YESTERDAY WAG MOST IMPORTANT OF THE THREE DAYS OF |
STATE SUNDAY SCHOOL CON VENTION—MANY SPEAK ERS HAVE
BEEN BEFORE THE CONVENTION DURING THE SESSIONS, AND
GEORGIA SUNDAY SCHOOL WORKERS ARE GREATLY BENEFIT
ED—WILL ADJOURN AT 12 O'CLOCK TODAY.

The second d.y'* session of the
Georgia Sunday School association was
held In th# auditorium of Mulberry
Street Methodist Church, fully one
thousand delegates and friend# of the
association thronged the church. The
exercises of the day were all held In
the auditorium with the exception of
the business meeting which were con
ducted In the Sunday School room* of
the church.
Th# exercises held during the morn
ing were of a general rather than of a
specific nature. A number of Interesting
as well as highly Instructive talks
were delivered. One at the talks that
waa to have been made by Professor
H. M. Hamltl. of Nashville, Tenn,
had to be omitted from the morning*#
programme, as It was learned during
the morning that Mr. Hamlll would
be unable to make the trip to Macon
to take part In tha convention owing
to the Illness of Mr*. Hsmill. When
the news of the Illness was learned
by the large audience. It waa deeply
regretted, a* he Is one of the strong
est Sandy school workers In the South
nnd his work Is always of a very
strong nature. Prayer for the absent
worker's wife was offered by Rev. W.
C. Pierce, of Chicago.
Rev. Mr. Pierce was requested by
the association to take the place of Mr.
Hamlll during the morning's exer
cises by delivering talks along .the
same line* which Mr. Hsmill Intend
ed speaking.
Complying with the request Rev.
Mr. Pierce nddressed th* large congre
gation on the topic. “Country Organ-
Via. Central oIGoorgh Kailway.
Low rates, shortest route,
quickost timo I Four trains
daily. Clioico of two routos

or Birmingham. Via Atlan
ta L.nirn At norm 1 30 n In Isatlon." The talk waa a atrong one
ta, loavo Macon I.oU p. m., an(1 >|)ow#d that , h e speaker had a full
more serious aspect some one In the 1
entire audience sing "America." This
had the desired effect and the large
number of delegatee teemed fully pa
triotic at the moment aa well aa reli
gious.
At thla time there wm another in
teresting feature. The subject. "How a
Jew Found Jesus," waa discussed In a
most Interesting manner by Rev. I*. J.
Ehrlich, a Hebrew of Atlanta, He gave
thr convention a full account of a con-
veralon which be accounted a remark
able one, because of the fact that It
wa# the conversion of a Hebrew. The
atory waa that of his own conversion
to Christianity.
Evening Exercises.
At the evening exercises the speaker
of the previous evening was In the
pulpit, and for the second time deliv
ered a very atrong and scholarly ad
dress on "Denominational Co-opera-
tlon." Hla subject for Tuesday even
ing was 'The Book of Books." Both
of the addresses have been very pow
erful and have been very largely at
tended. The church waa crowded to
the utmost last nlgbt when the speak
er arose. He took up the entire even
ing. Dr. Munhall comes to the con
vention from Philadelphia. He has
been one of the strongest nnd moat
scholarly speakers in Macon during
the sessions.
Thla morning's exerolsea will close
the work of the convention. The work
will be at an end at 12 o'clock, and the
delegates will leave during the after
noon for their homes. It la stated
that the meeting of Sunday school
workers In Macon has been a very
profitable one. Many people have at
tended from all over the state, and
they have been .Interested to such an
extent that they will go away deter
mined to put Into effect the new Ideas
which have been gathered from the
great workers who have been before
the convention during the week.
It Is expected that there will be
some highly Intersting points to be
gathered from the report which will bo
made at this mornln’s session by Rev.
Charles Mnrtlndale of Newnnn on the
Jerusalem convention. Large num
ber* of the delegates are remnlnlng for
the work of the last day, and will be
present when this report is made.
The remaining programme for the
morning Is ns follows:

grasp of the subject In hand. Hla
many years' experience in Sunday
school llnas qualified him aa a com
petent speaker and his talk waa 11s
tened to throughout with unvaried at
tentlon.
In the course of hla apeech on "Coun
ty Organisation" Mr. Pierce made
many points, driving home the needs
of the countnf for more perfect con
ventions of Sunday school worker*
for ednventtona to be held In more ad
vantageous communities; that In the
case or a county convention each
school send Its quota of delegates; that
It ia highly essential that none but the
right kind of teachers be admitted into
the schools throughout the land; that
systematised maps of each Fund
school In all the districts be prepared
and kept; that statistics be compiled
prior to convention#; and that dlatrlct
as well as county conventions be held
from time to time. Each point made
by the speaker was clinched In a very
forceful manner.
Equnlly attractive ns wan his talk
"County Organization." Rev. Ilamlll
on the subject "The Sunday
School Teacher.** The points stressed
by the speaker In this talk were Jotted
Jown by many of the Sunday school
srs present and will probably be
nbered as all wore strong ones
sell worth consideration by the
teachers.
Mr. It. L. McKenney nnd Rev. J. ft,
ryon conducted the devotional serv
es lu tho morning section. For his
ilk Mr. Bryan selected his subject
rom Mark x:13-lfl. In the course of
nta the speaker pointed out the rein-
ions fxtntlng between the children nnd
he older members of the church. Ho
tret H<-l the point that It was In the
Juration of chuldren that the Sunday
ichool proved of no great worth.
A part of the ttma taken up In the
levottonal exercises was given over to
the singing of many old time hymns.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert L. McKenney
rendered "Saved by Grace" In a man
ner especially worthy of praise.
A collection waa taken up at the
conclusion of the devotional services.
The funds collected are to be used In
the furthering of the Sunday school In
terests In the state. Each county re
sponded liberally to the call for con
tributions. In all over 1*00 were either of, other buildings

Thor'.- .ire. strange as It rr.ay seem,
many really enlightened citizens of this
republic who have failed tc learn that
In the Palace of Fine Arts there la to
be Been the most comprehensive, the
«t b* jutiful, tho most valuable coi
tion of paintings and other works of
rt that hag ever been gathered togeth
er In America. There are people who
have not heard, or having heard have
not understood, that within the con
fines of the Louisiana Purchase Expo
sition they may seen the highest pro
duct of science, the most wonderful
electrical display, the finest landscape
decorations, the strangest people of th<
earth. There are those who do not
know that the Grand Trianon, the
Schloss Charlottenburg. the country
palace of Prince Pu Lun, the tomb of
Etmad-Dowlah, the Cabildo, the birth
place of Daniel Webster, the old Ver
mont Constitution House, the Slgour
Hey mansion of Hartford, historic Mon-
ticello, the beautiful Casa Rosa of Ar
gentine and the new temple of Ben
Chama at Bangkok, India, have aJ! been
brought together so that he who would
tak* the little Journey through the Pla
teau of the States and the foreign sec
tion, can see historic buildings, in exact
reproduction, that he could scarcely see
In the original In a year's constant tra
vel. There are yet other people who
have not learned that the very desk on
which the Louisiana treaty was signed
Is at the World'# Fair and that In the
German and French pavilions there are
six of the most valuable Gobelin tap-
stries In the world. These nnd many
other things there are that some people
do not know about the marvelous
World’s Fair; but everybody knows
about the Tgorrotes!
Before the public had been Invited
the four villages of Philippine natives,
some busy newspaper reporter dlscov- |
d and heralded to the world the fact
that the Igorrotes are In the habit of
riflclng dogs to the deity of the sun
and then making the roasted flesh of
the aarrlflce their piece de resistance at
breakfast. In a moment the society
with the long name waa up In arms. It
Is the purpose of the society to see
that no animal nhnll have a painless
death. "Better a city and a county of
starving, abused, outcast dogs than
that a few be murdered Instantly and
with malice prepense, and served first
the alter and then on the break
fast table of savages," #ay they.
With much difficulty the governor of
th? village, Dr. T. K. Hunt, also lieu
tenant governor of the tribe nt home,
quieted the ladles sind Insured the per
petuation of the most ‘picturesque nnd
humane of all savage fttfits. No soon-
thls matter settled than another,
a more serious one, arose. Borne other
ladle#, who had doubtless never studied
either art or ethics, complained to the
United State# government that their
sensibilities were shocked by the sight
of naked Igorrotes.' They were not
sufficiently shocked to abstain from en
tering the enclosure where the gentle
men dressed In gee-strings are kept

that he has taken the head of his en
emy; but no head waa ever taken by

and even contest.
Igorrotes are not beggars like
almost all the other primitive people
to be seen at the World’s Fair. This
doubtless beraurte they know that
Dr. Hunt will put them !n prison If
aught asking for money.

What his Influence during the past
eight years has been can readily be
Judged from the devotion of every man
and woman of the tribe. In the midst
of head-hunting savages, his will Is
supreme, his word Is law, and he rules
not by might, for Chief Antonio could
take his head If he cared to, but by a
direct appeal to the best that Is In
them. The Igorrotes have learned that
he Is their friend, as Just and honorable

in America would not be sufficient In

they wated to see Igorfotea. but they
wnnted to see them dressed up like
negro waiters. 80 vigorously was this
complaint pushed that an order came
from headquarters that the comforta
ble four-in-hand must be exchanged
for u pair of trousers. [ This was bad
for the Igorrotes; but U was good for
the World's Fair. People who had
never heard of a World’s Fair rend
about the new breaches that Uncle
8am was making for the naked sav
ages.
They were beauties, too, of the most
brilliant green nnd yellow and reJ
silk; but when the tempest In a tea
cup finally attracted the attention of
President RooMvelL he, being an emi
nently san# and rational man, declared
that if we were to have lgorrot
the World’s Fair, we should have
Igorrotes and not dressed up negry
waiters; not even ex-Igorrotes In ub
brcvlated silk trunks. So Dr. Hunt
put all tho little ra!O-bow breaches
away, and there was peace In the
lage once more. Again the pence was
of short duration. Tho omniscient
dignitary in Washington declared that
ley are not Igorrotes but Igorot, that
ioro may be one Igorot or ten Igorot,
id to quote from the Philippine hand
10k. "the man who would spell It
ny ether way than I-g-o-r-o-t. 01
ho would pruraltxe It Is guilty of a lit
ral barbarism." This Is the same nil
lee official who says, "Hitherto that
unimportant tributary of the Ohio haa
Black river. We now ordain
that henceforth It shall be the Blaycke
river."
The old spelling. Igorrotef with
glral plural, ha# been In use for ftur
hundred years. If you should summon
any nu mber of the tribe and ask him
hla nationality, he would #ay, "Igor-
r-»-rotay" with a roll to the third *vl
table that would delight a Frenchman.
There may be a good deal of "rot"
eme corners of the new Atuerte
poaeaalona. but there certainly Is tion«
In the nafne of these new Americans. I
It ts not probable that this nam* |
controversy will be settled aa easily
as were the other two. Yet during the
scrimmage the people will flock to the
World’s Fair to see these strange men
and women who have been able, in a
few months, to kdrertlse themselves'feo
widely. Incidentally they will see
some of th# thousands of other things
that go to make up this glorious *x-
position. And If they inquire, they
will also learn something about the
Igorrote# besides the bare fact# that
they aro not fond of conventional
drous, that they eat dogs, and that
they prefer the time-honored and ra
tional spelling of their name to th#
new and trumped-up one. The visitor
win see, first of all. that the Igorrote
la endowed with a skin so beautifu*
that It would baa crime to hl-le IL He
ts a living bronse. No ratlcn.il man.
no cultivated woman, would a»k to
have the Hermes in th<* Napte# gal
lery dressed up In trou.-ers and 4
clawhammer, nor even In silk trunks.
The Igorrote wears all the clothing
that decency requires, and If he were
the on# to a#k for more, the- World’s
Fair visitors would soon petition the
president to have those lithe, perfectly
developed bodies and that beautifu!
•kin again on display.
More than this, the visitor would
learn that the lgorrot# ts more honest
and honorable than the A merman.
Knwlng the value of money, he would
aot be tempted far one tingle instant
to take that which did not belong to
him, even if h# were a»r* th*t in*
