A Gratul ltcoepilon. Lost evening thoro was a grand ro coptlon given in honor of Boyd's Mod ern Mlnistrels by tho different orders of our city. Grand, becauso it roprc sontod Odd Follows, Masons, K. of P., Elks and Forrostors, each vlolng with tho other from tho fact that there is in the company 8 Masons, 14 Ola Fol lows, and as many K. of P., Elks and Foresters as thoro Is of most of tho other secret societies, and on tho wholo it seems as if thoro wus a grand union among thorn, so much so that they will always bo romombered here as a com pany of one grand brotherhood, and ono organization on tho road which presents not only grand ontortain monts, but probably contains more members connoctod with tho many dif ferent soolotles than any other. As to their rolatlvo merit, wo would say that tho company was a strong ono from start to finish?aud the long gusts of laughter could demonstrate one fact only; they camo to plouso and succeed ed, and our best wishes go with them to our sister cities.?Phila. Enquirer. Boyd's Modern Minstrels will bo at tho Opera Houso Wednesday night, November 28th, inst. A Mystery. On Friday while a car of cotton seed was being unleaded at tho Greonvillo & Laurons depot hero a mysterious find was made. It was tho loft oar of a human bolng. From tho long black hair growing upon Its lobo it belongs to a whlto person, whether man or wo man Is a subject of conjecture. Tho size, indicates that It is tho car of a woman, but it is argued that no woman allows tho hair about her oars to grow so long. Cortainly no negro has long blackball* growing upon his oars. This member was apparently clipped from somebody's head by a man who know his business. It was cut cloanly and clearly. It ovidontly grew on somebody's head. From its appear anco it grow on the head of a white man or woman. Tho question is, how did it como to bo severed from tho head to which It originally belonged. People in this country do not cut off" tho cars of other people without remarkablo provocation. Therefore it is fair to Bupposo that thoro is a tragic history connected with this oar, whether It bo longod to man or woman. Tho car In which It was found was shipped by Cralg Bros, from Ora, Lau rons county. Maybe somebody In that county can toll us why tho oar was severed from tho hoad to which it be longed and how it camo to bo an unex pected part of a load of cotton seed. It camo from somobody's hoad boyond doubt. Whether that somebody was alive or doad, whlto or black, male or female is a matter of speculation. The solution of tho mystery Is betwoon bore and Ora. Doctors who have soon tho member bollovo it camo from tho hoad of a whlto man and was cut away by a skilled hand.?Greonvillo News.

Resolu tions of thanks were offered for tho hospitality of tho citizens, to tho Rail roads and to Mr. J. T. Harris, of Harris Lithia. Laurons will over bo thankful to Rev. W. I.

And as tho delegates go homo after their arduous work, may each lind all well and "his houso In order," and overy mlnlstor with tho exact appointment, his pleasant dreams had brought to his hopes. A sad accident occurred In tho city on Ssturday last. It was tho habit of Mr. Joseph H. Harris, who is onguged in peddling, on his return homo to take tho cartridges from a pistol and givo it to a littlo son to play with. His sister, aged about fourteen In tho ab sonco of tho fathor snapped tho pistol, when tho llttlo follow remarked: "Shoot mo, sistor," and pointing tho pletol ut him, it was discharged inno cently, a 32 calibre missile taking of foct below the oyo. His rocovory Is problematical, bilt wo hopo for a favor able result.

E Church, South, as previously announced convened in this city in an nual boeslon on Wednesday last at 9:30 A. M. in the ample Court Room of tho County Court House. Tho attendance was very full, composed of tho minis tern of the Church, lay dologatOs and tho Bishop. Uishop Keonor,. tho senior Bishop of tho Southern Church, held tho gavol and presided over tho del lb orations of tho body. It is useless to say and we could not omphasl/.o kuWo iontly that the body was composed of delegates of great power and contained many men of unusual strongth and ubllity. Wo rogrot that our space Is inadequate to give to our readors moro than a skeleton or baro abstract of the procoedlnge,~whlch woro varied and of oxceodlng Interest to the lay roador or ordinary spectator. Again, wo can only mention by the way how vory greatly our people of all denominations and shades enjoyed tho social features attondlng the presence of the repre sentatives of this great branch of tho church of the Master in our llttlo city. Tho occasion will constitute an epoch in Lau rens and wowillllvo tohopo that in years to cOmo and that not too long, wo may have this ? groat honor and pleasure again. Bishop Keenor lives in New OrloanB, and is now advanced in years; but Is well preserved, vigorous In Intellect, presides with grace and dignity and is full of power and brightness and is a personality that cannot bo forgotton. Bishop Wallace Duncan, ono of tho junior Bishops of our own Stato, of whom wo may woll bo proud for his many gracos and accomplishments, was present during the sossion and oc cupied a seat with tho Presiding Bishop. Ho was here as tho chairman of tho Board of Trustees of WoiTord Collogo, tho leading literary Institution in tho Stato under tho supervision of the Conforonco." Rov. Char los B. Smith was elected Financial Agent of this Institution an important position form erly hold by his distinguished brother, A. Coke Smith, now of Norfolk, Vn. Conference was addressed by tho Pres ident of Randolph Macon College, Dr. W. W. Smith, of Virginia, upon the educational work and interests of tho church, South, and whilo full of statis tical information, his address was so eloquently and gracefully delivered us t? dollght and captivate tho great audience. Rov. J. Walter Daniel, a native- tft Laurens, 'delivered In tho Methodist church, tho address boforo tho Histor ical Society, which met with great ap plause, and did tho spoaker much honor. Tho fact that wo could claim him as to tho manor born, added to tho zest which tho homo portion of tho largo audience took in tho occasion. Dr. J. D. Barboo, of Nashville, Ten nessee, was a prominent figure of the occasion, and delivered addresses, not ably in tho Presbyterian church upon tho subjoct of church oxtonslon. Ono of tho beautiful incidonts oc curred on Wodnesday, when Bishop Duncan exhibited a handsome gavel presented to him by Conforonco four years ago. It represents ''Exohnnge of two worlds" consists of an exquisite contro polished ivory piece, pierced by tho handlo of wood, tho ivory pieco in tho form of a biblo, at either ond a sli ver globo of about ono Inch in diame ter; each separate part inlaid with gold with distinctive und appropriate inscriptions, "Rule In tho foar of God;" "Tho world is my parish," understood to bo from Wosloy; "Heaven is my aim to roach," also probably from Wesloy. Tho bundle, composed of wood, was obtained in London from a table used by John Wesloy. Hero there was pleasant badinugo when Bishop Keener hold up a plain uuornamontod gavol, which lie explained had boon wielded by his distinguished predeces sors, Pierce, McTeer and others groat in tho church in times past. With much pleasantry ho said Bishop Dun can's was too fine and didn't havo much "Methodism" in It. Ono of tho delightful features of the occasion, to our own pooplo was, as it woro, tho bringing back to us in ro union many sons of Laurens, and from all parts of our county, who in yoars gono by and later, havo given their livos to tho service Of the Master, their zeal and their best devotion, loavlng bohlnd their natlvo hills and stroams and Holds and tho pleasant faces of pa rents, sisters and friends; Again, it was, a dolight to greet those, who, though not born among us, had dwolt and labored hero, had ondearod thom solves by sharing our joys and sorrows, and thus had made themselves and theirs of our homes und hoarts. Tho churches in tho city and sovoral In the country wore filled by visiting ministers on Sabbath last. Bishop Keonor preached at 11 A. M. In tho beautiful Presbyterian Church to a packed audience from 1st verso, St. John, 21at chapter; Tho power of God In Nature. It was a masterly discussion of tho toxt and greatly onjoyod. After tho sermon a olass of twonty-ono men ordained to the offico of Deacon, tho B^hop administering tho ceremony with laying on of hands. An orphan ago to bo known as Epworth Orphan age of tho S. C.
