BIG SPLIT IN CHURCH
DOWN AT VAL DOSTA
Rev. Christie and Part of Mem
bers Withdraw
Americus Baptists are greatly in
terested in the news coming from Val
dosta concerning a recent split in the
ranks of the First Baptist church
there, and the withdrawal of the pas
tor, Rev. L. R. Christie, with a targe
percentage of the congregation with
the avowed purpose of establishing a
second church there.
Mr. Christie is well known and high
ly esteemed in Americus, where ho
spent several weeks recently assist
ing Rev. R. L. Bivins with a great
meeting at Fttrlow Lawn church.
Mr. Christie, with about fifty of his
members, have withdrawn from the
Valdosta church for the purpose of
starting a new church on Tabernacle
lines. The movement was a surprise
to many of the members of the church,
though others had been put on . no
tice and were expecting it. The move
ment lias been quietly worked up
during the past week or so.
The old crowd—those who remain
ed in the First church —met to per
fect their organization again and to
discuss the matter of calling a pas
tor. The church is one of the richest
in the state and it pays a salary of
$2,500 a year.
The new church is to begin work
at once and services will be held next
Sabbath, Rev. L. R. Chritie having
preached his last sermon as pastor
for the old church. It is understood
that he will be called to the new
church, or rather he will be the lead
ing spirit in organizing the taberna
cle.
It is said there has been friction in
the church for some time, due to dis
cipline. The pastor has made some
enemies and at the same time has
made some strong friends While the
separation has been in a friendly
spirit there are plenty of people who
have been looking for something of
the sort and many Baptists have
worked to keep it down.
Both factions agree that it. will re
sult in good to the church, as both
congregations will work more in
unison.
The Limit of Life.
The most eniment medical scien
tists are unanimous in the conclu
sion that the generally accepted lim
itation of the human life is many
years below that attainment possible
with the advanced knowledge of
which the race is now possessed. The
critical period, that determines its
duration, seems to bo * betwen 50
and 60; the proper care of the body
during this decade cannot be too
strongly urged; carelessness then be
ing fatal to longevity. Nature’s best
helper after 50 is Electric Bitters,
the scientific tonic medicine that revi
talizes every organ of the body. Guar

RIGHT IS WRONG IN
ASKING FOR MONEY
He Is Getting SIO,OOO a Year
In Fees Already.
ATLANTA, August 14.—The Senate
Committee on Appropriations today
made an unfavorable report on the
House bill providing for an increase
of S6OO in the salary of the clerk to
L the insurance commissioner, who is
Comptroller General Wright.
The cause of the unfavorable re
port was a statement by Senator Steed
to the effect that as the result of an
investigation he found that the comp
- troller general was (receiving annually
■ -alary and fees as insurance commis
sioner amounting to SIO,OOO. He said
i he agreed that clerks should have an
- increase but thought it should come
‘ out of the fees of the office, and not
i from the state treasury.

There was.
Millions prior to him had seen the

p.n unexplained mystery.
Recent s .itlfic research has put its
finger on the "cause” of Dandruff, Fall

has unearthed a tiny germ which eats

THE THOROUGHBRED
1 AND THE SCRUB
' God Has No Use for the
Man Without Zeal
1 TOO MANY SCRUBS IN CHURCH
Rev. Ndlhdn Thompson an Exceeding
ly Lntertdining Talker-Drives
Home Truth By Homely
But Forceful Stories.
There was not a large attendance at
the tent meeting yesterday afternoon,
- but every one present thoroughly en
joyed the talk of Rev. Nathan Thomp
son on the “Thoroughbred anjJ the
Scrub in Religion.”
i .Mr. Thompson took the well known
story of the band of Gideon, the three
hundred sifted out from the. army of
■ 30,000, whose hearts were hot with
' zeal in the work that was set before
them. Using them as a background.
Mr. Thompson impresed on his hear
t ers the need for zeal in the service
• of God.
Many were the speaker's illustra
tions, all homely, drawn from the oo
■ currences of every day life, lmt power
• ful in driving the lessons he was
• trying to impress on those present.
Just as we admire the throughbred
1 horse, the thoroughbred dog, or the
thoroughbred in anything in life, so
t God loves the thoroughbred in his
service, the man or the woman whose
whole heart is in the work, whose en
i tusiasm is awakened, whose energies
i are tireless, who is determined to do
’ something or die in the attempt
The characteristics of the thorough
. bred and the scrub in the animal
world were dwelt upon and applied to
the same classes in the religious life.
• The stories that were told of each
class were right to the point and
heartily enjoyed by all, even those
: who may have felt a personal appli
cation in them.
Mr. Thompson has an inexhaustible
fund of pertinent illustrations to pep
per his addresses with. No one can
hear him without enjoyment as we!!
as profit.
The meetings will he continued.

L HACKMAN IS GIVEN
FINE FOR CONDUCT
i
< Drunk In His Rig While Driv
ing a Passenger.
The story published in the Times-
Recorder yesterday of the drunken
huckman who, while driving a young
lady from the Central "Railway depot
the night before, invited another ne
i gro to a seat beside him, had Its cul
, mi nation in the police court yester
. day morning.
The lady, though greatly against
her wishes, appeared in court, and
told of her fright while in the hack
and her call for protection at the
hands of a gentleman near at hand.
Oscar Cottle was the liackman ar
raigned, while Fielder Reddick was
the other negro who climbed into the
rig with him lor a riun up town. Cot
tle was doubtless very drunk, and
for the double offense the mayor im
posed a fine of ten dollars upon
him.
Reddick, who protested that he
meant no offense when lie climbed in
to the hack with Cottle was likewise
touched for ten. The experience will
have a salutary effect upon both.
