GRATIFYING RESPONSES Have Been Received From Men of all Classes and There i* no Doubt of Hie Triumph and Success of the Great Kn- terpri.e. Tne interest that has been mani fested in the success of the South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian Exposition, to be held at Charleston next year, is most encouraging to tba projectors of that enterprise, and shows that ,tbe practical sympathy of many of the representative men engaged in commercial and industrial pursuits throughout the country wi'l be extended to the undertaking. Very gratifying responses have been received by the Exposition Company from those who have been elected Honorary Vice-Presidents, as the fol lowing iiuotations will show: Mr. Bright Williamson, president of the bunk of Darlington, S. C., writes: “I shall be glad to co operate with you and to do anything which is in my power to make the exposi tion a g r eat success; Mr. C. L. Snowdon, president of the Mononga- hela National Bank of Brownsville, i‘a., says: “I will most willingly contribute in any way 1 Cuii to ma the exposition a succes.*” Mr. . L. Patterson. Commissio -er of Agri culture and Imigration o' the North Carolina Department of Agricultur writes: ”1 unsure you of my wai and continued interest in the succes. of the exposition.

Huhnan, of Terre Haute, ludiaua, says: ‘‘J hope and trust that by the great enterprise and energy of tha citizens of Charleston, the exposi tion will be made a grand success;” and Mr. Prank H. Wyckoif, in ex pressing his appreciation of the honor conferred, adds : ‘T shall be glad to assist you, as far as it is i:i my power, in the great work yo i have undertaken.” Railioad men show strongsymi ft l l y with the work in hand, as the f - lowing quotations from letters on file will prove: Mr, J. W. Thomas, president of the Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Jjouis Railway : “I will take pleas ure in doing anything in my power to advance the interest of your exposi tion;” Mr H. Walters, president of the Atlantic Coast Line:‘‘I can as sure you, as you already know, of my deep interest in the success of this undertaking;” Mr. Samuel Spencer, president of the Southern Railway: ”1 shall watch its progress with much interest, and hope for its great success;” Mr. John B.

R. (j. Erwin, president of the Plant Railway System: ‘‘Permit me to thank you and through you the directors of the company for the honor conferred, which, I assure you, I very highly appreciate.” In the same spirit writes Mr. J. P. Killebrew, Immigration Agent of c Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Lo Railway: ‘T shall do ail in my power to aid in making the exposi tion a triumphant success;” vod Ex-Governor W. J. Northen, mana '• of the Georgia Immigru.ion m u Investment Bureau of Atlanta. Gu., writes: "It will be ray pleasure to aid the interests of the exposition in any way that I may be able.” A letter has been received from Mr, William A. Stone, president of the Stone-Ordean-Welis Company of importers and wholesale grocers, of Duluth, Minnesota, in which he says: “i shall take great pleasure in attending the exposition, and trust it will be a success;” Mr. George B Hill, of Pittsburg, Pa., writes: “J beg to assure you that I will do all in my power to furt r its interests, which appeal strongly to all well-wishers of Southern pros perity, of which number 1 count my self. With all good wishes for suc cess;” and Mr. I. G. I. Campbell writes from Nashotah, Wisconsin: “I shall he glad to do anything 1 can to aid you in your very large under taking. Call upon me if you think 1 can he of any servile to you.” The director of the Philadelphia Commercial Museum, Mr. William ”. Wilson, writes: “I have from l ie llrst taken a deep interest in the Charleston Exposition. J shall hold myself jn readiness to aid you in any possible way during the entire pro gress of your work.” Mr. John Gill, pres.dent of the Mercantile Trust Company of Balti more spys: ‘ I will do whatever is in my power to promote the success of the Exposition t” Mr. Ixxyd L. Jackson, president of the Merchants and Manufacturers’ Association of Bf Iti more, says; “J esteem it a great privilege to be afforded an op portunity to co-operate in any move ment looking to the development of the South;” and Ex-Governor Hugh H. Ihompsou, now Comptroller of the New York Insurance Company, says: “Assure the members of the Board of Directors of my readiness to do any thing In my power to advance the interests of the exposition, which trust and believe will prove of lasting benefit to Charleston.” In many cases, the editors of news papers, who have already expressed their sympathy with the work, in acknowledging the receipt of their Commissions as Honorary Vice- Fresidents of the Exposition Com pany, have taken the opportunity to reiterate their friendly offers of assis tance. For instance, Mr. J. II. Estill, of the Savannah News, de clares: •‘It will afford me pleasu 3 to do what I can to assist them in the great work which they have undertaken;” Mr. W. A. Hemphill, of the Atlanta Constitution, says: “I will do what I can to promote your exposition ;” Mr. W. A. Dods- worth, editor of the New York Jour nal of Cemmerce and Commercial Bulletin, says: ‘‘lean assure you of ray entire sympathy with the pur pose of your exposition and wish it wore possible for me to do as much for the promotion of its objects as I could desi 3.” So, too, writes Mr. Adolph S. Ochs, the editor of the New York Times: ‘‘I hope it may be in my power to contribute to the success of the great enterprise;” and Mr. J. W. Bailey, managing editor of the Philadelphia Record: ‘‘I am in full accord with the aims and purposes of the proposed exposition, and will endeavor to co operate with the management in its efforts to make the enterprise success fulMr. Felix Agnus, editor of The Baltimore American, says: ‘‘I will do all I can to advance the interes. and success of the proposed exposi tion;” and Mr. R. H. Edmonds, editor of the Manufacturers’ Record of Baltimore, says: “The best efforts of the Manufacturers’ Record are at your service for the futherance of the work of your exposition.” Mr. Richard J.athers writes from Haines Falls, New York: "I rejoice in your palriotic organism—a practi cal, and, I believe, a sure promise that Charleston will again come be fore the commercial world in the power of its well-built city, admirable location, as a central part and harbor on the Atlantic coast of our country, to again contract for its proper share of the c mmerce of the world as well as the outlet for the productions of the great West.” Nor have the prominent men of South Carolina been backward with their kind ?ords. The Governor of the Stat - * writes: "If lean contri bute in any way, either personally or officially, to the success of the Expo sition I will be glad to have you com mand me;” U. S. Senator John R. McLaurin says: ‘‘Yon may count on my interest and hearty co-opera tion in this great work. Charleston always makes a success of whatever she undertakes, and I have no fears about tho complete success of the exposition. 1 will stand ready at all times lo co-operate with you in any way 1 can and await your com mands;” Stale Senator D. 8. Hen derson writes: “1 will do all lean to further the good objects of the exposition;” and the lion. A. C. Latimer, Representative in Congress, says: “It will afford me pleasure at any time in the future to join in any plans you may adopt for the success of this enterprise;” and tha Hon. Stanyarne Wilson, Represntative in Congress, says: “J shall take pleasure in contributing to the extent of my power to the success of the exposition.” In the same spirit writes the Mayor of Charleston : “I shall be glad to aid your company in any way in my power towards a con- tummation so devoutly to be wished.” The presidents of the two State colleges both express themselves in a like encouraging way. Prof. D B. Johnson, president of the Winthrop Normal and Industrial College of South C rolina says: “You shall have my interest and co-operation in the g.eat work which you have undertaken,” and Dr. Henry S. Hartzog, president of Clemson Col lege, says: “I assure you I am ready to serve you in every way that I can to further the interests of the exposition.” L. M. Crist Sons, the editors of the Yorkville Enquirer, of YorkvilJe, S. C., in a letter just received at the exposition office, express themselves in the following hearty manner: “Recognizing ftom the first broach ing of the great advantage that the State at large would get from the exposition, provided it should prove successful, we set out in our humble wt-y to give all the assistance in our power We have endorsed the ex position editorially and have tried to snow how legislative aid will be war rant d from a strictly business stand point. We believe the greater the . access of the exhibition, the greater the benefit to Charleston, and the greater the benefit to Charleston the greater the benefit to the State at large.’ It will thus be seen that the in terest in the exposition project is unlvere .1 and not confined to any one class. These expressions of good will come from bankers, railway men, men engaged in every form of commerce government officials, editors, s: lators and college presi dents, t r with such hearty co-oper ation there can be little doubt of the final and «iiumphaut success of the great enterprise.

Crocker will learn with deep sympathy of the sore be reavement that has fallen upon him. His beloved wife on the morning of Sept, loth entered into the everlast ing rest prepared for the people of God. Only a few brief months ago she left tier native land to bear the glad tidings of salvation to Chinese women. Her beautiful life of devo tion to her father in the home of her girlhood is known to those who loved her in tho “happy days gone by.” In her bright young womanhood she gave her hand to one who had won her heart. She rejoiced that God hud called her to go with him “far hence to the Gentiles” and he be lieved that God had led him to her end given her to him as the sharer of his joys and sorrows. Soon after they reached Chinkiang, China, Mr. Crocker was stricken with fever. Among strangers, in a heathen land, Mrs. Crocker’s strength of character bore her nobly through this trying ordeal. With unflagging courage and steadfast cheerfulness, she watch ed beside her husband’s sick bed un til her loving care was rewarded by bis convalescence. Early in tho present year, Mr. Crocker was asked to take charge of the Yangchow station during the ab sence of Mr. Pierce in America. Mrs Crocker, although she had been much hindered in the study of the language, nevertheless undertook, with the aid of a Chinese woman, to carry on the work among the women. On looking over her hymn book the writer was surprised to find that, by using a Romanized system, she had been teaching Chinese women losing hymns. Much more surprise was felt when it came out incidentally that the Chinese characters on the back of the book indicating its title, as well as her own name, had been written by herself and written with such grace and ease that it was sup posed to have been done by an ac complished Chinese teacher. When the troubles in north China assumed most alarming aspects, Mr. and Mrs. Crocker, obeying the con sul’s injunctions, went to Shanghai as a place of safety. That city was filled with wild rumors and it seemed by no means certain that there would not be an uprising that would rival in its horrors the awful scenes being enacted all over north China and even in parts of central China. A physician advised Mr. Crocker to take his wife to Japan. Her health improved rapidly under the change and six happy weeks flew by in Fukuoka, By the kind assistance of missionary friends Mr. and Mrs. CrDcker obtained a cozy Japanese house and the novelty of the sur roundings and the sense of home made any small discomforts easily bearable. Amid beautiful scenery and an in teresting people, Mrs. Crocker’s last days were passed. Her friends will rejoice to knowj that hers was an ideally happy marriage. The inno cent joy of her heart often bubbled over during those last days in happy laughter. The day before her illness seemed one of unclouded sunshine. She was sweet and gentle and loving, as it was her nature to be. Late in the afternoon she was putting the finishing touches upon a dainty little cap that tier skilful fingers had fash ioned Jong before. There was a cheer ful serenity about her that it is pleasant to remember. After supper sbe went out, us she often did, with her husband for a walk. That night she read to him from the Bible. About half past one o’c'ock she woke him, saying that she had not slept and did not feel well. The doctor was sent for and arrived in about ur. hour. Mrs. Crocker, with her ac customed thoughtfulness, showed her attendants where everything needed was to be found. All seemed to go well and no alarm was felt, even at dinner that day, when it was reported that she was suffering from headache. An hour later she was in convulsions. Two skillful physicians did all that human power could ac complish but about three o’clock a. in. the Lord took His faithful ser vant to her heavenly home. A peaceful serenity rested upon her countenance and she lay as if in quiet sleep The funeral took place on Sunday morning and was conducted by Rev. T. C. Britton, of Soochow, China. He read many comforting passages of scripture and the hymns were sweet and appropriate. There were present Americans, English, Japa nese and Chinese. We laid her to rest in a sweet and quiet spot, where waving pines chant a low requiem. ‘‘Asleep In Jesus! far from thee Thy kladmt mid their graves may be; Hut thine is still a blessed sleep From which none ever wake to weep.” In looking back upon her life and thinking of her character, the writer is struck with her absolute sincerity —what sbe appeared to be, she was. Her devotion to duty was ingrained. On the last evening of her life she said, “If there should be only a patched-up peace and, if afterwards, it would be at the certain risk of our lives that we should returu to our posts, ought we to go?” The reply was that each one would have to set tle that question for himself. She replied that she thought it would be our duty to go. On another occa sion she had said that, when in Yang chow one night she heard a great noise on the street and realized that -she and her husband were in the midst of thousands who could take their lives, that only God could pro tect them. She realized tho dan ger but faith gave her courage and enabled her to triumph over fear. She has fallen asleep and we sor row not as those who liava no hope. “For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also that are fallen asleep in Jesus will God bring with him. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” A Fbiknd. 1'<> pure u L«bl In Oue Day Take Laxative Bromo-^uinino Tab lets. All druggists refund the money if it fails to cure. E. W.
