TTTE ATLANTA GEORGIAN ANT* NEWS, FRIDAY. MAY 23. mir?
NEXT YEAR, SAYS
List to the Noises
That Annoy Chicago!
(’HK’AGO, May 23.—When h City
Council committee began its in
vestigation of unn ere ; *sary noise
He I in Chicago, protests were entered
against roosters, pet dogs, a cow, mo-
toroycies, electric pianos and practic
ing voice lessons.
Alderman Nanee, chairman of the
committee, read to the committeemen
a list of noises against which he had
received complaints, which included
chiming church bells at 6 a. m.. shout
ing of peddlers, policemen's whistles,
rumbling of elevated trains, and one
man wrote that a cabaret perform

Harriet* to Unite Presbyterian Churches
Than to Bring Toget her North and
South After War, He Declares.
By REV. CHARLES STELZLE.
“When I came here forty-nine years ago, it was in the spirit
of war. When I returned tin* other day. it was in the spirit of
the Prince oi jVaee. was the way Ueneral Robert N. Adams, of
Minneapolis pul it when addres-in?: llie Northern Presbyterian
Assembly yesterday General Adams oas been preaching the mes
sage oi the l > i"iiH , .e ol Peace lor a good many years.
After the war he became a
preacher, going to the rough re
gions of the Northwest country.
For a long time he has been su
perintendent of home missions
in the State of Minnesota, re
tiring a short time ago on ac
count of impaired health,
inarched into Atlanta with Gen
eral Sherman and is the only
surviving general of the famous
group that followed Sherman
“from Atlanta to the sea.”
“Not only a united republic, but a
united church." is the message that
Genera! Adams is now preaching. But
it seems to be more difficult to unite from sleeping
the church than it does to get to
gether the citizens of the Republic.
Religious prejudice dies hard. This
has been made apparent in some of
the meetings of the assemblies. But
It isn’t altogether prejudice, eitner,
that keeps men apart. It is often
sincere devotion to truth, and it of
ten happens that both opponents have
right on their side. Men change their
political faiths far more readily than
they do their religious convictions.
Churches Working Together.
Rut it is still true that men with
different religious beliefs are work
ing together far more generaily than
do men with different political be
liefs. It isn’t often that the Demo
crats and the Republicans sit down
to map out a campaign which is to
bring neither of them profit nor
glory. So you Atlantans who have
been smiling at what sometimes
seemed like a religious row don't for
get that the politicians haven't come
anywhere near the church in unity
and co-operation.
The Southern Assembly yesterday
demonstrated that fact just stated
by deciding to remain within the Fed
eral Council of Churches. And it
wasn't a very easy thing to do. cither,
for there were many things that hurt
•when they voted favorably upon the
resolution. So strongly did it affect
one veteran who has been fighting
“the battles of the Lord” that he im
pulsively surrendered his sent as a I
commissioner, but he showed his real |
greatness by coming back in th* aft
ernoon, repentant. This commissioner
has real convictions. He’s been suf
fering on account of them.
Prejudice Giving Way.
Rut i» has been revealed in the
meetings of these Assemblies that
every denominational prejudice and
all sectarian pa-sion must give wa
before the spirit of which General
Adams spoke—the spirit of the Prince
of Peace. There’s no other way.
Next year will undoubtedly see the
bringing together into one denomina
tion of the United Presbyterian and
the Southern Assemblies. Then the
Northern Assembly will unite wit >
the Reformed Church of the United
States. The plan is already set up.
It simply' requires a little more time,
for such matters c an not he rushed.
Then, perhaps, some time in the near
future all these bodies will get to
gether.
In many respects the Protestant
Churches of the United States are
already in one group. worMng out
some great problems. Yesterday the
Northern Assembly listened to Dr.
Charles S. Maefirland, Secretary of
the Federal Council. He brought j
greetings from thirty denomination-j
and 20,000.000 Protestants in Ehi-
country. These groups are working
harmoniously for the building up of
a great Kingdom of God in Am a a,
and they’re building fast. Then the
Assembly listened to Dr. David G.
Wylie, who represented the "Alii
ance of Reformed Churches, holding
the Presbyterian System of Belief."
In this long-named society there are
30.000.000 Protestants in every part
of the world, who believe in the Pres
byterian doctrine. And 30,00 TOO'
Presbyterians can wield some influ
ence in the world. They’re doing it.
too. but this isn’t a subject th.'i one
of them can freely talk about.
Sees Church Unity.
Other fraternal delegates vpoke
he Assembly, each <»f them repre
renting a very considerable group-of
Christian men and women working >r
some part of the globe in the spirit of
the “Prince of Peace.’’ and most of
then? expressed a longing for the time
when “ail should be one.” .
“When 1 returned the other day. it
was in the spirit of the Prince of
Peace.” said General Adams. With
out fear of serious contradiction, tin
commissioners who to-day close their
sessions in Atlanta may say that
when another General Assembly—of
any of the three branches that hav.
been here for ten days -meets in this
city, it will represent not merely one
of the three, but al! of them.

ORAN, ALGERIA. May 23.—Word
was received here to-day from the in
terior that Moorish bandits attacked
a mail van enroute to Taourirt, ab

and a passenger was seriously
wounded. The bandits escaped into

Charges by George W. Crabtree, a
Presbyterian prison evangelist, that
Fulton County convicts are cruel
treated h\ guards under Captain Tom
Donaldson, hav brought a denial
from Shelby Smith, chairman of the
Fulton County Prison Commission.
The evangelist said he was pro
hibited from holding evangelistic
services in the camp save on Sunday,
chairman Smith denies the cruelt>
charges, but admits the other, saying
the welfare of the prisoners demands
that no services he held on working
days.
Further than to deny cruel treat
ment, Captain Donaldson declined to
answer the charges made against him.
Chairman Smith himself had little
to say except about the evangelistic
services.
"Among the 700 prisoners in this
county are ten murderers and many
other desperate characters, who obvi
ously make many restrictions .neces
sary,” lie said. “They work hard
every day. and when they get through
they need a bath and a good night’s
rest. To hold religious services at
night, after a hard day’s work, would
be impractical for the prisoners, im
practical for the guards and imprac
tical for the other attendants. 1 favor
holding religious services only op
Sunday.”

Chronic Sufferers Find Relief
After Few Doses Are Taken.
If you are bothered with backache -
or rheumatism, have disagreeable, an
noying bladder or urinary disorders to
contend with or suffer with any other
of the many miseries that come from
weak kidneys, here is a guaranteed
reniedj you can depend upon, no mat
ter what else may have failed to cure
you.
h Is a positive fact that the new
discoVery, Croxone. promptly over
comes such diseases. It j.s the most
wonderful remedy ever made for rid
ding the system of uric acid.
It soaks right In and cleans out the
stopped-up kidneys and makes them
filter and sift out all the poisonous
waste matter from the blood. It neu-
tralizea and dissolves the uric acid that*
lodges in the joints and muscles, caus
ing rheumatism; soothes and heals the
delicate finings of the bladder
More than a few doses of Croxone
are seldom required to relieve even
the obstinate, long-standing cases.
You will find Croxone entirely dif-
fevent. from all other remedies. It is
prepared that it is practically im
possible to take it into the human sys
tem without results. An original pack
age costs but a trifle All druggists
are authorized to return the purchase
price if Croxone fails to give the de
sired results the very first time.
