Death Of Mr.. D. w. Smith.
News was received here last Friday
of the death of Mr.. Daniel w. Smith,
which occurred at Dallas. Texas on the
18th instant. The deceased was a ma
tive of York county, and a brother OF
Mr.. Joseph A. Smith Of the Beersheba
neighborhood. He lived In this county
until about 1872 or 1873, when he went
to Texas to escape arrest In connection
with the Kuklux operations. He re-
mained in Texas until some few years
ago when he returned on a visit and
shortly afterward he decided to move
back here Ito spend the remainder OF
his days with his relatives and former
neighbors This was about two years
ago. His health soon gave way, how
ever, and he grew gradually worse un-
til he began to see the end. He left
for Texas about two months ago in the
hope of being benefited by the change;
but there was no improvement. There
was some organic trouble with his
heart. Mr.. Smith was fifty-five years
of age on the 4th day Of last July. He
leaves a widow but no children.

BIBLE SOCIETY MEETING.

The annual meeting Of the York
County Auxiliary of the American Bi-
BILE society, was held in the First Pres
byterian church of Yorkville last Sun
day night In accordance with pre-
yiously published announcement, and
with exercises appropriate to the occa-
sion.
The meeting was made up Of all the
various local congregations, the usual
evening service having been suspend
ed at the various churches because OF
the business i'm hand and although the
attendance was rather smaller than
might have been expected than other
wise, there was a marked interest in
all of the proceedings.
The exercises were opened with the
reading of a Scriptural lesson by Rev.
w. c. Ewart This was followed by
the singing of hymn under the di-
rection of Rev. e. E. Gillespie and
prayer by Rev. DIR. j. l.. Stokes. Then
came a sermon by Mr.. Gillespie on the
general subject of the Bible; but with
more particular attention to the mani
fest evidences of the divine origin Of
this wonderful book.
Mr.. Gilespies sermon was an admir-
able production-clear, logical and con-
yincing. a perfect gem In its way. His
argument rested principally upon two
generally appreciated facts. First: The
human agencies through whom the Bi-
BILE was brought into existence includ-
ed various individuals of various con-
ditions living along during the period
of one thousand or fifteen hundred
wears, and writing without any ade-
nate appreciation Of the Importance
their work would eventually assume,
vet, each contributing perfect part
TO q work which when finally COM
pleted lacked nothing that could be
added and included nothing that could
be taken away. Second: An equally
convincing circumstances Is the no less
generally appreciated fact that the BIZ
bile is possessed Of a popularity that
attaches to absolutely no production OF
known human origin in that there has
never been any necessity for change
in order to secure conformity with
changing conditions. The speaker
talked for more than a half hour, and
his argument throughout was without
a flaw.
After the conclusion Of Mr.. Giles
pie's sermon, Rev. ]. L. Stokes, the
president, called the business meeting
to order, and the members were advis-
ed through the report of the treasurer
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1906-03-27

and depositary what had been accom-
plished during the year. These reports
were read by Mr.. ]. S. Brice, secretary
The report of the treasurer gave an
account of receipts during the year Of
$12913 OF this amount 5000 came
over from last year; $sS6S came from
books sold and $3742 from collections
and donations. or these receipts $90.6S
has been paid to the American Bible
Society on account of books. $50 on
account Of donations. $4.9S for freight
and similar expenses and there Is still
1856 on hand. The report of the de-
positary shows books to the amount Of
$SS.6S sold during the year, $4 worth Of
books given to life members, $1.35 Civ
en- to people unable to buy, and books
to the value of $93.O2 on hand.
The membership fee is so cents per
annum and a canvass among those
present for new memberships resulted
In the securing Of forty-two.
Officers for the ensuing year were
elected as follows:
President-Rev. w. C. Ewart.
Vice Presidents-Rev. DR.. s. A.
Weber, Rev. E. E. Gillespie, Rev. ]. O.

Secretary-Hon. J. s. Brice.
Treasurer and Depositary-Mr. w.
NJ. Kennedy.

Anna McCaw, Mrs. L. B. Foushee.
Upon motion Of Rev. Mr.. Gillespie,
Mrs. Hart, the chairman of this COM
mittee, was elected to a life member
ship in the society.
In connection with his explanation
of the practical operation of the York
County Auxiliary, DR.. Stokes took oc-
casion to call attention to the fact that
good, we'll printed, substantially
bound Bible can always be found at the
store Of Mr.. w. M. Kennedy at the ac-
tual cost Of production, and any indi-
vidual who may desire a Bible without
being able to pay the price Of the same
may, upon application to a member of
the executive committee, secure one
absolutely without cost.

CLOVER. March 27.-For some time

LOOKS LIKE PEACE.
Roosevelt Gets Credit For Settling
Differences at AIueciras.

Differences at Algeciras.
A cablegram was received at the
state department yesterday from Am
bassador White, stating that the Al
geciras conference had practically
reached an agreement upon the ques-
ton of policing Morocco, which was
the most difficult issue before the con-
ference. No details as to the nature OF
the agreement are obtainable.
President Roosevelt and no one else
according to a Washington dispatch
to the Chicago Tribune, is responsible
for the peaceful result at last conced-
ed at the Moroccan conference at AL
geciras. Spain. The facts show that
the president has gathered new laurels
for the American republic and achieved
as great a victory as he did when ne
terminated the Russo-Japanese war.
The conference will reassemble either
today or tomorrow at Algeciras ana
every indication points to its formal
acceptance of the situation which
President Roosevelt and Secretary
Root have evolved.
This solution. deals only with the
character Of the police force which
shall be distributed throughout Moroc--
co for the enforcement of the law and
order, and the preservation OF the in
tegrity of the empire and the open
door therein.
The peaceful outcome of the Alge-
ciras conference may be said to be the
result of eight months labor on the
part of the president.
Morocco resembled Manchuria, the
prize for which two nations, France
and Germany. have been contending:.
The attitude of the president was IN
fluenced partly by the grave possibility
of war between France and Germany
and by the effect such a war would
have on his efforts to restore peace
between Russia and Japan.
With Europe engulfed in war II was
not to be expected that Russia and ia
pan would cease hostilities. The United
States was against any nation when
deliberately provoked war and Presi-
dent Roosevelt only hoped the two
powers would endeavor to deal with
each other i'm a friendly and concila-
tory spirit and ultimately come u
some satisfactory conclusion.
The United States materially wanted
the preservation of the open door In
Morocco. but it had no concern re-
garding the internal affairs OF that
country or the European contention
over 1t.

The York County Auxiliary Of the
American Bible society seems to be
doing a very creditable work as 1t Is,
but with more help 1t could do a great
deal more.
The official notice published in an
other column gives information Of a
big cotton rally to be held in Yorkvlle
next Saturday afternoon. There
should be a large attendance.
Although it is everywhere conceded
that there has been no apparent let up
in the wave Of prosperity that this
section has been enjoying during the
past few years, an examination Of the
papers being lodged in the clerks Of
flee for record, will show that mort
cages, both real estate and chattel,
are not only more numerous but larger
in average amount than for years.
This. to say the least indicates that the
people who have money are finding no
special difficulty in keeping 1t busy.
Although most of the smaller grow
ers have already disposed Of their
cotton holdings, there is still quite a
quantity of cotton in this immediate
vicinity in lots of from ten bales up.
A few weeks ago much Of this cotton
was being readily offered at IL cents,
and any buyer who would have been
willing to pay II cents would have soon
gotten his hands quite full. But since the
local price Of spots mas advanced to
IL cents there has been a noticeable
stiffening in the demands Of holders
and according to the present outlook
it will take still higher figures to bring
out the larger lots. The receipts on
the Yorkville market last Saturday
amounted to about fifty bales.

ninety years old, he is still strong

we saw him while at Ridgeway, he
having come in that day from his
