DARK SECRET REVEALED.
The Sanguinary Mystery Which Startled the
West End Police.

The Sanguinary Mystery Which Startled the
West End Police.
A dark mystery with CORY trimmings dis.
turbed the peaceful routine of the West
End police force yesterday morning. A re-
port was brought to them that skif Gov
cred with fresh blood had foated down the
river and lodged on the shore pear the
mouth of Saw Mill run. The name OF w.
H. Bigley, a well known riverman from
Logan's Feerrv, was painted on the boat
and in it was found an envelope bearing the
owners address.
Visions of a horrible tragedy foated
though the minds of the officers. The abb
sence of oars and the fact that one of the
seats was broken as if in a desperate strug-
gle confirmed their suspicious. Officers
we're set to work to unravel the mystery.
They labored all day without success In
the evening, however, Q son OF Mr. Bigley's 6
came to town and explained everything.
On Monday night thieves had stolen so
chickens and 20 fine turkeys from S. (
Rodgers, of Hutton. Thev had previously
stolen Mr. Bigley's skltf and had it in wait
ing. They were tracked from Rodgers
barn to the river in the snow. As they
foated down the river they killed the
poultry on the boat. Probably with an in
tention to cause a sensation they had
broken the seat smeared blood on the boat
and carefully removed all the feathers Of
the dead chickens

A CHURCH SQUABBLE.
Mr.. Thompson Addressed a Rival
Missionary Faction at Sharon.
TIE PASTOR DID NOT APPROVE 1T,
And Asked the Z. r. Presbytery to Call
Him Down Which Was Refused.
FINANCIAL MATTERS ABLY HANDLED

The Presbytery of the United Presbyter-
ian Church held its last quarterly meeting
in the Sixth Q. P. Church yesterday. A
letter was read from Rev. j. A. Bailey,
pastor of the q. P. Church of Sharon,
in which he complained bitterly of the
conduct of Presley Thompson, student at
the seminary.
1t appears from Mr. Bailey's letter that
he has been having considerable trouble in
his church over some missionary matters,
and that the faction which opposed him
rented house within sound of his church
and held its meetings there, and that young
Thompson, upon invitation of the rebellious
members, addressed this new congregation
upon several occasions, Mr. Bailey alleges
in his letter that this is fragrant
violation on Thompson's part, not
only of the courtesy he owes him
as q regularly ordained minister, but OF the
rules of the seminary as we'll, and asked
the Presbytery to thoroughly investigate
the matter.
DR.. Robinson, at the close of the reading
of Mr.. Bailey's letter, moved that 1t be
laid upon the table, stating that
the matter could be quietly investi-
gated before the next meeting, and said
that he did not think Mr.. Thompson had
uOHC al ybnluR WT0Bg Ut dudiCeSiuS sNS
meeting. Rev. Mr. Reed thought differ
emily, and wanted to consider Mr.. Bailey's
charges at once, but when the matter was
put to vote it was decided by big ma
joritY to lay it upon the table. Mr. Reed
intimated that there was more back of the
charges against young Thompson than was
suspected, and thought the Presby-
terv was not treating Mr.. Bailey
fairly by not Investigating the matter at
once. At the close of the meeting Mr..
Reed was asked concerning the church
trouble at Sharon and the charges against
young Thompson, but he refused to make
any statements whatever concerning either.
DR.. Robinson offered . resolution against
the repeal of the law closing the Worlds Fair
on Sunday, which was unanimously adopted,
and petition signed bv the members OF the
Presbvtery will be sent to Congress asking
that body not to repeal the act.
G. n. Paden, financial agent of the Pres
bvtery, made short address on the subject
of finances, and asked that the methods of
other churches in raising money be
adopted. James G. Story and j.
w. Harris delivered trial sermons
The people at Aspinwall on the
West Penn road have started to build
church. A resolution was adopted appoint
ing a committee of seven elders to report
on the location of missions with a view OF
extending the church within the bounds of
the Presbytery.

IRON AND sroNY MkrEoR1rEs
The Metal Is Contained in Nearly All the
Larger LIthic Objects.

The Metal Is Contained in Nearly Ali the
Larger LIthic Objects.
Mr.. Eastman offers the following theory
to account for the apparent excess of iron
over stony meteorites: "When q stony
meteorite falls to the earth it generally
breaks into many fragments, and the rup-
tured surfaces plainly indicate the nature
of the catastrophe. No case is on record
where an areolite showed any indication OF
having been twisted, broken or torn from
another mass of the same material.
"The true type Of meteorite which reaches
the earth from outer space is probably SIM
liar to that which fell in Iowa county, Ia,
on February IL, 1875 The celestial visitor
is composed almost wholly Of lithic matter,
but scattered through the mass are small
grains of niekeliferous iron. This iron
NAV exist in the stony matrix in all forms
and sizes from the microscopic nodule TO
the mass Weighing several tons
"When the lithlc mass comes in contact
with the earth's atmosphere the impact
breaks up the matrix, sets free the iron
bodies and they reach the earth in the
same condition, SO far as mass and figure
are concerned, as they exist III the original
formation. In such cases 1t ie probable
that the stony portion of the original body
is rent into such small fragments by the ex-
pIosion that these would not reach the
earth in any, appreciabls size. The larger
the masses of iron the more complete would
be the destruction of the original body, and
the larger lithie meteorites would be those
containing the smaller granules of iron"

Be Completed.
The new Phipps Conservatory in Schenley
Park is gradually nearing completion, and
in but about six weeks the first consign-
ment of plants and flowers will be placed
therein. Already an entire wing of the
building is up and ihcIosed in glass, and an
army of workmen are employed setting up
the iron frame work and putting in the
glass. The manufacturers of the structure
in New York are shipping the material
ready for adjusting, almost daily, and the
employees are setting it IN place as fast as it
arrives The glass, for the most part, is
made here, and is ready on the ground to be
set in place as fast as the frame work is
erected. The whole will be completed by
March l, and when done will be the largest
conservatory of any kind, public or private,
anywhere in the world.
