The Baptist Church in Wayne, Des-

LEWISTON, May H. At about two o'clock
this morning. fire was discovered in the Bap-
tist church. in Wayne. and having then made
such progress that it was impossible to save
it, the edifce was entirely destroyed. The
church furniture was nearlysall saved, and
the most of the pews were removed in dam
aged condition. The origin of the fire is un-
known. When discovered it was in the an
gle. at the junction of the church and vestry,
wholly on the exterior surface, and extended
in narrow belt of fire from the ground to
the ridge pole of the vestry. The time was
unusually favorable for confning the flames
to the church, as there was not breath of
wind, otherwise the loss must have been
great The entire population responded
promptly to the alarm, and labored heroically
and successfully to save the other buildings.
No insurance. This church was a landmark
of the town, and every citizen feels that the
loss of it is not only public calamity, but n
personal misfortune. 1t was erected in 1922,
principally through the efforts of Mr. Allen
Wing one of the first settlers of the town,
and was for many years owned by the Bap-
fists aud Universalists. twas remodelled in
1854. when its possession passed wholly into
the hands of the Baptists. Rev. A. Snyder

Gently passed by the Legislature of

SECTION l. All laws which inn
pose or recognize civil disabilities
upon . wife which are not imposed
or recognized rs existing as to the
husband, are hereby abolished;
provided, that this shall not confer
the right to vote or hold office upon

provided by law; and for any un-
lust usurpation Of her natural oil
property rights she shall have the
same right to appeal, In her own
individual name, to the courts ol

teotion as the husband has.

Archbishop williams and the Pub
lilo Schools.

The other day the news was tele-
Rraphed all over the country that
Archbishop Williams, of Boston,
had epjoined his priests to refuse
the sacraments to all Roman Cath
ole parents who should persist in
sending their children to the pub
lie school in preference to the
Church school. Now priest who
says he was present and heard the
Archbishop's words to his clergy,
alleges that they have been mis-
represented. According to this
priest the Archbishop distinctly
said that no parish clergyman
should presume on his own respon-
sibility to refuse the sacraments to
parishioners, or denounce them
from the altar, for sending their
children to the public schools; that
In all such cases the matter
must be referred to him for his de-
cIsion that while, other things
being equal, a Roman Catholic
should send his children to the
school where they will receive reli-
gious as we'll as secular education,
no Roman Catholic parent was
obliged to take his child out of q
well taught public school to send II
to an ill-taught parish school. ii
their religion were attacked In the
public schools, that would be a diff
ferent matter; but be had no
knowledge of the existence OF any
such state of things.

ops remarks is authentic, how did
the first incorrect reports come to
be sent out to the country ?-N. T.
