 ''The ideal arrangement-perhaps the divine ideal-would be for parents in- dividually, or associated with their neigh bors to teach their own sons and daugh- ters. The obligation rests first and inn mediately upon the'family, and the obli- gation ought to be met by those upon who it primarily and chiefly rests But the conditions of life are such as to render the ideal impracticable; parents cannot command the ways and means necessary to the effective discharge of this great duty to their offspring.
 "The state is able to found and equip and operate schools adequate to the purpose. but the state is inhibited by divine and human law, by sound reason and venerable tradition, from teaching religion. It may teach everything else: but this chefest of all topics is distinctly prescribed. The state is. therefore. in- competent to handle the supremest sub ject in all the educational curriculum.
 If. therefore, education is to be given in it's sphercty and completeness, the church must become the teacher; 1t only has the prerogative and the intelligence

Cotton Warehouse Burns.

Greenville, November 15.-(Special)- McBride's warehouse containing 600 or more bales of cotton, was burned yes- terday, entailing considerable loss to many who had no insurance on their cotton. When the fire was discovered strenuous efforts were made to control it, before 1t made good headway, but it spread so rapidly that by the time the fire companies reached there it was be- yond control. The warehouse was sur rounded by other buildings, but the fire was confined to the one building. Four men from the country, who slept in the building, stated that when they awoke they found the cotton burning and tried to smother it with their quilts

Professor Hall Speaks.

''The Presbyterian College and the Pres byterian Ministry" was the subject of an address by the Rev. w. T. Hall of the Alabama seminary. in which humor and deep thought abonnded.
 After a few introductory remarks he spoke of the relation of the church col lege to the supply of ministers for the future. lanenting the decrease in a9pi cants and attributing it to the fact that SC many of our southern colleges per ished in the great civil conflict .aong which were Ogiethorpe university Oak land and La Grange.
 Going further he stated the kind of min isters and the kind of colleges needed to produce them in the future, believing that the only gospel for the solution is to teach men to be witnesses for Christ. Dr. Hall then briefly reviewed the doc trines of the church and the Calvinlstic creed. which withstood Rome and the French revolution. he thought should be taught now to the young men in order to withstand the assaults of the mod ern elements"

BURNED TO DEATH
 UP ON LOOKOUT
Mrs. James Teague Meets a Tragic Death-Luther Amos Killed In
 Shafting at Gin.

Ft Payne November 15.-(Special)- )- Mrs. Teague, wife of James Teague. who lives near Cagle's Cross Roads, on Look out mountain. near here, died Sunday as the result of burns received on Sat urday.
 The particulars of the accident are not known, as the unfortunate woman was so badly burned she could not tell the details. MT. Teague went to the field. leaving his wife sitting before the fire, with the baby in her lap. A few minutes after he left the house he saw his wife running toward .him in flames. When he got her back to the house he found the baby lying on the bed and, from appearances it had been thrown there, from which it is supposed that when the mother found herself on fire she threw the baby on the bed and ran to her husband for help. She was buried at Walkers Chapel on Monday.
 A deplorable accident occurred at the High Point gin last Friday morning in which Luther Amos met death in hor- rible manner. The young man, who was employed at the gin, attempted to replace a belt on a moving pulley when his fin gers were caught and he was quickly hurled round and round the shafting, one arm being torn off at the shoulder, both legs below the knees, broken in many places, and his body crushed and mangled frightfully.
 As soon as possible the machinery was stopped and the unconscious form re- moved from the shafting. Notwithstand- ing the terrible injuries received, the young man regained consciousness and lived about thirty minutes after the acci- dent

WAR ON UNDERWRITERS.
Chicago Labor Unions Hostile Over
Casket Discrimination.

CHICAGO, March 19.-The Chicago Fed
Grafton of Labor has declared war on the
Chicago Undertakers' Association. brand
ing the body a trust of the worst order
The open declaration of hostilities was
made at yesterdays meeting of the Cen
trail Labor body. After lengthy discus
sion of the subject these conclusions were
arrived at by the delegates to the meeting;
No union man shall purchase n non
union casket or assist In paying FOR
nonunion casket for a member of his fam
lily or a friend No cinion man shall act as
pallbearer at a funeral where a nonunion
casket Is used.
When the services of an undertaken are
his duty as trades unionist to tell the
members of the bereaved family how to
secure a union casket.
An investigation of the methods OF acting
and prices charged by the members of the
Chicago Undertakers' Association shall be
made at once and ways and means OF sup
pressing the trust found.
The subject came up at the meeting
when a communication from the wood
workers union was read. which contained a
comp laint because OF the supposed discrin-
ination of the undertakers against union
made Baskets A price list was attached,
showing that union caskets ranged in
prices from s. to $40 Undertakers. accord
Ing to the same information, charge any

practical start by the department. There
are simple methods of seed selection that
viii insure a steady Improvement in each
successive crop, and that will prevent the
crops from deterioratiug. The selection OF
seed takes a little care and intelligence, bat
II Is not deeply abstruse work. and the de-
partment has reduced 1t to simple directions
that are easy for any planter to follow.
The cotton belt so called. in the United
States is clearly defined. Cotton is planted
over the whole OF II. so that there Is no
large addition of range to the plant likely.
1t is true that the acreage within the belt
could possibly be doubled. but that Is not
the thing the department is after. Good
cotton land now yields 400 to 500 pounds to
the acre. What the department would like
IL to see this yield doubled in value and In
quantity. The foundation for this Increase
is now firmly laid. and If the planters will
cooperate with the department to even
reasonable degree the value of the whole
cotton crop In the United States can be
vastly enhanced without planting a single
additional acre. and there Will still be
enough land available in the cotton belt to
assure the United States of its supremacy
in the cotton world for many years to come.
