The speaker advised the members of the Beth-Shiloh association to take steps toward securing a pastor and see that services were hold in that church each Sunday. He saw no reason why this could not be done and was sure that it would be of great value to the members of the Heth-Shiloh Christian Kndeavor society and the community at large. The Work in India. In the current issue of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian, Miss Mary Lesslie contributes an interesting sketch of one of the many problems with which she is daily confronted. Miss Lesslie is a daughter of Mr. \V. S. Ijcsslie of Ia-sslie No. 1. She writes as follows, under a Montgomery, India, date line of June 29: "Thitt morning a woman came to the dispensary to have some burns dressed. One hand and arm were right badly burned and there was a burn on the other hand and some burns on her body. When I asked how it happened they told me that she got burnt while smoking a "hmpia," (big Indian pipe.) I do not know just how it was dyne but it seems that she ought to be willing to give up the ' hmpia" (pipe) after such a lessen, on one arm she had some strings and charms tied. I asked why they were tied on her arm. They said that was to keep the evil spirits from making the burns worse. Mrs. Richards, the medical woman, told the woman to let her cut them off, but she would not con sent. She said, "No, don't cut them off here." I do not imagine she would cut them off when she got home either. We learned that this woman was once a Roman Catholic and had become a Mohammedan. She said she had been a Mohammedan for about six years. She got a good talk before she left the dispensary, but she did no,' seem to be very much interested. \ hope, as she comes from time to time I for treatment, she will be more willing to hear." SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS ? It is estimated that the cotton acreage in Charleston county this year in long and short staple is 32,000. ? J. A.

Stoker, a metal worker of Columbia, fell thirty feet from the top of a building in Camden this week, sustaining serious bruises. ? Army worms have appeared in Greenville county in large numbers, and the farmers are getting instructions as to how to guard against them. ? Dr. George Bennett, a South Carolina fcoy who has been doing hospital work on the battlefields of Europe, has returned to this country. He predicts that the European struggle will last at least one year longer. ? Some days ago, D. W. Robinson, secretary of the steering committee of the prohibition movement, made application to Attorney General Peepies to intervene in the hearing on the injunction to be argued today. Gen. Peeples repli.ed that he had no objection whatever, stating that if the court gave permission it would be all right with him. ? At the annual meeting of the Parker cotton mill merger in Greenville last Monday, Lewis W. Parker invoked a provision of the state constitution in his own behalf in a way that opened the eyes of the other stockholders of the merger. Upon the development of that heavy jolt to the mill as the result of the heavy slump in cotton futures following the breaking out of the European war, Parker became persona no grata to his colleagues of the merger directorate and was virtually kicked off the board. He was still the nominal owner of quite a large block of stock in the merger and going into the meeting of the stockholders, he asserted his constitutional right to vote his stock for himself and a basis of one vote for each share for each director to be elected. That, is he multiplied the number of shares he holds by the number of directors to be elected and cast all the votes for himself, thus making himself a. director regardless of the desires of the other members of the board. ? Lowndesville, August 18: Miss Annie Bell, of this place, has had charge of a school five miles east, for some time. Last Monday evening she had dismissed the school and she and the pupils were walking in the yard when there came a flash of lightning, which struck a tree a few yards away, also struck and shattered one or two telephone posts, also one or two posts holding the electric plant wires, shattered them, struck the hoisted umbrella, shivered it, shocked her so that she fell unconscious, killed outright one of the little girls by her side, a little daughter of Mr. Geo. Hill, ten or twelve years of age, and severely shocked about fifteen of the other pupils. The teacher has so far recovered from her shock and fright, as to be able to resume her duties as teacher, but when a meeting was called Wednesday to decide when the school should begin again, it was determined not to open it again during the remainder of the term, as the pupils could not be persuaded to go there again; they all have a wholesome dread of the place. MERE-MENTION Dr. L. Harris of Jacksonville, Fla., was this week chosen president of the Seaboard Air Line Surgeon's association at the annual meeting of that organization in Wilmington, N.

German aeroplane which was sailing over Dutch territory this week Pitcher "Bill" James has been bought by the Detroit, Mich., team from the St. Louis Mo., American league team. The price i>aid was $15,000. ? Some mysterious and uncanny things happened in Atlanta before dawn last Monday morning in connection with the lynching of Leo M. Frank?things which pass the bounds of ordinary comprehension and recall the ancient belief that strange psychic influences are in the air when tragedy is afoot. At least two incidents, either enough to send a cold shiver down the spine, are vouched for by reputable men, and bring to mind the pages of history which tell that on the night of a certain tragedy in Home the lions of the Capitoline hill roared with strange fear and that shrieks which came from nowhere were heard i in the darkened streets. About midnight, or shortly afterward, on the night when Frank was lynched, a bull dog belonging to Adjutant General J. Van Holt Nash, awakened the general at his country home by rushing to his bed and barking violently. The dog's hair stood up on its back from fright ai.d excitement. Presently two other dogs on the place began to whine and sniff the air and bark excitedly. Nothing could be found to [account for the strange actions of the animals, but they could not be made to hush. It was nearly two hours afterward that the telephone rang violently and the first intimation of what had happened was received by the adjutant general. The other incident concerns a well known Atlanta imsinovii man who was a member of the grand jury which originally indicted Leo M. Frank, lie had gone to bed early, without having a single thought that he can now recall in connection with the Frank case. Shortly after midnight, about the seme time the other described event occurred, he awoke as if from a nightmare, bathed in cold perspiration and his wife told him that he had been trembling like a leaf in his sleep. He had dreamed that he saw Leo Frankled from the state farm, pale as death, with a rope around his neck, and placed in an automobile. He said the dream was so vivid that in it he saw a fencecorner with weeds growing, and a cotton patch indistinct in the darkness beyond it. After telling his wife, he went back to sleep, thinking that it had been simply a vivid nightmare. About four hours afterward he was awakened a second time, this time by newsboys shouting that Frank hail been taken by the mob. It is out of fashion to believe in supernatural things, and both these incidents may easily have merely been strange coincidences. but however one may choose to view them, they did actually occur. Money to Finance Crops.?Comptroller of the Currency Williams announced yesterday that the present unemployed loaning capacity of national banks and reserve banks was sufficient to finance at market value the entire cotton crop and half if not all of the tobacco and wheat crops and to conservatively justify an expansion of credit of two or three billion dollars. A statement Issued by the comptroller referred to the prospect for unusual demands for funds, particularly in the event cotton should be declared contraband by the European belligerents and declared a survey of the conditions of the national and reserve banks was distinctly encouraging. Never before, Mr. Williams said, had the banks been so strong and so thoroughly prepared to handle any problem that might be presented to them. AT THE CHURCHES. FIRST PRESBYTERIAN Rev. E. E.
