Divine May Accept Bap-
tist Church Here
DEACONS TO REPORT TODAY
Successor to Rev, Walter M. Gilmore

Services at the Church This
Morning

Rev. S. r. G. Adams, of Atlanta, ar
rived in the city last night and will
occupy the pulpit of the First Baptist
church today. There will be preach.
ing services both morning and even
ing. DR.. Adams is very scholarly
man and an eloquent preacher and
will no doubt be greeted by a large
audience.
More than usual interest attaches
to the morning service, as it is under
stood that conference of the church
will be held Immediately after this
service for the purpose of considering
the calling of pastor to succeed Rev.
W. M. Gilmore, who recently resigned.
1t is stated that the deacons are ready
to report with a recommendation to
the church to call one of the best
known ministers of the denomination
in the state.
None of the deacons would make
any statement for publication as to
the minister who would be recommend
ed in advance of the report to the
church, but it is known that Rev.
Oliver J. Copeland, pastor of the Bap.
tist church of Waresboro, Georgia,
and who is recognized as one of the
ablest and most eloquent preachers
In the state, recently visited Bruins
wick at the Invitation Of the church,
and that the members were most
fayorably impressed with him,
The church and the 4ity generally
would be most fortunate shuold Mr.
Copeland be called to the pastorate
and accepted.
On account Of the Importance of the
action which will probably be taken
by the church this morning the dea-
cons request full attendance of the
members.

On account OF an accident to the en-
gine pulling the pay train Of the AT.

tefday morning, the many employees
OF the road in this city did not get
their money yesterday.
Just how serious an accident it was
cannot be stated, but as some OF the
employees stated last night, 'it was
quite serious to we who were waiting
Tor our months pay" The accident
occurred some where on the lrwinville
division between Bushnell and Irwin,
vile, on the old Brunswick and Birm-
ingham line.
inquiry was made at the offices of
the A. & b. last night, bur nothing
definite could be learned there as to
the accident. 1t is stated, however,
that no one was injured, and the
extent OF the mishap was only the
break down of the engine pulling the
pay train.
In this connection it may be stated
that this is the first time the A. Il
b. pay train has failed to arrive here
on schedule time, and this was occas-
Toned by an unavoidable mishap.
The pay train is expected to arrive
here some time today, however, and
the many employees of the road here
will all receive their gs6ney ssnorrow.
1t Is hoped that Khe accident was
not serious one. rrainmaster Smith

Outer Bar
NO DOUBT ABOUT DEPTH
The Large Steamer Went to sea Fri

There are some people in the city of

There are a very large number OF peo-

that hold very firmly to the same be.
lief. The fact that the impression is
an erroneous one has been practically
proven time and time again, still there
is some doubt on the subject.
The truth of the case was again ea-
tablished on Friday when the large
British steamer Lord Erne, cleared
from this port and put to sea drawing
by actual count just exactly twenty
three feet of water, and she went
over easily and perfectly.
The Importance of this demonstrate
ed fact cannot be oYer-estimated, when
it is recalled that in 1891, before work
was commenced on the ocean bar, a
steamer drawing only II feet of water
could not have crossed. This fact Is
very significant when it is recalled
that steamer drawing % feet Of wa
ter could not possibly pass over the
bar at Savannah or very few other
south Atlantic ports.
This is the fourth or fifth time that
the fact has been evidenced that we
have more that 23 feet of water and 1t
should be matter of qualification
