DOUBLE ROW IN BIG MMOLE Deacons to Quit Following the Resignation of Dr. Mac- Arthur. Pastor. Continued From Page One. there is no greater institutional worker in America. "We prevailed upon him to make the sacrifice to come with us, and. of course, we sent in that report. But we found when the meeting of the deacons convened that many other members of the church had been to Dr. MacArthur and had prevailed upon him to stay, so that when our committee re ported he appeared with a very long and serious face and told us in effect that be resented the action of that committee that had found another to take his pulpit. But we reminded him of his refusal to remain and he resent ed that more than anything else be fore. and it came about that when a sub-committee of that pastoral com mittee waited upon him at the Geor gian Terrace to toll him that we .had only done what he had asked us to do. and that we all loved him so that wo would be glad to have him stay along indefinitely—it came about that Dr MacArthur, old and childish, grew very wroth and told us then and there that he wanted no more committees from that church to come waiting on him; that ho was tired of the effort being made to unseat him and that he didn t want V> see us again." ‘Prescribed Customs For Tabernacle Pulpit.” "There were other things he demand 'd that lie should have an assistant; that other men coming to his pulpit to preach must wear the black robe he prescribed for himself; that the con duct of the church service must be conformable in every way to his de sires. Ami when I called his attention to the fact that he had not been con formable to the Tabernacle customs when he came to take the acting pas torate he showed more spleen than "Then came another deacons' meet ing at which he drew a paper from his pocket and said he was about to read bis resignation, but the people who bad prevailed upon him that we were seeking to oust him. caused him to change his mind again and so when he gave out notice that he had been rut to Ihe quick by the factionalism in his church and pointed me out as the ringleader of the movement against him. 1 with some others—'decided we should not remain in the church any more and the resignation followed. "Finally, of course, came the meet ing last night. I had already decided upon my course and so 1 went there letermim d to make no further opposi t ion. Decided Not. To Oppose Further. I bait I’f.ir.l that Dr. MacArthur had said that if even a portion of the peo ple who hud voted for Dr. Riley should Mid »h<>« a spirit of dissent he would hand in his resignation forthwith, de spite any refusal of the majority of the huri-11 to accept it. And since 1 knew that prod.tl.ly a large majority of ipc congregation would vote to agree to Dr MacArthur’s stipulations and would demand that he remain permanently. I k bad decided that 1 would not raise my I voice against them. I "But in thy course of that meeting ' some of Dr MacArthur's friends ini' mated hard things against the men they said were 'trying to dictate the running of the church.' Then I knew that they meant me, and I arose to de fend myself. So did some others who could not consent to sit idle and see the best work they have done for that splendid Institution traduced. Finally 1 decided that it were better to leave the meeting, and I went nut. "I have nothing further to say con cerning Dr. MacArthur or his friends' statements that discord which might easily have been averted has driven a sensitive man from the last great work of his old age. I agree with all of them that Dr. MacArthur is a splendid preacher and a great force in the Baptist church. I am sorry that this discord has come to the church I have loved and worked for so long." Al the meeting of Baptist clergymen, deacons and laity to be held tonight in an effort to bring about a great denominational appeal for Dr. Mac- Arthur's retention it is said that tew, if any. of the opposing faction will be in attendance.

There are some big guns of the photo graphic army here. Elias Goldensky. the most famous of Philadelphia’s photogra phers. is one of the lecturers, and has a wonderful exhibit of studies in artistic picture-making. Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Sykes, of Chicago, famous society photog raphers. are here, and Mrs. Sykes is one of the principal attractions of the con vention. She is an unusually handsome blonde, and what she does not know about photography would make a small volume indeed. Her husband declares that she is really “the works” of the firm. Carl E. Akerman. of New York, deliv ered an address on photographic patents. W. L Lively, of McMinnville. Tenn., president of the Southern School of Pho tography. is here to lecture on the new color process which is revolutionizing the art. and there are others of scarcely less importance in the world of the camera. Developed Without Brush. The color process will be demonstrated by Mr. Lively and Sydney \V. Whiteman, of Binghamton, N. Y.. with thirty “auto chroms" thrown on the screen from col ored slides, just as they are developed, and with not a touch of the brush. “It is the process of Lumiere Ereres, of France," said Mr. Whiteman, “and the exhibition will be the first attempt to put color-photography on a commercial basis. We expect to teach the Southern photographer how he may make ’colored pictures at home. We shall show a whole day in the home, beginning with the breakfast tables, with the, fruit and the flowers, (he meats ano the vegetables, ait in their natural colors. We shall show garden scenes, with red roses and yel low. with flowers of ever) color in one picture. “We have not yet reached the z point where we can print reallj good colored pictures on paper. So tar we have at tained onlj the colored slides, suitable for lantern use. The plates are sensi. tized with a different coat for every color »n the spectrum. They must be de veloped in an absolutely dark room and timed by a clock, for even a ruby light will ruin them.

Eversman brought a se cret message from his chief, who. he, said, would arrive tomorrow instead of coming today, as had been expected by Ihe Taft leaders. Although the mes sage brought by the congressman's sec retary was kept carefully guarded, it evidently brought cheer to the hearts of the president's supporter# and smil ing faces were in the majority about the Taft headquarters.
