its performance has been sent over:
Kissing and snorting, 1t slid along
the tram for distance,of one hundred
feet, when, having reached the end of
the rails, instead of lifting It's wings
and floating gracefully across the har-
Dor, It bumped against the rocks and
toppled over on to the beach, part of

set them on fire and in few moments

chiDery were all that remained Of this
production of inventive genius. The

During the last five years the price Of
amber is said to have been reduced in
America by at least two-thirds, The
reason for this seems to be found in the
fact that new process Of melting
amber and molding 1t into shape has
been adopted, where before 1t was cut
from solid mass. The nodded amber
Is stated to be less brittle and far more
durable than the cut amber, and in
consequence Is in greater demand. By
the new process, 1t is claimed, the
amber can be nodded into any form and
there Is no waste.

and John ID. Gordon, eide of the Presby-
terrain Church at Gerardstown, Berkeley
county, against the session of that church,
which is represented in the case by DR.. John
B. Wiley, clerk of the session. The case
has for two years embarrassed the session If
the pre-bvtery and resulted in a division of
the church a. Gerardstown and the resigna
ton of the pastor, Rev. E. L. Wilson, now
of Waterford, Loudoun county, Va. For
what they deemed sufficient cause the SEES
sion of the church dismissed Messrs. Nc
Kown and Gordon from their eldership in
the church aud those gentlemen appealed
their case to the presbytery at its session
last wear and it was continued until the ses-
sion this year. After heated discussions the
presbytery sustained the action of the ses
sion, only three votes being cast for the APP
p%ellants. Rev. J. Harry Moore, of Keyser,
was counsel for the appellants, and Rev. DR..
F. NJ. Woods, of Martinsburg, represented
the defendants.

Sunday by Rev. j. Harry Moore, Rev. Dr..
James R Graham and Rev. DR.. Hopkins.
Every church in the presbytery was rep
resented by its ministers, and the represen-
tation by delegates was unusually large.
The presbytery adjourned Saturday to
meet in Martinsburg in April. Reports
from the churches within the bounds Of the
presbytery showed a substantial growth
There are now forty. six churches and it i
expected that several new charges will be
