THE CONGREGATIONAL
CHURCHES SUNDAY.
At. St. Johns church, on Georgia ave
nue, during the Sunday school hour
In the morning, also at 3 o’clock Sun
day afternoon. Miss Margaret Wlntrln-
ger, the secretary of the Loyal Tem
perance Legion, which is a branch of
the National Woman's Christian Tem
perance Union, will speak in the in
terest of that department, illustrating
with charcoal sketches to render her
subject more effective.
Sunday night she will speak 'for the
Loyal Temperance Legion, mothered by
the Atlanta Willard Woman’s phristlan
Temperance Union, which has been
meeting for several years in the Con
gregational church on McDaniel street.
Monday she will talk to the children
of the orphans' homes at Decatur and
at Hapevllle, and make an effort to
organize Loyal Temperance Legions
where there are none. Like the rest of
the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union folks. Miss Wlntrlnger believes
tho most hopeful work is with the
children. When she was converted she
gave up a lucrative position as a teach
er of art, and now portrays with pen,
tongue and pencil the evils wrought
by alcohol, which, according to Mr.
Gladstone, "has destroyed more than
war, pestilence and famine."
Miss Wlntrlnger has won high praise
from Mrs. Stevens, the president, and
Miss Gordon, the vice president of the
National Woman’s Christian Temper
ance Union, as well as many other per
sons of prominence in that great or
ganization.

On Novembor 10 Blehop Beth Ward
will open the North Georgia Confer
ence at Cartersville In the Sam Jones
Memorial church, at which time there
will be more Methodist preachers In
Cartersville and Its environs than has
aver been seen there at--any one time.
Preliminary to tho opening day, the
preceding day will be a busy one.
Sometimes the presiding bishop calls
together his cabinet, which Is com
posed of eleven presiding elders, on
Tuesday for a session. The commit
tees of examination meet the candi
dates on Tuesday and a large amount
of Important work done. The young
men who are to be Admitted on trial
will be examined by Revs. F. Walton,
W. P. King and R. C. Cleckler. Those
who have been preaching one year will
appear before Revs. C. C. Jarrell, O. L.
Kelley and W. B. Dillard. The second
year men will have to be approved by
Revs. C. O. Jones, C, P. Marchman and
F. Qullllan. The third year's class will
come before Revs. W. S. Robison, C.
M. Verdel and A. W. Williams. The
fourth year’s men will be examined by
Revs. John Spier, W. H. Cooper and
A.'. M. Pierce. There will be from forty
to fifty young preachers to be exam
ined.
Yearly Business Meeting.
On Tuesday night one of the Im
portant associations of the preachers
will convene In the church. It la the
yearly business meeting of the Widows'
and Organs' Aid Association. Rev.
M. J. C«er, of Atlanta, Is the active
and energetic president, and Rev. S. B.
Ledbetter, of Rome district. Is secre
tary and treasurer. When a preacher
of the conference dies whtj Is a mem
ber of this association each member
sends to the secretary 32 and that of
ficer forwards to the family the amount
of assessments collected, together with
1100 from the vested fund. Out of the
five preachers who have died this year
two of them were members and their
families received about 1300 each.
During the session the Sunday school
board will hold at night Its anniver
sary meeting. Colonel George M. Na
pier Is president and Rev. H. B. Mays
Is secretary. There were over 55,000
enrolled pupils lost year, who contrib
uted 13,818 for missions, 11,164 for chil
dren’s day fund and 335,244 for other
objects.
105,000 Members.
Though nothing Is being said at pres
ent concerning a division of the North
Georgia Conference yet this Important
matter will have to come to the front
soon for settlement. In Its forty-one
years of history the ronfercnce has
reached a total of over 1U5.0Q0 mem
bers und 260 pastors, which classes
this conference os tho largest Meth
odist body In the United States. There
a; a two reasons for division. One Is
that as great interests as are committed
to this conference for so large a con
stituency can not be properly handled
In a session of five days and one Sub
bath. While there Is not much con
fusion, yet there Is a hurry about bus
iness matters In the dally sessions and
In tho committee meetings that Is not
for the best of the church's great In
terests. The second reason Is that It
puts a tension on the hospitality of any
large town or city to entertain tho 400
of the great conference.
The subject of preachers’ salaries Is
In the limelight In other sections of
the States, and there Is n demand for
Increase, as the cost of living has In
creased. Among Georgia Methodists
not much is being said. The average
salary of a North Georgia Methodist
pastor Is 3660. The two lowest sala
ries are. 3136.10 at a factory mission
and 3160 In a country mission. The
highest salaried pastor Is at Trinity,
Atlanta, who received last year 33,500.
The presiding elder of Atlanta district
was next highest, 33,000. First church,
Atlanta, and St. Mark paid 32.600. St.
John, Augusta, last year paid 32.400.
First church, Athens; Wesley Memo
rial, Atlanta; Grace, Atlanta, nnd St.
James, Augusta, each paid 32,000. The
salaries of the eleven presiding elders
average 32,100. Tho average of the
eight highest pastors Is 32,300. The
average of the nineteen highest paid
men In the conference Is 12,200.
Better Salaries.
As Indicative of growing sentiment
In favor of better salaries, the susten-
tatlon committee of the Rock River
Conference of the Northern Methodist
church reported at Its meeting In Chi
cago that It had decided to make an
effort to raise enough money so that
no minister might receive lees than
31.000 a year, and the laymen of the
conference at their own meeting adopt
ed by acclamation a resolution favor
ing the Increase In salaries.
The Chicago Tribune has received
reports from ten conferences In Illinois
and neighboring states at which the
subject was discussed and the opinion
expressed that unless quick action was
taken there would be a dearth of
preachers.
What may be regarded as an ex
treme Illustration of the present ten
dency comes from the Des Moines
Conference, held at Council BlulTs,
Iowa, where It was reported that thirty-
seven of the 217 pulpits are vacant be
cause of the Insufficient salary, where
as ten years ago there were ten more
preachers than pulpits In the confer
ence.

TO ASK COUNCIL
FOR A COMMITTEE
The president and a committee from
the chamber of commerce and a num
ber of leading prohibitionists of the
city will appear before council Monday
to urge the appointment of a committee
to go to Chicago to secure the next
national convention of the Prohibition
party for Atlanta
It I* understood that Mayor Joyner
will send a communication to council
urging the appointment of a committee
of two to make the trip, and It is not
doubted that council will vote accord
ingly.
President Pope, of the Atlanta Cham
ber of Commerce, will represent that
body, and.a number of citizens who are
prohibitionists are expected to accom
pany him. Thp executive committee
of the Prohibitionists meet at Chicago

either side, Miss Parmenter.”
"Will you go?" she cried.
"I beg you’’—
As he was speaking the door was
opened from without and Jack entered,
"Hullo,” he exclaimed, in surprise ar
seeing Merrldew with Olive.
Merrldew \yas not In the least dis
concerted. "I came to make Miss Par
menter an offer which I should like to
repeat in your presence, Mr. Fenwick,"
he said.
"He first asked me to marry him.
Jack, and then offered me a sum of
hush money to agree in the wrong he
has done me. I have ordered him to
leave the room, and he has refused to
go."
"Then It's my turn," said Jack very*
quietly. "Now, sir, ore you going?"
"I wish to discuss”—
"Are you going? I shan’t ask you
again.”
"There Is no ground for your Inter
ference," began Merrldew, rising; .but
Jack gave him no time to finish the
sentence. Tuckllng him with the ,skill
of a first-class footballer, he first shook
him till his teeth rAttled together, and
hustled him out of the room and
along the hall to the front door and
sent him staggering down the short
flight at steps with tho force of a cou
ple of lusty kicks. Then he returned
ar.d fetched his hat and threw' It after

Merrldew picked up his hat amid the
Jeers of a couple of small boys who
were passing and with a scowl of hate
at Jack Jumped Into the carriage which
was waiting and drove oft.
"I feel decidedly better for that,"
laughed Jack, as he rejoined Olive.
"I’ve owed him that ever slnco that day
at Silverbeeeh, and there’s still a little
unpaid balance to come to him.”
"He came to try and make terms. He
is getting a little uneasy. He has cause,
too," declared Olive.
"Have you found out anything, then,
while I hovejieen in Paris?"
"I’m going to."
"That girl Hammond?"
"Yes; partly. I met her and she re
peated what I told you before, that
there Is a plot on foot which concerns
you.”
"I don’t take it seriously, Olive,” he
replied lightly. "Anyhow', they'll have
to put It off for a while. Berlin, this

"Well. I hope I shall have news for

"I hope It won’t be that you have got
into any trouble, girlie. I was so un
easy while in Paris I could scarcely
rest."
"I shan’t get Into any trouble. Jack,"
she answered with a smile, and then
led the conversation round to his* visit
to Paris and the projected Journey to
Berlin.
She was not sorry to hear that he
would not be in London for the next
week or two. She did not tell him any
thing about the venture on which she
had decided. He would have dissuaded
her, she knew; and as he was to be
absent from town she would be spared
the difficulties she had foreseen In
meeting him. „
He had only a very short time to
spend with her and they parted with
an assurance from her that she would
write him every day. As soon as he
gone, Olive told Mrs. Robson that
she was going into the country; and
.started for her other rooms to assume
tier disguise and set out on her mis
sion to the Hartmanns.
Merridew’s visit had distinctly en
couraged her. She was certain she had
read his motive rightly—that his anx
iety to come to an arrangement waq
. aused by a consciousness of crime and
that he did not feel secure without
Olive’s acquiescence In some sett le
nt. He was the last man In the
to part with a single sovereign
unless forced by fear of losing all.
His wish to marry her sprang from
the same motive, if she were once
his wife. It would he too late for her
to raise any questions. The miill<vi9
were either hers or the Merrldew s;
and If she were his wife, they would
be secure of everything. Olive saw all
this as clearly as if Merrldew himself
hud told her.
She was fully alive, too, to the hazard
figure was clumsy, her walk ungainly
and her carriage purposely awkward,
but she had been careful not to make
her face ugly. She knew too well the
effects of good looks upon the average
man; and she might need to have re
course to this weapon.
Telling the woman of the house that
she might possibly return there that
night to sleep, she set out for Ajax
street, Brixton, the address of the
Hartmanns.
Selma Hammond had not told her
the number of their house; nnd as she,
found AJaX street contained nearly a
hundred houses, she was for the mo
ment nonplused how to find it.
As she stood staring about her, a
rather good looking young man, ob
viously a foreigner, passed and threw
an admiring glance at her direction.
Olive let fall an exclamation of em
barrassment In German; and he turn
ed, hesltnted, walked on a few steps,
paused again, and then came back and,
raising his hat, asked if he could be of
any assistance. "I think you are Ger
man," he added In that language.
Olive turned on him the battery of
her expressive eyes and, with a fervent
. exclamation of thanks, replied In Gcr-
I man that sho was looking for the house
of Frauleln Anna Hartmann.
"I am Karl Hartmann, her brother,"
he answered with evident piensure, as
he again raised his hat. "1 am on my
way home. Will you accompany me
"I am Rota Baumsteln," said Olive,
adding with a nigh and another glance,
"I am all alone In this awful city and
have been told to seek your sister
friend.”
"She will be delighted to welcome
you,” declnred the brother; nnd his
looks said quite clearly that he was
speaking rather for himself than for his
sister.
t The next minute Olive stood before
the door of their house. Her adventure
had now begun in real earnest.
CHAPTER XX.
Enrolled at a Member.
Olivo had not In the least underes
timated the yaluo of her good looks as
an aid In her new* campaign. In three
days she had established herself firmly
In the little household of the Hart
manns. The sister Anna, a rather
stout, motherly woman of about 30, hod
opened her heart straightway to
Olive, had accepted her story without
question, and had Indeed insisted that
she should remain with them from the
moment of her arrival.
The brother had been even more
cordial. He made no secret of his In
tense admiration for hla sister’s new

he was on the verge of proposing mar
riage.
Olive hail designedly led him on. It
was easentlal that he should havo
blind confidence In her, and there Is no
bllndnese of that sort so absolutely
reckless as love.
As Jack would soon be back from
Berlin, and the machinations of tho
gang commence against him, there Wag
no time to lose; and thus Olive found
a means of hastening matters. Sho
had read the man easily, and had been
able so to tone her conversation as to
completely mislead him.
At heart an ardent Socialist, he had
been led to "war upon society”—that
was Ills pet phrase to justify a life
of dishonesty—by some wrongs, real or
Imnglnury, which his parents had suf
fered. The descent had been easy*, all
the easier, Indeed, because of the jus
tification by which ha Imposed upon
hlmseir. He did not at first admit to
UllVe that he wns dishonest; but he
employed tills Indirect means of ex
cuse to prepare her for tho revelation

this feeling In n hundred ways, lead
ing him to feel that jie could count
upon her sympathy., , ,
Then suddenly she brought matters
to a crisis by announcing her Inten
tion to go away. This was one even
ing as they were .walking alone to

she made the announcement with all tho
signs of great emptlonnl distress.
