.Soeond. While recoguiziu& tho value
and growth of tho Fp worth League of
tho respective churches and rejoicing
in th? spirit of the fraternity mani
fftstAil in their biennial national
oonfertnooa in the abaenoe of any legal
provision for it is suggested to tho

recognizing and regulating it by lugal
provisions.
Third. That iho gonoral conforeno?ft
of tho respective chijreb.es bo r?6'ota
meudod to adopt measures for tho joint
administiation of thoir publishing in

Fourth. That while appreciating

SMALLPOX AT CHARLOTTE,
All Precautions Ha\*o llecn Tnlscn to,
Prevent Its Spread. /
Two eases of smallpox havo dovoH
oped in Charlotte, *N. , both*

precautionary stops have been taken to
keep the dreaded disease from spread

outside of the city limita find the city
box id of aldermen hsvo paasod an
ordinance making vaccination compul

\Vherover in tho South smallpox has
made ita appearance it has boon of an
extremely mild form, so much bo that
in many cases it has been exceedingly
di moult to distinguish it from tl'.o or

THE HOUSE.
2-lin Pat,? Til a question of fronting
belligerent richts to the Cubans was
argued in the lEonso, but the minority
hurlod itaolf against a stone wall. On
the only vote taken, n motion designed
to overrule the decision of the Speaker
and diieet the eommitteo on foreign af
fair* to report without further delay flie
Cuban resolution parsed by the .Senate
at the last 6C3nion; the iiepublieauo
ntood solid und voted to sustain the
chair. 'J'L# p*Uer?#?. *t an yesterday/*
wero banked to the doors and there
?was considerable oxcitcmeut through
out the early part of the session wliei;
the members of the miuority wer<
successfully pressing all sorts of amend
moots bcosiug ou the Cubonquestioil
for tho purpose of embarrassing the
minority. V -
IJfiTii Dai. ?The Cuban debate waT
closed in the-Uouse. Heed and Bailey
exchanged their complimonts during
tho issuo of vorasity. Smith, of Michi
gan, backed tho speaker, whereupon
tho chair rested tho case. Mr. Bailey
thereupon appealed from tho decision
of tho chair, and Mr. Palzell moved to
lay tho appeal on the table. The roll
was called amid much oonfusion, but
party lines were unbrokeu aud by n
vote of 108 to 114, tho appeal was laid
on the table. Tho bill was then passed,
15S to Oij.
2Cnr Day. ? Thero was a protty par
liamentary struggle in tho House over
the bill for tho relief of the Book Pub
bulling Company of tho Methodist Epis
copal Church, South, which was before
tho House last Friday. By shrewd
manoeuvring its opponents succeeded
in staving off action. Previous to the
ronsideration of this bill tho House
rasped the bill to extend the public land
laws of the United States to tho Terri
tory of Alaska and to grant a geucral
railroad right of any way through the
torritory. The general rteneiency on>
was soot to tho conference after the
sili^r forces, with some aid, had suo>
ceeasd in concurring in the Senate
amendment striking from tho bill the
provision requiring the depositors of
bullion at government assay offices to
pay the cost of the transportation to the
mints.

JACKSON LIMBICS COTTON.
Committee Report of the Interstate Cotton
Growers' Association 09 thf Jackson
African Limbless Cotton, That Met
In Atlanta, Oft., Dec. 14, 1807.
We, the undersigned Committee, appointed
by the Interstate Cotton Qrowere' Association,
held lu Atlanta, Ga., December 14th, 1897, to
investigate and report on the Jackson Limbless
Cottooi beg lsavf to submit the following report:
A Iter a thorough and careful examination and
investigation made of the cottojj In the field,
which we vlsl(ed In person, and carefully looking
into tho matter, we unhesitatingly pronounce it
the best variety 6f cotton ever grown In the
South. From what the Committee learned from a
conversation with Mr. Jackson, h teems that
tho cotton, with careful cultivation, will yield
three bales per acre ?aally, and the evidence
or such fact has presented itself to us after said
investigation. The cotton itself Is absAlntely
without limbs, the bolls maturing on- little
prongs two or three indies long, known aa "fruit
spur, 'with noother ilmbekthere being from two
to 0 ve bolls on eaah spur. The stalks in the field,
examined by ns, are from four to ten feet tall,
accord. ng to the fertility of the soil', as fruited
from the grouad up. We fetindon a great many
stalks, bolls which contain five and six pods,
which we consider very unusual, fhe size of the
bolls being very flue average; the lint and staple
being fine and stlkr. au average jof one to ana
and a half inches It Is the opinion of your Com.
mlttee that no cotton of tbf 4. variety has ever
been grown In the South before, and is of aupe.
rior quality to anything we have ever seen
grown. The land upon which thecottoaexamin .
ed wax TTfiWff , irSTflthaFy red gravelly upland,
well manured. W* 1' OALHOTTN.Chalrman.Ua.
