Estee, of California,: Made Permanent Chairman Last Night-A Itow over Mahone and Wise Delegates. [Special to The Herald and News.] CHICAGO June 20.-At the day ses sion of the Republican Convention the report :of the conlnuittecon permanent organization was adopted, making Estee,',of California, permanent Chair man. The order of business tinallV decided upon was, first, the report of committee on credentials;second, the report of committee o1 permanent or ganization ; third, appointment of National Committee ; fourth, nomina tions for President and Vice-President. The most significant change in the change in the r-ules is a provision for the aplpointnment by the National Com mittee of an Executive Committee of T1he conlveutionl reass'(bebl at 8.1.5 Wellington, of Maryland, offered a resolutioni of sympathy with Ger many, which wa referred.

South Carolina, Mississippi and Dakota, recommend seating the Mahone delegation. At 9.40 the report of credentials com mittee was adopted, except as to Air * gimia. The dliscussion on1 Virginia contest was still in progress at 10.40) p. m. ITTLE UIILLY MAHONE UsES HIS5 FIsT. A free fight occurred in the proceed ings of the committee on credentials between the rival Virginia delegations. While Allen, a Mahone delegate, was talking, Bradley and Wise frequently interrupted him. Mahone and Wise were sitting not miore than five feet __* apart on the same side of the table. Wise said something in an undertone to Mahone, which no one caught, but Mahone at once jumped up and reached for Wise. The latter let out for Mahone but members sitting between them pre vented any damage. Both were talk ing excitedly, but attention was for a moment directed from them by'Con gressman Libby,one of the anti-Mahone men, who struck at Allen. Accounts differ, but most of the members seemed to think that Allen was hit. He was still on his feet and Libby was cursmng Allen, who struck back. Great confusion prevailed as several of the Mahone people went for Libby and bore him to the fioor. All colored men in the room took part and the mass of arms and legs in motion was such that. the peacemaking members hardly dared to approach. Ex-Congressmarn t Bradley, who is himself pugnacious, was one of the WVise following for whom the Maihone henchmen seemed to feel the greatest animosity. "Not letlBradley get any,"yelled avoice that sounded like Mahone's; and a rush was at once made for him. A pair of Western men at once closed in and saved .Bradley from much harm. The peace-makers finally suceed(ed in pulling most-of the fighters apart, but it was not until the policeman at the door, who rushed in, had cracked several colored heads with his club. One man, said to be named Motte, was es pecially ugly and could not be quieted till sergeant at-arms Smith seized him by the coat exclaiming, "Stop! stop!" anmd threw him half across the room. When a semxblanice of order was re stored, two or three members were standinxg on a table and the policeman and the sergeant-at-arms had sqluads of the belligerents under their care, wvhile C'hairmian Hepburne was keeping a c lose eye on Mahone and WVise. The~eommittee finally decided to admit the Mahone delegation to the convenitionl. The Shermanix men are conisequen tly elated. %.uizzing Blaine. CotUMmlIA, June 20.-A London dis patch says that James G. Blaine in an interview at New Castle to-day declined to state whether or not he would accept a.nmination f.w President. Commencement at Newberry College. 2 Commencement at Newberry College began on Sunday, 17th June. r''he grad 1 uating class in the college this year. numbers six. Two young men, Mr. M. 1 J. Epting and Mr. H. F. Shealy are graduated in the Theological Semu-r.I3 As is usual quite a number of visi tors were present and the opera house, in which the exercises were held, was filled at all the services. BACCALArREATE SERMON The baccalaureate sermon was, preached on Sunday morning by Rev. It. C. Holland, of Virginia. The altar services were conducted by RevsAW. C. Sehaeffer, C. A. Marks, J. Hawkins, D. 1)., and J. S. Cozby. The text was from Matthew20: 26-28. "Who-! soever will be great among you, let hint be your minister ; and whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant "Even as the Son of Man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister and to give his life a ransom for many." The subject of the discourse was, "True Greatness Illustrated in the Pur pose and Life of Christ." Rev. Mr. Holland said : " The Roman pretor asked what is truth? but unprepared for the answer ad journed the court. What is truth in iife and what is true manly worth has bet the question of the ages. Oc cas:unoally from out the night there would arise a seer or a star heralding the coming morn, but the shadow still lingered over the horizon and human ity continued to ask what is true hu Ian ;u'reatness. But this deep sigh of the race after the "true, the beautiful and tie good," found a divine answer. The "coming one" conies. The sun of righteousness rises with healing in his Winga and interprets to humanity its proper self and solves the riddle of the age.. It is the Son of Man who is him scif "the way the truth and the life," and by word and example gives answer once f,r all in our text. T his is an ad vanced lesson in human greatness. It conitradicted the notions of the dis ciples. It is a iesson which humanity in the mass has not yet learned. Bnt there is progress in this direction and with the steady march forward in science, doctrine, morals, we shall be astonished at our former blindness. A few centuries ago the doctrine "might is right" mouldled the intercourse of nations. "The divine right of kings" was but recently the accepted theory of Europe. But the current of humanity's life is leaving these behind as driftwood. Human greatness was the synonym of personal strength and physical power. Rome which gave law to the nations and made heroes of men gave the su preme dignity to physical prowess and named it virtue. Intellectual prowess bids for homage. Achievement in the domain of thought wins the world's applause. This age presses hard upon our own day. We are not yet emancipated from the era of mind dominion. But this is not the goal of hu:uan greatness. The truth of our text presses hard upon the consideration of thinking men and women. We are pressing upon that era when greatness shall be of the heart. When he whose heart goes out in helpful benevolence towards his fellowman shall be great. Goodness is greatness. He who serves is great. The devotees of science and art move in a circle too limited. They may be learned, but never truly great. All the nobleness of the world lies in sacrifice. The grand mission of man is to serve mankind. This lesson in higher culture is given by the Son of M1an. It is the loveliest pattern of a noble life. From him who above all others is capable to discriminate. It is a reiiection upon our moral nature that it moves so slowly toward perfection. Truth is eternal and tho' it may slum ber for ages, it retains the vigor of youth and the energy of divinity. All truth is old, yet in t.he experience of the race it may be new. The human race is to experience a regeneration as to the true law of hu manity, and the true standard of cul ture and nobility shall be the law enacted by the great, teacher: Goodness is greatness. Christ came in pursuance of a pur pose-a life purpose-to give his life a ransom for many, the consummation of the most honorable life. He went about doing good-the memorial of a perfect life. This is the heavenly stan dard; Christ is the wvorld's indispensa ble all. Without controversy the Christian is the highest style of man. In the ordinary current of thought the heart has beeni dethroned, but the knowledge which transcends all others is heart knowledge. It wins the high est encomiiums. If you would be truly great, learn of Christ. M1ankind is no blest in sacrifice. The sunm total of the divine attributes and powers of a manly life is love." It would be impossible to do full jus tice to the sermon in any abstract of it. The warning was given the graduating class to follow the example and rule of Christ taught in the text, and his life as the greatest of greatness. As the sum total and essence of advanced thought and all that makes life worth living. He is a factor in the world who helps others by tihe blamelessness of his owvn life. There are great problems for this age to solve and they are pressing hard upon us-the great labor question and thatstilgreater question of temperance. No philanthropist can hold an mndiffer ent attitude. Would you be great in the regard of heaven? Let the word and spirit of Christ dwell in you richly. Would you be great in the impartial udgment of your own conscience. Let your purpose be one that magnifies the self into a mighty force for the service of others. Would you be esteemed great by the enlightened sentiment of mankind. Those lives are held noblest which lay hold on the future and actualize in the present that which shall be; those that anticipate the true and set it against the present error. It requires no moral courage to conform to existing custom. To live in advance of one's time is to antagonize the taste of men and seem ingly to fail of appreciation. But the applause of a better age is the proper applause of greatness. Hold aloft the banner of gospel truth, hold forth the Christ life as the law and pattern of excellence in human character and go forward anticipating a coming victory. TIIEOL,oGICAL SEMINARY. The sermon'in the afternoon before the students of the Theological Semi nary was preached by Rev. H. b. WAingard, of Georgia. His text was taken fronm 2 Cor. .5:20. "Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: We pray ye in Christ's stead be ye reconciled to God." The altar service wvas conducted by Rev. J. Austin. IMr. Wingard said the world through sint is at enmity against God. The triune God is very desirous of our reconcilia tion to Him and in- exceeding great love p)repared and executed the plan of redemption revealed in His word. He sent his son who knew no sin to pur chase for us salvation by his b)lood bought redemption. The redemption is comlete. The doors of heaven, closed b thec fall against man are throwna open to every repentting son of Adam. Havin ig given the wvord of 1reconciliation he appointed men as his am inbassadlors charged wvith the ministry of reconciliation, who, in Christ's stead, are to go in all the wvorld and p)roclaimf pec od will to .men. To this portanto work the minister of the gospel is called. It is an office high and holy, full of honor and dignity with its correspond Iing responsibilities. The preacher then defined the office of anmbassador as one of highest honor and dignity as applied to the governments )this world. What then must be the ugh dignity of the ministerial office to which God the great King and Head of he church, and over all,has called men mnd commissioned them to be his am yassadors. How wonderful the conde icension of God that he will become :o-worker together with man. The nessage which the minister of God )rings is God's own message, and ;hough it falls from human lips, it omes with all the sanction of the Aternal throne. In the name of him who sitteth thereon,and by his authori :y, the ambassador of God administers :he affairs of his church, .and in (od's tead he proclaims to rebellious man the mnesty of the Gospel. Let us inquire nore particularly into this message. "(o preach the preaching that I bid ;hee preach. Beseech men to be recon iled to God. His will is already re -ealed. The message laid down in the written word is the one the ambassa lors are to bring. Along with the :errible den --iations of the law they nust also tea. . .hat it is a faithful say ng and worthy of all acception that Jesus Christ caie into the world to ave sinners. His word is their text >ook. In a vord they are men of but me book. What they have to procain s written there. The confessions of the hurch while based on the word of God ire not the word. Above theauthority )f any great man, or the agreement of earned mien, stands the authority or ;oi's word. It is the only judge, rule mia guide by which as by a Lydian ;tone all teachers and doctrines are to :x tried, whether they be pious or imn )ious, true or false. The end of the delivery of this ines sage is the reconciliation of men to God. ro all the ends of the earth they are to sav in the name of God cone and he "e saved,and at the sane time proclaim Jesus Christ as the only saviour of men. rhis is an important message God has intrusted to his alimbassadors. It is a >pecial message from the King of Kings ud Lord of Lords. How should this message be deliver d? As though God did beseech you in Christ's stead. With what earnestness should men preach. You should under stand the earnestness of him who all bhe day long cries after his rebellious people. Go to the cross, see the willing suferer hanging on the tree: mark every cry and every groan ; see the glorious head bowed in death for man's redemption, and say was he not in earnest, inensely in earnest, when he came to save his poor lost creature,wnan. In his stead you preach as though God did beseech you. What love should you exhibit. "How infinite the love of him who gave himself for our redemp tion. In pleading with menu rememier you bring them the only remedy. Y ou see bere the importance of your mission. The law's death warrant against all sinners is already signed. You bring them the only hope of escape. What a task, what a work in Christ's stead to beseech men to come to him. Some,like Jonah turn aside, others like Elijah feel as if they alone are on the Lord's side. In times when men's heart's seem so hard that you can only weep as the saviour did, do not forget who has sent you. This synopsis of this able sermon does not do the speaker justice. It was well delivered, and highly spoken of by all who heard it. ADDRESS BEFORE sTUI)ENTS. At night the address to the students was delvered by Rev J. T. Chalmers, of Winnsboro. His subject was thme Perfection of Character, the Goal of Life. It was one of the finest and best de. livered addresses we have ever had the pleasure of listening to. Mr. Chalmeri spoke without manuscript and with a distinctness and clearness that are un excelled. The speaker said man has one golden age in his history. A t onE time he stood complete before hh maker. He was perfect but he abused1 his probation state and fell. He is now~ no longer complete. "Be ye therefor< perfect even as your father in heaven h perfect."' Perfection of character is thE ideal the bible sets before men. Chrisi died to satisfy the requirements of thE law, to remove the legal obstructions t< the attainment of this perfection of character, so that man might arist from Paradise Lost to Paradise Regain ed. His character is to furnish mar a divine portraiture of human life. Humanity has failed to furnish a per fet character. Men who are wor shipped and adored in one age ar( cursed and abused in another. But th< character of Christ in the bible has stooc the closest test and scrutiny anid criti cism of the ages. Everything that h good and grand and noble in chmaractc: entres in his. His character as por traed in the four gospels is comhilIleti in all its parts. The attacks of skeptief anl infidels have proved futile. I' commands the homage of thme ages This matchless character is a type, prefiguration of what muan's characte: may become. It is the only type o normal developmnent knowna to on: race. Our humanity wa gloritied in him. No man knows the possimilitieu in himself until lhe kn.ows Christ Many who might have lifted their head! amidst the stars are (dying up)on th< troubled waves because they were un touched by the higher inspiration Christ and not uncreated ideals is ti model to be followed by all who wvouk make perfection of character the idea of their life. The character of Christ is the oni3 ideal capable of meeting the growi wants of the soul. Unless nman prover false to himself he must rise higher an< higher, until he reaches perfection. N< man can advance higher than his ideal no higher than he.aspires. Who doe not pity the man whose attainment are all behind him. The man whm rests his case upon the fact that hi father was a duke or wore the sword in battle. What more melancholy spectacli than that nation whose honors all lii in the graves of its dead..- Who follow the gospel ideal of the divine-human will always have to follow on. Only as we approximate to the per fection seen in Christ do we give per mnanence to our acquisitions an< attainments. The wise builder of char acter mioves onward and upward, build ing a structure that shall never eruam There is a power inherent in persona character. T1here is a supremacy ove the ages of himt who is at the head o our race. That figure stands at thi head, ruling and guiding the ages. 1 is a supremacy, not from wealth, rani nor social position, and neither fron military powver, but fronm the mnajest; of personal character. The same ma: be true in a lower degree of all Christ ike character. It will stand amids the assaults of the evil one like the roe] in mid ocean, and dash the waves tha lash upon it back, shattered to p)ieces. There is a divine as well as a hunmai element in the progress of nations. Good meni are the true paliadiumi anm defense of a nation. Better than bhi o bulwarks and glittering swordls ar men of unstained honor anid uniiini peached veracity. The absorbing (question for the youn; men of to-day is not what will you de but rather what will vou be. If we ar what wve ought to be wve will do wha we ought to do. Character determine the osition and not the piositiont th character.
