sidered that he had made a mistake
and told him 80, but he shook his
head and went on. His first big
meeting was held at Manning, where
1000 people professed conversion.
Since then his greatest trouble is to
get a place large enough to seat the
people who come to hear him. At
Orangeburg they built huge build
ing to seat 5000 people, and it was
seldom large enough to take care of
the folk. There were $500 people
who professed conversion at that
place. Wherever he has gone he has
made host of friends. All of his
meetings but one have been held IN
this State, but it is doubtful if he can
be held here much longer, as calls
are coming for him from distant
States. Most of, these he has re.
fused, as he prefers to work among
his own people. However, he has
promised a Northern city cam
paign during the coming summer.

SKETCH Of REV.
B. F. McLEND0N
EVANGELIST CONDUCTING GREAT
REVIVAL IN NKINGTREE--A RE-
MARKABLE CAREER.

The McLendon revival which open
ed at the Central warehouse here on
Sunday the 9th inst,is daily swinging
into form and before another week
passes will prove to he the greatest
revival meeting ever held gin this
town.
Sunday morning it is estimated
that between 800 and 1000 peo-
pie were present to hear Evangelist
McLendon attack sin and unright-
eousness, which he does at every
meeting with gloves off, siX-prong
pitchfork in each hand and the laws
of the Old and New Testaments on
the end of his tongue. He is fighting
the devil apparently with all the ve-
hemence and sincerity of his make
up, and the crowds listen to him with
marked attention and profound in
terest. 1t is quite evident that the
evangelist makes many friends wher-
ever he goes, as was shown by the
crowds of people who came here to
hear him Sunday from Greely-
vile, Summerton. Manning, Lake
City, Georgetown. Bishopville and
other places where he has recently
conducted revivals.
One of our exchanges contains the
following, which will be of interest

his present home. His early life was
given over to wild dissipation; before
he was twenty he was known as a
professional gambler with gun rec
ord. Nine years ago he was convert
ed at a tent meeting in his home
town. When Mack went to the altar
and professed conversion the people
clapped their hands and cheered. No
one ever expected to see McLendon
do such a thing. He plunged into
the Christian life with the same
abandonment and energy that he had
given to sin.
After two years at Asbury COL
lege and one at Moody Bible instit-
ute he began his ministry as a coun-
try circuit rider. Having served two
years, he gave up the pastorate and
became an evangelist. At first his
success was doubtful, and some con-

PRESIDENT WILSON SENDS
ULTIMATUM TO GERMANY.
Must Cease Her Present System Of Submarine Warfare or
the United States VIII Sever Diplomatic Relations
The Next Step Must be Taken by Germany.

In his address to Congress he said,
in part:
81 have deemed it my duty say to
the Imperial German Gov ,rnment
that if it is still its purpose to prose-
cute relentless and indiscriminate
warfare *'* the Government of
tee United States is at last forced to
the conclusion that there is but one
course it can pursue. and that unless
the Imperial German Government
should now, Immediately, declare
and effect an abandonment of its
present methods of warfare against
passengers ard freight-carrying ves-
sells this Government can have no
choice but to sever diplomatic rela-
tions altogether.
THE Government of the United
States has been very patient. II
has accepted the successive eXplana-
tions and assurances of the Imperial
Government as, of course, given in
entire sincerity and good faith, and
has hoped even against hope that it
would prove to be possible for the
Imperial Government so to order
and control the acts Of its naval COM
manders as to square its policy with
the recognized principles of human
ity as embodied in the law of ma
tions. n 1t has made every al
lowance for unprecedented condl.
tions and has been willing to wait
until the facts became unmistakably
and were susceptible of only one in
depreciation.
1T now owes it to a just regard
for it's own rights to say to the I'm
perial Government that that time
has come"

Washington, April 19:-President
Wilson's long expected final warn
ing to Germany that the United
States will break off diplomatic rela-
tions unless she abandons her pres
ent methods of submarine warfare,
and Immediately declares her inten-
ton to do 80, was delivered today IN
note to Berlin and was announced
by the President in an address to a
Joint session of Congress. The Pres
ident demands nothing less than the
abandonment of submarine warfare
against commerce.
Both the Presidents address and
the American note declare in un-
eouivocally that only by Germany ac-
ceding to the demand can the break
ing off of relations be prevented.
The President considers that the
next step depends solely upon Ger
many and that three or four days
constitute a reasonable time for a
reply. He is willing to discuss how
submarine warfare may be conduct
ed within the limits of international
law and humanity after Germany
abandons her present methods. .
Diplomatic history records only
one instance as yet where a break
ing of relations between two first
class Powers has not eventually
brought war-that which now exists
between Germany and Italy.
Congress received the Presidents
declaration of his course with mix
ed evidences of concern and appro-
baton. Most of the leaders, DEM
kocratic and Republican, thought the
President hardly could do less and
some expressed the opinion that his
action would not lead to war.
Republican Leader Mann alone of
all the opposition leaders openly at
tackled the President for his stand.
He characterized it as political
play.
President Wilson's words leave. no
opportunity for double meaning.

Troop Movement to Go On.

San Antonio, Texas, June 29.-Gen-
eral Trevino s release of the American
cavalrymen captured in the Carrizal
fight is expected to have no effect on
troop movements to the border. Army
officers today felt that while an actual
clash has been averted temporarily the
situation between the United States and
Mexico will continue to be strained un-
til General Carranza definitely changes
his attitude toward American troops in
Mexico.
The war department has been asked
by General Funston to expedite the
transfer of the regular army from east
ern recruiting stations. These men are
needed for the newly formed regiments
and to fill the gaps in old regiments
caused by the transfer of men to the
new units.
Several routine reports were received
from General Pershing last night, but
nothing to indicate a. new clash with
Carranza forces as rumored at border
points late yesterday.
Information was received here early
today, through railroad sources, that
Missouri National Guard would be sent
directly to Laredo.
