badly.

THE WEST CHURCH TROUBLES.
TRUSTEES HOSTILE To DIR. EVANS TO BE RE

TRUSTEES HOSTILE To DR. EVANS TO BE RE-
TIRED By THE CONGREGATION.
The first of a number of sequels to the meeting
OF the congregation of the West Presbyterian
Church which was held on April G. and at which
II was decided by the decisive vote of 1872 10 % not
10 accent the resignation Of the Rev Dr. Anthony
H. Evans the pastor Of the church. VIII take
place at another meeting OF the congregation
which is TO be held on or about May 10. AL TINS
meeting three Of the church will be elect
ed to fill the places of three members Of the pres
ent Board whose terms are about TO expire. IL
has been customary TO re-elect as a matter OF
course the trustees whose terms have expired ana
the election has generally been a mere formal
ty, but this will not be the programme again for
some time 1t will be remembered that the Board
OF Trustees. with the exception OF one or two men,
bers formed the backbone Of the effort TO secure
the resignation Of DR.. Evans. and the meeting OF
April was virtually contest between the trustees
and the congregation, which resulted In over
whelming victory for the latter. Dr. Evans placed
the seal Of his gratitude and approval the vote
by withdrawing his resignation. The congregation
now proposes 10 follow up its victory and annihllate
the enemy by instruments. The three trustees
whose terms are about 10 expire and Of wnom Ed
ward H. Perkins jr.. Is one will not be reelected
Their places will be filled by three men who are
friendly 10 the pastor When the next election Of
trustees takes place three more OF the enemy will
be retired, and three more friends OF DR. Evans
will be elected. In time the whole Board nv the
will OF the congregation expressed In its vote
will be friendly 10 the pastor. Ii has been ascer
tanned that tins is the settled future policy Of the
congregation.
So much bitterness has been engendered bv the
church's troubles that some Of the enemies Of Rus
sell Sage and others OF the trustees who were
associated with him I'm the endeayor TO obtain the
removal Of DR. Evans have been so spitefu as TO
say that the whole proceeding "a far-sighte ed
financial venture the part OF Mr.. Sage. The
church property is mortgaged to an amount which
calls for the annual payment OF about $1,000 OF
interest, and Mr.. Sage is the owner OF this mort
gage. IL is now said that the attempt to GUST DR.
Evans q scheme Of the hnancer TO cause a
split in the congregation which could never be
healed and which would eventually result in the
breaking up of the church. The church property
was then 10 come into the possession Of Mr. Sage
By virtue OF his being the MORTGAGE and IL Is al
legged that he intended 10 hold II for future sale
an investment. The West Presbyterian Church is
In Forty -second-st between Fifth and Sixth ayes.
and its site is OF great value as real estate. Mr..
sage and his friends deny this story absolutely,
and put II down a base and malicious falsehood.

several years go and went to Persia 10 live In a
strange Persian community and brotherhood which.
II Is asserted, not in any way akin 10 the
Parsees in belief customs. DR.. Kheirala
emerged from the community with radical views
concerning the teachings Of the Bible Although II
is said that the Bible is the chief textbook OF this
brotherhood its interpretations Of 1t are different
from those Of the Christian churches. The teach
ings are opposed 10 the doctrine OF evolution Re-
incarnation Is taught not however, along the lines
of the reconsideration of souls. All teaching Is i'm
parted orally, and persons 10 whom IL Is gwen
promise TO receive no pay or reward OF any chal-
acter for imparting ii 10 others. Those who can
grasp the teachings II is said. become members
OF a mystic fraternity possessing occult knowledge
which allows them to forete events. THIS ira
ternity II is said. has gathered many members IN
the United States, and recently small company
of believers under the guidance or Dr. kheraila,
