Last Friday night what might ive proven a very serious affair )ok place on the grounds of the ear ival. Mr. Mitehell Wright and Mr. 'om Burley had some difference 'hich resulted in Mr. Burley striking [r. Wright over the head with a po cema,n's billy, and Mr. Wright shot t Mr. Burley three or four times ,ith a pistol. Fortunately though iere was a large crowd on the rounds only one stray bullet struck ny of the people who were aro;nd, ad that hit Mr. Boyd Jacobs in the )ot inflicting a painful though not serious wound. One of the shots 'took effect in Mr. arlev's shoulder inflicting a painful esh wound and Mr. Wright has a were gash on the top of his head in icted by the billy in the hands of [r. Burley. Just what gave rise to ieir quarrel has not been learned. r. Ellisor attended Mr. Burley and ressed his wound. The bullet was [so cut out of the foot of Mr. Ja bs by Drs. Pelham and Ellisor the xt morning. Mr. Wright was also ven medical attention, and no one as seriously hurt. It is criminal, however, to fire a stol even at your enemy in a crowa ch as was present at the carnivai ,ounds on Friday evening, and it is )rtunate that no innocent- persoin as seriously hurt. The same night a negro drew a pis >l but was pursued by one of the iow men so quickly that he did no image. He was tried on Saturday orning before the mayor and fined 5.00 for carrying a pistol, which he uid. The case against Messrs. Wright 2d Burley will be heard before the .ayor this morning.

SYNOD CLOSES. A, Successful Session-Business ot Importance to the Church Con sidered. During the latter part of last week alnd yesterday, elising with last night, the one hundred and fifth session of the A. R. P. synod has been in ses sion in Newberry. The meeti'ngs have been largely at tended and much enjoyed by not on ly the delegates and visitors present but by a large number of the citiz ens of the city, and it ,is recognized that there are many very strong preachers in the synod. The body fid good work while in session here. The next meeting will be held at Bar tow, Fla. Up to Thursday evening the pro eeedings have been reported in The Rerald and News. On Thursday even ing Rev. William Duncan, of Char lotte, N. C., preached a very strong ermon on foreign missions. He is in eloquent preacher and made many trong points in favor of this field f Christian work. An invitation was received from the synod of the Lutheran church to neet with them and join in the inau nuration of President Harms. The nvitation was accepted and a com nittee of twelve, headed by the mod arator, was appointed to attend. After devotional exercises on Fr lay morning reports from the differ ent presbyteries were recaived ana some of them acted upon and some eferred to committees. The Texas presbytery asked to be iismissed from synod to be united ,vith the United Presbyterian church. rhis request was referred to a com nittee. but was granted by the synod. The question of changing the name of Due West Female college wa,, brought up. The names proposee, vere "Clark college," "Bonner col ege," "Kennedy college,' also 'Woman's College of Due West." ater the name remained the same as it has always been. At eleven o'clock Rev. S. J. Pat terson, of Monticello, Ark., preached to a crowded church. His subject wa, 'The drawing power of Christ," and it was a good, thoughtful, and practi al sermon. At the afternoon service on Friday Rev. S. W. Haddon, of Old Provi ence, Va., was elected nevt modera tor. On Friday evening Rev. R. E. Hough preached a thoughtful ser mon on home missions. The .session Saturday morning opened with devotional service con ducted by Rev. S. W. Haddon, ot Raphine, Va. The committee on for sign missions submitted its report in full. The call of the foreign board, through its chairman, Dr. F. Y. Pressly, for five new missionaries to labor in Mexico and India was ap proved. Upon the irecommendation of Rev. J. R. Edwards and othe1 missionaries, it 'was decided to open~ L1 the middle ground between Tam pico and Rio Verde to mission work. This will be done just as soon as practicable. Rev. T. G. Boyce, D. D., of Brighton, Tenn., was selected to isit the field in Mexico before the next meeting of the synod, the treas urer of -the board to pay the expent es of the trip, provided the cost wilh not exceed .$150. The address of Hon. George Gordon, of Atlanta, on the lamen's movement in the A. R. P. ehurch was highly instructive .and will most likely prove of great ser ice i- bettering the financial cond1 tion of the church's work. The re port on Due West Female college was received and noted that $3000~ had been expended on improvement of the main building without an in crease of the debt. Mr's. A. G. Brice, of Chester by 'a rising vote of the synod was thanked for her excellent work in raising funds for the new building on the college campus. She was instrumen tal in raising $2,645 for this pur pose. At 11 o'clock Rev. M. R. Henry, D. D., of Oak Hill, Ali., preached a very helpful sermon. Di. Henry is reconed as one of the ablest preachers in the synod. Probably the most interesting feature of the en tire meeting was the address in the afternoon of Rev. J. K. McClurkiti, D. D., of Pittsburg. Pa.. who convey edl fraternal greettings to the synod from the general assembly of the United Presbyterians of the Nortth. In closing the speaker expressed his belief that the time has come for or ganic union of the two churches which are identical in doctrine, and have a common history. Rev. W. H. Millen replied to 'this address and al so expressed the b.elief that the two churches were slowly drawling near er each other, and expressed the hiopt ha:t eve'n tually they would be one. Satur day evening Rev. R. L. Rob. inson, of Camden, Ala.. preacheda spendid sermon on "'Christian Edut ea'tion.'' On Sunday morni ng Rex. cd a most elpnfnT sermn, after which LUTHERAN SYNOD CLOSES.
