THE CHURCH
WAR NOW ON.
Evangelicals Apply to the Court for
a Rule.
LOCAL CHURCH INVOLVED
The BOwmanites ASK That the Present
Local Church Authorities be Re-
strained in Exercising Control.

The church war in the Evangelical
church between the Bowmanites on the
one side and the Dubsites on the other, has
at last assumed legal shape in this county
and the guns will be fired at the next
term of the Pottsville civil court in pro-
ceedings instituted by the Bowmanites to
secure control Of the Evangelical church
property in Shenandoah and Tamaqua.
The proceedings were instituted az Potts.
Vile on saturday by John w Ryon and
Edward b. Esher, Esqs., filing two bills
in equity to restrain the Dubs faction
from exercising authority over the Shen-
andoah and Tamaqua churches.
One of the lawyers representing the
plaintiff, Edward b. Esher, Esq, is a son
of Bishop Esher. He was interested i'm the
Reading case that was decided in favor Of
the Bowmanites in the Supreme Court
| several weeks ago.
In the Shenandoah case Rev J. S. New
hart, of Pottsville, and Rev. r. F. Bohner,
appear as plaintiffs; Rev. George w. Gross,
presiding elder Rev. r. NJ. Lichtenwal-
ner, o. S. Keller, r. Stocker, g. Gessly,
John l.. Hassler, Henry Sampsel, Sr, and
Jacob Kester are made defendants.
The bill sets forth that Revs. Lichten-
walner and Gross fal Sely claim 70 be the
pastor and presiding elder, respectively,
Of the Ebenezer Evangelical church at
| Shenandoah, and that the rest of the de-
PENDANTS are falsely acting as trustees of
the church in defiance of the ruling
made by the Supreme Court in the
Reading case. On the strength of these
allegations the Bowman faction prays
for an injunction restraining the Dubs
faction from collecting any money from
the members of the Shenandoah congrega'
tioh, Or rents from any property owned by
the ondrcn; hat they De enjoinbd iIum
removing any property from the church
edifice, and that Rev. Lichtenwalner bt
compelled to deliver to Rev. Newhart the
official records of the church, and that
the defendant trustees faction be enjoneC
from permitting any person to occupy thu
parsonage of the church, except the law
fully appointed pastor.
Deputy Sheriff Ochs, of Pottsville, ar
rived in town this morning and served
copies of the rule upon Rev. Lichten
walner and all the defendant trustees.
When questioned this morning abou
the case by a reporter one of the trustee
said that there was nothing to be said OF
the part of the local church in the case
that the trustees had not consulted thei
counsel A meeting of the trustees will
be held tonight and probably some actioi
| will be taken to meet the case in cour
, upon the return of the rule next Monday

A Gnnd Show.

"UncIe Toms Cabin" was played before
an average audience at the Temple theatre
last night The crowd was an apprecia-

formance as much as if it were but a sin
gle season old. Trenton has been called
a good "Tom-town" from the fact that
such shows are generally well patronized
by local theatre goers. The bloodhounds,
donkeys and ponies are all as interesting
as ever. The parade made by the com
feats of their drum-majors are truly won
