THE MISSION 'CAUSE. ' | | J0 Interesting Lecture by Dr. J. W. ^ Wolling in O'Neall Strfeet Methodist Church on Sunday Evening. At the urge ill iiivilation of Kev. ? Mr. Mailer, pastor of the O'Neall Street Miethodisl church, Dr. .J. \Y. Wolling attended that church on Sunday night and lectured on the ? mission cause. The congregation was g very large, it being necessary to ' place chairs in all the aisles to ac- ? commodate the crowd. The singing was very good and the most undivid*'ed attention was given to the lecture. After speaking about the prepara, tion necessary in the home churches to do missionary work, I)r. "Wolling hung up his large mission map and spoke of the work of the Methodist S church in the Orient and in the Latin ^ f countries, such as Cuba, Mexico and W Brazil. Some touching examples li m were given of the need of God's word and of the gospel worker especially in Brazil, where the lecturer had worked for twenty years. Then was given descriptions of the natural wonders of that sub-tropical clime, / the enchanting beauty of (lie birds (J and insects, and some facts as to the /i serpents, especially the boa-const ricI tor. To say that the lecture was truly interesting is mild praise, this being evidenced by the undivided atf tent ion of the large audience and by I the large number who remained to ai I thank the speaker and urge him to return. 3] IT lie O'Neall Street Methodist b) W church is a very creditable structure, ^ conveniently arranged. They have just finished paying tl their indebtedness and there seems ~ io be much enthusiasm among the \ \ members. ' DISPENSARY BILLS KILLED.

Respectfully, M. F. Ansel, h, Governor. T Executive Chamber, I |Colnnibia, S. C., March ;?. 1008. I Mr. Nicholson introduced in the I house a bill requiring the State treasf , urer to pay out to the dispensary 1,1 commission $15,000 lo 1>c? used in ' 1 prose cut ing the alleged ''graft ' cases ( said sum to be returned to the Stale treasury when the funds taken in 111 charge by the United Stales are avail- m ' able. This bill passed Hie house and died in the senate. sl After the disposition of the bill relat/ing to the payment of expenses at ^ the. night session of the senate on Friday might Senator Briee called up J'1 the. legislation offered to place all the .Slate dispensary funds in the Jl control of the State, treasury and make other provisions so as to pro- d< vide further means and methods of giving the State entire control of the funds and the winding up of the dis- nl pensary. Senator Brice. explained hi that I lie bill had been prepared by M those in charge of the Slate's fight |u in the dispensary cases, and if pass- ' ed was expected to remove the wliol.3 ^ matter beyond the control and adjudi- u cation of the federal court. nr 'Mr. Brice said he was not very fa- at miliar with the matter, but thought ce he could explain that the bill would er k materially strengthen the State's In-1 k case.
