A HOLY WAR

ATLANTA, Ca, March 5.-A
condition of disorder, bordering
on riot, prevails this morning in
the Jones Avenue Baptist Church.
After night of argument and
even blows between two factions
of the church the disputants di-
vided into two camps, one of
which still retains possession of
the church edifice. One man was
badly bruised during the trouble.
The Savior said: Il came not to
bring peace but sword" yet his
statement should not be taken too
literally. The Georgia Baptists should
try to reconcile the above quoted SEN
tence with Cnrists other admonition,
Blessed are the peacemakers, for
they shall be called the children of
God. !"

MAUI PARTNERSHIP
PLAN CARRIED OUT

Meetings of the stockholders of Paia
and Haiku plantations were held yes
terday in the offices of Alexander &
Baldwin, and the partnership agree
ment with the five corporations taking
over the Kihei lands, was formally rati-
fed.
The committee composed of John
Watt, L. Barkhausen and A. W. Bot
tomley reported, recommending the
values placed by Mr.. Baldwin in the
proposed partnership, and advising
that it be carried through. Senator
Baldwin then stated that with view
to overcoming objections made and to
create a better feeling he would pro-
pose that the five recently formed cor
porations instead of taking one-siXth
of the stock be given but one-seventh,
the Haiku and Paia stockholders to
get the remainder. The division of in
terests thus made gives Haiku planta-
ton twelve thirty-ffths, Paia planta-
ton eighteen thirty-ffths while each
of the five other corporations get one
thirty-fifth. The resolution embodying
this disposition was adopted.

New Egg-TeatInE method.

A new method of testing eggs for
their freshness has been communi-
Gated to the Agricultural society, Of
Saxony. An egg plunged into water
tends to rise with more buoyancy
according to it's age, owing to en-
largement of the empty space at the
thick end by evaporation Of water
from the white. Hence the egg takes
a different position in the water.
Fresh eggs remain horizontal, an egg
three to five days old makes an an
