fr~res.
The Plymouth confreres met last evening
in the parlor of the church. A very inter-
esting paper was read by n. f. Hawley on
church finances. in which he urged CO.
operation as means of lessening church
expenses. He cited instances where two
denominations tremendously occupy the
same building. He deserted extravaganza
in church building as an unnecessary eX-
,penditure of money that should be used in
church work. He considered money
given to support Of religion as
being well invested, from what
ever standpoint it is considered.
1t will bring good returns IN the same way
that investments in public parks and
libraries are beneficial. A church in its
temporal affairs should be amenable to
business laws in as strict sense as any other
private corporation, and this is phase OF

SINGULAR NUT THREATENED
1t is Probable IIae County Commits
siOneFs May Halt.

There has been a great amount of specu-
ton on and no little alleged Shrewd guess
ing of the object of the proposed purchase
of the county poor farm; but everything
has been entirely wide OF the work until
Yesterday, when affairs took such shape as
10 show The commissioners to have whfully
thrown away valuable property: or. to have
been criminally ignorant of its real value,
or else to show that somebody in or con-
nected with the board is a party to a
swindle of the county for the benefit Of
certain real estate spectators. Giving bare
facts. it may be briefly stated that the com
missioners have practically agreed to sell
about $50 acres for S15o an acre.
In spite of an offer of SITS an acre
for the same amount and in the face
Of the statement by one member of the
board that $500 per acre had been offered
for the land. 1t may also be stated that it
Is said the land is worth, for the purpose to
which it is proposed to put it. at least $500
per acre, and that this knowledge is in pos
session of at least one member of the board.
There was considerable excitement over the
matter in certain quarters last night, and
there is almost certainty that trouble viii
come before the transfer is cOnSummated.
An attorney, who claimed to have originated
the scheme of the purchase and was after
wards frozen out. said:
This sale is swindle OG the taxpayers of
the county, and propose to institute legal
proceedings to prevent its consummatiUn. -
If proceedings of this kind are instituted
they may throw some light Oh transaction
in the board which has worn cloud, at
least. upon it and will place the tile in
such condition that the land cannot for a
wear at least be used for the purposes for
which the purchase is to be made. In a
few days at fartheSt it may be learned why
the bid of Sl56 was accepted when higher
Urice and better terms were offered.
The scheme connected with the purchase
IS not q stock-yard plan, as has been sug-
gested. and the purchase is not TO be made
in the Interest OF any railroad project. The
whole matter simply is that the farm, from
its advantageous location, offers unusually
good facilities for town site for speculative
purposes. Four railroads virtually touch
IT. three of which could be covered by one
station. and with proper booming the LAND
could be plated and readily sold il lots. Ii
is probable that in few days there will be
some interesting developments which vii
Aissipate the mystery which surrounds the
s6leme at present.

A Complication Avoided


WHY THE PRESIDENT DELAYED SIGNING THE
LEGISLATIVE APPROPRIATION BILL.
The President signed the legislative bill yes
terday afternoon, but Acting Secretary Fair
child called at the White House this morning
and represented to the President that
should the appropriation bill take eff
feet from this morning, considerable
complication would arise in paying off
the clerks in the offices where reductions
are made by the bill. AS the bill had not
i iti the White House. the President withheld
will not go into effect until August LIST. Had
the bill gone into effect from this morning
employees whose salary is affected by the bill
could only be paid up to last night IT the accus-
toned rate, as the provisional bill providing
for the expenses OF the government loses its
effect upon the approval of the regular bill. 1t
will be seen that u good deal of complication
was avoided by the withholding o. the Presi-
dents apprOYal.

had been formed for the purpose of cornering

were 1900 barrels of whisky of the years

ready bought up $4,000 barrels. Chicago
dealers were reported to be interested in the
syndicate. In order to verify some of these
statements, a reporter visited q large number
of the wholesalers and distillers and asked

ROwdyism ON Railroad Excursions.
To the Editor of The EVENING STAR:
Allow me, through the columns of your valu-
able paper. TO call the attention of the railroad

any gentleman to take wife, daughter or sister
Oh these occasions where unbridled license is
unlimited and unchecked. The writer of this
communication was one OF those who took adj
vantage Of the opportunity recently offered by
