Thursday morning an old and re- spectable negro “aunty,” neatly dressed ard in every particular one of the most respected of her race, “an old-time darky” walked timidly into the Ledger office and asked for ‘Baptist Church is Now United in One Great Body Culminating in a remarkable dis- play of enthusiasm and good-fellow- ship had which blotted out sectional lines, buried deeply the negro ques- tion and obliterated completely the memories of events before the war, Northern Baptists and Southern Baptists, formally united in one great body yesterday.

On being taken to, Mr. White she handed him a small pack- age wrapped in a newspaper yellow with age and pinned together, ask- ing him to publish this “if yo please sah.” On opening the paper two pieces of old writing paper were found with the following remarks of respect to W. H. French from his former slave: A tribute of affection and respect to Mr. Willian French. As one of the former servants of Mr. William French I feel on my own behalf as well as the rest of them to testify in this humble manner and to show our appreciation of his kind- ness to each and all my sisters of us, and mother in providing for us a home and helping ua {n many ways to get along in this world. Since by the fortunes of the late Civil War, we are emancipated, Mr. French has never ceased to look after us and to do for usthose things that were necessary for us to make an honest living and to be respected by all who knew us, and I feel es- pecially grateful and to express It that he, as well as my former and present mistress, were 80 good tu me and proven it by giving me a home with at least $1000, so that my last days might never be troubled by fear of want, but on the contrary might be peace and contentinent, and no fear that I might ever be without a home.

Guthrie, Ok., May 20.—Oklaboma farmers will not be able to buy bind- {ng twine at reduced prices from the Kansas penitentiary theyear. Last year, because of the fact that Okla- homa convicts were employed in the twine plant, twine was sold in Okla- homa ata reduction of from five to aix cents below the retail market prices. The president of the board of prison managers of the Kansas penitentiary notified the secretary of Oklahoma board of agriculture abuut two months ago that, Okla- homa would be allowed the usual re- duction and that it would be un- necessary to send arepresentative to attend the meeting of the board. Since that time the warden of the penitentiary has informed Secretary Thoburn that there would be no Kansas twine for sale in Oklahoma or Indian territory this year. We want to heartily thank the business people of Butler for the nice little donation they gave us for re- pair work on the Holiness Chapel on Mechanic etreet. I can assure you asa people it will be used for the Glory of God and His cause. Also some personal friend helped us. Every body is cordially invited to attend our services every Sabbath, bible reading 10 a. m.; preaching at lla. m.and8p. m. Friday even- {ng prayer meeting. Every one come. R. A.

Gentry has appointed Miss Harriett Crabtree of this city sponsor for the Creek and Seminole brigade of ex-confederate veterans at the reanfon at Louisville in July. Miss Crabtree is an Indian girl. - Dragged a Kansan a Mile. Lawrence, Kan., May 20.—Ganin Allen, a farmer in the southern part of Leavenworth county, was killed in a runaway accident last night. He was dragged nearly a mile before the horees were stopped. I A or into 14 battle at Fort Reno this morning, Lieutenant G. L. Chapman of the Twenty-fifth infantry, adjutant of the post, was killed with a shot through the body. His fellow officers are grief stricken by the occurance. The cause assigned is that of an ac- cident, but cartridges are not used in these ex- ercises, the suspicion is manifested that some one in the ranks with a grudge against the young officer used the occasion to eatisfy his re- sentment. A cureful inquiry into the as well as a cure. the General Convention of Baptiste of North America, members of the denomination from the North, South, East and West, from Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines, Canada and the missionary territories of Mexico and Central America are now welded together in one working boby. The action of the National Conven- tion of Baptiste did not have the ef- fect of abolishing the Northern and Southern churches. They still will continue along their special lines of work, Their missionary boards and othertvhurch organizations will not be consolidated, but while acting in- dependently will work along thesame lines and with a common purpose. At the cession the hopes of years and the labors of dozens of men on both sides of Mason and Dixon’s line were brought to aclose. The report of the Committee of Nine, which car- ried the new constitution, was adopt- ed unanimously, amid most inspiring scenes and the climax of the conven- tion came when a great “aye” rolled up upon the motion to adopt the re- port, The officers of the new organiza- tion were chosen just before the ad- journment in the afternoon. Mis- souri was again signally honored by the selection of E, W. Stephens, of Columbia, us the first president of the reunited denomination. Released the Wrong Man. Hutchinson, Kan.,May 20.—Daniel Bart man, confined in the county jail on the charge of selling liquor at Sylvia, got out of jail and out of the county in an unusual way today. T. Baugher, who had been held for horse-stealing, had his case settled and a release was issued by thecourt and delivered to Turnkey Harry Hooper. Hooper went to the cage and called for Baugher and not knowing him very well, did not recognize Bartman, who said he was the man. Bartman got away and Baugher was released later when it was found that the wrong man had been let out. It was not suspected at the time of the delivery that the wrong man had been released.
