Special to The Georgian. Mllledgevllle. Ga.. Nov. 26.—Ortho doxy had its day of triumph In the North Georgia conference here yes terday In the powerful sermon preached by Bishop Seth Ward. The discourse was a powerful one and had a marvel ous effect on the vast audience, which was held spellbound by the eloquence of the matchless young-looking giant of the Southern Methodist church. Each member of the congregation hung onto his words as he expounded the great subject he had under discussion, and hardly had he finished when the congregation, many of whom were moved to tears, rushed forward and made their way to the platform. The bishop tried to get to his seat, but couldn't. Old gray-hatred inen, by the score, rushed upon the platform and threw their arms around the neck of the young-looking bishop, and In a short time he was almost dragged to his knees by the weight of those who. were clinging to him. As tho last words left his lips the entire assemblage of over 1.000 people manifested spiritual enthusiasm. All present made an effort to reach the man responsible for the scene. Closing Words. In dosing his sermon, Bishop Ward said: In conclusion, let us catdi some of the enthusiasm and feeling of triumph of the book of Revelation. The king doms of evil are doomed and destined fall. All the Babylons will eventu- lly go down In defeat. The liquor power shall go down; corruption in public nnd private life shall go down: avarice, that grips the church so hard, shall go down: entrenched heathenism, In all Its forms, shall go down. His tory shall end witl\ an echo and arch angels shall re-echo the notes of the song, 'Hallelulla for the Lord God Om nipotent Reigns,* and He reigns be cause He ha* conquered'by the path that leads to the bloody cross.” Epworth League Service.

Mr. Guille preached hla first sermons at Westminster Sunday morning and night and a call was extended to him by the committee. He Is a brother of Rev. George E. Guille. of Augusta, whose refusal to accept a call to Westminster several weeks ago was a source of disappointment. An Interesting Incident la connected with the call of Mr. B. F. Guille to Atlanta. Mr. Jacob Brown, a member of the Central church, went to a great church meeting at Indianapolis several weeks ago. When he returned he met E. D. Davis, of the Westminster church, on the street. Mr. Davis saw* him coining and dodged Into a doorway, for he was disappointed at the refusal of Rev. George E. Guille to come to Atlanta and did not w*ant to talk about it. But Mr. Brow n saw* him In passing and fol lowed him Into the crowd. "By. the way,” he said, "I met a brother of your Mr. Guille over In Ih- dlanapolls and he w*ants to come south. He tpld me he had heard of the scarcity of ministers In the Presbyterian church in this section and had prayed that he might be called. And then when he heard of his brother's coming to At lanta. he prayed that he might be called here. He Is a splendid man, and I wish he could come.” That chance meeting of Mr. Brown and Mr. Guille In Indianapolis led to an exchange of letters w hich finally re suited In the ca'I of Mr. Guille to West minster. The two brothers are original ly from Athens, Tenn., anti the elder, who has lieen In Indianapolis, has been anxious to work In the South he loves. Ho feels that his call Is a direct an ■war to his prayer that he be sent South to relieve the scarcity of minis ters In the Presbyterian church. Pittsburg, Pa..
