its future welfare will be watched
with a great deal of Interest and con
cern by the whole church.
It is more than likely that quite a
number of young people in the South
Georgia Conference will avail them
selves of tlie opportunity of taking this
splendid course of study.
The board accepted $16,500 as the as
sessment for foreign missions during
the incoming year.

In opposing the continuance of a

In his characteristic manner. Dr. Mc

Arriving for Conference.
Every incoming train is filled willi
ministers and lay delegates to the con
ference. Although quite a number of
ministers expressed their fears when
Mcßae was selected as the place to
entertain the conference as to her abil
ity to entertain the body, but the ease
—the delight with which the commit
tee on Entertainment are discharging
their duties has been the cause of fav
orable comment among the ministers.
Rev. J. ,E. JWray, who has been
transferred to New Orleans was to
have tilled the pulpit to-night, but ow
ing to a severe sore throat. Rev. J.
M. Outler, has been appointed in his
place. The under graduates are being
examined by the Committee on Ex
aminations. There are about fifty
young preachers in the several classes.
Among the notable visitors to arrive
to-day are, Rev. J. J. Tlgert, D. D.
of Nashville, Tenn., and Rev. Julius

of the Memphis Commercial-Appeal,
said to-night that he would assume
editorial charge of the paper and will
have associated with him United States

torate of the Commercial-Appeal.
OBITUARY.
Madame Jannschek.
New York, Nov. 29.—Mme. Janu
schek, the actress, died to-day in the
Brunswick Home at Amityville, L. I„
where for the past four months she
had been a private patient as a charge
of the Actors’ Fund. Prior to going
to Amityville, Mine. Januschek had
been a guest of the Actors’ Home on
Staten Island.
She had been gradually sinking for
months. Paralysis and general debility
were the immediate causes of death.
She was 74 years old, having been
born in Prague, Bohemia, in 1830. In
1867 she came to the United States and
played Media and other roles in Ger-,
man, and later made a success in
tragic roles in English. She essayed
such parts as Deborah, Bianca, Mary
Stuart, Queen Elizabeth, Lady Mac
beth and Meg Merrilies.
A toentflt performance at Wallack's
Theater, in which many prominent ac
tors and actresses took part on April
12, 1901, netted about $5,000 for her.
In October of last year she sold her
effects, consisting of costumes she had
worn in her former productions. Then
a relief fund was started for her, and
later the Actors' Fund, which had al
ways looked out for her as much as
she would permit, induced her to go
to its home on Staten Island.

Prince Sviatopolk-Mlrsky will have
a special audience of Emperor Nich
olas to-morrow. It is said in court
circles, where the opposition to the
Interior Minister’s policy is the great
est that when the minister reminded

the Emperor gave the minister the
most complete assurances of his con
fidence and indorsement of his policy.

Here’s a Slaughter Sale of Shoes
Which Defies Criticism.
Begins To-day at 10 O’clock.
Our last shoe sale having proved such a tremendous success,
the management has decided to go still further in the matter of
reducing prices, and those capable of judging will recognize the
truth of this statement.
Never before in the history of shoes have there been offered
such bargains as will he presented at this Shoe Carnival. There is
no excuse for one going around poorly “shod” when shoes are
within such easy reach. You will realize this when you see our
offerings.
Those not in need of shoes will be wise to purchase several
pairs as a saving or investment. You do not get rich by earning
money, it is done by saving it; and now is the time to begin if you
have not already done so. This is a flitting opportunity, and you
are standing in your own light if you do not avail yourself of it. It
is worth investigating, at any rate.
Evidences of the Above Are the Following:

203 METER HILL WILL
BE A STRIKING POINT.
London, Nov. 30.—According to a To
kio dispatch to the Standard there is
an unofficial rumor that the Japanese
hauled lurge calibre guns to the top
of 203 Meter Hill, whence their fire
has a sweep of the whole harbor.
This report doubtless goes beyond
the facts, but various dispatches in
dicate the progress the Japanese are
making in tha reduction of Port Ar
thur. Japanese here explain the great
importance of the capture of 203 Me
ter Hill, which, besides giving com
mand of the harbor, will serve as a
wide breach made by the wedge of
the Japanese had previously driven In
between the Etse and the Russians last
retreat in the ravines of Laotie moun
tain. They declare that retreat to La
otie will be effectually cut off and that
it is not unlikely that Laotie will be
simultaneously attacked in the final
assault.

Oberlin, 0., Nov. 30. —A meeting of

R. Randolph made the startling state
ment that the signature on the col

on which Mrs. Chadwick was loaned
money Is not worth a dollar. He said
he had seen the notes and they are
not signed by Andrew Carnegie; that
such a story Is ridiculous. In his opin
ion Mr. Randolph says the signature
does not add a dollar to the value of
the paper.

WHAT IS IN A NAME?
Itemnrknlile Answer Given nt the
Putent Otllee.
From the Washington Poet.
“What's In a name?" might be ask
ed in regard to patentees and their
patents, and receive a very interesting
answer, for the numerous patents
bearing a close relationship to the
names of their patentees would almost
lead one to beitevo that the name us
well as the necessity mothered many
Inventions, though generally "the mind
doth shape Itself to Its own needs.”
A truly remarkable collection of this
nature Is found in the class of fuel,
under the one sub-class of fireklndlers:
Messrs. Burnett. Cordes, Greenwood,
A. Matchet. B. Swift, Wood and
Woodman, and again In animal-traps
we have Messrs. Fox, Hair, Hart, and
Wolf as patentees. Though grass
does not generally need the shelter of
a greenhouse, a Md. Greengrass has
Invented one. What could have sug
gested a bottle-stopper more to Mr.
Augustus Bunker or Mr. Flood than
their names; or a valve to Mr. Cock;
Messrs. Spring and Hour have Im
proved patents on clocks. Mr. Speed
a railway speed recorder. Mr. Goforth
an engine. Mr. Lock a railroad lock,
and Mr. Furnace a steam engine.
A Mr. Carpenter patents a measure,
Mr. Cyphers a set of scales, Mr. Wheat
a plow spring, Mr. Stone a rock drill,
Mr. Graves a shovel, and two by the
name of Hay have Invented, one a
rake and the other a harvester and
thrasher. Messrs. Bean, Pitcher, and
Packer must have been farmers, for
seed-planters from the first hayfork
and hayloaders from the latter two,
come by suggestions from name its well
as need. Who but a Mr. Cannon could
so appropriately Invent a fuse for fire
arms, or Mr. Puff an explosive pro
jectile, Mr. Pierce a lance, or Mr.
Hunt an Improvement In firearms;
though the suitableness of Mr. Peace
inventing a magazine for firearms or
Mr. Dark a trap. Is doubtful.
The anxiety of Mr. Bill can better be
realized when it is known he struggled
to perfect an adding machine and Mr.
Hoard a money-box; it, however, took
a pair to open the way for a collection
box, and Messrs. Church and Chappel
may have had as hard work to achieve
their desire as some workers who en
deavor to put to use such inventions In
places suggested by these Inventors’
names. One can imagine Mr. Chubb’s
disappointment if his fishing reel had
met with an "Interference” In the
Patent Office, or the chill Mr. Close
would have had If his button had not
closed the way for any “Infringements”
or how Mr. Cave would have groped
blindly without his lantern, or the
distress of Messrs. Ash and Cook If
their cooking range and automatic
boiler hail been marked "Imperative,"
or Mr. House If his shingle machine
was "rejected.”
Mr. Faueette, In this Instance, would
not have lost his washing machine,
or Mr. Tubbs his pump, on the plea
of "publk use,” or Mr. Paine because
his dental-plugger "Inflicted cruelty,"
when the poor man may have been
driven to it by the cruelty of his pain.
If Mr. Fillmore had such anxiety as
to the final result of his funnel-filler
that he "filled a caveat," Mr. Coffin
would have entered a "disclaimer.” If
the office had declared his folding bed
stead to have been suggested by his
name, Mr. Pike would not willingly
have "abandoned" his quarts crusher,
and Mr. Holt would have felt the need
of "an appeal" If bis burglar alarm
had beep thrown out.
Mr. Furr's germ destroyer Is redo
lent of Mulphur, camphor, and moth
balls, and Mr. Boomer's pedal for an
organ suggests "The latat Chord." Mr.
Momlngstsr wss so Inipteesed with his
name that he wished to perpetuate it
In a name-plate; Mr. Mafely may have
had uneasy suggestions from his nstne
to have 'abored over a letter box. It
Is seldom thst the Patent office has
the opportunity (u •" singularly ap

ulso reduced for this occasion to

name-day, or that every patentee has
so suitable a birthplace as Mr. J. Bone,
who halls from Marrowbone. 111.
Messrs. Beetle, Partridge. Sparrow,
Crown, Fox atul Hawks are found In
one subclass. In artificial limbs Mr.
Legran has a patent. In a subclass of
hammers are found Messrs. Hammer
and Rammer. Mr. Pinover has a lace
pin, Mr. Oven a bakepan eleaner. Mr.
Head a comb. Mr. Brake brake shoes,
Mr. Shirt a necktie, Mr. Luck a horse
shoe, Mr. Scripture an organ blower,
Mr. Cleanwater a milk receptacle. Mr.
Cram a ballot box and Mr, MeTatn
rnany a vote-counting machine.
The patent office offers very inter
esting study for philoglsts. when the
full names of some of the patentees
come under consideration. Surely par
ents were singularly blind to the "fit
ness of things” when they gave their
helpless offspring such remarkable
names as some signed on patents; as
Lot Person, Ferdinand Bowdow, Isaac
Breastpin and Mlladorc Button. Per
haps Adam Probola was the first child
of his misguided parents; one can Just
hear Mr. Luther Look’s mama coaxing
his Infantile attention, and the cor
dial reception Mr. Welcome White re
ceived on his advent.
Mrfl Justus Ask had very Indulgent
parents, truly, and Mr. Leon Beloud
had more encouragement to make a
noise In the world than most children;
one can imagine the earnest wish of
the mother who called her child Aloln
B. Clever, but Mr. Solomon Bobo’s
first name must have been given to
counteract the effect of the last. Mr.
Homer A. Hero’s parents were no ex
ception to the rule of thinking their
boy was to make his mark In the
world, but what could have been the
Inspiration of Mr. General Com back's
name, or Mr. Preserved Fish!
There were poor crops, probably,
when Mr. Lean Fields Head was chris
tened, while Mr. Abraham Freshflelda
may have seen light first In a more
propitious season, but Mr. Zebu lon
Arastus Coffin seemed bom with at
least one foot In the grave. Surelv
Mr. Fountain Rainwater was one of
twins, and In the excitement of double
good fortune the adage "It never
rains, but pours," was appropriately
ruggestlve. How ambitious Mr. King
Popplewel land Mr. French Queen's
parents must have been, and verily It
