DIR. LAMAR BREACHES
COURT STREET CONGREGATION
 HEARS FORMER PASTOR.
Strong Sermon on the Faith of Chris- tians and Several Important An- nouncements Made at Meth
 Odist Church.

Rev. A. J. Lamar, D. D., one of the book agents of the publishing house of the Methodist Church, South, at Nashville, preached at the Court Street Methodist Church yesterday morning.
 He served that congregation four years as pastor and was therefore among old friends.
 His text was Romans viii,2S, All things work together for good to them that love God; to them who gre the called according to his purpose"
 The large church was well filled and tho speaker was given close attention for an hour. He did not attempt to lead his hearers into any theologically deep water as many have done recent ly with the passage quoted, but dis cussed it from the practical and com mon sense standpoint of the Great Ruler of the Universe vouchsaflng to his subjects only that which is in the long run of greatest benefit to them
 It was developed in the discourse that there Is significance in the word together" and that 1t is not 50 much that which the individual does alone but what the working together" of all concerned accomplishes.
 An illustration was found in the story of Joseph. When stripped of his clothing and thrown into the pit by his brothers 1t was difficult for him to see any good in store for him, and no doubt after being sold to the traders bound for Egypt, the young fellow still wondered what 1t meant. But his glory in the land of Pharaoh was the reward that came even from the wick ed working of his brothers.
 The sermon could only have come from the lips of a student not only of the Bible, but human events. It placed before his hearers the principle that God Is constantly guiding the oestinles of His people and In spite of troubles and misfortunes working out for those who love Him only that which Is best and highest for them.
 It was, In effect, an elaboration of the doctrine of faith, presentation of the idea that, placing confidence in God for the future. the Christian has only to do his best to follow the teach ings of the Master. believing that He will bring salvation to pass and be we'll.
 pr. Lamar had not been with his old parishioners for some time and they were happy to welcome him again.
 The program of music was especial ly good. several special selections be- ing presented with great pleasure to the audience.
 From the announcements of the day 1t was learned that John R. Payne has been added to the roll of members; that the woman's Board of Home Mis- sions of the Nj. E. Church, South, will hold a session of five days at the Church beginning next Thursday, on the evening of which aate a reception will be given the visitors; that the Ladies' Aid Society will elect officers Tuesday afternoon at o'clock. and that the Building Committee will hold a meeting Thursday at p. m.

MAN FOUND SWINGING
DOUBT AS TO CAUSE OF NEGROs
 DEATH.
Found Hanging From Tree in Rear or Employers House and Both Suicide and Lynch Law are
 SuEpected.

Brundidge. April 9.-(Specia1.- Con siderable excitement was caused in the city this morning when phone mes- sage announced that a negro had been found hanging by the neck to tree in J. E. Leverette's yard at Pronto.
 The negro's name was Tom Johnson and he was working for Mir. Lever cite to pay a fine which the latter had paid for him, assessed by the court for a shooting affair in which Johnson hao been engaged.

 After that no one saw him except Mir Leverette's son Hiram who observ- ed him going toward the gate. then turn and go toward the stable.
 Shortly after he called to Johnson, but got no reply When Hiram got up this morning and went to feed his cows, he found the negro hanging to tree, about thirty feet from the public road and not over fifty yards from the back door of the residence.
 The rope, an ordinary blow line, was tied to projecting limb ana the other end noosed around the negro's neck. Around the root of the tree was piled on end a lot of heavy six-foot. split oak wood and against this the body was lying. with the left arm resting on the end of one of the pieces. Justice J. H. Lawson empanneled a coroner's jury. The body was cut down and examined by Drs. McEachern and Dickinson. After hearing their evidence and that of various parties on the place the verdict rendered was in substance that Tom Johnson. colored, came to his death by hanging by the neck. by violence. at the hands or parties unknown.
 Opinion is about equally divided as to whether 1t was suicide or murder. Sheriff Reeves, wife and children are visiting Mrs Reeves's father, Sergeant Burr Ramage, near Pronto today. He stopped this morning at MT. Lever ette's and summoned witnesses and jurors for Justice Lawson In the Tom
