' Wildman Is Still Missing.

*>; *' ________________
t
- The Charlotte Observer tells
the following good story of a recent
occurence in North Carolina :
"Mr. Jonathan Edwards, of
0*. Asheville, is a very successful
business man and an enthusiastic
sportman. He lately bought
for himself a new gun, and while
impatiently waiting for the season
to open he would get out his
new gun, handle it with affection
and discourse 011 its merits
and beauty until bis wife and
especially his fair daughter,
Mary, became weary of even the
subject of guns. And yet after
discovering that his gun was not
as interesting to others as to
himself, lie needed only an intimation
to make him bring it out
for exhibition with pleasure.
Mis9 Mary Edwards had a beau
and she rather liked liim, but
held him somewhat at arms'
length?on probation, as it were.
Miss Mary had a loving heart, a
sparkling eye and a keen sense
of humor. Her beau, Mr. Richard
Wildman, called to see her
and they chatted pleasantly in
the parlor while Mr. and Mrs.
Edwards made themselves comfortable
in the sitting room across
the hall.
i'T'm (fAimr f a Licw x-nil uni/1 I
X ... .v. ...^O .-??l
Mr. Wildman to Miss Mary.
"If you dare," said the young
lady, "I'll certainly make you
regret it."
"Hut I really am going to,"
said Mr. Wildman.
"If you do I'll go toll papa,"
said Miss Mary, with a twinkling
in her eye and without the slightest
attempt to get out of the way.
Taking her nonchalance for a
woman's consent, he grabbed and
kissed her. She promptly whacked
him on the cheek with her
hand, and then leaving the room
and walking across the hall, said
to her father, with the sweetest
- i* _ _ _ A . / T % T 1
oi sweei smiies: "i apa, i nave
been telling Mr. Wildman about
your new gun and he asks if you
won't show it to him."
"Certainly, with greatest pleasure,"
said Mr. Edwards, delighted
to have some one take an
interest in his new pet. Picking
up the gun he walked with expectant
pleasure into the parlor.
Mr. Wildman was waiting
somewhat doubting the girl's purpose.
When the man with the
gun came in the door Mr. Wildman's
doubts, accompanied by
Mr. Wildman himself, went out
the window without even taking
the precaution to raise thesash.
Mr. Edwards looked around at
his daughter dumb-founded. She
, , laughed till she could no longer
stand. Holding her heart in her
hands, she said: "Father, you
must be careful how you go at
people with that gun. lb-ally,
if I didn't know you well, 1
should have been sure several
times you meant to shoot me
with it. You must be more
careful. How am I ever to get
married if you run my beaux off
like that ? Take the horrid old

Miss Mary and her mothe
often talk, sotto voce,about gun;
and laugh to Mr. Edwards' dis
comfiture. Mr. Wildman is sti
missing.

The Old Brick Church.

The action of the late synod i
arranging for the celebration o
the centennial of our synod i]
1003 will bring prominentl,
before our people "The Ol 1 Brie
Church," where our synod wa
organized May 0, 1803.
The proper name of thechurc
is Ebenezer, but it is gcnerall
known by the Brick Church.
It is a brick building, as it
name implies, and is situated 1
miles west of Winnsboro, in Fail
[ field county, S. C.
It is on an eminence surroun
ded by a beautiful grove of hick
ory and oak trees, a few hue
dred yards from Ivincaid's bridg
i : * 41 - i?:
u\?'i .nunc ivivfr.
It is indeed a beautiful an
historic spot. The building is i
a good state of preservation an
service is liehl there every tw
weeks. For many years bel'oi
the civil war it was one of tli
most active and intluenti;
churches in the synod. Its pa
tors have been Rev. .las. Roger
Rev. James Royce, I). I)., an
Rev. C. I>. Rotts. The ravag<
of the war anions its people le
it almost disorganized, and in
few years it disappeared from tli
roll o! our churches. A hoot tli
year 1801 Key. A. (1. Kirkpntric
and his people of New Il<?j
began lo cultivate the Held, an
the result was that it was orgat
ized the second time August 21
1803, with 21 members. Sine
that time it has grown stendih
and is a power for good in tl
community. For some years Re'
A. G. Kirkpatrick has been it
paMor in connection with I'ro
perily, S. C., giving hall his tin
to each place.
The statistics for the year ju:
closed show 15 members, wit
elders and deacons, ten meinbei
of the Ladies' society, f>5 in tli
Sabbath school, paid $200 to pa
tor's salary and $2.5 to mission
The church and graveyard at
surrounded by a massive roc
wall, which will last as long ?
tin; world lasts. It is built <
blocks of granite laid in cemor
and is there to stnv. Kov. .Innit
Rogers and perhaps otln rs ol ot
! ministers sleep there.
This is all prelim i nary, ho we ve
to a war episode in connectio
with 1 ho old church, which I wis
to lay before your readers. Who
Sherman':* army passed fhrouj;
this country his soldiers tore t'i
hte floor and sleepers ol tli
church and with this materi:
they rebuilt the bridge over Litll
river, near by, which the ('01
federates on their retreat had d<
"I was nearly dead witii dyapepst
| tried, doctors, visited mineral sprinf
and grew worse. I used Kodol l?y
pepsia Cure. That cured me." It d

our stomach, heart burn and all forn
of dyspepsia. Crawford Bros, d-w

*- Change of Governors Gives Satis- Hoi
faction to All. ?
.
; Habanu, Dec. 21.? Maj (Jen.
i- Leonard Wood formally took
?i. _r.i - ? > < >
e vnarge ??i uitt governor general s
office ?t 9 o'clock this morning. pp
(j His first act was to accept ihe *u<
resignation of the members of the 'R
j members of the advisory cabinet Fll
1 of (veil. Brooke. These officials. np,
latter considering the question the
e overnight, fiad decided to insist '?,
16 upon retiring. Tlieir decision kin
'1' meets with public approval. Al-jtai
most without exception they had H
sJ rendered themselves particularly mo
d abnoxious to a majority of the ,,y
' J Oil
Cubans am
ft One prominent Cuban general | tjjf
;i! said today: "The only chance Oil
ie (ien. Brook's secretaries have, if a's?
tliev wish to rehabilitate them coi
, % , fvi'
^ selves in the eyes of their coun- jn>
trymen, is to resign and thus, for <2*
j a time, bring forgotfulness."
The same general, discussing 1
1- COI
r (ien. Brooke's farewell procla-l
' mation, said : "The proclamation
_ I IMf
was ill advised, Cuba is bound,!'j'"
in the course of time, with food no
1(3 and without war, to arrive Jat a {*!
v- state of comparative comfort. NoK'f
Is man has a right to regard himself co,
s- as the sole cause of such improve- ^ 10
mentfl. As a matter of fact, under {?,
(?en. Brooke's administration the Wl
sj military authorities frequently RI)
i. over rode the civil, and there is *ai
I 4S
less civil government now than n{,
before. As for the courts, they
10 .1 ' . ' of
are the same corrupt organiza- nn
tions and are virtually unchanged tin
' in any important particular. All t,y
this, in my opinion, most Cubans by
k will attribute to the bad advice
given Gen Brooke by his secre
,, of
d taries. t?,
it It is believed that no governor
vs will be appointed for Santiago Cc
irI department, but that an experiment
in civil government 011 a (U
r much broader scale than ever ben
: fore will be initiated there, Gov.
I I (Jen. Wood having supervision of
i , the experiment from Ilahana.
(Jen. Wood this afternoon vis.
I ited the prison and the penitcnj
tiurv and seemed much interested,
