MANY CHANGES AMONG THE PASTORS.
Rev. c. Wyatt Leaves Bethesda Church 10 Harr
son Street, Wilmington


After being in session since Wednesday
of last week. the Wilmington M. E. Con-
ference adjourned Monday night.
On the districts outside OF Wilmington
there were numerous changes made and
OH the Salisbury district it appeared as if
comparatively few men had been left in
their old places. There were also changes
in number of other places. In Will
mington and on the Wilmington district
the changes were few.
A. w. Lightbourne comes to Middle
and G. T. Wyatt, who has been at Be-
thesda NJ. E. Church for the past three
years, and who is an excellent young
preacher, was sent to Harrison street,
Wilmington.
Session Was Busy
The session OF conference Monday was
one of the busiest which has yet been
held, and for time it was expected that
the appointments would not be made
until Tuesday and the conference once
practically decided to adjourn after the
session in the afternoon until Tuesday
morning. Bishop Goodsell sent word
however that the appointments would be
ready for the evening session and adjourn
ment was therefore made until that time.

The date of the Presidents departure
for the Southwest and his hunting trip
has not yet been announced but now
that Congress is off his hands it is prob
able that he will make it as early as
possible. Nobody who knows the Presi-
dent will doubt that lie is eager for the
change from weddings, dinners, and
Cabinet meetings, from paved streets and
flags and the tipping of many hats, from
a dress and set smile for the idylllc
woods and the society of the cowboy
wherea billed shirt and a razor have
never penetrated. There with mustang
and his gun he can WOO forgetfulluess OF
that balky steed, Congress, which ha 8

DECIIIoN MINES.

Further particulars are now learn
Ell regarding the strike on the Decii-
ion group of claims at Gold Center.
Reports of n strike have been made
for some time past, but the exact To-
cation and details have been hereto
fore kept secret.
Assays have been taken showing
1.s00 ounces in silver and $25 in gold
to the ton, or 1897 to the ton in gold
and silver. The ledge is four inches
wide on the top and at a depth OF
twenty feet has opened up to a width
of fourteen inches. Five men are now
at work on the property. 1t is intend
ed to sink 100 feet, crosscut 200 feet
or more and then stope up. The metal
is found in a regular contact vein
with lime on one side and q~uartzite
on the other. The colorings have been
traced for a considerable distance, but
the ledge opened up for only a few
feet.
Hen. Geo. ID. Meiklejohn, ex-secre-
tary of navy under President Nc
Kinley, is financing the property and
former Secretary of War Alger is also
interested. Diedrich Wiggers is the
man who made the strike and is the
local manager. Mieklejohn visited the
property personally before purchasing.
He is a practical mining man and is
said to he heavily interested in mines
in Mexico. It is expected to increase
the force Of men at work as soon as
there is room to work them.
The name Of the company is the
Decilion Gold Mines, Ltd.

of Gold.
(Beatty Bullfrog Miner.)
Teams will today begin hauling on
q 45-ton shipment of ore from the
Montgomery Shoshone mine north
ward. 1t will go to Salt Lake for
treatment via Tonopah and Reno.
Over 700 sacks of gold and silver bear
ing tale are now piled up at the mine,
half of which will probably go $4,000
per ton. On the dump are several
hundred tons of rich but lower grade
ore which will he held for completion
of the mill.
All this ore has been taken out in
process Of development. Tunnel No. 9
is in wei 200 feet and has three
crosscuts a%ggregating 20 feet, all in
high grade milling ore. The $4,000 ore
is being taken from the bottom of the
shaft, now down over 20 feet. Super
intendent Mat. Hoveck, who is a con
.servative man, estimates that the first
class ore will bring over $1,000 per
ton.
Thirty men are employed at the
mine. The new ore house is nearing
completion and a bunk house 14x70
will be erected.
Vice-President and Consulting En-
gineer Malcolm A. Macdonald left

ment of the bonanza mine.

Laurens Advertiser.
One more word about this cotton
acreage reduction and that word if,
Raise something else.
Cotton production will never be
reduced materially until the people
learn to produce something besides
cotton. The farmers will live better
and have more and get richer by
producing what they and their stock
consume than by producing cotton
only at Is cents the pound.
So long as farmer does not learn
how to diversity, how to raise hay
and grain and potatoes and peanuts
and fruits and pigs and chickens, be
will continue to raise cotton regard
less of resolutions and speeches.
II the farmers in the South this
year produce 100000 bales of
cotton, it will mean one or two
things, either that the claim that
cotton cannot be produced with
profit at six cents the pound is false
or that the farmers, as class, have
not yet learned to act with common
business sense.
In this Up-Country, the farmers
dive, sify vastly more than they did
few years ago and that is why so
many of them are in comfortable
and independent positions. That is
why they have been able to hold
cotton this winter.
The problem of farming is plain
at least one principle of it is. We
have stated it time and again. The
farmers "plant," ibis mules, his
laborers, his wagon, his tools-must
work all the time. When cotton
mill shuts dow n for a week, it loses
tremendously. When farms shuts
down for week it loses tremendous
ly. II The Advertiser rested six
weeks in the wear it would die. This
is the infexible rule of business. The
farmer who has but one crop must
keep his plant idle a large part OF
the time and cotton will never rise
to price that can make good for
such idleness-not in this Cp Coun-
try where cotton alone cannot be
produced in competition with the
farms of Marlbaro county and the
Mississippi Delta.
