DR. ROBINS VINDICATED.
His Character Passed Almost U
nanimously at the Conference.
Dalton, Nov. 28 —The Robins
matter came up in conference this
morning. His character passed
after a just and beautiful tribute
to his worth and manfulness. As
to his book the conference dis
claimed it as being a Methodist
utterance and reaffirmed adhesion
to the doctrines on depravity and
regeneration hitherto held by the
church.
The following resolutions were
passed with only about half a doz
en dissenting voices:
‘ Whereas, the Rev. J. B. Robins,
D. D., a member of this conference,
has published a book entitled “The
Family a Necessity of Civilization,”
in which he stated that the doc
trine of total degravity which has
been understood to mean the teach
ing of our seventh article, is un
worthy of belief, and has further
said that children are >orn pure
and needed no new nature, save
that which comes to a sinless be
ing, and that Jesus Christ needed
regeneration as am other child
needed it, and that He was regen
erated. saying there was but one
way for Him to get in the kingdom
of God, and that was to be born
into it; and,
“Whereas. Dr. Robins has declar
ed in the public prints that in
neither of these utterances did h
design to attack any of our arti
cles; therefore, as his character
for truthfulness and sincerity is
unimpeached : therefore be it
"Resolved. That his character
do now pass, but as this action,
may be misunderst* >d.
Resolved by this conference
’ That it heartily reaffirms its belief
in the seventh article of our relig
ion and repudiates all teaching of
i childhood purity in conflict with
it; that it does not believe in any
sense that our Lord Jesus Christ
I needed regeneration: that it be
lieves He was conceived by the
Holy Ghost, was born immaculate
and lived without sin to His ascen-
I sion.”
This resolution was signed by
George G. Smith, Walker Lewis,
W. P. Lovejoy and W. F. Cook.
This resolution settled the case to
the satisfaction of nearly every
member of the conference.
Dr. Robins bore himself through
this ordeal with manliness and
! grace.

The Department Denies That
There is Any Significance.
Washington, Nov. 24—At the

there is nothing significant or new

calls!attention to the antiquated
condition of the coast defense of
Ft. Marion and St. Augustine, and
on Florida Keys, says that large
sums con'd be expended on them
advantageously, and adds that
“Under authority given by Con

intended to advertise at an early
date for proposals for constructing
emplacements for four ten inch

JUDE DEAD.
Perry Phipps’ Famous Dog Is
Killed at Last.
The famous bloodhound, Jude,
the property of Policeman Perry
Phipps, of Chattanooga, was killed
one night last week by a negro des
perado, Monroe Ivey, who has been
terrorizing the people of Rossville
for some weeks.
Last Wednesday night Ivey
made an attempt to murder Depu
ty Sheriff Dobbs. A posse of men
started in pursuit, and the dog
Judb was put on the trail. The
negro made his escape, and his
pursuers finally went back to Chat
tanooga thinking the dog was with
them.
Later it was learned that she
had followed Ivey to his home near
Rossville where he killed the dog
by beating her in the head with a
club/
The dog was the most famous
one in all this section of country
and had rendered the officers of
Chattanooga most valuable service
in running down a number of no
torious criminals.

A Ghastly Idea.
A traveling crematory will here
after accompany every Gorman
regiment in time of war. It con
; sists of a huge kind of baking oven,
mounted on four wheels It is said
that the soldiers resent the innova
tion. on the ground that the ma
chine is a too vivid reminder of
the horrors of war.
The inventor claims that the
machine will dispose of the killed
in a few hours, but it is not im
probable that some of the wounded
might be cremated by mistake.
The invention doe. not find favor
elsewhere, and it is to be hoped
that such a gruesome object will
..ot become general.

Talking about hunting here is a
capture made by a man in Murray
county, and it must be so for the
Spring Place Jimplecute says so,
The story from the exchange is as
follows:
“A white coon was recently
caught by Pat Hegerty, near Spring
Place, in Murray county It had
two rows of upper and lower teeth,
nine rings around its tail —three
brown, three white, two yellow and
one black—also had a knob or
button on the end of its tail;
forked or double claws, weight '27
pounds, and is supposed to be
about 40 years old. His counship
gave Mr. Hegerty quite a hard
fight before being captured and
lacerated his arms terribly, mak
ing five ugly wounds—three on his
right arm and two on his left.
This is said to be the first white
coon ever seen in that section, and
is pronounced by scientists to be a
freak. Mr. Hegerty has his coon
housed safely in a wire cage, and
is thinking seriously of presenting
it to the Smithsonian Institute at
Washington, D. C., as one of the
curiosities of Murray county, Ga.,
where coons are numerous.”
All persons are hereby warned not
to hunt or otherwise trespass gi our
enclosed lands, under penalty of the
law. Parties who disregard this no
tice do so at then own risk.
