THE MINISTERS NOW KNOCKING
Atlanta Dlvino Engages in Spirited
Debate.
Atlanta,May 15 —Following bis Sun
day morning sermon, in which be de
clined to advise h s parishioners to
send their children to attedd the Ter
rey-Alexander revival now attracting
thousands nightly to the Peaobtree au
ditorinm, Rev. C. B. Wtlmer, rector of
St. Lake’s Episcopal church, has g ven
out a strong denunciatory interview a*-
tacking the evargelietio methods u°ed
by these divines.
‘ Suoh preaching as Dr. Torrey is
doing is a combination of fire insur
ance,quack doctor and a get-rioh quick
scheme,” said be.
“As to Dr, Torrey’s particular work,’'
continued Dr. Wilmer, “I can not
speak definitely, because I have not
studied his work. From hi§ reported
sermonp, however, I learn that he re
pudiates all of tlio natural goodness of
ma*", allegmg that the most upright
man is on the same footing, so far as
chances <f salvation go, as the most
depraved human being.
“When he speaks of coming under
the blood I confess that from his in
terpretation I cannot understand what
he means. He is trying in an ignorant
way to get at something that be can
not or at least has not expressed.
“Between religious goodness and
the goodness of the natural man. Dr.
Torrey sees no relationship whatever
in his rcbeme Human goodness plays
no part and seivea no purpose, To
say that a thoroughly moral man is on
footing with a reprobate and to add
no qualifying statement is simply au
outrageous utterance ”

AGCOUNTOF RAIN.
Basement Boys Played Fair
Ball
HELD WAYCROSS DOWN TIGHT
Hudson Pitched Good Ball But Rain
Stopped Game in Third Inning.
Final Game With Waycross Played
Today.
Japiter Flavin* made a fine h me
ran on the NVayoross ball field yeilor
dty ard both elabe ran home with
him. Rain broke np the game in the
third inning to the delight of Ameri
cas sane, who thought Americas ihas
escaped a troaocing.
Rain dcnbtless saved them the day,
these basement boys, with a lead pipe
cinch on the bottom.
1 1 mast be said to their credit, and
it is so said with civic pride and pleas
ure, that np to the time the game was
otll d the Americus team was play
ing very good bail.
Hudson, oar new pitcher, was in the
box, and to that point Waycross had
not made a hit off him. Neither side
bad scored a ran, and when the game
ended honois were easy. We hadn’t
won anything, bnt neither had the
other tiara.
Hudson’s pitching evidently kept
Americui off the toboggan.
He is regarded as a good mao, and if
he continues with the club may redeem
in a manner its reoent reyerses. Bat
even a pitcher can do nothing without
field support.
And it is principally in that respect
Americus has been woefully deficient
sinoe the season opened. While the
general playirg of her club has been
rooky, the poor field work has been
moat noticeable. Home of the support
there cannot plas ball.
And the failure to correct these glar
ing deficiencies is causing local enthus
itsmtoooze fast. The most enthnsi
astic are tired.
No city in the league has given its
team better patronage or more loyal
support, hundreds attending all the
games here. But defeat follows defeat
every day because some of the men
oiunot play ball. This is the opinion
of many here.
Local ball men, who unders and
thoroughly the weak points in our
team, have pointed them out to the
management and urged that competent
players be put in these placeo.
And unless this is going to be done
the thing had beet stop. Americus
wants no farce in ball playing, and the
support she is giving the clnb bearing
her name warrants better resalts than
the long string of defeats charged np
to her, *

reader of this will continue to suffer
the tortuers of an aching back, the

dangers of diabetes or any kidney ills
when relief is so near at hand and the
most positive proof given that they can
bo cured, Read what an Americus citizen
says :
T. B. Holton, a well known painter
and paper hanger of GOG Jacksoa Ht.,
says: “I think well of Doan’s Kidney
Pills for I tried them for a severe back
ache of long standing and they did a lot
of good. I had never been laid np with
my back, but there was always that dull
heavy ache and a continual weakness,
When I sat or stood in one position for
any length of time it was a study how
to move without causing myself torture
and I would get up off a chair like a man
80 years old. There was no strength in
my back, the urine was dark and had a
sediment in it, and I was bothered a
great deal a!; night, my rest being brok
en by the pain, and by the too frequent
desire to urinate, I tried many different
remedies, tut nothing did me eny good
I saw Doan’s Kidney Pills advertised at
length, and got a box at Dodson’s Drug
Store resolved to give them a fait trial.
They drove the pain out of my back.
I no longer b?«l that weakness, and
the secretions are normal and healthy
again. I can sleep all night without
haying to get up.”
