A VERY DISAS-
TERS
FIRE
P m
Just as the family were finish
ing their dinner the dreaded
alarm of fire was heard, which
was resounded frorj house to
house and from one person to an-
other untill many of the sym
pathetic people of "otherwise
quiet" Atlanta, were rushing to
try to save something of the
home of Frank Bivins.
The home, with a, great quan-
tity of its contents, was a total
loss.
We greatly sympathise with
Mr. Bivins and family in the
loss of their palatial home. We
seldom see ihe heroicism and
careful calculating presence ol
mind used in such a time as this
as was exercised by Mrs. Bivins,
when strong men had deserted
the burning house she, saved
much of her affects by hurling
them out of the windows and
doors.
We hope to see them soon
settled in another home among
us.
THE PROHIBITION
PARTY NOT A TEM-
PERANCE SOCIETY
It does not deal prim arily, if
at all, with a man's habits, but
with his vote. It does not
stand for the foolishness of talk-
ing up schemes for dealing with
the phenomena of drunkenness.
It stands flat footed and square-
ly for the destruction of the tra-
ffic that makefs drunkenness
possible with its hellish brood of
crimes. it believe that history
and experience and observation
have all demonstrated the fact
that the logic1, the philosophy,
the common sense of the whole
liquor problem is summed up in
one sentence, remove the cause
and the effects will cease.—Ex.

As announced in last week's
paper, the women kept Friday
as a day of fasting and prayer,
for our state, our voters and for
our officers.
We are commanded in Gods
word to "pray for those who are
in authority," and we feel that
we have neglecten that.
They are but men, and li&dle
to make mistakes and do wrong
like the rest of us, without the
Lord to keep and support them,
so we should help and support
them by our prayers.
We had an all-day prayer
meeting Friday, and a blessed
good day. We met togetner as
a band of dearly loved sisters,
Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian
and etc. all one in Christ Jesus,
and the Blessed Spirit was with
us and that to own ana to bless.
We also prayed for Liquor
dealers and saloon keepers,
those that had had their bus-
iness taken from them, that
they might have a better busi-
ness and might turn to the Lord
and live before it is to late. We
sympathise with them and
earnestly desire their salvation.
Two of our pastors met with
us and gave us some good talks.
They said; "however the elect-
ion might be, it would work
out for our good, and we would
get the desire of our hearts,
and we had the witness of
the blessed Spirit that it was
time; and we determined to be
like "the importunate widow"
never to let go untill He ex-
ecuteth judgment for the opress-
ed, untill He looseth the prison-
