fession.

RAFT THREATENS VESSELS
Millions of Feet Of Lumber Are

PORTLAND, Ore, May 11.-That the
big log raft which broke adrift from
the steamer Francis H. Leggett off
Crescent City. Cal, while EN- route from
Astoria to San Francisco, Is still adrift
on the high seas is the opinion of the
master of the Leggett, which has re-
turned to Astoria after a fruitless
search for the raft.
Capt Reimer stated that when the
raft broke away hurricane was rag
ing and that he was too busy caring
for the safety of his vessel to pay at
tention to the raft.
When the storm abated he made a
careful search along shore and found
neither the raft nor any piling that
would indicate that the raft had
broken up.
If Capt. Reimer is correct the dere-
lict Is a dangerous menace to naviga-
tion, as it Is several hundred feet long
and about fifty feet in diameter, and
would bring certain disaster to any
craft which might encounter it.

LODGE CHARGES

LATTER WOULD MAKE CHANG
IN CONFESSION
Rev. Or. Samuel T. Carter to Be
Disciplined by Presbytery
of Nassau, Long
Island
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
NEW YORK, May 1.-THE question
of disciplining or of trying on heresy
charges Rev. DR.. Samuel T. Carter who
several years ago became prominent In
an effort to have the Westminster con-
fession revised, was taken up today by
the presbytery of Nassau, L. l.
The meeting was called because OF
letter in which DR.. Carter declares
that he does not believe the Westmin-
ster confession to be the truth of God,
but "an idol of mans invention as
truly as any worshiped in Delhi. Peking
or Africa"
This letter is addressed to the general
assembly of the Presbyterian church,
which meets May Is in Des Moines,
Iowa. The writer terms 1t protest
and confession" The letter is as fol-
lows:
Wants Confession Changed
Fathers and brethren: The Presby-
terry of Nassau overturned the general
assembly a year ago, asking that the
brief statement of doctrine be sub
stituted for the Westminster confession
as the confession of our church.
by practically unanimous vote the
general assembly rejected this overture
and retained the Westminster confess
sion. BY this action Of the assembly
many ministers are compelled to de-
clare their acceptance of confession
which they do not heartily believe, and
many of our best members acknowledge
a creed Of which they are heartily
ashamed.
Appeals From Action
"I appeal from this action of the
assembly to the manliness and honesty
of the ministry and membership of the
Presbyterian church.
MANY years ago, when l was or
dained to the ministry Of the gospel, !
declared In the most solemn manner
that believed the Westminster confess
sion to be the truth of God. l now, in
a very solemn manner declare that I
do not believe 1t to be the truth of
God: that / utterly reject II as a setting
forth of the character Of the Heavenly
Father"
There never was, Is not now and
never win be such God as the West
minister confession.

whether he will offer for the office,

plant or oensure escaped his heroic
lips, Of the pain he suffered, which
might have been spared him, but for
the generous unseltsh sympathy
which prompted him to bestow upon
a sick and poorly clad soldier his
own warm OvercOat.
On Dec. 25, 1864, Christmas day,
the enemy was advancing on Hood s
retreating columns with so much
haste that it was found necessary to
stop him by making stand at An
thongs Hill, nine miles south Of
Pulaski. There Gen. WalthalI, who
was in command, directed Gen. For
rest to make a stand, As Arm
suong's brigade, the best mounted,
and ever ready for the fray, with our
regiment in the rear, and next to the
enemy, prepared for the onslaught,
we met the shock of the advancing
foe with such a furious charge that
the enemy's lines were broken, his
magnificent Columbiad brass can
non taken, and large numbers Of
men and horses were captured by us,
with ammunition, acCoutrements and
clothing, 1t was during this en-
gagement that Charley Scott, who
had suffered so much from cold for
the want of an oyercoat, had the
choice of either capturing a horse,
or an overcoat. lie wisely chose the
latter, but was soon after rewarded
by running into the cedars and up
the mountain a Yankee, who wae
holding a horse, and then capturing
the horse, Whi1h was subsequently
turned over to me in the place Of my
horse, which had been shot from un-
der me and killed during the fight.
And now, Mr. Editor, if you will,
on another occasion, permit me the
use Of your valuable columns, | will
endeavor briefly to inform some Of
the people of Mississippi, who are
not personally acquainted with
Charley Scott some Of the things he
has done since the termination of the
war between the States, and which,
in my humble judgment, are more
meritorious and of greater benefit to
the people Of this great common
wealth than were his deeds of valor
as a soldier. /. P. YERqER.

Conditions in the Philippines.

The report of the Philippine commits
sion shows a decidedly improved condi-
ton in the islands. Ladronism is dying
out and there are but three provinces
that cannot be considered as paci6ed.
The commission has caught the local
officials in Samar practicing the old
Spanish formula of robbery and extor-
ton on the natives in regard to the hemp
crop and has brought up the offenders
with round turn. It was surprising
how quickly the unrest and instruction.
airy tendencies of the natives died out
when they got this taste of the square
deal" But it was almost pitiful at first
to see that they could not under
stand why a government official should
be treating them honestly. However,
they resigned themselves to that sort of
treatment gladly and no " there is much
less trouble in Samar. The general con-
dition of the lands is much better. They
last exported 50, 100 900 more and i'm
ported $2,300,000 less than previously,
the difference being altogether in the
amount of foreign rice that they are not
compelled to buy. They saved just
81 900, 900 to the islands by raising this
material at home. The currency has
been placed on more stable basis, edu-
cation and road making are improving
and the future is altogether brighter.
