J. P. Hanner art Conference in Rome Thursday Without Results. SEPARATE MEETINGS MAY BE THE RESULT Howell Committee Don’t Want to Be Placed in Attitude of Smith’s Guests. The wrangle In Rome for the Joint debate between Hoke Smith nnd Clark Howell Saturday Is still undecided. At another conference hold In Rome Thursday morning between James B. Nevln, chairman of the Howell com mlttee, and Seaborn Wright, chairman of the Smith committee, practically nothing waa accomplished In deciding the differences between them. Both adhered to their position*— right for the open air meeting, Nt ' for the opera house. After the con ference Mr. Nevln said to the Georgian representative In Rome: "We were challenged to a Joint de bate by the Smith committee upon the same terms as were prescribed In the Columbus debate, which we agreed to, and that was to have equal say when and where the debate should he held. To that proposition we will hold. ’’We do not want to bo considered In any way as Mr. Smith’s guests. Wo propose to pay our full share of tho expenses, and we think we should have equal rights In the selection of the place.” Mr. Nevln atated further that If Mr. Howell notified him that he would ac cept the terms as set forth by Mr. Smith's committee, he has nothing fur ther to say, and the debate would, be held according to the Smith plans. If Mr. Howell said nothing, his committee In Rome positively declines to yield to the proposition. Muddled, But Hss Hops. after the conference was: "Oh, well, the whole thing eeemi be In a muddle, but I trust we can come together without any trouble.” When a Georgian reporter called at Mr. Smith’s offices In Atlanta Thurs day, It was stated that Mr. Smith was not there then, but that the adjust ment of the trouble nt Rome was be ing left entirely to the aommlttee there, Mr. Howell Was seen In his office In The Constitution building, and said: "I am willing to leave the whole mat ter to my committee In Rome. What ever they decide upon I will be bound by. I do not think It fnlr, however, to be placed In tho attitude of being Mr. Smith’s guest. I talked with Mr. Nevln over the long distance this morning, I’hoto by J. N. KUHNS. WESLEY BRINSFIELD. Ths young wap granted Conference. railroad worker who license by Methodist- and he said his commltee would stand squarely by their contention for an In door debate, and an equal share of the expenses. "Aside from this I do not know that have anything further to say. The first I knew about the trouble when I returned from Athena Wednes day evening. I am not surprised, how ever, that they should seek to -take undue advantage of me, as that has been the tactics right along.” Beginning of Issue, Following the perfection of the ar rangements for the Joint debate here, “r. Smith challenged Mr. Howell tot Joint debate In Rome June 33, and another In Albany at a date between July 7 and August 1. In the light of the present wrangle In Rome the re production of this correspondence will prove Interesting: Mr. Smith’s challenge to Mr. Howell for the Rome and Albany debates was as follows: “Hon. Clark Howell, City.—Dear Sir have an engagement to speak Rome on June 23. I Invite you to meet me there at that time for a Joint discussion. If the time named conflicts with your other engagements, I will agree with you on any date between the 17th and the 24th of June. "I also Invite you to meet me In joint discussion at Albany,. Ga. “I can agree with you on any date between July 7 and August 1. "I suggest that the same rules gov ern these debates that governed the Columbus debate, you to open and con clude at one of the meetings, and I to do so at' the other, "Very truly yours, (Signed) "HOKE SMITH. "June 3, Mr. Howell’s reply was as follows: "Hon. Hoke Smith, 70S Peters build Ing, City.—Dear Sir: I have yours of even date, and In reply beg to say that I will be glad to meet you, both at Rome and at Albany—at Rome on the date Indicated by you, June 23, and'at Albany between the dates Indicated by you, July 7 and August J. ’’Very truly yours, "CLARK HOWELL. June 5, 1906.” May Speak Independently, It la probable that If arrangements are not perfected for the Joint debate that both candidates will apeak ' Rome Saturday. The Smith committee has decided j the grove at the foot of Myrtle Hill cemetery for their candidate, and 2 o'clock as the hour. If the Howell committee determines to have Mr, Howell there, Joint debate or no Joint debate, the opera house will probably selected for that msetlng. visiting Dr. and Mrs. C. E. Dowman. Little Mlaa Emma Lowry Freeman the guest of Miss Julia Porter. Miss Annie Dickey guest of Mrs. C. E Mrs. W. W. Taylor will leave next week for Wrightivllle Beach. Mra. Eugene Wilton and children. Decatur, are at Cumberland. Colonel J. W. English has returned from New York city. has returned Mra. Charles Bel pie from Chick Springs. Mr. John Kitten will return from Yale this week. With an abiding faith that he la di vinely railed to preach the gospel, yet forced by circumstances to work every day from 6:30 o'clock In the morning until 6:30 o'clock at night, that he might assist In providing the ordinary comforts of life for his father and mother, Wesley Brlnsfleld, u young Methodist local preacher whose very name breathes an Inborn spirit nf Methodism, was arraigned at the dis trict conference of the Methodist church at the Walker Street school for olattng the Sabbath day. Some said that Brother Brlnsfleld ,was working on Sunday, that be might moke more money. Yes, he was work ing on Sunday that he might hold his position by which he Is enabled to help support his good father and mother. Rev. and Mrs. Wesley W. Brlnsfleld, of Banks county, Georgia. Waa this man of God violating the Sabbath? There was a difference of opinion among the doctors of divinity. “Draw the line on Brlnsfleld,” said many of the delegate* Wednesday, while others spoke In beholf of .the young- man of blameless character. "The Lord said we should remember the Sabbath day io keep It holy, and we must draw the lino somewhere,” said ons good brother, doubtless un aware that at the very moment he was speaking the man whom he would deny the privilege of preaching the gospel to his fellows was busy at his dally task. He was unable to absent himself from his work that ho might participate In the deliberations of the body that was questioning his character. Protests Agslnat Him. Would those godly ministers draw the line on Brlnsfleld? I-'or a tlmo It seemed that they would. Urgent speeches were made by some who claimed that no man of God would work on the Sabbath day: others protested In behalf of the young man who for five years has been aligned with the Methodist church as u local preacher, and whose record was unmarred. .. .. "We are bringing Into question the character of this young man who Is not. here to speak for himself. I move that w« defer action on his license until he con come before this body and present his side of this case." These words from Hon. E. W. Martin, one of At lanta's best known) lawyers, and a lay delegate to the conference*, touched many of hli colleagues, and they all assented. < He Speaks for Himself. Wesley Brlnsfleld was to have chance to speak for hlmaelf. An hour was appointed and h* was on hand. Its took but a- few words to tell of hi* church work of the past year. The religious seal that wsi enabling him to deny himself to be able to help oth ers could not be mistaken. His high motive was a sufficiency and his unnn- Imous vindication was no surprise. The picture of that mother and father de voting their lives that they might up lift the poor and sin-ridden In a small Georgia village, with no thought of their own comfort, wa* before many of those delegates who knew Wesley Brlnsfleld's father. Another picture was before their eyes, too. Wesley Brlnsfleld, young strong, with a spirit of youth nnd good health apparent tn Ills every move ment, could bo seen at his work In the railroad office, tolling awny twelve hours every day, yet with a light heart. Sundays, too? Many times, but with the same willingness on his part, and for the same cause. Was It surprising that this young minister waa vindicated? It waa a bright, manly face, Illumi nated by a smtlf. that wa* noticed moat when Wesley Brlnsfleld spoke. The vote had Just been taken and he was happy. The privilege of preaching had not been denied hint. How happy his good mother and father would be. could be read In his clear-cut counte nance. Tall and slender, his face slightly thinned by long hours In a railroad office, neatly dressed, Brlnsfleld chat ted a few minutes with the reporter, though so modest that It was no easy matter to g#t him to tell of his work, his ambitions and his happiness at be ing assured his license to preach. "I Am Happy Now.” “I waa getting a little afrpld when I heard that my license would not he renewed, and thought I had batter come over and present my case. I am happy now, and can return to my work In an eady state of mind. I try to do all the good 1 can and, (hough I do have to work on Sunday a good deal, I have to do lt- to hold my position. I would enter tho regular ministry If I did not havo to help my father and mother. As It Is, I cannot afford to 1st them do without all the necessities of life. If I could get a pastorate that would pay me 1700 a year I would be the happiest man you ever aaw, and I would not hesitate to tako It. But I must hurry back to my work—” Wesley Brlnsfleld lives at No. 201 Kennedy street. He has been In the ministry live years and hopes some clay to have a regular pastorate Charge. He Is employed at the yard office of the Western nnd Atlantic railroad, whera he works twelve hours every day. When opportunity presents tlaelf he preaches at several little missions and on Sundays always tries to arrange hi* work so he can attend all tho church services, and It Is few that he misses. May a minister In the Methodist church work on Sunday without violat ing the Sabbath? The district confer ence at the Walker Street church de cided that with a purpose like that evinced by Wealey Brlnsfleld, the work he does on the Sabbath Is holy, and no violation of the Lord's day.

They then heard hlin descend to the first floor. The two ladles were afraid to venture down stairs, but went Into another room to call out of a window for help. Before they did so, however, the burglar again went up stairs and started through the hall. Mrs. Davis then fired three times out of a win dow, at which the Intruder fled pell- mell down the stairs and out of a back door. The shooting aroused the neighbor hood, and It wa* only a few moment* until a number of people had collected. Mr. Davis was notified at No. 9 engine station and qulckl arrived on tho scene.
