The Salvation Army Schism.

churched masses under the Influence Of the
truths of religion mast be deplured. II Is in
this vast field that the Salvation Army
has been specially successful. and however
much its success in some localities may DE
ascribabe to the personal popularity of GER
tain leaders. there can bc little doubt that
the systematic methods and the disciplinary
policy of the organization have had much
10 do with the advancement OF its work.
The growth OF the Salvation Army has
been phenomenal in the domain OF religious
organizations, and it can he attributed
to no other cause than its close affiliatton
with those classes that are not ordinarily
reached by pulpit or church influences. 1t
may be that any schsm resulting from the
present difficulty may not affect perma-
nently the work in which the army is en-
gagged. Ii is possible that two organizations
working practically upon the sane lines
may accomplish even more than the one did,
but nevertheless at first the progress and
achievements OF each will be materially
abridged.

NO WITNESS FEES PAID.
Judge Miller's Action in Response I
q LRWyer'S Cnusual Cha ruea

During the trial of Cassie Catlett, alias
Cassie Thomas. in Judge Miller's police
court this morning. Attorney Ricks, who
defended the prisoner. paid his regards in
rather lprcible language to flock of col
ored witnesses, who appeared against his
client.
The woman was charged with the Ia rceny
of two pairs OF pantsfrOm Richard williams,
colored. She was also charged with de-
Stroying several tin drinking cups while in
her cell at the police station and throwing
the contents OF the vessels into the face OF
policemen, who had occasion to pass her
cell.
Lawyer Kicks contcnded that the larceny
case was u put up job on the part of the
prosecuting witnesses. in order to get wit
ness fees. and infimated that there were
many persons in this city who would be will
ing to perjure their souls in order to get
the paltry 81 .25 paid by the government to
witnesses in United States cases.
While Richard Williams, owner of the
pants. was on the witness stand. Kicks said
to him rather hOtly-
"You know .you are here simply to get
a witness fee. ThtS woman never stole any
thing from you. When did you ever have
pair of pants worth $2?'
Il had several pairs before you was sOt
free" replied the witness
"They were striped pants" returned the
lawyer. "YOu have worn more striped
goods than any other kind"
Addressing . female witness, Attorney
sNhse do'you works.

The industrial branches invite the col

So far as the public is aware. the mail car
was put ON the Avenue line without any
body having asked for it, and it is thought
that the need OF it was not nearly as urgent
as the establishment OF such service for the
suburban sections already named.
When Postmaster willctt was asked some
time ago when service on suburban street
railway lines would be established he re-
piled that it would come as soon as the
people Immediately interested asked for
it. The people have asked, hut the mail
cars are Still, absent. and the people in
the suburbs are wondering when it will be
their turn. Perhaps Gen. Nelson can tell
them.

THE TIMES WILL SUSPEND-ON
THESE CONDITIONS.

Our beloved contemporary. the Evening
Star, continues to publish its stere"typed
claim of having the largest circulation, in
spite of sworn contradictory statements.
1t also sometimes seems Us if even the fig
uIcs in its own much worn claim were never
changed, inasnuch as they are made TO
show as large circulation on stormy, IN
clement days as in fair and pleasant
weather, Notwithstanding the fact that
everybody knows there is then not so great
u demand for newspapers.
There are other things besides the news
columns and circulation statements of the
Star that are peculiar, and one of them is
