Consecrate Church

Leesville. June 18.-A new Luther
an church is to be consecrated the hrst
Sunday in July next. 1t is situated
between White Rock and the Broad
river, at Folks school house in the
section recently added to Rlchlano
county, from Lexington county. The
Rev. J. W. HORNE, D. D., editor OF
The Lutheran Church Visitor, and the
Rev. J. @. seegers, D. D., of the
Lutheran seminary, both of Columbia
and possibly other pastors will make
addresses.
About ten years ago, the Rev. s. Q.
Ballentine had a catechism class IN
the school house. Later Sunday
school was organized. A chapel was
then built, and vigorous Sunday
school was kept up, with J. E. Haiti
Wanger at it's head. 1t has now been
decided to organize into church, and
to consecrate the building, which is
neat and churchly. Prospects are good
for healthy growth.

Drops Detective Burns.

Grand Rapids. Mich: June 19.-Two
of the final acts of the International
Association of Chief of Police before
the annual convention adjourned here
to-day were to drop Detective VIM. j.
B1rns from the list of honorary mem
bership of the Association and to vote
against amalgamating with the ma
tional organizations of sheriff and rail-
way detectives.
Burns connection with the Associa-
tion was served without bringing his
name directly before the convention.
A committee prepared new honorary
membership list, which the convention
adopted. Burns name did not appear
among the members.
The detective, however, did not es-
cape criticism on the convention floor.
His firm and himself were assailed by
delegates for using the insignia OF the
Chiefs Association on the firms sta
tionery. Chief F. w. Hill, of Chatta-
nooga, Tenn, who introduced a reso-
luton authorizing the president OF the
association to take steps to prosecute
non-members who make use Of the In
sigma, declared Burns had violated
his rights as an honorary member OF
the association. The Hill resolution
was passed.
Several chiefs, however, said the
principal reason for removing Burns
from their membership was caused by
criticism he is alleged to have made
concerning methods of various police
departments in the United States.

Turkey Wants Peace.

London, June 1s s-Tnrkish naval
officers have arrived in England on
a mission for the purchase OF coat
and transport vessels in preparation
for a possible wsr between Turkey
and Greece. The Graeco-Turkey situ-
alton, however, has improved. Tur-
key has replied in conciliatory spirit
to the Greek note, demanding that the
persecution of Greek residents OF Asia
Minor cease, and insisting upon repa-
ration for injuries already inflicted.
She has further invited the powers to
send agents to Asia Minor to make
thorough investigation Of the Greek
allegations.
Germany already has agreed to this
proposal AID in the meantime court
martial at Smyrna has sentenced A
persons to terms of imprisonment
varying from three to five years, for
pillaging the Greeks, and has dis
missed several officials responsible for
the disorders.
The reply Of the Turkish govern
ment to the note of Greece Is con-
ciliatory. 1t expresses the hope that
Greece, like Turkey, will take steps to
restore order, but it evades the spe'
cifc demands of Greece for the re-
instatement Of Greek emigrants and
the restoration OF the property OF
Greeks.

Australia won the right to meet
Germany in the semi-fnaI round for
the Davis international tennis cup
yesterday at Onwentsia when Wilding
and Brookes defeated Powell and
Schwengers, the Canadians, in
straight sets, GA, 6-3, ga.
The Canucks played we'll together,
but were powerless against the
smashing work of Wilding. Brookes
was off form in the first few games
of the initial set and the Canadians
took four of the first five games.
Then the Antipodeans worked togeth-
er and won five straight and the set.
Thereafter they were never in danger.
In all departments of doubles play
Wilding and Brookes excelled.
Their game, however, must be
much improved if they reach the
challenge round and meet McLough-
lin and Bundy, the Americans, who
from long practice together work as
a Well-oiled machine.
Though the match is settled, so far
as the effect on the cup trials is con-
cerned, Brookes will play Powell and
Wilding will meet Schwengers this
afternoon.
Sailor Bill Walters, local Wslter-
weight, has been offered three fights
in Australia. Walters has dates in
this country which will keep him
busy until the middle of September.
Then he will consider the foreign
offer.
