THE MEETING CLOSED,
One ot the Bes! Ever "Held in Green-
vulle.
On Monday, May 17th, Rev. P. G.
Elsom, of Danville, Va., came to
Greenville to conduct a series ot meet~
ings iu the Baptist church. For ten
days he held two services each day in
the church, at 4 and 8 P, M., and cote
tage prayer meetings were held each
morning in some home. . The very first
day of the meeting Rev, A. W. Setzer,
pastor of the church, was taken sick
and was only able to get out at the last
dayTs services. Rev. N. M. Watson,
pastor of the Methodost church, went
to the aid of Mr. Elsom and stood faith{
fully by him through the entire meet-
ing.
We do ~not belicve a meeting was
ever held here that resulted in more
igood than this meeting. Mr. Elsom
i3a man filled with the Holy Spint
and he preaches with power. He is a
man who fears not to cozrdemn sin in
all its forms. He spoke plainly and
fearlessly. As might have been ex-
pected there ure some who took excep.
tion at his bold denunciation of sin, but
with the masses his utterances were
approved. A preacher who offends no
He is your
best friend who tells you of your
sins and begs you to turn from them.
one accomplishes no good,
did not please all to whom he spoke,
and such opposition arose that He was
crucified, yet the great truths He ut-
~tered will live on forever. A man las
to be told of his sin to see the error ot
his way.
Mr. ElsomTs plain preaching here
did great good, and we believe its in-
fluence will goon for years to come.
Great crowds of people heard him
every night. Many have been lod to
forsake their sins, and impressions have
been made on others which cannot be
blotted out.
The meeting closed Thursday night,
and the last day was the beet. It was
an impressive scene to see the throng
ot converts standing arouad the pulpit
to listen toa brief admonitation from
Mr. Elsom.
The visible results of the meeting are
{that more than fitty people have been
converted,many backsliders havebcen re-
claimed,the different churches have been
drawn, closer together in Christian love
~tand unity, the faith and zeal of every
Christian has keen strengthened, and
a lasting impression for good has been
made upen the community.
Mr. Elsom lett with the prayers of
the peoole for GodTs blessing to con-
tinue with him, end they would rejorce
for him to return here at some future
day. ; 3

game. Hurst became incensed and
struck one of the crowd and was im-

A colored man writes a long
letter to Superintendent of Pub-
lic Instruction Mebane, complain-
ing that the new school law takes
from the colored people the con-
trol of the:schools for their own
~race, which privilege they enjoy-
~ei under a former law. Without
opassing upon the wisdom of al-
lowing colored people to control
~their own schools, it should be
remarked that the law granting
them this privilege, which the
writer referred to says isa oprice-
loss heritage,� was passed by a
Democratic Legislature and was
kept in force daring the Demo-
clatic administration of the Siate
government. [t remained for a
Republican and Populst Legisla-
ture and State administratian, for
which these colored people voted
almost to a man, to take away
from them this opriceless heri:-
aze."Statesville Landmark.
The news coiumas of this paper
tell of a minister of the gospel
who was robbed while on a
drunken spree in Charlotte, and
of another who has just been
acqultted in the courts of a seri-
ous crime. There are those who
will lose much confidence and
respect fer the entire ministry on
account of these two incidents.
without ever stopping to think of
the thousonde of consecrated fol-
lowers of the Master who are
living lives of self denial and
martyrdom in order taat they may
carry His gospel to dying men.
It is frequently said, and all of us
are more or less guilty of harbor-
iag the suspicion: that al! minis-
ters are prone to accept calls to
charges where the salary is large
and the work is genial. At the
Presbyterian church Sunday
morning the preacher told of a
young minister who had declined
a call of $1,200 and accepted one
of $600 to work in a destitute
region in western North Carolina ;
and not only that, but he offered
to provide an assistant in tho
work and pay him out of his
meager salary of $690. It might
be weil for us to think on these
~things before we condemn all of

parent short comings of a few.":

The European press has paid so
little attention to Cuba and European
governments have macitested eo little
interest in the insurrection, that the
masses across the water really do not
know of the horrors of the situation in
Cuba. Possibly they imagine, and
with reason, that it matters were 80
bad th3 United States would certainly
tuke action, but in this supposition
they pay us an unmerited compliment.
It the great reliet societies in England
and the thousands of humane citizens
in Great Britain knew the exact con-
ditions in Cuba they would not only
raise such a cry as they raised for Ar-
menia, but they would be inexpressibly
shocked at the ssemingly indifferent
attitude of this country for long months
past. The humiliating disclosure ot
the Senate debate ot Wednesday may
open the eyes of the foreign world to
the fearfal situation in the Gem of the
Antilles. The cowardice of this gov-

closed is endugh to bring a blush of
shame to every AmericanTs cheek."
