SUNDAY NOr KEPT HOLY.
PRESBYTERIANS ALARMED BY THE
SIN OF THE AGE.
Tendency to Make the Day One
of Recreation on the Increase A
Special Committee Appointed to
Report on the Work Among’ the
Negrces - Several Overtures Pre
sented.
Asheville, N. C., May 17.—This was
the third day of the general assembly of the
Presbyterian church south. The proceed
ings were opened ot 9:30 o’clock this morn
ing with prayer by Dr. Hemphill
A communication was read from the
colored presbytery of Texas asking that
the assembly give them aid in building
churches. It spoke hopefully of the work
they were accomplishing iu that state. It
was signed by J. H. Blake, moderator, and
w’as referred to the committee on home
missions.
The special committee for work among
the negroes was announced by the modera
tor as folio's: R. H. Fleming, G. A. Ris
ing, \Y. C. Smith, R. Q. Baker, M. M.
Gilliam, T. S. Bradßeld and William Cox.
This committee will report to the assembly.
The presbytery of Albemarle presented
an overture on the evangelization of the
Jijws. It was referred without being read.
An overture touching an obligation of
tithe was referred to a special committee.
A second overture with regard to evan
gelization of the Jews from the presbytery
of Athens was referred.
A number of other overtures were read.
The more important were one from the
synod of South Georgia and Florida, asking
that the boundaries of the synod be
changed; one from the presbytery of Con
cord, asking th.it the question of tithes be
remitted by the assembly; and one from
the presbetery of Eooree, in reference to
young women who were offering themselves
jas foreign missonaries.
OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH.
The report of the permanent committee
,pn observance of the Sabbath was referred
to a special committee. It expressed re
gret that the committee had nothing of an
encouraging nature to report. Many things
had been bettered as a result of their w ork,
but in their opinion observance of the Sab
bath was not’ retaining its hold upon the
people as in former days. The general ten
dency seemed to be in the direction of looser
views of the observance of the
Lord’s day. Out of forty bresby
teries to which they had written no
more than a dozen reported an improve
ment in the keeping of the day. W hile it
was generally admitted that more faithful
observance was noticeable among church
members it was not so in the outside world.
Many seemed to think that the day was for
recreation and pleasure, and not for sacred
rest. ,
SOME OF THE CAUSES.
The introduction of railroads, foreign
travel and the prevalence of a looser view
of the meaning of the scriptures were
assigned as passible causes. Newspapers
vied with each other to make their issues
on that day most attractive. The report
stated that public conveyances were patron
ized on .Sunday largely by church people.
By way of throwing light to offset the dark
side of the report it afforded the committee
pleaasure to state that the municipal laws
in some of the larger cities were now
better enforced, and saloons were
closed in some of them and
base ball games prohibited on Sunday. The
chairman of the committee had attended
the annual meeting of the American Bible
Union, held at Washington, and had deliv
ered a lecture on Sunday trade and Sunday
newspapers. The report spoke of President
Harrison and a majority ot the members of
bis cabinet as being of pronounced religious
views.
OBEETINOS SENT NORTH.
A committee on foreign correspondence
was appointed to send greetings to the Sar
atoga assembly and forwarded the follow
ing: “The general assembly of the Presby
terian church south in the united States, in
session at Asheville, IN. C., sends fraternal
greetings, and iavokes upon you tne divine
blessing.”
The report of the executive committee on
publication was read by Dr. James K.
Hason and referred.
The treasurer’s report shows that $8,557
have been received on the collection account
from churches, Sabbath schools and indi
viduals during the past year, an increase of
about 10 per cent. There has been a large
increase of expenditures for benevolent
work. The table of assets and liabilities
shows an excess of assets over the liabilities
of $80,041, an increase over last year of
$3,852. The liabilities and debts are practi
cally none. Tne number of all the period
icals issued during the year is as follows:
Earnest Worker, 135,000; Children's
Friend, 400,000; Lesson Paper, 1,560,000;
primary lesson papers, 800,000.
EDUCATIONAL WORK.
The report of the executive committee on
education was read by Dr E. M. Richard
son and referred. It spoke with feeling of
the death of F. W.Sherrillof the committee.
Compared with last year the number of
persons aided by the committee was thirty
nine greater. The committee urged the
importance of increased contributions, and
asked Sunday schools and ladies’ societies
to contribute. It also urged large churches
to give their aid to the oummiltee instead
of to individuals, as was frequently the cus
tom.
Dr. C. A. Stillman read the thirtieth an
nual report of the executive committee of
the Institute for Training Colored Ministers
at Tus aloosa, Ala. The report stated that
there had been no interruption of the exer
cises, and that in Robert B. McAltin, who
succeeded Dr. Sanderson, they had found a
■worthy head far the institution. The at
tendance of students, Presbyterians, had
been somewhat larger than in previous
years. The report recommended the estab
lishnient of a preparatory department for
the training or colored students. Five
students will be sent out at tae close of the
present session. The library has 1,500 vol
umes. The report was decidedly flattering.
A UNIVERSAL PEACE PLEA.
Dr. W. A. Campbell submitted an over
ture asking the assembly to petition the
different religious bodies of the country,
asking them to join the assembly in petition
ing all the governments of Christian coun
tries to take measures to banish warfare as
a means of settling strife that arises between
nations and to substitute a more rational
and Christian tribunal. It was tabled.
A long communication from the tem
perance committee was presented and its
reading was made the special order of busi
ness for to-day.
The place of meeting of the next general
assembly being up for discussion, Rev. C.
Wilson of West Virginia invited the assem
bly to meet in Charlestown, W. Va. Rev.
J. A. Bryan of Alabama urged Birming
ham’s merits. Rev. C. R. Hemphill, D. D.,
of Kentucky, suggested Louisville. Rev. T.
C. Barrett of Arkansas urged Little Rock.
THE NIGHT SESSION.
The assembly met again at 8 o’clock to
night. Dr. A. G. Witherspoon of tne Sea
men’s bethel of New Orleans i resided and
the services were devoted entirely to the
subject of Christian work among the sea
men. Addresses were delivered by Rev.
*’■ h. Carter of Georgia, Rev. Chichester
of South Carolina and Dr. Witherspoon.
METHODISM’3 CONFERENCE!.
An Overture from the Protestant
Episcopal Church.
St. Louis, May 17. To— day’s session of the
general conference of the Methodist Episco
pal church (south),was the last at which new
business could be introduced, aud it was
Unusually dull.
The committee on frat ernal correspond
ence, t > which was referred a communica
tion asking the general conference to ap
point commissioners to meLot commission-
CIS to be appointed by the house of
bishops and the house of deputies
of the Protestant Episcopal church
for a conference on organic
union, reported recommending non-com
pliance with the request. The committee
held that the spirit of the church had al
ways been broad. It had welcomed to
membership all who wished to be saved
and res lved to turn over anew leaf, with
out . egard to ra-e oi color. This policy
would never be abandoned. As for organi
zation with the memorialists the committee
would regard it as untrue that the
south had divided from any church. The
committee wanted those wi:o made division
to make overtures for a reunion.
vote of the conference was unanimous in
favor of the report.
A resolution condemning Sunday news
papers was referred to tne committee on
Sabbath.
WORLDLY AMUSEMENT.
The following were appointed as a com
mittee to formulate a declaration upon
worldly amusement: Dr. J. J. Ligbert,
chairman; Messrs. R'gers, Mass, White
head, Southgate, Wilson, Smart, Ryland,
White, Ea.it, Brown, Miller, Magee,
Christian, and Atkins.
The salaries of the bishops were raised
from SI,OOO to $4,600, the latter to include
traveling expenses.
Dr. Puilp t, T. B. Stone and Horace
Bishop of '1 exas submitted a long preamble
and resolution against the use of tobacco
and opium by church members, and
especially by traveling preachers, and ask
iug that the committee on the spiritual
state of the church be instructed to report
some suitable deliverance on the subject,
but the matter was quickly squelched by
postponing it.
The proposition to give part of the mis
sion fund to aid the Paine institute, at Au
fusta, Ga., and Lane institute, at Jackson,
enn., both colored schools, was defeated
by a decided majority.
The session then adjourned.
CANDLER CHIPS.
The Orange Growers Damaged by the
Prolonged Drought.
Candler, Fla., May 17.—Mrs. E. M.
Dußose of Darien, Ga., is visiting relatives
here.
T. M. Rickard has the water-works on his
place completed and in operation. His
grove was badly damaged by the long
drought, as the trees were large and very
close together, but it is a thing of beauty
now.
A heavy rain has fallen here, the first
srnco Sept. 22 last. A few lignt showers
occasionally have kept field crops growing,
but the orange groves suffered terribly. The
large groves shed a good deal of their fruit,
but still the crop will be a fairly good ono.
J. R. Wright of this place recently
caught seventy-five pounds of fish in ono
day in the Ocklawaha river. The river is
very low and fish are plentiful
B. F. Smart has sold his farm and orange
grove, one mile north of town to parties in
Brooklyn, N. Y. We understand the price
paid was a good one, and that the owners
contemplate making extensive improve
ments on the same. The vegetable crop has
about all been shipped. The cabbage crop paid
splendidly. Beans and cucumbers were al
most a failure on account of the dry weather.
THOMASVILLE TATTLING3.
The Georgia Southern’s Efforts to Get

Thomasville, Ga., May 17.— The Geor
gia Southern continues to condemn laud to

jury made two awards yesterday. They
are satisfactory to both parties. The time
is drawing near when Thomasville will have
another independent railroad line. The
prospects for still other lines are brighten
ing almost daily.
The board of trustoes of the South Geor
gia college Is advertising for a president.
ThomasviUe’s cavalry company were out

pany will soon be able to mount fifty men,
and Thomasville is very proud of it.

EX-PRESIDENT CLEVELAND.
•
His Treatment of a Reporter Sent to 1
Investigate the Maria Hatpin Matter.
(Copyrighted.)
New York, May 17. —While Ex-Pres
ident Cleveland is being so roundly abused
for his treatment of Reporter Crawford it |
may interest the reader to know of an ep
isode in the ex-President’s life that has
never been published. It was during the
time he was governor of the state of New
York and a few weeks after the conven
tion that nominated him for President.
I was then a representative of a New
York republican newspaper, and was in
structed to go to Buffalo and investi
gate, without fear or favor, the ruinors
that coupled Mr. Cleveland’s name with
that of Maria Halpip. It occurred to me
that it would be a good plan to first visit
Albany, see Mr. Cleveland, and tell him
ex ictly what I was to do. I had no diffi
culty in obtaining an audience with him.
Dan Lament was on guard, and as we bad
been reporters together he admitted me
without question. I there met Mr. Cleve
land for the first time. I explained to him
very fully my instructions from my news
paper, and he listened with the deepest
attention.
“I have heard of you,” he said tome,
looki gme squarely in the face, “and I
i elieveyou will do mo justice. Th re has’
been a great deal that was not true printed
about this case, and I am only too anxious
that the truth shall come out. Investigate
the matter as much as you please; I cer
tainly will make no objection, but I bag of
you be honest and candid—be honest in
your work and candid in your statements.
I.wiil go further; I will give you a letter
of introduction to half a dozen well-known
men in Buffalo, who can helD you throw
light on the matter. It will do no harm.
Then you can also investigate independ
ently for yourself.”
I expressed my gratification at this; told
him, however, that I would hardly need the
letters, but as he mentioned the names of
some men I jotted them down on my memo
randum book and was about to leave. Tne
ex-President arose, shook me cordially by
the hand, walked with me to the door of the
executive chamber and saidas we par ed:
“Remember what I told you. Don’t spare
me if you find 1 havo dono wrong. I
have only on requist to make—tell the
truth. Bo fair, ana as as you are a young
man, and all the world is before you. I may
say to you that you will find that trut i and
candor will be of more service to you in
your career than any other qualities I
could name. Never tell a lie. It will serve
no good purpose. Be brave, be honest, be
truthful,” and as I turned to go he moved a
step forward and said: "When you have
finished your investigation drop me a line
here, or, better still, come aud sea me and
tell me what you have learned. I shall be
eager to know.”
I did n >t see Mr. Cleveland from that day
until the morning when he arrived in
Washington to be inaugurated President
of the United States. 1 met him in the
Arlington hotel as he was going to his
rooms.
“Well,” he said, as he extended his hand
and beamed with smiles, “I guess you did
not find out very much that was unfavor
able to me, for you didn’t return to Albany
to tell me about it, and I have never seen
any printed report on the subject,’’ and he
laughed heartily as the lamented Dan Man
ning led him from the ro >m.
Foster Coates.
Knew How it Was Himself!
From the Americus ((7a.) Herald.
A countryman was run iu one day last
week for being drunk on the streets'. Ho
was released a few hours later by Mayor
Felder, with the understanding that he
would come next day for trial. The next
day. however, he wrote a note, saying:
“Dear Sir — l am too sick to come to
town. You know how it is yourself. Name
a day when I am not feeling so bad, and I’ll
be there certain.”
The note brought a smile to the mayor’s
countenance, and the dav was set as a future
maybe.
“Ah!” says a sympathetic friend, “you should
go toadentist immediately and have that tooth
pulled out."
"I know I ought,” says the sufferer, “but the
fact is I haven’t got the nerve.”
“Oh, don t bother about that. The dentist
will find the nerve.” —Louisville Post.

IN MEMORIAM.
On the 6th day of November, in the year 1889,
ABRAHAM MINTS
went to his heavenly rest full of years and of
honor, a grievous loss to his family and fiends.
Yet they have the cons lation of contemplating
a life that bas left nothing to regret or to be
desired. Born in Savannah, where he had al
ways lived, and wtere he now lie. buried, from
his earlie t years his course was one of duty
well performed. Qii-t and modest, yet firm
and brave, he noted well bis part as son,
brother, husband, parent, neighbor and citizen.
Witn no ambition but to be right, his amiable
qualities made him beloved and respected by
all who knew him. while all he did was based
upon strictly moral and religious principle, lin
swerved by fear or favor. Having always be
fore him the question of the prophet. "What
doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly
and to love mercy, and to waik humbly before
thy God?” he answered it in a well-rounded
life, an example to all ar.d a fragrant and
blessed memory to those whose privilege it was
to know him. J. S. F.

station on this road, “Prichard’s.” is near the
northern line of the land, aud “Sand-fly" sta
tion Is just r.eyond the southern Hdb. There are
three new roads cut, and being cut. through
this land, which, with the two public roads and
the railroad above mentioned, give the properly
unequaled facilities for travel and unusual
advantage in road frontage.
The Casey Canal as hot. and the changes
thereof guaranteed by the county, will make
the drainage of this tract beyond criticism.
The land has been sub-divided into thirty
eight tracts, containing from seventeen to forty
acres, each having a guaranteed road front.
The quality of the land compares favorably
with tne best land in the county. Much of it is
high and beautifully wooded. None of it is
objectionably low. Taken as a whole, it would
be difficult if not Impossible to get another
piece of the size, of the diversified nature of
soil, and so near to the city and possessing such
valuable road privileges.
Syndicates already formed or to be formed
will find in this a better chance for large profits
than anything else on the market.
Full and explicit plats of the land can be had
from the unde signed.
Terms: One-tnird cash, one-third In six
months and one-third in twelve months, with
interest at the rate of 7 per cent, on deferred
payments, a bond for title being given by the
county or its representative.

NOTICE SYNDICATES, INVESTORS AND
OTHERS.
Your attention is respectfully called to the
fact that we are now offering lots in the south
eastern section of the city, in blocks of 9 or 18.
To small syndicates or investors of limited
capital this is a splendid opper unity, as these
lots, which are all staked off, and streets
opened, are offered at t e same rate that land
adjoining has recently been bought in bulk, and
the necessary cost in putting the same on the
market, and profits to be made for investors,
will consequently make these lots less than
half what adjoining property will be sold at.
Young men, get up small stock companies
among yourselves while this opportunity offers
and put the profits in your own pockets.

FLATTERY.
When we started business some four years
ago we got into a “We mean business stylo’’
of advertising. Now, people that are botches
and know very little about the trade try to fol
low the same style and select the same day to
air themselves. The pubiic is not so sleepy in
catching on. and Townsend is not so foolish as
to notice it by ihnue does. But it is due to the
public to let them know facts. Townsend has
worked as a journeyman in the best and largest
offices in the country, and has never been
bounced for incompetency. These fellows who
try to do things that they oan't do have nothing
else to do but follow in the footsteps of a wide
awake man.
