BRIGGS IN HIS OWN DEFENSE.
Lately Ordained Priest Explains some
of His Bible Views.

The New York Herald OF today says: The
Rev DR.. Charles A. Briggs has broken his
silence on the criticisms of his book and his
ordination as a priest in the Episcopal
Church. In a letter to the Right Rev Or.
Thomas NJ. Clark, bishop Of Rhode Island
and presiding bishop OF the Episcopal
Church in this country, he says:
Il think We are about to enter a new age
OF uhe world, and that these things will DE
prominent I'm it: The imminence of God, the
living, reigning Christ as Priest and King;
the presence Of the indwelling Spirit in the
individual and in the organism Of the
church; the practice Of holy love, entire
sane tification, the communion of saints in
this world and in the other world and the
reconciliation and reunion OF Christ's
Church
Il have been brought to see these things
and to regard them the great banner
principles for the future. For them | stand
with all my soul, while do not neglect or
in any way discard any portion of the in
heritance of Christ's Church in doctrine or
in life.
Il am assured by my pupils that 1 make
the Bible to them more real. more power
full, more divine. l have never heard a sin
gle one of the thirteen hundred theological
students have trained in the past twenty
six years who has said that | impaired mis-
faith In Holy Scripture. The testimony is
all the other way"
Bishop Matthew Harkins of the Catholic
diocese of Providence, r. l., has an organ,
weekly paper called the Visitor. Its edl-
tor is the Rev. Thomas L. Kelly In the
issue of Saturday last the Briggs case is
commented on. The writer says the Rev.
Dr. De Costa possibly was hasty in contra
dieting Bishop Potter's statement that
Catholic scholars had Endorsed Dr. Briggs
book. The article continues:
I'VE know of one professor OF Scripture
whose views ON the Messianic idea are
strfkingly novel, and We know of another
member of faculty which solemnly
thanked the holy father for his wise and
timely encyclical Providentissimus Deus
published in 1S93-whose private views are
at variance with his public profession of
loyalty to the doctrines of the encyclical in
question, who says that they know nothing
about Scripture IN Rome. and that 'Provi-
dentissimus Deus is a mere rehash of old
fashioned opinions. These things are no.
tcrious."

ihe Gas and Electric Plants.
To the Editor of The Evening Star.

1our correspondent, wv. J. M" whose
communication was published in The Star
OF the nth, seems to be surprised that the
STOCK OF the gas company should command
500 per cent, and that it is profitable at thar
infer that he must be a newcomer or is
not familiar with the history of the COM
pany and the efforts which have been made
to secure cheaper gas.
II ne Is specially interested in the subject
ne can get full information by obtaining
copies of Senate Report No 14fO narts I
ana = 1st session, Forty-nnth Congress
and H. X. Report No. 6.y, ID session Fiji
ty-third Congress, and if those are nor to
De had at the Capitol he can get them by
calling on me.
How absurd, in view of the present price
of the stock and the dividend it pays. were
the statements made by the officials of the
company at the hearing that If they were
compelled to sell gas at 81 they would lose
money; that 1t cost that much or more to
produce and deliver it!
or course it is for the advantage of those
who own the stock to continue the present
arrangement, and no one can blame the
stockholders for working to continue IL
But no one at all posted can have any cues
ton as to the fact that it would be greatly
to the advantage of both citizens and the
general and District governments for the
District to make and furnish the gas.
AS to the Great Falls water power 1t
ought to have been purchased by the United
|
ing electric light and power as was pro-
posed in Col. Elliot's report. But inasmuch
as Congress will not or would not do it, I
am glad to learn that it is to be done by a
private company. With the large water
power that exists between this city and the
Great Falls, inclusive, electricity ought to
be furnished here at the national capital
so cheaply that everybody could use it for
any and all purposes. 1t is to be hoped
that the company VIII pursue liberal pol
ley: but with them as with the gas COM
pany and all other private companies their
object will be to make money, and it is to
be expected that they win charge all that
the traffic will bear" just as the rest Of
US would If we had it. Still, they should
bear in mind the fact that liberal policy
secures the most custom and pays best in
the long run.
OF course, Congress can at any time pur-
chase or condemn both that and the gas
plant. but do not think there is any prob
ability that 1t will do so for years, II at all
for, as l said at the hearing on the question
OF abolishing grade crossings. the fact is
that corporations AMI combines or trusts
control the legislation of the country, ma

appeals for the seventh circuit, should be
reversed. This order was made to remand
to the circuit court, with instructions to
set aside the confirmation of sale and to
inquire whether lit is true, as alleged that
the foreclosure proceedings were made in
pursuance of an agreement between the
bondholder and stockholder to preserve the
rights of both and destroy the interests of
unsecured creditors, and that, il it shall
appear that such was the agreement be-
tween the parties to refuse to permit the
confirmation of sale until the interests of
unsecured creditors have been preserved.

COLONIAL DANES, X ECEPTION
Time Drawing Near for This Notable
Event

One of the most notable and really
magnificent social events of the pres
ent year will be the reception in this
city next Tuesday night of the Colo
NAL Danes of North Carolina, refer
ence to which has before been made
in these columns. The reception being
called forth by an epoch in the history
of the society, to commemorate the two
hundredth anniversary Of the founding
of the first public library in North Car
olina and the first in America, it will
be held in an historical house-the
grand old colonial mansion of Mr. Jas.
Sprunt, one of Wilmington's most at
tractive places. No more suitable or
appropriate residence could have been
selected for an suspicious event of this
kind.
The Colonial Danes have made and
are still making extensive preparations
for the reception. 1t will be conducted
IN an elaborate scale, and all exercises
will be strictly in keeping with the OBJ
ject of the celebration.
A large number Of the society
friends in this and other states have
received invitations to the anniversary

Death of Mr. Fred Hefnes

We sincerely regret to chronicle the
death of Mr.. Fred. J.. Heines, a we'll
known young man of this city. He
passed away yesterday afternoon at
O'Clock 1t his home, $40 McCumber's
Alley, from that dread malady, con-
sumption. He had been in bad health
some months, and while his relatives
and friends knew that the end was
near, his death is a great shock to
them all.
Mr.. Heines was tutored as a black
smith by the late Mr.. j. w. Perdew,
and for several years he has held a
position at Jacksonville, Fla. Finding
hat his health was giving away before
the insidious disease, he came back to
Wilmington to end his days amid
loved ones and friends.
The deceased was % years OF age on
the 30th of last December. He leaves
three sisters, Mrs. w. A. Vollers, Miss
Sophie Heines, and Miss Louise Heines,
who have the deep sympathy Of the
entire community.
The funeral will take place this
morning at 1920 o'clock from st. Pauls
Evangelical Lutheran church.

Robbed n CLERGYMAN

We have often heard Of mean robber-
les, but one Of the meanest We know
of occurred IN Saturday night. The
occasion also makes the act all the
meaner. 1t was the night before Eas-
ter, and the Rev. DR.. Carmichael, rector
of ST. Johns Episcopal church, as a
matter of course had made extra prep
arations for a good Easter dinner. A
thief, however, broke into the rectory
and robbed the clergyman of all his
supplies. DR.. Carmichael's Pensioners
came to his rescue, however, and he
had the greatest abundance of good
things sent in for his table.
