out the writer tails to put his readers in posi-
ton to judge of the nature or significance of the
action as whole Was not this effort at union a
failure like the previous efforts? Were these reso-
lutions straight-out declarations or were thew
part OF another proposed joint resolution? Even
II they are IN these reiterations of confessional
statements, their value is very much discounted
by the fact that while they have always held to
these statements in theoretical way, their prac-
tice does not seem to us to have been consistent
with them. Their actions, which speak louder
than words, go to show that they have a way of
reconcillng their practice with their doctrinal
views which Is not apparent to the unntated
lhe Assembly of this year (Ioo6) entertained DO
htical resolutions against Reed Smoot and the
Mormons. Now, supposing it to be true that
the MOrmonS "violators of law" and a Urea
sonable organization how can court of the
Church pass upon such subject without getting
out of its sphere and invading the sphere of the
State? How they decide such question in,
tell1genty without making themselves a political
debating society like the Assemblies of or and
o5! What does it signify that they say in such
a resolution that of 1887 that Church councils
are not to intermedde with civil affairs which
concern the commonwealth" if nevertheless they
seek to bring to bear strong pressure the State
to pass certain political decisions by speaking in
the name OF their constituency citizens of this
government 1t makes not particle of differ
ence that they say, I'VE earnestly petition the
Senate, it is demand all the same; and it is
demand which they have right to make for
they have no authority to speak for their people
as citizens. Such authority has been given
to the Assembly either by God or man.
Such action is worthy of only a DO
htical church like that of Rome. 1t is usurped
authority, and its natural tendency is to lead to
greater INVASION OF civil rights. Now, suppose
the proposed council is set up, with one of its
principle functions to give advice, how long will
1t be before that body will begin to pass just such
political resolutions, and to speak for the South
ern Presbyterian Church of the confederate
ed churches well the other six. And how
long will 1t take the Southern Church to conclude
that talthfuness to her divine Lord that requires
her to pull out of union too hastily and incon-
siderately entered? The Articles do establish
real federation by erecting a court with perma-
nent powers, and federation is form of organic
union. Is it not the part of wisdom to avoid
entangling alliances with a church which differs
from us so widely in her conception of the proper
sphere of the Church? Let the experience of the
Presbyterian Church in this country in the first
third OF the nineteenth century be studied as it
wrestled with the evils produced by a similar
council, and it will be an effective preventive to
an entrance into this movement under present
conditions.

dissolved by water some additional
agent is required for it's due re-
mOval.
For this purpose soap is employed,
as it renders the unctuous product of
the skin freely misclble with water.
Not only does soap aid in cleansing
the skin, but itmay directly influence
health. ''The use of soap" says the
famous hygienist, DR.. Wilson OF
London, England, certainly is cal
culated to preserve the skin in health,
to maintain It's complexion and tone,
and prevent it from falling into
wrinkles. "
But there are soaps and soaps
some decidedly beneficial to the skin,
others positively injurious. Purity of
ingredients is one of the requisites of a
proper toilet soap. Only soap made
from pure vegetable oil, thoroughly
sponifed, should be used upon the
body. Soap containing free alkalt or
other irritating material is injurious
to the skin.
The medicinal soap is no longer an
experiment, but is already widely
used. This soap is in the strictest
/ sense of the term a medicinal soap.

Soap contains only three ingredients
-quilla bark, this making the soap
excellent for shampooing and shaw
ing, and for use in badness, falling
hair, scald-head, milk-cruSt, dandrutf
and all scalp diseases; cocoa oil, one
of the purest oils of commerce and
containing no substance deleterious to

wallis paper, in noting the defeat by
the South Carolina senate of the Dill

that state, takes occasion to express
its views on the method of dealing
with the liquor traffic. It's comments,
which are of some local interest, fol-

THE people lof South Carolina

bars and they realized that prohibit

''The experiment of a state going IN
to liquor selling is one that is repug-
nant to the simple democratic ideas OF

allowing towns and counties to dip
into the dispensary business. Indeed,
it has been charged that The Carolina

Governor Terrell has received let
ter from DR.. w. B. Burroughs OF
Brunswick, one of Georgia's best
known educators and scholars, call
ing attention to wonderful discovery
reported by the Daily News to have
been made a few days ago on Little
Island, near Beaufort, S. c., by Pro-
fessor Moore of the Academy of Nat
ural Sciences of Philadelphia.
Professor Moore located on this is
land large Indian mound, above
which large trees were growing. Upon
digging into this mound for depth
of Is feet or more he came upon what
he found to be the remains of an an
cient temple believed to have been bur
led for centuries.
The conclusion from this find is that
the sea islands along the coasts Of
Carolina and Georgia were inhabited
by a prehistoric race, and that a
search of other coast islands would
develop other traces of such inhabi-
tants who were here, it is believed,
not only before the discovery of Amer
lea, but prior to the coming of the In
dams to this section.
]. G. w. deBrahm, surveyor gener-
al for King George II for his southern
provinces in North America, writes in
his report made in 1853, DR.. Burroughs
says, OF the vestings of ruins of an
cient homes discovered on the island
of Demetrius on the South Newport
river, upon which he found an en-
trenchment mile and a quarter long
and many ruins of ancient homes,
proving a settlement before the seven
teenth century. deBrahm further
stated that no CarOlinian or Georgian
could give any information regarding
these ruins. Pots and other earthen-
ware vessels have been discovered on
these islands 10 to 80 feet under

after advising with a former resident
of Athens.
SIN Georgia the dispensary idea IS
getting more popular. Each year
separate bills are passed to allow the
counties to try the experiment Ath-
ems. Rome and Dawson are towns
where dispensaries have fourished
and have made big money. The rad
ical prohibitionists oppose them, and
the liquor men as a rule do not look
upon them with favor. In spite OF
that they steadily increase. Prominent
statesmen have remarked in Georgia
that the local dispensary seems to be
the solution of the liquor question, for
they are tired of prohibition, with its
blind tigers and its attendant evils.
The experience of South Carolina,
however, does not tend to confirm the
excellence of that institution. The
idea is municipal ownership run to
dangerous extreme. Worse than the
control of public utilities is the as
sumption of sumptuary laws. The
state did not buy up private proper
ty. but cOnfscated it, or rather wiped
out private business and then started
it on it's own hook. The dispensary
is an extreme form of Hearstism."

HAS COOKING STOVE MANIA.

Pensioner in Poor House Has a
Queer Fad to Satisfy.
From the county poor house OF
Muscogee another good story comes.
Among the inmates is an old woman
whose hobby is buying cooking
stoves. She gets pension from the
state of Georgia-there are several
pensioners in the Muscogee poor
house, by the way-and this money
she spends every year on stoves. Dur
ing the year she sells the stoves at
reduced rates, collecting on the in
stallment plan, and thus it is losing
proposition. A few days ago she re-
ceived her pension from the state, and
forthwith proceeded to buy a large
and handsome stove, which was sent
out to the poor house.

TOWN DESTINED TO DROWN
TO BE Overwhelmed BY RES
ERVOIR AND WIPED OUT.
LYONS. a FIourishing Colorado Town
Given Fours Years in Which to
Prepare for Its Destruction.

A lively little Colorado town has
been sentenced to death. 1t is to have
four years of grace. Then they are
going to drown it.
Lyons is a fourishing village OF
about 800 inhabitants, % miles from
Denver, with which it has direct rail-
way connection. 1t was started about
% years ago, and seems good for ten
times % years to come. 1t is solidly
built, with stone church, stone houses
and public buildings. 1t has fire
department, telephone system and is
piped for water and for acetylene gas,
which it manufactures.
1t is in the center of fertile valley,
raising big crops of alfalfa, wheat,
corn, sugar beets and fruit. Four
years from now the place will be I'M
der 24O feet of water.
There is only one chink in the hills
surrounding the basin where the town
is built. Through this chink flows the
St. Vrain river. The thing is too
tempting. A dam, 1900 feet long at
its top and 250 feet high at its greatest
elevation, will close that outlet and
store up 10000, 100000 cubic feet of
water. A company to be capitalized
at S5,OOO,0 900 is getting exceedingly
busy, and when they have remodeled
that corner of Colorado it's own moth
err nature won't know it.
The assessed valuation of the town
which is to be consigned to this watery
grave is S67, 900, and the total value
of tho farming country which will be
flooded is about $500, 900. The pro-
moters of the big scheme think they
can well afford to throw money to the
fishes.
An acre foot of water enough to
cover an acre of land to depth Of Y
inches) is considered necessary for the
proper irrigation of land during one
season. According to government
rates water is worth from 1876 to
S6. SO per acre foot. One-half the ca
pacity of the reservoir, therefore,
would realize from $780, 900 to $3.50, 900
year.
Only one-half of the stored supply
will be used per year, except in sea-
sons of extreme drought. AS the lake
formed by the reservoir will have a
large area-submerging $500 acres of
land-half it's cubic contents can be
withdrawn without materially chang
ing the shore line, which follows the
windings of the hills.
This IS important, because a great
summer resort is to be built on the
banks of the new lake. 1t will be
new sort of phoenix, rising not out of
the ashes, but out of the drowned re-
mains of we'll known resort, Noun
tain Meadow Park, which will disap-
pear along with the town OF Lyons.
The new reservoir will enable its
promoters to irrig8te arid lands which
are now at too high level to receive
the natural supply. 1t will also run
great power plant which is included
in the plans.
The st. Vrain reservoir will be one
of the largest in the United States,
though the Croton reservoir and the
big one near Boston have a greater
capacity, and the Roosevelt dam on
Salt river, Arizona; the Pathfinder in
Wyoming and the Shoshone in Idaho,
a i under way by the government, will
be larger But the ST. Vrain will cost
less than any of these.

Dire Predictions for the Year 1905.

Lee spangler, who styles himself
the last of the prophets" has come
TO the front with his annual prophe-
cies for the coming year. some of
which, as printed by the Baltimore
Sun, are as follows:
The dissolution of Russia.
The assassination of the Car of
Russia.
The assassination of the Sultan of
Turkey.
The prevention of three wars by
President Roosevelt.
a protracted race war in the south.
Destructive spring floods in the
United States.
destructive eruption of Mount
Vesuvius.
The activity of Nouns PeIee AMI
Popocatepetl
Volcanic eruptions in all parts Of
the world.
The eruption of many volcanoes
now supposed to be extinct
Great loss of life at sea by storms.
Destruction of two western cities by
cyclones.
Earthquakes in all parts of the
world.
Destructive earthquakes in Califor-
MIA and the Philippines.
Rebellion in Spain.
Great disturbances all over Europe.
Spangler says further that the sum-
mer of 1906 will be hot and sultry
throughout the temperate zone, with
a high death rate.
That Christ will make His spirit felt
among the peoples of the United
States and England, in which coun-
tries there are to be fervent religious
and potent political movements, which
are to overcome in geat degree the
present spirit of graft and CONNER
cialism.
That the United States will continue
as a world power ana the leader of
other nations.
That Pennsylvania is to have an
administration Of the people and that
discoveries Of corruption will be made
which will drive some of the guilty
to suicide.
That God will wreak terrible venge-
ance upon the Russians for the mas
sacre of the Jews.
Spangler has attracted considerable
attention by his prophecies in the past
and, in consequence, has quite a fol-
lowing, who believe that his power is
a Divine gift. Among his most no
table prophecies, which came to pass,
are the death of Queen Victoria, the
assassination of President Mckinney.
the Chicago theatre fire, the defeat of
the Russians by the japanese, the cleo
ton of President Roosevelt and the
General Slocum disaster in the North
river at New York.
