WRECKERS TEAR DOWN
ANCIENT TRINITY SPIRE
The high, slate-covered steeple which
| for -11 years has stood as a silent guard,
| towering nearly 200 feet above the side
walk, over old Trinity Methodist
church, corner Trinity avenue and
| Whitehall street, crumbled into the
dust today.
Wreckers engaged In tearing down
the old church, to make way for a
modern business building, this morning
attacked the old steeple. A section
about 30 feet long wa. sawed off, and a
big automobile truck hitched to a long
cable rope quickly- demolished the old
landmark. All the steeple, and all of
| the building over which it stood watch,
I will be gone in another day or two.
I Renjoving the steeple was a difficult
| task, but the modern auto truck, un
known in 1871. when the steeple was
I constructed, solved the problem. Until
I workmen climbed the high spire with
I saw and hatchet with which to tear it
| down its interior had not been visited
Iby human beings since the last nail
i was driven in its construction in the
fall of 1871.
Rut while man had contented himself
during these long years nt gazing to its
top from vantage points for blocks
around, birds and insects had built
I (heir homes and increased their tribes
within it. For when the auto truck had
done its work today and the sun's rays
had penetrated the long da k cham
bers many odd homes of the feathered
folk were discovered.
Pigeon and sparrow nests galore, an
old honey bee's comb and any number
lof wasp nests were found. The same
slate placed on the steeple by hands
that have since ceased to work had
remained undisturbed. It was in good
condition when removed, and the titn-

Somehow there exists a vest amount of

It' we were afflicted with Tuberculosis,
we should do precisely what we ask oth

promptly and faithfully. The reason we
should do this and warrant we have for
asking all Consumptives to take it. Is
that we have the reports of many recov

"Gentlemen: For two years 1 was af
flicted with hemorrhages of the lungs, tile
number totaled nearly one hundred. Our
family physician advised another climate,
as to remain would probably be fatal.
However. I remained, and in February of
1902, 1 was taken with a severe attack of
pneumonia. When 1 recovered sufficient
ly to walk about the house I was left with
a frightful hacking cough, which no medi
cine I had taken could alleviate. It was
at this time. March, 1902, that I learned
of and started taking Eckman's Altera
tive. in a short time my cough was gone
and I was pronounced well. Since that
time I have bad two slight attacks of
pneumonia and 1 have resorted to no
oilier medicine to effect n recovery.
"I am ci present In excellent health and
feel that as long as I can obtain Eck
man Alterative I have no tea* of Con
sumption. I can not speak too highly for
the good it has done."

FITE OF BRIGADE
POST PLAN HELD
BYCONGBESS
Atlanta Must Stir Georgia Rep
resentatives to Seek Appro
priation. Says Wood.
If Atlanta wants a brigade post, all
the city has to do, according to Major
General Leonard Wood, chief of staff of
the United States army, is to stir up
the Georgia congressmen that congress
)pay be persuaded to make sufficient
appropriation.
"So far as the policy of the war de
partment is concerned,” declared Gen
eral Wood at a banquet given. in his
honor by the Chamber of Commerce
lust night at the Capital City club, “the
idea is to build a brigade post at Fort
McPherson. The purpose is to have
Atlanta for an infantry brigade and
Chattanooga for a cavalry brigade. But
this will require considerable money. In
carrying out the plans, you must expect
to encounter much opposition, selfish
In character, but still quite natural in
the prospective abolition of certain in
terior posts.”
Wiinier L. Moore, president of the
Chamber of Commerce, presided as
toastmaster ahd introduced Governor
Joseph M. Brown, Governor-elect John
M. Slaton, General A. J. V est and Clark
Howell in turn, and Mr. Howell intro
duced General Wood.
General Wood Talks on War.
“Preparedness” and “unprepared
ness” for war were taken up by Gen
eral Wood, and some of his assertions
were h. revelation to the assemblage.
“If we hold the Panama canal inse
curely,” he declared, “it is a great
source of weakness, and the converse
is true. We have never in all our
history faced a first-class nation pfe
pared for war. Tn the Revolution we
made a creditable showing,, but the.
French saved us. We must be prepared
at all times to repel invading forces.
We wouldn't expect undeveloped goid
•fields in Alaska to be of service m Wall
go out untrained and tackle tae proto
type of John L. Sullivan, you would
hesitate.
“We are truly a warlike people. We
can whip anybody, but we are not a
.military people, and there is a vast dif
ference. We are so short of ammuni
tion and arms that we couldn’t right
now put a real fighting force m the
field. There is a lot of talk about arbi
tration and peace, but we must have
the means to fight.
"We need 450,000 additional men and
16,000 officers to establish a proper
mobile army. Where are we to get
them” The army hopes to recruit them
from the reserve which has been estab
lished. We have only to consider a few
cold facts to realize where we stand tn
regard to a fighting force. Last yeat
the country spent more for automobile
tires than was spent on the navy, and
chauffeurs cost more than the army.
Hopes Atlanta Gets Post.
“I believe we shall not be forced out
of the Philippines, but shall leave them
at our pleasure. However, we. must he
prepared for war if we would protect
ourselves, and the foundation of bri
gade posts will do much in that direc
tion. I have always had a warm spot in
my heart for Atlanta, and I sincerely
hope Atlanta will get a post at the ear
liest possible time.”
