newspapers from all parts OF the
United States, was completed Satur-

He will remain in New York about
a month when he will proceed back
to Florida by way Of the Hudson

WARM IN CHURCH CIRCLES.
Politics end Religion Won't Mix.
Conference Ends in Row.

dispatch from Augusta, Ga,
| last week giyes the following very
interesting account of a church con-
ference:
The elimination of bitter factional
strife and political differences in
the congregation of the Rev. G.. M.
Wilkinson, pastor of Berean Baptist
church, in the mill district Of Au-
gusta, was stormy conference on
Sunday morning, at which the lie
passed between two leaders Of op-
posing elements, the chairman's new
straw hat was smashed by the we'll
directed umbrella blow of a furious
woman who didn't favor an adjourn
ment, and excitement ran to a fever
pitch.
AT Sunday services a resolution
was introduced 10 request Mr.. Will
kinson's resignation. Somebody
moved that the "horrid paper" be
pasted under the table cover, and be-
fore the chairman could catch his
breath there were half g dozen con-
flicting motions before the house.
Then pandemonium broke loose. One
member ~rloved that the meeting be
adjourned, and the opposing faction
leader spraug to his feet with ano-
ther suggestion. The two locked
horns, called each other liars and
started outdoors to fight it out.
When they disappeared around the
corner, Chairman Banks, himself a
magistrate and a man Of peace, de-
clared the conference at an end. Rap!
Mrs. Scoggins umbrella smashed his
new straw hat, and things got warm
again. Finally peace was restored,
but the grand ship Of Zion is a bat
tered hulk at Berean Baptist church,
and there are the wise ones who
opine that she'll never sail again.

A "Catchy" Advertisement.

A minister down in Alabama found
his people too poor to purchase
hymn books, says an exchange, so
being offered the same book free by
a patent medicine house, provided
they be allowed to insert their adver-
tisement, ordered three dozen for the
congregation. He was elated on see
ing them to find no ad in same. The
next Sunday he distributed the books,
telling his brethren his good fortune,
and requested them to sing page 12O.
His chagrin may be imagined when
they sang as follows:
"Hark, the heavenly angels sing,
Johnson's pills are just the thing,
And the angelic voices meek and
mild,
Two for man and one for a child"

Dollar Bills by Weight.
(KanSas City Starr

Dollar bills are worth almost
their weight in gold" bank presi-
dent said the other day to a depos-
itor.
Yes, I suppose they come in
handy for change and are easy to
carry" the depositor replied alb
sently.
"No, l was speaking literally" the
bank president said. I'VE got into
an argument in the bank here the
other day as to how much a dollar
bill weighed. A $40 gold piece
weighs $40 grains. We found that
twenty-seven crisp, new one dollar
bills weigh the same as a twenty
dollar gold piece. We tested some
bills that had been in use and found
that it took but twenty-six Of them
to balance the gold piece. I sup
pose that twenty-six used bills gath
er an accumulation of dirt in pass
ing from hand to hand that weighs
about what one new bill does"

Fat hens and lots Of eggs are not
apt to go together.
Cooked beans are rich feed for

Hold on with the oil meal now,
unless you want to force your hens

All grain is not a perfect ration,

Boiled potatoes mixed with milk
are splendid for growing chicks.
Good for laying hens, too.
Drop off the meat rations in grass

JEALOUSY LOSES MANS LIFE.
Rutland Justified in killing Cox,
who Attacked With Hatchet.
(Atlanta Georgian, 1Sth.)

With his marriage ct for next
Tuesday, an insane jealousy on the
part OF l.. p. Cox Is now believed to
have been the underlying motive that
prompted his display Of intense ha-
tired for the two Rutland brothers
and his attack on them, resulting in
Cox being shot to death Thursday af-
ternoon by Oscar e. Rutland in the
Paris Electric Theatre in Whitehall
street
After several witnesses had testi-
fled that Cox advanced on Rutland
with hatchet, Justice Of the Peace
Orr, before whom preliminary
hearing was had Friday morning at
O'Clock, promptly freed the young
man, remarking that this was one
of the clearest cases OF self.defense
he had ever heard.
Although nothing was brought out
in the trial touching on the hereto
fore hidden cause of the tragedy, it
has developed that Cox was jealous
Of the brother Of the slayer, John w.
Rutland, manager of the commissary
Of the Aragon Mills at Aragon, Ga.
When Cox saw Rutland and his bro
ther, Oscar, in Whitehall street on
Thursday afternoon his jealousy
leaped like a flame. Aiming him
self with a hatchet, he is said to
have picked quarrel with John
Rutland, but serious trouble was
prevented by j. b. Prater, of 81
East Mitchell street, Cox's business
partner, who took Rutland away
from the scene.
Apparently maddened to an un-
controllable degree, Cox Is said to
have then attacked Oscar Rutland
who had gone into the Paris Theatre,
and was in turn shot to death.
To Marry Next Tuesday.
Cox, it is stated. was to have been
married next Tuesday to Mrs. Lula
Rogers, milliner, who is now stop
ping at the Kingston Hotel in Trinity
avenue. Mrs. Rogers formerly work
ed for John Rutland N the Aragon
stores, and this is believed to have
formed the basis for the jealousy of
her fiance. Cox, it Is said, was ieal-
Gus of any one who paid attention to
his fiance and his feelings are said
to have been inflamed short time
ago when John Rutland gave Mrs.
Rogers a strong letter of recommen-
dation. The season was over at the
Aragon Mills, and, as Mrs. Rogers
services were no longer needed, she
Was given this recommendation to
aid her In getting another position.
Bride-elcct Wceps Over Body.
Mrs. Rogers visited the undertake
ing parlors Friday morning and wept
as she gazed at the lifeless form of
the man she was soon to have wed.
John Rutland, in speaking Of the
matter to a Georgian reporter, said: ::
Il had seen Cox but a few times
on the occasion Of his visits to Ara
gon to see Mrs. Rogers, and he had
no cause to hate me. ! am man of
family and there was no reason for
him to be Jealous of me. | can ac-
count for his wild attack on my bro
ther and myself in no other way than
to say that | think he was crazy. My
brother had never even seen him be-
fore and didn't know his name"
