PRESBYTERIAN SYNOD CLOSES.
Florence Gets 1913 Meeting - Me-
mortal Services to DIR. ThornweIl.

Columbia, Oct 24.-The first part
OF today's session Of the Presbyterian
Synod, of South Carolina, was deyot-
ed to reports from committees while
the latter part Of the day was given
over to the memorial services to the
late DR.. Thornwell.
AT the afternoon session the COM
mittee on bills and overtures made a
report recommending the adoption
of an overture from Charleston Pres
bytery that it set apart one whole day
Of its 1913 meeting to the cause of
foreign missions. 1t was adopted.
Committee on General Assembly's
home missions presented it's report
and after a brief ringing address by
the Rev. A. D. p. Gilmour, D. D., it
was adopted. An overture from Har-
mony Presbytery that Synod ask the
presbyteries which opposed the re-
moval Of Chicora College to recon-
slider their action, was answered, on
recommendation of committee on
bills and overtures, in the negative.
The special order of the evening
was the address Of the Rev. T. H.
Law, d. D., of Spartanburg, on "Dr.
Thornwell as Teacher and Preach
err" The Rev. Alexander Sprunt, D.
d., of Charleston, presided. Synod
was led in prayer by the Rev. w. p.
Jacobs, the venerable founder and
president Of Thornwell Orphanage, a
pupil of the great teacher in whose
honor the service was held. The
speaker of the evening was also so
fortunate as to be able to draw his
material from his own memory of
days, a half century Passed, when in
class room and church he sat under
DR.. Thornwell as teacher and preach
er.
After the address Synod resumed
the discussion of the place OF next
meeting. The claims of Florence,
Abbeville and Yorkville were enthus-
| ldsllcdlly presented by their adVO-
Gates. Much humor kept the body in
a good humor, though the rivalry was
earnest; Florence was chosen.
The report of the standing COM
mittees on local home missions was
presented and docketed. Several 9TH
er reports were docketed and synod
adjourned.
The Synod was entertained in a
charming manner by the ladies Of
the College for Women at 5 p. m.
yesterday, and at p. m. at q recep-
ton in the Smith Memorial Chapel
by the ladies of the three Presbyter-
ian churches In the city.

Head-On Collision at Springfield
Injuries Many.

Through the misunderstanding oil
orders received by the engineer on
the west-bound Northwestern passen.
ger train, . head on collision occurred
at Springfield shortly before three
O'Clock Tuesday afternoon OF last
week. It seems that the east and
west bound passenger trains had
orders to pass each other at SPRING
field, the latter to take the side-track
and the east.bound to have the right
OF way. Engineer Rhode misread his
orders and instead OF slowing down to
the side-track went by the switch and
ran into the east-bound passenger
which was taking water at the time.
Owing to binding snow-s.orm that
was raging at the time Engineer
Rhode did not realize the danger until
he was almost upon the other train.
BY setting the emergency brakes, he
succeeded in slowing his train down
to such an extent that a serious acct.
dent was averted. AS it was, the
engines came together with sufficient
force to do considerable damage to
both pilots and headlights.
The impact of the oncoming train
shook up the passengers considerably.
Most of those who had gotten up to
leave the train at Springfield were
thrown violently to the floor. A
travelling man who stood in the yesti-
bule with his grip was hurled through
the door and received = painful In
