$4,000 RAISED TO BUILD
CORDELE BAPTIST CHURCH
Edifice to Cost $25,000-Funds Com
ing i'm Fast-Expect to Have To-
tai Amount Before Contract is Let

Cordele, Ga, Oct. 3.-An attempt
that is perhaps unparalleled in the
history of modern church building,
that of soliciting and actually having
, in hand fund of $4,000 with which
t. construct a new church building
before letting the contract for the
work, has practically been accomplish
cd by the Baptist denomination of Co..
dele.
Though the subscriptions to tn:
fund were not due until October :,
more than $4,000 had been paid in be-
fore the date of maturity, and approx
imately $4,000 is now reported paid
in.
1t was determined by the pastor.
Rev: ]. H. Coin, and the members OF
tine church that the contract for the
construction of the new edifice would
hot be given until every penny was
raised, and the originality of the plan
struck a popular chord among the peo-
pie, many of who were not members
OF the church, donating literally TO
the cause.
In view of the remarkable success
that has been experienced. an en-
thusiastHc thanksgiving service was
held at the church last night, several
hundred being present. The treas
urer of the church building committee,
made full report and short addresses
were delivered by the pastor and mem
bers of the church.

ton from the Northern to the South
ern States, and each year that move
ment takes with it greater numbers of
the Northern people.
From Maryland to Arizona, all
through the Southern States belt, this
influx of the Northern people is well
marked and defined, and in states like
Florida the percentage of Northerne-s
is very high and growing with every
iyear.
The majority of these newcomers are
agriculturists, seeking low-priced
lands in milder climate, and ready TO
lend thei energies and use their
means in promoting the development
Of the state and the section in which
they have taken up their abodes.
Within the past few weeks the Ger
man steamship companies have ar
ranged to place in service additional
steamships from Europe to the ports
of Baltimore and New Orleans, thus
increasing the facilities for immigrants
to come through these ports into the
! United States.
This cannot fail to give the South
| thousands of additional cultivators of
the soil, and whether they come to
purchase lands to cultivate for them
selves or simply to labor for Others
who own the acres, they become valu-
able factors in the development Ct
Southern lands.

INTEREST IN EASTERN
AND WESTERN FARMING
LANDS.

With the disappearance of low-pric-
ed lands in the Western states and ia
rising prices of farm products in all
the markets OF the world, the lands Of
the Southern States are attracting tn,
attention of our stock raisers and
farmers, and their value as producing
acreage is now being more appreci-
ated.
1t is evident that for cattle, sheep
and hogs these Southeastern lands
must be relied upon to supply the
country to a far greater extent than
has been the case during the last ha,f
century and that millions of acres in
the middle Atlantic and the south At
lantic States are available for STOCK
raising purposes is undeniable.
The finely watered well-sheltered,
rich pasture lands of the states of
Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia,
Kentucky, Tennessee, North and South
Carolina and Georgia will support mil
lions of cattle. sheep and hogs, and
with increase in the number of agri-
culturists cultivating the soil and pro-
ducing corn, wheat, oats and alfalfa to
a greater amount than at present,
these herds and fiocks, reared so
closely to the city markets, can be
made as profitable as the animals rails
ed one or two thousand miles away in
the Western States and brought long
distances to these same markets.
The rise in value of Western lands
has made these Eastern acres com
paratively cheap 1t has changed the
conditions which prevailed in the last
century, and which populated the
West through settlers from the East
ern States, as well as immigrants
from every country in Europe
There has been for the last five
years a decided movement of popula-

If any man desires to find out all
about himself let him get into a hot
political fight. The chances are that
some of the things he will learn will
be surprising to him. A by-product o.
the Sulzer impeachment proceedings
in New York is the charge that State
Senator Patten of Long Island City
is not citizen of the United States
and therefore has no right to his seat
in the Senate and no right TO sit as q
member of the court of impeachment.
He was born in England and it is
charged has never been naturalized.
His father became citizen of the
ITuited States and he has said that he
had right to vote on that account
He always has considered himself an

Now he is told in the charges of Gov

Because of the fact that the news

HEIRS EXPECT
SEARCH FOR BARBER To
BARE Pre- NUPTIAL PLOT
Relatives Think That Lump Will Tell
Woman Held on Poison Charge
Planned to Wed Him on Her Hus-
bands Death.

II the tireless search which is being
directed by Atlanta lawyers discov-
ers in New York a man named Fred
Lump, the prosecution in the case
against Mrs. Mary Belle Crawford,
who is charged with poisoning her
husband. Joshua B. Crawford, thinks
a pre-nuptial plot against Crawford
can be proved.
The alleged plot was between Mrs.
Crawford, then Mrs. Savage, and
Lump. She would marry the wealthy
Crawford. obtain his money. and then
marry Lump, say her accusers.
Lump is a barber by trade and a.
Bohemian by nativity. He Is sup
posed to be in New York, and in
that city detectives in the employ
of the prosecution have been at work
for several days. Every message that
comes from them, however, Is one
of failure.
Colonel James Makes Charge.
The charge of a plot first was made
by Col. J. s. James, who is attorney
for the contesting Crawford heirs.
who ordered the arrest OF Lump.
Colonel James said that Lump admit
ted his being in Atlanta at the time
Of Crawford's death. and that other
testimony valuable to the prosecution
was given by him in deposition sev-
eral weeks ago. But present search
for the Bohemian barber has proved
fruitless.
Colonel James points to Mrs. E. c.
Bursener as one of the witnesses Of
the prosecution to substantiate the
murder plot charge. Mrs. Bursener,
II is claimed, will testify that she
frequently heard Mrs Crawford say
that she would marry Crawford. get
his money, and later run away with
Lump. The prosecution will seek to
prove also by Mrs. Gertrude A. Paint
er, it is said, that there was a def
mite agreement to this plan existent
between Mrs Crawford and Lump
The forces that are trying to sad
die Mrs. Crawford with the murder
charge are scoring heavily in the
closely civil suit Heirs of
Joshua B, Crawford, trying to break
the will by which the widow received
the bulk Of the estate, charging I'M
due influence have produced a num-
Der OF witnesses to swear to an an
tagonism between Crawford and Mrs
Mary B. Crawford
One Of the witnesses was Mrs. L.
c. Dillingsley, who testified that
Joshua B. Crawford said, time and
again, that he would not marry the
woman. This statement was ELECTED
I'm the attempt to prove that Craw-
ford was not rational. and probably
was intoxicated, when he married
Mrs Crawford.
Drunkenness Is Charged.
Mrs Dillingsley. who said she lived
in the Crawford home on West Peach
tree street before Joshua Crawford's
death, told of instances of alleged
cruelty on Mrs Crawfords part, d.
