DR.. P0TTER'S TRIAL TONIGHT.
Written Charges Will Be Heard by
tho Church Committee.

The first formal action in the trial
Of Rev. Or. Daniel G. Potter. pastor Of
the Tabernacle Baptist Church on Sec
ond avenue. between Tenth and Eleventh
streets, who is accused, among other
things. OF intemperance and immortality,
will occur tonight. when the Com
mittee appointed for the purpose will
receive the written charges.
The Committee will meet in the
chapel at 7.3O. No one will be admitted,
according to Lawyer A. G. Wander
poel. who is the Chairman, except those
who have written charges to submit.
"The Committee will require that the
charges be specific. and that there be a
definite assignment OF fact" said Mr..
Nanderpoel :his morning. "A narra-
tion Of mere Eeneralities does not me8n
anything, and the Committee could
not investigate It. Further than that
! have nothing to say. for che reason
that the Church Manual forbids any
member revealing anything OF private
nature"
DR.. Potter refused to discuss the mat
ter. He returned from his Summer
home at Stamford yesterday and con-

Rev. Dr. Putnam, the assistant pas
tor, who makes the charges against

every charge.

Boston is in a state OF mind over the
appearance on her streets OF number
OF prominetn ladies. arrayed In n wide
departure from the conventional fem
inine costume of the day. There are said
to be at least dozen OF the advanced
thinkers of the female sex who have ap-
peared in public in the new costume
which they have determined to adopt.
The things might be called "bloomers'
or divided skirts" but they are simply
pants" cut very full and gathered at
the ankle, but still pants. Among the
more prominent people who have ap-
peared In these garments are Mrs B. o.
Flower. wife of the editor Of The Arena,
and Miss Laura Bee, prominent artist.
Both have been shopping in their Syrian
trousers, and they call them by that
name. They both say that their unique
attire has caused them no other annoy
ance but to be stared at. They like 1t
and mean to stick to it.
