Statis-
tics OF tho Work OF tho Denomination.

.
eighty-fourth annual session of the
Baptist State Convention was called
to order by President Charles A..
Smith at 8 O'clock this evening. The
auditorium was filled to its utmost
capacity; probably $50 to 600. The
annual sermon was preached by Rev.
Lewis Nj. Roper, of the First Church,
Spattanburg. He read the sixth
chapter of Romans. Text, Romans,
chapter G, verses 1918.
-. The convention then organized,
delegates being present. Upon
motion of A. j. S. Thomas, President
Smith was unanimously re- e-elccted !;
A. @. Osborne and l.. G. Hinton
were chosen vice-prcsidents; secre-
tarics, C. p. Erwin and V. |. Mas

treasurer.
John Bass Shelton, pastor of the
Chester church, made an address of
welcome, and the president called
upon Louis Bristow to respond.
TIE MINISTER'S CONFERENCE.
The Ministers Conference held
two sessions. Several papers were
read. j. B. Parrott, of Clinton, pre-
sented a comprehensive paper on the
preachers duty toward civic life, in
which he referred to the dispcnsary
as immoral, debasing, un. Christian,
mob law outrage on civilization
and never justified by any crime.
The wanton disregard for human
life is appalling. 1t is his belief that
jurics are bought, and thus justice
prostitutcd. Crime is rampant in
the State, and the law or the judici-
ary impotcnt. The preachers duty
is clear to all, he said, and he be-
lieves the pulpit is doing its duty.
T.. G. Hickson, of Gaffney, declared
that men will permit the Gospel to
be applied everywhere, except in
politics and voting. They draw the
line there. The dispensary long ago

Fool Killer 8 smo,hers Nlssen.

I Chicago, November 3O.-Petor
Nissen is believed to have other
smothered or frozen to death in his
rolling balloon "Fool Killer g." in
which he started tor a trip across the
lake yesterday. The opinion that
Nissen vas lost became general this
afternor, when it was found that
after "a hours of silence there was
still absolutely no word from the
inventor, who some years ago shot
the whirlpool rapids of Niagara Fails
in barrel. He has not been sighted
by any vessel. He has not, so far as
is reported, drifted ashore at any
point. His relatives have heard
nothing. Possibility of Nissen's
smothering to death was considered
more definitely when it was learned
that his only supply of air was that
pumped into the Fool Killer before
the craft was launched. 1t was said
by Nissen's brothers, however, that
tho navigator had computed his air
supplyscarefully and figured that it
would last him for great number OF
hours.
NISSEN FOUND.
Stevcnsville, Mich, December -
Potter Nsscn, who started across
Lake Michigan in his boat called the
'Fool Killer No. B." was found dead
on the beach, two miles and half
west of here to-day. Nissen is sup
posed to have been washed ashore
during the night. His "fool killer"
was about twenty rods down the
beach from the body and was con-
sidcrably damaged. a life preserycr
and his overcoat were fastened to the
basket. shaped car in the boat. Mis-
sens hands and face are frozen and
the features reflect his suffering.
The clothing on the body was some.

made in 1854 reads. "And all girls be
excluded as improper and inconsistent
with such a grammar school as We law
%injoins and is the designe. Of this set

New England scloolmaster Of many
years service, has left the following
interesting memorandum: 'In all my
school days, Which ended in 1901, I
saw but three females in public
schools in my life, and they were only
in the afternoon to learn to write"
Mr.. Nudge neglects tt say, however,
that the girls were permitted not only
to the writing lessons. but they were
also privileged to attend the general
annual catechising.

WHAT SULPHUR DOES.
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease.

The mention of sulphur will recall
to many of us the early days when
our mothers and grandmothers gave
us our daily dose of sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall. =,
1t was the universal spring and fan
"blood purifier" tonic and cure-all,
and mind you, this old-fashioned rem
edy was not without merit.
The idea was good. but the remedy
was crude and unDalatable, and q
large quantity had to be taken to get
any effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects of sulphur in a palatable, con-
centrated form. so that single gram
is far more effective than table
spoonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years, research and eX-
pertinent have proven that the best
sulphur for medicinal use is that OBJ
tanned from Calcium Calcium Sulph-
ide) and sold in drug stores under
the name of Stuart'S Calcium waters.
They are small chocolate coated pei
lets and contain in the active medici-
nal principle of sulphur in hlghIy
concentrated, effective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bodily vigor and
health; sulphur acts Directly on the
liver, and eXecretory organs and purl-
fies and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dosed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
ers of sulphur were often worse than
the disease, and cannot compare with
the modern concentrated preparations
of sulphur, of which StuartS Calcium
Waters is undoubtedly the best and
most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
constipation and purify the blood in
q way that often surprises patient and
physician alike.
DR.. r. M. Wilkins while expert
menting with sulphur remedies soon
found that the sulphur from Calcium
was superior to any other form. He
says: For liver. kidney and blood
troubles, especially when resulting
from constipation or malaria, l have
been surprised at the results OBJ
tanned from Stuart's Calcium Waters.
In patients suffering from boils and
pimples and even deep-seated car
buncles, [ have repeatedly seen them
