The Synod of the Churches in Pennsylvania
and West Virginia.
SCRANTON, Oct. 15.-[ Special. AT the
Synod OF the Presbyterian Churches of
Pennsylvania and West Virginia in this
city to-day the complaint of Rev. 7. H.
Nimmo against the Pennsylvania North
Presbytery, and the complaint of Charles E.
Craven against the Chester Presbytery,
were referred to the Judiciary Committee.
Reports were heard from the colleges. A
motion was made that the Synod attend the
installation of DR.. Warfeld as President
of the Lafayette College in body, but
there was opposition to this, and the ques-
tion was referred
The Committee on Ministerial Sustenta-
tion estimates that from 81 800 to So, 900 will
be required to pay the debts and relieve
ministers who have applied for help, but
who have not been considered owing to the
lack OF funds. One hundred and thirteen
churches were supplied with pastors
through the instrumentality of the commit
tee, and 1,lO3 persons were added to the
Church through the same channel. To sat
lsfy the appeals for next year it is esti-
mated that S17, 900 will be needed. The
committee recommended that a woman's
auxiliary be organized to cooperate with
the committee in the work of raising this
amount. Rev. j. NJ. McJunkin, of Pitts
burg, Corresponding Secretary of the Sus-
tentation Committee, reported that in the
fiscal year 1SS9-9O "a applications had been
made for the relief and that SIS. 1893 had
been granted to aid needy churches. On
October 1, 1891, orders amounting to
S4,516 20 remained unpaid in the hands of

MOKANNA, THE YELLED.
Influence of the Most Remarkable Char
acter of the Eighth Century.

Influence of the Most Remarkable Char.
acter of the Eighth Century.
The veiled prophet was not creation Of
mere fancy, but a genuine historic char
acter of the eighth century. His name was
Suskim Ben Allah, but he called himself
Mokanna, the Yelled. Having lost one eye
from an arrow wound, he wore thick veil
to conceal the deformity, and laid claim to
be an incarnation of the Deity. He had
many followers in Arabia, and soon pos
sessed himself of large part of that coun-
try, and was acknowledged by a number of
cities His influence was retained by many
devices, such being his skill in magic and
legerdemain that his tricks passed for mir
acles
Troops were sent against him by the
Calipu- Mahadi, his armies were defeated in
the field, and he was besieged in a small
fortress in the south of Arabia. Finding
success impossible and deeming escape hope
less, he poisoned his attendants in a BAN
quet and leaped into we'll or cistern which
had been partly filled with destructive
acids. When the conquerors forced way
into the castle they searched in vain for
him or his body, the latter having been en-
tirelv dissolved by the corrosive fluids
The secret was discovered by the confession
of one who had beheld the preparations for
suicide; but in some parts of Arabia there
are still persons who believe that Mokanna
ascended to heaven.

TO MEET sLOSsON.
The Wizard of the Cue Leaves Chicago fol
the Big Contest.

CHICAGO Oct. 16.-Jacob Schaefer, the
worlds champion at billiards, left tonight
for Cincinnati, thence he will journey to
New York, reaching there Sunday, to en-
gage in a match October 26 with George F.
Slosson. Schaefer is in the finest form of
his life, and feels confident of retaining his
supremacy over all experts. For some un-
accountable reason the local papers have of
late quite ignored the practice games of the
champion. To reassure the countless per-
sonal friends of Schaeter it need only be
stated that recently he scored such perform
ances as 800 points in six innings at the IA
inch balk line and 500 points in seven inn
ings Eugene Carter was his opponent in
the aforementioned game, but was COM
pletely smothered by such r, ms as 172 and
2T7
For months Schaefer has led the quietest
kind of life and to-day is physically up to
the highest notch. There is no betting on
the coming match, simply because no Slos-
son money is offered.

A GirIish Romance Cut Short.

NEWARK, O., Oct. 16.-[SpeeioL Am
affectionate meeting took place here to-day
at the Baltimore and Ohio depot between
two sisters named Armstrong, of Belleville,
this county. The youngest of the two,
Lille, rather good looking and inexperi-
enced, had just arrived home after having
been enticed away by mail clerk named
Phillips on the promise to wed her. He
got her to go to Chicago and while there
spent all his money, and when that was out
he took what little she had and then left her
a stranger in a strange city. She found her
way to this city in the hope of catching
him. Failing, she notified her family Of
her troubles, and her sister arrived a few
days ago to take her home. Superintendent
Burt, of the Railway Mail Service at once
suspended the gay deceiver. He will prob
ably be arrested

QUESTIONS RAISED BY THE FLOOD.
The Heirship of an Estate in Johnstown a
Hard Legal Nut TO Crack.


JOHNsTowN, Oct 16.-[ Special Am
other peculiar question growing out of the
flood comes in the final settlement of the
Catharine Hoffman estate here. Mrs. Hof-
man owned property in her own name
which had been willed to her bv her husband
and was worth about $4,000. In the flood
she and her five children were drowned.
The administrator has not settled the estate
and the question as to who is to get the
money is now before the Auditor
The questions arising here are different
from any heretofore growing out of the
flood. The heirs of Mrs. Hoffman and
those of her children claim the money, but
there are no direct heirs on either side, the
claimants being only what the law calls
collateral heirs. The question of the dis
position of the property is whether Mrs.
Hoffman or her children died first Of
course, if the children died first the money
will go to the heirs of the woman, while
the contrary would be the case if any one
OF the children survived her for but a
moment. The principle in law, that the
strongest is supposed to survive the longer
in common disaster, is hard to apply here.
Charley, the oldest of the boys, was II
years of age, and thu attorneys naturally
argue that he would survive his mother.
Direct evidence will also be offered as to
the relative time of their deaths by persons
who saw them in the flood and saw some of
them die

DISTRESSING EVENT.
What Might Happen at Any Time

Mrs. A. fell to the floor after a social gath
ering, prostrated by nervous weakness and
exhaustion.
There are thousands who feel just ready
to drop from nervous weakness. 1t is what
makes so many nervous, tired, languid,
without energy or ambition. They have
headache, stomach trouble, kidney and
nver complaints, constipated bowels, ma
laria, headache, palpitation, poor blood, etc.,
which are caused by weakened nerves and
nervous prostratiou.
Ii they would use DIR. Greene's Nervurs,
the great nerve and blood invigorator, all
these distressing troubles will Immediately
disappear. Especially should ladies use It
who have female weakness and debility.

Invading Private Detectives r,,ed

CHARLESTON, w. ", Oct. 16.-[Special I
The West Virginia coal miners, under the
leadership of NJ. F. Moran, District Presi-
dent of District No. II, have at last de-
termined upon course of action regarding
the detectives on guard at the RAYMOND City
Marmet Mines, brought there from Cincin-
natl by the Hazen Detective Agency. To-
day II of the detectives were arrested
charged with being members of an armed
BODY invading the State in violation of the
law. They were released on bail, but were
at once rearrested on the charge of carving
concealed weapons. Governor Wilson is
counsel for the miners, and the hearing of
the detectives will take place Monday.

SOME STARTLING FIGUR IS,
Big Winnings During the Turf Season Just
Ended at New York

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-The racing season
ended yesterday at Morris Park. 1t would
have made our grandfathers stare to look at
some of these figures: J. A. and A. H.
Morris leads the list with total of S154, 4S0,
which was won for them by u race horses.
Michael F. Dwyer is only step below them
with s143, ,2O5, although he had only II in
his stable
One race horse, His Highness, won the
enormous sum of S1O6,325. Fifteen years
ago managers of racing association giving
away so much money would have been con-
sidered lunatics. Sensation, the marvel of
his decade, did not win the fourth part of
it. fremont, whose fame is still green,
won hardly a third of it, although like
Sensation. he never lost q race. This only
shows the extraordinary growth of the
American turf 1t is worthy of note that
owners of four racing stables have won
more than 100000, and that ten have won
more than $4,000
Longstreet is probably the greatest thor
oughbred this generation has seen. He
easily leads the all-age division Tenny was
a failure, although he won the Brooklyn
Handicap. Although Potomac ran few races
because of his broken hoof, he is credited
with ,943

If 1t Would Take Polish 1t Would Be Per-
fect-Some Other Leathers.
st. Louis Democrat
The kangaroo shoe of the present is very
different article from that of a few years
ago. Formerly the kangaroo leather would
crack with few weeks wear, but secret
improvement in the process of tanning has
made it as durable as the finest calf 1t is
as soft to the foot as porpoise leather, but
still retains its shape, which the latter
never does. Porpoise leather shoes will
wear as long as alligator hide, but the. por-
poise skin is so full of oil that it soils the
stockings, and stretches so abominably that
the shoes never hold their shape.
A pair of porpoise leather shoe strings
will stretch six inches, and shoes made of
the leather, with weeks wear, will be as
fiat and flabby as tramp's brogans. Only
one improvement is necessary to make the
kangaroo perfect leather AT present it
will not take polish, and when its manu-
facture is improved so that it will polish
like calfskin nothing will equal it.
