BISHOP CAPERs R0NOREp.

Columbia, S. c.. Oct. Negroes
of the Methodist Episcopal Church
melting here the past few days In
connection with the centenary council
yesterday paid a beautiful tribute
to the late Bishop William Capers
when they placed wreath of flow
ers symbolic Of the great man who
deboted his life to the uplift Of man"
on his tomb at the Washington Street
Methodist Church. The wreath was
one Of the rrettiest OF designs and
characterized a spirit of loving re-
membrane by the Negroes for what
Bishop Capcrs had done for them.
Bishop Capers was the first man
to begin missionary work among the
old slaves years ago and spent Is
years Of his life in teaching the old
Negroes respect for Christ. This
early teaching has not been forgotten.
and when the centenary council met
yesterday and it was suggested to
place a wreath on the venerable
Bishops grave the suggestion was
adopted.

HOG CREEK COMPANY
BRINGS S12,OOO,OOO
STOCKHOLDERS TO GET $4,000
EACH 500 SHARE IF LEASE
TITLES GOOD.

An agreement and tentative con-
tract, dependent upon the passing
of titles to the leases held, for the
sale of the Hog Creek Oil Company
for s12.O00.OOO in money. or $4,000
for 800 share of stock, has been en-
tered into by the trustees of the
company. Tom NJ. Dees of Dallas,
formerly of Midlothian. said Sat-
urday afternoon.
The Hog Creek Oil Company has
proved one of the most successful
wildcat" oil companies ever organi-
zed in any field. Slightly more than
two years ago, approximately $500
acres of leases were obtained by the
promoters of the company. who form
ed a 100000 joint stock association,
retaining very large portion of the
stock themselves. These leases, in
and surrounding the wonderfully pro-
ductive Desdemona or Hog Greek oil
fields, were later sold in part and
in part delivered to the Magnolia Pc
troleum Company to drill out on the
halves. The company, however,
has more than 1000 acres which will
go in on the deal If completed.
Several weeks ago the trustees re-
fused an offer of $S,000.000.
