Hon. Sam Jones Was Floored.

"Traveling on the steamer Northum-
berland, on the Rappahannock river, last
week" said the Rev. E. B. Bagby, of the
Ninth Street Christian church, according
to the Washington Post. 81 fell in with
a group of ministers on the upper deck,
and soon we were swapping stories. The
eccentricities of the famous evangelist,
Sam Jones, proved a prolific topic. The
Rev. Mr.. Butts, a Methodist minister
from Gloucester county, said that the
only time he had ever known Sam to be
disconnected was at H, Va. where he
had been called to conduct a union re-
vival. The first night of the meeting the
pastors of the different churches were on
the platform and crowds filled the pews.
All were looking for something sensa-
tional, and were not disappointed.
Evangelist Jones arose, turned to the
Methodist preacher and said:
7" Brother s., how many members have
you in your ehurch?'
Three hundred was the answer.
How many are willing to pray in
public?'
About a DOZEN
What is your salary?
Five hundred dollars
Then each minister was called in turn
and Intercepted upon the same points;
revealing the fact that the amount of
salary received by the minister and the
number taking public part in the services
was woefully small in comparison with
the size of the congregation.
Well said Mr.. Jones, addressing the
ministers, but with a sidelong glance at
the audience, if had such a mean, meas

what l would do? Iwould get them up
in pen and send off and get a hound

Methodist minister rising and stepping
forward, but that is just what we have
done. We have gathered the people to-

OF HABEAS CORPUS
Crawford Case to Come Up in
Richmond Courts.
PLACED UNDER DETENTION
Minister Visited by the Sheriff, and Inn
medately Makes Counter Move.
History of the

In the Circuit Court Of Richmond yes
terday afternoon Judge Beverley R. Well
ford Jr, issued a writ of habeas corpus,
commanding the Sheriff of Richmond to
produce the body OF the Rev. C. II. Cravf-
ford. of this city, tomorrow morning at
10 o'clock. The action was taken upon
the application of Judge w. II. Mann, OF
Nottoway Courthouse. attorney for Mr..
Crawford.
The writ follows and Is the climax to
highly interesting proceedings. instituted
recently by Judge Clarence J. Campbell.
of the Amherst County Court, against
the Rev. Mr.. Crawford, who is the super
intendent of the Ant-Saloon League OF
Virginia and the editor Of the Christian
Federation. the organ of that body. :,
short while ago Mr.. Crawford severely
criticised editorially the position occupied
by Judge Campbell in fight over
liquor license in Amherst. The judge
took umbrage at the language used. held
the Richmond minister in contempt of
court. and issued a rule against him.
The rule was disregarded and an attach
ment made, returnable next Monday, fol-
lowed
By this time Mr. Crawford had becom"
thoroughly alive to the situation and at
once set about to fight the mater out.
He took the ground that the action OF
the Amherst judge was an attack upon
the freedom of the press and violation
of his constitutional right to express his
opinion concerning the action of pub
lie official Judge w. n. Mann. of Not
toway Courthouse. and Mr. James L.
Shelton. of this city. were retained as
counsel, and every preparation was made
to put up a stiff fight.
THE WRIT IS SERVED
Judge Mann came over yesterday to
consult with his client. and while in con-
ference with him was Interrupted by the
sheriff of Richmond. who came in to place
Mr. Crawford under arrest and to notify
him of his detention pending his removal
to Amherst county on Monday. There
was no unpleasantness of any sort The
sheriff merely informed the we'll known
minister that he would be under surveil
lance for the next two or three days and
left. After some further consultation
Judge Mann went to the City Hall in
search of a writ. Judge Witt, of the
Hastings Court was away. and applica-
ton was maze to Judge Wexford, who
at once issued the desired paper. which,
IN to six o'clock yesterday afternoon,
had not been served upon the sheriff.
According to the writ. the case will
come up tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock
in the Circuit Court and will be gone into.
If the writ is sustained and the matter
decided in favor OF Mr.. Crawford the
chances are that he will not go to Am
herst. II not, he will, of course, comply
with the attachment and will prepare to
fight the matter to the bitter end. Judge
Mann was expected to leave last evening
for his home. He will return IN time to
be on hand tomorrow, however.
