A NEW CLUB.
But This Time It Is One Entirely Diff
ferent From the Rest.

Paragould has Mandolin club.
OF course this is new to the people
OF Paragould, as the organization
of the club was not completed until
last night.
On last Wednesday night num-
Der of young ladies met at the
home of Miss Grace Mckinney for
the purpose Of effecting the or
ganization of mandolin club, but
1t was not completed and the final
arrangements made until last night,
when they met at the home Of Miss
Georgia Ware. This is club that
has been wanted for quite while,
among the young people especially,
and now that the organization has
been effected, it is at least under
headway.
The club will meet twice week
for the present, and the next time
and place of meeting has been set
for next Friday night, at the home
of Miss Amy Spiece. It's probable
that the nights of practice will be
Tuesday and Friday.
This club is composed of young
ladies who are capable Of perfect
ing an enterprise of that character
when they resolve to do so, espe-
cially so, when it is considered that
half Of the members are possessed
of musical talent and ability. Miss
.Alma--Johnson will instruct the
members Of the club; unea~;t. is.
needless to say that she will meet
every requirement. Of the UNDER
taking as her pronounced attain
ments in the musical art is assur-
ance Of her success in making the
club one OF sincere pride to the
music lovers of ParagouId. The
club will be introduced in the rem
dition of the most popular and
latest productions in music, and it
bids fair to be one Of real pride to
the city.
Those who were present last
night and the instruments they will
play are: Misses Alma Johnson,
Grace Mckinney, Sudie Willcock-
son, Kate Young, mandolins; Miss
es Georgia Ware, Ula McAfee,
Nina Mckinney, Amy Spiece, Ella
Belt, guitars. Misses Ava Ham
mond, Lille Conwell aud Inez
O'Steen will be with the club after
next Friday night. Miss Leila

concerning d WdFU CnuTCu IOW DIV
Ft. Smith special from that city
says:
An interesting situation has arisen
here in the Ninth Street Baptist
Church, and the prospects of a liye-
~ fight between Rev. J. l.. VanPelt
aud the deacons of his flock are
splendid. Yesterday morning Rob-
erts Whiting, one Of the deacons,
locked up the church and announced
that VanPelt should never again
therein enter in the capacity of
minister, position he has held f,r
the past six years. This move was
upon advice of Justice of the Peace
Sam Edmonson, upon the repre-
sentation by Whiting that VanPelt
had agreed to relinquish his pastor
ate upon payment of 500 in cash
and note of 1925, which Whiting
alleged VanPelt had received last
Sunday at meeting held at the
church. 1t soon became known that
Whiting had locked the church, and
several Of the female members Of the
congregation vent to VanreTs-s--ass---
sistance, and visited the office OF
Justice Edmonson, where they said
VanPelt had not been discharged
by the congregation, the msJority OF
which is in favor of retaining him,
but that the deal was the result OF
a fight upon the minister by the
deacons because some OF his utter
ances had pressed not lightly on the
deacons' toes. The cfficia then ad-
vised them to reopen the church
and allow VanPelt to resume away.
This they did. This morning Dea-
cons Gordon and Whiting formed a
committe of two to wait upon Ed
monson for more advice, and when
told to tell their troubles to Prose-
cutting Attorney Ben Cravens. They
began hunt for him, but be learned
OF their intentions and disappeared
aud could not be found. Mrs. Van
Pelt, wife of the minister, whom
the deacons are trying to oust, said
today that there was no trouble
in the congregation; that the
deacons objected to VanPelt's
sermons on the habit Of drink
ing whiskey because they touched
their weaknesses. She admitted
that her husband had agreed to alb
dicate upon payment of the cash and
the notes, aad that these had been
received. Wednesday night, she
Said, q congregational meeting was
held TO decide whether VanPelt
should remain or go, at which Dea-
cons Gordon, Whiting and Bowden
presented the PASTORS resignation
which they requested him to sligo,
which he declined to do, saying be
would present his own resignation in
due form at meeting he would call
at a later date. 1t was several days
later that the alleged agreement be-
tween the deacons and the preacher
was entered into. Mrs. VanPelt in
timated today that the deacons hi d
been beaten at their own game, and
were out just 1925 without having
accomplished their object.
