THE BANNER, FRIDAV-MORNINC.
MARCH 31, 1911.
DR.JLYNCH
Pastor Called to This City
Had a Remarkable HoEil
on the Affections of
Durham.
The following from the Dally Her
•Id of Durham, N. C., Indicates some
what of the affectionate regard in
which the pastor cf the First Baptist
church of that city who, has been
called to the pastorate of the First
church here, Is held by the people
be Is soon to leave:
Congregation Protests.
The congregational rally at the
First Baptist church this evening
for the purpose of Imploring Rev. Dr.
J W. Lynch to decline the call to the
Athens, Ga., First Baptist church
promises to be the greatest tribute
ever paid a pastor here.
Since the announcement yesterday
morning that the Athens church had
extended this call and the serious
consideration of it by the pastor, the
entire church has been deeply stir
red. It moved the body as It has
never been moved before. A com
mon expression was that It Is a ca
lamity and one which strikes more
angles of the city's life than the
cllurch of his ministration now.
The meeting tonight is confined to
no special church or persons. Wo
men, men and children of all de
nominations are expected and though
the First Baptist church is itself
most concerned, there will be short
addresses by members of other con
gregations. The meeting Is called for
7:30 and will last but a short time.
The congregation Is banging upon
two hopes, the first that it may be
able to show the pastor no field of
labor baa a greater call upon his tal
ents than this one which ho has
worked so well; and second that not
haring committed himself, be Is free
to decline the offer. All of the ad
dresses made will be along the line
of a greater necessity at borne and all
of the perauaslvenes of men will be
given play.
The chances are known to be
against Durham. The call Is too flat
tering, too pleasing to his peculiar
gifts to be treated with any levity.
The congregation that would per
suade him to remain must do It by
showing him that this Is the best
place f$r him to work. He Is moved
by no other consideration.
His accomplishments In his short
ministry hare been the kind that
would make any minister pleased.
He baa added to the church more
than any pastorate of ever so many
years and there Is springing up
sentiment that dally grows, that
liner and a more commodious church
must eventually be built to hold the
congregations that weekly multiply.
No mglister of his denomination
has been able to levy upon other
churches, though scorning the prac
tices of a proselyter, as be has done.
North Carolina claims two of the
twelve great ministers of the coun
try now living outside the state. They
have gained reputation largely upon
something picturesque. The power
ful preaching of the simple gospel
has been responsible for the wide
suocess of the subject of this pro
test tonight. And that's why there
Is such a course taken.
The church authorities are extend
ing to every person interested in the
city an Invitation to attend the meet
ing this evening at 7:30 and to add
the weight of his presence to the
heartfelt prayer of the congregation.
The Pastor Stormed.
In the congregational meeting last
night at the First Baptist church,
called for the purpose of beseeching
the pastor, Rev. Dr. J. W. Lynch, to
decline the Athens call, the most slg-
nlflcant act was the presentation of
the resolutions, coupled with a rec
ommendation that a committee of
twenty-five bear the tiding to him.
It was in many respects a pathetic
gathering. Those delegated to talk
found It extremely difficult to speak,
tbo two cheering notes that came be
ing uttered by Messrs. T. M. Gorman
and P. W. Vaughan. The audience
audience was well prepared for any
breakdown and It came when Mr. L.
0. Cole read the heartfelt letter of
General Carr who wrote from a sick
bed. He declared that he could view
the move as no less than a calamity
and that sentiment was the dominant
one of the evening.
The meeting was called to order
by Moderator R. T. Howerton, who
made a brief address In which he set
- forth the object of the meeting. Mr.
R, H. Rlgsbee spoke first, outlining
the splendid work of the congregation
under the new spirit of the pastor.
He referred to the marked fortune
of the congregation in receiving the
acceptance to Its unanimous call two
years ago and declared that he could
not think now that the pastor would
gain the consent of hip mind to
leave. Mr. Howerton added to Mr.
Rigsbees words by saying that there
is no Inbarmony between pastor and
flock.
Mr. D. H. Wilcox spoke of the crit
ical questions that Dr. Lynch bad
settled for him when he reached the
stage of doubt and distrust Mr. a
L TTree struck a new thought He
declared that the pastor is now un*
forgoing the same agony of spirit
Preliminary Investigation
Trial to be Granted Hen*
ry Walker, Charged
With Murder.
This morning at 10 o'clock the pre-
limnary trial hag been set for Hen
ry Walker, colored, charged with the
murder of his cousin, Charles Wa.k-
er The negro, it will be remembered,
is said to have shot his cousin be
cause the latter refused to quit the
company of the former’s young sister.
Henry Walker was captured Satur
day night by Sheriff Jackson soon
after the negro he had shot died
from the effects of the wounds. Be

the grand Jury room of the court

that the congregation is. The con
gregation niuat pray for him. "Only
those who have been In his plaeo
can know what It means to make the
decision,” he said, and the speaker
told of the loss to those under his
Instruction. Mr. C. L. Haywood
thought that leaving now would be
blow from which there can be no
early recovery. He tolJ how Wake
Forest had overpowered the pastor
when he was first called to Athens
and persuaded him to return to the
college village. "Dumfounded” was
the way he expressed his feeling.
Mr. L. G. Cole told of the first
call to Dr. Lynch, how there was
unanimous choice and how after
searching the country the church had
come back here and called Its ablest
minister. He was barely able to read
the letter of General Carr.
Mr. C. P. Howerton suggested per
sonal work apd Prof. C. H. Jenkins
made an appeal In the name of the
young men, whom he pledged to an
active, militant aervlce. Mr. P. W.
Vaughan laughed at the sadness and
said: "I don't admit that be Is go
ing. You talk as If he had gone al
ready or will leave tomorrow. Wo
don't intend that he shall go. He Is
In as much trouble as you are and
more than I am. I pledge the sup-
port of the entire Baraca class to
him."
Mr. T. M. Gorman admitted that
real Baptism waa on the feminine
aide of the hose but he said: “It will
be a calamity to loee this man. We
mutt not lose him and I am like Mr.
Vaughan, I don't believe that we are
going to do It. The people love him
and he mutt know It."
One of the heartiest speeches was
from another outsider. Mr. A. J.
Faucette spoke most fesllngly. He
told of his love for the pastor and
said no man baa the confidence of
another more than Dr. Lynch baa of
lilt own and other congregations.
The people love him as much as they
ever did any man. The speech rang
true.
At the close ol the speech-making
Mr. P, W. Vaughan Introduced the
following resolutions which carry
with them the obligation of the com.
mlttee to visit the pastor In person
On the committee were appointed R.
T. Howerton, P. W. Vaughan. N. E.

Whereas, the First Baptist church,
of Durham, has learned that a call
has been extended by the First Bap
tist church at Athens, Qa„ to Dr. J.
W. Lynch, who has served this
church acceptably for the past two
years.
Be it resolved by the First B«o
list church, of Durham, N. C., In
church conference assembled.
That during the pastorate of
,ynch Ibis church has been great
ly blessed by our heavenly father.
The membership has increased, the
congregation has grown, the financial
condition haa Improved and our house
of worship enlarged and beautified.
2. That while much has been ac
complished we fee! that Dr. Lynch'*
work la only begun. Our city !■
growing rapidly, our field la constant
ly Increasing, our people and pastor
are in entire harmony and we be
lieve that our Father will bless the
seed which have been sown by our
falth/ul pastor and bring forth a
more abundant harvest.
3. That we take this occasslon to
express our appreciation of Dr. Lynch
and his pastorate to assure him of
our love and sympathy, urge him to

4. That a committee of twenty-five
be appointed, headed byjbe modera
tor of this conference, to convey
these resolutions to Dr. Lynch, said
committee to meet at the church to
morrow morning at 10 a. m. and pro
ceed to tbo parsonage.
Mr. W. J. Oliver, the well known
promoter and railroad builder la now
in Georgia inspecting his Une of the
S. A. & N. and looking over the pro
posed route to Athens. That the road
will be built to this city Is practically
certain ns the original incorporators
of the company expected to build
here.
Mr. Oliver was in Augusta a few
days since and while there talked
freely of his plans to extend his road
to .Athens. The Augusta Chronicle
has the following to say of his plans
The Future of the 8., A. A N.
As is known, the Savannah, Augusta
& Northern roud Is now in operation
from Statesboro to Stevens’ Crossing,
a distance of about 50 miles. It
graded about 40 miles further north
to Louisville, rrom which point It
proposed to extend it further,
though the definite plans of Mr. Oliver
and his associates have not been made
to the public, It is understood that
their purpose Is to build from Louis
vlile to a connection with the Geor
gia railroad at or near Camak, either
on the main line or on the the Camak-
Macon branch: or, If this plan should
not niaterailze, the road may be built
Jhrough from Louisville to Athens
to connect with the Seaboard Air
Line or the Southern railway. The
connection with the S. A. L., will, It
suid, be more than likely, as It would
give that road another outlet to the
southeast, enabling It to get into Sa
vannah by a direct air line from
Athens, which point is a strategic lo
cution on the S. A. I,. It would also
be possible for the S., A. & N. to be
utilized by the Southern railway as
direct line from Athens to Savannah
penetrating a territory which Is not
now reached by the Southern. It
hinted that both the L. & N. and the
Seaboard Air Line have been making
Inquiries as to the Savannah, Augus
ta A Northern, and they are thought
to be regarding it rather covetously,
with a view to making It an Important
link In their systems In south and
cost Georgia. Railroad men affirm
that the acqulaltlon of this property,
which Mr. Oliver has built, would be
a most valuable asset to either road
thnt may purchase It.
In the event that Mr, Oliver and his
associates decline to transfer the road
to some other line, na It has been sug
gested may be done. It is understood
they are prepared to make extensions
to the line ns It now stands, taking
It Into Savannah and also Into Au<
gusta or to some point on the Geor
gia road, or even into Athens, as has
been suggested above. If this Is
done, and the line Is still operated as
an .Independent property. It Is thought
eventually It will prove even moi
than a local road for this lection ol
Georgia. It wll go on Into the moun
tains of North Georgia, and may
reach Chattanooga. This was Inti
mated by Mr. Oliver when he was In
Augusta a few months ago with
party of Knoxville gentlemen, her
alding the recent Appalachian exposi
tion st Knoxville.

The Great Cough Cure
For Children and Adults.
Atlanta, March 28.—Senator Jos.
M. Terrell's friends are deeply gratl
lied at the result of recent reports of
hit condition, and they are begin
ning to believe now, whereas, they
had some doubts about It a short
time ago, that he will be able to see
the race through to a finish.
Senator Terrell has not only suffi
clontly recovered to be able to walk
about the house with the aid of
stick, but he is taking dally drives
new and getting the benefit of the
open air.
In all conversations with friends
he reaffirms it as his purpose to be
In Washington on April 10, leaving
here on the 9th. While he does not
expect to be able to attend the dally
session of the senate immediately on
his arrival, he feels that he will be
able (o visit the capitol dally and
to be in his office for a time each
day, sufficient at least to attend to
the business of his constituents.
There are still those, however, who
have some doubt about Senator Ter-
roll going through the race, though
It is charged that this talk comes
from his political enemies. It Is said,
loo, tha( the lack of activity in the
senatorial situation has been due
largely to Senator Terrell's condition
ns even his political enemlels did
not wish to appear to be taking ad
vantage of hta Illness.

One of the most impressive and
touching Incidents in the history of
the First Baptist church occurred
last night after the services were
concluded when Dr. M. ,A. Jenkens,
who has recently resigned the pas
torate here to go to the church at
Owensboro, Ky., was surprised In
the presentation of an elegant token
of esteem, lovo and devotion of his
board of deacons and the ladles of
the church he so faithfully served
as pastor for upwards of two years.
Just as the congregation was about
to dlapene for their homes, Mr. J.
A Darwin arose and aaked the au-
dlenco to remain for a moment ■■
presented Judge Andrew J. Cobb,
v. ho mounted the stand and in a voice
In which there was the tenderness
of real emotion vibrating through Its
tones, spoke touchingly of the re
lation of the people to their depart
ing pastor; be alluded to the fact
that when Dr. Jenkens assumed the
pastorate he had pledged himself to
the people to present to them the
olci gospel from the Old Book; he
testified for the church and all thoae
who had had the pleasure of lifting
under hia words that the preacher
bad faithfully, fearlessly, tenderly
kept that pledge and had at every
service In every sermon Indeed and
In truth told the old, old story of the
old, old gospel from the heart of the
old, old Book of books. For the board
of deacon^ Judge Cobb presented Dr.
Jtnkens with a handsome gold watch,
Incomplete as a gift till to It was
linked an elegant fob, the thought
ful token from the good ladles of the
congregation, that In his work In an
other field of labor Dr. Jenkens may
day by day remember the love and
affection of the people of Athens for
their pastor of 1909 to 1911 and their
appreciation of the purity of the gos
pel he preached—a purity typified by
Ihc ure gold.
The gift came as n complete sur
prise to Dr. Jenkens and when be
arose to acknowledge ft, his exp res
alonx were hindered by the stirring
of deep feeling which overpowered
him'and prevented speech for a mo
ment. He moat touchingly thanked
Judge Cobb for the kind utterances,
the deacons for the visible, tangi
ble token of their loyalty, and the
good women fot their expression of
kindly regard and to all who have
held him In affedtion and friendli
ness he expressed a reciprocal senti
ment. In a simple and Impressive
manner he hearttly said in conclu
sion; "May God bless and keep you
every one."
The watch la a beautiful affair, sol-
gold, chased case, Waltham sev
enteen-jewel ruby adjustable move
ment, perfect In efficiency as a time
keeper and appearance. The fob la
alio a beautiful piece of jewelry. The
cufflt waa purchased from Scudder’a.
they were forced at times to display
their best goods.
Warliop, Caldwell and Vaughn
worked In the box for the leaguers
and all three were there with both
feet In the pinches. It was Vaughn's
first trial this spring and he looked
Immense. He had his fast ball fairly
burning the atmosphere.
The Highlanders scored first, secur
ing two runs In the second Inning.
Fllliott was passed! He stole both
stcond.nnd third and tallied while
Hemphill was being thrown out.
Chase hit to left field for a home
run.
In the third the New Yorkers got
one run. Chase beat out a bunt to
ward third, stole second and went to
third on Knight's safe bunt. Hart-
zell brought his manager In with a
sacrifice fly to the center fielder. The
collegians made a run in the fourth
when McWhorter banged the ball to
left for four bases.
Three more for New York came In
the fifth. Hartzell was hit by a
pitched ball. He went to second
when Daniels got In a short single
over first. Hartzell and Daniels at
tempted to work a double pilfer, but
the former was thrown out at third.
Walsh singled, scoring Daniels, and
In turn tallied on Caldwell’s single
over second. Felker played the ball
bndly and Walsh got home. Elliott
brought Caldwell In with a sweet
double to left.
College Boy Gets Homer.
McWhorter opened the seventh for
the home lads with a single to right.
Drobks hit to the same spot and Mc
Whorter by fast running made third.
Blair caught McWhorter napping off
third, but while running him down
Hartzell pegged wild and both Mac
and Brooks tallied.
Chase's men cinched the battle In
the eighth by making three more
runs. Hemphill was hit by a pitched
ball. Chase hit safely to left and
the outfielder, In trying to catch
Hemphill at third, threw wildly.
Hemp tallying and Chase getting to
third. Knight beat out a bunt. Hart-
sell's sacrifice fly brought Chase
home. Knight was thrown out at the
plate on Daniel's hit to McWhorter,

Athena, Ga., March 23. It was
aklddoo" day for fair so far as
tory, but the play of the Highlanders
waa not.
For six Innings the raw collegians
put up a brand of ball quite equal
to that of the visitors. It was quite
ns effective if not finished. In that
time the lads of learning showed In
Brannen and Cox a line of pltchlng
tiiat made the hilltop crew appear
very weak at bat. Only three sparse
ly scattered hits were secured off
Brannen and Cox in that time, and
but for a rank error the Yanks would
not have tallied. The wise guys, it is
true, had no chance of victory at any
time. Abies, Sykes and Revelle, who
worked three innings apiece, prov
ed far too cunning for them. But it
was believed that Chase and his gang
would make a better showing on
offense.
Hurry Call for Recruits.
The boy manager finally had to
call upon some of the sod busters
to win the fickle smile of fortune.
None other than Benny Kauff, the
runaway Colt, sewed up the pastime
tight as the bark on a birch tree.
Benny didn’t look like a simple
"cough” on his lone appearance at
bat. With one on the sacks aod one
out in the lucky seventh round he
leaned up against one of Cox's finest
curves for as pretty a home run as
has been seen this year. Benny
pranced around the bases and when
he spiked the home plate the score
w as 4 to 0 In his team's favor. Denny
seems there as a pinch hitter, in
Georgia at least.
Kauff's swat to the trenches In
deep right field took 'nil the gimp
out of the locals. It detracted some
what from the halo of little Catcher
Russell, the first Yannlgan pressed
Into service. On his first appearance
nt bat the Virginian bounced home
the first earned tally of the Gotham
ites. With one out, Hartzell was safe
on the shortsop's error. He stole
second and scored on Rusell's clean
single to right centre. Here Kauff
batted for Sykes, with the result
chronicled above. After the loop the
loop, the defense of Georgia caved.
Errors put both Elliott and Hemp
hill out, and they worked a pretty
play. Hal Chose “squeezed" bath
across the dish when his bunt rolled
through the drawn-ln Infield.
Russell scored the final tun In
the ninth. He was hit, advanced
on an Infield out and scored on El
liott's two-bagger. The run in the
fourth wns a gift. Chase walked and
stole, with one out. He got all the
way round when a throw from the
pitcher to catch him napping got
through both the second baseman
nnd central field.
Georgia Gets Man on 8econd.
The collegians never did have a
chance. But one of them got as far
nn second base. That waa Brannen,
who scratched a hit, with one om. In
the third. He stole second simply
because Blair pegged wide. Brannen

NEW CONGRESSMEN
IN WASHINGTON
Washington, D. C„ March 28.—
Though the Sixty-second congress
docs not convene until a week today
a large number of the members of
both branches have already arrived
In the capital. The extra session will
be the beginning of an altogether
new congress, of whose members 14l
will take their places for the first
time and many of whom have never
visited Washington before for any
length of time. Consequently they
put in an appearance early, for It la
necessary to engage accommodations
and attend to innumerable other de
tails that come easy to the veteran
members but frequently are a cause
cf much annoyanre and no little em
barrassment to the newcomer. The
htajority of the new members, except
ing some who possess ample means
and a disposition to spend, put up
at one of the bfg hotels for a few
day* after their arrival and then look
about for suitable accommodations
In the 'hash belt,” a term familiarly
eplied to a large section within easy
access of the capitol containing row
after row of boarding and Rooming
houses.
