ELDER PULLiAS CONTINUES THE
MEETING AT THE CHRISTIAN
CHURCH.

The meeting t the Christian
church under the direction and
preaching of Elder c. NJ Pullias, con-
tinues in interest with two sermons
daily, one in the afternoon and one
at night.
Elder Pullias has proven himself
a wonderful man in that he gets and
holds the interest of his hearers in a
way that they want to hear him
again.
Plain and practical in his express
sions he has way of transmitting
his information and impressions that
is clearly and easily understood by
all. During the past week there has
been more than the usual number OF
attractions in the city and yet none
of these has had any apparent effect
on the number attending the servic-
es, the hoase being filed to overflow
ing at every service.
The, singing of Prof. Smith and
those under his direction, continue
to be feature of the meeting.

TRIBUTE TO SOUTHERN WOMEN

Mai. Williamson Commends Organ

One of the best attended meetings
of the u. d. G. meetings in Columbia
was that Monday afternoon at the
court house, when the two chapters
held their Shiloh day celebration.
This was postponed from the first
Monday ON account of the different
meetings here on that day.
The meeting Monday afternoon un-
der the direction of the Maury and
Winnie Davis Chapters, atrtcated a
large attendance, whose appreciation
was expressed in hearty applause of
the numbers on the program.
The feature of the program was
the grafton of John H. Dining. Mr..
Dinning is man OF fine thought and
expression, and his tribute to the
Southern soldiers, their fortitude,
bravery and nigh sense of principle
and honor, was merited tribute to
Southern soldiers. But his tribute
to the women of the South, the wives
and daughters and sweethearts of
the men who were fighting against
desperate odds, was perhaps the
most eloquent and most merited trib.
ute of his splendid effort. i.
At the close of his talk those pres
ent gathered around him to express
their appreciation and tender their
congratulations.
The. singing of "Tenting on the
Old Camp Ground" by number OF
young ladies'. led by Miss Ruth
Shields, was one of the features,
while the voices of the little ones as
they sang in rich youthful tones ''The
Bonnie Blue Flag" was indeed an in.

The decorations were simple flags

An opportunity was given the old

The speech OF j. H. Dinning as
the orator of the occasion at the
Shiloh Day exercises at the court
house Monday afternoon, promoted
by the local chapters of the u. d.. G.
was splendid effort, and called out
much favorable comment by those
who heard him. For the benef't of
those who were not permitted the
privilege and pleasure of being pre-
sent it is herewith reproduced:
Il Most profoundly thank the Tn
tied Chapters for the honor done me
in the invitation to speak to you
this afternoon But in the presence
of the eternal fact of what you rep
resent, anything | can say will seem
weak and pitiful.
Among my earliest recollections
| recall hearing my father te'ling
other comrades in arms of his lap
tism Of fire, when a boy of Line
teen years of age, he came unscath-
ed from the terrible carnage of Shi.
loh. The fierce impetuosity of that
early morning attack, when hopes
were high. when confidence in their
commander was undimmed and be-
fore the iron of disappointment had
entered their souls, seems to have
left an indelible impression upon all
the survivors of this terrible stiug-
gle. This was the first great battle
of the war, and historians are com
ling to realize more and more that the
campaigns of 1864 and S. were decid-
ed on that Sunday morning fh hsight
of old Shiloh church in April of 1862.
Fol if Gen. Grant had not been the
victor of Shiloh, but had suffered the
Overwhelming defeat that would have
been his if Albert Sidney Johnston
had lived, his startlingly victorious
career would have been effectually
stopped. His long line Of victories
would never have placed him a. the
head of the army of the Potomac, and
the tragic story from the wilderness

been the triumphant paean of IN in.

EVENING RARE ENTERTAINMENT
Good Size Audience Shows Hearty
Appreciation of the Splendid Pro-
oram Rendered by the Musical Tai
ent of Columbia.

Besides raising substantial fund
for the benefit of the sufferers IL the
flooded districts, the local musical
talent on last night gave an enter
tainment that was the delight Of a
good size audience. It is seldom
that the people of Columbia have
such an opportunity to hear a first
class concert. The music was OF
the highest order and the widest
range, embracing the piano, the yio-
4 lin and the voice. The program also
included delightful reading by
Miss Addie Rainey.
More than $50 was received from
the sale Of ticket and box office re-
ceipts and the expenses being light
very substantial sum will be for
warded to the relfe committees in
the districts that have beeh .overrun
by the waters.
While larger audiences have as
sembled az the Opera House it is
seldom that more appreciative or
enthusiastic assemblage is brought
together. Every number on the pro-
gram was most cordially received
and the appreciation of the audience
was attested in the enthusiastic ap-
plause. The program was one of ex-
ceptional merit. Much credit Is due
the ladies' who conceived and carried
to successful conclusion the enter
tainment.

NASHVILLE. Tenn, April 49,
The malodorous John Isaac Cox en-
livened the fifty-nine members OF the
house who were present today with a
vicious TRADE against the Nash, lille
Banner. John Isaac took exception
to certain statements of fact made
about him by the Banner and waxed
real indignant. He took the floor on
a question Of personal privilege and
said all manner of unkind things
concerning the great Nashville aft
ernoon daily much to the delight of
the regulars and especially the back
tax fraternity.
The house proceeded with business
