Saturday afternoon at 1 o'clock.
After the morning conference
Rome between the chairmen of the
two committees on arrangements,
without reaching an understanding,
the Smith committee capitulated and
agreed to the terms of the Howell
committee.
Mr. Howell will open In a speech of
an hour. Mr. Sirilth will follow In an
hour and a half, and Mr. Howell will
conclude with a thirty-minute
Joinder.
The Rome committees have been
wrangling for three days before reach

Following the perfection of the ar
rangements for the Joint debate here.
Mr. Smith challenged Mr. Howell for
a Joint debate In Rome June |l, and
another In Albany at n 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 debatea was
as follows:
"Hon. Clark Howell, City.—Dear Sir:
have an engagement to apeak at
Rome on June 22. 1 Invite you to
meet ms 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 eame rules gov
ern these /debates that governed the
Columbue debate, you to open and con
clude at one of the meetings, and 1 to
do so at the other. •
"Very truly yours,
(Signed) "HOKE SMITH.
"June 5, 1906.”
Mr. Howell's reply was as follows:
"Hon. Hoke Smith, 70S Peters build
ing, City,—Dear Sir: 1 have yours of
even date, and In reply beg to say that

It Is probable that If arrangements
are not perfected for (he Joint debate
that both candidate! will speak In
Rome Saturday.
The Smith committee has decided
on the grove at the foot of Myrtle Hill
cemetery for their candidate, and 2
o'clock ns the hour. If the Howell
committee determines to havs Mr.
Howell there, Joint debate or no Joint
debate, the opera house will probably
be selected for that meeting.

■Comforts of life for hla father and
mother, Wesley Brlnsfield, a young
Methodist local preacher whose very
name breathes an inborn spirit of
Methodism, was arraigned at the dis
trict conference of the Methodist
church at the Walker 8treet school for
olatlng the Sabbath day.
Bom* said that Brother Brlnsfield
was working on Sunday, that he might
make more money. Yes, he was work
ing on Sunday that he might hold his
position by which he Is enabled to help
support hla good father and mother,
Rev. and Mrs. Weslsy W. Brlnsfltld,
of Banks county, Georgia. Was this
man of God violating the Sabbath?
Thera was a difference af opinion
among the doctors of divinity.
"Drajv the line on Brlnsfield," said
many of the delegates Wednesday,
whlla others spoke In behalf of the
young man of blameless character.
"The Lord said we should remember
the Babbath day to keep It holy, and
we must draw the line somewhere,”
said one 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 hla dully task:
He was unable to absent himself front
his work that he might participate In
the deliberations of the body that Was
questioning his character.
Protests Agslnet Him.
Would those godly ministers draw the
line on Brlnsfield? For a time It seemed
that they would. Urgent speeches were
made by some who claimed that no
man of God would work on the Babbath
day; others protested In bthalf 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
we defer action on his llranse until hs
can come before title body and present
his eld* of Gila case.'' These words
from lion. K. W. Martin, ona of At
lanta's best known> lawyers, and a lay
delegate to the conferences, touched
many of hla colleagues, and they all
assented.
He Speaks for Himeelf. '
Wesley Brlnsfield waa to have
chance to speak for himeelf. An hour
was appointed end he wa* on hand. He
took but a few words to tell of his
church work of the past year. The
religious seal that wa* ennbllng Inn
to deny himself to be able to help oth
ere could not be mistaken. His high
motlvs was a sufficiency and hie unnn
Imoue vindication was no at '
picture of that mother and
voting their lives that they might up
lift tha poor and sin-ridden In a small
Gsorgla village, with no thought of
their own comfort, was before many
of thoee delegates who knew Wesley
Brlnsfield'e father.
Another picture was bsfore their
eyes, too. Wesley Urlntfield, young
and strong, with a spirit of youth and
good heal
ment, could be asen.at hla work In the
railroad office, tolling away 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 .reuse.
Was It surprising that this young
mlnlstsr was vindicated?
It wa* a bright, ninnly face, Ilium!
nated by a smile, that was noticed
most when Wesley Drlnsflold spoke.
The vole hod Just been Isken and he
was happy. The privilege of preaching
had not been denied him. llnw happy
5 ood mother and father would br
be road In his clear-cut counte
nance. . • , ...
Tall and slender, his face slightly
thtnntd by long hours In a railroad
office, neatly dressed, Brlnsfield chat
ted a few minutes with the reporter,
though eo modest that It was no easy
matter to get him to tell of hi* work,
hie ambitions and his happiness at be
ing assured his license to preach
“I Am Happy Now."
"1 was getting a little afraid whan
I heard that my llcene* would not be
renewed, end Jhought I had belter
come over and present my cae*. J am
happy now, and can return to my work
In an easy state of mind. I try to do
all the good l can and, though 1
have to work on Sunday a good deal,
I have to do It to hold my position,
would enter the regular ministry If I
did not have u> help my father and
mother. A* It la, I cannot afford to let
them do without nil the neceasltlee of
life. If I could get a pastorate that
would pay me 27*0 a year I would be
the happiest man you ever eaw, and I
would not hesitate to tsko It. But
must hurry back to my work—"
Wesley Ilrlnslleld lives at No. 201
Kennedy etreet. He hoe been In the
ministry five years and hopes soma'day
to have a regular paatorste charge. He
Is employed at the yard office of the
Weetern and Atlantic railroad, where
he works twslvs hours every day.
When opportunity presents Itself hs
presche* st several little missions snd
on Sundays always tries to arrange his
work so he can attend all the church
services, and It Is few that he mlsaes.
May n minister In the Methodist
church work on Sunday without violat
ing the Sabbath? The district Confer
ence nt the Walker Street church de
cided that With a purpose like that
evinced by Wesley Brlnsfleltl, the work
he does on the Sabbath la holy, and no
violation of the Lord's day.
BURGLAR ROAMS THROUGH HOUSE;
TWO LADIES BADLY FRIGHTENED;
' BULLETS CHASE THE INTRUDER
The appearance of a bold and daring
burglar, who Is supposed to have en
tered the front door by means of a
skeleton key, Wednesday night about
11 o'clock badly frightened Mr*. Lson-
ard Davis, of 576 South Pryor stteet,
wife of a well-known member of city
fire company No. 9, and her young *l<-
ter-ln-law, Mis* Irene Davis, and
caused a scene of considerable excite
ment.
In order to attract the attention of
neighbors and bring assistance, Mrs.
Davis fired a revolver three tlmse from
a second-story window, at which the
burglar bolted from Ihe house. A* he
ran through the bark yard a neighbor
fired at him with a Wlncheiter rill*,
but he bullet failed to laka effect.
Policemen Poole, who wa* on a trol
ley car en route to the police station,
wa* notified, and, together with Call
Officers Lindsay and Holcombe, mode
an Investigation, but failed to find any
trace of the marauder.'
Both Mrs. Davie.and her alater-ln-
law heard the burelsr aa ha roamed
through the house, hut neither of them
saw him.
They were up stairs at tha lime and
heard the burglar ascend Ihe stair*.
They then heard him descend to the
first floor. The two ladles were afraid
lo venture down stairs, but went Into
another room to call out of a window
for help. Before they did eo, however,
the burglar again went up atalra and
started through the hall. Mrs. Davis
then fired three times out of a win
dow, nt which the Intruder fled pell-
mell down the stair* and out of a back
door.
The shooting aroused the neighbor
hood, end It wee only a few moments
until a number of people had collected.
Mr. Davla was notified al No. 9 engine
station and qulrkl arrived on the scene.
Both of the ladlea were badly scared
by the thrilling experience.
