WORLDS MISSIONARY
CONFERENCE OPENS

Edinburgh, Scotland, June 1.-THE
worlds missionary conference, a repre-
sentative gathering of Protestant
churches, opened today under the presi-
dency of Lord Balfour of Burleigh. There
are 1900 accredited delegates and 20o0 other
representatives of churches and missions
present, representing all civilized races
The sessions will continue until June
ps and all phases of missionary work
among non-Christian peoples will be con-
Hidered.
The conference is unique In that it is
designed to give representatives of all
Christian churches an opportunity for
an open discussion of missionary prob
lens without binding the delegates as a
whole to any particular policy.
Two similar conferences have been held,
one in London in 1888 and the second
in New York in 1900. There are 600
American delegates present and 500 repre-
sentatives of American missionary socie-
ties. The convention voted to sit in the
deliberative session. which will commence
tomorrow, as a committee of the whole
under the Craftsmanship of John R. Mott
of New York. general secretary of the
worlds student Christian federation.

New Healing Agent ITomptis 0ts-
poses of Every skin Affection.
The time to try poslam for eczema
or any skin trouble Is before expert
menting with anything else. Then, too,
st is the least expensive way, because
poslam will do the work. making
treatment by other means unnecessary.
But no matter how many different
things have failed, poslam should yet
be used for its healing properties are
assured even in the most aggravated
cases All doubt as to Its action is re-
moved in the promptness with which
It begins its work, stopping the Itch

BARRIERS and every form of Itch yield
to it readily and are permanently Grad

In less serious skin affections, such
as pimples. rash. herpes, blackheads,
inf1amed skin, etc, results show over
night only small quantity being re-
uuired. For minor troubles special

Mayor WikIe "CaIIed Down,

In the parlance of the street, Annis-
tons mayor was "caled down" at the
meeting of the city council in special
session Monday evening when w. L.
McCaa, president of the city council,
made a polite demand that DIR. j. L.
Wikle. the chief magistrate, cease to
participate in the deliberations of the
governing body.
This demand came about in connec-
ton with the discussion OF a proposed
contract with the Admission Water Sup
ply company to become effective in the
event the proposed municipal ownership
experiment fails to carry in the election
to be held on June %. DR.. Wikle was
given the floor and offered some sugges-
tons in regard to the measure under
discussion. Captain McCaa objected to
this and called the attention of the mayor
to the fact that the law prescrbes that
all his addresses to the council should
come in the form of written communca-
tions, and that as he is invested with
the veto power there is no necessity for
his appearing on the floor of the council
chamber.
DIR. Wikle has attended the sessions OF
the council very regularly, and he ex-
planned this by saying that he has been
actuated by a regard for the city's inter-
ests, thinking that measures might fire.
quently arise on which his suggestion or
advice would be desired. Captain Nc
Caa, however,, thought that his presence
Caa, however, thought that his practice

& Willett and Lapsley & Arnold of this
city, attorneys representing the unse-
cured creditors of the Planters Manufac-
turing company, which took the bank
ruptcy act some time ago, have just
consummated amieable settlement by
which their clients will get payment on
the basis of So cents on the dollar.
The amount involved in the claims of the
unsecured creditors aggregated between
$4,000 and $4,000, it is said, the largest
creditors being C. J. Houser of this city
and Whittier mills of Chattahoochie, Ga.
The case has been in the courts for over
a year. The attorneys for the unsecured
creditors won by adopting measures to
enforce the stockholders liability law,
and this is generally regarded as an
insecure asset the basis of the settle
ment Is considered exceptionally good.
J. C. Sproull, president of the Admission
Hardware company, has been trustee of
the plant for some time, and George F.

Seaboard OffciaI Coming

Authoritative information was given out
here this afternoon that Vice President
Caps of the Seaboard Air Line railway
is en- route to Admission, and following
his visit next week it is probable that
definite information will be given out
as to the proposed time of the beginning
of the work of extension of the Seaboard
to this city.
Unless this work is undertaken within
IL months the Seaboard will forfeit their
franchise and purse of $4,000. 1t is said,
however, that the Seaboard is eager to
get into this city and 1t is not believed
that they will default Every effort will
be put forth to impress Mr. Caps with
the citys advantages, and it will not
likely be many more months before the
work will begin on the extension from
Tredegar via Jacksonville.
