The Singular Infatuation of Two Lake
Young Ladies'.

The Singular Infatuation of Two Lake
Young Ladies.
CHIcAGO, May IA sensation comes
from the Town of Lake in the shape of a
series of cladestine meetings, extending
over a lengthy period of time, between two
young ladies named Mauds< Bennett and
Clara Hope, the daughters of Mrs. John
Hope, on the one side, and two men giving
the names of DR.. Greene and Mr.. Cornell,
on the other. In spite of the mothers
efforts to prevent the strange companion
ship the girls continued, according to Mrs
Hope, to meet the men until finally it was
arranged between the four that Maude was
to become the bride of Mr.. Cornell in short
time, and that Clara was to do the same by
the doctor Mrs. Hope not fancying this
method of cOurtship and not knowing
either of the men, employed shadow
to watch them, and the discovery was made
that the man who passed as Mr.. Cornell
was commission man who is living with
wife, and that "Dr Greene" while being
doctor indeed, was known among a large
circle of friends by another name, has a
wife living, and has always been considered
a praiseworthy man. Mrs. Hope called
upon the wife of the commission merchant
and explained the situation, and the two
endeavored to end the haison, but with no
favorable result. When it became known
that the plot had reached the ears of others
than those most directly interested, efforts
were made to stop the spread of the intelli-
geuce but this, too, although a revolver
was in one instance used as an argument in
the affirmative, was useless. 1t is said that
Clara has been missing for some time, and
foul play is limited at.

did not bring any revolvsrs with them.
"Say. Mister" he continued. eonidentially.

votions were led BY Rev. J. K. Chaffee, Of

Washington, Cincinnati, Chicago, St.
Louis, San Francisco. Minneapolis,
Atlanta or Chattanooga, and New Orleans
The debate on the question of licensing
women to preach was resumed. The re-
port of the Itineracy Committee, saying it
was inexpedieut to take any action on the
subject of licensing women to preach, was
adopted. DIR. Buckley, submitted another
report from the Committee on ltinerancy
declaring, in regard to the doctrine of per-
feet sanctifcation that they did not deem it
expedient to pronounce specifically for that
or any other fundamental doctrine of the
the church Adopted. The report of the

the report.
Drs. Leona'd and Hunt did not think
Denmark was strong enough to be created

DIR. Vernon, Chairman of the committee,
advocated the report, and DIR. Buckley
made strong speech against erecting
these small constituencies into conferences
Bishop Foster was called upon and stated
that he thought it would be a good thing to
make Denmark conference. The Bishop
was there last fall, and found everything
satisfactory
The debate continued languidly until DR..
Hatfield moved to amend by allowing Den
mark to be erected into a conference when
there are twenty-five ministers in full con-

there.
