Agreement by Close Vote.

Birmingham, Ala. May o.
By vote of ga to SO, the Gener-
al Assembly of the Southern
PRESBYTERIAN Church today voted
in favor of adopting the Char
lotte articles of agreement. This
result was reached only after
one of the most heated discussions
in the history of the Church and
historical scene was enacted
as the Assembly placed the
Church on record as tavoring
closer unity with other Churches
olding the Presbyterian form of
worship.
1t is the younger men OF the
Church who have achieved this
result, the older commissioners
being for the most part in oppo-
sition.
BY the adoption of the Char
lotte articles today the Southern
Presbyterion Church agrees t'
enter council of reformed
Churches. The council will be
made up of representatives, o.
all the Churches holding the
Presbyterian system and car
make recommendations to thC
Genera! Assemblies by which ii

Crop Conditions in Pleasant
Hill ard Vicinity.

Mr.. Editor: The farmers in
this section are busy chopping
cotton and ploughing the second
time. The cotton is dying out
badly in the sandy land. Some
are planting over the second
time. The cotton is not growing
to do any good in this section.
The weather is too cold for it..
Cotton is advancing in price
some. The continued bad weather
is the principal reason for the
advance, as the poor stands and
unhealthy condition of the cot
ton that is up does not look en-
couraging at all, and Judging
from the outlook we can't
expect big crop this year. 1t
may be better for the people il
they don't make much; as they
will get better prices for what
they do make.
Corn is looking very we'll
in this section. The bud
worms are working on the
corn some around here. If the
people would plant more corn
and less cotton think they would
get along much better. Gardens
are looking fine around here cab
bages heading up fast. S. Beck
ham Jr., has the best garden tha
/ have seen this year. Water
melon vines are looking yer!
we'll, but the weather is too colo
for them. E.

Hutchinson was obliged to fight alone
until he beat off the reptile with an
iron drill in one hand, while he chung
to a rope with the other. He dared
not drop the dynamite lest he cause an
explosion that would have blown him
to pieces and he was obliged to keep a
tight hold on the rope or fall to the
bottom Of the pit. He slipped the dyn-
amite into his pockets, and as the
snake dropped within his reach he
struck it with small drill.
The swinging of the rope spoiled
his aim and he missed. He struck
again and again, the snakes progress

On Sunday evening. Aug. 25th, at
6 O'Clock, death laid its cold hands on
little Ruby Carpenter, second daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs G. a. Carpenter.
near Oxberry, and the spirit of this
dear little child panied a convey
of angels to that city whose streets
are paved with gold and where Gods
will is supreme. Little Ruby had
been sick for quite two weeks, bus
careful aud patient nursing and gooG
medical attention were not able te
stay the ravages of the disease th&s
was destroying her vitality and on tiss
dav and hour named above, she finish
ed her earthly mission aud left this
world of sickness. pain and sorrow
and went to another where nc af1ise-
tions, perplexities or anxietles are
known and there she waits and beck
ons for her parents and other loved
ones on this side o. Jordan. She was
nearly six years old, having been born
Dec. 8, 1901. May the distressed

1t VIII probably be an item or news
TO most of our readers that our genial
postmaster is not compelled to make
change for you when you make pur-
chases at Uncle Sans office. This IS
a queer rule that not one in thou-
sand persons know. Buyers of stamps
or any purchases at pOStotfice must
furnish their own change; i. E., the
postmaster could insist on the buyer
furnishing his own change if he sees
fit to do it, but usually the postmas-
ter is glad enough to get rid or DIS
chicken feed and he is always ready
and willing to accommodate the pub
lie by making all the change it asks
for. If man wishes to buy hftt
cents worth of stamps and has but d
silver dollar. he would be compelled to
buv a dollars worth of stamps or go
and get his silver dollar changed or do
without his stamps, if the postmaster
was stubborn and refused to make
change for him. This is the law ana
a nneer one to our way of thinking
And postmasters are not compelled TO
take more than twenty-five pennies at
one time, if they do not want them.

ter business in the department lie

MIR. Hill is seeking to have new

and saws that he will not rest until
every farmer constituent of hfs has
mail brought to his door six days In

cure better pay for carriers OF rural
mail. who he declares are not treated
as we'll bv the government as they
should be. He also favOrS the propo-
Sition to have the government furnlSn
rural carriers with teams and funds to
maintain them.
Mr.. Hill stated that, in his opinion,
the great fight in the next congress
weuld be between the adhereuts or
states rights and those advocating
Capitalization Of power in the federal
government at Washington. He de-
clared himself unequivocallyin favor
of the right Of the states to control
their internal affairs and would tight
