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.

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. MRS. DONALD JfcLEAX. I’hoto by J. N. Kl'IINS.

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. Oxfords In Women’s and Misses’ White Shoes we’ve every popular style known to tho shoe trade.
