Joking aside, the lights were first-class and gave abundant satisfaction, except possibly on the outskirts where there was an insufficient number of lamps.

"We are glad to say that Rev. J. A. White is better and was able to preach for ub last Sabbatb. He preached a fine sermon from this text: 'Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.' It was a very bad day, but there was a good crowd out." 1. Should the writer's individual gladness have been stated ? 2. Doesan ordained minister "preach a fine sermon T Isn't he supposed to preach the gos pel 7 3. What is meant by "There was* a good crowd out?" What connection is there between "a bad lay" and "a good crowd out?" Who were "crowded out?' Wai the church encumbered b.7 access of numbers or qunanj tity? What matter or persons crowded out the "good crowd" who came to hear or worship? SABBATH SERVICE. Divine Service iu the Associate Re* formed Church. \ Rev. T. W. siotin is giving abundant satls\ lacllon in bis utnv cnurcli at Abbeville. His \ sermons are able aud hi* inturcourne with our people is of the must pleasant nature. ! L<ast Sabbath morning he spoke of temptation. He said there were two meaning to ? that word. When tne Almighty uses the word It Is meant to be understood that he uses It and intends it to be as a test. The "temptation" which would lead us into sin comes from the Evil One, and Is meant to draw us into harmful ways. The preacher said that all men had their weaker points, and that as man is a free agent, this fact implied his possession of the power to resist evil. He pictured the paths of righteousness to be open to all men, while the preacher left the inference that the Almighty was good to Oil mfin onrt that rmr Soslnr a?as a frlenrt nf sinners?that no one set of men bad preempted the right to Divine favor. While we would not attempt to give * remote Idea of what he did say, yet It may be fair to say that the tendency of blB sermon was to keep men in the higher and belter ways. It occurred to us that, while he himself was standing on high ground be seemed ready to extend the rescuing hand even to ?those who might be sinking in the depths of accumulated sin. It appears to be bis wish to encourage us to the effort to free ourselves from the chains of sin, when we might stand erect before men, and Loco me the loving and dutiful children of our Fp.ther. And while the preacher declared that all men were free agents and capable of choosing between right and wrong, yet be did not tell us bow those who have become wayward may seek and find the will-power which is necessary to restrain us from the sins to which we are inclined. The trouble with the wayward llee In the fact that they do not desire to cbaLg? their ways. They may say they can't resici, but the right way to say it is, they have not the will to resist.

Washington Street yesterday evening for a short time was the scene of an exciting incident. An animal In siDgle harness, became lrlgbtened, and proceeded to run as fast as be could. He took to tbe sidewalk, and tbe wagon came lu contact with Mr. Wilfceiwon's garden seeds which were In vessels of various kinds. The vessels were overturned, and the seeds were sent flying everywhere. The wagon was turned top-side up with tbe driver underneath tbe outfit. He caught the axle tree of the wagon and was drawn along tbe street, until some one stopped the animal, when things were set to rights. The dust and dirt were brushed Irom the driver's clothes, and he seemed to be still in tbe ring. Mrs. Chapman seelug the whole trouble felt sorry tor the little boy aud called him Into her store and gave him a big stick of candy.

In Dlscnsslnjf Hawalan Bill He Declares that "We Don't Do Hair ttie Devilment In South Carollua as That Bill Proposes to Do In Hawaii. Washington, Feb. 24.?Throughout the session to-day the Senate had under consideration the Hawaiian government bill. The discussion took a wide range, but the basis of it was an amendment oflered by Mr,. Piatt (Conn.) as to the appointment and tenure of office of the Judges of the Hawaiian courts. Mr.Tillman (S. C.) embraced the opportunity to deliver a characteristic speech, la the course of which he made a stinging attack upon Mr. Morgan (Ala.) and vigorously opposed many provisions of the bill, particularly those which relate to suffrage. Mr. Penrose (Pa.) gave notice that he would call up the Quay case again on Mdndayand would insist on its consideration. In course of the consideration of the Hawaiian government bill, Mr. Tillman made a vehement attack upon the measure and arraigned Senator Morgan lor alleged lack of courtesy. "lne uneurouy wuicu oauis iu unnan, declared Mr. Tillman, "and whloh this bill perpetuates ispowerlul and unscruplous. It is an autocracy greater than ever existed outside of Russia. "1 sympathize with tbe Senator trom Connecticut in hla efforts to secure a properly appointed judiciary for the islands?a Judiciary not controlled by the oligarchy which now has its grip on tbe Islands.'* Referring to an incident which occurred tbe other day In which Mr. Morgan (Ala.) declined to yield to Mr. Tillman to reply to a statement made by Mr. Woloott (Colo.) concerning tbe "suppressed vote." Mr. Tillman said : "1 have felt indignant at the trettment I received from tbe senator (Morgan). Never in my experience in tbe Senate have I been treated so discourteously by a member of tbe Senate." Mr. Morgan endeavored to interrupt Mr. Tillman, but the latter waved him aside, saying,"! decline to yield to tbe Senator, lie has put himself outside tbe pale of courtesy and considerations so far as 1 am concerned." He then explained the circumstances of Mr. Morgan s refusal to permit blm to reply to Mr. Wolcott. "When 1 rose to explain the situation in South Carolina as it was presented by tbe Senator from Colorado," said Mr. Tillman, the Senator from Alabama said: 'No, I cannot permit you to speak now. I'll leave you to light it out some other time.' II was tbe ilrst time in my experience that I had ever been refused a hearing in like circumstances. No Republican would have denied me the privilege because there Is no man on that side of the chamber so lacking in courtesy and decency." Mr. Tillman then explained that under tbe the present constitution of South Carolina there were about 111,000 registered voters, 34,000 of whom were colored. Ninety-nine per ceai, 01 iae wnue vuie iu wu auiiu, uc euiu, was Democratic. Id tbe summer primaries fully *J? per cent of the registered votes were cast. At these primaries toe contests lor tbe State officers were made* "Tbere Is no lethargy In the polltlcsof South Carolina," said Mr. Tillman. "We have as mucb politics to tbe square mile as any State in tbe Union. Tbere Is do Republican party In tbe State. Tbe Republican machine Is composed of Federal office-holders who control of tbe patronage and Bend delegates to the Repu bllcan national conventions." "The elections In November are simply ratifications of the primaries. Naturally tbe result being a foregone conclusion only 4,000 or 5.000 voters turn out In each dlstxlct to vote." ,, , i After calling attenllpo to tbe liaot tbatat tbe general eleotion la Massachusetts In 1S90 only 2S3.000 votes were cast out of a voting population of 665,000; and that at tbe same election In Connecticut the vote was 125,000 out of 224,000 legal voters, be said : "Why do they accuse us of the Soutb of suppressing tbe vote when they are doing tbe same thing in Massachusetts. Why we don't do half tbe devilment in Soutb Carolina as this bill pro* poses to do In Hawaii. This bill will give four or five years more to contract labor?of slave labor?to tbe sugar barens, who In remitted duties on sugar will make 88,000,000." In tbe course of a criticism of the measure Mr. Tillman said: "I do not object to a protection of tbe whites of Hawaii, bat what I do object to is tbe hypocrisy of those iu this obamber who maintain that the people of Hawaii are to be treated differently from those people who reside In Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and other Southern States. The whites of the South are patriotic Americans. < T niont ia nrntont tha mhttoa In H O TV a 11 Knt don't try to do it by bypoorisy." Mr. Tillman tben read u letter from a person unnamed who declared "tbat a man who dares to oppose the sugar barons In Hawaii was In Joepaniy of his life." Mr. Clark, (wyo.) asked for the name of the writer of toe letter, saying such a charge ought not to be made lightly In the Senate. Mr. Tillman declined to give the writer's name. In conclusion Mr. Tillman declared : "I propose to offer as an amendment to this bill the suffrage provision ol the South Carolina constitution and I dare you to vote for It and I dare you not to vote for it." After expressing symptaby with the argument ol Mr. Tillman, Mr. Clark (NVyso.) said : ''When the Senator from South Carolina charges Senators on the Republican side of the chamber with hypocrasy It oomes lu very poor grace from blm to declare by Almighty God that tne negroes of the South should not vote." Mr. Tillman : "Such a construction cannot In fairness be put upon my remarks." Mr. Clark: "Will you say to this Senate tbat you are not trying in the South to suppress the negro vote ?" Mr. Tillman (with great vehemence :) "No. I will Bay tbat in South Carolina' we have done our level best to keep the -nigger' from voting." After an extended discussion of the pending amendment without result, Mr. Tillman gave notice of an amendment substituting the suffrage provisions of the pending bill. ....
