In the last issue of the A. R. Presbyterian from an interesting account 06 the Rock Hill convention of the | fifth annual session of the Woman's Missionary union of the First presbytery we clip as follows: "Mrs. J, W.

It will be interesting to a great many people to know that right here at their very doors is a tree growing the same kind of little round hard black pepper they buy at the stores. I will be news to them. They never dreamed of such a hing. Probably a serious fire was prevented Saturday evening by the presence of mind of Mr. Otto Wiiliams, while operating the moving picture machine at the opera house. About 6.30 o clock the film caught fire from the lamp house of the machine, and Mr. Williams picked up the burning film, ran with it down the steps and threw it out of the window. His thoughtfulness, while it endangered his life) was a good acr, although the film, valued at about $75, was entirely con- . sumed by the flames. Mr. E. H.
