Dunkards In Spartanburg.

Spartanburg, April A-Very few
people Of this county are aware of the
fact that the Dunkards are at our
doors. They have actually begun the
erection Of meeting house in the up.
per part Of this county. If their
doctrines should generally prevail
there is going to be trouble for some
one. For instance, they teach and
believe that brethrcn should no. go TO
law with each other, but that all dis
puted matters should be referred to
the church for settlement. They also
believe in amounting and praying for
the sick. They say they get these
practices from an old book that they
take as the foundation Of their faith
and practice.
They teach another doctrine which,
if adopted by all the churches would
work a great uphcaval in society.
This is, they believe in paying debts
and if any Que Of their Society refuses
to pay an honest debt, whether due to
one Of .hc brethren or an outsider,
after being duly admonished, he is
excluded from the brotherhood. They
sill not hold fellowship with such a
man. If this rule were adopted by
all churches the membership wouli
be greatly reduced.
Very strange people are these same
Dunkards. They believe in not
sparioe water when they baptize.
They leave their Baptist brethren out
Of sight The candidates arc carried
into the pool Of water, where they
kneel. Then they are immersed three
times, face foremost. They practice
trine immersion in common with the
early Church and the Greek Church,
They call it one baptism, just as the
Roman Catholics and other churches
that sprinkle tho water end make an
application each time that one person
of the Trinity is mentioned.
These persons are peculiar in their
sacrament or communion. When the
day is appointed a supper is prepared
in common. Members in good stand
ing surround the table and enjoy the
feast. After that they wash each
Others feet. That being done, they
return to the table and partakc of the
bread and wine.
The Rev George w. Branscom is
the pastor Of the church nearest this
city. It is at Malvin Hill, Polk
County, N. c., about twenty We
miles distant. He is an intelligent,
thrifty farmer that has the respect of
all who know him. They have about
40 members.
There is only one other church of
that faith in Polk County. The gov
ernment OF each church is congrega-
tional, but there is district and q
general council, to which appeals may
be carried. The general council will
meet next month in Bristol, Tenn

Cost Of False Noses.

People sometimes lose their noses
By disease or by accidents, and some
have lost Sthem in war. For poseless
persons the most appropriate organs
are said to be made Of wax, and the
best ones cost about one hundred aud
seventy-6vc dollars, though really
good one :can be got for seventy Eve
dollars. A nose made Of papier- mache
may be bought for FIVE dollars. Noses
made of::tbis material are enameled
and are deceptive; aud, for poor
man, they;are said to answer all the
purposes that are required. Waxen
and paper noses are, in case of disease,
preferable to those made by the plant
ing of flesh on the diseased part, for
several cases have been known where
the trensplanting of the flesh Of the
nose has endangered mems lives

Love and MARRIAGE.

Yet, depend upon it, as you grow
older YOU will see more and more in
stances anu proofs of the reality
and the depth of the love of hus-
bands and wives for each other in
the most ordinary, commonplace
couples. I have heard of marriages
where love has died out from some
canker of seltishncss or worldliness
at its heart, but I have oftener seen
unexpected proofs of love stronger
than death in all sorts of people in
whom I had never before discovered
any signs of sentiment or romance.

Deadly Cotton Pest.

Washington, April 15.-"I predict
that the boil weevil will GROSS the
Mississippi River before this season
Is over, beginning his rayagea in the
State of NJ 'ippi," said Doctor L..
y. Howard, .:h sf entomologist Of the
Department. of Agriculture, in re-
counting the various stages in con-
fict between the cotton growers and
their great enemy.
Louisiana decided that she would
maintain a quarantine along her bor-
der to prevent the insect from cross
ing the Sabine River. The Legisla.
ture authorized most drastic measures;
even the hair Of oolored laborers was
scratched to see il any Judgement had
been provided there, and thousands of
dollars were expended in the patrol.
But it was Of no avail. Seven par
ishes have already been invaded.
The life habits Of no other insect
have been so carefully studied in the
whole history of science. Texas Of
fered reward of $50, 600 to anybody
who would discover way Of eliminat-
ing the pest.
Government appropriations have
grown from $40, 1000 in 1901 to an
emergency appropriation Of $3.50, 900
in 1908, exclusively for the warfare
against this enemy Of an agricultural
crop whose annual value reaches $780,
100000, and whose welfare the pros.
perity of score of industries is in
volved, and almost the life itself Of
large section Of the country.
Towns suffering the worst from this
pest have been transformed from
hourishing communities into deserted
villages. Southern tradesmon selling
out, have advertised on the fence
rails boil Weevil Pricas," so com.
pletely has this affiiction worked it's
way into the thought OF the people
over whose lands it has spread.

Land Of Young Men.

At the close Of the - Ill War, only
the few Jewish residen.. of tho South
had much money. The Southern
soldier was not discharged when sent
home to convalesce from wounds and
disease. Upon recovery, he was again
ip the ranks. He did no! serve three
months, nine montha, two years. lie
served four years. The larger part Of
the men who fought in the Southern
army carried lead or disease ever after.
1t was this impoverished, discouraged,
stricken people whom the outsider
distanced in the race for money. I'm
used to commerce, the Southcrncr not
only saw the property represented by
his slaves pass utterly away, and his
lands ravaged and his houses burned,
but he saw men alien to his region
anticipate him in the daHning oppor
tunilles of a tardily returning pros
perity He became an onlookcr in
the land his blood had watcred.
Others garncrcd as result Of his i'm
povershmcnt.
But not SO now. For the young
Southcrner is forging to the front
So fast that it now is more likely that
he will crowd the strangers out than
that they will seriously rival him. He
has taken leaf out Of the book Of
his rivals, and by the tactics which
have been at least as great factor in
their success as any other is arriving
at prosperity. The Southern tandem
| wedge is boring holes in the lines Of
the opposition. The young Southern
men, often mere boys Of twenty-one
and twenty-five, are running the banks,
the stores, the hotels. They are ex-
plotting great tracts of land, feeding
vast forests into the sawmills. They
are the railroad men, the promoters,
the brokers. Oil wells gush at their
behest, towns rise at their command.
BY men under thirty the greater part
| Of the business Of the South is now
being done. The Northerner who
thinks of emigrating to the South be
cause he believes he can surpass the
natives in business capacity will find
focmcn worthy of his stccl-keen, un.
firing, and full Of the nerve and en-
thusiasm Of youth. The South is tho
new part, the young part, of our do
main. The west has become staid
aud middle aged. The young man has
come to the front in the South, and
with him the South comes into it,
own once more. Leslie Weekly.
