DISCUSSED QUERIES
FROM QUESTION BOX.
DIR. Jordan Preached Twice in First
Baptist Church Yesterday.

At the First Baptist Church yester-
day, morning and evening, Rev. ]. D.
Jordan, pastor, occupied the pulpit. At
the morning service DR.. Jordan spoke
from the text LAS he thinketh in his
heart, so is he" From this the speaker
drew the conclusion that a mans
thoughts governed his conscience and
his affections. and from these his char
acter was formed.
The discussion of two queries pre-
sented in the question box at the Y.
nj. G. A. building occupied the minis
ter's time at the night service. The
questions were in regard to the refer
ences to witchcraft, and to the "wor-
shipping of flesh and blood" The min
lister had already spoken on these sub
Jects at meeting in the Y. NJ. C. A.
building during the afternoon, and fol-
lowed up that argument, plainly show
ing that belief in witchcraft was not
taught in the Bible, and that the wor-
snip of Christ, as followed in the
Christian churches, did not mean the
alteration of the physical being-but of
the spiritual Christ; the worship of the
thinking and immortal part and not
the body and blood.
Special music was rendered by the
choir during the services and a very
beautiful solo was sung at the offer
tory by Miss Shuptrine.

REGIMENT WILL ARRIVE
THIS FORENOON.
First Infantry Will Break Camp at
Augusta This Morning.

The First Regiment of Infantry will
leave Augusta this morning on its spe-
cia1 train at o'clock. the Savannah
companies arriving in the city at about
II 30 o'clock a. m.
The First Regiment will break camp
several hours sooner than the Third.
owing to the greater distance which
they will have to travel in reaching
home. The companies of the Third Reg
inent will remain in camp until noon.
1t was thought at first that the 5a-
yannah companies would not arrive I'M
til tonight A telegram from Col. Cor
don to Capt. Dreyer announced, now
ever. that an earlier departure would
be taken. The regiment Will leave the
Electric City in a special train of two
coaches. the Swainsboro, Waynesboro
ana Statesboro companies detraining
near their home stations, and the
Brunswick company coming to Savan-
nah.
In an order which appears elsewhere
in the Morning News, the stay-at-home
members of the regiment are requested
to assemble at the armory at IL o'clock
for the purpose of forming provis-
ional company. The men will wear
the dress uniform and cap. Shortly
after II o'clock they will proceed to
the Central Of Georgia depot, under
command of Capt. Joseph NJ. Dreyer.
senior officer of the regiment in the
city.
It was at first decided to have speech
making by the veteran members of the
organizati ton, after the arrival of the
troops at the armory, but this will have
to be foregone, owing to the unseason-
able hour at which the troops arrive.
The regiment won the praise and ap-
probation of every one during its stay
in camp, and it's homecoming will be
the occasio no doubt. of a demonstra-
ton along the line of march from the
depot to the armory.

SERIES OF SERMONS
BY REV. A. R. MILLER.

Rev. A. R. Miller preached yesterday
at both the morning and evening serv-
ices at the Christian Church AT the
morning service he preached the first
of a series of sermons on Some Rea-
sons Why Some Who Profess Christ
viii Not Get to Heaven"
In this address he called attention
to the vices of swearing, dancing and
drinking as inimical to the develop
ment of Christian character and con-
sequently, salvation.
The importance of having thorough
control over the body and it's appe-
titles was dwelt upon and lessons along
this line drawn and lucidly presented.
The speaker urged that there should
be no element of doubt in the mind as
to the completeness of conversion and
the promises upon which faith in
Christ is based.

FROM THE OUTSIDE.

The Bay street merchant had often
when leaving in the evening, and
thought, well, no burglars will ever
bother u.s. for there's no way to get
in except from the front door, and
that's rather heavy to break"
Yesterday he went to church with
Mrs. -. and no doubt enjoyed the
sermon. 1t was hot walking home but
there were fans and ice water in the
dining room, and the plan was to go
out to dinner So they made haste
to get up the steps and rang the bell
and then again and again.
The sun was doing a Scorch about
that time, and the stoop was uncom-
fortably warm. OF course, coming just
from church, Mr.. didn't want to
swear but he was thinking some un-
parliamentary things, and the servant
girl was getting the long end of the
think
Then Mrs. - remembered that
she had told Mary that when she got
through the housework she might go
home. Worse and more of it; Mary
had gone, locked the doors and win
dows and disappeared. 1t was prob
ably two miles to Mary's house, and
she had likely gone further by this
time, anyway.
Here's where my college education
comes in for something" said the
merchant after thinking it over for the
space of nineteen and two-third sec
onds. and with the special grip that
he had acquired when a freshman and
fond of staying out over hours, he
slid up the lead water pipe, chased
along a narrow margin to a window,
and boldly entered his own house.
while Mrs. stood watch below to
save him from a stray policeman who
might disapprove of such an uncon-
ventional manner of approach.

MUSIC AND PICTURES
AT THUNDERBOLT CASINO.

Rain Kept Crowds Away, but Those
Who Braved Weather Were En-
tertained.
The Casino suffered along with other
resorts yesterday afternoon and the
usual Sunday crowd was conspicuous
by its absence. 1t was, however, not
lonesome in the pretty building, for
some people would not be- deferred
by even downpour when their plans
have been made for a trip to this at
tractive place.
Two concerts were given by the
First Regiment Band and at night the
poiyscope showed some fine new pic
lures.
Interesting and pleasing entertain
ments are arranged for the present
week and with last weeks show in
remembrance the people will doubt
less be glad of the opportunity offered
for seeing excellent vaudeville at nomi-
nal expense.
The polyscope pictures, which are
given every night are alone worth a
trip to the Casino, and this Is only one
of the many pleasant features of the
resort

ABRAMS WOUND WILL
NOT PROVE FATAL
MOessIer Is Held mt Police Barracks
for NSurderous Assault.


for Murderous Assault.
w. H Abrams the white man, who
was shot in Smiths saloon by George
Moessler ON Saturday night, is still at
the Savannah Hospital where, it is re-
ported, he is resting WELL and little
fear is entertained of the wound prov
ing fatal.
Moessler is held at the barracks, the
authorities being unwilling to dis
charge him until there is a change for
the better in the wounded mans con-
dition. He expresses great regret at
the occurrence, and maintains that the
shooting was purely accidental.
AS soon as the condition of Abrams
will admit of his giving testimony, a
preliminary hearing will be had in Re-
corder's Court 1t is stated that Moess-
Ter will probably be bound over for
action by the grand jury While he is
held for murderOus assault, it is prob
able that if the evidence shows that
the shooting was accidental, he will be
held for a minor offense.

TYBEE CROWD DEFIED RAIN.

The travel to Tybee began somewhat
earlier than usual yesterday. the noon
train carrying down ten coaches, well
filled, with pleasure seekers. Fourteen
more coaches made their exodus at
$3.50 o'clock. Despite the rain the surf
was literally patronized.
special programme was rendered at
Bohan's pavilion, which attracted large
crowds. On both pavilions sacred con-
certs We're held, while many enjoyed
the breezes down on the pavilion near
the waters edge. Most of the excur-
sionists remained until the late train
enjoying the spanking sea breeze as
long as possible before BEAUTIFULLY re-

BY. P. u. MEETING
WAS INTERESTING.
Very Small Attendance Compared to
Former Years.


Former Years.
Rev. DR.. John D. Jordan, pastor of
the First Baptist Church, returned to
the city from Atlanta Saturday night,
and yesterday talked Interestingly
about the meeting of the Baptist
Young Peoples Union of America, in
session at Atlanta. The gathering was
representative, Or. Jordan said, but a
great disappointment as to numbers in
attendance. The date had been per-
hapS unfortunate on account Of conflict
with state union meetings and state
conventions among the Baptlsts OIL the
South. In nearly every Southern state
there was some good reason for the
Baptist Young People staying at home
and it was evident in the attendance
at the Atlanta meeting. Savannah was
well represented in the meeting, having
the largest delegation, outside of Allan
ia Some states came very near haV-
ing no delegates-North Carolina, for
instance, was represented by a single
individual.
On account of the oppressively hot
weather in the North and East, great
number of people who had made up
their minds to come to Atlanta to at
tend the Baptist Young Peoples Union
meeting decided that if it was so warm
at home, it must be intolerable in the
South, and simply changed their plans.
The programme was carried out al
most exactly as arranged, and the ses-
sions We're fun of interest and impor-
lance. The holding of meetings at the
Exposition Park aid not appear to be
especially we'll devised. as considerable
time was lost in going to and coming
from the place.
To-day the delegates to the Baptist
Young Peoples Union convention will
go to Talullah Falls. This is one of
the pleasure trips of the occasion and
will no doubt prove very delightful.
A few of the Savannah delegates
have returned to the city already, but
the majority will remain away until
Tuesday.

Heart wounds Not Necessarily Mortal.
From American McdjrH

In wounds Of the heart itself the escape
Of blood is never in large quantity. and the
lethal consequences are due to the fact that
the escape Of blood from within its cavity
Tor cavities) into the surrounding sac of the
pericardium mechanically interrupts the al
ternate contraction and expansion by which
its pumping action Ia maintained. Accord
ingly, the results of wound Of the heart are
usually identical with those of gradual
sulfocation, This fact was strikinglv demon
strnted In the case of the Empress of Austria.
And the dlabolic skill and precision with
which the wound was inflicted in her case
offer q diaGrammatic illustration Of a neccs-
sarily fatal wound of the heart. The nstru-
ment used was too large to form mere
needle puncture:" II was inflicted too high
in the chest to be on-penetrating. for
it was aimed with truly dendsh ingenuity
Of the four cavities OF the heart and tn.
with the thinness Of wall of the cavity,
rendered II physically impossible that the
wound could be "valvular.
The lsraelite warrior OF old smote the
enemy-~when possible beneath the nth
rib, because the impulse of the heart Is
felt there. But he probably did not know
that IL IL In that precise position that wound
Of the heart Is least necessarily fatal. The
Italian assassin of recent date displays in
comparaby greater skill and knowledge.
The science Of the present day also proves
that the historic account of the death or
Admiral Nilleneuve is open TO scepticai
doubt And the recent cases OF suture of
the heart give illustration that modern sur
gcal skill may attempt, and with success,
the seemingly impossible. '----
