Brethren Who Dwell in Unity.

Winrsboro, December 5.-On last
Sunday morning, Rev. J. N. Holiday,
former pastor of the Presbyterian
church at Manning, preached at
Winnsboro. at Zion Presbyterian
church, to which he has been called
and of which he will be installed as
pastor next Sunday.
His text WAS Bear one another's
burdens and so fulfill the law CT Christ. "
He handled his subject with grace:
point and forcible exposition, and his
large congregation listened with the
closest and most Jealous attention.
On Sunday night at the same church,
Rev. Holiaday was most warmly vel
coined by the pastors of this place, to
the Christian community and homes
and hearts and fellowship OF all the de-
nominations.
Rev. J. L. Freeman of the Baptist
church greeted Rey. Holiday in most
cordial terms, inviting him to his
church and to his home ard to the
homes of his congregation, and finally
clasped the hand of the distinguished
divine with the tenderest words of well
come and fellowship.
Rev. c.. E. Mcdonald of the Asso-
ciate Reformed Presbyterian church
then arose and with dignity and grace
gave his and his church's welcome to
Rev. J. NJ. Holladay. The former
claimed the latter's people as his peo-
pie, because of their almost entire
unity of faith and doctrine. But above
all, his claim that the Presbyterians
here were his people was founded on
the fact that he had for Syears shared
with them their joys and sorrows, had
been with them in af1iction and trou-
BILE and the brotherhood of sorrow
brings about "One faith, one Lord and
one baptism"
Rev.J. NJ. Holiday was noticeably
affected by this sincere demonstration
OF Christian love and welcome: he was
not prepared in speech for 1t, but he
res bonded with heart too fnll Tor
wordy utterance.
It was an affective scene, this meet
ing together of brethren IN unity, and
the entire community felt the uplift Of
noble impulse and purpose which this
cordial welcome awoke in their hearts.
At the commencement OF these inter-
estine exercises the Presbyterian choir
sang a voluntary number, 'Not Spar
row Falleth." It was well and feel
ingly rendered. The piece consisted
mainly of an alto solo, which was sung
by Miss Ella Beatty, with a clearness
and beauty of expression seldom heard
in q village choir. A tenor solo, by MIR.
J. G. McCants, was enjoyed by all.
After the above welcome, and after
Rev. J. NJ. Holladay was introduced to
the large audience, composed OF many
persons from the different 6enomina-
tons in town, he preached sermon on
the reasonableness of the service OF
God, which God&requires of man With
rapid citations, with ease and fuency,
he showed that the service of God was
above any other service, a reasonable
service. His style was luminous, con-
vincing and appealing and the entire
discourse received the closest attention
from mis- large audience.
After the benediction by Rev. J. L.
Freeman, the service closed.

HIDE FEES; LOSE MONEY.
Consuls Who Did Not Report Re.
cedpts In Full Receive Smaller
Salaries as a Result,

Washington, May 23.-One of the
unexpected results Of the consular re-
organization act Is the discontinue
Of consular officers who have been con.
cealing the actual amount OF the tees
Of their Offices.
The practice was not tishonsst IN
pne sense, for the consuls ~ IN many
eases permitted to retain Ill such
fees, but for the sake Of TN records
Of the department and to enable the
oficials to know the state Of business
OF the consulates 1t was required that
all such fees should be recorded.
Some consuls feared that to publish
the amount they received would b.
to make their posts too attractive to
Office seekers. 80 they failed to make
the full returns.
Their punishment came when con.
gress passed the reorganization act on
the basis OF substitution Of lump sala-
ries for the combined salary and fee
system of compensation. There was
no Intention of reducing the compensa-
ton Of many Of the consuls, but 1t has
followed that those who failed to re: re.
turn their full fees have suffered .
substantial reduction.

BURTON CASE IS TAKEN up
SENATE TO INVESTIGATE LEGAL
EFFECT OF DECISION.
Committee Will Recommend Action
Necessary-Echo of Railroad
Rate Bill.

Washington, May 23.-The senate
Tuesday directed the committee on
privileges and elections to investigate
the effect of Mondays decision by the
supreme court in the case of Senator
Burton. The resolution was offered
by Senator Hale and read as follows:
Resolved, That the committee on
privileges and elections be directed
to examine into the legal effect of the
late decision of the supreme court in
the case OF, Joseph R. Burton, sena-
tor from Kansas, and as soon as may
be to report their recommendations
as to what action, if any, shall be
taken by the senate
The resolution was adopted without
debate.
The railroad rate bill found an
early echo in the senate when Sena-
tor McCumber rose to question of
personal privilege to make reply to
q publication in the New York Trib-
une charging that one of the North
Dakota senators would accomplish
the defeat of certain purposes Of the
bill. The amendment was described
In the newspapers as Little joker"
and it was represented that by
changing the word Regularly" to the
word Lawfully" common carriers
would be enabled to disregard the or
ders Of the commission. It was stated
that the senator had admitted that
such would be the result, Senator
McC umber said that he had never
made any such admission nor any ad.
mission that would seem to be OF
that character. He expressed the
opinion that II there had been any
"Joke" on: any one it was on the
writer Of the article, but he regarded
1t a. rather a slur on the committee,
which had accepted 1t and to the
lawyers Of the senate. none OF whom
had detected any overt character in
It. He also said that the amendment
could Rot have any effect like that
indicated and he did not understand
how any person with the slightest
reasoning power could have reached
the conclusion arrived at by the
writer Of the article.
To meet an imperative emergency
that the federal court may not be
obliged to adjourn for the lack Of
funds the house committee on appro
prfations Tuesday reported an urgent
deficiency bill making available fol
immediate 100000 Of the unexpendet
appropriation Of 1905, for the pay
ment OF witnesses and Jurors. The
bill also contains an appropriation Of
/ $25, 900 to pay the expenses Of open
Ing certain Indian reservations, which
according to existing law must be
opened before the beginning Of the
next fiscal year. This amount Is Is

OF DOMINGO REVOLT
FORMER PRESIDENT TRYING
TO REGAIN CONTROL OF
WEST INDIAN REPUBLIC.
NAVAL OFFICIAL TO
MAINTAIN NEUTRALITY
Commander Switzerland Given Full
Authority to Deal with Situation
-Rumor of Attempt to Ship Arms
from Porto Rico.

Washington, May 2S.-Disquieting
advices received by the state depart
ment relative to revolutionary move
ments In the West Indies, directed
against the administration of Presi-
dent Caceres of Santo Domingo, led to
conference Tuesday between officials
of the state and navy departments.
Details Of these movements are vague
and are difficult of access, but it is
gathered that in substance they indi-
cate that ex-President Morales, who
for some time had disappeared from
the scene of activity, is now at or
near ST. Thomas and is making de-
termined effort to expel Caceres and
regain the presidency of santo Do
mingo.
Some of the leaders who were in
strumental in ejecting Morales from
Office are reported to be now on his
side and many rumors have been re-
ceived of purchases of arms and gath
ering of revolutionists in ports ada
cent to Santo Domingo.
To Enforce Neutrality Laws.
The navy department has forwarded
to Commander Switzerland on the
Yankee, such information as 1t has re-
ceived through the state department,
leaving him full discretion to deal with
the situation. The recent concentra-
ton of the vessels uadar this officers
command at the Dominican ports, and
particularly the naval movements
toward the north side Of the island IL,
the peighborhood of Monte Cristi
where Fevolutionists are reported to
be in the nearby mountains, are
taken as an indication that Com
mander Switzerland had already
heard Of the revolutionary activity an6
is taking steps to strictly enforce the
| American neutrality laws and prevent
the landing of any munitions of war.
/ It appears that President Jiminez
is taking an active part in these
movements and he has recently ad.
dressed several letters to Secretar,
Root containing long arguments tt
demonstrate the justice of permitting
him and his party to make an unim
peded effort to regain control of thu

closely watched by the authorities

against San Domingo are being

of this expedition are expected to EN-
bark from Porto Rico about the mid
die of next week.
