THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL,
COST OF SOOL SAVING
IS BRODGHT 00 AGAIN
Methodists Collect $210,000,
Save 900-Baptists, $139,-
980.03; Save 1,007
The Methodists of Atlanta during
this year have collected 8210,000 and
have received 900 new members by
profession of faith. The Baptists
have raised 3139,980.03 ajid have re
ceived altogether 1,007 new members.
Both by certificate and profession of
faith the Methodist churches have re
ceived 3,100 new members and have
had a net increase of 1,000 in mem
bership.
There was a good deal of discussion
several years ago in newspapers in
New York and other cities concerning
the cost to the church of the work of
salvation. It was started in Atlanta
by a minister whose pastorate was
here giving fiis estimate .at a mnis
ters' meeting of how much it costs to
save a soul. Some mathematical per
sons became Interested in the matter
and figured out to a fraction of a cent
the cost of salvation.
In view of statements of money col
lected and new members received dur
ing this year that both Baptist and
Methodist churches have prepare* and
presented in reports to the recent con
ferences at Elberton and at Athens,
the question was yesterday suggested
to Dr. Joel T. Daves, presiding elder
for the Atlanta Methodist district.
He said that such a computation is
out of the question. He believes that
the church spends its money aS much
to maintain Christianity as to'convert
individuals and that its expenditures
are not to be considered as devoted
entirely to individual salvation.
The money collected by the Meth
odist and Baptist churches of Atlanta
and the number of* individuals con
verted give a result, when compared,
that is altogether different from the
conclusion that the mathematicians of
several years ago arrived at.
In their estimation, the usual soul
that is saved by the church and doesn't
for the most part save itself cost the
church only a few dollars.
In the Baptist churches there were
SOO actual conversions and 3210,000
collected. This would make each con
version cost over two hundred dollars.
Most of the money collected by the
churches is paid out in preachers’ sal
aries.
There are now 18,750 members of
the Methodist churches of Atlanta.
The value of the church property in
Atlanta is 31,250,000.
The Baptists have 2 300 churches in
Georgia and 45 in Atlanta. They have.
14,387 members in Atlanta and 265,000
in Georgia.
IHEWHOmi]
FOR MURDER OF WOMAN
Walter Arrendale, of 145
Randolph Street, Under Sus
picion in Douglas Case
’ls a 16-year-old boy guilty of one of
the most atrocious crimes committed in
Atlanta in several years?” That is the
question that is being whispered around
police headquarters since Walter Arren
dale, a pleasant-faced boy of 145 Ran
dolph street, w’as docketed as a suspi
cious person and landed in a “state
cell."
Young Arrendale was arrested on Fri
day morning by Officers Rosser and
Clarke, who with Officer Coker, have
been detailed on the Douglass murder
mystery for the past week. The officers
do not wish to make public, as yet, the
evidence upon which they are holding
the youth, but admit that he is a sus
pect in the murder case. They state,
however, that the evidence in the case
Is by no means conclusive, and while the
youth will not be released for several
days, in all probability he will never be
brought to trial, but for the present
the officers say that they have enough
against him to hold him.
Arrendale, who looks like a school boy,
is apparently not disturbed by his pre
dicament.
"You know they say I killed Mrs.
Douglass,” he remarked to a Journal re
porter, "but they haven't a thing against
me, and they wlil have to turn me
aloose whenever I can get them to try
the case. The only evidence is some
thing another fellow says he hesyd me
say, and he is a liar—they say Mrs.
Douglass had over 3FO stolen from her
by the murderer. Well I had 15 cents on
me when I was arrested, and that’s
about all I have anywhere.”
The crime for which the youth is held
was extremely brutal. Mrs. Sallle Doug
lass, of 401 Highland avenue, went out
into the back lot to milk her cow last
Saturday* about dusk. When she failed
to return her brother, A. A. Garner, went
in search for her and found her dead In
the cow lot. The woman, who was over
50 years of age, had killed by a
blunt, instrument, and a large sum of
money, which she was carrying, stolen
from her.
The officers working on the case have
made a number of arrests In the case,
but with the single exception of young
Arrendale, the suspects have been re
leased upon examination.
Arendale lives with his parents at 145
Randolph street, which is within a few
blocks of the scene of the murder.

. ALSO HIS AFFINITY
ANDERSON. Ind., Nov. 25.—Frank
Rickets shot and killed his wife and Mrs.
I Nellie Britton, with whom he had been
living in an apartment in the business
center of the city, late yesterday. Rick
ets, who was arrested, declared that he
had shot the two women after his wife
had shot at him.
Rickets was maddened by jealousy, the
police say. He and his wife had been
separated for several months.
A policeman, attracted by the sound of
shots, to the building, found Rickets
with a revolver in his hand and the
bodies of the women dying In an upper
hallway. Rickets attempted to shoot him
self, the policeman said, but he snatched
the revolver from him.
Rickets said his wife shot at him when
he appeared at her door and he then
opened fire. The police believe he way
laid the women in the hallway.

BIT TOOK SISTER'S CASH,
THEN TELLER "BURGLAR"
Rushed Into Roome With a
Bleeding Arm and Cried
Robbery
To cover his tracks after he had stolen
380 from a hard-working sister, Ed With
ers. a young married man, a machinist,
deliberately shot himself in the arm,
Inflicting a serious flesh wound, and then
announced to members of his family that
he had been shot by a negro burglar,
according to a report which reached po
lice headquarters on Saturday night.
Great excitement was created in the
neighborhood by the supposed burglar,
so it is stated, and officers from police
headquarters were called to the house
to investigate the case. The shrewd
ness of the officers proved the undoing
of young Withers, who on their vigorous
cross-examination is said to have admit
ted shooting himself and taking the
money. No case was made against the
young man at the request of members
of the family and the prosecution was
not pushed by the officers as they con
sidered that Withers had been sufficient
ly punished. z
RUSHED IN CRYING BURGLAR.
According to the information obtained,
Ed Withers, who was in one of the rear
rooms of the house of his father, John
Withers, 98 Emmett street, startled the
members of the family about 6 o’clock
Saturday morning, when he rushed into
the front of the house, his arm bleeding
profusely from the bullet wound, and
announced that the house had Just been
burglarized by a negro, who had shot
him after forcing him to disclose the
hiding place of his sister’s savings.
He described the negro thief graphical
ly, so it is said, declaring that the bold
robber was a tall, yellow negro, with a
bristly mustache and wearing a soft felt
hat. He told the direction in which the
burglar had gone, and he with mem
bers of the family rushed to the street
in an effort to locate the “fleeing thief.”
Neighbors came to the assistance of the
family, and it Is stated one or two ne
groes were held by citizens until the
young man reached them and failed to
identify them.
When the first excitement was over the
supposed burglar and attempted murder
had siibsided. Dr. G. Y. Pierce, aiderman
from the Third ward, and the Withers'
family physician, was called In, and he
dressed the young man's wound, pro
nouncing it not serious, but necessarily
painful.
It was not until 1:30 o'clock Saturday
afternoon that Officers Black and Davis
from police headquarters were detailed
on the case. They reached yie house and
immediately started an investigation.

NOVEMBER 29, 1910. x
KNOCKING competitors in my advertising has
always been against my policy— l aim to keep
within the bounds of sound business judgment.
But I believe it is the solemn duty of all honest men
who, by reason of experience, are possessed of cer
tain knowledge, to expose fraud in every quarter.
This must not be taken as a “knock” on honest, legitimate
competition (which I not only respect, but welcome with open
arms). It is a clear, forceful and honorable exposure of the
frauds now being perpetrated by dishonest and unreliable mail
order whiskey fakirs, whose bold advertisements, teeming with
untruthful and impossible claims, are being scattered broadcast.
Many of these claims are so ridiculously extravagant, and so plainly fraudu
lent, that the people responsible for them are not only taking long chances with
the Pure Food Inspectors, but run the risk of having their mail held up by the
Post Office Authorities.
Now, I don’t believe in general charges
without specific indictments, and I am going to
point out to you some of these fraudulent
claims.
Some of them advertise one dozen full
bottles of whiskey at a price less than half
what good whiskey is worth. You are clev
erly deceived into believing that they mean
full quarts. But when you send in your
money and get the goods you find they are
pint bottles, and not quart bottles.
Here’s another. Advertisements ap
pear with a picture of two full gallons of Pure
whiskey at a price which, if you would think
a minute, would convince you that you are
being offered a vile concoction of cologne
spirits and water —and not whiskey. And be
sides this, the bottles only hold one-half gal
lon, and not one full gallon, as they would
have you believe. ,
These fly-by-night fakirs are offering their
stuff at anywhere from $1.25 to $2.00 a gallon
—and I want to show you it is impossible to
sell pure whiskey at such prices.
A fair whiskey ia worth $0.75 a gallon.
Government tax it 1.10 "
Express charges are 60 “
The package costs .25 “
t Total cost $2.70 for one gallon.
The cost of handling—rent, lights, sues,
labels, etc. must be added. Just how
“pure” and “unadulterated” do you think
whiskey would be that you could buy for
$1.25 to $2.00 per gallon?
Some of the large dealers, by reason of
a big volume of business, can sell a pretty fair
grade of whiskey for s2.so—but $1.25 to $2.00
—never !
Now I am going to tell you how to catch
these fellows on the quality of their goods.
There is just ONE WA Yby which you can
KNOW for an ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY
whether or not you are getting an adulterated
whiskey—YOU MUST READ THE LABEL
ON THE BOTTLE.
The National Pure Food Law provides
that every bottle of whiskey sold in this
Order from Nearest Point R. M. Rose Company, Distillers Order from Nearest Point
RANDOLPH ROSE. Pniidnt
I particularly want to call your attention to the following brands : For a GOOD Whiskey at • moderate price, I
would recommend our “MOUNTAIN DEW’i/[CORN or “WINKLE’S” RYE at $2.50 per gallon. We prepay
express to any point reached by the Southern or Adams Express Companies.

Third —Blend (or Blended Whiskies.)

No dealer putting out a pure whiskey
ever uses the third, fourth or fifth description,
because he doesn’t have to. Only those sell
ing impure and adulterated whiskey put on
their labels “Blend,” “Compound” or “Imi

Dealers in pure whiskey put on their
labels “Straight Whiskey” or *‘A Blend of
Straight Wniskies.”
The Government has also fixed a stand
ard of strength, and all labels must tell the
“Proof Strength” either by direct statement
or omission. For intance, if a label reads 60,
65, 70 or 75 proof, it is “low Proof * and not
Government standard proof. If the “proof’
does not appear on the label it can be taken
as Government standard proof, the law pro
viding that where whiskey is of standard
proof the fact need not be stated on the label.
Even a “Straight Whiskey” or a “Blend
of Straight Whiskies” may be “low proof,”
in which case the label must so state.
Let me warn you against buying whiskey
in kegs. The law does not require labels on
kegs, and it is, therefore, for an tin
reliable dealer to sell you a first-class article
and ship you any old stuff.
