HOSPITALS DOORS NEVER CLOSED ID
 DESTITUTE SICK
Under Management of Hos pital Association, Insti-
 tuition Does Work.
(By Merle Wells.)

: The Davis Hospital was opened in August, 1910, under tte management of the Hospital and Benevolent asso- citation. A training school for nurses was opened there at the same time. Since the hospital was first operated, up to the present time 3,133 patients have been handled.
 Jefferson county gave $10,000 for the annex to the hospital. Every year the county makes an appropria- tion for the care of the county pa tients. These patients are cared for at the lowest cost possible.
 The amount of charity work done by the hospital is imp6 ssible to esti- mate. Never has sick person been turned away from it's doors, although it has no endowment. Different or ganizations of the city have cared for many of the charity patients.
 There is growing fund, the Mary Roberts fund, now in the treasury. It was started in June, 1912, when a poor woman, Mary Roberts, left $7.5o to start an endowment. This money and tablec1oth, which was sold for $500, and was donated by Miss Mollie Mccoy, was the nucleus of the fund, which has increased to $1,500. AS soon as a sufficient amount is secured this will be used to endow bed for poor women.
 Recently number of rooms have been repainted and decorated by the generosity of several friends. The Hicks family have decorated the Hicks ward.
 Several citizens of this city and county have remembered the Davis hospital in their wills among them were the late Mir. Charles Veil, MT Phillip Jenkins, Mayor Davis and MT R. 4. Rogers.

No MAN CAN PREACH,
 EXCEPT BY COPS HELP
''Transfigured Sacrifice" Is Subject of Lesson Conveyed in Sermon by
 Rev. McPhersOn at Baptist Mission.
(By Doris Shandy.)

Preaching yesterday on the sub- ject, "Transfigured Sacrific," Rev. MT. McPherson, pasto. of the Beech street Baptist mission, declared that no man can preach unless God helps him. O
 Gods people canno: be what they with the power of the Holy Spirit he said. ''As followers of Jesus Christ, the thing that will solve most of our trouble is the Holy Spirit.
 God calls men into His work. If a man refuses, and he's failure what about the individual who re- fuses His love? His life can never be what it should be. It never will be what God desired it to be- God wants the best that is in us-the best of our time, the best of our money and the best of our services.
 ''In treating the transfigured sacr;- flee, there is this lessol,-no man has ever succeeded unless he placed him. self in the power of the Holy Spirit.
 "A story is told of young girl in Indiana who felt herself called by the Holy Spirit. The problem aroee which was the greatest missionary, the mother who stayed at home, or the girl who went over the sea.
 "That is what mean by transfig ured sacrifice. That is the secret of Billy Sundays meetings. Whatever he is told by the Holy Spirit, he does. The man or woman who will do what. the Holy Spirit tells them to do, may do a great deal in the work of the kingdom.
 "God usually calls the fellow into His work who is trying to keep out of it. With the great promises of God, we can indeed be helpers in this work, and keep a place in the salva- tion of the Lord. We can do our part, however little fl may be-"

RELIGIOUS FANATIC
 TAKEN TO ASYLUM
Joe Bonner Becomes Unmanageable, and Five Men Ire Required to Place
 Him in Shackles for Journey.
(Ry Doc McCain.)


 Joe Bonner, negro, well known among members of his race, was talk en to the state hospital for nervous diseases Saturday evening, Deputy Sheriff Henry Williams making the trip with the black.
 Bonner was arrested by city police officers Friday, after neighbors had been alarmed by his peculiar ac- tions. The negro was believed t0 have gone insane, and this belief was borne out by an examination by the county physician, whereupon the necessary commitment was issued by the county court. Confined at the county jail Bonner became violent, and 1t was necessary to call in the services of five men to tie him into his bed and to prevent him from do- ing harm to himself and others.
 Bonner is believed to have become unbalanced as a result of constant. attendance at a series of ''revivals' being conducted in tho western end of the city by visiting negro who claims to be preacher The author. ities have been informed that other negroes who have been attending the "revivals" have been lnduly affected, and the preacher" will likely be in- vestisated.
