The First Baptist Bast Sunday.
Services were held at the First Bap
tist church last Sunday as usual. The
Sabbath school was ’opened at 10:45
a. m. by Superintendent L. S. Flemis
ter, with a fair attendance of pupils
and teachers.
Preaching at 11 a. m. and at 7 p. m.
by the pastor, Rev. Wm. Shelton, jr.
The sermons were good and the whole
services, including singing by the
choir, were enjoyable and edifying.
The sermon in the forenoon, was
from the text, “For we know that we
have passed from death unto, life, be
cause we love the brethren,” I. John iii,
14—Life and death, spritual life and
spiritual death, the life and death of
the soul, and the passing from death
unto life—how this great change is
made, and how we may know it has
been made, were topics presented and*
well discussed
The Wednesday night prayer meet
ing and business meeting of the
church was pretty well attended and
was quite interesting. The topics for
consideration and discussion in the
prayer-meeting was the subject of re
generation. Upon this doctrine sev
eral intsructive talks were made and
were participated in by both male and
female members. In the business
meeting which followed the prayer
meeting the tne following resolution
was read and, with little discussion
was unanimously adopted by the con
ference.
“Resolved that in the sense of the
church, it is inconsistent with the
spirit of Christianity, with the piety
and good church membership, to hold,
encourage or indulge in dance parties,
qr card-playing: end that members of
this church so doing, are subject to
the censuie and discipline of the
church.”
Attend the meeting Saturday evening.

At about 3 o’clock in the morning, last
Saturday, the main line of the East Ten

breaking down, which necessitated the
use of the side track east of the main
line. About an hour later a long and
heavy freight train was passing when
three cars about the middle of the train
jumped the track, and after runningsome
distance broke a rail, two of the cars
turning over just above Farrar’s office,
and another hung just over the shed of
the office, while a fourth car just ahead
of the other three scattered sills to, Pat
rick Harrison’s. The only damage done
outside of that to the cars was the
smashing of Captain Haggard’s tool box
and knocking down the tresspass notice,
while the water plug had a close call and
J. K. Farrar and Henry Howell were
very much frightened by the smash.

Tne Wonderful Superiority of the
Dalton Keeley Institute.
IS STRICTLY PRIVATE
And FurniNhea Hoard and Lodging—
A Healthy and Fleanant Plaee
to Live—Read About It.
The Keeley Institute, Dalton, Ga.,
has many advantages over any oth
er institute in the South. The lo
cation of Dalton, in the mountains of
North Georgia, makes it a healthy and
pleasant place to visit at any season of
the year. In addition to this. Dalton
is a “dry town,” and while it is true
that this feature does not make any
difference with the patient while under
the Keeley treatment, it will undoubt
edly have some weight with many of
these poor unfortunate persons seek
ing relief from tne whiskey habit, and
be a strong drawing card for the Dal
ton Institute. Another facility offered
by the Dalton Institute is, that all
patients who desire it can be furnished
with board and room in the Institute
building, and that too at very rea
sonable rates. To lady patients, or
persons desiring absolute retirement
from the outside world, the Dalton
Institute certainly does offer special
advantages. The hotel and boarding
house accommodations at Dalton are
first-class, and patients not wishing to
stay at the Institute, can get any kind
of accommodations they may want.
The Institute is located in the most
pleasant pArt of the city, only four
blocks from the depot, convenient to
all the churches and just across the
street from a beautiful park. The In
stitute building is large ap,d commodi
ous, and has been fitted up especially
for the business, with all modern con
veniences. It has bath-rooms, with
hot and .cold water, wide halls
large, well ventilated rooms, and broad
piazzas; in fact, all the necessary
equipments to obtain tbp best results
possible. The grounds are Dirge and
just so situated as to furnish either
shade or sunshine at a,ny time during
the day.
The Dalton Institute is being thor
oughly renovated and refurnished.and
will be again open for patients on Feb
ruary 15th.
All correspondence with the man
agement ol this institution is
strictly confidential.
