Baptists Seaside Assembly To Open -Next Wednesday Evening i Mm Ur bArll5lo HXPECTEDJO ATTEND Recent Increase in Railroad Fares Will Not Interfere Very Seriously DR. HURT IS CONFIDENT -yes, sir; they are coming," said r. John Jeter Hurt, on the street yesterday, when asked about the pros pects cf the Baptist Seaside Assembly, which is scheduled to poen its fourth annual session in the Harbor Island auditorium next Thursday night. He was speaking with confidence, and then went on to say: "I was not so sure about it for a long time, but now I know they are coming. The rail road rates are up a little, and the j Monday evening, telling of the cap price of board has kept up with the; . d tl f Edwin Booth, whc 3Vi -; ?" ' 3 vr ITi. DR. R. B.

He said the people of Newbern had bought 25 sea son tickets in advance, and they planned to come in great numbers. The little town of Wallace had said they would take 25 tickets. One preacher wrote that he would come than was occasioned by the Civil War, and was chased. His capture was ef fected in the front yard of the home of Dr. Garrett's father, and he was an eyewitness to what transpired. He is down on the program for an ad dress on a chapter of unwritten his tory and he has a message that not 1 T- .

A pastor of one of the Greensboro churches has been instructed to pack his grips and come to the assembly at their expense, and then to stay three weeks longer at their expense. Rev. W. Marshall Craig, of Kinston, said thVy would be here in goodly numbers. Hon. John A. Oates, of Fayetteville, wrote for 15 season tickets and expects to head a large delegation. Carey J. Hunter, one of the leading business men of Raleigh, went around among the lead ing Baptists of his church and sold 25 tickets. J. M. Broughton, of the Tabernacle church, same city, said he would do likewise. Because cf these evidences of a lively interest in the assembly, those in charge believe the attendance will be fully up to the record of last year, and they would not be surprised to see it go still higher. Arrangements have been made for taking care of all the people who may wish to come. There are the two big hotels, any number of excellent boarding houses, and the assembly has made arrange ments for two rooming houses, where persons who desire may secure lodg ing only and at the low price of 50 cents epr day. Still other parties will probably wish to camp out, and facili ties will be presented to such as may wish to rough it in this way. The sessions will open next Thurs day night with an address by Dr. R. F. Y. Pierce, of New Ynrir tv ' tv. addition to being a minister of dis-j fnguished ability, he is also an artist! cf unusual merit, and always illus-i trates nis sermons with the multi-colored crayons which are kept close at hand. The sessions will run right along through the following Thurs day, closing at noon with a great pa triotic address. The assembly takes the nature of a religious school in the morning hours, and courses in Bible study, missions, Sunday school work and woman's missionary work are all presented by experts of the first rank. The afternoons are left open for recreation, and the delegates have come to think of these long af ternoons as among the most delight ful features of the annual meetings Each nierht a lppt qua nature is given by some distin guished speaker. These lectures are preceded by a half hour of music. E Ii. Wolslagel, of Atlanta," had charge of the music last summer and so en thusiastic were the people about his talents that the assembly closed an engagement with him then for this season. He will assemble and direct the choir, and will command some of .the best talent in the state. Mrs. Wolslagel. who taught several years In Meredith college, will accompany him and play the piano. " -The program Is full of attractive features and those who came are sure to 'have a rich treat. want to hear, but one that will inter est everyone. Dr. Garrett has had many attractive offers made him to go on he Chautauqua platform and tell his story, but the argument has never yet been suffie'ently strong to influence him to do this. t r E. L. WOLSAGEL. Mr. .Wolslagel will direct the singing at the assembly this year and this alone assures the success of this fea ture of a program that carries many features. All remember Mr. Wolsla gel, who was here last year, and all are delighted that he is to return. His work went a long ways toward assur ing, the success of last year's assembly that he will be welcomed back.

John Jeter Hurt, D. D., pastor of the First Baptist church, and president of the assembly, is of unusual interest tnrouguout the state, particularly to all Baptists.
