The Southern Baptist Convention of
1908 is the largest ever held. The fact
that the number of delegates exceed
ed that of any other convention was
only determined yesterday, when the
secretaries found time TO figure up the
totals The first report was made on
the morning of the opening day A
number of delayed delegates have since
arrived. The number now in actual
attendance upon the convention is 1,1S4.
This is nearly 100 more delegates than
attended the convention in Asheville
last year, and is considerably in ex-
cess of the number in any previous
convention.
Besides being the largest, the dele
gates frankly admit that it is one of
the greatest and best conventions ever
held. It's work has been most harmo-

year for home and foreign missions and

A DAY OF MANY SERVICES.
Former Pastors of Duffy Street Con-
gregation Held Reunion.

gregatiOn Held Reunion.
Yesterday was a day of many serv-
ices at the Duffy Street Baptist Church
At the 10 o'clock service Rev. Walter
Galley of Chicago, general secretary of
the Baptist Young Peoples Union of
America, addressed the union of the
Duffy Street Baptist Church. The
room in which the union usually meets
proved too small to accommodate the
audience, and the meeting was held in
the auditorium. Mr.. Calley's theme
was "Consecration." which he handled
in an interesting way.
The sermon at IL o'clock was by Rev.
E. c. Dargan, d. D., one of the facul-
ty of the Southern Theological Semi
nary at Louisville, Ky. DR.. Dargan is
considered one of the ablest men in
the Baptist denomination in the South
and in consequence a large congrega-
ton was present at the morning service
to hear him. The church was taxed to
it's utmost capacity to seat the people
chairs having to be placed in the aisles
to accommodate the crowds. And DR..
Dargan did not disappoint those who
had braVed the elements to hear him.
His text was taken from Matthew XVI
chapter, verses Sc to 80. His theme
was an analysis of the two prayers
made by Jesus in the Garden of Geth-
semane during his suffering and agony
His sermon was considered one of the
ablest delivered in Duffy Street Church
The Sunday-school hour was given
over to a reunion service of the for
mer pastors of the church, Rev. w. S.
Royal, Rev. E. Pendleton Jones, Rev.
Thos. S. Shipman and Rev. Jas D.
Chapman. This was a unique service
1t is seldom that a church has all of
its former pastors together at one
time. Each of the former pastors gave
a short address, in the order of his
connection with the church. Rev w. S.
Royal spoke first and DIR. ]. D. Chap
man last. The remarks of each were
mostly reminiscent of events during
their pastorates. The service was a
delightful one. After the meeting the
pastors were kept busy for half an
hour shaking hands with the congre-
cation.
At night Rev. ]. w Brougher. D.
D., of Chattanooga, Tenn, preached
before a large congregation. DR..
Brougher is one of the most eloquent
preachers in the South, and his ser
mon was listened to with the closest
interest.

Rev. DR.. J. William Jones will de-
liver his address before the Confed-

night at Guards Hall at $3.50 o'clock.
Much interest is manifested in the ad-

which it is given, and if the weather is
good it is probable that a large audi
ence will greet the speaker.

the unfavorable weather conditions it
was thought best to defer it, is given
on invitation of the Confederate camps.
