NO BILL IN MARTIN CASE
GRAND JURY IN UNITED STATES
COURT FAILED TO INDICT
RANDOLPH COUNTY MAN,

The grand jury in the United
States court, in session at Columbus,
has returned no-bill in the case of
A. l.. Martin, the Randolph county
man against whom a charge of using
the mails with intent to defraud was
recently brought.
Mr.. Martin was in Dawson Mon
day on his way from Columbus to
his home in Coleman, and called at
The News office, His explanation
Of the circumstances which caused his
arrest, and one which the action of
the United States grand jury has
borne out, is such that it is apparent
no violation of the federal statutes
was committed.
Mr.. Martin states that he sent a
check to a Chicago house ordering a
shipment of whiskey. The firm
wrote him that they did not accept
personal checks, and he then wrote
to them cancelling the order, and at
the same time directed his bank not
to honor the check in case it was pre-
sented. 1t seems that the check was
deposited in Chicago for collection,
however, but was not honored by the
bank at Coleman. The United States
authorities were notified of the mat
ter, presumably by the Chicago
house, and the arrest of Mr.. Martin
followed.
Mr.. B. w. Rish, cashier of the
bank in Coleman, went to Columbus
as a witness in the case. He said
Mr.. Martin had plenty of money on
deposit to cover the check at the
time, but that he had instructed the
bank not to pay it.
Mr.. Martin informed The News
that he had already taken steps to
sue the Chicago firm for $4,000
damages,

THE pulpit PRINCE i"
BISHOP GALLOWAY PREACHED
NOTABLE SERMON AT SOUTH
GEORGIA CONFERENCE.

The crowning event of the recent
session of the South Georgia Con-
ference at Quitman was the sermon
by Bishop G. B. Galloway. Bishop
Galloway presided over the confer
ence when it met in Dawson several
years ago, and at that time deliv-
cred a sermon that is yet remembered
with pleasure and benefit by many
of our people. At Quitman he am
ply sustained his reputation as the
pulpit prince" of the Methodist
church. 1t seemed truly an inspired
utterance to his audience, and the
demonstration of deep emotion on
the part Of the conference members
was one of the most remarkable ever
seen anywhere.
Bishop GallOway's Sermon.
Bishop Galloways sermon was
based on a clause of Isaiah, verse
twelve, chapter eleven: "And he
shall set up an ensign for the ma
tons"
Notwithstanding recent reports of
his i'll health Bishop Galloway spoke
over an hour in vigorous voice and
seemed far stronger at the end.
Speaking of the Biblical prohets he
remarked that it is most interesting
to study the characteristics of the
men who did great causes, who were
called by God to carry out His de-
signs. There were gentle and meek
leaders, or men of high courage and
bold hearts, each differing in gifts,
yet each fitting the ways in which
ne was called to go. The man and
the hour meet and when ages call the
heroes come"
isaiah, he said, caught the high
vision of Christ lifted on mountain
and all men gathered to him. He,
more than any prophet, had a world
view of Christ, not as a leader of
one people, but of all people, Jew
ana Gentle, alike. And the Scrip
lures, he said, are replete with
names which try to describe the uni
'eISaI characteristics of Christ; all

A CARGO OF 5000 CATS.
Japan Imports Ship Load of the
Rat ChaserS,

Japan, it seems, is infested with
rats, and the reason is explained by
a Paris contemporary, viz: that the
japanese cats, which are not prolific,
are pampered to an extraordinary de-
gree. During the last few days, the
chronicler proceeds, a ship has left
one of the principal German ports
with 5000 cats on board. These on
arrival are to be settled in the vari-
GUS maritime towns of the mikado's
dominions, and we further learn that
the present consignment of cats is
to be followed by four others each
of 5000. The name of the princi-
pal German port is not given.

, that is beautiful or needfuI in ma
ture has been brought to this task
and He is called the morning star
and the water of life.
He spoke of the poetic. Vital part
the ensign plays in history-only a
piece of silk or bunting, but it has
determined the destinies of nations
and changed the currents of history.
In the inspired vision of the seer
Christ is the spiritual ensign of all
life.
This idea was developed by the
bishop, with wealth of elouuence
impossible to describe, and the dis
course throughout was delight, not
only for the thought conveyed, but
for it's literary vehicle.
Peace Between the Realms.
One of the important utterances
was that loyalty to the ensign of
Christ does not mean disloyalty to
our country here. The realm of God
and the realm of Caesar are here, but
there should be peace between them.
And the better Christian a man is
the purer he will be as a citizen.
The country needs not less but
more conservation to this ensign of
the nations" declared the speaker
And its salvation lies in allegiance
to these divine principles"
Another notable passage was that
in which he said "St. Paul's great
mind was open to every window of
learning and to every phrase of life.
He did not hesitate to quote from
the great heather poets; he was not
afraid to admit to his mind world
knowledge, but he held with unrelax-
ing grasp the great fundamental
principles of christianity. This en-
sign, he declared, is the symbol of
that perfect liberty which men have
discussed and sought ali the ages.
He feared that we may lower the
standard of our religious life in our
dread of fanaticism and thought it a
greater evil to go to the extreme of
indifferentism. He also regretted the
| Iapsing of the old religious termi-
nology used by our fathers. He
charged his hearers to be more rever-
ent of the church, to be careful Of
what they said of it or permitted
other to say to him. He reminded
them that the church is the Bride
of Christ and should have the deli
cate reverence that is due the bride.
The mark of the great soul is
found in a worldwide view, he de-
clared. All of us are limited by our
provincialism; we live in a corner.
The greatness of man is in his abil-
ity to take a large world view, yet
the great men, Caesar, Luther and
the rest. were limited by their ma
tional ideals, Roman or German.
But Christ cannot be thought of as
belonging either to the Orient or
the Occident-He is the ensign of all
nations, and the African leaves his
fetish. the Chinaman his idol to
turn to him. All arts are inspired
by the Christ thought and all minds
attracted by it.

Some weeks ago 1t was announced
that the Gray Lumber Co. were 60

OF hauling lumber from their mill at
Morgan to a shipping point on the
Central railroad, and now the CAL
noun County Courier reports that
actual construction has begun and is

The name of the firm is the
Morgan Lumber Company instead of
the Gray Lumber Company, but the
stockholders of the new project are
nearly the same as of the Gray Lum-
Der Company, and the management is
practically the same. 1t is said that
the crossties and rails being laid for
the tram road from the sawmill at
Morgan to Williamsburg are of a
great deal better grade than are US
ually used for trans, which indicates
that the road is being built with a
view to permanency and strengthens

Stock of a Big Railroad.
In the disclosure that of the S.
739 holders Of stock in the Pennsyl-
vania railroad $4,000, or Al per
cent, are women is food for surprise
to the common idea of the ownership
of a corporation and for self-congrat-
ulation to the managers of the rail-
road, $148,OOO,OOO is given as the
aggregate of these women's holdings.
BY nature more cautious than
man the average woman nclines to
investment rather than to specula-
ton, to hoard rather than to risk.
The list of Pennsylvania stockhold-
ers is proof of this feminine trait.
Investments in railroad stocks and
kindred securities indicate that some
moneyed women are becoming close
financial calculators, with an eye
open for fractional advantages in in
come. These are women who handle
their own resources of support.

HAD BURGLAR PROOF WEDDING

Burglar-proof weddings are now

a policeman in uniform stationed at

house either protected by heavy

daughter, Grace, was married to Carl

firm of G. w. Klappert & Co.
The precautions against burglars
taken by the brides father were due
to visit which housebreakers paid
him on Friday night last. These bur-

lowering themselves from the roof
of an adjoining apartment house.
Their visit Melted them about 81 900
