FIGHT OVER RELIGION.
Two Women of GreenyiIle Disagree
Over Religious Matters.

A dispatch from Greenville to The
State says that before Magistrate
Stradley Thursday was heard an un-
usual case in which Mrs 91ane Chap
man of Sampson village was put un-
der a $500 peace bond. Mrs. Chap
man made an assault upon. the "per-
son and face" cf Mrs. Jones of the
same village, the fight having occur
red in consequence of q disagreement
over, religious matters Both of the
parties, it appears, are of the Holi-
ness sect and previous to the distur-
bance they had attended services to-
gether.
In summer these Holiness services
are held in a tent on Park place, and
for the past three nights all-night
services have been held and prayers
have been offered for.sthe city of
Greenville, that it may tbe'tsaved from
destruction.
One of the preachers, of this cult
is a believer in the gift of tongues"
and in the course of sermon Sun
day night he told some; remarkable
incidents of the descending Of this
"gift" upon men. He declared that
in a Georgia town at a meeting last
summer farmer was converted and
became sanctifed, and that he i'm
mediately began speaking, In an un-
known tongue, which afterwards
turned out to be Chinese. and the
man was sent as missionary to
China, walking to seaport town
and there embarking without money
for. the Orient. Upon his arrival he
was puzzled to find himself conver-
SAINT with the peoples manners and
customs and could speak the langu-
age fluently. His advent SO impress
ed the people, according to the
preachers statement, that the Chin
ese received him as prophet and
Immediately made him their coun-
sellor.
This story was told just as it is
given and was given by the Holiness
preacher as an illustration Of what
may be accomplished by sanctifca-
ton.
The "gift of tongues" has descend
ed upon several and in the congre-
cation now and then one may hear
strange mutterings which are mean
ingless to the uninitiated, but which
seem to be source of never failing
comfort to the devotees of this stran-
gest of all cults.
