DR. WOODROW WINS.
Personal Mention.
The Presbytery of Augusta met in
Waynesboro Wednesday night. A large
number were in attendance. Rev. Mr. Doak,
the pastor of the Eatonton church, was
elected Moderator. After the appointment
of the usual committees and the general
routine of business was gone through with,
the ease ot Dr Woodrow was brought be
fore the Presbytery. A committee of live
were appointed to consider it. The com
mittee replied making direct charges
against Dr. Woodrow for error in his teach
ings, and that his interpretation of the
Scripture was not in accordance with the
standards of the Presbyterian church, and
that the Presbytery institute proceedings
against him. This report was concurred
in by only three of the committee, tAvo
dissenting. The Presbytery declined to
endorse the report by a vote of eight to
sewn, and a substitute was offered and
carried by the same vote, which in sub
stance is: While we do not endorse the
teaching of Dr. Woodrow on the subject ot
evolution, we see no cause for judicial pro
cess.
Wherepon Dr. Adams immediately no
tified the Presbytery that he would table
the charges against Dr. Woodrow and be
come the prosecutor.
These proceedings occupied the Presby
tery until Friday night.
On Saturday morning Dr. Adams prefer
red charges against Dr. Woodrow for
error in his teachings and the Presbytery
cited him to appear at his trial at the next
meeting of the Presbs’tery, which will take
placeat Bethany Church inTaliaferro coun
ty, the last week in August.
It is highly probable that the whole mat
ter will be brought before the General As
sembly, which convenes here on the 20th
of May, as the Savannah presbytery has
overtured the Assembly to take cogni
zance of the matter, and a speedy termina
tion may be looked for.
Dr. Woodrow and Col. R. L. Hunter
were elected commissioners to the General
Assembly.

THE GOVERNOR'S TRIP.
A few Facts about the Asylum from
Governor McDaniel.
Governor McDaniel was interview
ed yesterday by a Capitol reporter in
regard to his recent trip to Milledge
ville. He said the asylum was in a
splendid condition and that he thought
Georgia' now possessed one of the
best and most attentively kept
asylums in the South. That the man
agement was as near perfect as possi
ble for it to become under the present
appropriation from the State.
A rather singular thing was brought
out in the City Court in Macon, Tues
day. During*the March term of the
court the case of the State vs. Strip
ling, for selling Avhisky to a minor, was
taken up. The defendant demanded
a jury trial. Among the jurors drawn
A\ r as W. C. Jones, and he desired to
have W. B. Jobson serve as a substi
tute. While Clerk Nisbet was busy
with the lists, Jobson, who was un
known to the Clerk, said he AA'ould
serve for Jones. The Clerk asked
Judge Harris if such was the agreea-
ment, and the Judge answered no.
Jobson, however, misunderstood af
fairs, and when Jones' name was call
ed ansAvered to it. The case went to
trial and Stripling was convicted and
fined §800 and costs. Several other
cases were tried, and each time Job-
son answered to the name of Jones.
He was of the impression that as he
was a substitute for Jones, he should
answer to Jones’ name. In none of
the cases but that of Stripling was
there any convictions. A few days
after the trial it was 'discovered that
Jones was not on the jury, and a mo
tion was made for a new trial on the
above ground. The motion was heard
Tuesday and Judge Harris reserved
his decision.

uneasiness of the stomach, etc. A
