BOWMANITES WIN.
A Famous Church Case Decided by the
Supreme Court.

Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
met at Pittsburg yesterday and among
the decisions handed down was one grant
ing an injunction to Rev. A. Krecker and
others against Rev. Jones and others.
The case arose over a dispute about church
property growing out of the celebrated
split in the Evangelical Association at
the time Bishops Dubs, Esher and Bow
man were suspended from their offices.
The court rules that the last conference
at Indianapolis was the legitimate ruling
power of the church and that the Western
Pennsylvania conference was an illegally
constituted and rebellious body. The
property in question is the Emmanuel
Church at Reading. The decision practi-
cally gives the ownership of 2lO churches
in Pennsylvania to the Bowmanites.

"She Couldn't Marry Three"

that "She Couldn't Marry Three, but in
the play of that name which Miss Lillian
Kennedy brings to the theatre to morrow
evening it is shown what a lot of trouble
may fall upon girl because she can only
marry one man at a time This most
charming little soubrette, Miss Kennedy,
has created in this play a new type of
maidenly sweetness. There is plenty of
excitement in the play, especially in the
final climax where the villain tries to tie
the hero to the railroad track upon which
an express train is approaching. A real
passenger locomotive steams upon the
stage in this scene and for realism the
tableau has never been beaten. OF course
Miss Kennedy's songs and dances add
greatly to the brightness of the play.

GREEsBoRo FEMALE COLLEGE,


Commencement Excrcises-Baccalau-
reate Sermon by Bishop Hargrove
The commencement exercises of
Greensboro Female College were inau-
gurated Wednesday, June 9th, by the
delivery of the baccalaureate sermon
by Bishop Hargroye, D. D., of the M.
e church South.
The Record says that it was 11:20
when the graduating class marched
into the chapel, headed by DR.. Reid,
president Of the institution. The
choir of d dozen voices sang vOlun-
tary, and the Bishop gave out hymn
1876, which was joined in by the entire
assemblage.
Bishop Hargrove took for his text
the 10Th verse of the 31st chapter of
Proverbs price is far above ru-
bies."
His theme was not only appropriate,
but an inspiring one and well did lie
handle it, taking occasion to set his
foot down very emphatically on wo-
man suffrage. lie went further and
said that any minister of the M. e.
church South who allowed a woman
to preach from his pulpit should be
disciplined and that severely.
There was one hearty ''amen" from
among the ministers, but only one.
This, we believe, came from Bishop
Fitzgerald, vino took occasion at the
close of the discourse to remark to the
speaker that he was very orthodox.
The sermon occupied fifty minutes
and was listened to with exceeding in
terest by the large congregation pres
ent. He spoke from manuscript and
adhered strictly to his notes, but this
detracted none from the impressive
ness of the discourse. His description
of the sphere of woman was superb
while his advice was like his text.
The services were concluded by
Bishop Fitzgerald, after Il vocal solo
by Mrs. Merrimon, with violin DBL
cato. She sang "The Holy City" and
rendered it beautifully, as all can tes
tify who have heard her sweet, pure
tones. Bishop Fitzgerald delivered
the annual address last night.
Hon. Hoke Smith, Secretary of the
Interior, was also present and made a

A WAR TIME INCIDENT.
The Great Cotton Fire at High Point
S oneman'S Men.

Several days ago THE SENTINEL
printed news item to the effect that
Representative Alexander, of this
State, had introduced a bill asking
Congress to pay Mr.. j. Edwards, Of
High Point, S14, 600 for cotton burned
there during the war by Stoneman's
men. In speaking of the fire, etc, the
Enterprise says:
We have made inquiries about the
incident and gather the following: In
April 1865, the very day that Lee sur
rendered some of Stoneman's men
whose headquarters were at Winston,
came daShiDg down the road on horse
back about 100 strong. At that time
there were $500 bales of cotton here,
one pile in the field where Mr.. Ham
ner's house now stands, another where
Mr.. Perry's store now is the balance
of it piled ceiling high in large
| warehouse at Smiths drugstore site.
The men rode straight up to this cot
ton and set fire to it. The old folks
say it made an awful looking blaze
They did not stop here but set fire to

of this was burning at once. OF

ROMANCE IN WESTERN LIFE
Escaped From an Asylum to Marry a
Lover of Childhood Days.

Lover of Childhood Days.
SAN FRANCISCO, June Ga strange
romance comes from the State asylum
at Agnews. Nearly year ago a
bright appearing young woman giving
her name as Mrs. Evelyn Leonore Bal
lou Mills-Evans was arrested here for
swindling fashionable boarding-houses
and nurse who had trusted her. She
was twice taken before the Board of
Lunacy and pronounced sane. a police
magistrate then pronounced her guilty
of the crime charged and sentenced
her to six months in the house of cor
recti0n. Then it transpired that the
woman had wealthy brother in Sac
ramentO and another influential broth
er in New York, who is connected
with the great house of Tiffany.
They promptly interceded, had her
pronounced insane, and she was re-
moved from prison to the Agncws
asylum.
There she strangely encountered an
acquaintance Of her girlhood, j. A.
Beardslcy, who was employed as an
attendant at the institution. Now
Beardsley and Mrs. Mills Evans are
both missing from the asylum One
resigned his position and the other es-
capped. 1t transpires, toe, that the
woman has secured a divorce from her
second husband, d mechanic named
Evans, whom she married in San
francisco, and that she is now the
wife of J. A. Beardsley. Their pres
ent whereabouts are unknown.

A Remarkable Case Found in Durham
County.
From the Durham Sum-

From the Durham Sun.
About four miles north of Durham
lives colored woman, named Penny
Weaver, aged 1O3 years, and her daugh-
ter, Lindy Weaver, aged 10 years.
They are old time darkies and live
near the Lynchburg s. Durham rail-
road.
Outside of their ages the most re-
markable thing in connection with
their lives is their mode of living.
They own little tract of land, upon
| which is a two room hJuse. Some
years ago they made division of the
property. Neither one being able to
build another house, they divided
the property by drawing an imaginary
| line through the house, from one
gable end to the other and each one
took her side of the house, which is
. occupied and kept just as if there
| were two houses, each attending tt
her own side and living as two sepa

one end, and each one uses he
respective side of the fire place
They live happily, as no broils or dis
turbances have been known between
them for many years Our informan
has visited the place, talked witt
them and Youches for the truthful
ness of their mode of living.

THE WEATHER FOR JUNE.
As Prophesid by Rev Ira II. Hicks, of
Missouri.

| mlSSOuf1.
| From Word and Works1
Fair weather will prevail in most
parts of the continent at the openins
j, of June. A'storm period, together witt
the new moon, is central on the 3rd
| The conjunction of Jupiter and Nep
| tune with each other, as well as the
| earth and moon, all being on line
with the sun, brings to bear a combi-
nation Of rare occurrence, and which,
no doubt, will affect in perceptible
way the general meteorology of our
glCbe. A warm wave of much severi-
ty will pass oyer the country from
about the End to 9Th, the center of
dangerous storm disturbances being
on the 3rd, 4th and 5th. There are
marked indications of earthquake
perturbaUions on and about these
same dates. A wave of cooler air
from the polar regions will flow in
after the distur Dances and dominate
the weather for several days. On and
touching the 9th and 10th it will grow
very warm again, and series of rains
and storms will set in. with many
prospects of continuing indefinitely
This is the entrance of the summer
solstice, and showery, stormy weather,
with unusual displays Of lightning
may be expected until the solStice pc.
riod is passed.
A storm period is central on the
14th, an equinox of Mercury is central
on the 10th, and the full moon is on
the 18th, al within a few days after
the earth'S turning point on the 2lst.
Therefore many startling electrical
storms will be natural from about the
l4th, until after the reactionary dis
turbances due normally on the Goth
and 2Ist A peculiar and often sur
prising feature Of these solstice
storms, is the tendency of clouds to
whirl into retrogade motion, storms
rections, and drenchiBg the earth
with unlooked-for downpours. This
solstice period well within the Jupiter
period very heavy rains and local
clOudbursts will be most natural
A bout the 22nd to 25th much cooler
weather may be expected, with d
probable cessation of rains and storm.
The last June storm period is from
the Goth to 10Th, during which time a
wave OF intense warmth will pass over
this country, as we'll as other parts of
the globe, and many atmospheric and
electrical disturbances may be expect
ed about the 26th to 10Th. The
Venus equinox, central on July 11th,
promises rain for the most of the
month; but we believe the tendency
will be to local cloudburst, with dry
ness covering many wide districts of
the country. AS precautionary
measure, we urge all our readers to
make all possible provisions for re-
tanning in ciSternS and ponds all the
water possible, during the rains in
June and the first half of July. In
cases OF late crops give your soil
thorough and repeated plowing as
soon as possible after rains. Never
let it bake, especially in July.
