U.-^TmTTile lng to a higher state in the-Christian world not only rhe negro race, but the norden of foreigners who become American citliena each year formed the prlaclpal topic of discussion be? fore the American Missionary Asso? ciation at the session of the triennial council of the Congregational Chjirch> bare today. Notable addresses were delivered by Justice David J. Brewer, on the Im? portance, of the American missionary work to the nation; by Bishop C. B. Galloway, of Mississippi, on the Christian e location of the negro, and by former (Sov. W. J. Northen, of Georgia, who told of the work of the Christian League of Georgia, an or* gantsatlon la that 8t?te which la com? posed Of members of both races and baa done much to lessen crime. Justice Brewer spoke In part as fol? lows: ?The upttfV through ChttsTfth cttu* cation of the heathen la the principal work of ti. ? American Missionary As? sociation. True, they sre not the only objects *>f Its Interest and care. All the despised races la our borders are Included. I have myself done a little preaching from the bench of the Su? preme Court ok the duty of Christian America to heathen Chinas?. Ah:.' I said made but slight Impression 0^1 the courts, but It will vet be heard and heeded^ by the greet body of American Christians. Put the num? bers of the colored people so surpass those of ell the others and their rola tl on t > the nation are so peculiar that not unnaturally we look earn? estly upon the work of association among the colored people. And their very numbers atteat the value of this work to the nation. -8urely an>thing which Is uplifting one-ninth of our population must be > of profound interest to all. Many of the vast multitudea pouring Into this Republic are racially cold-boodej and ' ?elfish N i a few come tainted withv. the spirit of anarchy, and are willing | to d -stroy ull social order In the hope j of personal gain out of the wreck. ? The?e Immigrants become clttx<ns ay* J we are cttlsens, and as Is this color- , ed and enfranchised race.

In the. struggle, which may be expected to come between order and anarchy,* may It not be that these people, grate? ful to the nation for their liberty and to the good people of the 4and for { their uplift In knowledge, purity and soctsl standing, prove themselves a mighty force, upholding law, order and the supremacy of the nation? ? Stranger things have happened than that these people, crushed and wrong? ed for generations, should become at last strong defenders of the nation end the community at whose hands they have hitherto received Injustice. ?They are here as cltlsens.

State Entomologist Will Locate in Capital City While Fighting; Holl ?Mi Columbia. Oct. 16.?Dr. C. H. Chambliss, recently a member of the faculty of Clemaon college, but now State entomologist, will shortly move his office to#Colurnbia, aa he can cov? er \he State much more easily from here than from any other point. The change of location has the full ap? proval of the Sta-;e board of ento? mology. Me?*rs. Sease, Wannamaker and Maeldin # One of Dr. Chambliss' flrat duties w441 be the exclusion of the boll wee? vil. The danger of the boll weevil in? vasion of South Carolina is imminent on account of the threatened whole? sale Importation by South Carblina farmers of Western cotton seed hulls, which very often carry thousands of boll weevils and eggs. Of course one who purposely and knowingly Import? ed 'such a pest would he dealt with very aeverely. It Is with farmers who are not aware of the danger from Western hulls that Dr. Chambliss will principally have to deal. It will be remembered that Dr. Chambliss was summarily discharged at Clemson, but refused to quit witK out an investigation. The Investiga? tion showed that Dr. Chambliss had done splendid work, and that he was discharged because he did not through froiuent bulletins keep the colhgt as A?. ell advertised as the pres? ident and trustees thought necessary In order to keep up the appropria? tions. Dr. Chambliss contended that he spent in actual work for the farm? ers of the State the time that would otherwise he waste* 'n the compila? tion of bulletins, ?*>.. ~ that whenever hs had anything of Importance to communicate, he would issue bulle? tins without prompting. It was strongly Intimated that the college might employ an advertising man or press agent at a less expense than would be Incurred by devolving this publicity work upon a high-salaried entomological expert This Intima? tion did not come from Prof. Cham? bliss, however KILLING NEAIl KINUSTUEE. \>rr<> Cut to Death by White Man in Quarrel Over ltlgtit of ttuy. ? ___________ King?trev Oct. 13.?Henry Farrell. a n^gro. was killed late yesterday af t' rn?>on two mile* from Kingstree, on the road leading to Murry's Ferry, by Dick Splvey, a white man.

WEDNEi DEBT OF SIXTY YEARS PAID. 1 Obligation of $2.000 Grown to $50, 000 Is Liquidated by Widow of Mil? lionaire. Chicago, Oct. 14.?A dispatch to the Tribune from Dubuque, la., says: the fact that $50.000 of the Russell Sage millions will go to the heirs of Ezeklel Ollphant is furnishing an In? teresting theme of conversation In this vicinity. The Ol'phants now residing in De? Moines. formerly made their home In Dubu jue county, later pur? chasing a farm in Jones county. The story on which the payment of the sum named rests dates back more than 60 years. The debt was one which the lapse of years had wiped out so far as legal responsibility was concerned. About the year 1844 there was a partnership in the salt business between. Joseph (afterward3 general) Slocum and Ollphant at Sy? racuse, X. Y. The business did . not prosper and in settling lip the affairs of the concern $2,000 belonging to Ollphant was ? applied to the ac? count. Slocum remained In New York and Oliphant, with his family, came West. The ei lest daughter of Mr. Slocum became the second wife of Russell Sage of New York. The families lost jtrack of each other and the old debt of Joseph Slocum remained unpaid. The matter recently wa^ presented to Mrs. Sage's attorneys and she order? ed the debt, grown through Interest from $2.000 to $50,000, discharged. FOUR AUTOISTS KILLED.

OCTOBER 16 AS TO SENATOR LATIMEH. Is (he Press of the State Helping Him? ?Politicians Think Papers Made Plunder. Columbia, Oct. 15.?"It seema to me," said a prominent and successful politician, who is now' holding high office in this State, "that the tading newspapers which support the immi? gration policy made a ta;d?cal nils take in handling Senat >r Latimer s nitial utterance c< \.?rni: g immigra? tion. The Interview which h-? gave out at Greenville was ambiguous, it could have been interpreted either way, as for or against immigration, and if the newspapers had only, ac? cepted the senator as a convert to im migr&tion they would have had him dead. He would then have beon pre? cluded from raising immigration as an issue, and would have been in line with the sentiment expressed by the daily newspapers. "But instead of that the papers came out with head lines and edito? rials which proclaimed that Latimer was opposed to immigration, and ever since *hat time both the senator and his friends and his newspaper critics have been kept busy trying to tell just where the senator .does stand *on this question. In my opinion his crit? ics have played into the senator's hands. , /'Personally I believe that immigra? tion as a losing issue, and that the op? position to the policy is wisest from the standpoint of the politician, and Senator Latimer doubtless does not regret the interpretation put on his remarks. And, by the way, he is go? ing to be a hard man to beat." SITUATION IN THE PHILIP? PINE ISLANDS. Hong Kong, Oct. 12.?Secretary* I .Taft and party are doing Hong Kong today.

Stamboul, La., Oct. 13.?Citizens from the whole countryside turned out to day in expectation of seeing the president take his departure from Stamboul for t\e South, but because of the change of plans they were dis? appointed. There was general ex pression of satisfaction, however, over his reconsideration of ' his determination to move to Ton? gas parish, for now that the change is not-to be made Stamboul confesses that It would have been much chagrined to have the distin? guished visitor go away with an emp? ty bag before the time originally fixed. General confidence In his success in the new camp on Bear Lake continues buoyant and the reports from there are uniformly favorable. Indeed It Is said that a number of fresh trails were discovered yesterday and that on one occasion the parly came on a good sized bear which, on account of the absence of the dogs, escaped. Many of the dogs used in last week's strenuous search of the barren coun? try are reported to be lame and an effort is being made to replace them with fresh animals. ? It is not believed by the president's associates that he will now make any change. There is no doubt of the presence of galr.e now, but ifTis shy and may disappear before the hunt? ers, as it did from the Montteello camp. The Tensas parish people are reported much disappointed over the failure of the president to carry out his programme for his visit to their township. Secretary Latta went out to the camp today. ** WAS IT A DOUBLE MURDER? The Bodies of a Man and Woman Found In Delaware River Near Philadelphia.
