Rev. G. M. Schiedy resigned his pas
torate of the st. Marks Lutheran
church ON Monday night The resig-
nation was unanimously accepted
A letter was read from Mr.. Scheidy
in which he stated that the cause of
his resignation lay entirely with the
church council. A personal grievance
had been recognized by the council and
he claimed that this was unseriptural
There was also mysterious disa gree
ment" between the council and him
self which he could not reconcile and
the disagreement involved question
Of truthfulness which affected his
character too seriously to administer
the word and sacrament to his congre-
cation.
The grievances referred to in the
pastors letter arose from difference
between him and the younger mem
bers with regard to the choir and
efforts had been made to patch up q
truce but without success. hence the
final decision of the meeting
Arrangements are being made to
supply the pulpit through the secretary
of the home missions of the general

Another brutal murder occurred up
the valley yesterday morning in the
shooting Of Maria Kerzic by her lover,
Frank Beck at Olyphant. The mur-
derer has been arrested Both parties
are residents of Rakitna, Bohemia, and
arrived in this country only three
days ago. The foully- girl
was to have been welded yesterday to
fellow eountrymen, which is assigned
as the cause of the act of the Tilted and
jealous Bezsk.
Miss Kerzic, the murdered girl, was
% years Of age, and rather pretty. The
murderer was suitor for her hand. but
she did not encourage his attentions
and this made him desperate when he
learned that she was about to be mar
ried to Anthon Boursohnach. She
lived with her sister. Mrs. Frances
Kramar, Of Race street Oyphant, and
Yesterday morning was preparing the
house for the marriage ceremony.
when Beck called to see her at 8
o'clock.
REFUSED TO MARRY HIM,
He asked her II she intended to
marry Bourschnach. Her affirmative
reply had but left her lips when he
pulled a revolver from his pocket and
fired at her The first shot struck her
in the face and the second penetrated
her temple and she dropped dead at
mis- feet. After she had fallen be fred
again and the bullet planted itself in
her foot.
The murderer's weapon was empty,
but he began TO reload it with the evi.
dent intention OF also numbering Mrs.
Krsmar, the murdered girls sister.
After committing the deed he ran
toward the river and was pursued by
large crowd. He wsded into the
middle of the stream and there sat on
piece Of driftwood.
The crowd on the bank became larger
and the murderer seeing all hope Of
escape cut off, walked out Of the river
and was captured by Constable Philip
williams and taken before Justice Of
the Peace M. W. Cummings, who after
hearing the testimony Of Mrs. Kramsr
and another witness to the shooting,
made out commitment, and the MUIR
derer was brought to the county Jail
HE INTENDED TO KILL HER.
Beck is 81 years OF age and Of me-
dunn build. He cannot speak English
He admitted that he bought the re,
volver to kill the girl.
Coroner Kelley was notified and went
to the scene in the afternoon. A jury
was empanelled and several witnesses
sworn. The verdict was substantially
that the deceased came to her death
from bullet wounds inflicted by Beck.
The murder Is the all absorbing
topic in Olyphsnt. Its eold.blooded
ness and calculating fendishness are
unparalleled in this region save perhaps
the brutal murder of Emmanuel Lore
at Old Forge last summer.

The Durant House seizure case came
up in the Municipal court yesterday
forenoon. The respondent, Chas. S.
SWEET, manager of the house, was pres
emit with his counsel, Ardon W. Coombs
ESQ.
Deputy Plummer took the stand for
the State. He testified that on the even
ing of June 25th, Monday week, he and
Deputy Sterling went to the Durant
House, and in Room IL found man in
bed, early in the evening. On the floor
was a rum bottle. Several beer bottles
and jug, fresh with liquor were found.
The
ROOM SMELT LIKE A BAR ROOM.
There were stains, as of beer, on the
white bed spread. After the seiz ure
Mr.. SWEET came into the room and whis-
pered to the man, who then claimed the
liquor. Deputy Sterling corroborated
the statements of Deputy Plummer In
the closet were five or six lager beer bot
ties empty; also the two gallon jug
empty.
Questioned by Mr.. Coombs, the man in
bed at first seemed surprised that the
liquor. was in the room; later he claimed
it as his property. Did not say where
he got it. Should say the bottles in the
closet were moist, nothing ran out of
the jug, but it smelt fresh, that is it
smelt as if there had been liquor in it;

Deputy PIummer produced the bottle
that was seized. It was about one third
full.
A young man with glasses, named
George +. Bartlett, took the stand for the
State. Had seen SWEET once before H.

Went to the room No. II, asked for glass
of beer and drank it out of the bottle
Didn't know the man who sold him the

evening. Went to room IL because >he
had been there week before. He saw
then different man. He asked for a
bottle of beer, got it and paid for it.

Room IL the first time because somebody
told him it was

When he was there the beer seller went
