Elgin Dots. ICorrespondence o* Thfe Ledger.) Elgin, Dec. 6.—The bad weather has set in before the people of this section got through sowing their small grain. There is more of it be ing sown in this neighborhood this fall than usual. Your correspondent has sown 38 bushels of oats and used 480 bushels of cotton seed. Our people say they cannot raise cotton at 5 cents, but I fear they will forget that before next spring. Last spring as the farmers were run ning to town buying fine mules on time and hauling oil loads of guano and rations, you could hear them singing. “Come thy fount of every blessing,’’ bub this fall as they were hauling in their little crops of 5 cent cotton and driving in tbeir poor mules and cows to pay up their liens, you could hear them singing, “Show pity Loid, Oh Lord forgive.” Now bovs don’t let us repeat these hymns again next year, but let us work our old scrub mules and raise our own hog and hominy. Mr. A. T. Furgerson, of Waxhaw, has bought the Win. Ganson farm and is moving to Eigin. Mr. Fur gerson is a rattling good farmer and we an. proud to welcome him as our own t'oor neighbor; he is one of your hog and hoimny farmers. He run a 5-horse farm ib<s year and made 800' bushels of corn and GO bales of 5 cent co 1 ton. Mr. W. R. Harris has bought the McDow farm two miles south of Elgin an 1 is building a handsome .little cottage. We are sorry to loose Mr. Harris as h neighbor. Mrs. I. W. Moore has been confined .to her l>ed for the last six wee>k#< but we are pro id bo say that she Is' im proving. 8he has been sitting up a little for the last few days. The . Rov. George 0. Leonard preached hii farewell sermon at 8t, Luke church last p. tn., text 10th chapter and 1st verse of Romans, from which ho preached An eloquent sermon. I. \V. Moore is tearing down his cotton platform and diverting it into a smoke house. He says there is more good living in u smoked houee than there is on a 5 cent cotton plat form; he has seven nice hogs to kill. He ssys lull Flaw to bring his little pickers over Christmas and help him pick backbones and spare ribs and “sausages.” Elgin Movement. •ftell Etchings. (Correapondenc* of Tha Lodger.)

The South Carolina Baptist State Convention, held at Rock Hill, Nov. 80th to Die. 4th, 1897, was indeed a grand body of men who represented 90,000 Baptists. They were men of gigantic mind, all striving great tilings for the Master. The conven tion, unusually largo, was entertained in princely style by the good people of Rock Hill who claimed to be Bap tists as long as they could “entertain angels unaviart.s” and show by sweet attentions that all God’s heritage was one in Christ Jesus. We heard some line speeches on important work. They were marked by burning elo quence and crovned with brotherly love and obeisance to the greater number. No begging for pet objects intruded, hence, those afraid of mon etary scare-crows were not annoyed. The subjects for prayer an’d work were many. Foreign, Home, and State Missions loomed up as lofty mountains, but were scaled by Dr. R. J. Willingham, a native Souta Caro lina giant of whom we are not afraid, but dearly love, Dr. J. T. Tichuor, of Atlanta, a good man and full of good work, and our illimitable Dr. L. M. Bailey, who has planted in every destitute country town an attractive Baptist church. Furman University was ably repre sented by her president, A. P. Monta gue, whose oratory is so classic and sublime that in imagination we were within the walls of the Parthenon listening to the words of ancient Greece. The Theological Seminary in Louis ville had a grand champion, Prof. W. J. McGlothlin, whose exquisite flow of language enwrapped his audience and caused no little pride to well up for our young hero so versed in pleat- ant love. Education in every phase was masterly handled by gifted men. and let me add, that our beloved Carlisle, the property of all Christian hearts, and his grand Wafford were brought to notice for honor aud ven- errtion by Baptist friends. Our Connie Maxwell Orphanage, the happy retreat of 107 bereaved lit tle ‘lambs,” was tenderly mentioned as the “Father’s House” where lit restles those whom He has promised hevtr lo forget or fvrsake. The Bible need, With its cheap pub lication in every tongue and its glori ous fruitage, made a pathetic appeal to approciative hearts. Woman’s Work received worthy commendation. Thousands of dollars the sisters have consecrated by self-denial, prayer and loving to the heathen and to other noble work .during the conventional yeur. I cannot hide away my colored brother, Rev. R. C. Carroll, in his quiet, modest niche. He appeared before the convention in his Master’s garb—humility. His speech was pertinent and this quotation, “All men are boin <qual, but equality ends at birth,” brought him great ap plause. The purpose of his presence was to beg the people of his South Carolina help in some cherished plan to help uplift his race to purity and nobility of life. The relief of aged ministers was urged by an earnest speaker, and heartily would all respond to the need of the dear old Simeons who have ministered unto us in holy things and held in loving arms to our gaze his Master, even Christ Jesus. The convention with solemn deci sion urged strong resolutions favoring prohibition and the cry is, that legis lature will heed and give us nkugkt but prohibition. The convention was tendered a re ception at Winthrop Normal and In dustrial College. Tho concert, was artistic and full of sweet music, also the banquet would have done honor roUnterpe and the god of mirth and joy.''

The Noted Novelist Doesn’t Do Ills Best Hero Justice. When Authony Hopo ended his first reading in America, in Brooklyn, tho other night, ho had created ouo mild sensation ho evidently did not count on. It camo when ho began to read a chap ter from his most famous romance, “Tho Prisoner of Zenda.” A distinct gasp of astonishment and mild disap proval went up toward tho chandelier overhead when ho called his heroine, not “Flah-via, ” as wo are wont to pro nounce it,but “Flavin, ” with the long u. There was scarcely one of his auditors' on that occasion who escaped two sensa tions. Tho first was on his entrance from the doorway in tho rear of tho stage when he came forward toward tho table in the center holding four volumes in his hand. Ko walked as if he was en tering a drawing room where sonio one was playing soft music aud not at all as it he was about to make a first impres sion on the readers of a nation of 70,• 000,000 people. The interviewers had given the im pression that Anthony Hope resembled his most lovable young hero. But it was a middle agod, sharp featured man upon whom their eyes rested, with only his British clothes to mark him for an Englishman. * While the chairman was making a little speech of introduction the author- reader sat with his legs crossed, holding his chin in tho palm of his hand and smoothing his cheek with a sleudei forefinger, surveying his first American audience with a delightfully disinter ested nir. He was attired in convention al evening dross, with the familial square cut, open collar, and wore a brilliant red carnation in the lapel of his coat. If his audience had any misgivings as to his ability to please them, they vanished at the first sound of his voice —clear, soft and with the quality that carries. His are not the methods of the professional elocutionist He rarely ges ticulates, usually standing either with arm behind his back or with his right forearm resting on the upper edge of the reading desk, grasping it with hif right hand. Toward the end of the read ing he rested his volume on tho uppci edge of the desk, as if to see more clearly. The stronger emotions of the final leave taking between Rudolf Rassendyl and the Princess Flavia affected him, and ho knew it, for he read the chap ter “If Love Were All” in a dull mono tone that gave every evidence of self re pression. This was the only note of disappoint ment And it was summed up by a girl in the audience, who declared audibly that “Sotbern ought to give him a per formance of ’The Prisoner of Zrnda, ‘ so ho might hear him do that scene.” He was at his best in the crisp humor of the Dolly Dialogues. And, after all, he was Authony Hope reading Anthony Hope’s stories.—New York Preaa.

Renders of tho "Arnbinn Nights” are familiar with the manner in which the cadis dispensed justice with more regaid to equity than to law, aud it seems that instances of tho same kind are of modern occurrence. An example is given in Golden Days: Not long ago u Turk, while repairing a roof, fell into the street upon a wealthy old man, who was killed, •without any serious damage to the workman. Tho sou of tho deceased caused the workman to bo arrested aud taken before the cadi, with whom he nsed nil his iufiuenco to have the poor man condemned, and, though tho inno cence of tho laborer was clearly estab lished, nothing could pacify the sen but the law of retaliation. Tho cadi stroked his beard and then gravely decreed that tho workman should be placed exactly upon the spot where the old man had stood. “Now,” said he to tho son, “you will go on tho roof of tho house, fall down upon this man aud kill him if you can. ” Of course tho sou declined to do any thing of the uirt, and the caso was dis missed. Fog and Gaeli-ht. According to the statement of Pro fessor Lewes, n London fog deprives coal gas of 11.1 per cent of its illuminating power, but this is not so astonishing as is tho fact that, under similar circum stances, the searching light of an in candescent burner loses as moch as 20.8 of its efficacy. The reason given by Pro fessor Lewes for this phenomenon h that the spectrum of both the incandes cent and. the electric light approaches very nearly that of tho solar spectrum, being very rich in the violet and ultra violet rays. It is precisely these rays which cannot make tbeir way through a London fcg. To this is attributed the fact that the sun locks red on a foggy day. Tho violet rays are absorbed by the solid particles floating in the aque ous vapor of the atmosphere, and only the red portions of the spectrum get through. The interesting additional statement is made in this connection that the old nrgand burner is much more saecessfnl in resisting a London fog than any of its later rivals. Free Pills.

The lawyers bad badgered the juror Dearly to death with questions when tho judge finally took him in hand. “You say you never heard of this case,” said tuo judge. • “Nary n word of it, judge, till I came Into the courtroom, ” was the reply, “And you don’t know either tho plaintiff or the defendant?” “Never see either of ’em aforo today. *’ “Do you know either of tho attor neys?” “Thank heaven, no.’’ “Then I should think you ought to bo able to give a fair aud impartial hearing to tho evidence and render a verdict in ac cordance with it without fear or favor. ’ ’ “Judge, as things stand now I kin do that very same thing, hut I'm afeard of what may happen.” “What can happen that will affect your judgment:” “Well, judge,” explained the juror, turning to tho court somewhat confiden tially, “if the lawyers behave them selves, I’ll bo a craokerjack juror, but it’s my experience in these here oases that one or tho other of ’em usually works in some smart tricks that makes me so hoppin mad all the way through that it warps my jedgmuut, an then it jest comes natural for mo to watch out for a good chance to give him the worst of it, an I ain’t no kind of a juror to sit in that case.
