CHURCH VERSUS The BOYS
United Brethren in Christ Are in
Dire Distress.
All Caused by Gang of Young
Americans Letting Off Sur.
plus Energy.

The Church of the United Brethren in
Christ, at the corner OF r and North Cap
itol streets, is undergoing struggle that
is well nigh shaking it TO its foundation.
The cause OF the trouble is not radical
heretical departure from the truth by
some OF the more independent members nor
is il Jealousy between rival pillars; nor
is it even quarrel between the tenor and
the soprano members OF the choir, but it
is the result OF dcpredationS made on the
church by members OF that genus known
as Young America.
The pastor, Rev. J. f. Font, short
while ago, began to notice the actions OF
some naughty small boys, who would con
gregate III the ante-roUms during services
and smoke, give clog dances, and laugh in
irrevereut and loud tones. This was not
calculated TO add TO the piety of the con-
gregation, and, in fact, some of the
members claimed they lost the gist Of
several sermons on account Of the dis
turbance by the small boys.
Finally, as q last resort, the pastor, with
Mr. George McGreger, one Of the most.
visited Judge Kimball and complained to
his honor of the persecution his church was
undergoing. Judge Kirnball sympathized
with Mr.. Fout and promised him he would
fine each and every lad detected in dis
turbing the services $50 or send him to Jail
for ninety days. -
This was very meritoriOus of the juCr;e
and N eminently proper course to follow.
However, there was one difficulty in its
way, and that was the. boys from some
feeling of false Inodcsty, decided to with
| hold their identity from Mr.. Fout.
To enable justice to achieve Is ends Mr..
| McGregor was appointed as a special
policeman. Then a lively war ensued.
| Policeman McGregor did not leave any
stone unturned, which might help him
| hand the boys over to the authorities. The
boys, on the other hand, Were just as
| diligent IN their efforts, both in continuing
| Mr.. McGregor.
The lads, to keep anyone OF their more
| garruioas members from giving information
| unguardedly TO the enemy, organized them
| selves into Il secret brotherhood, sort Of
youthful Malta, from which it is as diff
| ficult to extract secrets as it was from
| the Spanish inquisition.
Mr.. McGreeor, however, prevented any
mischief on the part Of the boys by his
| vigilance last Sunday and hopes TO be able
| to guard the church until the boys get
| tired of the struggle and give promise to
| act as all good boys should.

NBNDALL SMITHS NEMESIS
Suicide of Admirer of Fair Emily
LA Zelle, of This City.
He Floped With Washington Girl,
DESERVING Wife and Four
Children.

The recent suicide OF WeEdall A. Smith,
WashinGtonian, at the Amnesty HOTEL
New York, recalls the history OF the
fair, but frail Emily La Zelle, also of this
city, his paramour, who figured in the
sensational murder committed i'll savan-
nah, Ga, June o, 1896.
One of the mysteries of the murder was
the Identity OF the murdered man. who
was known i'll the case as Fitzpatrick, his
home having been stated to be Lowell,
Mass 1t was believed and published in
WASHINGTON at the time that Fitzpatrick
was name assumed by Wcndall A. Smith.
The death of Smith on January IN New
York untaneles at least one skein III the
varied web OF his life.
The New York dispatch announcing the
suicide OF Smith, speaks OF him as John
Wendall Smith, but describes him further
as man who had gone under the name or
Belmar Stockton. Wendall a. Smith was
known i'll Washington by people as stock
ton, S o that there is no doubt That the John
Wendall smith and the Wendall A. Smith
of this city were the same person.
Emily La Zelle, wien she went on the
stage, assumed the name OF Helene Stock
ton, and as such she was the star witness
in the Fitzpatrick murder trial in Sa-
vannah, to which place she went from
Washington with Wendall y. Smith, who
for her deserted wife and four children,
who at the time Of the tragedy lived at
No. 637 Massachusetts avenue northeast.
The family OF Emily La Zelle lived within
few blocks of the home of Wendall Smith.
He was stagestruck early in life, and, al
though lie never made much of success on
the stage, he is said 10 have been en-
ployed under his real name or some OF his
many aliases as a gent for the Rice company
and that of j. X. Emmett.
lie met the La Zelle at private theatricalS
in this city some time in the early part
of 1891. In the summer OF that year
Emily and lie disappeared and it was
known 90 all, perhaps, except To his wife,
WHO believed in him up to a year ago.
that they had elopcd. When this came out
| it was asserted by the La Zellc family that
Smith and Emily were married, not
withstandng the fact Of Smiths wife and
children living in their ncIghborhood.
Smith had been q clerk IN the Pension
| office, but having lost his place. by dis,
| charge, as was expected, he drilted TO
which latter place he wrote to his wife,
who constantly believed that he would
repent and return.
| Interest was renewed in his movements
when the Loud-Fi Fitzpatrick murder scrape
was reported from Savannah i'll June last
year. Some time before the shooting he
had lived in New York with a Mrs.
smith, who was supposed 10 be Emily
La Zelle.
The circumstances Of the murder were
| that Emily, known in Savannah as Helene
| Stockton, had made an appointment with
| Fitzpatrick to go driving. Fitzpatrick
called at her hotel and found her locked in
a room with man by the name of Loud.
In the quarrel which ensued Fitzpatrick
was killed. AS stated, it was believed
here tina kirkpatrick WAS Smith, but it
now turns out that he was awaited by a
different Nemesis.

ILLINOIS sen NATORIALF FIGHT.
Much Interest in This City Over
the Outcome.

The Senatorial fight in Illinois over the
election of a successor to John Nj. Palmer
attracts much attention here FOR the reason
that three members OF Congress from that
State are candidates more or less avowed-
Messrs. Hit, Hopkins and Cannon -andthey
will probably remain in the field until
after the caucus acts. which it is expected
to do next week.
The leading candidates are Alderman
Martin b. Madden and ex Congressman w.
Z. Mason Of Chicago, each Of whom claims
enough votes to nominate.
1t was stated here yesterday thatin case
of a deadlock between these two, the name
of John S. Runnells, a prominent lawyer
of Chicago, will be presented. to the caucus
as a compromise. Mr.. Runnells has never
held public office, but always took an
active part in politics, and is now counsel
for the board of damage commissioners OF
the city. Heis said to be Il fine speaker.
