was only little outward indication
of his joy.
Services at all the other churches
were suspended for the day, and the
Presbyterians, Methodists and Epis-
copalians joined heartily in celebrat-
ing With the Baptists, as was the
case at the opening of the new Pres
byterian and Methodist churches.
The auditorium and Sunday-school
room, which is divided by portieres,
was filled until scarcely standing
room remained. The music of the
choir was excellent, while the violin
solo by Mr. Dave Silverman, accom-
panied by Miss Estelle Campbell at
the piano, deserves special mention.
Mr. Samuel Carr, the accomplished
pianist, also played two beautiful Sc
lections.
The sermon by DR. E Pendleton
Jones was from the gospel of St
Luke, THE Spirit of the Lord is
Upon Me-" 1t was a masterful
discourse, fttingly appropriate, and
delivered with all the characteristic
earnestness, vim and solemnity of
the speakers nature.
At $3.50 in the afternoon DR. De-
rieux spoke to a good congregation,
when Messrs John Brown and J D
Gamble were installed as deacons of
the church. The usual monthly

1t is indeed an unusual occurrence
that the citizens of town the size
of Kingstree have the opportunity
of witnessing, within space of two
years time, the opening of three
handsome new houses of worship
such as adorn our little town today.

the Methodists opened their hand.
some new church in the presence OF
the united congregations of the
town. At that time little, if any.
thing, was said or heard concerning
the erection of a new Presbyterian
or Baptist church, although the con.
gregation of each keenly realized the
need of a new and larger house in
which to meet and worship God.
Almost a year passed and still there
had been no definite plans for build
ing determined upon. A little later,
however, both the Presbyterians
and Baptists adopted plans and be-
gan the erection of new churches. On
Sunday, January 25, the Presby,
terians held their formal opening
and delightful occasion it was.

What So Precious
as a Healthy Baby?
Every YOungster Can Have Fine d.
qeStiOn II Given a Good
Baby Laxative.

In spite of the greatest personal
care and the most intelligent atten-
ton to diet, babies and children will
become constipated, and it is a fact
that constipation and indigestion
have wrecked many a young life.
To start with a good digestive ap-
paratus is to start life without hand
leap.
But, as we cannot all have perfect
working bowels, we must do the next
best thing and acquire them, or train
them to become healthy. This can
be>done by the use of a laxative
tonic very highly recommended by
great many mothers. The remedy
is called DR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
and has been on the market for two
generations. 1t can be bought con-
veniently at any drug store for fifty
cents or one dollar a bottle. and
those who are already convinced of
its merits buy the dollar size.
Its mildness makes it the ideal
medicine for children, and it is also
very pleasant to the taste. 1t is sure
in its effect, and genuinely harmless.
Very little of it is required and its
frequent use does not cause it to
lose its effect. as is the case with so
many other remedies.
Thousands can testify to its merits
in constipation, indigestion, bilious
ness sick headaches, etc, among them

Rouse of Marinette, Wis. Her little

Dyal, the most prominent Hindu
American, who was formerly lecturer

are advocating an armed revolt in
India. 1t is suspected he wrote let

THE SPREAD OF ENGLISH.

What the United States has done
for the spread of the English langu-
age is patent to ALL The peoples of
the earth come to US and are taught
it. On a continent where 100000
spoke English century ago 100000
900 speak it now.
The part taken by the English
themselves in this great work is less
conspicuous and less well known. The
recently published census of British
India throws some light. OF the 315,-
100000 inhabitants of that country
only 1S,500,000 are literate in any
language, and of these there are now
l 100000 who have passed rigid test
in reading and writing English. This
is gain of so per cent in the last
decade and is regarded as remark
able showing.
But if English is to become world
language, progress in it among the
great dependencies of the British
crown will have to make more rapid
progress. Greater advances are made
where the pupils come to the school
than when the school goes to the pu-
pills. In the former case the alien
must learn; in the latter case the ma
tive may-and will, if he has to do
business with the invader or expects
to gain official employment under
him. But such results are vastly less
important than those worked among
vast bodies of immigrants who have
practically no choice in the matter. If
English conquers the world, American
taught English in the United States
will be the largest factor.-Record-

GREAT CROWD EXPECTED
AT MORAN FIGHT

PARIS, March 26.-It is now a GER
tainty that the heavyweight "cham-
pionship' fight, between Frank Mo-
ran, the Pittsburg white hope, and
Jack johnson, will be pulled off her
on Sunday, the day of the Grand
Prix at Longchamps in June.
Dan McKetrick, foxy manager of
Moran, has everything to gain by
picking this, or similar day, for the
match. Johnson is guaranteed $685.
600 win, loose or draw, $4,000 to be
paid his white wife on the day of the
fight and $4,000 in 81 900 installments
for five weeks prior to the fight.
Roth and Maitrot, under whose direc
ton the fight is to be held, also have
"a guarantee of $4,000 with prospec
tive share in the gate receipts. Moran
will get like settlement, therefore
the box office will have to take in at
least $4,000 before Danny comes in
for a nickel. Over that amount he,
Moran and the fight managers will
share, but fights in Paris so far have
never yielded anything like this sum.
"McKetrick figures this will be the
biggest fight France has ever seen,
consequently bigger admission will be
charged The battle probably will
take place at the Pare des Princes,
big athletic field, bicycle track and
favorite duelling ground, or some 9TH
er large place in order to keep all the
money which may be offered at the
gate. However, Moran is an unknown
