WEST SIDE EVENTS.
ProbtbOity Tkat Rev. W. S. Jones Will
oa Sunday Announce Hit Resi(na
lion, to Take Effect at Oace.
In all probability. Rev. W. B. Jones
will, before the month is over, resign
the patitorate of the First WelHh Bap
list church. Mr. Jones has notified sev
eral of the deacons of his church of his
intention to leave the church and veri
lled report says that the resignation
will be formally tendered next Sunday
nlRht after the regular service. The an
nouncement was made In the newspapers
of this week's issue that Mr. Jones had
received a call from the Carmathan
ilaptist church at South Wales. When
this had gotten abroad it seemed clear
to some people that Mr. Jones' resigna
tion from the South Main avenue
church would only be a question of a
short time.
It was thought that Mr. Jones would
announce his resignation at last night's
meeting of the church, but it was not
done. Sunday night will almost cer
tainly see the withdrawal unless, in the
meantime, Mr. Jones changes his pres
ent decision. The reverend gentleman
Is very popular with his congregation.
An effort will doubtless be made to
have him remain. While on his recent
tour of Wales Mr. Jones preached at
the Carmathan church.
