The Bumter District Coherence. The Sumter District Conference met at Kershaw last week, Presiding Elder Clyde being present and occupying the chair. Rev. Peter Stokes was elected Secretary, and Rev. S. W. Ilenry, assis tant Sooretary. The attendance was very good, and conference was e'egantly entertained by Kershaw's hospitable people. We were in attendance upon the ses sions of the conference, Thursday and Friday. Our esteemed friend, Mr. T). R. Fletcher, had us in charge, and gave us a particularly cordial welcome. "Rich" is si whole-souled fellow and one of our best friends, and it was es pecially pleasant to be with him. Thursdayafternoon he gave us a buggy ride, and let us see the more interest ing places of this thriving town. We do not know that we have but a sin gle orlticlBtn to make of Kershaw, and as we were so kindly treated by every one, we have a good notion not to make the criticism, but we will. We notioed that her merchants were not as gener ous to their olerks ss the Camden merchants are to their clerks In that they do not close up very early, Our merchants close up at 0 o clock, so that the olerks can have some recreation, but the Kershaw merchants do not. They are, nevertheless clever business people, and perhaps had never con sidered this matter. We were delighted with our visit among them, ana shall not fall out with them if they do not get to closing np at six o'olock in the evenlngR, and let their olever olerks havoa little rec reation .

Life if sustained by various compli cated functions of the animal or vege table being. Though in man we know that the beating or the heart, sending through oar veins that Uf ? giving fluid, blood, supports life, yet, in order that the "fountain of life" may properly perform its duty, the Muscular Ner vous, Ubspitory, Excretory, and Di gestive systems must act lu harmony with It. xNo one can answer definitely what life Is, for this Is a problem to be solved only in the Hereafter, Now what leeaous do wo draw from life? Why all; there is nothing, but what we see illustrated by life. The eoonnmlats may produce theory after theory, but they do not form so oonvincive an ar gument as that brought forward by the plant. It sheds ita leaves; they, fall* ing around Its roots, decay and nourish the plant, the next season reappearing as new branches, twigs and leaves. Again life teaches us the advantage of working together, for if one of the various systems should fail to do Its v\ork, life would cease. Sympathy la another lesson; for through the means of the Sympathetic nervous system, if one organ be effected, the others wlJl a?8o be retarded in their fUnctlona. Now is there no ulfferenoe In life? >V hy yes, man lives forever, but the brutes and plants perish. Man la im mortal, for though nls bwly perish, his soul survives. Death is not his ex tinction, but his entrance Into immor tality. For as the aoorn, with its germ surrounded by the cotyledons, is alive, but it does not attain Ita perfect life until the cotyledons die and the germ then bursts torth. So with life; our present bodies the cotyledous, our soul the germ, we never come into perfect life until the body is dead, and the aoul assumes immortality. _ E. O. DePass. Grade IX, Age 10. LIFE. A man's life if the space of time that God has given him to do his part of work in the Great Design that will not be completed until the Angel of God shall stand with one foot on the land and the other on the sea and shall thunder forth the awful words, "Time was, Time is, but Time shall be no more." But it lies with man whether he will make use of his opportunity and help to make this Great Design of Life beautiful and faultless, or a mass of ijluriw and failures Longfellow says, "Life is real, Life is earnest," and 1 think we sometimes forget this, for most of us seem to think that thia lit tle space is an opportunity to have all the pleasure we can, aud nothing else. We forget that each act of our lives Is, as it were, a brick that helps to raake the building beautiful or worthleaa, ao cording to tne quality of each brick. Life is a succession of mysteries, of thought and of acts that seem to ua dark mysteries. And yet a well ordered life is one of the moat beautiful things that God has ever set his seal of approval on. This word that wo are discussing seems to possess a magic charm, that can move the strongest and weakest alike. Listen to a dying man and you will almost always hear him pleading for a little more lite; and, oh, how sorrowful he feels when bethinks of his, ill-spent and lost life, and compares it with the grand successful ones of the shining ex amples of the world . We have been looking only at the human life, but will now turn to the vegetable and animal life of the world. First start at the Equator and there we will And a great variety of vegeta ble growth, of birds with brilliant, plumage, of animals with every con ceivable form and color. In this re gion the rivers are teeming with alli gators, rhinoceroses and many kind of strange animals. As we go northward we find the use ful animals, such as the horse, cow, sheep and many others. This Temperate Zone is the region of large trees and most of the cereals. But when we reach the Frigid Zone, we are in the beautiful glittering world where great icebergs come gilding down the streams, and where the fu^-bearlng animals delight to frolic In the icy waters. In this region the vegetable growth is soanty, and only moss, lich ens and Or trees art; found there. When the great Aurora Borealis is sending its beautiful floods of oolored light on every thing, and lighting up this whole frozen region, I know it must look like Fairyland. Certainly the little people who inhabit this re gion must enjoy the lovely scene. Although this life is very sweet and beautiful to us, surely we would not be satisfied to let it slip away without our thinking and preparing for the beauti ful world that we may all Inhabit if we want to do so. ? Corrie Mathls Ago 15, Grade 8. LIFB, There are many various views and ideas of life. By some, it is looked npon as a "passing shadow i" by others, as only an "idle dream/' more gleasant to some than to others, ome say that life is simply a "prepa ration for death ;" poets speak of it as a "fleeting breath." Bnt there is one great conclusion whioh all mnst agree npon, that is that life is just what you make it. Let na think of life as a great piotnre One aide is bright and beantifnl, the other is dark and uncertain. Every o&e has, at some time in life, had the deoision to make for themselves aa to whioh aide of this piotnre they wonld look npon. Or think cf life as having only two roads, one of which leads to better things, the other to worse. Theee two waya have been pointed ont to ns, and we know them very well by the experience of those who have gone before ns; bo when we younger ones stand npon the thresh hold and have it in onr power to de oide on whioh road we will go, there is no exouse for making an eiror. If we ohoose the wrong way, we aoon find ourselves enoirofed by olonds of tiouble and misfortune. We then realize that it wonld have been so mnch better to have done, as onr seniors advised us to do. It is ..his class of peoplo *b'\ when they see their mistake too late, in their ditpair , give vent to their feelings by Speak ing bi:ter trnth, "Life is not worth lining " Those words are spoken by many, but if their life is not worth li\ing, they have no one to blame but themselvea. Home boysbeootne di soon raged very early in life, because their circum stances are uri favorable; they should not do this. If they will take illus trations from history, they will see that some of oar greatest men were "self-made" They should let this encourage them to pave a way for themselves, to strive harder and, by the aid of their friends, rise to promi nence. We are now standing npon the threshold of life. Will we live bad, worthless livee, ones thst will help to drsg hnmsnity down, or will we live pure blameless livee, ones that may be held un before the world as beoon lights? We alone can answer this most important of questions. Hicks Fort. Age 16 ? Grade 9. ? ??For delicione Ice Cream, go to City Fruit Htore, OU AT INVENTIONS AND 1HSOOVKHIKH. From the primitive ages down to the present time, man ban constantly been lift ing himself by various in vent ioos and discoveries from tbe ob scure state which he first oooupied. ' The inventions wb'ob have bene fited the world moat are, printing, tbe steam engine and boat, and tbe tleotrio telegraph. Printing was first tiaed by the Chinese, batGotenburg and Faust of Germany invented fltovable type. This art has been greatly improved npon, and now holds each a prominent place in the civi lised world that it would be almost impossible to do without it As a general role, discoveries lead to io ventions, as when tbe power of stesm was discovered by Watts, it was soou applied to the steam engine, wbicb was in sented by Stephenson, also to tbe steam boat, whioh was invented bv Fulton. After Frankiiu discovered electricity, Prof. Morse invented the wonderfnl electric telegraph. Tbe benefit wbicb these inventions are to tbe world is almost incalculable. It ia indeed a stride from where all news had to be oarried by post mau and horse-man. The news of battles fought in Greeoe yesterday is sent by cable to New York, instantly from tbexe bv telegraph, to all important oities; during tbe night it ii printed, and the next morning the papers are sent, by fast mail trains, to all parts of the country. Thtos the news or the old world is made known to us in about twentypfonr hours. The dis covery of the Roselta Stone ay Cham pOftlion is of great value to history. It is indeed tbe key to ancient bis-, tory, for schollara, by comparing tbe other two forms of writing with tbe Greek writing upon it, learn to read in anoient writing. After tbis, tbey were able to read all the inscriptions and records found in the EaM, Edison, the electrioian, has in vented many wonderful and useful things. The number of his inven tions is over three hundred It is ?aid that be playB with electrioity as obild does with toys I think bis most wonderful inventions are tbe telephone and the phonograph. Hicks Fort Age 16 --Grade 9. CORRBNT HISTORY Id the last year, numerous events of great importance have occurred all about over the world, exciting the io trest of every individual. Irom our own immediate land to distant and hitherto remote regions of Europe and Asia, onr attention is riveted. We pick op the papers eagerly to see the latest news of Cuba, Armenia, Crete and Greece. First came the Venezuelan trouble, whioh concerns us directly, when "pncle Sam" shewed the world that his rights were not to be overlooked, nor his principles trodden npon. Tbo Monroe Doctrine was brought into prominence, and our great system of arbitration called into power to pre vent war; the treaty is uot yet com pleted bnt is now before Congress The Cuban War, which haB been go ing on about a year and a half, is ?till in progree?, though the two armies have not been as aotive of late. The whole United States has a feeling of great sympathy with the Ottbans, as we, ourselves were in tbo same position abont a century and a quarter ago. Many men have smug gled shiploads of powder to these brTve defenders of their rights, and enthusiastio sympathizers have sailed N ho.'p the pi nek? ' patriots protect their island. We shall greatly re gret if their oaose be ciushed. Every Christian Nation has looked on the war between Armenia and Turkey with keen expectation. Yet not one of them has interfered, by nord or power, to prevent the awful massacres of the poor armenians The Turks were allowed to continue their bloody oonauestB, immersing the whole oountry in its native blood; aod the Christian powers, to uphold some deluding policies, have allowed suoh depredations to be inflicted upon a helpless ohriscian people. Surely the times must be degene rated! - The Turks allowed to pur sue their inhumaine course, next at tacked the Christians in the iBle of Crete, and the Greekp, out of love for their daughter colony and showing a spark of their former hatred of op pression, did more than the stronger nations dared, or would not do? they helped the oppressed. That step, of course, involved a train of eveuts. War was declared between Greece aqdJTurkey, and the Greeks with the dlharaoteristic energy of their fore fathers, set to work to resist the oruelties of the Turks. Although Prinoe Constantino was everywhere victorious at first, it is plainly seen that these valiant martyrs cannot Lold out long, even although they havo a "Joan of Arc" to lead them on to victory. Besides the wars, whioh have the most far-reaohing effeots, there have latelj been very deetrootive floods in the lower Mississippi valley, oausing great loss of property and distress A great fire broke out in Paris a day 01 ?wo ago, in a charity bazaar, in whioh many of the nobility were killed, and still more severely woun ded.
