They stand Firm.

There seems to be strong disposition
among three of the leading churches, in
these years of evolution or revolution to
stand by some of the old land marks.
The Southern Baptist Convention pass
ed strong resolutions on the liquor ques-
ton. the General Assembly of the Pres
byterian church has before it a resolu-
tim standing by the Sabbath and the
General Conference of the Methodist
church has a sweeping resolution main
tanning Its old stand ON card playing,
dancing aud theatre going. 1t is en-
couraging to see the church stand firm
ON the things that made our fathers
what they are, even if the state is DIS
posed to wsbble little.

VIII Stay Here.

Rev. G. l.. Price. the excellent young
rector Of Trinity Episcopal church at
this place and also the church at Col
umbus, has received call TO an Episco-
pal charge at Nashville with a salary of
81 200 year and finely furnished par
sonage of nine rooms. But he has de-
clined the offer and remains with his
people here, although realizing that he
has a hard and difficult field to hold in
the two young charges so widely sepa-
rated. Such faithfulness and disintrust-
ed devotion deserves a handsome re-
ward from his people who no doubt APP
preciate Mr.. Price too dearly TO give up.

It seems TO be a race between Eng.
land and America and between the
speaker and the listener in adjusting
the surroundings under WHICH the after
dinner speech shall be delivered.
Scarcely has the field glass of the
Prince OF Wales put the speaker at ban
quets at a disadvantage, when the long
distance telephone method hobs up to
the orators rescue. Chauncey Depew,
whose leadership among atter-dinner
speakers is as unquestioned as Is that of
the Prince of Wales among after-dinner
auditors, has just delivered a speech at
a distance of 225 miles from his home
in Washington TO hotel in New York.
Each guest listened to the speaker thro'
a receiver.
