CHARLESTON, s. c., Oct. Tt is learned
to-day that the vestry of ST. Mary's Catho-
lie church has discharged Sexton John T.

that Kannapaux had made himself con-
spicuous in upholding DR.. McDow, the
slayer of the late Capt. F. w. Dawson, who
was for many years a member Of ST.

admlrer of DR.. Mellow, and the congrega-
tion of st. Mary's, hearing of his action,
demanded his discharge. Kannapaux is the

not expelled or compelled DIR. Mellow to
resign. DR.. Mellow is still the surgeon of
that organization. All the honorary mem
bers of the company have resigned.
