PRESDYTERIANS SHOW
Big INCREASE IN STATE
DAWSON PASTOR REPORTS A
SPLENDID AND HELPFUL SEES
SION OF PRESBYTERY.

Rev. w. P. McElroy, pastor of the
Dawson Presbyterian church, return
ed home Saturday from Attapulgus,
where he attended a session of the
Macon Presbytery, of which the Daw-
son church is a part.
This was the regular fall meeting
of this court of the Presbyterian
church. It's next meeting will be
held in Sylvester in April, 1917.
Mr.. McElroy reports that the mem
bership of the Presbyterian church in
Georgia has increased 1851 in the
past two years, which is six times the
increase of the two years previous.
These facts were brought out in an
address made by Rev. Fl. McQ.
Shields before the Presbytery.
The meeting at Attapulgus was es-
pecially interesting. Besides the adj
dress made by Rev. Shields there was
stirring missionary sermon preach
ed by Rev. Craig of Albany A very
interesting and informing report was
read by DIR. l. S. McElroy of Column
bus. He is the chairman of the com
mittee on foreign missions, and his
report was very encouraging.
The work of Protestant churches
in Brazil and the attitude of the Ro-
man Catholic church of that country
was very ably handled by Rev. Gas
ton Boyle, missionary to Brazil. Mr..
Boyle was born in Brazil, being the
son of missionary to that country.
He was educated in this country and
returned to take up the work of his
father at his death about ten years
ago. He is looked upon as an author
ity upon the religious conditions of
South America.

SNAKES AIDED THE
PREACHER IN SERVICE
REPTILES ROLLED OUT OF FIRE
PLACE AS PARSON LAM
BASTED STRONG DRINK.

The shepherd of a flock of "Holy
Rollers" who worship in a log meet
ing house near Nashville, Ind, was
unwittingly supplied with a concrete
example in his sermon a few nights
ago. He was fiaying strong drink,
and just as the words at biteth like
a serpent and stingeth like an adder"
rolled out of his mouth a procession
of serpents started to roll out of the
old fireplace behind him. One of the
church pillars saw the first example"
emerge from the fireplace but he was
afraid to mention it until his vision
was confirmed by the screams of
women and children members of the
congregation.
The serpents, blacksnakes, copper
heads and rattlers, continued to roll
out of the miniature fiery furnace
until there were dozens of them
squirming about on the floor. The
congregation took to the backs of the
pews and hurled every movable
thing, including song books, bibles
and contribution boxes, at the in
vaders.
Young Men Used Revolvers.
Several young men drew revolvers
and opened a fusilade. With the
first shot the parson and four women
tainted. The snakes finally with
drew, leaving many dead behind. One
of the "Holy Rollers" was shot
through the foot. The unexpected
event broke up the meeting and the
parson neglected the benediction.
The meeting was being held in the
only log church in Indiana, which for
more than three years had been de-
serted. Recently the "Holy Rollers"
took possession and it is believed the
snakes were smoked out when blaze
was kindled in the fireplace, the first
in three years.

Washington.-Th visit of Ambassa-

ters, at the personal invitation of EN-
peror William was regarded in Wash

reply to the American submarine de-
mands.
An administration official familiar
with the exchanges between Washing

the United States and Germany be-
cause of the latest acute phase Of the

Secretary of State Lansing con-
firmed the report that Mr.. Gerard had
gone to the front to meet the emperor.

The Interpretation generally placed
on the German mission was that EN-
