DEDICATION
Of Calvary Baptist Church
On Sunday

At all three of the services which
were held Sunday in connection with
the dedication of the new Calvary
Baptist church, South Mulberry
street, there was a very large attend
ance of the members of the congrega-
tion and interested people.
Rev. A. M. Thomas, pastor of the
GAINESVILLE church for 25 years and
president of the state convention, was
the honored guest of the day and Of
ficiated as master of ceremonies. His
morning sermon, "The Church of
Cod" was pronounced a gem in
thought and was very helpful,
At 2:30 in the afternoon, Rev. j. R.
Jones of Newark preached sterling
sermon Rev. Jones has occupied his
present pulpit for over Is years, and
his long experience has ripened his
viewpoint, so that his utterances
were of incalculable value to the con.
gregation.
At the evening service, Rev. G. R..
Dye, pastor of the First Baptist
church of this city, opened with a
scripture lesson and then offered
prayers. Devotionals consumed the
first half-hour of the evening.
Rev. George Madison of Columbus
gave a very helpful and interesting
talk on the National Calvary Baptist
church, telling of the number of men,
bers and the total valuation of all
property
He was followed by Rev. Jones who
addressed the congregation on "The
Duty of Deacons." In his talk, he
thoroughly outlined the services owed
by the deacons to the church in a
clear and concise manner.
Rev. Thomas, master of cere-
monies, then spoke on "The Duties of
the Trustees" In connection with
this inspiring talk, he turned over
the keys of the new church to the
trustees, thereby completing the ded-
ication of the church.
The evening was brought to close
by few remarks from Rev. T. w.
Woodson of the local A. M. f.. church
and Rev. A. Grayson, pastor of the
Calvary Baptist church.
A feature of all three services was
the splendid music which was in
charge of Mrs. Walter Mayo There
we're several solos sung by talented
members of the church, and two solos
by the pastor Rev. Grayson, were of
especial merit,
The new church furnishes a com
modious and comfortable spot for
worshipping and is monument to
the untirlng efforts of the congrega-
ton, many of whom assisted in the
actual building of the edifice.

OF William Jones From The
City Lookup
No Evidence To ImpIiCate
Him With The Death
Of MaIIOy

William Jones, who has been held
in the city lookup since the death
Thursday night of his roommate,
William Malloy, was given his uncon-
ditional release Saturday afternoon
because of the total lack of evidence
which would tend to implicate him In
Malloy's death.
During his three days imprison-
ment, Jones emphatically denied all
knowledge of how Malloy sustained
the cut in the back of his head which
resulted in the formation of clot of
blood on his brain. He protested his
innocence all the way through of any
connection with the matter.
Chief of Police Parker stated Mon
day that there was a possibility of
Malloy's having fallen against the
window sill in a fit without Jones
knowing anything about it at the i'm
mediate time. He further added that
such might have occurred and Jones,
learning of it later, might have been
so frightened that he avoided the sub
ject when grilled by the police.
Jones was taken to his rooms Sat
urday afternoon by Chief Parker and
the piece of skin and tuft of hair
clinging to the window sill pointed
out to him. This sight did not affect
the man at all. He pleaded total ig
norance and again averred his limo
cence.
AS there was no prospect of cor
oner's finding which would implicate
Jones in Malloy's death, the man was
released Saturday afternoon with nC
conditions attaching.

If He Can Be Of Service To-

Former Governor Will Stand
As The Leader

Columbus, O., March 13-Madison
county Democrats, who are backing
their fellow citizen, Chester Bryan, as
a candidate for state treasurer, think
they will be able, for the first time in
history, to carry their county for the
state ticket easily if James M, Cox is
persuaded to stand for governor. They
consider he was almost persuaded,
when at their annual banquet, Thurs
day night, he said:
III / am convinced that can be of
service to Pres. Wilson in securing
Tor him the electral vote of Ohio
will consider the call to duty and meet
the demand to stand as the leader Of
the militant Democracy in the state
this year."
This statement was made in the
course of a speech In which the form
er governor placed the present admin
istration in deadly parallel with his
own, and eulogized President Wilson.
ex-governor Cox stated, however, that
he had no desire again to depart from
private life and that he had no per-
sonal ambition to serve. There is no
more honor in being governor twice
than there is in being governor once"
he said. 81 have desired only that the
work of my administration would stand
the test of time. Few people can
know the drudgery and the care that
attaches to the office of governor at
the time a new constitution is going
into effect. The Office has no allure
ment to draw me from preference
for private life"
