Three brothers met in Brunswick
a day or two ago for the first time
in five years. From one of them the
other two gained information that
their parents had died eight years
ago. They had runaway from home
in boyhood. :
Ike Watkine, (colored), was kill
ed by lightoing at Milledgeville
last Phursday afterncon. He was
farming on Dr. Hall’s Beckham
Mount place, and when the rain
came up he sought shelter under a
tree. His death was instantaneous.
A few days ago, while Gus Mec-
Kenzie, living on the place of Miles
Bloodworth, in the southern part
of Baldwin county, Was going down
the steps of his house they gave
way, causing him to fall backward
and strike his head on the door sill,
after which he was unconscious.
Mr. McKenzie lived only twenty
four hours after th. accident.
Elberton has a club of young
gentlemen who have entered into
an agreement never to allow an
oath to pass their lips. If this club
had also entered into an agreement
that not a drop of liquor should ever
pass their lips and stick square to
the agreement they would not be
distanced in the life race. Cursing
is a habit, and those who curse do
not mean it or think of it. This
club could better by swearing their
members to keep away from whisky
and not get in the habit of cursing.
One of Ellaville’s gallant young
digeiples of Blackstone, finding
business in the legai profession
rather dull at t%’%éason, and hay
ing a wife and baby to previde for,
laid away his law books, closed his
office, doffed his standing collar,
congress gaiters and court clothes,
hauled on his seediest garments,
giezed a trowel, and sallied forth to
earn his bread by the sweat of his
brow until the law business picked
up. He had gotten a job of brick
laying,and earned over $lOO before
his friends missed him out ot town.
At Rome, Friday morning about
2 o’clozk, fire broke out in the rear
of C. 1. Barker’s stable, and before
the fire department could respond,
the entire building was enveloped
ina sheet of flames. There were
seventeen head of fine horses in the
stable, and two omly were saved.
The celebrated stallion of Capt. Sam
Morgan was one of the number lost.
He was valued at $3,000. Other
- woining buildings were also con
sumed. The total amount of logses
is estimated at trom $20,000 to $25,-
000,
The press in the fruit shipping
districts of this state have been giv
ing returns of the car of fruit which
netted the largest amount in their
particular territory, the highest
which was about $9OO. A number
of cars have been shipped from here
which have turned about that
amount hack to the shipper, but the
best return of the season is from a
car shipped by Judge J. D. Cuning
ham, from his orechard near here,
which netted $1,286. This beats
them all and puts Griffin way ahead.

Mrs. MaGruder, who lives at
Sulphur Springs, in Meriwether
county, has a four acre cotton patch
that 'has been most thoroughly
cultivated this year in a most pecul
iar manner. She has three geese
that have had the run of the patch
all the year, and they have kept it
free from the grass. In the spring
she owned a goat, which also had
the run of the patch, and he ate
the ecotton down to a “‘stand,”
about as well as a hoe hand could
have done it, and as soon as he
finished the job he laid down and
died. So the only expense the
the patch has been for cultivating
was the plowing.
A FORTUNE-TELLER
And His Wife in Jail for Abandoning
Their Child. : %
On Sunday last a white man aund his
wife, with an infant in her arms, were
brought from Acworth to this place and
placed in jail, under a warrant sworn out
before Justice R. M. Mitchell. The war
rant charges John W. Kendall and Mary
Kendall of having abandoned their off
spring and failing to provide for its sup
port. )
It seems that on the night of the Ist
inst., this couple placed- their two weeks’
old girl baby on the front steps of the
reafilenco’”ég ex-SenatorJ. J. Northcutt, of
Acworth. On the morming of the 2d, Mr.
Northeutt discovered the helpless babe
and enquiries were at once made as to
who the heartless parents were. It was
remembered by some of the citizens that
a man and his wife, with a baby, had been
seen tramping through the town, and it
was surmised that they were the persous
who had abandoned the child to the cold
charity of the world. Officers were im
mediately sent in pursuit and the father
and mother were overtaken in Paulding
county and charged with the offense They
acknowledged it and were brought back
and waived trial, and were remanded to
Jail.
We had a talk with Kendall and his
wife in jail. Both were crying and lament
ing in woeful language their hard fate. _
He said his home was in Perry county,
Indiana, 16 miles from Carrollton, the
county seat. He married his wife, Mary
Roberts, in Springfield, Mo., six years
ago. They came to Georgia last summer.
He is 40 years old and his wife 34.
We asked him why ke had abandoned
his child.
He responded, “Well, sir, 1 had been
hunting work, was unable to find any, was
out of money, nothing to eat, and my wife
was almost exhausted for lack of food to
nourish the child, and we did not know
what else to do to save the child, as the
heat and walking was so severe on my
wife, that we were unable to go on further
with it. I found out that Mr. Northcutt
was a good, Christian man, of means, and
I thought it was better to place the child
in a good, eomfortable home than have to
tramp om, and it would probably fare
worse. It was hard, pinching poverty that
caused it I want to support my child,
but I could not get any work to do. The
last work 1 had was on the farm of Mr.
Joe Fincher at Holly Springs, Cherokee
county, Ga.,” where our child was born
about two weeks ago.”
His wife spoke up, “Yes, sir, that is
true. My husband is a good man to me,
and he provided for me the best he could.”
“What have you been following in At
lant?” we inquired.
Kendall replied, “1 am a spiritualist
and fortune-teller. 1 delivered a lecture
on spiritualism at 9} Alabama street, but
the city license for fortune telling was so
high I was unable to pay it, and I had to
leave and hunt work.”
“Well, if you could tell fortunes, why is
it you didn't foresee the trouble you would
get in, if you abandoned your child?’ He
was confused and was ucable (o say.
“If you can tell fortunes, tell us how
you will get out of jail and escape punish
ment?’
He said his mind was too much troubled
to do so now.
We asked him if he didn't think that
there was a more sure way to make a
fortune than by going through the country
teying to dupe the ignorant by telling
fortunes?
Hesaid, “Oh, 1 can tell things, and
people are satisfied and generally pay me
for it.”
He went hack to his jail trouble and
said he thought it was hard to punish him
and his wife in their destitution, and if
they would let him out and give him work,
he would support his child.
The child, its mother said, was two
weeks old on Wednesday of this week. It
is a fat, plump, blue-eyed child, and look
ed as if it was a month old. To have to be
cradled in a jail is rather a bad beginning
for the little girl.
Unfortunates who are seeking their health
are many. They should remember that
the very best advertisement of a remedy is
the true testimony from peogle who have
used it. Writg to the Blood Balm Co., At
lanta, Ga., for their “Book ot Wonders.”
It is filled with convincing testimonials
from hundreds who have used B. B. B.
No other remedy has grown so rapidly in
public favor. In localities where its extra
ordinary merits have become known it
outsells all other remedies. It cleanses,
renews and purifies the blood. It creates
a healthy apgetite and a healthy digestion.
Duty demands that you give it a trial.

HOW DOCTORS CONQUER DEATH.
Doctor Walter K. Hammond says : “Af
ter a long experience I have come to the
conclusion that twothirds of all deaths
from coughs, pneumonia and consumption,
might be avoided if Aker's English Cough
Remedy were only carefully used in time.”

MARIETTA, GA., THURSDAY MORNING, AUG. 8, 1889,
REBAPTISM REJECTED.
THIRTIETH ANNUAL SESSION OF NOONDAY
" BAPTIST ASSOCIATION.
The Noonday Baptiet Association met
at Noonday Church on last Friday in this
county. It was expected that a show of
hands would be made as to who favored
‘the new doctrine of rebaptism and those
who opposed. A Baptist informs us that
Dr. Dean who has been Moderator for a
number of years but mow a believer in
rebaptism, declined to allow his name to
3'be used for refif’”ction. Hon. George
‘Roberts, an ex-member of the Legislature,
and 8 believer in the new doctrine, wag
nominated for Moderator by Rev. Mr.
Vaughan. Immediately, Rev. George S.
Tumlin. of Marietta, who is opposed to
the rebaptism theory, was placed in nomi
nation by Mr. J. R. Buchanan. The vote
was taken ard Rev. Mr. Tumlin was
elected Moderator by 60 votes tc nine.
This showed that delegates in favor of the
new doctrine were not very strong in num
bers. |
Jabez Gault, of Canton, was elected
clerk, and J.J. Northcutt, of Acworth,‘
treasurer. Dr. J. H. DeVofie, ot Grifiin,‘
preached the introductory sermon. Rev.'
G. A. Nunnally, president of Mercer
University, delivered an able address in‘
behalf of that institution.
The committee on the state of religion
submitted their report, on Saturday, which
in substance was as follows; “We deplore
the fact that some of our churches have
been rebaptising some of their memboars on
the ground that they now know their ac
ceptance with God without any doubt,
after they had once been baptised upon a
credible profession of faith. We regard
this practice as contrary to Baptist usage,
and unseriptural.”
Keport was discussed and opvosed by
Revs. A. B. Vaughan, E. R. Carswell, R.
Anlrews and Hon W H Perkerson. The
motion to recognize Rev. M. T. Martin was
voted down, but under a personal privi
lege to make an explanation he got in his
speech. TLose who suppo-ted the report
oy speeches were Mr. J. R. Buchanan,
Rev. Geo. 8. Tumlin, Jadged. R. Brown,
Rev. W. H. Cooper and Kev Thad Pick
ett. Vote resulted in the adoption of the
report by 40 to 12. ~ A number of delegates
had gone home at the late hour when the
vote was taken.
The preaching committee having ap
pointed Rev Thad Pickett to preach on
Saturday night, objection was made by
Deacon George Roberts, and Mr. Pickett
said his text would be, “I know Christ, I
know Paul, but who are you?' At this
juncture Rev E R Carswell rose and said,
“Let him fill the appointment. I will bea
watch dog and answer him after he has
concluded.”
And thus the audience met Saturday
night, with the “watch dog” in the pulpit,
and Pickett's blade sharpened for the
work. Such a scene is rarely witnessed
as followed. The speaker thought the
“watch dog” would have the hydrophobia
vefore he got through. Carswell wanted
to know if he preached that way all the
time. Pickett replied itis owing to the
occasion. The speaker applied the Camp
bellite snake story, where the candidate
for baptism was afraid to go into the water
because he suw a moccasin snake, and he
declared that the snake in rebaptism was
what was feared. The speaker dealt seri
ous blows for a while and characterized the
Woodstock church as the dumping ground
for the refuse of the Waco, Kingston and
other churches. Mr. Martin having been
deposed from the ministry at Waco, Tex
as, put his letter in the Woodstoek church,
and immediately licensed by that church
to preach, which he called lightuing ex
press work. 1n this connection h= showed
the partiality of the Woodstock church
Petween the deposed preacher from Waco
and the ex'minister from Kingston, allud
ing to Mr. McMurray which Martinism had
shelved. And then the unfortunate lady
who had been rcbaptised out ot the church
entirely was broughtin. The “watch dog”
was asked how he was going to get her
back—rehaptise her until you get her in?
No reply. Thus he hurried on for more
than two hours, when he turned the weary
audience over to Mr. Carswell.
He said that nothing had been said that
needed an answer, and he proceeded to
administer the benediction, when Mr.
Pickett stepped in and dismissed his own
congregation. Mr. Carswell was doubtless
astounded at Mr. Pickett's style, of invec
tive, ridicule, sarcasm, anecdote, and
readiness to reply, and doubtless will not
offer as a “‘watch dog” to reply to the in
vincible Pickett again.
On Sunday morning the moderator re
quested that the groups scattered about
the grounds should abandon all distracting
arguments and come into the church and
worship God in spirit and truth. This was
readily concurred in by all. Rev K R
Carswell preached in the morning and
Rev G S Tumlin in the afternoon.
On Monday when the Association met
the delegates of Noonday, Woodstock and
‘Cantcn churches claimed that great injus-
tice had been done them when the Asso
ciation said they had been baptising upon
& profession of knowledge—that it wa.s‘
only upon a protession of faith. |
As the Association, it was stated, did
wish to do those churches amy injustice,
while it was well known that Rev Martin
and his tollowers had been preaching the
doctrine of assurance in way not usual
among Baptiste, yet the majority to be on
the safe side voluntarily modified their
resolution so that it substantially read as
follows :
“We deplore the agitation that has
grown out of certain meetings recently
held in our midst, and condemn the prac.
tice of some churches in rebaptising a
portion of their members, they haviag once
been baptised upon a profession of faith,
said practice is contrary to Baptist usage
and unscriptural.”’
There was considerable stir over the
speech ofßev A B Vaughan. He said the
time had come for plain languageand he
proposed to give it, and he did. It was
plain language administered in strong
doses.
The delegates representing the Noonday,
Woodstock and Canton churches asked to
withdraw from the Association, which was
granted. The delegates will report their
action to their churches for confirmation,
and atthe next annual meeting of the
Association at Acworth, Ga., these three
churches will decide whether they will
withdraw permanently from the Associa
tion or not. ;
Jabez Gault, clerk, declined to take the
$lO voted him to have the minutes pricted
and said he preferred to do without
compensation but would go with his brother
delegates who had withdrawn. Wr Lem
Litchfield, of Acworth, was then elected
clerk, and voted the ten dollars to have the
minutes printed. By request of Mr Lem
Litchfield, Mr Gault read the minutes kepfl‘
by him up to that time. The association |
adjourned to meet at Acworth next year,
Rev G S Tumlin made a model presiding ;
officer, preserving his dignity with compos
ure, handling every motion with parlia
mentary skill and ability, although there
was much to confuse and irritate,
A (Baptist brother says, ‘“‘Martinism is
meeting with a cold reception and its days
will be short. Dr Tucker says ‘its success
means the destruction of our depomina
tion,’ and a very large portion of Georgia
Baptists agree with him, Those who have
fully identified themselves with Martin
will probably share the doom which seems
impending him.” ; .
Certainly the sensation of the day in
this section is Martinism, The whole
affair is very unfortunate for the harmony,
unity and prosperity of the Baptist denom-~
ination.

CROP PROSPECTS.
TuEe farmer ought to feel specially grate
ful to the Giver of all good for this year's
bountiful crop prospects. Thé corn crop
will be the largest harvested in Cobb
county since the war. The wheat and oat
crop has turned out well. The cotton
promises a bountiful yield. The fruit crop
of peaches, apples, pears, ect., was never
larger—the branches of the trees literally
breaking with their heavy load of fruit.
The melon crop is extra fine and bountiful.
The grape yield could not be any better.
And what better material blessings could
the farmer ask? They have bought
economically and labored hard, and the
Lord has blessed their labor. The farm
ought to be selfssustaining, and we are
glad to see this long stride towards it.
Let the Farmer's Alliance insist on big
food crops, buy as little as possible and
save all that they can, and they will come
oat on top.
