The Bapt's.s of Helena VIII II. tain The
Hard Working Pastor

The Bapt's.s of Helena VIII II. tain Their
Hard Working Pastor.
On Wednesday evening, Nov. 16, Rev. G.
b. Allen. Jr., pastor of the Baptist church
in this city, gave his people his resigna-
ton, to take effect Dec. 15. On the Sunday
following, he church by unanimous vote
to him the hearty protest of the member
ship in the following paper:
"We very much regret that for any rea-
son our beloved pastor should have prof
fered his resignation rs we feel sure that
no member of the church shares in his
opinion that his work here is done. The
church has greatly prospered under his
leadership. Financially he has led us to do
wonderful work. The debt (S7.7o0) which
hung over US like cloud, when he came to
us, is paid, and in addition we have
changed from the attitude of beneficiary to
that of benefactor toward the same. beside
the numerous gifts and other services rem
dered to other interests in our Masters
cause i'll Montana and elsewhere.
"We attribute this good result to the wise
and energetic under shepherd who, while
having directly little to do with church
finances, has skillfully touched and en-
thused that part of the membership by
whom this work has been done. Socially
the church has gained immeasut ably with
tne popu people OF the com unity, 80 that
to-day we are accorded the highest respect
by Christian people and others throughout
the state. Spiritually we have been
advanced even more remarkably than in
either of the lines already mentioned.
and for this we arc deeply grateful to Bro
ther Allen and to the holy spirit who has
led him in and out before us for seven
years. We recognize in Rev. G. b. Allen,
Jr., Il character that e1emplifes the gospel
which he breaches SO we'll. We realize, too.
that he is a student and that he ia i'll con-
stant communication with the Father in
his preparation to come before the people
with his word OF life. Every sermon
evinces this fact; every prayer and praise
service attests this truth.
We are therefore very desirous to retain
his services to this city and to our great
state and to this end earnestly ask that he
reconsider the matter of his resignation. -
| Last evening Mr.. Allen thanked the
church heartily for this most tiattering
| expression, and though he had determined
to give W. the charge, he WAS induced by
| the unanimous vote to recall his resicna-
tion, and will remain in Helena.

CHICAGO. Nov. 23.-Wm. G. Lincoln, ex-
member OF tho board of trade. who is a
juror in special assessment suit for build
ing large sewer, to cost nearly million
dollars, was charged in open court this
morning with attempting to secure bribea
from both property owners and the city. The
matter caused sensation. This morning
Attorney Walker stated TO the court that
he had reliable information that some
sewer contractors, who had the promise OF
a contract, had succeeded in getting four
men on the jury. Attorney Kellogg said in
riding down in an elevator with Juror Ed
ward Wood, the latter said. You attorneys
are getting big money out of thia case, and
we jurors are only getting 81 per day."
The court ordered the members of the jury
before him. one by one. In the investiga-
ton that ensued Z. Fl. Andrews, juror,
admitted that he had tried to raise money,
and said Juror Van Allen had also. Van
Allen denied the truth Of the statement.
Lincoln was sentenced to one years i'm
prisonment in the county Jail for contempt
of court. The jurors contempt lay in the
fact that he made no less than half q dozen
attempts to obtain bribe from attorneys
on both sides of the cnse. The court also
discharged the remainder of the jury from
further duty. Lincoln admitted having
tried to obtain bride money, but said he
hadn't suspicion of doing anything
wrong
