DIXON VS.. lNGERSOLL.
THESE TWO NOTABEES EX-
CHANGE LIVELY COMPLIMENTS.

Mr.. Dixon Declines to Speak In Any
Building Rented for ingersoll's Lee
tures Unless Thoroughly risinfected.
1t is reported in New York that certain
clerical gentlemen who differ froufs Colo
mel Robert G. Ingersoll have entered into
an agreement not to speak in any build
ing which has been or is to be rented to
the infidel
Although be will not admit it, there
seems to be a suspicion that the Rev. A.
G.. Dixon, the well known and eloquent
Baptist revivalist of Brooklyn, is at the
bottom of this alleged plan. There are
circumstances which seem to lend color
to the rumor.
| For the last six weeks Mr.. Dixon has
| been holding services each Sunday after
noon in the Academy Of Music He had
| a contract with the management of the
academy for six weeks, and, it is said,
was about to renew the lease last Thurs
| day, when he ehanced to see an an
nouncernent to the effect that Colonel
| Ingersoll was TO deliver a lecture at the
academy ON the evening of Sunday, Feb
ruary II.
Mr.. Dixon, as the story goes, went to
Manager Vandusen and lodged a protest.
The manager responded that the Academy
OF Music was a public building and that
| it was conducted on business principles
The only way to keep Colonel Ingersoll
out, he suggested, would be for Mr..
Dixon to purchase the building or take
ont a lease for a term OF years.
II
rogated, the preacher refusing to hold
any further services in the academy.
Colonel Ingersoll is inclined to be a bit
angry, which is contrary to his usual
custom.
Mr.. Dixon, when seen, said: ut is not
really true that / refused the academy
and discontinued the services there be-
cause the place had been rented to Mr..
Ingersoll. / would be perfectly willing
to speak in the same building rented by
him proyided / was given a proper a
| nsounts6 time to thoroughly disinfect it.
II have no enmity for Colonel Inger-
soil. Neither have / respect. / have
certain compassion; that is all.
''Some time ago / spoke into a phono-
graph and said that he was paid to pol
lute the morals Of the rising generation
I said this because of his supposed con-
nection with the publishers Of obscene
literature, who had engaged him, | un-
derstood, to aid them in the enactment
OF legislation which would enable those
vendors of vicious books and pictures to
ply their unclean business without viola
ting the postal laws.
This remark of mine was printed, and
Colonel Ingersoll brought $4,000 libel
suit against me- / went to an expense of
over $1,000 to thoroughly investigate the
mans character, and think | know all
about him from his boyhood up TO the

emy OF Music for a greater period of time
is because / have taken the American

II do not wonder that Mr.. Dixon OBJ
iects to speaking in a theatre in which
am to speak. He is probably afraid that
good sense is catching. An idea might
force it's way into his brain and then
he might stop preaching and go to think
ing. His refusal to make his customa ~
noise in the academy because am to
speak there is laughable. The poor man
has to live in the same city that I do;
in the same world, breathe the same air,
feel the same cold and see the same
snow. And how he must suffer! His
God ought to give him little world just
for himself. Now, he is in danger of
meeting other men-in danger of being
corrupted by reason, by logic and demon
stration. am willing to speak in a build
ing that he has preached in. / am not
afraid. / have no pious malice; no saint
ly hatred; no Christian spite. But, then,
have never been converted; never lost
my love for fairness or my natural gen.
erosity.
Poor Dixon! pity him He has plen-
ty OF pity, but he lacks good sense; good
manners. r. G. INGERSOLL."
Replying to Mr.. Dixon's other remarks,
Mr.. Ingerson said:
''The good gentleman need not fear that
am about to join his church. When he
says that am edging toward the church
because OF certain statements attributed
to me regarding a church in Michigan he
gives himself unnecessary alarm. The
church to which he probably refers is In
Kalamazoo, and it has no creed other
than "love your fellowman." I did say
that would willingly join such a church,
and repeat the statement. AS to his
personalities, l have nothing wahtever to

TRAINING FOR MOTHERS.
The final paper of the morning was
mad by Mrs. Sallie A. Cotton, Of Falk-
lind. n. c., on "A National Training
School for Women" In her address
Mrs. Cotton said in part:
Scientific motherhood means more
than a casual thought can grasp. 1t
means a gramder, nobler race, an altruist-
ic humanity, which shall fit the earth for
the Savior's advent. 1t means the re-
formation OF the dr,Inkard, the redemp-
sion of the criminal, the repentance OF
the murderer the abolition Of asylums
for the blind. dumb and insane. 1t means
the elimination of selfshness, the death
Of oppression, the birth OF br0therly love,
the uplifting of mankind through true
spiritual Christianity, and the control OF
hereditary weakness Of mind and of
body, all by prenatal influences.
1.-THE blessed results will not come In
day, nor a year-perhape not fully In
century--but the sooner the FIRST effort
10 made toward it the sooner will its
full accomplishment be reached. Oliver
Wendell Holmes said truly that the time
10 begin to train child is one hundred
years before it is born, and now lis not
300 soon to begin to conquer the evils
which fiji the earth.
II Is evident that woman's most inn
perative duty to the government under
which she lives is to supply a population
composed Of the highest types OF men
and women, and it is equally evident
that scientific motherhood is necessary
10 the proper performance Of this duty.
But all duty is reciprocal, and II lis the
duty Of the government, which seeks the
welfare of It's people, to offer to its wo-
men an opportunity for the attainment
