Assurances have reached the State De- partment to the effect that tranquility pre- vails in Bluefields; that martial law has been revoked, and that the entire Mosquito reservation is now under the constitutional law of Nicaragua. If these assurances are well founded it may fairly be assumed that the vexatious Mosquito question has been settled for good unless the Nicaraguan agent, who has gone to London to nego- tiate a new treaty with Great Britain, whereby the latter will content to recog- nize Nicaragua’s supremacy in the Mos- quito reserve, meets with unexpected ob- Stacles. There may remain some questions to be adjusted between the United States and Nicaragua growing out of claims of American citizens for damages sustained from legal arrest and selzure of property, but little difficulty is expected in adjusting these matters. u versity, Baltimore; Balumore City College, Baltimore; St. John’s College, Annapolis; Washington College, Chestertown; Western Maryland College, Westminster, and Mary- land Agricultural College, College Park, will this fall compete for the foot ball cham- pionship of Maryland and a prize.

Geriah Lamkins, pastor of Salen: Baptist Church, Champlain avenue north- west, has just returned from Montgomery, Ala., where he has been for the past ten days, attending the national Baptist annt- versaries, which were held in the First Colored Baptist Church im that city. He expressed himself as being highly delight- ed with his trip, notwithstanding the ses- sions, he said, were the most stormy in the history of the convention, owing to the interjection of some state troubles from Tennessee, growing out of the split of the Spruce Street Baptist Church of Nash- ville, one of the finest and best churches in the state, of which Rev. J. E. Purdy, late of this city, was pastor. The church Property was destroyed by fire about the time of the trouble, and the insurance of $20,000 will be paid to that faction of the church that can show the better right to the money. The Purdy faction was turn- ed down twice in the convention, but was seated on a third effort by the ald of 105 delegates from Texas, who stood by them first, last and all the time. The Purdy det a technical point <—~y in the comet ition, which said that any regular Baptist church or any person of Baptist proclivities might be received as an annual member by the payment of one dollar. The Purdy fac- tion was seated upon the ground that if not regular, they were of Baptist proclivi- The other faction claimed to be the old church, and was already in the con- vention. The seating of Purdy did not set- Ue the matter, for the whole question was remanded to the state for settlement,which, however, was claimed as a victory by the Purdy faction, as it put them on equal footing in the courts with the other side, ad the case is being tried for the $20,- The following from this city attended the meetings: Rev.
