Rev. Cleland Kinloch Nelson bishop of the Episcopal diocese of Georgia. He has ably and popularly fllled his present apostolic office since 1892, coming to it from South Bethle hem. Pa., where lie had been rector of the Church of the Nativity for ten years. Bishop Nelson is Southern to the core. He is a Virginian by birth, nnd of splendid lineage. Episcopal Ians especially, and the public gener ally. will read with Interest the fol lowing biographical sketch which I find in the Cyclopedia of Georgia: Bishop Nelson was horn near Cobharn. Albemarle County. Virginia, May 23. 1852. a son of Keating L. S. and Julia member of the | A. (Rogers) Nelson, the former boyn In Belvoir. that county. December 4, 1819. and the latter in Keswick, same county, January 27, 1S25. William Nelson, of Yorktown, Va.. was the first native American representative of this family, and was a man of prominence golden wed- j and influence In Virginia, as is evi- ■r’s house at j dent when it Is rectified that he served wo miles from j ns president of that dominion. His were married. | son, Thomas, great-grandfather of Bishop Nelson, was born at Yorktown, in 1738: was educated at Cambridge. England, and after his return was elected to the Continental Congress of i 1775; was one of the signers of the nnual report of , Declaration of Independence; was aft- State of I erward appointed brigadier-general and commander-in-chief of the forces of the commonwealth of Virginia. His force, 3,000 strong, was raised and equipped at his own personal expense. In 1781 lie succeeded Thomas Jeffer son ns Governor of Virginia, and died In 17S9. His fifth son. Hugh Nelson, grandfather of the present bishop of Georgia, well upheld the prestige of 1he family name, both as a citizen nnd a public official. He hold suc cessively the following offices: Speak er of the House of Delegates of Vir ginia: judge of the Federal Court: presidential elector: Representative of Virginia in Congress. 1S11-23: and minister to Spain under President James Monroe. Keating L. S. Nelson who was the eighth in order of birth of the children of Judge Hugh Nel son. was a prominent educator in Vir ginia. In 1S62 he enlisted in the Con federate service, becoming a private in iho Albemarle Light Horse Cavalry, of Virginia, but was discharged from the service upon the enlistment of two of his sons, one of whom was killed incorporated, rated.

Bishop Nelson secured his preli minary educational discipline in his father’s school, in Albemarle County, after which ho entered St. John’s Col- scemed timt some traders were waiting for an indication as to the future atti tude of market leaders. But it was soon seen that brokers, believed to rep resent the local bull leader were buyers of near months. there was covering of shorts and reports that the bull leader was establishing a cotton sample and sales room by suggesting that a pro tracted bull campaign was contemplated, seemed to inspire some confidence among small buyers, with the result that the' market soon advanced to well over the closing figures of the previous day. There was some ljttle Irregularity dur ing the middle session, but the market ruled quite firm later and the high point was reached in the later trading. Small er receipts at the ports and interior towns for the day and rather lighter estimates for tomorrow helped the advance, togeth er with reports of light stock at un counted towns and Southern spot mat Receipts of cotton at the ports today were 30.838 bales against 3C.63G bales last week and 7.037 bales last year. For the week (estimated) 200,00 bales against 259.035 bales last week and 10S.985 bales last year. Today’s receipts at New Orleans were 10.461 bales against 2,340 bales last year, and at Houston 4,792 bales against 1,538 bales last year. Spot and Futures Markets.

Feb. 28.—There was an abrupt reversal of sentiment from that of yesterday In the stock market today as there was on Tuesday from that of Mon day. Today’s sharp recoveries placed prices quite generally on a level with the best prices touched in the recovery on Tuesday. The complete uncertainty of the specu lative sentiment is clearly defined in these numerous and abrupt changes in the reverse of prices. Today’s recov ery was as little accounted for by any developments as have been the early movements of the week. Some influence was attributed to the adjournment of the Interstate Commerce Commission’s hear ing in this city. But opinions in the Wall street district of the bad effects on secur ities threatened as a result of that hear ing. were not altered, but rather were emphasized by the later phases of the investigation. Commission houses profess a conviction that the public cannot be in duced to buy stocks while these revela tions are fresh in mind. Importance was given to the highly favorable reports from the iron and steel trade and the great influence expressed by authorities In that trade of the sound ness of the conditions existing. Money was firmer today both on call and on time. There was supposed to be some calling of loans going on in prepa ration for the March settlements which. PJ ! ™nt.

As a remedy for Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases, Contagious Blood Poison and all diseases arising from an impure or poisoned condition of the blood, S. S. S. has no equal. It goes into the circulation and thoroughly cleanses it of all impurities and makes a complete and lasting cure of these troubles and disorders. It furnishes to weak, polluted blood, rich, health-giving and health-sustaining qualities, and as this pure, fresh stream circulates through the system, all parts of the body are invigorated and made strong and healthv. S. S. S. is the only blood medicine on the market that can claim absolute freedom from minerals in any form. This great medicine is the product of nature’s forests and fields, and is made from the healing, cleansing juices and extracts of roots, herbs and barks. It is, therefore, in addition to being a certain cure for blood troubles, an absolute^ - safe medicine for young or old. It is not an experiment to use S. S. S.; it is a remedy with a record and oue that has proven its worth and ability by its forty years of cures. If you need a blood remedy begin the use of S. S.

"WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S— Conference reports were agreed to by the House today on rivers and harbors appropria tion bill, and the criminal appeals bill. The House concurred in the Senate amendment in the army bill providing for the retirement of certain brigadier generals who set-ved in the Civil War with the rank of major general. The President returned to the House without his approval a bill for the re lief of J. W. Bauer and others grow ing out of their failure to make re turns for special tax as retail duties on oleomargarine. The House adopted the conference report on the naval appropriation bill, with the single exception of the amend ment relating to the naval training sta tion at Port Royal. S. C.

The negro fireman claims there was plenty of water in the boiler at the time, but the fact that the explosion oecurr- . shortly after the pump was started leads to the belief that the water was too low. The boiler, with the engine attached, was blown 150 feet and passed over the fireman’s head without injuring him. Found at Last. J. A.
