Lalf'ollette has bitterly opposed ROoS'-vc.lt in th* North west.

"I want to give the people of North Dakota a word of war ning,” cried .the colonel. ''Look out for the man that is going about attacking the Progres sive .party.

The Sacred Harp singers, including all factions, have their own peculiar style of writing music and of -singing it. They retain the four parts, but in stead of soprano, the htgh female voice is known as treble and pronounced “tiibble.” The notes are only four in number, are indicated by peculiar shapes as well as by their position on the staff, and are called “Mi. Fa. So! and La." When a hymn is announced, the congregation first sings lire note*, calling them by name, and after- a stanza of this the words are sung. The Sacred Harpists have no objection to instrumental musk-, and an organ is sometimes used, though musicians trained in the more accepted school of music find difficulty in playing from the Sa* red Har p hymnals. There was music resounding from both churches today when the rival conventions were under way. The strains oS “Ninety-Fifth." "Liverpool” and "Talbotton," sung by lusty' voices, could be heard a block away. There was an occasional prayer-, but no preaching. For the Sacred Harpists came to -ing. eat a basket dinner, and then sing again. They will continue for three days, and before they end their meeting- will have gone clear through the rival song books and back again.

Defying the police and the courts in a fight for his three-year-old sor., Rudolph Getter, of No. 9 Nesbit streer charged with kidnaping, was arrest*-.’ in Macon and brought to Atlanta to day. He is held in the Tower on a criminal warrant sworn out by hi wife, who is striving to recover t, child, which has vanished. Getter, facing the charge of kidna, - ing. and possibly one of contempt *■ court, remained cool and firm. Wh«n he was found in Macon after a long hunt in which his wife took the leaf, the child, Theodore, a bright sturil youngster. Was not with him. He re fused to tell where he had left the baby. "My little boy is in good hands," h« said. "1 mean to see that Ire sta .- there." All effort to learn the hiding place from the father failed. He declared his wife was too fond of dance-- an,! other amusement to be a proper- guar dian for the child. He said he had contributed more to its support than required by court. Boy Spirited Away. "I don't see how* a father can kidn; ' his own son.” he added.
