Special to Times Republican.
Waverly, Nov. 1.-THE Rev. P. Smock
who was to have been tried by COM
mittee of the Cedar Valley Baptist AS
ISOLATION on charges that reflected on
his character as Christian and a gen
tleman, stole march on his accusers
and for the time being seems to have
them Sin a hole" AT the same time
his proceeding is something new IN
church procedure and offers new ave-
nue. of escape for ministers whose con-
duct ia omen to suspicion and whose
congregations show disposition TO
discover how and why, If at all, he has
been neglectful of the proprieties. Rev
Smock went before the judge OF the
district court and asked for an inJunc-
ton restraining the council of the Bap-
fist church. from meeting in an official
capacity yesterday to inquire into GER
tain charges made by the officials OF the
WaverIy church against Mr.. Smock on
moral grounds.
His action is believed to be without
precedent and unheard of IN churcn
procedure in Iowa. The Judge did not
issue the injunction, as that would IN
volve a lawsuit, but sent for the pastor
and a committee from the church TO
lay the matter before them, telling them
that the Injunction had been served,
but he did not desire to precipitate
lawsuit unless 1t was their desire to go
ahead with the council. when such ac-
ton would then become necessary.
The council had been mutually called
some time ago by Rev. Smock and the
officiary Of the church. In response to
the call nearly forty men, pastors and
laymen representing the thirty seven
churches in the Cedar Valley Associa-
ton and the missionary organizations,
arrived in Waverly and their surprise
can better be imagined than described
when they learned that an injunction
against their consideration Of the mat
ter in hand had been asked for. Very
few Of the pastors or deacons knew
anything of the charges that had been
preferred against Rev. Smock and they
had come to vindicate him II he was
found to be innocent.
Another unheard-of proceeding. ac-
cording to local Baptists. was the ask
ing and granting Of letters of with

An Unpleasant Experience.

Has 1t ever been your unhappy lot 10
be told by your physician that you
must go to hospital and submit to an
operation? If so, you remember with
what dread and shrinking you awaited
the day when you must endure the
knife. The present day surgeon ap-
pears to be possessed by a mania for
operating, especially in cases of hemor-
rhoids or piles, and while the greater
number of the profession do not recon-
mend this "last resort" unless they
honestly believe it necessary, the fact
remains that much needless operating
is done, and the patient put to much
expense and suffering for what? To
obtain a possible temporary relief;
these words are used advisedly, because
in nine cases out of ten the affection
returns and the patient is just where
he started from. Oftentimes he could
be cured much more simply and easily
by the use of such remedy as the
Pyramid Pile Cure; this has come to
be recognized as the best remedy on the
market for the painful disease named,
and the druggists now sell more of 1t
than all other pile remedies combined.
The writer personally knows people
who were afflicted with the worst form
Of bleeding and protruding piles and
who were permanently cured by the use
Of Pyramid Pile Cure. In every one of
these cases the attending physician had
assured the sufferer that only by an
operation could he rid himself Of the
disease; so much for the infallibility of
the doctors. This remedy, which is sold
by all druggists at the low price of so
cents, is In suppository form, is applied
directly to the parts affected, and per-
forms it's work quietly and painlessly.
The Pyramid Drug Company, of Mar
shall, Mich, will mail free to any ad-
dress book telling all about piles or
kemorrhoids, their cause and cure.
A suggestion is offered that II the
reader is afflicted. or knows any one
who is, this book be sent for, as it will
be found invaluable.

drawal to Rev Smock fromthe Baptist
church as pastor and member by
small majority of the members at
meeting held only few days ago while
the charges were pending against the
gentleman. This proceeding, so far as
is known, is also without precedent, and
local Baptists affirm that if such action
will bear the scrutiny of the law 1t
opens a way whereby any pastor can
engage in unchurch1y conduct, ask for
letters of dismissal and, if he can mus
ter majority, be absolved from any
responsibility to the church. They say
this might open a way for unfettered
licentiousness on the part of a pastor
or member so far as responsibility to
church government is concerned.
After the persons composing the
council had gathered and talked the
matter over 1t was decided to send a
committee to see Rev. Smock. The
committee found him in his Office, and
he claimed he was without the pale of
the church, being no longer a minister
of the denomination or a member of
the church, and for these reasons the
council had no right to meet in an
official capacity to investigate the
charges made or pass on his guilt or
innocence. The committee could do
nothing else than retire.
If the council would have attempted
to have met it would have precipitated
suit a law, and there could not have
been elected a moderator or any other
officers. The members of the council,
the pastors and deaconS and represent
atives of the missionary societies, would
have become CO. defendants to the act
ion and the matter of making the in
junction permanent or dissolving 1T
would have to be argued before the
judge who gave 1t. The Baptist church
as body is composed of individual
congregations and there can be no re-
sponsibility attaching to the church as
a body except that responsibility is
assumed by the pastors and individual
members Because of this it was de-
cided by the delegates that they would
do nothing to precipitate a suit at law.
Mr.. Smock has engaged several of the
brightest lawyers of Wayerly to look
after his legal interests, and he is dis
posed to fight the matter to the end.
The charges were upon Immoral
grounds, but their exact nature has not
been made public. The charges were
brought by the pastor, Rev. Graves,
and the deacons of the church. The
congregation is about equally divided as
to Mr.. Shocks guilt. those believing
him innocent being IN the main the
feminine portion of the congregation.
in large part those whom he baptized
or took into the church while he was
pastor. His withdrawal from the
church was voted by a majority of sew
en- votes.

The negotiations to secure the auto

at the head Of the movement have en-

Father Nixon returned Saturday
from West Virginia, full of reminis-
cence incident and story. We can only
relate one now. AT town where he
lived forty years ago he found the old
hotel and walked in for dinner. 1t was
just as it was then--the same furniture,
the same tables in the dining room set
at just the same angle and loaded with
the same great dishes of victuals. But
the old landlord had died and willed the
hotel to his heir with the stipulation
that chicken should be served for din
ner every day. A failure of chicken for
feited title to the hotel. This is an ac-
tual fact. A chicken dinner daily is a
permanent feature Of that hotel, worla
without end.

An Immense Undertaking.

Uncle Sam is nearly ready to be-
gin laying the Trans Pacific cable
from San Francisco to Manila.
touching Honolulu and Guam. 1t
will be one of the great undertak.
ings of the twentieth century. The
cable which is now being manufac-
tured. will be the longest in the
world.
1t is estimated that the work will
cost in the neighborhood of $780,
100000. In laying the cable four
vessels of special design, and a
staff of 1000 electricians and en-
gineers will be employed. The
pathway for the cable has already
been marked out by a United
States vessel.
