DECEMBER ZU, WRECKERS TEAR DOWN ANCIENT TRINITY SPIRE The high, slate-covered steeple which ter 41 years has stood as a silent guard, towering nearly 200 feet above the side walk. over old Trinity Methodist church, corner Trinity avenue and Whitehall street, ci unibled into the dust today. Wreckers engaged in tearing down the old church, to make way for a modern business building, this morning attacked the old steeple. A section about 30 feet long was sawed off, and a Idg automobile truck hitched to a long cable rope quickly demolished the old landmark. All the stei pie. and all of the building over which it stood watch, i will be gone in another day or two. Removing tile steeple was a difficult task, but the modern auto truck, un known in 1871. when the -teeple was I constructed, solved the problem. Until | workmen climbed the high spire with j saw and hatchet with which to tear it | down its interior bad not been visited by hum in beings since the last nail was driven in its construction In the fall of 1871. But while man had contented himself during these long tears at gazing to its top from vantage points for blocks around, birds and insects had built their homes and Increased their tribes witbin It. For when the auto truck had done its work today and the sun's rnys had penetrated the long d.ik cham bers many odd homes of the feathered folk were discovered. Pigeon and sparrow m sts galore, an old honey bee's comb and anv number of wasp nests were found. The same slate placed on the steeple by hands that have since ceased to work had remained undisturbed. It was In good Condition when removed, and the tim- LYNCHING NEAR MERIDIAN. MERIDIAN MISS .

A. W. FITE. Tm OF BBIGIDE POST PLAN HEID BIGONCBESS Atlanta Must Stir Georgia Rep resentatives to Seek Appro priation. Says Wood. If Atlanta wants a brigade post, all the city has to do. aceording to Major General Leonard Wood, chief of staff of the United States army, is to stir up j the Georgia congressmen that congress may be persuaded to make suflieient appropriation. •'So far as the policy of the war de pariment is concerned,” declared Gen eral Wood at a banquet given in his honor by the Chamber of Commerce last night at the Capital City club, ‘ the idea is to build a brigade post at Fort ?.1i Phot son. The purpose r to have Atlanta for an h’.fantry brigade and Ci uttanooga for a cavalry brigade. But 1 this wi!l r. quire eonsiderabh iimn-.y. In j carrying out the plans, you must expect ito encounter much opposition, selfish ! in character, but still quite natural in | the prospective abolition of certain in • teiiof posts.” Wilmer L. Moore, president of tl” I Chamber of Commerce, presided as toastmaster and introduced Governor Joseph M. Brown, Governor-elect John M. Slaton. General A. .1. We,-t and Clark Howell in turn, and Mr. Howell intro duced General Wood. General Wood Talks on. War. “Preparedness” and “unprepared ness” for war were taken up by Gen eral Wood, and some of his assertions were a revelation to the assemblage. “If we hold the Panama canal inse curely,” he declared, “it is a great source of weakness, and the converse I* true. We have never in all our History faced a first-class nation pre oared for war. Tn the Revolution we riiade a creditable showing, but the French saved us. We must be prepared at all times to repel invading forces. I We wouldn't expect undeveloped gold . fields In Alaska to be of service in Wall , ■ Street. If anybody proposed that you go out untrained and tackle the proto- | I type of John L. Sullivan, you would , ! hesitate. “We are truly a warlike people. We , i can whip anybody, but we are not a , military people, and there is a vast dit- ; : ference. We are so short of ammuni- i ■ tion and arms that we couldn t right i i now put a real fighting force in the . ' field. There is a lot of talk about arbi- ! nation and peace, but we must have I the means to fight. "We need 450,000 additional men and j 16,000 officers to establish a proper ! mobile army. Where are we to get I I them? The army hopes to recruit them ; from the reserve which has been estab- : lished. We have only to consider a few | cold facts to realize where we stand In i regard to a fighting force. Last year the country spent more for automobile tires than was spent on the navy, and chauffeurs cost more than the army. Hopes Atlanta Gets Post. “I believe we shall not be forced out of the Philippines, but shall leave them I 1 at our pleasure. However, we must be ’ prepared for war if we would protect i ourselves, and the foundation of bri- ) gade posts will do much in that direc- ‘ tion. 1 have always had a warm spot in I ■ my heart for Atlanta, and I sincerely hope Atlanta will get a post at the ear- ; liest possible time.” THE ATLANTA ALL THIS WEEK D^ ,N 3 E P ES M .
