PROGRESS OF THE WORK
OF METHODIST CONFERENCE .
Sandersville, Ga., Nov. 27.—The third
session of the conference convened in
the Methodist Church at 9 a. m. Re
ligious services were conducted by
Rev. R. L. Wiggins. Question 1 was
taken up: ‘‘Who are admitted on trial?”
Having stood the prescribed examina
tion, and after being represented by
their presiding elders, by vote of the
conference, N. S. Kemp, W. G. Ana
ben, William S. Johnson, N. M. Mc-
Donald, George G. Ingram, G. A. Da
vis, Charles E. Cook, a son of Rev. J.
O. A. Cook; J. A. Bross, C. M. Meaks,
M. D. Hursey, and W. M.
Jr., were admitted. The seventh
question was called: ‘‘Who are the
deacons of one year?" The names of
the young men in this class were call
ed, their reports submitted, their char
acters approved, and they were ad
vanced to the class of the fourth year.
Rev. R. E. Bailey submitted the re
port of the joint board of finance.
Eight thousand three hundred and
fifty dollars was paid out through this
board to the superannuated preachers
and their widows and orphans for this
year.
Before admitting into full connec
tion, W. S. Health, J. D. Mathews, L.
W. Walker, M. W. Carmichael, H. P.
Stubbs, C. W. Curry, J. U. Tippens, A.
G. Brewton, H. M. Woodward, T. F.
Drake, and I. R. Kelly, Bishop Key
delivered the address which is always
a feature of every annual conference
session, preceding the reception of the
class into the full membership of the
conference. Speaking to the class
the Bishop said in part: "Education
will help you. I favor the highest
educational qualification possible—but
this alone can't make you a preacher.
I have seen it tried and it was a fail
ure. If you rely upon this alone you
willffie left. You must be spiritually
qualified.
“I have had a panic upon me for
some time about our preachers taking
so many unconverted people into the
church. If this thing continues the
first thing you know you will be hav
ing your pulpits filled with unconvert
ed preachers, because we get our
preachers from the church. Be careful
lest we drift back into the same state
that John Wesley found the English
Church in. I am going to ask you
some questions laid down in our disci
pline. Mr. Wesley wrote the questions
1 am going to ask you.
"Are you in debt so as to embarrass
yon ?”
Each one of the class was asked this
question.
“Stay out of debt. I have known a
number of preachers ruined at this
point. One preacher who is lax at this
point puts all the rest of us under em
barrassment.”
The lecture was interspersed with
many striking words of instruction and
wisdom. The class was asked to lay
themselves on the altar: their time,
talents, business, loved ones and all.
“If you will do this we can use you.
We send you forth to hard work. But
you will not perish. You will be taken
care of.”
By a unanimous vote the class was
received into full connection. During
the singing of the hymn, "Am Ia Sol
dier of the Cross." the conference ex
tended to them the right hand of fel
lowship.

the Mississippi Conference, and Rev.
Mr. Coggins of the Holston Conference,
Rev. C. E. Dowman and Rev. Cham
blee, pastor of the Baptist Church here,
were introduced to the body.
Rev. W. N. Ainsworth, presented a
report of a committee, creating a board
of treasurers—all monies to be placed
in a large locked box early in the ses
sion of the conference. This money will
be distributed through the treasury
to the different boards. This report,
after an added amendment by Rev. A.
M. Williams. D. D., that the statisti
cal blanks also accompany the money,
was unanimously adopted. Thiiw new
rule will stop much of the noise and
confusion incident to the different
treasurers gathering up their several
claims on the conference floor. It will
also make the reports of the preach
ers correspond with the reports of the
treasurers.
Prof. Julius McGath, a member of
the North Georgia Conference, and a
convert from Judaism, was introduced
to the conference and addressed the
body relative to his work among the
Jews. Speaking of his work he said:
“In Atlanta there are about 5,000 Jews.
In a study of the criminal records of
Fulton county for twenty years back,
1 found that the name of only two
Jews are recorded. The persecutions of
the Jews in other countries are driving
them to this country. This is an open
door for us. To preach the gospel to
the Jews will help us. Until I was
almost grown I never entered a Gen
tile home, never ate a Gentile meal,
for fear that I might be polluted.” He
closed his address by an earnest appeal
to the conference for co-operation In
his work among the Jews.
It is quite likely that the appoint
ments will be read Monday night.

an almost certain winner. What few
bets have been made were placed at

Gain, svtlle, Ga., Nov. 27.—After de
liberating two hours and a half the
jury in the iase of the state against
Mis. Onie Tanner, charged with poison
ing her husband, Wylly F. Tanner,
on May 23, last, this afternoon at 4:10
o’clock rendered a verdict of not guilty,
and the pretty young widow walks
from the Hall County Court room a
free woman.
She maintained her calm demeanor
throughout the long and tedious trial,
and when the verdict was read she
showed no display of emotion what
ever. When her counsel and friends
gathered around her to congratulate her
she gave each and every one of them
the same indifferent handshake and
would only say "Thank you,” in a
hardly audible voice. She stood the
strain with a nerve, which few wom
en possess, and while her mother broke
down and cried for joy when the ver
dict was read, she never shed a tear.
The case has been one of the most
reiharkable ever tried in Hall county
and has excited more interest than any
similar case in this county.
Mrs. Tanner left to-night for the
home of her father, accompanied by
his family, where she will make her
future home.
The Tanner family is greatly disap
pointed over the outcome of the trial.

to cry, "Down with Francis Joseph;

and to sing the Gnribaldan hymn.

to-day in the various towns of Italy,
especially in Florence and Turin, where
the university has been closed. Dur

FEED HER RIGHT,
The Sure Way to Rear n Healthy Girl.
The relation of food to comfort and
health impressed an lowa teacher
who says:
“After teaching school for several
years I became a victim of insomina
and night after night it was 3or 4
o’clock in the morning before I would
fall asleep completely worn out. Of
course I lost'strength and brain power
and became terribly nervous until
I was on the verge of nervous pros
tration.
“About that time I read an article
about Grape-Nuts that convinced me
that, my trouble was due to indiges
tion. something I never thought of be
fore. I got two boxes of Grape-Nuts
and began to use them for break
fast and supper with good rich cream.
Well, the change was something
wonderful and my health came back
in bounds
“Grape-Nuts took the place of non
nourishing food and I am now better
in health, brain power, and spirits;
sleep well and work longer and hard
er and never feel nervous or worried.
When I have finished my school ses
sion I still feel I have lots of reserve
force and energy left and when T go
to bed at night I get sound and re
freshing sleep and get up early, happy
as a lark.
"I have h id numbers of my scholars
try the food and I must tell you about
one esse. She. was a puny nervous little
girl and her mother told me she did
not eat enough to keep a bird alive.
Ml she wanted xvas candy and other
trash. When I told her mother about
Grape-Nuts food she followed my ad
vice and Its effect upon this child,
shown in th" awakened energy of the
body and mind was simply wonderful.
Her school work became entirely
satisfactory and she gained in bodily
strength, iost all her nervousness,
nd soon became a rosy chubby young
mis."

HUNDREDS OF POLICEMEN
WERE AROUND ROOSEVELT
But a Crank Pushed Through and Gave the Presi
dent a Letter About a Cancer Cure He
Wanted Emperor William to Try.
velt came to New York to-day to at
tend the funeral of James King Grade,
whose late wife was a sister of the
President's mother.
During the five hours he was In the
city he was surrounded by several hun
dred policemen and a number of special
officers, but an apparently harmless
crank managed to elude their vigilance
and handed to the President a letter
regarding a panacea, which he claims
he has discovered. The letter was giv
en to one of the special officers, and
the man, who gave his name as A. B.
Deming. of 150 Broadway, was taken by
the police to court, where he talked
wildly.
The interruption came as the Presi
dent was leaving the church. Mrs.
Roosevelt was much agitated over the
occurrence, but the President w'as not
at all alarmed.
At 150 Broadway it was said that
Deming had desk room, and that he
had always appeared to be perfectly
rational on all subjects except his pan
acea.
When Deming held out the letter the
President took it and handed It to a
secret service man. Deming was then
pushed back and placed under arrest.
Ho said that he had a cure for can
cer. which he wished the Emperor Wil
liam to try. He wanted President
Roosevelt to write a letter to the Em
peror recommending the cure.
Deming was taken to the Tombs

Police Court. Before being arraigned
he said;
“X don't know why the President did
not keep my letter, instead of handing
it over to a policemah. It is a char
coal cancer cure that cannot fail. I
wanted Mr. Roosevelt to write to Em
peror William recommending the cure
to him."
It is said that Deming is the man
who on May 19, 1900, appeared at the
House of Representatives in Wash
ington and startled the House by sud
denly shouting from the gallery:
‘‘Halt! Order! by the grace of the
Lord, listen!” and then having se
cured the desired attention, proceeded
to make a speech to that branch of
t'he United States Congress. Three or
four policemen finally hustled him
away and escorted him outside the
building.
It is also said that last April he ap
peared at the White Star Line rner
as J. P. Morgan. Andrew Carnegie and
others were sailing on the Cedric, and
preached a sermon to them.
