TO WORLD CONGRESS.
Distinguished Editor Once
Pastor of the Hopkinsville
Baptist Church.

At st. Louis the Bapt!sts of Amer
lea, North and South, of Canada and
the nearby islands, have entered into
a great common body, the General
Baptist Convention of America. DR..
j. N. Prestridge, editor of the Bap-
tist Argus, of this city, is secretary,
and the headquarters of the General
Baptist Convention have been locat-
ed in Louisville, at $50 Third avenue.
When the Baptist World Congress,
London, July 11-18, 1905, became as
sured a call was made by DIR. H. L..
Moorehouse, of New York City, for
this organization of the Baptists of
America, a constitution and bylaws
were adopted and a second meeting
was ordered for next May, the time
and place being left to the executive
committee. A subcommittee was
appointed to secure, the meetings of
the Southern Baptist Convention and
the Northern societies next May in
the same or nearby cities so that the
General Baptist Convention may
meet between the sessions Of these

have a general attendance.
Great enthusiasm prevailed in st.
Louis, and prophecies were freely
made by both sides of new era for
the Baptist denomination. The new
body will not interfere with the or
ganization, and work of either of the
other bodies. 1t is fitting that Lou
isville should become the headquar-
ters of the United Baptists of Amer
lea. The Baptist World Congress
was born and shaped in Louisville.
A large number of messengers from
Kentucky will sail the last of June
for London to attend this meeting.
Among them is President E. Y. Null
Inns. -Courier-Journal.
1t is a source of profound pride
here in Hopkinsville that DR.. Pres
fridge, who will go to London as one
of the principal officers of the highest
Baptist body in America, was once
the popular pastor of the local
church. He voluntarily resigned his
charge here, after marrying a Chris
tian county girl, a daughter of DR..
j. D. Clardy, and for the last Is
years has engaged in journalism. DR..
Prestridge is almost certain to be an
officer of the Worlds Congress-.
