PEACE RETURNS
TO TABERNACLE
All Differences Adjusted, and
Dr. MacArthur Will Remain
as Pastor of Church.
! Dr. R. S. MacArthur will remain as
pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist
church.
An announcement to that effect,
bearing out. the forecast in yesterday's
Georgian, was made today by C. \V.
Hatcher. Dr. MacArthur's closest friend
in I he church.
"All differences have hern adjusted."
said Mr. Hatcher, "All those who were
dissatisfied are now satisfied and
tilings will proceed as before, with
Dr. MacArthur as permanent head of
the church. His agreement to stay is
in no wise indefinite or temporary. He
lias agreed to stay, and the church Is
not looking for another man.”
D>. MacArthur announced yesterday
afternoon that he would stay, but it
was not then known whether lie meant
to remain permanently or until a con
ference could he held. It was thought
by some that he would stay only until
the church could make other provisions.
In spite of this optimistic announce
ment. H. A. Etheridge, leader of the
so-called insurgents, would not say that
the trouble was over or that he would
rescind his decision to leave the church.
"I •an not say what will happen. I
am not in a position to say anything.”
he declared.

BIG STRIKE TIES
UPBDSTONCARS
Service on Elevated and in
Subways Badly Crippled.
Rioting Is General.
BOSTON, June 7. —Boston elevated
railway union employees went on strike
shortly after 4 o’clock this morning.
Ckr service in the subways, in the
downtown districts and in Cambridge.
Somerville. Malden. Melrose and other
cities within a ten-mil# radius is badly
crippled.
The strike vote was taken at a meet
ing of 2.000 men in Payne Memorial
hall and was practically’ unanimous.
Disorder broke out immediately aft
erward. When the men left the meet
ing a car was passing Castle Square.
They drove the crew off. cub the trolley
rope and took the controller handle.
Twenty cars were wrecked in differ
ent parts of the city, a score of people
were slightly injured and the service
was badly crippled.
1.400 Police For Emergency.
Superintendent of Police Pierce is
sued orders for all patrolmen on "day
off” to report for duty and for all those
who were on duty early last night to
report, fourteen hundred police wer. -
marshaled for emetgency duty.
The result of the strike was feit in
every district of the city. The number
of cars running was badly curtailed and
what ears did not run found themselves
jammed with passengers before they
had gone two blocks from the termi
nals. Many were forced to walk all or
part of the way to their work.
The traffic In the new Cambridge
subway was disrupted. Ten strikers in
uniforms, but without their badges,
tried to get the crews of the trains off.
A Crowd of 50 strikers stopped some
of the ears in East Cambridge and
tried to get the crews to quit. They'
had bugles and- shouted and sang as
they marched through the streets. Pour
cars were stalled at the entrance tn the
viaduct in Cambridge. Three of them
were completely wrecked.
1.300 Strike-Breakers Imported.
The Boston elevated railway has
called to its aid 1.300 men from New
York. Philadelphia and Newark to oper
ate cars. Os these 800 came to Boston
during the last two days and within
twelve hours there will be 500 more.
L’nion leaders claimed a total of 3,500
members from the various divisions of
the elevated.
The Boston Elevated Company em
ploys 8,000 men, 5.000 of whom are in
the uniformed service. It operates
509 1-2 miles of track. One million
passengers are carried every day. The
strikers demand an increase of wages.
JONES CHAMPION
DE GOSPEL ADS
Bob Jones, the evangelist who is now
conducting a revival campaign at the
First Methodist church, will speak to
men only at the Auditorium Sunday'
afternoon at 3:30 o’clock on the "Se
cret Sins of Men.” This is the same
address the revivalist has given in over
100 large cities of the country tn a
campaign for municipal purity.
"I see lam being taken to task for
advertising." said Bob Jones to The
Georgian. “Well. I am an advertising
preacher and believe in advertising.
What's mote. I believe in paying for It
whenever I can, and am going to put
display ads In the Atlanta newspapers
because 1 do want to reach the men of
this city, and I know that advertising
is the only way to get results these
days.
"So let me state right here that those
who believe the Gospel is going to be
tainted by advertising ape behind the
times. Peter did not hesitate to take
advantage of Pentecost and the big
crowd that assembled at that time be
cause he had a message and he wanted
to reach the people.
Christ Approved Advertising,
“Then, too, the Savior did not hesi
tate to use a fisherman's boat because
He wanted to speak to the crowd, and
He went where the people were and
spoke to them. Ten years from now
all of the churches will be advertising,
and many already are.
"What's more. I believe in advertis
ing. and when I put my ads in the pa
pers Saturday 1 know that it will mean
there will be men In the Auditorium
Sunday afternoon. And I want them
there because 1 want Atlanta to save
this social evil just as other modern
cities are facing it. Advertising has
helped in those cities and it will help
here.
Churchgoers Sheltering Evil.
I understand from those who are in
a position to know that Atlanta, like
some other cities, is cursed with a few'
members of the lowest type of citizen
ship that exists today. This is the
church member who is never absent
from his front pew in the church Sun
day morning and who on the first of
each month takes the blood money that
Is paid to him as the owner of hotises
in which are conducted resorts of ill
fame. If I ever knew of such money
being placed in a church contribution I
would expect the lightning to strike the
building. 1 only hope some of these
church-going property owners are
present next Sunday, for I have a spe
cial message for them.
Thank God. we have the newspapers
and in resorting to them 1 am only em.
ploying the modern means by which all
others are obtaining tremendous and
immediate resu’ts."
Up and DotOn
Peachtree
“Keep Off the Roof’’
Warnings Common.
"Keep Off the Grass" has given way
in the business section of Atlanta to a
"Keep Off the Roof" sign, which is
nearly as common as the warnings
which used to be posted on various lit
tle grass plots downtown.
Hardly any place has been left in the
congested business section where a
warning against trampling on the grass
could be posted, but high on the flat
roofs of numerous buildings warnings
that no lineman or other person must
trespass are posited conspicuously.
Property owners say that In many
cases their roofs are on the same level
with roofs of other buildings and that
when telephone linemen are busy
stringing wire to one building they will
make cross-cuts over their roofs and
that hatchways and other openings to
the roof are left uncovered, allowing
rain to soak the upper floors.
Moral: Keep in With
The Head Waiter.
It's tough to have a certain winner
picked at the track and not a cent in
your pocket: It's worse to have a next
morning thirst and never the price of a
tall one: hut to have coin in your
purse, a healthy appetite, a table full
of guests at the biggest and fanciest
priced hotel in Georgia and then starve
for an hour Is the ultimate limit, ac
cording to a man who visited Atlanta
in grand opera week.
It all happened because he got In bad
with the bead waiter and his satellites.
This particular head waiter is said to
be worth about a quarter of a million,
anyway, and naturally he is chesty.
And this man had offended hirn,
Mr. Man invited an opera star and
several friends to dine. They found a
table in the main dining room. Mr.
Man was all smiles.
“Now, we’ll have everything on the
card from soup to nuts,” he said. "The
waiters all know me. Watch them
hustle.”
They waited. They waited some
more. Then they waited a while long
er. Then Mr. Man called the captain
of the servitors.
"Why can't we be served?” he asked,
hungrily. The captain was very sorry.
He ran to a side table, grabbed a bunch
of menu cards and hurried toward the
hungry party.
Just then the head waiter emerged
from his studio. He clutched the cap
tain by the arm and whispered. The
captain went back to the kitchen.
Mr. Man caught an ordinary waiter.
This one also hastened to please. The
head waiter caught bis eye and he dis
appeared. The same thing happened
to the next one, and the next. One
had served the ice water and taken an
extensive order before the grand mogul
gave him his instructions, but he never
came back.
Mr. Man drew out his watch. They
had waited an hour.
"Oh. let's go down to the grill room.”
he said. "I know a negro down there
who'll wait on us.”
And they all agreed that the grill was
really the most fun, anyway.

Hist! Atlanta's To
Have a Cabaret.
Who says little old New York's got
anything on Atlanta? We’ve got the
skyscrapers and a subway (under the
Pryor street tracks), and now we’re
going* to have a regular cabaret show.
A cabaret show (they call it caha
ray in Paree) is just like any other
vaudeville, only it’s usually a little
worse and it’s served between the fish
and the demitasse in a place with lit
tle tables and big checks, where you
can sip your soup to the tune of "The
Raggedrst Rag" and chew your steak in
waltz time. You try to keep one eye
on the dancers’ feet and the other on
your Roquefort, which is likely to es
cape. It’s quite the swell caper.
The International-Alliance Corpora
tion is springing the cabaret show on
the Atlanta public. No. it’s not a branch
of the Men and Religion Forward
Movement, though it sounds like it. It’s
a new locker club now being organized
under the constitution and by-laws of
the commonwealth of Georgia. It has
secured quarters in the Scotia apart
ments. just opposite the Aragon, and
expects to be open in a short time. At
present there Isn't an oasis in the des
ert between the Capital City and the
Candler building, fully thred blocks.
One of the clauses in the prospectus
reads: "The association will give to
its members every week a first-class
elite entertainment—in other words, a
cabaret show.”

IMPEACHMENT OF
JUDGEDEMANOED
WASHINGTON. June 7.—The im
peachment of Federal Judge Cornelius
H. Hanford, of Seattle, Wash., on the
grounds of "habitual drunkenness, cor
ruption and decisions flagrantly in vio
lation of law" formally was demanded
of the house today by Representative
Berger, the Socialist member from Wis
consin, Rising to a question of per-
- sonal privilege, the representative de
livered a scathing Indictment of the
jurist, reciting among his charges the
case wherein he revoked the natural
ization papers of Leonard Oleson be
cause he was a Socialist, and his in
junction in the alleged interests of the
. Seattle, Benton and Southern railway.
The resolutions of impeachment are
in part as follows:
"Resolved, That the committee on ju
diciary be directed to inquire and re
port whether the action of this house Is
1 necessary concerning the official mis
conduct of Cornelius H. Hanford;
whether he has been repeatedly in a
drunken condition while presiding in
court: whether he has been guilty of
corruption in the conduct of his of
fice. and whether hi* administration hag
resulted in injury and wrong to liti
gants in his court and to others affected
by his decisions."
Wickersham Sees "Gross Injustice."
Among the specifications in the reso
lution of impeachment is the statement
“ that Oleson, who is a Socialist, was dr
-1 prived of his right to vote without
due process of lav.. In this connection
1 a letter was produced from Attorney
- General Wickersham stating that, in
1 the opinion of the department of jus
' tlce, Oleson has suffered a "gross In
-1 justice.”
Berger added that Hanford's repu
tation for rendering corrupt decisions
' “is a matter of long standing noto
-1 riety." Hr declared that on one occa
-1 sion 5,000 citizens held a mass meeting
• to protest against one of his decisions.
