THE HERESY TRIAL.
Two of the Charges Against Professor
Briggs Are Dropped.

NEW YORK, November 29.-The first
important question to come up in the
second days session of the Briggs heresy
trial this afternoon, was the stand the
prosecuting committee would decide to
take in regard to Professor Briggss OBJ
lection to the charges. After the roll
was called, Moderator Bliss announced
that the business before the court was
the consideration of the motion to strike
out two of the charges. Colonel Nc
Cook read the opinion of the committee
on the motion, and argued that the two
charges could not be dropped. In refer
ence to charge seven, Colonel McCook
said that DIR. Briggs's answer was irrele-
want, because although he affirmed be-
fore the professors of the Union Semina-
nv that he believed one who died unpeni-
tent was forever lost, he had since pro-
mulgated the theory of progressive
sanctification in his inaugural address,
and it was on this address that the
charge was founded. The fourth charge
could not lie dropped because of DR..
Briggs's denial of the fulfilment of the
details of prophecy was denial of the
truthfulness of the Bible and an i'm
peachment of the omnipotence of God.
DR.. Alexander insisted that commit
teeman had no right to argue on the OBJ
lection, and Colonel McCook resumed
his seat. DR.. Briggs said that. one of
Colonel McCook's points was based on
a typographical error in the printed copy
and must be dropped. He declared the
offer made yesterday to waive bis objec-
ton to the six other charges was made
conditionally.
When vote was reached the two

WASHINGTON, November 29.-The re-
port of Minister Scruggs relative to the
Mijares case, has been received at the
Department of State and it appears from
the minister's report that mo legal de-
mand was made upon the captain of the
Philadelphia for the surrender of Mijares
by the Venezuelan government. The
only demand was of verbal character
on the allegation that he was an ''enemy
of the government" No specific charge
was made of violation by him of the Or
dinary laws of Venezuela. No represen-
tation has been made to the legation
which would lead to the conclusion that
the government of Venezuela felt
aggrieved at the action of the consul at
Laguayra or at the captain of the Phila-
delphia.

self as the person destined by heaven
to raise the siege of Orleans and have
him crowned king of France.
In February, 1929, when she was
about eighteen years old, she was sum-
moned to Chinons to attend the dauphin
Of France. In his first interview with
her, he laid aside everything which
could distinguish him from the gentle
men around him in order to test the
truth of her asserttd miraculous in
spiration. She not only singled him out
without hesitation, but told him, in
private, secret unknown to every one
but himself. Whether or not he was
convinced of any divine influence in
her actions, he saw that her strange garb,
wild demeanor and youthfuness, had
powerfully impressed his court; he did
not doubt her efficiency to aid him, and
readily accepted her help. Still in her
masculine attire, with sword at her
side and carrying white banner, she
appeared before Orleans. The dauphin's
army, to man, was inspired with be-
lief in her heavenly mission, and were
melted to exertions, of which, under
different circumstances, they might
have been incapable. Joan boldly
threw herself into Orleans; the English
were compelled to raise the siege and
abandon the city they had been trying
to capture for six months. For her
heroism on this occasion, J oan obtained
the sobriquet of Maid of Orleans"
In less than three months after she
took the field she raised the siege of
Orleans, beat the English in four bat
ties, accompanied the dauphin in tri-
umph to Rheims, and saw him anointed
and crowned as king of France with the
title of Charles VII, in the magnificent
cathedral (still one of the finest Gothic
edifices in Europe) where his ancestors
before him had been crowned for centu-
ries past.
Now that her mission was ended
Joan was anxious to return to her par
ents, but her influence over the soldiers
was so powerful that King Charles
could not afford to give her up; at his
urgent entreaty she consented to re-
main. Almost Immediately the king
entered on the siege of Paris, but his
army was driven back with loss, and
Joan was among the wounded. AS
soon as her wounds were dressed and
she was able to walk, she went to the
church of st. Denis, where she re-
turned thanks to God for the benefits
she had received, and, hanging her arms
on one of the pillars before the shrine,
declared her resolution never to use
them again; but for the second time
King Charles interfered, and she re-
sumed her armor. In December of
this year, he rewarded her great SER
vices by raising her and all her family
to the rank of nobility.
The English soldiers called Joan a
witch, and said she conversed but with
devils by whose aid she conquered; for
this reason they were secretly afraid of
her.
The heroic "Maid of Orleans " now
no longer heard the heavenly voices,
but the most dreadful forebodings
took their place; she longed for her
mothers kiss and her solitary walks in
the quiet valley of the Meuse. But the
king needed her; the soldiers refused
to fight without her presence, and with
noble differentiation she put her de-
sires by, and devoted herself to her
country.

Finally, after taking part in many
successful combats, and having virtu
ally broken the strength of England in
France, she was captured by the Bur-
gundians while heading sortie from
the town of Compiegne. They, through
the Count of Ligny, transferred her,
for sixteen thousand francs, TO the
Duke of Bedford. This was what the
English had long de, sired; and, once in
their power, there was no escape for
her. She had been taken, openly fight
ing for king Charles, which could only
be punished by imprisonment for life.
That did not suit their vindictive hat, ed,
so they renewed their old charge of
witchcraft. If she was witch she was
hereto, the blacklist Cffense in the
catalogue of crimes of the Roman
church. The University of Paris pro-
nounced her guilty of witchcraft, so her
trial was taken out Of the hands of the
military, and the Bishop of Beauvais,
who was attached to the English cause,
demanded her as an offender against
the church. The officers of the In
QUESTION found her guilty, but promised
that her punishment should be COM
muted to confinement for life, if she
would sign paper which they read to
her. She readily consented, as the
paper only recorded the facts of her
bearing arms for King Charles ard ex-
citing the enthusiasm Of the soldiers in
his cause, which was all true; 80 she
affixed her mark to the paper But il
was not the one that had been read to
her; another had been substituted,
| 81, 80 &
crimes, which no torture had been able
to make her acknowledge. BY means
of this deception, it was very easy to
proceed against her.
The firmness and sweet patience of
this young girl, under the indignities
and cruelty of her trial, were little short
of miraculous. 1t is painful to dwell
on the narrowing details. On the Both
day of May, 1881, she was burned at
the stake, in the market-place at Rou, n +,
amidst the boots and jeers of the rab-
BILE, leaving an everlasting stain upon
the name of the duke of Bedford, dis
grazing the English who participated in
the murder and the Burgundian faction
who connived at it; but, for all time,
shedding glorious radiance on the
name of the peasant girl who willingly,
even joyfully, gave her life for her
country.
The French call her, emphatically, La
Pucelle, "The Maid" To the Ems lsh-
speaking world she is known as Joan of
Arc.
Her grateful countrymen bought the
cottage, at Domremy and preserved it
as national relic. Opposite it there
stands handsome monument, with a
colossal bust of the heroine; and the
fateful spot at Rouen is also marked
! by monument raised to her memory.
