INDIAN sEALERs COMPLAIN.
They Say Our Patrol sent Then North On
q wild Goose Chase.

PORT TowNTESD. Wash, Oct. 6.-The Indian
sealing schooners Felitz Deehkts and COlumbi
returned from Behring Sea yesterday. The
Deehkts took l.O33 and the Columbia 4o5 seal
skins. The poor catch OF the latter is attributed
10 the fact that she went too far north, acting
on the advice Of one Of the patrol onicers, who
asserted that they would find seals In the higher
latitude In enormous herds, Instead they
found very few. and tho Indians freely assert
that they were sent on a wild goose chase for
the purpose OF giving the white sealers a better
chance.
The Indians ascribe the enormous catch OF the
British schoOners 10 the grounding of the United
States war chip Adams. She went ashore
in q dense fog and was compelled to fire
several hundred signal shots from her big
guns before the Yorktown heard and came
to her assistance. Thu hring scared the
seals from the rookeries, and the schOoners
that happened 20 be In the vicinity reaped a
less than half a day, The Alasks C9mmerciai
Company that has leased the islands did not
take anywhere the number that the contract
with the Government calls for, and they are
threatening TO sue the Government for heavy
damages.

THE FIRST IN AMERICA.
Presbyterian TO Celebrate Their OrgaAi
zAtion Here abO Years AGO.

- hAo
Although OF Puritanical origin. the society
that formed what Is now known as Christ's First
Presbyterian Church. in the village Of Hemp
stead, L. l.. is looked upon as the founder of
Presbyterianism in America, and next week
Presbyterians will devote three days 10 celebrat-
ing the 250th anniversary of the society's organ
ization. The exercises will begin on Sunday
next and will continue until Tuesday night.
They will be held in the church. in Fulton
street, Hampstead. Many prominent clergymen
from distant parts will be present to take part
In the ceremonies.
The committee in charge OF the celebration
are the Rev. Frank Melville Kerr. pastor OF the
church, and Elders J. Edward Davidson, Luke
Fleet. Charles II. Ludlum, Percy b. Bromheld,
William +. Conklin. and Thomas I. Gilbert.
On Sunday morning there will be a historical
address by the pastor. On Monday the visiting
pastors will be entertained. Tuesday. the con-
GLIDING day Of the ceremonies, will be devoted
70 the Christian Endeavor societies.
In 1914 a sturdy band OF about fifty pioneers
headed by the Rev. Richard Denton. a Preshy-
England. purchased from the Dutch Govern
mcnt. then In control, OF Long Island. a plot OF
poses. According 20 the original deed, which Is
ON record. the society was formed Tor the pnr;;
bnS tho Site ScaSired then the hrst Presbyterian
church In America was erected.
II was tWenty-fOur Teet square, ana TOT twenty
years IL served the double purpose OF a church
and meeting house. IL stood In Fulton and
Franklin streets. The site Is now occupied 5y
Robert A. SeAbury's residence, Finally the
structure was erected south OF the present Epis-
copal church. Front street now runs through
where the second church stood. This was in
1873.
When England took possession Of Long Island
all the churches and church property was
turned over 70 the Church Of England. and for
a time the Presbyterians found themselves
without a place OF worship, Services were held
IN different houses OF the little flock. Many OF
the Presbyterians became members OF the Epts-
cOpal Church, WHICH Is attended BY their de
scendants to-day. In 1892, thirty-eight years
after the seizure Of the church property, the
Presbyterians got together and erected a small
church building near the site OF the present
structure in Fulton street. Here the Rev.
Abraham Keteltas preached until the breaking
out OF the Revolution. when the place was APP
propriated by the British soldiers, who used IL
as q stable.
Al the close Of the war services were resumed
In the church, and continued until 1908, when
the buildtRg Was destroyed by hre. In 1888
new church was put up and q regular pastor
the first In l22 years, was Installed. The con-
RregatiOn increased. In 1874 the old church
became too small To accommodate the members,
and the present STRUCTURE was built and the OLD
church was moves aud turned into = parsonage.
