MERRY, MERRY ARE MEN
ON INSPECTION TRIP
Members of Water Committee, Su perintendent Davis, and About
Fifty Guests Travel to Settling Basins on Special Car,
and Have a Gay Time.
Furtive strains of a song beginning
"Come AH ye Koundera" Boated
through the cloaed doors of a bag
gage car being hauled out of the Main
street station Tuesday afternoon.
The listener, provided he cared to
listen, could easily distinguish U»e
high sweet clarion tenor notes of Mor
gan K. Mills as . he dwelt lovingly on
the last syllabic of the line. Then
too. there reverberated .-even above
the roar of the wheels, the baritone
of R. M. Hrander, otherwise known
as the general agent for the Kanawha
Dispatch routes.
As the train* pulled out of *he
yards one of the side doors opened
Just a bit, and a vast volume of
smoke—cigar smoke wafted out and
away. When the air had cleared, one
could see Charles Davis, of the city
water department gesto tilatlng with
his accustomed grace, as he held
earnest converse with the stalwart
form of City Attorney Pollard.
Who is that bunch?" asked one
section hand of another as the train
rolled past.
"Hunch of guys that picked Phlllle
to beat the Cubs and are celebratin'
1 reckon,” replied the other.
Hut "the bunch" was nothing of
the sort. It was an aggregation of
men who frequently are perfectly re
spectable. in short it was the mem
bers of the water committee, together
with about fifty guests, most of whom
arc city officials.
The party was on Its way to the
new settling basins to make the an
nual inspection.
When the train started everybody
was sitting quietly In the green velvet
seats of one of the two special oars
donated for the occasion by the Ches
apeake and Ohio Railroad. Exactly
one and one-half minutes after the
start, however, Morgan Mills, chair
man of the Committee on Water, was
seen whispering In the left ear of
Superintendent Davis. These two were
hosts of the occasion.
Attorney Samuel Kelley tiptoed up
and listened a moment. Messrs. Mills
and Davis started for "the baggage
car ahead.” Mr. Kelley followed. So
mao aia everybody eise.
In the baggage car were four long
tables loaded with "eats and drinks."
Committeemen and guests proceeded
to get busy The average spectator,
who would have surmised that no one
in the party had been near food for
a month previous.
In due course of time the train
stopped and the committee members
piled off the car and looked things
[ over. They found the basins were
i still there and doing business, so af
: ter about twenty minutes they re-en
I tered the car and were whirled to the
I pumphouses. Here they got out again,
; looked about again and then got on
i board again.
After this the committee held a
i brief meeting, in which the members
'approved the work of Director Eh
kid, and passed resolutions of thanks
i to Messrs. Mills and Davis, and to
! the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad.
Finally the party earn© home. Thers
; was only one incident worthy of men*
* tion on the return trip Major Wer
ner. chief of police, stood in the aisle
of the car and announced that he in
tended to sing "Die Wacht Am
Rhine." He was suppressed.

SPIRITUALITY FLEES
WHEN SUMMONS ARRIVE
Certain Members of Fifth Bapti st Church, Colored, Object to Pay
ing Attorney to Defend Their Pastor in Police Court
Trial. * V
The trustees of the Fifth Baptist
ihurch. colored, were in session. One j
■ould not but notice the atmosphere
if peaceful quiet, broken only by the
lubdued voices of those present,
everything was moving along smooth
y. as smoothly as coulfl be. wh«n
>eputy Sheriff Johnson entered.
Immediately thereafter the quiet
ras gone. There was chaos. The
rustees became excited, dropped their
oft modulations and shouted The
nesting was adjourned. All this be
aus* Sheriff Johnson served live of
he church directors with summonses
o appear In a suit filed against them
n the Chancery Court to restrain
hetn from paying an Attorney to de
end their pastor In a oaae pending
gainst him in the police court.
The pastor is W. H. Dobbins, hud
or several months hlg tending of his
lock has been a bon* of contention
ivor which the members of that flock
lividsd have been wrangling. Thorn
are those who think Dobbins is the
goods. Others are of the opinion
that his talents would be more appre
ciated elsewhere than in their church.
Among these latter is Sallio White,
whose son recently so far forgot the
minister's cloth ns to tell Dobbins
that he (White) had a str.Tng incli
nation to punch his head. This state
ment grieved Dobbins. Also, it made
him angry, and so he swore out a
warrant for- White’s arrest. This
caused Sallla to express her opinion
of Dobbins. She told everybody that
would listen Just what she thought,
and one of her auditors, being a sup
porter of Dobbins, repeated Sallle’s
words to him.
Following the next meeting of the
congregation, according to Sally. Dob
bins asked her If she had e&ld what
■he had said. She said she' had said
it Dobbins then invited her. she says,
to a secluded spot, where he might
swat her a few cracks about the face
| without being subjected to the rude
gaze of the public. She declined, and
swore out a warrant for ,hls arrest.
! oven as he had dona in the case of
; her son.
Dobbins engaged Attorney Georgs
E. Wise to defend him and told Mr.
Wise to "send the MU to the church."
Frank Davis, a member of the con
gregation. heard of this and decided
that he didn't care about helping to
pay the fee. Accordingly he tiled Suit
and secured ar. injunction preventing
the use of any of the funds of the
church in Dobbins' behalf.
It was in serving notice of this
' Injunction and summons to appear
in court that Deputy Sheriff Johnson
i broke up the meeting Tuesday night.
