THE REV MYSTERY.
One of the Aii-sing Cornell Students Class
 mates Talks.

ITHACA, N. Y, Nov. I2-Tho mystery attending the disappearance of Frederick G. Kew. the Cornell university student who never returned from a long walk on Oc.. ,. is the absorbing topic of con versation in Ithaca. Tho reports that have been published alleging that it is de- finitoly known that he is dead are con- tradicted by the police. Your correspond ent called upon the gentleman who is conducting the investigation in the case in the absence Of Mir. F.. B Kew, who is now in Buffalo. Tho student refused to have his name used. but spoke as follows:
 II have authority in the case and the confidence of MriHSew and would know of any developments. have n dispatch from Mir. Row, wlio denies being respun- sible for interviews credited to him. We have suspicious, of course. but they are ns yet merely suspicious. Frod's parents both believe him tn he dead. So do l. From what l know If his character I be- licve that he never would knowingly leave his parents in uncertainty in the matter.
 II rememhs C. of his writing homo that he was going to take a long walk this fall before he settled down to hard work. for you know he had great deal of back study to make up due to his being out of the university during the winter and spring terms of last year. No, he was not n moody fellow. Ho was always bright and cheerful and had hopes of one day going to Berlin to perfect his education.
 You can say that l know that there was never any reward as high as S1, GOO offered for the recovery of his body. Of course we arc as much in tho dark as tho public. but we hope in time to find def. nite facts in regard to his death.'
 Some attention bns been paid to the class of men laboring at south Danby, eight miles from here. and where Kew is supposed to have wended his way. They work by the month for mero pittance. It is argued that should Rows body be anywhere around that part of the coun- try it would have been found long be- fore this in all probability because of the magnitude of the reward in their eyes On the other hand, they arc an unsavory lot, and cases of lawlessness arc not In frequent among them.

WILL BURN INCENSE.
Very Radical Innovation of n Young EpIs
 copalian Minister.

KINGSTON, \. Y, Nov. 12.-It will bc a radical innovation indeed for the Episco- palian parish of St. Johns in this city to witness the swinging of tho censer in the sanctuary on the first Sunday in Ad- vent. Such Is tho proclamation made here by Rev. Lewis T. Watson, the young rector who has boon leading the parish into high ritualism for some time past with rapid strides.
 His address yesterday was a bold do fense of the burning of incense in church worship as a divine command. He said the vestry was pledged to support him in this last point of ritualism, and he proposed to stand on it as tho Rock of Ages, no matter who or how many oppos- ed him, knowing 1t to be Gods truth and in accordance with church law. So on the first Sunday of December. at what he calls high mass, the incense offering will be inaugurated The older and more in- fiuential members of the parish declared themselves as being strongly opposed to all ritualistic ceremony and doctrine, ana many of those have alresdy left the church. but the younger element and oss peoialiy the women afo with the rector.

A Peoples Victory

THE ELECTION WAS A SECOND Declaration of Independence of cyclonic proportions The greatest people on earth, on the eve of the twentieth century, de- clared themselves SUPREME not by the bullet, but by the intelligent use of the ballot.
 Will our statesmen heed the warning: Business first, party afterwards, Is the watchword of the masses The people have longer memories than We had given them credit for. The masses went over to the Republican party because they had no place else to go. Two years ago they ''TURNED THE RASCALS OUT" and now they have turned them in again Have these two years out in the cold taught them anything? An outraged peO- pie Is anIXously waiting for an answer. When the people were looking for relief Congress WAS deaf to their cries. When representative of the Waterbury Furniture Go spoke on the green to n thousand of the unemployed. they shouted that 'Soue day they will have revenge!" We spoke that day from personal experience. because We had just worn ont four paIrs of shoes travelling over the United States to borrow money enough to save ourselves from ruin and disaster. We had about four thousand customers to carry along. many of whom had money. but could not get It 10 pay tnelr Dllls. we ulu Hol lIOuble these people only as little We possibly could, and today they are heaping bene- dictious or our heads for the patience We had After hunting the country over for money, without success We returned to Waterbury. and the best men in the city loaned us all that We needed. They thought that the Waterbury Furniture Company should not be allowed to suffer as they had knocked the devil out of high prices and were instrumental in bringing their markets Of the East and the West to- gether. A great concern like the Water bury Furniture Company Is something which the people could not afford to lose. The success We have met with since our removal to East Main street amply repays us for the great efforts We have made
 We would request the teachers of the schools to firing in their pupils to our mammoth establishment and show them the high art to which Furniture. Carpets, Crocksry. Stoves. Ranges. etc, have reached. We furnish the house com complete. so that the entire bill of goods can be obtained at one store. We shall continue to remain the peoples humble servants,

CHURCH SOLD.
The &. c. Burdick Co. Will Erect
$4,000 Flats Where the Pres
byterian Church Now Is.

The trustees of the Presbyterian
church have sold the present church
building and lot, at the corner Of
Broad and Hickory streets, to the e.
G. Burdick Co. The consideration is
$4,000, and possession is to be given
July lst. The property goes as a part
payment on the new church, to the
contractors. The law requires that
there shall be notice given to the
congregation four Sundays, and that
thereafter a meeting shall be held to
ratify the sale. The first announce
ment was made yesterday, and May
21st was set as the time of the meeting.
The lecture room of the new church
is to be finished this season, but the
church may have to find other quar-
tiers for while until this can be done.
The e. G. Burdick Co. intend to tear
down the church structure and fill the
entire lot with large tenement
house or flats. The building'wil be
three stories high, handsome archi-
tecturally, built Of brick, steam
heated, and to have all modern i'm
provements 1t will face both streets,
and will contain eighteen residences,
or suits of rooms separate from the
rest. Each fiat will contain rooms on
three stories. The building will cost
$4,000, and will fill long felt want
There is no question that the apart
ments will rent readily and will return
larger dividend than any other in
yeStment that could be made
The E. G. Burdick Co. is strong
financially, land we are pleased to know
that it has secured the property, as it
will be improved as it ought to be.
Work will begin on the rear of the lot
as soon as the contract is ratified, and
the building will be done up to the
church building by July 1st.
The trustees of the Presbyterian
church reserve the pews and interior
fixtures and furnishings. They have
made an advantageous sale, and are
deserving of credit. The option held
by Mr.. Morley has expired for several
days, and he failed to accept the terms
of the church.
