THE MACON TELEGRAPH:. SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 1, 1894.
HIS THEME WAS
“Turncoats;”
All Great Men in Religious Thought.
Had Been Turncoats, Dr.
Romig Said.
FINE SATURDAY NIGHT AUDIENCE
Deeply Interacting lenrleei Will Be
Held Today, to Which the Public
le Cordially Invited—Frof-
Dowdy'e Good hinging.
iA. large and Intelligent audience
heard Dr. Romig at the tabernacle last
night In one ot the most novel and
Interesting discourses be has yet
preachbd.
The Scripture lesson for the evening.
Acts xxvl: 1-23, was read by the pastor
of the Christian church, after which
Professor Dawdy sang In good form
an -excellent solo, and the best ,evl-.
denre.of the excellence of the profes-
Bor’s slnglr.o Is the frequent requests
for repetition of the solos.
Dr. RomJg, as already announced,
preached on "Turncoats," making the
Scripture reading the basis of his re
marks. He said the time had come for
him to preach on this theme. The les
son read told the history ot the most
radical turning ho had ever.heard ot.
Paul up to the time of his conversion
■was -the enemy of the church of Christ
became a believer In God and a con
scientious doer of his "will. But when
at the time ot his conversion he
learned that he was nd had been doing
the-whole will of God he Immediately
turned about and - became the bravest
champion of the young church. So
Saul the nemy became Paul the great
apostle. All great men In religious'
thought had been turncoats. To be a
turncoat denxuided courage, strength
of character. Any one could go with
the majority, but to stand with the
progressive, minority required more
bravery and Independence than most
men possessed.
Luther was a turncoat. - He was a*
Homan Catholic, but he turned, re-',
stored 'the Bible to tihe world and
struck OjidhoDolsm a blow from which
she never recovered. Calvin was a
turncoat, for he left one church to
found another. Wesley was a turn
coat, -for ^te left the Episcopalian
dhuroh and became the founder of
Methodism. Alexander Campbell was
a turncoat, for he was a Presbyterian
-end became the leader of the restora
tion of the nineteenth century. He who
changes his religious views dbes
fore, not In bad company. He who
changes his religious views views does
right. The man who follows his con
science and-the Bible oannot go wrong.
Services today as usual on Sundays.
Sunday school at 0:30. Preaching tit
31 o'clock, and tonight at S o'clock.
The theme tonight will bo "Our Guar
dian Angels.”

MRS. CHAPPELL DEAD.
Sho Will Be Buried This Afternoon
at 4'-TO O'clock.
Mrs. Lena Chappell, wife of Mr. C.
T. Chappell of tho Georgia Southern
and Florida railroad died at her home,
OUT Gcorgfti avenue, yesterday after
noon at 1 o'clock, after one week’s Ill
ness.
Mrs. Chappell's maiden name was
Shenvood, and she was Hie daughter
of Mr. W. E. Sherwood, who lives in
the Howard district, near old Lake
Academy cliurcflt, and It wns there she
lived until her marriage about seven
years ago. ,
Iu the community In which she wns
reared and with all who knew her Mrs.
Cliappell was a general favorite. She
wns beautiful In person, charming In
manners and possessed a generous
and sympathetic heart. She was a
woman who always had a smile ami
a cheerful greeting for those whom
site knew, ami her bright, sunny dis
position brought glad sunshine to the
hearts of all with Whom she enutn in
contact and made her home, that most
cherished of nil earthly places, a hap
py home.
Mrs. Chappell leaves two children,
one « tioy-of ,1 years ami the other a.
'boy of two weeks, both of whom will
never know a mother's care. It was
the aim of her life to rear tljpao child
ren to be g.KMl and useful tncai, but her
young life was cut short nnd they
must be reared without a-mother's
love. Mrs. Chappell w.ts just L'2 years
of nge yesterday, the day of her death,
and she was a perfect type ot bcautl-
i fill young womanhood. No one would
have ever suspeoted that tho death an
gel was hovering so near until n few
hours before her death her loved ones
saw that the end wns near.

THE HOUSTON PRIMARY.
JlaJ. Bacon Carries the County for
United States Senate. '
■A primary election was held In
Houston county on Friday, tho 29th,
for the eteoflon of t. state senator,
members of the house, county oTllcers
and stale house officers. The executive
committee and also provided that the
voters In the primacy should express
rttelr preference for United Stales sena
tor by a direct vole. The many friends
ot MaJ. Bacon throughout the county
for the past two months had every
reason to believe that the county
would vote overwhelmingly In his fa
vor, and acting upon this assumption
bad not made any organlxed prepara
tion for the primary. Some three days
prior lo the election, however, several
friends of Mr. Garrard cams over from
Columbus and, acting in concert with
several friends of his In the county, did
some very quiet and effective work In
Ms behalf without attracting any at
tention. Tilt* result of their efforts In
his behalf was not discovered until a
comparatively late hour during <he
primary, wlhen MaJ. Bacon's friends
Immediately rallied and carried the
county for their favorite. The entire
vote cast was between 1.104 and 1,244,
Mai. Baoon receiving 559 votes and
Mr. Garrard 532 voles. There are tlso
some scattering vo.tee throughout the
county for Messrs. Turner and Watsti.
and In a few Instances the voters failed
to express riirir preference on their
ballots.
'We congratulate and thank our
friends in 'Houston for tltelr Indorse
ment of our fellow cltlxen. We are ad
vised that If Maj. Bacon's friends had
had any notice That there would be a
contest his majority could easily havs
been made very much larger. „

into trouble. Now this is a serious vio
lation of section 3242 of \the Revised
Federal Statutes and the deputy st

kev. He arrested him nt his horm» in
Monroe county night before last <md

At the commissioner’s hearing It w,ne
made evident that the old darkey w;ns
not guilty of any crime. He said that
some time last year Bob Smith came 'to
him, he being a blacksmith, and g<n
him to rivet together two sheets of lroin
into a long cylinder. He did not knot v
fbr whnt purpose the> were to\bs used
and didn’t nsk Smith. The cylinder,
however, was Smith’s main piece of dls-y
tlllery apparatus, nnd with it hrt madei
many a gallon- of moonshine whlaky. 1

negro, and by It he wns made ono bf the
