He obtained his education at Wofford College making a record at that institution. In fact he was con sidered one of the brightest minds ever in the college. He entered the South Carolina conference and served actively several years. His sermons were always gems of thought and eloquence. In 1889 Mr. Moore moved to Florence with his family and soon afterwards began the publication of the Centenary. For four or five years the paper came out, and in its field achieved an enviable and well-dressed reputation. Just be fore his death the publication of t he Centenary was resumed. Though feeble and frail, he worked upon it with untiring energy, and the splendid January number showed what A. W. Moore could do even in his dying moments. As to the future of the paper we do not now know. Mr. Moore was a loyal and en thusiastic Pythian and for some time had been the traveling repre sentative of the Pythian Lodge Secret. His column in that paper entitled “Across the Continent” formed one of ite best features, sim ply because it scintillated with the brightness of A. W. Moore's intel lect. “A Book of Travels” was the title of a work which he had partially completed at the time of his death, and the second part of which set forth Pythianism in the United States. But his work on earth is done. A strong and earnest believer iu fraternity he now rests in a ceme tery which bean the n.irne “Fra ternal.” morning and every uav* night sessions.

Helena, Ark, January 26.—At 7.50 o’clock to-night this city was startled by a severe earthquake shock. Houses were shaken to their foundations and a succession of noises were heard that sounded like immense explosions. The people who had assembled in the Presby terian Church for prayer meeting rushed out of the church, expect ing the walls to tumble * down upon them. There were three distinct | shocks within quick succession, the ; first being the most severe, oceupy- ! ing less than half a dozen seconds. They were succeeded by a trembling or shaking motion and not by the usual swaying and waving motion. Telephone messages from country points indicate that the shock was felt at many places.^ Sale Under Chattel Mortgage. Under and by virtne of two bills of sale exeented by W. 8.
