by committees which are considering
the differences between that church
and the Union Theological Seminary
of Ne wYork. Since the relations be
tween the church and the seminary
were broken off, because ol the a’-
leged heretical beliefs of some
the members of the faculty, many
laymen have expected an amicable
adjustment that would be mutually'
beneficial, might he arranged,
this view, a majority of the com
mittee have agreed on asking for
another year’s time.
The two majority reports regard
an adjustment as a helpless one.
The minority report states that the
members of the seminary faculty
have failed to answer important
questions regarding their beliefs and
that the answers given indicated
that they had no right to recogni
tion as orthodox Presbyterians.

Little Elizabeth was one oi the
brightest babies that I have ,/ver
known. She was lived by all who
knew her. Was one year, eight
months and one day old. She left
o mourn her loss, a mother, one of
the purest and noblest women who
ever blessed a home, and a father,
one brother and many other close
relatives.
The funeral was held at the old
historic Pisgah Cemetery, in Leon

the pastor. Our tenderer sympa-

roses. Our sympathy goes out to
the bereaved ones.
There was preaching yesterdaby
the pastor, Rev. Pafrish, who is do
ing much good in building up the
church and community at large.
Many good and noble men have had
charge of this church before, and
among them were Rev. Carroll, Rev.
Galden and Rev. Campbell. I think
that that good and true man, Rev.
J. M. Fushin preached his first ser
mon here, and others equally loved
have occupied the pulpit.
Since the rain, everybody is just
too busy to say good morning. The
young crops look promising and
that causes the farmers to wear a

Administration llml Hoped For a
Delay in the Mutter.
Washington, May 19.-—The move
ment in California to submit tho
alien land act to a referendum vote,
it is understood, to be viewed by the
administration, as a further oppor
tunity for a diplomatic adjustment
of the differences between the Un
ited States and Japan.
The Asiatic Exclusion League has
already taken up the movement,
making a submission of the act to
the people very probable, the offi
cials here believe.
Japan Is not expected to approve
of that method of dealing with Its
protest, and it is further believed
that Japan wants the question set
tled without a year and a half de
lay.

Walker, a banker of this city, who
swallowed poison last Wednesday
night, mistaking it for a headache
tablet, was able to be up today and
experiences no pain, although the
attending physicians say he cannot
live.
Walker gave a reception at his
home Friday night, when his phy

This case is an unusual one and
many friends of the young man in
Thomasrille have been shocked to
hear of it. He was a class-mate of
two Thomasrille boys at the State
University in 1903, and knew many
others attending college at that
time aud since then.

MYSTERY FOR PAST TWELVE
YEARS.
Yonkers, N. Y., May 19.—In a
large residence, occupied only by

ble residence street here, Miss Ada
Dunscomb, a middle-aged spinster,

A physician called by S. Whitney
Dunscomb, Jr., age sixty, whoi is
the woman’s brother, found the

years, when the family moved there.
The blinds were always drawn. No
servants were employed and no vis
itors were seen at the mansion.
Officials say taat the costly old
furniture is falling to pioces from
neglect, and dust has accumulated
throughout the house apparently for
yeairs.
