asked IL McDevitt did notsay on the Sunday
after the arrest that IL he had known Halleck

he would be put on the stand. Witness would
not have persuaded Halleck to make q state
ment had not she put full reliance in McD. IS
promises that n. should be put on the stand.
Med. said to H8lleck before the statement
was made that H. should go scot free. He
will not be used by me-" but he said cit will
not be used against you" These statements
were communicated to Halleck, and she
begged him with tears to make the confess
sion, for Med was friend OF theirs and
would stand up for him.

THE REV. DR.. STORRs, of the Church of
the Pilgrims, in Brooklyn, last evening
made statement of the reasons for with
drawing from the presidency of the Amer
lean Congregational Union, and as mem
Der OF the board of directors. He also gave
his opinion of the advisory council. He
characterized that body as one of no great
weight. There were many friends of Ply
mouth church in the council, which threw
some light on the strange results arrived at.
He said 1t had heaped dirt on the great doc.
trines of the Lord, and spread protecting
wings over the pastor OF Plymouth church.
According to the doctrines OF the Catholic
church the character of the priest made no
difference, but no Protestant would agree to
this.

"MANY READERS" asks US to explain the
meaning of the word '.inLern," used as a
verb. So far as we know, it first came into
use in English and American literature dur
Ing the Franco German war. French troops
escaping int Belgium and Switzerland were
interned by the authorities of these countries.
The English word which expresses the same
meaning most nearly is inlp0,uad. A person
