Raising Great Fund of

By HANSELL BAKER.
Brunswick, Gn», Nov. 28.—If you
were In Brunswick today we think y»u
would claim to belong to the lleth-
dlet church. If you are a politician we
know you would, for the city In Metho-
di*t by a large majority.
The Methodjst preacbere, delegates

ference are here, and here by large
number*. They have taken the city by

und wherever you turn you will me.

The bishop has held hi* cabinet meet
Ing and outlined the proceeding* of the

bualnesf, and the detail* were not given
to the public. But one thing 1* certain:
The Methodist* of the South Georgia
Conference are elated at the progress
made by. the advocate* of prohibition—
.-net Only 'In Georgia, but in Alabama
and elMtrhcre, ana. more than that, ev
ery Methodist approached by The Geor

econlums of The Atlanta Georgian, and
enthusiastically commendatory of the
stand that the paper has taken In the
liquor question
Are you a Georgian? Veil, accord
Ing to the average delegate to the
South Georgia Conference, If you are
an Atlanta Georgian you arc all right.
And, furthermore, according to the
average Brunswlcker, If you are
.Methodist delegate to the South Geor
gia Methodist Conference, you are the
guest of the city of Brunswick—the
city by the sea—and If there Is any
thing you want, and don’t see, why Just
call for It and It’s yours.
Million- For Missions.
The mission board of the conference
held a pre-conference meeting. There
was plenty of enthusiasm at this meet
ing. and It wasn’t all talk, for the board
ununlmously approved of the move
ment to raise 11,000,000 for mission
work, and If MethodlNts everywhere In
the country are ss enthusiastic and ns
earnest as the Methodists of this mis
sion board, this million dollar* will not
be hard to raise.
Seldom has such a congregation gath
ered as was present to hear Rev. Mr.
Cook at the First Methodist church. Mr.
Cook was formerly an active member
and chaplain of the Brunswick Rifle
men, and that military company and
■he Atlantic Band turned out en masse
to hear his address. His address was
forreful and Interesting and at Its con
clusion the member* of the military
company and the band flocked to the
front and gave him the "glad hand."
He received an ovation that he will
probably not soon forget. Rev. Ed.
Cook Is the hero of the hour with the
military boys, and hi* ability Is only
equalled by his personal popularity.
Bryan Has Friends.
One of the chief matters of interest
here Is the chnrges against Rev. S. H.
Bryan, formerly of Millen. His pre
siding elder, when Mr. Bryan’s name
was called, aroee and stated that Rev.
Bryan was charged with Immoral con
duct and called on the conference for
nn Investigation of these charges. The
conference will take this matter up and
Investigate Mr. Bryan. Mr. Bryan has
many friends In the conference and
they are positive that he will come
dear. But the matter will be gone
Into thoroughly and his record will be
■ ally Investigated.
The weather Is Ideal conference
'leather. It Is clear and cool, yet not
cold enough for overcoats. The dele
gates are enjoying their stay In the
city by the sea, and are looking for
ward with pleasure to the oyster roast
and trip down the bay and out to sea.
When conference opened there was
one of the largest audiences present
that has ever assembled In any house
of worship In the city of Brunswick.
Bishop Atkins presided with dignity
and grace and received many com
pliments on the way he dispatched
business.

“Be careful, Enoch," said Sheriff
Morris. “Don’t get excited and move

A few minutes’ rest and Sanders
calmed down and after a few gasps he
continued:
“They had me w*here they wanted
me. I had no witnesses In my behalf.
They testified for each other and made
me a would-be murderer and suicide.
But I am not. Bertha knows It, and

An unfortunate,victim of a con
spiracy on the part of a mother and
her son—that Is what Enoch Sanders,
lying In tho DeKaib county Jail at De
catur with his throa{ alashed from ear
to ear, claims.
He claims that not only did he not
inflict the wounds on Mrs. Alice San- . 5rjP*?*^j25
den, his sister-in-law. and her daugh
ter Bertha, but that his own danger
ous condition Is the result of an at
tempt made on his life.
A night's rest In Jail, a strong cup
of coffee taken Thursday morning and
the attention of Copnty Physician W.
J. Houston worked wonders with San
ders. From what was thought by L1-,
thonla physicians to be a dying man,
unable to sit up, Sanders was trans
formed into a prisoner with consider
able show of life. Rut even yet he can
hardly talk above a whisper, although
he can walk without assistance.
Thursday morning Dr. Houston wnsj
sent for by Sheriff Charles A. Morris,
of DeKaib county, and lie removed the
bandages on the man's neck. The!
wound was In good condition. *
Sanders was able to swallow drink |
and Dr. Houston gave him some coffee
and -some liquid medical food. When
the doctor had packed up his surgeon's
kit and Sanders returned to the cot In I
his cell, ho felt better und he weakly j
consented to tell of the troubles In the*
family which placed him In Jail with
his throat cut.
"You see In me,” he said with some
diffeulty, "a victim of a conspiracy. I
did not cut my thront. Either my sls-
ter-ln-law, her son, Cliff, or some oth
er merpber of the family did It. I did
not attempt to cut Bertha's throat,
wouldn't harm a hair on that child’s
heud.
"Somebody Did It.”
"I think more of that girl than any
body In this world and I would be the
last person to do her harm. No. It was
somebody In that crowd who did this
work.
"Yesterday morning when this trou
ble occurred, I went Into the kitchen as
usual and began talking with Bertha
and her mother. The proposed trip to
Atlanta on Thanksgiving day was
brought up and again I expressed the
opinion that neither Bertha nor her
New York, Nov. 28.—Three distinct
explosions, followed by Are' In a big
building adjoining the branch of the
Borough Bank, at Flfty-flrst street and
Third avenue, Brooklyn, which for a
time threatened destruction to nil the
buildings on the block? gave rise early
today to a rumor that nn attempt had
been made to blow ' the safe of the
bank.
The bank occupied the corner and
next door Is a building, the ground
floor of which Is occupied by a restau
rant. The lire started In the restau
rant and quickly Jumped to the next
floor, occupied by a bowling alley. It
then worked Its way along through
the various houses.
When the flremen came the blase had
gained such headway that a hat
wair necessary to check It.
Henry Stokes, an employee of the
bank, said lie was awakened by three
distinct explosions and that he ran
from his rooms over the branch bank
to the street before the Are had gotten
a good start.

Extra Session Likely.
AIJ of the bills flied by the railroads
attack the classification acts of the
special session as being “manifestly un
fair and unjust.” Railroads which en
tered Into an agreement with Gov
ernor Comer, It Is alleged, were given
“unjust and Illegal preference over the
railroads which failed or refused to
enter Into the agreement, and are per
mitted to charge a muck higher rate.’*
The Louisville and Nashville filed a
supplemental bill tonight with the Uni
ted States court, praying that the liti
gation on the docket of the court, in
respect to the old laws, shall not be
dismissed.
Governor Comer Is out of the city,
and it Is not known what action will be
taken. Some seem to think the move
will cause another extra session of the
legislature. Colonel 8. W. John, of
1 Birmingham, one of the Comer leaders,
seems to take this view.
Attorney General Garber said that
he would examine tl\e bills and would
call a conference of the states’ lawyers
before taking any action.
