But while he is a versatile man and active in many directions, the prin cipal field of his energy and power is the Baptist Tabernacle, of which, from its organization twenty-three years ago, he has been the leading spirit. Hon. Jno. C. Scarborough has de voted his life to educational work. No o ther man has held the office of superin tendent of public instruction as long as he.

Though past his three score years and ten he is a pillar in his "church, and superintendent of the Sun day school..

He is Jv little over W years Of age and is still in the fulness of his powers. . . R. H. Marsh, D. D., is a striking fig ure anywhere.

Carter, pastor of the old First church, Raleigh, is a native of West Virginia He JLs. what his ap pearance indicates, a boanerges, wheth er in the pulpit or on the platform. Those who hear him once will want to hear him again, and of ten. $ Dr, Thoa E. Skinner, of Raleigh, Is now on the retired fist. Having filled a large measure of activity and use fulness in Tennessee and Georgia as w;ell as his native state, he is illustrat ing the sweetness and light of a con secrated old age. The North Carolina Baptists should hold him in everlasting remembrance. : Dr. Sims, of the Tabernacle, Raleigh, came to that city from Texas. He brings with him the vigor and enthu siasm of the southwest and is rapidly building the Tabernacle into one Of the greatest churches in the state. He is an able preacher, but his greatest strength is as a master of assemblies. Dr. R. T. Vann, of Scotland Neck, is by common consent, one of the most delightful preachers and one of the choicest spirits in the denomination. An Incident In boyhood deprived him of both hands; but he is an expert fisher man and a good shot in the hunting field. ' Dr. Jno.

Richardson, of High Point, Will hardly be heard from on the floor of the convention, though he is one of the strongest men in the body. Tt. L. Patton, of Morgan ton, is a sin gularly bright and versatile man. Few men have done so many things, or done them all so well. Charlotte will send a strong ministe rial force. Dr. A. C. Baum comes from Baltimore as the successor of the late Dr. Pritchard in the Tryon Street church. He brought a good reputa tion, and, though new to the state, he is rapidly taking holdL of the hearts of his brethren. Pruitt and Hankins are young men who are building up new churches in the city. John E. Wnite is the successor of the late Dr. C. Durham as missionary secretary of the Baptist state conven tion. It is not an easy place to fill and some feared for him when he entered it. But he is filling it and is infusling new life into every department of. his work. C. A. G. Thomas, of Fayetteville, stands in the front rank of the younger ministers in the state. He came to us from Portsmouth, Va., of which icity he is a native. A fearless and earnest man, a clear and vigorous preacher, an industrious pastor and a forcible writer, he makes his mark wherever he goes. Dr. Thos. Hume, of the state uniyer- sity well, is is needless to say any thing of him. Everybody knows him. J. Q. Adams, of Wedesboro, is a na tive of South Carolina. He Is an ex cellent preacher, but he is peculiarly gif ted as an organizer and manager Of men, . Dr. W. H. Felix, of Asheville, will be sure to attract attention.

Webb, of Shelby, pioneer and church builder, does not speak much, but in hard and successful work on difficult fields he has few superiors. L. Johnston,, of Greensboro, fs one of the best of the younger pastors among the Baptists. He brought the prestige of success, with him to his present field and it has not forsaken him there. W. B. Morton, of Roxboro, is a wise man With staying qualities. He was pastor eight or nine years at Weldon and, afterwards, almost as long at Louisburg before "going to his present field. " t C W. Scarborough, of Murfreesboro, has charge of large country churches and is quietly filling up. a large meas ure of usefulness. j Dr. W. R. Gwaltney, of Wake Forest, as pastor i of the college church is crowning a long and fruitful ministry. His name will be long and lovingly re membered in Hillsboro, Chapel Hill, Mocksville, Winston, Raleigh and Greensboro. The houses 'of worship in the four places last named are due to; his wisdom and energy. L. M. Curtis, of Aulander, is a study ing, earnest, thoughtful man. He is one of the most laborious and success ful country pastors among the North Carolina Baptists. ..--?" G. L. Finch, of Williamston, is. a young man. He has already done great things and there are greater things yet to come from his tireless and well " di rected energy. The Baptists of Edenton are not easy to please, but they are delighted with their: young pastor, Watson. C. Tyree, of the First church, Dur- .ham, is one of the best 'gifts of Vir ginia to her sister state. As pastor and preacher he stands in the foremost rank of the North Carolina ministry- G. H. Church, of Statesville,! is a man of many striking qualities. His pas torate in that place has been successful from the first. The iGOldsboro Baptists will proudly send their pastor, Jas. Long, to repre sent them in the convention. Hight C. Moore, of Monroe, besides filling the demands of an exasting pastorate, finds time to write poetry and do a large amount of literary journalistic work. He is a young man with a future. No man will be more cordially greet ed by his brethren than. Josiah Elliott, of Hertford. His name does not often appear in the newspapers, but few men of any denomination in the state are doing a larger or better work. W.- O. Alderman, in spite of ill health.-.is achieving good success at Washington. - These men and others equally worthy the North Carolina Baptists will prob- ablv send to represent them in the great assembly in Wilmington.
