the preachers who are here, together
with a good attendance of cttlsens, as
sembled to hear the reports of the
president and treasurer of the chief
beneficiary association of the confer
ence—the Widows and Orphans' Aid
Society.
Rev. M. J. Cofer, president, made
gratifying statement of the operations
of the society In the past, showing that
912,001) to 916,000 had been distributed
to the widows and orphans of de
ceased preachers In Its history. This
has been done by an assessment of 92
on each member on the death of a
member, together with 9100 given out
of a vested fund. The families of
preachers who have died this year
liave received 9400 each. The society
now has over 97.000 at Interest. Lay
men can be non-participating mem
here. They pay 91 on the death of a
preacher.
Secretary-treasurer Ledbetter made
tits report, which was a fins financial
exhibit of the operations of 1907. It
Is the duty of this officer to put 9100
In the hands of the widow of a de
ceased member within 24 or 49 hours
after death, which comes out of a
vested fund that Is now at Interest
and amounts to 91,400. A fund of
96,000, the gift of Y, L. G. Harris, of
Athens. Da., la at Interest and helps the
society’s beneficiary work.
Now Members Added.
The amendment to the constitution
that allowed local preachers to be mem
bers of the society was rescinded by a
vote of the body.

mentioned tbnt one of the preacher!
In his district had died thls.year who
was not a member of the society and
that 970 hffd been voluntarily contrib
uted to his widow. Had he been I
member she would have received 9400.
on the call of the president for new
members twelve new names were added
to the roll, which now contains about
200 preachers.
A committee consisting of Revs. W.
_i. Butler, Henry B. Mays and George
D. Stone was named to solicit new
members during the session.

ference, this being hie 60th year as an
Itinerant preacher. He hae been a mem

be the be*t method ot keeping track of
crooka, nud of even Innocent person*, and
no one know* better than Deputy Warden C.
C. McClaughry, of the Federal prison, lu
Atlanta.
This was first brought Captain Me-
Clnughry’s attention nlmut six years ago,
when he was warden of the Wisconsin
state prison nt Wnuptin, Wls., nml at the
same time n good Methodist preacher of
thnt state never knew how near he came.to
being clnsviflei with criminals, and how
finger prints saved him.
t'lMitnln McClaughry was In a remlulsceut
flood Tuesday when he signed the paper*
iblcli gore lllnck Hilly IJmg, the notorious
yegguinn. his release from the federal
prison, and ho told a Georgian reporter how
eron the Hertlllon system failed to show a
difference between two men thnt would
hare been fatal to the character nml repu
tation of one of these.
In 1901. while Captain McClaughry was
nt the Wisconsin prison, he received an ap
plication from a preacher for, the position of
chnplaln. The preacher came- well recom
mended by the lioard controlling the Insti
tution, but It was up to Captain McClaugh
ry to fill the position. v
Hut there was something about the man’s
face that worried the warden, and he had
a feeling thnt he had seen him 1»cfore and
that there was some hidden psst his mem
ory failed to recall.
That night he lay awake and pondered.
Then It occurred to him with a shock where
he had seen tbnt face.
Wat He a Convict?
"As snre ns I lire,” mattered tho war
den, "he Is No. 45, In Leavenworth. I can’t
be mistaken. 1 never would forget that
face.’’
Now, fares and photographs appear to
Captain McClaughry differently than to
most people. He has an artistic strain In
him that his father, one of the most fa
mous criminologists Ip the country, and
now warden of the united States peniten
tiary at Fort Leavenworth, spent thousands
of dollars In having cultivated. He looks j
at s picture with the eve of an artist, and
noses, eyes and expressions are seen to him
when they would bo overlooked by mother.
Might Into his study went Captain Me-
Clnughry that night and looked over his
album of "mugs. That Is to isy, he got
out those books In which were pasted and
Indexed pictures of crooks In various peni
tentiaries. And he found his man In No. "
nt Leavenworth.
More astounding than the similarity In
the two faces was the fact that—
Hoth men had the Identical name and
both were preachers.
Could anybody l»e blamed for concluding
they were one and the same man?
Consulted Bsrtillon,
Not at all. Hut Captain McClaughry did
not stop there. He got No. 46’s Hertlllon
measurements. Of eourse he didn’t have

By THEODORE H. TILLER.
Washington, Nov. 20.—It It no se.
cret, Indeed It le one of the pathetic
slde-llghta on the Bradley trial, that
her counsel are defending the practi
cally pennlleee women without pay and
without price. There is to be no recom
pense for them regardless of the out
come, save the satisfaction of a duty
well done and a woman's gratitude.
It le not generally known, however,
that thle le the third woman whom
Judge Orlando Powers, chief counsel
for Mrs. Bradley, has defended without
return for hla cervices. The other two
ho acquitted. Ho Is making the fight
of his life now for a third victory, and
that fight la waging around the frail
form of Anna M. Bradley, on the charge
of slaying. Just a* the other two wom
en were, the man she loved.
A number of years ago Judge Pow
ers undertook hln first caae for sym
pathy's take. The. defendant was a
young girl whom a man had wronged
and then Jilted. ' Like Mrs. Bradley,
• he no doubt suffered the tortures of
the damned, until, ct last, the tension
btoke and tho next scene finds us In a
court room with the jilted girl at the
bar.
She was accused of shooting her
lover In the back es he crossed the
street with her rival. In the far Went
juries, aa a main thing, are not Inclined
to see womanhood and Its purity
abused In this manner. Judge Powers
made an eloqbent plea for hln little
client and her wrongs, and It did not
go unanswered. She walked from the
court room a free woman, thanking her
benefactor with her tears and kisses—
all sho possessed.
Will he be as successful In Mrs.
Bradley's ca*e7 Can there be any story
ever told that excelled In eorrow and
suffering that unfolded upon the wit
ness stand by this lone woman today
and yesterday? It Is hard to believe
■o, and with this knowledge comes the
thought that both Mrs. Bradley and
her unpaid counsel trust In the com
forting assurance "unto each day the
strength thereof."
