MT. CLARE, Mar. 14.-The Rev. d.
e. C. Vishanoff. an exile from Thes-
salonica Macedonia. gave lecture in
the Methodist Episcopal church here
Thursday evening to the delight OF a
good sized audience. Mr.. VishanofI's
father was a rich nobleman, and gov
ernor of the Thessalonica district OF
Macedonia, but because the son had
renounced the Greek Catholic faith
and accepted the Protestant religion,
he was disinherited by his father and
banished from his country. Barely
escaping with his life he has been in
this country seven years during which
time he has been training in some OF
the hest schools preparing himself for
missionary work when conditions can
be made safe for his return to his own
country. His description of the pow
erty, want and ignorance of the peas
ant class of that country was very
wierd and pathetic story, and all OF
the people who so persistently oppose
the giving of money to foreign mis-
sions would likely change their minds
after hearing his lecture.
Russell Rogers has sold his Mt. Clare
residence property to Porter Rogers.

The government was investigating tho

This ended the Presidents address. His
closing sentiments were wildly applaud

II may. be said here that the govern
ment never retaliated upon Gen. Forrest
or his men for the slaughter at Fort Pill
low; first, because none of them were
captured, and secondly, because in th'
swiftly-moving events Of the campaign
now opening, the Fort Pillow massacre
was soon lost to view. 1t was never

alteration in a street car between a
young stan lieutenant and retired
general of over sixty. The young off,
Ger challenged the general, and the
challenge was Immediately accepted
and pistols named as weapons.
The two men retired TO a nearby
wood and prepared for the duel. When
the signal to fire was given neither
one pulled a trigger.

valuable TO his country over a trivial
matter. while the lieutenant said it
was impossible for him 10 fire on an
opponent who had not raised his arm.
No reconciliation was effected.
