SUNDAY AT CAPE MAY.
The President and His Wife Listen TO Sermon
Preached by Philadelphia Divine.

CAPE MAY. n. j.. June 23.-A great many
people were disappointed this morning
because the President and Mrs. Harrison
did not worship at the Presbyterian Church
here. as rumor that they would do so had
gone abroad. 1t had been arranged, how
ever. that the presidential party should at
tend service at the Beadle Memorial Pres
byterian Church at Cape May Point, which
stands directly upon the beach, within q
stones throw of the Wanamaker cottage.
1t not being very widely known, the beau
tiful little edifice was not uncomfortably
crowded. 1t was two minutes of II o'clock
when the President, Mrs. Harrison, Mr..
Wanamaker, Mrs. Herrison's father and
Rev. DR.. Wylie came in. DR.. Wylie is pas
tor of the Broad-street Presbyterian
Church. Philadelphia, and officiated on
this occasion. Mrs. HarrisOn's father,
Rev. DR.. Scott, sat behind the sacred desk
with DR.. Wylie. The pulpit was nicely
decorated with blooming plants. The
President and wife occupied the second
pew. Immediately in front of the speaker.

the ninth verse. The venerable
DR.. Scott then offered prayer. in which
our land and Nation, its President and
the government officials were remem-

delivered without notes, and listened to
with close attention by the President and

the benediction, pronounced by DR.. Scott.

dents and Mr.. Wanamaker's desire that
only few personal friends be admitted to-

SWINDLED HIS FRIEND.
The Queer Transactions Alleged to Have Taken
Place Between Two Men.

Los ANGELES, Cal, June ga. c. Will
Jams, arrested some days ago for forging
the name of Arthur Gorham. of Boston, to
a draft for $500. has made statement of
events leading up to his arrest. He states
that he nursed GOrham for month while
the latter was sick, and that Gorham, on
recovering, was very grateful, and prom
ised to provide for him all his life. Gorham
sent him on pleasure trip to London with
VIM. Prosser, a nephew of Baroness Hast
ings, and that he tWilliams.l remained in
London several weeks. He returned to go on
the stage in Chicago, but GOrham persuaded
him not to take this course, and gave him
more money. Williams then concluded he
would 90 to Australia. and GOrham pur-
chased a ticket for him., signing his own
name to the ticket for him. Williams says
G0rham then wrote out papers for him to
sign, releasing Gurham for nominal
amount for all claims for services rendered.
Gorham said he wished to show this paper
to his brother Jim, who was greatly Op-
posed to Williams. He promised to give
Williams 900 in two years If he would
sign the paper, and also give him 5000 the
third year. Williams said he signed the
document as AL. c. Blake. Gorham then
gave him x3 600 and both went on a spree.
The next day, when Williams left for Los
Angeles Gorham gave him a check for 500.
Williams says he has no fear of con-
sequences: that GOrham was very confden-
tial with him, and he don't think the latter
can afford to 90 back on him.

Marriage of q Pennsylvania to His Mother
in-Law Raises an Interesting Question.
Special 10 the Indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON. June pa very interest
ing question has arisen in the courts of
Philadelphia growing out of a marriage
which look place in Washington last week.
1t seems that certain gentleman called
upon minister in the Quaker City. and
requested him to unite him in marriage to
lady who accompanied him. The min
lister put some questions to the expectant
tonishment, that the gentleman wanted to
marry his mother-in-law, his first wife
having died some time previously. The
minister did not want to perform the GER
emony without some knowledge of the
law, and upon making inquiry learned that
the statutes of the Commonwealth of
Fennsylyania prohibit such marriages.
with a penalty fixed at fine of $500 and
imprisonment. The ceremony was there

A few days later, however. much to the
aston1Shment of the minister and the other
people who knew the couple, q marriage

announcing that the ceremony had been
Now the validity of this marriage is agitat-
ing the minds OF those learned in marriage
law, and several hunts of musty statutes
have been inaugurated to ascertain wheth-
er there Is anything in the laws of the Dis
ret of Columbia to prohibit such mar
subject, but it may be that there is pro-
vision of common law or an old Maryland
act which prohibits such marriages. If so,
they have not yet been found.

The effect of 1.400 male voices united in

Mothers Murder and Suicide.

STERLING. Kan, June 22-Mr. OBJ. Beck
ham went to Hutchinson yesterday on
business, and. returning late in the even
ing. he retired without disturbing his wife,
who he supposed had retired. and who
had OH former occasions asked him not to
disturb her when he came home late. Mr..
Beckham is not q sound sleeper, but this
morning he oversight himself, and, going
to his wife's room, he tried to open the door
for the purpose of calling her, but found 1T
locked. He called her by name several
times, and, receiving no answer, he broke
open the door. The first sight that
met his gaze was his little
two-year-old daughter lying across
the foot of the bed cold in death, and his
wife living on the floor in the agonies of
death, with a frightful wound in her right
temple and a thirty-two calibre revolver
living beside her. Medical aid was sum:
moned, but the victim was beyond medical
skill. She breathed her last about II
o'clock. In the case of the child the coro-
ners Jury found that it came 10 its death at
the hands of its mother. either by poison or
smothering. In the case of the mother 1T
found that she came to her death by pistol
shot fired with her own hand. and that she
was at the time laboring under tit of tenn
porary insanity. She left n letter TO her
husband, in which she said life had become
intolerable on account of ill-health. and
that she could not think of leaving her
child without the care of mother.

WAS AN OLD STORY.
Congressman Cannon Breaks Up a Club Meet
ing by Relating an Aged Yarn.


Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, June 23.-They tell good
story on Representative Joseph Cannon. of
Illinois. An organization here known as
the "Six O'clock Club" which meets once
every month, gave it's first summer meet
and excursion on Friday evening, trip
being made to Marshall Hall, near Mount
Vernon. The rules of the club are lenient,
and to be a member it is only necessary for
man to have a dollar in his pocket. Rep
resentative Cannon was one of the party
that made the trip on Friday night After
reaching it's destination the club formed
around the supper table, and the speech
making began. A number of prominent
men, mostly leading scientists including
General Greedy, had made pleasant little
speeches, when Mr.. Cannon was called
upon, being introduced as the next Speaker
of the House of Representatives. He bgan
to tell very, very old story, which
has been going the rounds ever since
the Chief-justice of England went down to
Mount Vernon with Senator Evarts. The
Chief told the Senator that he had been
told that George Washington once threw q
silver dollar across the Potomac (which is
about g. mile and a half wide at that point),
a dollar went good deal further than it
does now. Mr.. Cannon attempted to palm
off that old story as something new, when
General Greely frowned, and it began to
rain. The meeting was broken up, the
members went home an hour before the APP
pointed time, and a dozen or more excellent
speeches. entirely new, were left unspoken.
Representative Cannon is said to be the
greatest letter-writer In Congress. He
spends several hours a day debating as
many letters as his stenographer can trans
cribe, and then writes a large number in
his own hand.

pipes led from the. engine to the
boiler. The boys intended to attach tho
engine to an ice-cream freezer so that hand
turning could be dispensed with. While
Harry was oiling the engine and Willie
was banking the fire with bricks O terrific
explosion occurred which was felt for
blocks around. Both boys were hurled
some distance and frightfully crushed,
both by being thrown against the walls
and by being struck with flying bricks and
pieces of metal. Harry died instantly. and
Willie lived only an hour. The little
Kneise boy and his mother were watching
the experiments from an adjoining shed.
