The (Jreensboro officer called up Chief of Police Thomss snd. after securing description of Lee, ststed that he was the negro wanted.

The colored waiter was escorted to the city lock up. According to the story related by the Oreensboro chief.

It Is hoped that the cooler heads will be able to, con trol matters and bring order oat ot Chaos. A number ot fires belUvsd to be of Incendiary Origin have oc curred In the town recently, among them the burning of the dispensary. There are Intimations that the dis pensary faction had something 'to do with some of these fires, wTiile rumors of this kind are said to be met wun threats on the part of the dispinsa ry side that anybody who makes such an Insinuation will be shot, it is re ported thst Shortly after the dlspen sary fire, dispensary goods wera be ing freely sold as tiger stock.

PROTEST AGAINST BANKS' AC TION. The Jobbers and other business ln-i erests of the city held an indigna tion meeting at 4 o'clock this after noon to protest sgainst the action of the Columbia banks, In entering nto an agreement effective January 1. wTiereby they have agreed to charge their customers, regardless of he slses of their deposits, for the collection of checks and drafts on out-of-town points. The rate agreed upon by tho banks Is IS cents on checks for 125 and under, and graduated charge for larger amounts, the same as to drafts. Sev eral htiHlness houses have protested hat this will result In their hanking ostlng them from S0 to 1100 a month more, and they are threatening transfer their deposits to Atlanta, Augusta. Charlotte and Baltimore. They contend that the action of the banks Is Injurious to the business In- ere.it of the city. The banks on tne ther hand contend that they have ollowcd the example of Charlotte, 'harleston, Augusta and other towns of Columbia's size, and are doing so In self-defense lo offset the cost of ollectlng from outside points. The meeting of the Jobbers and other business men this afternoon, to protest against the proposed charges of tho new clearing house association, wss well attended and thoroughly representative, but good feeling pre vailed. The sense of the meeting seemed to be that the banks should make some charges to cover cost of these collections, but It was unani mously held that the proposed rates are entirely too high, and resolutions to this effect were adopted, ana placed In the hands of the following committee to serve on the clearing house association: W. J. Murray, E. M Dupree. J. II Weill, A. M. Ulbbes, li A. tiulgnnrd The tire depart meiits of only four towns so far have compiled with the law passed y t.ie last legislature giving them : per cent, for a widows' and orphans' fund, of the gross fire premiums collected In their respect ive towns. Comptroller General Jones said to-day that unless others qualify before January they will un der no circumstances get any such money; that the 2 per cent, cannot be collected In such towns falling, and. no has no authority to extend the lime. The towns that have complied witn Cue cost of the sppartus they operate are: Charleston. t$."8,28; Darlington. lis. 100: Spartanburg 112,200; Greenville, 17,541. ANOTHER DIWAPPKARANCB. The Columbia police have another disappearance mystery on their hands, with anotner broken-hearted young wife to listen to. This time the man Is a young printer named L. F. Kvans. who has been working as a theatre attache recently. He has not been seen since Monday, when he disappeared with u large quantity of morphine. Intimating, when lsst seen, tnat he Intended to suicide. He-leaves a bride of only four weeks. ' His clothing wss found to-day on the banks of the canal, but so far there Is no other clue. Mr. Kvnns came here about two years ago from Greensboro. N. C. and, up to u, recent period had been work ing for The Htate newspuper. He was a well-behaved young man. and was not known ss a drinker. His health has been falling recently and he was known to be very despondent on this account. His bride was Miss Myrtle Pennington, of the sales department of Tupp's department store. She Is a deserving young woman and, great svmiutthv Is felt for her. ' Mr. James U.

Mat thew xxvlll, When the feci Is nan of Charles Dickens dropped from his hand In the midst of the .writing of his "Mystery oi Qwin urooa," a sensation oi re Rret was felt by his admirers that he ad left a story half-told. And the evangelists laid down their pens' be fore narrating the resurrection, It would- not have been a passng sensa tlon of regret,, but the universal hu man heart would have been' torn asunder between faith and doubt There Is so much upon the sacred page to .indicate Divinity, but the glorious seal to it would be lacking, The unfinished Mystery of Jesus Christ wouie nave plunged each succeeding generation or readers into gner ana despair. The lament of the .disciples on ths way to Kmmaus would have besn the eWorld's refrain: "We thought It had been. He who should have redeemed us. But how can an unrlsen Savior save?" With loy and confidence ws turn then to the fourfold narrative of the resurrection. No unfinished mystery is here. That last event essential to the symmetry of the Divine Person Is told i with Incontestable truth. Each evangelist, from tola own point of view, narrates the sublime event independ ently of the rest. What one lacks, the ethers supply. Each gives some minor touch -caught upon the sensitive plate of - his own Individuality. So from the four pencils groweth the ov erliving picture of the soul the ris ing Christ! From the four Gospels the circumstantial evidences of 'the ressurectlon ef Jesus may be gleaned and arranged as follows: Reality of Jesus' Death. .Insured by (1) Discipline of Roman soldiers. (J) Malice of enemies. (I) Centurion's report. Hence the reappearance of Jesus not the result of recovery from woon. II. Jesus' Tomb Empty on Third Day. Fact admitted by friend and foe. Mistake Impossible; one body only in tomb. (1) Body not taken by enemies. No object in removing It, or could have refuted story of resurrection by producing body. (2) Body not taken by friends. Proved by their transparent Ingenu ousness. (t)Body could not have been taken by any one. l) Because of discipline of Ro man soldiers. (b) Because of position of grave cloths. Q. B. D. Christ asr.se of His own will and power. No event of human history Is more completely verified, more lncontest ably suthenclated. than the resurrec tion of Jesus - from the tomb of Jqseph of Arlmathea, in the garden near Calvary. If that' circumstance, as related by the evangelists, can be Impeached, then any page of history can be Impeached by the same meth ods. In this circumstantial narrative full of Incidents that at first glance seem trivial, but soon appear each In proper place an Irrefragable-Jink In the mightiest chain of evidence ever forged. It is as If ons hear the Mast er's voice to Hie deebtlng "-disciples In each feneration: "Reach hither thy finger, and behold My hands: end reaVh hither thy hand, and thrust it Into My side, and be not faithless, but believing." KEY AND ANALYSIS. 1. If Christ had not risen: Seal to His Divinity would be lacking His story would have been unfin ished. Universal human heart torn between faith and doubt. 2. Christ is Risen! Twofold narrative. S. The Irrefragable chain of evidence. i. The last event essential to the sym . metry of the Divine person historic ally verified. THK TEACHERS LANTERN. The absolute Ingenuousness of the apostolic company is manifest in the woman's errand. They were no party to the opening of ths tomb or removal of the body. What they had in their hands was striking snd .material testi mony of their unfeigned openness. They csme to minister to the dead, complete embalmment. Their per plexity and grief at finding the tomb apparently rifled completes the evi dence of their candor and truth. The vldence of the Ingenuousness of the irpostles themselves Is equally strong. The women's report seemed Idle talk. They are not Inclined to receive It; rather ths contrary. In the Illon of woes attendant upon te crucifixion they had forgotten Jesiis' assursnce that Hs would rise the third day, If remembered, a spiritual significance was attached to It. . Here was no hasty and credulous accept ance of un agreeable, hypothesis. It required repeated assurances, under ths greatest possible variety of con dltons, to establish the fact of the resurrection in the apostles' minds. . f The testimony of ' such witnesses. of the record in form, the authentic ity and genuineness of which Is unim peachable, has had ' overwhelming weight Ineach generation and as wide ly as publlhed. .; e Ths resurrection of Jesus is ths con fessed corner-stone of the Christian system- If He bo not risen, It Is built upon a lis: fnf.h Is vain; apostles are, false witnesses'; spiritual resurrection of the soul from the desdness of sin Is anvHIuslon; ths resurrection of the body a mockery; those who died in the false hope are annihilated- a . e . - , , , v v ' "But!" thank God for that strong and Inspired adversative of the master j logician!'
