ARTICLES OF FAITH
of the
Mormon Church.
Compiled by REV. ]. D. EUTTlEG and
REV. D. j MCMILLAN, D. D.

The Articles Of Faith of the Nor
mon Church would seem to embody
the fundamental doctrines held by
Christians generally. adding a few
which are of only secondary impOr-
lance and peculiar to the "Latter-day
Saints But the authoritative inter
probation of these Articles places
Mormonism beyond the pale OF Chris
tanity.
The following quotations, com
piled by Rev. j ID. Nutting and Rev.
ID. j. Mcmillan, ID. d., are in every
instance taken from standard Nor
mon works, published by themselves,

Early yesterday morning the town
of McMechen was again visited by bur-
glars, who succeeded in making their
escape, after being given lively chase
by the marshal and one of the resi-
dents. The thieves entered the resi-
dences of L. M. McFann, William Dean
and John Gillingham, and made rath-
er good haul at the home of Mr.. Dean,
securing two watches, one gold and
the other silver, of considerable value,
about $3.50 in money, two pairs or
shoes and other articles. Very little
was taken by the men at the other two
houses, probably for the reason that
they failed to notice any articles OF
value in their rush to get away. 1t Is
reported that there were three men in
the gang, and they are generally
thought to be the parties who are re-
sponsible for the robberies that have
been perpetrated in the town at various
times during the past few months.
1t was about 80 o'clock when the
robbers were discovered at the resi-
dence of L. NJ McFann, the well known
B. & o. engineer. At that hour Mr.. Nc
Fam was awakened by noise in his
room and saw man of medium height
standing at the side Of his bed, in the
act of searching the pockets OF his
trousers. He Immediately arose and
quickly ran to another apartment OF
the house, where he secured a Win
chester rifle. In the meantime the man
made his way out of the house and
reached Gravel street as Mr.. McFann
started after him. Two or three shots
we're fired at the fleeing intruder, but
none of them were effective, and it is
said that shots were also fired by one
of the gang. A number OF people llv-
ing in the neighborhood were attracted
to the scene by the firing, and a lively
chase 6uSu6u. i uc puioulhS POI ", III
Guiding the town marshal and Jesse
MARBLE, was able to get on the right
trail owing to the snow on the ground
at the time. The tracks of the three
men were made in different directions,
evidently for the purpose of misleading
the pursuers. One of the tracks, it is
stated, was followed to the door OF
citizen of the place. Two of the men
ran to the river bank, and, securing a
skiff. made out for another point.
The chase resulted in a light of sus-
picion being thrown on one of the resi-
dents of the place, and thorough in
vestigation will be made. The authori-
ties intend to use every effort to bring
the guilty parties to justice.
