i V Mete missionary operations in the Indian
i ! ■'. erritory, in Cuba through the Florida
. ?, aptist Convention, and in various destitute
■Acidities in the South. It is mainly to hear
; ud discuss the matters brought forward in
r- So annual reports of these twoboards, that
ur convention meet* each year.

’ Summary of statistics for past year—
Btntions 4G, misaionaties To, assistants 43.
• Baptized, 102; church members, 1,328;
scholars in schools, 43G; contributions to
mission churches, $1,310.24,
* If Of these the Mexican and Brazilian mis-
6*1 sions are new; tho Italian mission is about
ten years old, and the China and African
[missions have been carried on thirty or
. forty years.
•j The home board, daring the last year,
employed two hundred ana fifty missiona
ries and teachers in various parts of the ten
f States South, its msiu work being in
2 Texas, Louisiana, Florida, North Carolina
and tbo Indian Territory. It supplied 650
1 stations, constituted 75 churches, built 42
meeting houses, carried on 326 Sunday-
i schools with 12,531 teachers and pupils,
ami, by means of its ministers, preached
27.2C3 sermons, held 5,238 prayer meetings
and baptized 3,812 persona. These repre
sent new converts, who united with the
church.
In connection with the Florida Baptist
Convention, through its church ami mis
sion at Kay West, it established n new mis
sion at Cuba, where, through the joint
labors of nn American and u Cuban, 400
have been eonvurted to the Baptist faith
and are ready to be organized into churches.
In tho Indian Territory fifteen preachers
and teachers ore employed, and the "Lever
ing School" is sustained at Wetnmpka.
This school has a constant attendance ol
fifty Indian boja anil fifty Indian girls, the
limit of its capacity. One of the most
9 important interest* of the Home Board is
st New Orleans, a city of 2U0.102 popula
tion, where there are very few Baptists. We
have there three churches uud two mission
stations, six Sunday-schools, besides sev
eral industrial and kindergarten schools,
with quite an efficient corps of male and
female workers.

The chair called upon the Bev. Dr. Ellis
of Baltimore, hut a Northerner in reality,
to respond to the address of welcome, and
he did so in a short but appropriate and ele
gant speech.
The convention adopted a strong report
against the manufacture and sale of whisky,
and it most highly commended woman’s
work for missions. The speeches made in
favor of the different phaaea of onr foreign
mission work were very fine; the only
breeze of excitement created being that
aroused by the report on the Cuban mis
sion. The report advised that it be placed
under the care of the foreign board, but
such strong opposition was manifested,and
so many strong speeches were made in
favor of permitting the mission to remain
under the joint care of the Florida Baptist
Convention, acting in co-operrtion with the
home board, that the report was altered and
"home” was inserted in the place of "for
eign" in the report, nnd the anomaly occurs
of'our home mission board carrying on a
foreign mission.
THE 8KMINAHT.
A large portion of the time of the conven
tion was allotted to the Southern Baptist
Theological Seminary at Louisville, Ky.
Dr. Manly explained the workings of ti e
institution—that it was free in all respects
bnt as to board and lodging. He stated its
ant nourishing condition and told how
John A. Broadus secured donations
1 itely to tho amount of i90,000. Dnrini
vi it North recently, he socured $00,600 for
erecting the seminary buildings, on condi
tion that the seminary raised the $30,000
necesnry to purchase the ground.
This was telegraphed to Dr. Boyce
Louisville, who raised the arnouut
in that city within a few hours, and the
$60,000 was paid over to Dr. Broadus, by
several wealthy Baptists of Now York.
CONCLUSION.
Taken altogether the convention was har
monious, smooth, pleasant, interesting and
very enjoyable. The entertainment was
princely and nought occurred to mar the
general enjoyment hut the sudden death of
ltev. Isaac V, Wilkes of heart disease. The
next convention will meet at Louisville.

An Oswego, N. 1’., special of the 10th
inak says: The startling story reached
hero to day of a triple tragedy at Louns-
berry, a station on the Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western railway, three miles
west of this city. The principal resident
of the town is Horaco Lounsberry, a wealthy
and aged farmer, who with his wife bos
been eared for by a favored niece, Frances
Payson, and nephew, the latter a name
sake, Horace Payson. Young Payson was
hard-working young man and employed
cultivating his aged uncle's farm. Nor
man Lnunshi rry was a tuau well along In
years ut,d a brother of Horace. He was at
one time well off, but quarreled with his
v. ife, separated and lost his property. Not
long ago he married a young women named
Pieshea aud together they occupied a tone
meat house oa bis brother’s farm, Horace
Louusherry supplying him with whatever
they noeded.
It seems that Norman becamo auspicious
and jealous of young l’uyson, though with
out cause, and hail been heard to threaten
to kill him. Yesterday tho two got into a
quarrel about a horse, lint the trouble was
apparently of short duration. This morn
ing yonug l’uyson took the team nnd went
as usael to the field to plow. A shower
coining up, ho drovo the team under a shed
near by to wait till it had passed.
While Payson wa* sitting here on his
plow Kormon Louaberry came across the
road from bi* house, twenty rods away,
with a shot-gun under hi* arm. He entered
the ahed through a little door, evidently
unseen by l’ayaon, and immediately raised
tho gun and fired. The shot took effect in
the back of th* head, and when found
few minute* later life was almost extinct.
Soma of the abut alao injured one of the
the horses considerably. The murderer re
turned immadietvly to hi* house by the way
be came. It was yot early, and his wife wa*
■till asleep in her bed room, with htr face
to the wall. Hot husband stealthily en
tt red her room, nnd, placing the muzzle ol
the gun almost against the hack of her
head, fired another fatal ebarga, Uavini

toeite aide of hi* wife's bed room, and, re
casting the gun with a * envy charge, bo

end, using hie foot on the trigger, sprung
the lock and completed Uia bloody work.
The fact of the first murder was discov
