Tents Up and Floats Decorated for
Big Parade Preceding
the Carnival.

The wonders of electrical engineer !
ing, chemical engineering, mechanical

will be demonstrated in the tent

OF these different departments as a
feature of the annual carnival at the
A. & VI. College Saturday. In the
vaudeville tent the Johnson-Willard
fight between two cadets who are ex-
perts with the gloves is expected to
be a feature, while numbers by
male quartet are billed as an added
attraction. A singing. talking and
dancing skit between Cadets Spencer
and Dudley is another feature. The
carnival Saturday will be the best In
the history of this popular event.
which is chief of the features Of the
years attractions at A. & NJ.
Opening with the parade at 3
o'clock on the campus there will be
something doing every minute until
the dancing closes at midnight. DIR.
Morgan said this morning that the
arrangements for the parade have
been completed and that this agri
cultural pageant will be a revelation
not only to the citizens of Bryan but
to the campus people as well. The
floats are unusually attractive and
the presence of many of Bryan's
prettiest girls in these floats will ado
materially to the attractiveness OF
the feature.
The tents have been erected and thu
grounds hastily decorated.

(COMMENT.)
Pensacola, Fla.

The foregoing letter excites in me a number
Of deep emotions.
The tribute to Capt. Jim Wilson is we'll
deserved. A bigger hearted man never lived.
He was SO liberal, so open handed and so
ready to go security for needy friend, that
he made trouble for his declining years, as
most of the cold set' did.
1t may interest Mr.. Smith to know that
after the death of Captain and Mrs. Wilson,
the house on the hill was sold, and that | am
living there, and that The Jefersonian Pub
fishing Company has it's great plant on one Of
the hills, on the same place.
Jordan E. White has also been dead some
years; but his widow survives, and is the same
dear friend to me that she was when the bril-
liant young lawyer from Tennessee was court
ing her" in the years long ago.
The McDuffie Journal was a spicy local
paper in it's time, and I remember when peo-
pie hung around the postofice to get their
copies on issue day.
Mr.. White went off to Florida, in 1877, for
a two weeks vacation, and left me to edit his
paper while he was gone
I edited the Journal with such vigor and
sassy youthfulness, that by the time Mr..
White got back to Thomson nearly all the old
moss backs were as mad as wet hens.
The scoring that my returned boss gave me,
was hardly mild enough to print; and 1T took
him several weeks to pacify some of the emf
nently respectable citizens whose feathers [
had playfully pulled out.
AS to the Socialists, [ am not worrying.
They couldn't possibly make worse mess in
America, than the pope and the kings have
made in Europe.
Now that the Catholics are making Gods
onearth out Of niger men, and giving them
free range among imprisoned white women,
whose screams could never be heard outside
the dungeons in which they are confined, [ am
not bothering my head in the least about
Socialism. T. E. w.

Foreign Missionaries Throwing
Up the Sponge!

Do the work as Paul did it, as Judson did
it, and as the whole of Christendom did it,
until about a hundred gears ago, and /
haven't word of protest.
But when you impose the William Carey
methods on our churches and go to giving to
the missionaries, and to the alleged con
verts," such enormous bounties as naturally
tempt the cupidity Of poor human nature,
then [ am dead against it.
When a champion of this Carey system tells
me that the modern missionary doctor, sur
geon, dentist, trained nurse and free hospital,
is an imitation of the miraculous healing done
by Christ and his Apostles, to inspire faith,
then I confess my patience fails
To give sight to the blind hearing to the
deaf, speech to the dumb, action to the
paralytic, health to the sick, by the touch and
acithomt medicine, is one thing, and miracu
lous thing.
But the missionary doctor who tries to
break up fever with quinine, and stop dysen-
terry with "the usual remedies" and move q
torpid liver with TUFTS Pills. and set a
heather woman up on Wine of Cardui, is a
very different thing, and not miraculous.
To compare this missionary physic and
surgery, with the miraculous Apostolic 'heal-
ing" IS Wasphemy.
Didn't [ tell you that, under the high
salaried system of today, the foreign mis-
sionary was too often in it for the money?
Didn't [ ask you to rightly weigh the fact
that our Baptist Board paid $4,000 year
interest on borrowed money, to Keep these
high missionary salaries paid on the nail?
Now, look and see what's happening! The
foreign missionaries are qatatti7aq because
they are apprehensive that the money qviW

Rev. Emory w Hunt, D. D., has flung up

O heavens I am shocked My feelings
have been rudely rumpled. My confidence in

has got me, with an all-under hold.
Think of Paul and Timothy taking their
hands off the plough because of the critical
financial stuation!"
Think of Adoniram Judson deserving his
flag, because of the critical financial situa-
toni"
Is it possible that the missionaries are not
willing to work for less money?
Couldn't we Jew them down. a bit?
Couldn't two missionaries agree to continue
the holy work by living on the same salary,
and dividing between them the $500 bounty
for each child they beget?
Couldn't the missionary's wife and daugh-
ter make out with one house servant, and do
some Of the indoor work themselves?
My wife does homework, my daughter does
1T, my sisters all have some of it to do, and
