ment this sum. This will be ample
under the requirements Of the gov

powerful arm Of the federal govern
ment will be at work for twelve
months in the county to eradicate ev-
cry vestige of this dread enemy of
every farmer in the corn belt.

ell were made secretaries.

brief address in which he reported
the results of his visit to Nashville
with the committee of the Board Of
Trade and told what must be done to
secure the experimental work here.
He declared that the county could not
and would not fail, sentiment that
was applauded He also said that
the county board of health, Of which
he was member, would provide for
portion Of the expenses incident to
the work.
Judge Mcknight was followed by
Charles P. Hatcher, who aroused a
great deal Of enthusiasm in his plea
for support for the movement. Mr..
Hatcher read the list of subscriptions
from the business men Of the city
and then opened the books for pledg-
es from the farmers. First there
came the $25 pledges, the $40, then
SIS and next $40 and finally SIS with
the result that over 5000 was sub
scribed.
The chairman was authorized to
name a committee Of one in each dis
trict to obtain additional pledges and
w. F. Anderson, president Of the
Board of Trade, was appointed trustee
to collect and handle the funds sub
scribed. On motion of Judge Nc
knight, Chairman Moore and Presi-
dent Anderson were authorized and
directed to notify Commissioner Peck
and DR.. White that the county had
met the conditions necessary to OBJ
tain experimental work.

COLUMBIAN HAS
NARROW ESCAPE
HARLAND HUNTER IN STIRRING
ENCOUNTER WITH A pEcA.
TUR NEGRO.

The following from the Decaturs
Daily will be Of interest here where
Mr.. Hunter Is well known, having
been with Frank G. Cook for several
years. He is son of Squire Hunter,
OF the fourth district. The Decatur
paper gives the following bit of ntor
nation:
"Harland H. Hunter narrowly e.
capped serious injury yesterday after
noon when he was struck over the
head with an empty beer bottle ID
the hands of a negro, when Mr.. Hunt
er was removing some furniture from
the homes Of the negro.
THE furniture is said to belong b
the Morgan Furniture Co., for whom
mr.. Hunter works, and he was car
rying out the instructions of his en-
ployer when he was attacked.
"Mr. Hunter. however, proved that
ne is possible white hope, for even
after he had been dazed by the bloV
with the bottle, he laid the black up
with a few well directed licks."

Is able to pick out his man and get
him." declared Evangelist Lewis in
his sermon on Gods Revival" at the
tabernacle last night. He said there
are two kinds of REVEALS, one mans
and the other Gods. The former is
superficial and temporary in results
and consists mostly of froth and
foam. Gods revival, he declared, is
real awakening of Gods people that
makes personal workers of them and
keeps them at it. Il am opposed to
present day evangelism" he said.
1.-THE way many evangelists work
makes conditions worse rather than
better. am crank on Gods work
and l don't want revival that is
not built on that. God wants to
, strengthen His people first Gods
revival does not find its source in in
tellectual power or fine music or or
atory, as good as these things are.
These are used by Him, but a real
revival Is God Himself working"
An audience that exceeded the
highest expectations Of the workers
was present last night, and they
prophesied that few nights would
see the tabernacle full. The place
is brilliantly lighted With electricity
and carpeted with sawdust. There
are comfortable folding seats to ac-
commodate eight hundred people.
The singing was pleasing feature of
the meeting last night. The choir
and audience took hold in loyal fash
ion. Prof. Wall delighted the audi
ence with solo. He has been un-
der the instruction of some of the
best teachers in the country and is
admirably adapted to this work both
as to training and temperament.
Between thirty and forty men at
tended the first service at the court
house at 1880 yesterday and listen
ed to one of Mr.. Lewis "Hot Shots"
and the men were not disappointed in
what they heard. These meetings
will be held each morning and no
doubt the court room will soon be
filled to capacity.
Tonight has been set aside az rally
night for the church members of the
city and vicinity, and it is hoped that
every member Of the various churches
will be present. Mr.. Lindgren will
speak tonight.
A conference of the evangelists
and pastors is being held this after
noon to formulate plans for the work.
Announcements for Sunday will be
made following this conference. The
evangelists declare they are here to
serve the churches and the commune
ty and SO are seeking the help and
counsel Of those interested.

BERS IN THE FUTURE.

The Columbia band and orchestra
have secured another director. G. G.
Gatchall, of Collinsville, Okla. is his
name, and he comes with the reputa-
ton Of being an expert musician. Joe
Greenfield left some weeks ago, and
the band has been without the SER
vices Of leader since then. In addi-
ton to directing the band and orches-
ira, Mr. Gatchall will play the cornet.
The band has had considerable ex.

of Mr.. Greenfield, and there should
not be the trouble in training it that
there was to him. The members IN
tend to maintain the existence of both
the band and the orchestra as sepa-

Senator Bryan and
the Court of Appeals.

It would be a fine compliment to
Senator Bryan and TO the state OF
Florida should he be appointed to the
vacancy in the United States circuit
court of appeals. 1t would also mean
a life position for the senator.
Florida, however, would be dis
tinct loser by the appointment. Ma
than p. Bryan is today one Of the big
men of the senate. He is, with the
possible exception of Mallory, the
ablest man whom the state has sent
to Washington Since the time of Chas.
W. Jones. He is the most valuable
man to Florida whom the state could
have there now. His continued SER
vice in the senate will increase his
value to Florida and to the nation.
We wish Senator Bryan well. He
would make a splendid judicial Off
Ger. But The Journal would much
prefer to see him elected to another
term in the senate than to see him
wearing the ermine of federal court.
