WRITTEN FOR TIE SUNDAY REPUBLIC.
The Peniel Observation-Disclosures persons
Cali fits members the Holy Jumpers"-has
been in existence nearly four years. 1t came
into great prominence recently because its
leading spirit. Mr. r VI. Messenger. gave
UP position paying Sl5."1 year rather
than give up his church.
The Holy Jumpers" get their name from
practice of jumping during their services
They have had a period OF unusual pros
perity. but short time ago the fortunes of
the Peniel Church We're at low ebh.
The cause for this, oddly enough. has been
curious jealousy.
When in its prime the Peniel Church had
1l0 members in Grosvenordale Mass. and
when services Were held occasionally in Put
nam as many as $40 persons crowded into
the Bradley Theater.
The crowd was drawn by the actions of
members of the church. who. for ten min
utes preceding the opening of services in
the theater. held an open-air meeting.
The shouting and jumping was done in
the street and was continued during the
meeting In the hail.
It was known that the greater part of the
crowd attended out of curiosity. but adnlis
sion was barred to no one. as the Holy
Jumpers cared nothing for ridicule and
were prompted in their shouting and jump
ing by the joy in their hearts.
The Holy Jumpers" have been fortunate
in their leaders.
One of these F. NJ Messenger, was the
agent for large mills in Grosvenordale.
While the Holy Jumpers worshiped and
exercised In Grosvenordale they prospered
and gained converts in large numbers.
Mr.. Messenger, being an agent of the
mills. had control of all mill property. The
chapel used by the Methodists became the
meeting place for the Holy Jumpers"
through the mill agents influence.
Among the additions to the flock were
several persons from Putnam and Wilson,
ville Mass.
The number from Putnam grew each
week and led Mr.. Messenger to seek
meeting place IN the city.
He did so, and from that time can date
his troubles and those of his church.

In the Putnam branch of the Peniel Church

Term for Enamel County.

Judge Evans Asked to Adjourn the
Term for Emanuel County.
SWainsboro. Ga, March 30.-The
County Commissioners and the City
Council of Swainsboro have petitioned
Judge Beverly D. Evans TO postpone
until October the spring term of
Emanuel Superior Court, which regu-
larly convenes here on the third Mon
day in April. The petition for post
ponement was caused by the fact that
smallpox is still prevalent in the coun-
ty. Many people residing in the af-
fccted communities would have bust
ness in the court, and it is feared that
this would cause a revival and spread
of the disease, which is at present I'M
der control and dying out
Some people show to disposition to
criticise the officials for asking for a
postponement of court. which is al
ways a big occasion and brings to town
many country people whose trade is
beneficial to the business people, while
others say that it is the proper thing
to be done. At any rate. it is probable
that Judge Evans will accede to the
request of the officials and put off the
April term until fall.

CURES CHRONIC GATARRH.

Hyomei Cures Worst Forms of This
Disease in any Part of the system.
It is the hight of folly to continue
doctoring a catarrhal disease by stom-
ach drugging. when the whole trouble
lies in the respiratory organs where
nothing can reach the germs but a
local direct treatment by inhalation.
Hyomei is Natures remedy for the
cure Of catarrh. Just breathe it a
few times daily and it will effect a
cure
You may have catarrh of the stom-
ach. liver or kidneys and Hyomei will
as surely cure ii as it will catarrh of
the head and throat. The catarrhal
germs are in the mucous membrane or
tissues and Hyomei not only kills the
germs along the air passages, but en-
tiers the blood with the oxygen, killing
the germs in the blood.
The medicated dry air that goes
through the air passages. and into the
lungs when Hyomei is breathed
through the inhaler that accompanies
every outfit, is rich in ozone, purely
vegetable and filled with marvellous
healing and Strengthening qualities.
If you are tired of stomach drug
ging and seem TO grow weaker all
the time, throw physic to the dogs"
and get well with the health-giving
Hyomei treatment that is Natures
own method.
Rev. ]. B. Cook of Holliston. Mass,
says: MY wife has suffered greatly
from catarrh for fifteen years. Nearly
four weeks ago she commenced to use
Hyomei and the beneficial effect was
immediate It is very seldom that she
needs to clear her head and throat
and she is able TO rest quietly at night
For years past she had been troubled
with pain in her limbs which we sup
posed was rheumatism, but since she
has used Hyome that affection has
disappeared" knights Pharmacy Co.
will return your money if Hyomei does
not cure YOU Of catarrh. This shows
their faith in the remedy.

ChRnEed-Athens News Notes.
Athens, Ga. March 3O.-At the last
meeting of the Board of Trustees OF
the University of Georgia it was de-
cided to locate the new Peabody Libra
ry building on the corner of Jackson
and Broad streets. but the suggestion
has now been made that the trustees
reconsider this decision and locate the
building directly between the Chapel
and Science Hall, facing the Broad
street front of the campus This would
give the building a more commanding
site, but it would require the cutting
down of the famous '"Toombs Oak un-
der which Robert Toombs is said TO
have delivered a great speech while
IN college here. and this is objected
to by many.
1t is possible that this might be
avoided by placing the building a lit
tie further to the rear of the campus,
leaving the old tree in front.
Architect Bleckley has, at the in
stance of Mr.. Peabody, recently visited
Trinity College, n. c., where a hand
some new library building has just been
completed, and has gained additional
information which he will put to use
in the final drawing of the plans for
University of Georgia. 1t is believed
that work upon the new library build
ing will be started by June l.
The directors of the University Sum-
mer School have met and devised plans
for the extensive advertising of the
school, which is to be opened in this
city July l, and which will remain in
session six weeks.
There will be no attempt made TO
remove the remains of Gen. Elijah
Clarke from the county of Wilkes to

proposed to be erected to his memory

this county which bears his name. The
Kettle Creek chapter in Washington.
Ca has protested against the re-
moval. This discussion about the re-
mains of Gen. Clarke brings out the
fact that it is not known exactly where
the remains of that distinguished
American soldier are buried in Wilkes
county.
