 And all the time l was wondering why anybody would write such a book shut himself up long enough to do such a thing and who perhaps didn't have one ounce of the real "talisman of joy' in his own heart.

WORK DAY FOR THE -.
EPwoRTH oRPHANAGE

1t has come to my attention that
some of our people are questioning
the need Of having Work Day for
Epworth Orphanage. They seem to
think the institution has sufficient in
ccme from endowment TO take care
Of its needs. To set this matter
straight in the minds Of those who
are interested in the Orphanage l
wish to make the following state
ment: ..,.'
While the Gill estate sold for a;
good sum, remember in most cases
only one-fifth was paid cash. Under
recent conditions not only have
there been no further payments, but
even the interest on deferred pay
ments has not been met. I suppose it
is generally known that only the
interest from this fund can be used.
And now the Orphanage is not get
ting that in many instances.
The total income from all funds
invested (including the Admin
stration FUND.- for the year just end
ing amounts to only $15,423.30. To
run the Orphanage for a year re-
quires from $4,000 to 100000. So
it is seen that the Endowment fur
nishes only about one-fourth of the
necessary money. The monthly con-
tributions fall short of the other
three-fourths. Unless we receive a
liberal Work Day contribution the
children at Epworth are going to
suffer. Are you willing to permit
this? The Methodists of the State
will answer this question on Satur-
day, October 9Th.

Kirby Found To BE Sane, Lawyer
Will Not Press Case.

VIII Not EfesS SASe.
Columbia, Oct. 5.-The appeal to
the supreme court Of S. J. Kirby,
one of the murder trio in the state
penitentiary, under sentence of
death for the murder Of William
Brazell, will not be completed, ac-
cording to announcement today by
A. B. Martin, of Lexington, attorney
for the condemned man, and Kirby
will die on the twenty-frst, along
with C. o. Fox. The appeal will not
be completed because of the fact
that Mr.. Martin has received a report
to the effect that Kirby is not insane,
the point on which he proposed to
base the appeal. =:
The appeal Of Gappins, it is un-
derstood, will be completed, this
postponing his execution until su-
preme court can pass on his case,
which will probably give him six
months or a year more Of life.
