MENNONITE CHURCH.

church on account Of some new GUS
toms which part of the congregation
wished to support and part did not.
The leaders of one faction are Jacob
Swartz and his son and Jacob Haw-
baker, and of the other is Joseph
Swartz. One Of the customs which has
occasioned a great deal of trouble
among them is their burial service.
The old faction always had an ordl-
nary burial service. but the new faction
claims that part of their custom is not
right and insists that the dead should
be buried few hours after death and
wheat planted over their body. David
c. Neusbaum died a few weeks ago OF
consumption, and that same night was
thrown into rough box, scarcely three
feet in length, and buried in his own
cornheld. A woman of the same faction
died shortly afterward and received the
same treatment, not even her friends
being in attendance.
This so angered some of their neigh
bors Of other denominations that their
actions were reported TO the grand jury
a few weeks ago. That body returned
several indictments against them, and
there is great interest manifested here
as TO what will be the effect on this
people If conviction occurs.
The Amish do not believe in paving
fines or in dealing in court affairs in
any manner. When the examination
was going on before the grand jury con-
corning Neusbaum Daniel Neusbaum. n
brother of the dead man, and a man
by the name of Jacob Halfin met joseph
Hendricks, one of the grand Jurors. and
began explaining the burial part of
their religion, whereupon Hendricks
became angry and struck both of them.
Outside parties interfered and had
Hendricks arrested. He pleaded guilty
paid his fine, and promptly had the two.
Amish men arrested for provoke. They
were found guilty and fined. Halfn
rather than go to Jail or have his stock
attached, paid his fine and was imme-
diately put out of the church. Mems
baum, however, who is worth at least
$4,000. refused to pay and is now in
jail. He told the officers that they could
take any of his stock to pay 1t. but he
could not give them the money for 9,
was against the rule of God and of Their
church.
Another peculiar idea of this neon,o
is that the devils spirit is concentrated
in anything that revolves. They there
fore will not have any of the improved
farming machinery of to-day: no rean-
ers, mowers or threshers. They use tho
old-fashioned cradles, scythes and rakes
and will haul their grain fifty miles IN
thresher run by horse power.
They all marry very young The
weddings are announced in their church
services about two weeks before the dav
set for marriage. There is never n
license applied for from the county
clerk, as they do not think they should
have license from anyone other than
God. Weddings always take place on
Thursday morning and the services last
from o'clock to IL. During the SER
vices the visitors continually chant an
old hymn.
Or late years 1t has become customary
among them to marry cousins or other
close relatives. The first wedding of
this kind took place about three wears
ago, the contracting parties being Miss
Fanny Eicher and Jacob Halfinstine.

first thought until one goes on a hunt
ing expedition through the shops in
search of one and finds the prices rang
ing from $50 to SIS for the cheapest.
Some very fetching cloth coats are
being put up for sale in a few Of the
most exclusive shops, mostly Of light,
pale tan, in heavy melton, with trim
mings OF Russian sable, silver fox or
beaver. They are in the REFER form
and are extremely short, with cute lit
tie ripples at the back, made so stiff
that flattening is impossible. There is
a broad collar of the sable and mar
row facing of the same all down the
front, giving 1t the effect of being fur
lined. A coat Of this sort cannot be
had for less than $40, but they are well
worth the price, because they do look
so very easy and so very becoming

Amish. There Is large settlement OF
these people in Adams county, thrifty,
honest and exclusive, but for the years
during which they have been in the
state they have violated the laws undis-
turbed.
These violations are due largely TO
the ignorance of the culprits, If they can
be so classified, and not to any desire or
intention to get into any conflict with
the authorities. Among the laws brok-
en- is that regulating marriage. The
Amish have not only failed TO obey the
law regarding license and registry
but have solemnized marriages between
couples related to each other within the
prohibited degrees of consanguinity.
In tact, all of the counts in the indict-
ments are based on offenses repugnant
TO the spirit of the laws, but not prop
eriy designated as crimes in themselves.
The marriages between relatives have
been limited to cousins german.
These strange people have a history
interesting from the origin to the pres
ent day. They came TO this country to
escape the persecution which they suf-
Tered. Now, ii seems that they have
not found the country where they can
worship God as they wish, for in doing
so they violate the laws which have
Deen passed for the control of the fam
lily relations and the good OF society.
The sect recognizes no law but that
OF the Deity, and it is certain will make
no defense to the charges, believing that
their sufferings are ordered OF God and
must be borne with patience and resig-
nation.
These people belong to the sect known
as Mennonites, this particular division
being known as the Defenseless Amish.
They are one of the twelve branches OF
Mennonites. The Mennonites are
body of evangelical Christians who, in
relation TO the constitution of the
church. the baptism, the taking of
oaths, church discipline and bearing OF
arms. are either entirely or almost in
harmony with Memo Simmons, after
whom they are named.
The sect arose, so far as can be as
certained, among the inhabitants of the
mountains of Switzerland in the early

Sad Mistake by a Short-sightcd Bishop
La England.
From the st. James Budget: There is
q hat story in which a well-known
bishop and lately deceased marquis
played leading parts. The marquis,
who married a Gaiety chorus girl, and.
generally speaking lived up TO the high
standard of his marriage life, was ac-
customed to wear a particular style OF
hat, shorter than that favored by most
men. One day he went into his hat
nfker's in Piccadilly and asked for a
new one 10 be made. The shopwalker
took the hat and walked down to the
far end of the shop TO give the requisite
Instructions, leaving the hatless mar
quis standing in the shop. At this mo-
ment there entered the shortsighted
bishop of Y, also in want of new head
gear. He saw only a small man, who
might have passed for a shopkeeper,
standing staring at him. So he took his
peculiar hat off his head and went up
II him. do you think, my good man."
he said, persuasively that you have a
