CHURCH ENTERPRISE.
Three Dollars Raised in Several
Mouths for n New Edifce


Months for a New Edifce.
The First African Baptist Church OF
West Morton, near Chester, Pa, has
beaten the record OF church enterprise.
The church has nine officers, eighteen
other members, and occasionally a
pastor. Some months ago the members
voted to raise money to build house
of worship. AS the church was poor
and the people of Chester seemed dis
posed to let it remain so, the official
third of the members detailed a COM
mittee to ask for contributions from
travellers at the B. & O. station at
Chester. The committee began work a
few months ago. Last Sunday George
Johnston, one of its members, explained
all this to New York Sun reporter,
who changed cars at Chester, and
showed a little brown book in which the
reporter was requested to write his
name opposite ''25 cents paid;
"How much do you wish to raise?"
was asked.
zone hundred and twenty-five dollars

de church,
''How are you getting along?"
''Fust rate, sab, fust rate"
''How much have you got so far?"

(scurrying through the leaves of the
little brown book, two dollahs an
seventy-three cents, sah."
The reporters contribution of just q
cents brought a big smile to the COM
mitteeman's face, and a fervant God
bless yo'!" from his lips.

CRONIN'S MURDERERS.
Luke Dillon Says They Will Be in
10

CHICAGO, July 10.-Luke Dillon is respon
sible for the statement that prominent
Irishmen will be arrested in New York
in connection with the Cronin murder.
Dillon refused 70 divulge the individuals
name, however, but stated that he has some
strong circumstantal evidence in his pos E
session and is confident that the murderers
of DR.. Cronin will be in custody before two
weeks have passed.
Nothing of an interesting character was
developed at to-days session of the Cronin
jury of inquest. During the morning
Michael Whalen, the suspended detective,
who was with Detective Coughlin when
they met Smith, the man suspected
of driving Cronin to his death, but
did rot arrest him, and Thomas OConnor,
tnsmith, were the only witnesses. Both are
members of the Clan-na-Gael, but a rigid
cross examination failed to connect them
with the DOCTORS taking off. During
the noon recess the jury held con-
sultation with the coroner in his
Office in which it was decided that those sum-
moned to testify whose evidence would be
bnt corroporation of what had been already
offered should be excused, the jury being in
their minds satisfied of the truth
of the principal allegation, that Cronin came
to his death as the result of a conspiracy and
that sufficient animus and motive existed to
form conspiracy. Should any witnesses be
on the list the testimony of whom would
contradict anything thus far presented it
was desired that such witnesses be of course
heard rs well as those who had anything
new. This decision will doubtless shorten
the inquest by at least one day.
AT the afternoon session James Canal and
A. j. Jordan, Clan-na-G Gael men, were put on
the stand and examined at length without
bringing out anything new or sensational.
Thomas Whalen, brother of ex-Detective
Michael Whalen and a cousin of Ice Man
Sullivan, was next sworn. He denied being
a member of the Clan-na Gael. Patrick Can
non, the last witness of the day. avowed him
self member. Nothing of any Importance
was extracted from either.
