The Rev. T o Soyars, student of
the Louisville Theological Seminary,
delivered two strong sermons in the
Baptist church last Sunday. His ad-
dresses were highly received and the
impression prevails that he would be a
most valuable man for pastor. In a
conference with him it developed that
he is not seeking a pastOrate and that
he could not now accept call. He will
again preach in the Columbia Baptist
church on the third Sunday in March
and at that time will probably be in
position To state whether he could ac-
cept the work here. Throughout his
discourses much evidence of spiritual
feeling was manifested and only COM
plimentary statements were heard from
those present.

BEATS OLIVE OIL.
Cotton and OIL Making Steady
Headway.

Washington, Aug. 25.-Americar
cotton seed oil, despite the higf
duties against it, is steadily making
Roadway in the markets of the
world. Through the efforts of the
bureau of manufacturers of the de-
partment of commerce and labor
some packers of sardines in France
and Norway have promised to begin
experiments in packing fish in the
Amrican products instead of olive
oil.
Italy is unable TO undersell Spain
in the olive oil market a report to
the department says, but Spain pro-
hibits the importation of cotton
seed oil as an edible, while Italy
permits it. The Spanish Dealers
send their olive oil to Italy. where
IL is mixed with the cotton oil. The
domestic use of cotton seed oil in
Italy, as we'll as in Turkey, allows
nearly all the native oil (oliye) to
be exported.
Special agents Of the department
who have been investigating the for
eign market report that the preju-
dices against the American product
are being steadily broken down, and
an immense sale of cotton seed
abroad in the next few years is ex-
pected.
