Mount Hopc-Andale Church Fight Now on
in the District Court.
The Andale church fight in which
Ella NJ. Anderson and Kate Johnson
are plaintiffs and ]. II. Cornwall, Will
lam Little and others, and the Chris
tan church of Mt. Hope are defend
ants, is now on trial in Judge Reeds
court.
Judge Wall represents the plaintiffs
and Sam Amidon the defendants. The
defense claimed that every member of
the church at Andale except one had
signed a petition to have the church
moved over to Mt. Hope. The plain
tiffs have set UP the claim that the
church was built by donations of the
people Of Andale, and that 1t ought to
remain there.
Mr.. Cornwall is secreatry of the
AndaIe Christian organization and
one of the parties that favors the NOV
ing of the church as well as defend
ent in the case.
The Christian church takes the New
Testament for their guide and have no
written confession of faith. Mr.. Corn
wall claimed that one man was not any
longer member of the Andaie church
because he had moved to Oklahoma.
Judge Wall wanted the witness to tell
how the man got out of the church ami
whether the witness could show by the
new testament tHdl Hidt CtdSeu
be a member of the church when he
moved to Oklahoma. He could not
show it but said when a member ceased
to attend his name was dropped from
the list Of members.
The people OF Andale and Mt. Hope
are much interested in the result of the
trial, and a number of witnesses will
be examined. Judge Reed sometime
ago granted a temporary injunction,
and this trial it to determine whether
the injunction shall be dissolved or re-
main permanent.

WINGED that Burk told the truth
John Burk is a young man, twenty
four years of age, who is employed by
J Superintendent Coville to work at the
county farm and is said to be an indus
| trious, well behaved young man.
Sunday morning between nine and
ten o'clock he started to come from the
poor farm on horseback to attend
/ church.
When he arrived at the lower CHS
holm creek bridge two men came up
from the creek and asked him where
he was going. Burk objected to such
an abrupt queStionwhen one of the
men caught the horses bride while the
other dragged him from the horse.
He was thrown to the ground and
what money he had in his pockets, a lit
tie over five dollars was taken. The
men then started dragging him toward
the creek and Burk asked his captors
what they We're going to do with him,
he was cody informed that they were
going to put him under the ice.
Burk yelled but the two men went
| all the faster and one of them held
his hand over the now thoroughly
alarmed mans mouth TO prevent his
| further giving any alarm.
When the robbers had Burk on the ice
| they stamped on the edge of an opening
| and tried to make it anger but failed
and soused the unfortunate man in
/ feet foremost. The water only came up
to his waist and the two robbers tried
/ to crowd him down and push him under
| the ice but Burk pSread out his arms
| and made a desperate struggle Tor his
life. The robbers became alarmed and
fled and Burk crawled out nearly fro

ing that Burk'S horse had run OFF to-

somebody would investigate and this
caused them to hurry away without
accomplishing their purpose.
This proved correct for Burk had got

when he met two boys by the name OF
Bennett, who live on place adjoining
the poor farm, coming toward him lead

of the neighbors of the occurrance

Che Day Near When Electric Energy WIN

There Is no subject which at present
more strongly excites the interest Of
practical men than the problems con-
nected with the generation and trans
mission Of mechanical power. Some
months ago it was suggested that we
were near the end Of the age of steam,
and at the beginning Of the age of cleo
tricity. That statement was accom-
panied by some remarks bearing on
the crude and wasteful methods OF
power conversion exemplifed in the
steam engine. The attentive reader OF
scientific contributions TO the period
8al literature of both hemispheres will
end no thought so frequently repeated
ss this,-that the most vital of economic
problems is how to develop and trans
nit mechanical energy with the mini
mum of loss A writer in the current
number of the Nineteenth Century
makes the broad statement that great

of steam power on modern life and
civilization. compared with the posi-
bllities of electric energy as the
method Of applying and transmitting

evidently been able to reach the city as
Burk said the men ran of up the creek
and they were not captured
The officers in the city were notified
of the robbery and thorough search
is being made for the robbers, but UP 10
this morning no arrests have been made
Burk describes the men who robbed
him and says he had good chance
to look at them.
He described one as being nearly SIX
feet tall. dark complexion and dark
moustache He wore a cap and faded
coat of dark corded material and Jeans
trousers The man appeared to be
about thirty-five years old while his
companion was Of light complexion ana
wore a light gray suit and narrow orin
soft hat and was not over five feet SIX
inches high.
MIR. Covil. superintendent of the poor
farm. has no doubt whatever that MIR.
Ryrk told a straight story. He says
that when Burk arrived at the poor
farm that he was about chilled TO death
and that he was scarcely able TO come
back and assist in the search Tor the
robbers.
MIR. Covil further stated to reporter
for the Eagle yesterday That lie hau

had seen two very suspicious cherac-
tors near the bridge about week ago.
Mr. Covil saws that Mr.. Kelly without
knowing how Burk had described the
robbers gave the same description lden-

clothing. Mr.. Covil says there Is no
doubt but that Burk was robbed.
