A STOLEN CHURCH.
How a Dispute Was Settled and How the
Edlfice is Now Going to Ruin.

From NE Neao York MAI.
In the early part of last century Wick
ford and McSparren, two small towns
near Newport, r. L., engaged in quarrel
over an Episcopal church building, which
was among the first edifces of the kind
erected in New England. The church
was at McSparren, which had been dis
tanced in size and Importance by Wick
ford, and the latter determined, after many
stormy scenes in the yestry, upon a spe-
cies of coup detat.
The road from where the church was
located to Wexford was every rod OF it
down hill, and, while it might prove a
comparatively easy matter To get the house
down there, it would prove literally an
uphill undertaking to get IL back again.
Accordingly, one evening the Wexford
ties mustered their forces, collected all
the OK teams for miles around and went
up there. The house was quickly placed
upon wheels. and, while the residents Of
McSpaFren Hill were slumbering quietly
in their beds their Westinghouse was on
its way to Wexford. Great was their
establishment when they looked towards
their cherished house In the morning to
lind naught but the foundation walls re-
naming where the house had stood at
sunset the night before. There was some
very vigorous language used, which was
received by the Wickfordltes with all the
cOmplacency Of men who were aware OF
the fact of possession being nine points of
the law, and Of its being literally an up
bill job 10 get the house back again where
it started from. This was IN the year
1900. and the house has remained on It's
present site ever since.
Some ten or twelve years ago the cor
poratiOn built neat church edifce on
the nam street OF the village, with a tower
and a clock, and the old church has not
been used since. IL has not, however,
ceased to be an object OF public interest.
1t is visited every year by hundreds Of
people from different parts Of the country,
many Of whom have inscribed their names
in pencil on its walls. Tue house is fast
succumbing 10 the ravages Of time. A
gale of wind in 1859 denuded IL Ofits
tower. Every year its power Of resist
ance is becoming less, and unless some
thing is done before long In the way Of re-
pairs this interesting relic will not be- in
condition 10 enter.

Yet there are curiosities less easily ex-
planned, ana where the philosophical
enthusiasm of Michelet would have been
utterly at loss. Take, for instance, that
which so strangely fascinates everybody
when some demi-mondaine turns into
hard cash her jewels and her furniture,
her hotel and her picture gallery, and
which | can only qualify as unhealthy.
Great ladies and bOurgeOises, honest wo-
men both, visiting the palaces OF these
creatures seem to be like Ewes nieces
playing with bits of the half-eaten apple
or tying the serpent tempter around their
thoats simply to judge how he would look
as necklace.
A fortnight ago it was Mile. Lucio
kern's orchard, this week the news
papers have sung the praises OF MISS
Alice Howard, of her Lancrets and her
Meissoniers, OF precious tapestries, of her
wondrOus specimens Of goldsmiths'
work, and moralist remarked that the
difference nowadays between Henelope
and Aspasia was that the first spin their
wool, while the others buy it-but in the
shape of Flanders tapestry.
Naturally, the story of this sale of Miss
Alice Towards bonbOnniere is grated
with legend. 1t was pretended that
this beautiful Parisianized English girl,
bidding farewell to the devil, his pOmps
and Vanities; deserving Paris, its camel
las anc its Bois de BOulogne, was about
to marry Scotch nobleman, and, ''the
world forgetting, by tue world iOrgot,v
hencei0rth and forever would keep her
heart in the Highlands on the banksf of
Loeb Katrine. Others againf0rged for her
a geneaiogy by which she was made the
relative of so-called "Lady" Howard,
whose name was intimately connected
with that of a President of the French
republic, who, thanks to her generosity,
was able to take those first steps which
placed him on an imperial throne. RO-
nance is always mixed up with every
thing nowadays, and is served up with
all sorts Of sauces even in this age of
realism. 1t would be too humiliating to
national female pride to admit that this
cannibal of hearts, this ghoul who has
devOured millions and driven dozen
simpletons TO suicide or dishOnor, should
have been nothing but maid OF
all work in London, a bailet-dancer at the
Alhambra, a sculptor's model after she
had been left waif and stray on the
streets Of Paris, ignorant OF one word Of
the French language, by disreputable
blackeg, with nothing but a lovely face,
faultess figure, and an entire absence
OF scTuples and principle. In ten years

this creature grew % be the acknowledged
queen Of continental beauty. and whether
she really does retire TO private life and

needed repairs to mansion and tomb, and
to the improvement Of the grounds. The
very foundations of the old mansion have
to be carefully watched and protected;
the walls and fences enclosing the estate
require constant repair. drains have to be
kept in order, aud roads mended, the Pc
culiar nature Of the soil making continual
vigilance necessary. Tho following APP
preparations were decided on by the Grand
Council: $1,000 for repairs on mansion;
$1,000 for new wharf; $500 for repairs on
tomb; $500 for Improvement Of garden
