cal Temple. the action of the Building
Trades Council dIse6untenancing the for
nation of dual. organizations of the same
trade or craft in the District of Column

in the Building Trades Council on the

organization of that craft. which it was
stated. had been organized in the city
under the direction of the organizer Of
the Central Labor Union.
The stone cutters are also affiliated with

Experimenting.

Prof Howard L. Hodgkins, dean of the
Corcoran Scientific School, was painfully.
though not seriously injured by an ex-
plosion while experimenting with carbon
dioxide gas in the chemical laboratory at
Columbian University about II o'clock
yesterday morning.
He was badly bistered about he'face
and head and cut in several places by the
flying glass of the tube which contained
the gas. The paratine with which the
tube was sealed was driven into his eyes
and it was at first thought that he would
lose his sight.
DR.. Harry HURT, of 1910 H Street, was
called in Immediately after the accident
and gave the suffering man relief Fear
ing that his patients eyes were injured
be summoned DR.. Stewart Muncaster,
who made an examination and pro-
nounced the injury not serious Later
Prof. Hodgkins was sent in a carriage to
his home at 1880 T Street DR.. D. X.

daily papers from all the European coun-

over twenty papers from this country

served and translated and read with great
care by the Commissioners.

THE PREACHERS WIFE
DREW A REVOLVER
PANIC AMONG THE WORsHIPERs
Ihreatens to shoot Her Husbands
assistant. and Frightens the As
sembled Flock Into Hysterics.

Lancaster. Pa. Nov 2g-During the
services in the African Methodist Episco-
pal Church, IN Columbia Sunday night.
Mrs. c. II. Thurston, wife Of the pastor,
sprang up in fer pew. near the altar and
pointing a revolver al the Rev A X Cor
bin, her husbands assistant. shouted,
You puppy, III shoot you!"
In an instant the congregation was in
panic. There was mad scramble 10
get out and, leaping over the pews men
and women made a wild break for doors
and windows. tumbiing from the building
as fast as they could, while Mrs Thurs
ton continued her threats and belliger-
cnt attitude.
Jealousy was at the bottom of all the
trouble. The congregation decided some
time ago to raise money by subscription
for church improvements. To stimulate
rivalry that might spur each to his best
endeavor, the church members were di-
vided into two collecting bands, one head
Mrs Sadie Little.
The Rev. Mr. Corbin was in Mrs Thurs
tons party, but as many of his Sunday
school teachers were with Mrs. Little he
agreed to give her dollar also. The COM
mittees were to report last night. The
money was turned in a week ago, and
then Mrs. Thurston had $1405 and Mrs.
Little 81, a lead OF cents for the minis
ter'S wife
Mrs. ThurStOn's triumph was short
lived, for Mr.. Corbin announced that he
had not yet donated his dollar which he
promptly did, putting Mrs Little hand
somely TO the front Not 10 be outdone
Mrs. Thurston gave a dollar more from
her private purse, and regained her lead
of cents.
Thus matters stood Sunday night when
the report was to have been read. Mr..
Corbin was about to take the usual col
lection and the sight of him and the
money in the same glance doubtless prov
ed too much for her equanimity, for it
was then she acted.
The Rev. Mr. ThurstOn was sitting in
the pulpit when his wife spoke, and while
his frightened flock were fleeing for shell
ter he ran toward her, Mr. Corbin having
dropped out of range behind a pew. Aft
er a struggle Mrs. Thurston was disarm-
ed and hurried TO her home, next door.

BAKERS RESOLUTION
RAISED A RUMPUS
THE QUESTION OF NOMINATIONS
Epworth League Elects Officers and
Closes Its Eighth Annual
Convention.

The final meeting of the eighth annual
convention of the Epworth League % the
District of Columbia was held last night
in the Sunday school rooms of the Metro
politan Methodist Episcopal Church and
the reports of the officers and commit
tees were received, and new officers
elected
The committee on credentials reported
that niEety-eight delegates, representing
seventeen chapters, had been present at
the convention. The appointment of a
new committee was authorized to be made
by the first vice president of the league.
to assist him in doing missionary work
in the District.
The election of officers took up the
greater part of the evening, as the old
officers declined denomination with the
exception of the recording secretary and
third vice president, and considerable diff
ficulty was experienced in securing nomi-
nees who would serve if elected.
After the election, however J. s Baker
called up a resolution which was laid over
at last years convention providing that
there should be a nominating committee
appointed and that at least two nominal
tions should be made for all of the offices
one month before the next annual con
ventiOn.
This resolution OcCasiOned considerable
discussion, in which the scenes of the
evening were characterized as disgraceful
and outrageous. Mr.. Bakers resolution
was finally adopted, and it was remarked
that this was the fifth annual convention
in which he had endeavored to secure the
passage of a measure of this kind.
The officers elected were as follows:
Rev. J. Fred Heisse of Wesley Methodist
Church, president; S. S. Culberson, of Nc
president: Miss Ida Gilbert, of Douglas
Methodist Church, second vice president;
Mrs. H. B. Moulton. of Hamline Metho-
dist Church, third vice president; E. S.
LaFetra, of Metropolitan Methodist
Church. fourth vice president; H F. Belt,
of Trinity Methodist Church, recording
secretary; Miss Helen Smith. of Dunbar
ton Methodist Church. corresponding sec
retary: Miss Katie Frederick of North
Capitol Methodist Church. treasurer. and
Mrs. Kate Altschu, of Foundry Methodist
Church, superintendent of Junior League.
\ communication from the secretary of
the Anti-SaloOn League was received, in
viting two delegates to be selected by the
league to attend the fourth annual con-
vention of the Anti-Saloon League to be
held in Cleveland, Ohio, on December S
, to next.
The meeting then adjourned sine die.
