REV. O. B. sIMONTON AND THE
METHODISTS.

Z. Rev. j. Fl. Corey, Presiding Elder of
the Lewiston District, writes to Zion g
Herald as follows concerning the Rev. c.
B. Simonton, who recently withdrew
from the Methodist church because of q
change in his belief:
The preacher in charge (of Empire and
Minot), Rev. @. B. Simonton, recently
surprised his congregation by announcing
that he had changed his belief and could
no longer conscientiously occupy Meth
odist pulpit. A few days later the Port
land PRESS published long letter from
Mr.. Simonton explaining his sudden
change Of belief. An editorial in the
same issue speaks Of him as prominent
member of the Maine Conference.
Strange, is it not. how suddenly man
becomes prominent when he ceases to be
evangelical! Mr. Simonton has been
preaching less than three years is almost
stranger in the Conference, was never a
member of the Conference nor proba-
TONER Unlike some others, more promi-
nent than he, he has the good sense and
honor to promptly withdraw from our
church and ministry on finding himself
no longer In agreement with u.s. 1t is
reported that the Univerealists have,
already made him a Universalist minis
ter.

GAME DIDN'T WORK.
Flim-Flam Operator at Work in Bidd.-
ford.
(Biddeford Journal.)

0luu6lOEu JOuiAoi.J
Biddeford had another visit last night
from men supposed to be professional film
Hammers, but as far as the police can learn
only one attempt WAS made to work the
game in this city. This was at E. L.
Cowan's store. The "ohief operator" who
was of . medium size and dressed in
black clothes, stepped into Cowan's store
q little after six o'clock and Benjamin
Cowan waited upon him. The man asked
for five cent piece of tobacco and as he
made known the kind he liked best, Ben
out 1t off from one of the long plugs, and
passed 1t to him.
The man for payment laid down two
dollar bill. The clerk picked it up, and
putting it in the money drawer, COM
menced to count out 81. 95 in change. 1t
was in small coins and while the clerk
was figuring 1t out the finn fam man
kept up running conversation. After
Cowan had laid the change ON the show
case the man picked tho money up and
said:
"Oh, made mistake, I did not know
I had a five cent piece in my pocket.
Get me back my two dollar bill and take
this five cents for the tobacco
The film fam man thereupon threw
down a i've cent piece which he took
from tho change handed him by Ben, and
the latter was about to hand back the bill
when the true inwardness of the scheme
occurred to him and he demanded the
rest of the change before he let the bill
go.
"No, guess I don't want the bill, :"
said the man, seeing that Cowan was on
to his little game, "as shall want to use
tho change" He then went out and an
other stranger who was waiting for him
across the street, Joined him and they
proceeded down toward the yard.
Nothing was said to the police until
half an hour afterwards when Officer
Cullinan was notified. He made known
the facts of the case to Deputy Marshal
Mogan, and the latter who had seen two
men answering the description going
down Main street, made q search of the
yard. But they had lots of time to get
away. Officer Hayes went to Saco and
looked in all the stores, but they were no.
where to be seen.
Deputy Marshal Mogan is sure that the
police could have captured the men if
they had been notified right after the men
loft the store. There are four officers on
the street besides officer Roderick at the
police station. Again the deputy marshal
sava tho c1ark aho11Jd have folIouod Tho
man until he met an officer and there
would have been little trouble in finding
out whether the men were crooks or not.
1t was the opinion of some that the
men were sailors from one of the schoon-
ers at the wharf.
A man called at the news stand at the
corner of Main and Laconnia streets last
night, but was unsuccessful in doing
crooked work, as the clerk, Miss Daig-
neaut, was suspicious of him and refused
to change the bill.

Average cost of each patient per week
5000.
The cost of maintaining the paying
patients, 2417 II weeks at $10.62 was
$25, 6SS. 0S. There was received from pa
tients for board 1928. 505.65. For free
patients there was expended s22, 045.9O.
A comparison of these statistics with
those of last year shows some gratifying
results. The number Of admissions is
larger than ever before and the daily
average is larger than that of last year,
by 800. Notwithstanding this increase
the total cost of maintenance Is $20oS. 48
less than last year.
1t should also be noticed that the
amount of relief to free patients has been
larger than ever before, being more than
81 per cent greater than last year. But
the number of applications for free beds
is also increasing more rapidly than our
means of affording the needed relief.
The hospital is beginning to feel the
need of the upper ward In the new
pavilion. 1t should be understood that
with our present number of nurses. we
are unable to use that ward, and we have
now as many nurses as we can possibly
accommodate with our present facilities.
The need of another building for a
nurses dormitory is becoming very ur-
gent. When we have such q building,
quite large number of rooms which
were intended for patients but which are
now occupied by nurses, will be available
We could also increase the number OF
nurses SO that we could utilize that ward
when needed. There have been times
when the wards in presentssuse and.ali the
private rooms have been full and nave
had list of as many as twenty appl1-
cants for admission who. were waiting for
vacancies.
q Such q building would also be great
benefit to the training school. The proper
discipline could be maintained and the
health and comfort of the nurses could be
improved which would add to their ell
cheney. The school was never in better
co ndition than it is at present. The
character of the pupils and their devotion
to their work are Of q high order of excel
ience. The report Of the superintendent
OF nurses, which enclose, will give you
the details Of the work Of the school.

THE OYSTER INDUSTRY.
Gratest Day in Receipts and Shipments
in This Market.
(Newbern Journal.)

A visit to the Middle street dock, yes
terday, showed forest of masts belong
ing to the oyster schooners, which
crowded the docks. There were over
thirty schooners among the arrivals, and
there was business all day and part of
last night for those in the trade.
There were more oysters afioat here
to-day than upon any previous day in the
history of this place." said Mr.. Geo. N.
Ives, last night.
''In our business it is a record breaker,
for to-day we have had 6S7 gallons of
oysters opened, and have shipped S4
gallons. To give you some idea of this
amount, | will say the quantity we
shipped represents over four and one
quarter tons in weight"
Eve have had 60 shuckers busy to-day,
besides ten other men engaged in and
about the building"
"Now as to the money paid to the
shuckers, paid to two men, $2.75, each,
to two others, $3.50 each, and thirteen
have received from $500 to $3.50 each.
Our force Of shuckers have averaged to-
day S1.40 each, which shows what the
shuckers have done. It is good money
to them, but it will most Of it be soon
spent foolishly."

LEADS TO SOCIAL FUSION.
There is But One Safe Way and That
is for White Men to Stand Together.
(Kinston Free Press.)

A correspondent to Senator Buffers
misnamed newspaper (The Caucasian
ahuSes The News and Observer for pub
fishing and commenting about negro
arresting aq white man in Wake county.
The CORE pondent says the white man
IS a bad white man and associated with
negroes, and seems to argue from this
that it is a sight unworthy of criticism
10 see white men arrested by negro Off
GERS, provided the white men are bad
white men and associate with negroes.
If there were only bad white men in
the State, such as fuse and associate
with negroes, such instances might be
allowed to pass without condemnation,
but the thing may lead to the arrest by
negro officers of white men who do not
associate with negroes. The safest way
is for the true white men in North
Carolina, who favor white supremacy,
to come together and rid the State of
the had black and tan rule we now
have.
Another way to look at this thing
is that the success of such political
fusion of blacks and some whites has

WHY ORANGES ARE HIGH.
Christmas Shoppers Have to Pay Trbi
ute to Dingley.

Christmas Shoppers Have to Pay Trbi-
ute to Dingley.
Christmas shoppers have been asking
why oranges are so much higher than
last Christmas. McKinleyism put them
up. Yesterdays Wilmington Messen-
ger says:
1.-The people Of Wilmington who want
oranges for Christmas have a practical
illustration of the Dingley bill. Under
the Wilson or Cleveland tariff, the duty
on oranges was $50 per 1000 oranges.
Under the Dingley bill the duty is one
cent per pound or the equivalent OF IS
per thousand oranges.
1.-THE British schooner Mabel Darling
arrived here few days ago from
Nassau, New Providence, with cargo Of
oranges and they have been selling at
