SOME FINE SERMONS
Scholarly Presbyterian Divines Delight
Large congregations.
IDEAL NOVEMBER. WEATHER SUNDAY
Each Church Thought It Had the Best
■Preacher -All the Ministers Departed
Yesterday Morning.
Sunday was an ideal November- day.
The air was redolent with the fragrance
of the fall time, and as balmy as u May
day. All nature invited mankind out of
doors.
With the knowledge that the pulpits
were to be filled with the scholarly and
eloquent Presbyterian divines it is
scarcely to be wondered at that Romans
filled the churches to overflowing, All
were pleased with the sermons they
heard and it is utterly impossiole to say
where the best sermon was preached.
By a rather remarkable co incidence
the preachers at the three First churches
chose their texts from the eighth chap
ter of Romans.
The pulpit of the First Presbyterian
church was occupied by Rev. J. H. Pat
ton ,of Marietta, who was the modera
tor of the Synod. The church was well
filled and he delivered a splendid dis
course which was higtaiy complimented
by all who beard it. His text was from
Romans vin, 38. Dr. Patton is a very
learned young man and a brilliant fu
ture is predicted for him.
In the afternoon the church was filled
to overflowing at the Sunday school
mass meeting. Owing to the large at
tendance it was held in the main audi
torium instead of the Eosalie Clark
Memorial ehapel. Addresses were made
by Dr. Marion Hull, Dr. R. R White
and others. It was a very interest
ing meeting.
At night Dr. E. H. Barnett, of At
lanta, preached a very able sermon.
At the First Methodist church Dr.
J. W. Walden, of Athens, preached a
sermon which highly pleased the large
congregation. The church was crowded
with many ladies and prominent citi
zens. Dr. Walden who went from New
Orleans to Athens preached a very mas
terly sermon from Romans viu. 18-28.
His general topic was regeneration. He
brought out indisputable proof of im
mortality.
The pulpit at the night service was oc
cupied by Dr. F. H. Gaines, of Decatur,
president of the Agnes Scott Institute.
At the First Baptist church it was
claimed by the large congregations
present that they heard the two best
sermons of the day. Dr. Plunket. of
Augusta, preached at the morning ser
vice from Romans vni, 28. Rev. Theron
Riee, the brilliant young Atlanta divine,
preached at night. The Baptists say
that they were two of the best sermons
they ever heard.
At the other churches excellent ser
mons were heard as follows:
Rev. Chalmer’s Frazer preached at
the Second Presbyterian church.

extended to them.
ROME CLUB’S GOOD WORK.
A Tribute From the Dalton Argus to Our
Woman’s Club.
Miss Sylla Thomas writing in the
Dalton Argus says:
Like a chorus of happy voices comes
back the echo of the many meetings in
that sunny court room in Rome. The
voices of women who have wielded the
Good

health. Every nook I AAfl
and corner of the BiV I
system is reached by the blood, and on
its quality the condition of every organ de
pends. Good blood means strong nerves,
good digestion, robust health. Impure
blood means scrofula, dyspepsia, rheuma
tism, catarrh or other diseases. The surest
way to have good blood is to take Hood’s
Sarsaparilla. This medicine purifies, vi
talizes, and enriches the blood, and sends
the elements of health and strength to
every nerve, organ and tissue. It creates
a good appetite, gives refreshing sleep
and cures that tired feeling. Remember,

Influence of their lives in behalf of
woman and her native stats, in the cause
of education and humanity. And possi
bly it may be apropos to say, just here,
that the idea that has gone abroad in
the land, to the effect that club women
are tending towards suffrage is a mis
take—a grievous mistake. Os the many
representative women of Georgia, who
were heard in the balls of justice, not
one tended toward '‘new womanism’’—
each and every ous was a type of the
Southern womanly woman. The women
of Georgia merely realise their equality
in the mental scale with their brothers,
and ask for recognition, not at the polls,
but in scholastic halls.
Then the vast work of humanity the
women of the state are carrying on—
hew it thrills one, like soft chords in a
minor key. For evidence of this work,
is the Emergency Hospital and Free
Kindergarten carried on under the man
agement of the Woman’s Club of Rome.
I cannot help but recall the visit we
paid these charities. “Into the wards of
the whitewashed halls” we went, where
cleanliness and order reigned supreme.
One room of the hospital is kept up by
the family of a Mr, Johnson, another is
aided by the Baptist church, one helped
by Rome's brave firemen, brave in
charity as well as spirit, and a fourth
room is supported in part by the Pres
byterian chnroh. “What a noble work
you are doing,’’ I said to a pretty little
dark-eyed woman. and she replied: “Oh.
it is my life!” and irom the bright smile
given herby a small frail little patient
in one of the wards, I knew her words
to be true.
The Free Kindergarten carried on in
the Pansy Chapel, each Saturday after
noon, is another “free-will offering”
from the woman’s club. There the tiny
mites, released at four o’clock from their
factory work, are taught. There they
first learn the tiny, infant steps in the
great walk of life and knowledge, and
many, too. first hear of a Saviour at
“teacber’sknee,” While this great work
is being carried on. no one could say:
“Oh, the rarity of sweet Christian
charity—God’s holy power of love!”
If Rome is an index of the good deeds
being done by the federated clubs of
Georgia, I can only say: “May the Geor
gia club women live long and well!”

SLAP AT OFFICE SEEKERS.
A Hungry Horde Who Feed on Official
.Pap.
Atlanta, Nov. 15. —Quite a promin
ent editor of the state was standing in
the Kimball House lobby last night
watching the throng of men and the ac- ;
tivity of candidates for office. He grew
reflective, and finally remarked that he
wished it was so ordered that we ’“could '
get back to the Arcadian days of forty
years ago when office sought the man and
the man did not seek the office.
“It’s lamentable,” he observed, “to
witness all the scrambles, this slate mak
ing and wire pulling and to see, and
know and feel that the men engaged in
it are seeking the high'.st offices in the
gift of the people of Georgia. ■ Just
think of how our judges and prosecuting
officers of this day are elected and of the
combines, trades, promises and the like
they make, and are obligated to make, to
be elected to their places. I remember
some years ago—not quite forty years
ago—some fifteen years ago an election
for a judge of the supreme courts of the
Gcmulgee circuit was pending before the
Georgia legislature and all of tbe candi
dates for the place were on the ground,
in Atlanta, save one.
That one was judge Augustus H.
Reese of Madison. He was urged to
come, but be declined and finally
wrote a letter, which found its way
into print, giving his reasons for not
appearing at the eapitol. Ido not re
call the exact phraseology of his let
ter, but he stated that the office of a
judge of the supreme eourt was one of
dignity and importance, that be held
it to be in sued high repute that he
could not consent to go to Atlanta and
engage in an unseemly struggle for it.
It was, in his judgement, an office
that no man could fill acceptably and
conscientiously unless it was given to
him by the people unsolicited and
without bargain.
'‘Judge Reese is now dead, but I do
not believe, ” continued this editor,
“that his noble sentiments are dead.
They are sleeping,today, I admit, and
are lost sight of,but the time will come
and come soon, when the people—the
good honest people of the state are
going to arouse themselves and shake
loose from the monstrous political
ringsand cabals which for some years
have controlled the politics of the
commonwealth and which have par
celled oat its office.. lam not an ex
treme Arcadian, I do not believe that
politics ean be made entirely clean,
but I do believe that they cannot exist
in Georgia much longer in their pre
sent polluted state. ”

IN EDISON’S LABORATORY.
Hie Wonderful Collections of Photographs
and Substances.
[Special Correspondence.]
Orange, N. J., Nov. 16. —Several
years ago Thomas A. i Edison gave it out
that he had “gone out’’ of electricity
and the taking out of patents. Mechan
ics and metallurgy, he said, would
thereafter receive his closest attention,
though he should use electricity as a
means whenever it seemed the best
thing to do and should take out patents
whenever that was necessary in order
to give himself the legal right to use
any one of his own inventions.
And so it is that the visitor to his
laboratory here, which must have orig
inally cost $500,0(10 and is unquestion
ably the finest in the world, sees as
many or more thines not electrical to
interest him as those which have to do
with the mystic current and its various
applications. Tho photograph gallery,

the Edison collection of photographs is
certainly unique. They include, besides
the photographs that have been accumu
lated in connection with the kineto
scope, a great number of photographs (
of microscopic objects, and it was by .
means of the silent testimony of one of i
these photographs that the wizard won
a suit brought for the protection of his
most important invention.
Even more interesting than the micro
scopic photographs, which include some
truly wonderful ones of the eyes of in
sects, is the collection of substances al
ready referred to. This is a really
unique aggregation, and Mr. Edison de
clares that it includes every known sub
stance on earth —skins and bones and
hair of animals, common and rare,
scales of fishes, feathers of birds, shin
ing crystals, gleaming metals, earths
from all quarters of the globe, stones of
every sort, salts, rosins, gums, chalks
and chemicals. Besides, there is a won
derful gathering of manufactured prod
ucts—textile fabrics, metallic sheets
and all sorts of fiber twisted into cords
from the size of the finest silks to great
cables. Every sort of paper ever made
is included, too, as well as a perfect
collection of rubber fabrics, and there
are also specimens of all the seeds of
the earth. In fact, the collection is
practically what Mr. Edison claims for
it, and the articles of which it is made
up could not be listed even in much
less space than that afforded by one en
tire issue of a newspaper.
To some the collection of mechanical
and trade devices would be most inter
esting of all. It is not universal, of
course, but-it is undoubtedly the most
comprehensive of its sort in the world.
Pickaxes of many designs, saws, coffee
mills, meat choppers, wheelbarrows,
ladders, strange contrivances from
strange lands, the very use of which is
not apparent without careful inspection,
are heaped together quite unclassified,
and perhaps unclassifiable. A half day’s
examination would not only bewilder
the visitor, but add to his admiration
for the versatile powers of the man who
could get such a collection together and
make good use thereof.
