The greatest. Louis exposition
exists DOW only in memory. The
many handsome buildings in
which exhibits were placed that

It seems that damage seekers
have let up on the railroads for a
time and are paying their respects
to the telegraph companies. "Men
tal anguish" suits, as they are
called, now appear upon almost
every civil calendar. People who
in the past were not thought tobe
BUBceptble of a pang or heart-acbe
now suffer a thousand deaths, so.
set forth io their complaints, from
*mental anguish."
Nothing daunted by the over
whelming defeat of the Hammond
- county project, the citizens of cer
tain po-tious of Aikeu and Edge
field counties are endeavoring tc
form a uew county known as Hey
ward county. A petitiou an?
. other necessary papers have beer
filed with the governor who wil
probably take some action at ai
early day. Governor Hey ware
also has under consideration tbi
McCormick couuty matter. Ai
between these two proposed nev
. counties it seems to be a case o
'.pull Dick, pull Devil," and let u
hope that "Dick" and the "Devil
will defeat each other.

who waa high in authority in al

zenith of its power-and glory, if
you please-suggests that the

The Baptist State convention
haB just closed one of thc bus:
sessions of its history. Cheater was
easily reached by railroad, hence
we had a large delegation. The re
ports of the different boards were
encouraging, and. showed an in
crease of twenty five per cent over

the secretary and treasurer of the
Foreign Mission Board told the
convention what the board was
doing through our missionaries on
Foreign fields. Thirty /ive new
missionaries have been appointed
since last May. He is anxious to
have one hundred new men on the
field by next May. The Lord is
opening the field and giving us
the money. We should pray that
men would be willing to give them
selves to this great work. Dr. Gray
of Atlanta is the secretary and
