."6ENESIS AND GEOLOGY"
Professor Cummins Says There Is
No Conflict.

At the Trinity Methodist church
last night Prof. Cummtns, assistant
state geologist of Texas, spoke to the
subject "Genesis and Geology The
professor held the attention of large
audience in which men predominated.
The speaker toOk the position that
there il no conflict between the science
of geology and the first chapters of the
book of Genesis. ''The man that af-
firms," said he. "thst any conflict
exists between the two accounts az
firms the fact of bis own ignorance on
one or both sides of the question.
There is no conflict and hence no nee
essity for reconciliation"
After general outline of the
scieoce of geology as it stands today,
the speaker proceeded to dispose of
ed his audience to admit to begin with
that they might be wrong, and then he
endeavored to know that the wording
of the bible did not necessarily con-
fict with the conclusions of geology.
s'Wait till the facts are all in before
you draw your conclusions" said he.
Geology is young yet-a hundred
years or so measures it's existence as q
science. Here in the bible we have a
record, indefinite in many details. but
final Believe me, it will one day be
found thai every fact stated in this
book will be but substantiated and IL
Illuminated by the discoveries of geo
logy and all the rest of the natural
sciences.
"The first alleged conflict is in the
matter of the time that has elapsed
since the beginning of the world. The
popular notion is that creation took
place in six days of twenty four hours
each. Now say that the word day,
as shown by the context and de-
monstrated by science: must have
meant only q period of time indefinite
in duration.
Geology says long time elapsed
during each of these mighty periods
of creation, but as for the number of
years or centuries that elapsed, science
knows nothing. Now it is impossible
and absurd to claim that two indefinite
numbers can produce any conflict With
each other. There is no reason why
the days of the bible should not be
Identical with the ages of geology.
"The six days of creation are past.
Science and the bible agree here. The
present age, the quaternary-whyn not
call this the seventh day? God rest
ed the seventh day'-he Is resting yet
from creation. When shall the sew
euth day end? We know not. We
are told that after q while God will
create q new heaven and new earth.
When or where or how we do not
know"

Tobacco An Example.
named.

(J. Is. in Southern Tobacco Reporter)
No argument is so convincing as
tho bare recital of the relative finnn-
clal condition OF the cotton planter
of the South. Tho latter never
makes tobacco his principal cror,. 1t
IS subsidiary to all othor crops. If
he plants for acres in tobacco he
will most generally plant Is acres in
corn, ~ acres in wheat, NOW five
acres of hay, besides growing d lib.
eral supply Of potatoes, fruits and
garden vegetables His tobacco
crop ls thus an extra crop, upon
which he does not rely for support.
Whatever money he may realize
from it is in Il manner clear gain.
In those regions in the South whel
tobacco is thus grown there is the
greatest agricultural prosperity. The
farms are kept in good condition.
There are but few for sale There
are no mortgages on them. Many
Of the farmers have money loaned
out. 1t is repntcd as fact that in
the county Of Robertson, in tho State
of Tennessee, one Of the largest to-
bacco- growing counties in the South,
there is more ready cash among the
farmers, more money loaned out by
them than in another county of
equal farming population in tie
South. This state of prosperity
may also be seen in North Carolina
and kentucky, and wherever the
tobacco crop is made one Of the
crops upon tho farm, and not the
sole crop

ground that it would jcoparllze his

appointed to take the testimony and
it was even said by Tolbcrt's side
that ho had been threatened. The
hearing was accordingly postponed
on the advice Of Tolbcrts attorney.
These alleged threats are hooted

Joe Tolbert stated that he was not
in Greenwood on business connected
with his brothers contest and hence
it will be oontendcd that the threats
against him, If there were such, could
have no bearing upon the contest.
Joe Tolbcrt went to Greenwood pre-
sumably to look after business in-
terosts in that county and to visit
his farm but ho returned to Charles
