Durlingtonlun Writes of Thin;s of
(?real Variety, Which Interest Some,
Xo Doubt. ?
I have nearly gotten out of the prac?
tice of writing. For some time I have
been almost continuously on th?
road, sometime? in the car, at others
in my buggy, and have seen all sorts
of people In all manner of conditions,
AJ1 proverbs are not true. For In?
stance you hear It It said that It takes
all sorts of epople to make the world,
which is false as can be. The world
would be better off without a lot of
the folks In it, und could easily do
without them. A business man said
to me that a truly honest person was
hard to find. Has the world gotten
no better since old Diogenes went
around with his torch. I was about
boarding a train at a certain town
when one suggested the purchase of
a ticket; another whom I did not
know, a preacher (?) as I afterwardc
learned, said he never bought a ticket,
either becauso if the conductor missed
him he saved his ear fare, and justified
himself by saying it was not his busi?
ness to run the conductor xlown. Y/es,
he was the exception, and not the
rule. He was a rascal, as I might
easily show. But is the world grow?
ing no better? Possibly frcm yjur
viewpoint, no, but to others, on high?
er ground, yes. a thousand limes.
I spoke to a man about a matter
and h-3 replied: "It is none of iny
business." He represents a set of
folks who stand for nothing and
never do anything to make the world
better. No partisan, no antagonisms,
no friends, or rather, a friend to
none. 1 slept two nights with two
little boys, brothers. The first night
the younger, Ben, lay on the back?
side, against the wall, and there he
stayed, let Leroy kick and squirm as
he would. The second he waa in the
middle while Leroy was anywhere to
keep out of the reach of his heels.
Some day I conjecture Ben will make

It is bad to be to poor that you ore
mean, and yet there are some such
people in the world. Out in the

impose on and beat their neighbors'
beyond all endurance, then conclude
when indulgence is withdrawn that
everybody is mad with them, and

extort money from the peopie to avail
themselves of the stock law.

have such a companion I urn sorry
for you.
The catalogue grows apace, and
who says we need such people.
Bad reads! I never saw their equal.
From Blshopvllle to Camden, from
?Uamden to Boykin, they are almost
impassable, with an empty vehicle,
and if the rains continue a condition
faces us that is serious to think of.
And as I see it there is no remedy for
It unless they brush them, quite a
proper thing to Jo where they are
clayed, as I know by experience. Many
of our ronds have the brush suillcient

lurking places for rascals and toughen

MISSIONARY SOCIAL UNION.
Held First Medina; in the First Bnp
tlst Church on Monday Aftern Jon-?
Splendid Attendance?Successful
Gathering
Notwithstanding the very threaton
lnR weather a large number of ladies
interested in "soul-winning" gathered
at the a\)0V3 named place tc discuss
and listen to the discussion of topics
vital to Mit denary Work in China.
Singular as It may seen, yet for some
time the laymen of the ch.irehe* have
taken wry little active interest If.
this great work, which was committed
to them when the Master commission?
ed His disciples and their vuceessors
to go into all the world and preach
the Gospel to every creature.. But in?
stead the faithful, consecrated women
of the church have been permittee'
and really forced to carry out this
command by organizing themselves
into Woman's Missionary Societies for
the inciting of interest, in this great
cau^e, among their sex and the
gathering from all whatever they
could for the fostering of the great
work ol missions. Only of late hat
the laymen taken a step from a "bus
inesi" standpoint in this direction,
and in all the churches is this great
work being taken up by active busi?
ness men.
At the meeting on Monday after
.:<?on the social committee was on
hand promptly and distributed ap?
propriate little mementoes?a red
(cardboard) heart with "China" on
one side and some suitable scriptural
\ersc on the other side. They also
ptVi each a programme.
The exercises were begun by a
choir voluntary, 'Publish the Glad
Tidings."
The order of scrlptur ? reading and
prayer was observed, and all sung
"Jesus shall reign where'ere the sun."
etc.
The regular programme was then
taken up and followed.
Miss Mary Alice Mjchaux gave a
lecture on the Geography of China.
She used a map and charmed all with
her clear presentation of the country
from a geographical setting.
She was prepared with the work
shv had in hand und all we.'*, internet"
ed and enthusiastic over what they
learned from tho study.
The "People of China" was present?
ed In a forceful and appropriate way
by Mrs. Jim Chandler. She introduc
eel her hearers to the many peculiari?
ties, habits and customs of this people
as a nation and in their progress untli
this time. It was highly appreciated
and in all probability made her audi?
ence feel that they could In a better
way sympathize with the peoph.
The "History and Tradition of Chi
na" was excelle ntly portrayed by Mrs.
R. I. Manning. -She was highly con?
versant with the subject in hand and
Impressed all with the history and the
peculiar tradition of this, to us, a very
strange nation.
The last dlreusdon on the pro?
gramme was "Baptist Missions tu
t'hina.' Miss Mary Brunen ac
quainted her audie-nCe with what the
Baptists as a denomination are doing
in China to evangelize her people. Her
discussion was interesting not only to
Baptists but to all present, because it
showed what other Christian forces
are operative In this land of aliens
from ?:od.
A chart had been prepared with a
?eprcsetitation of two hemispheres,
one in the upper left-hand and one In
the lower right-hand corner. The
former was filled with a church ami
had attached to it a miniature United
States flag; the latter had a walk
thtodgh it with a heathen temple gl
he-ad and question mark at the foot
with drawings of Chinese departing
from the temple on the "Way to Life"
and going where/ To this hemis?
phere was attached a Chinese flag.
Between the two was written diago?
nally across the chart "How Far Are
You From China?" At the opening of
the session each one was asked to
think of the question and later give
an appropriate- answer. The gnawers
were now had. They were maey, va?
ried and all good.
The president, Mrs. Epting, ex?
plained, in her own effective way, th*
meaning of the chart and made all to
feel that they each had a part in the
great work which God has given to all
to do. By turning the chart around
the other side shewed them hew far
they ought to be from China. It was
the drawing of a large red heart with
the outline of the map of China so
close to them that they would think
daiiy of the dreadful condition of Its
people and ha\e prayers go fiemi their
hearts Conttnu.tlty for the spread of
the Gospel.
Prayer was then offered for China
and all missionary agencies there, and
especially Baptist missions.
And the gathering was adjourned
by the singing of "From Greenland's
Icy Mountains," etc.
All are looking forwarel with in?
tense interest and pleasure to the ne^xt
meeting which will be held .n the
Episcopal Church on April 13, 190S.
W. S. Coppleston, proprietor of a
well known d>e house In Charleston,
is dead at his home in that city at
the age of 43 years.

Negro Mischief Makers.
(From the Hartford Courant.)
The men whom the negroes of this
country have most to deal nowadays,
arc not the Tillmans and Vardamana,
but the professional agitators of th.dr
own race and color. Some of these,
we notice?Trotter, the Boston negro
editor, and two or three kindred spir?
its-?have now planned a national ne?
gro conference at Philadelphia. April
I, to make "demands" upon the politi?
cal parties, u hose national conven?
tions will assemble.a few months later
In their call they speak of the Roose?
velt administration as a"c7.arocratie

a "notoriously hostile attidude towards
citizens of color." The less the sen?

with these mischief-makers and their
conference, the better for them.

Columbia. Jan. 21.?To forfeit one'*
freedom for life i:? an extreme pt na!
hi pay f< r friendship. Allen Emerson,
convicted murderer, refugee from
justice, with a standing reward U
$1,100 for his capture dead or alive, ^
gave himself up to the authorities of*e
Anderson county and yesterday don?
ned the garb of a convict at the South
Carolina ponit ntiary. He was in hid?
ing for five months and up to the
very minute that he walked out into
the middle of the lone public road in
the southern part of Anderson county^
last Saturday night and revealed him?
self to an officer of the law his where?
abouts were a mystery to the autho?
rities. He had walked for three days,
coming from down in Georgia with a
firm determination to give himself up
and be taken to the penitentiary f"r^|
life?all because of his friendship for "
a certain man. Nothing less than
this, he thought, could possibly set
his friend right with the people.
Emerson was delivered to the peni?
tentiary authorities yesterday after?
noon at 4.30 o'clock by Sheriff GreenJ|
of Anderson county. Emerson was
shaved and got the regulation hair
cut and a brand new suit of stripes
and was registered in the entry book
as No. 17629. After bein** weighWi
and measured arv a amoral Inventory
registered Emerson sat down and told M
the reporter his story. It was a sad^
recital: pathetic deeply impressive.
He didn't tell It without tears In his
eyes nor without a tremble to hi*
voice, tut what In said was not with
attempt to be dramatic.
