NO MONEY IN PRAYING.
Preacher Arney Decides to Give Up the
Pulpit for the Race Track.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, April &c. REV. j.
w. Arney, pastor OF the Methodist church
at Ssranac, has shocked his congregation
by announcing his retirement from the
pulpit. His resignation takes immediate
effect, and many OF the church members
wept when they learned it. Rev Mr.
Arney will devote his entire attention to
breeding and training his horses and will
indulge in horse trots and malinees to
his hearts content without fear Of the
Methodist conference.
Twice he has been on the carpet before
the conference for his horsy inclination
In 1890 he was scored for officiating as
master Of ceremonies ut n speeder's mat
inee, and again last year he was rebuked
The fact that he conducted successful re
vivals, and that his collections were far
above the average, did not extenuate his
offense; he was given to understand that,
II he he persisted In cultivating horses, he
must retire.
There Is more money In horse trading
than in preaching, aud. as he has large
family 10 support, he gives up the church.
He will hOid reyivals in the winter, and
they viii rci interfere with his horses.
