Rev. G. W. Lutz secretery After
transacting some routine business
Rev. Sutton read alpaper on why
do the poor hiss the church and
cheer the Christ?'
The paper was we'll prepared and
reflected the earnest desire on the
part of the reader to discover, if
possible, the cause for the present.
hostility of the poorer classes to-
ward the church. The paper also,
suggestedssome ways by which the
present tendencies might be cor
rected. 1t elected a thorough dis
cussion of the subject, which was
not only enjoyed but proved bene
fetal to all.
These meetings will certainly re-
suit in a closer sympathy between
these pastors and broadening Of
the fraternal spirit.

COMING TO HIS NATIVE LAND.
Author Henry James Decides to Live
Near Boston In the Flu
ture.

Henry James, the author, long re-
garded as confirmed anglo-maniac,
has come to the front with the in
formation that he is to leave Eng.
land and make his home in future
in the land of his birth. In other
words, that he has secured an option
on property near Boston and will soon
be again counted an American.
To those who know the love of Mr..
James for London and the queer re-
gard In which he was supposed to
hold his countrymen, this news must
prove startling. He has spent the
greater part of his IS years of life
in the British metropolis, and for two
decades has been regarded as an Eng
lishman in everything except his
sworn allegiance to the queen.
While Mr.. James has not lost none
of bib popularity in the social and lit
erary circles of London, still it is
thought that Mr.. Howells has voiced
the joys of life in Boston and finally
prevailed on Mr.. James to return to
his native heath and settle down as

DEFEATS HIS ENEMIES.
Judge Mnckey, an Aged Lover, Final

an Asylum

Judge Thomas A. Mackey, the de-
Tender OF Wade Hampton before Pres
ident Hayes cabinet in the celebrated
case involving the govsrnship of
North Carolina, has secured the re-
lease of his girl wife from the gov
eminent insane asylum at st. Eliza

bitter struggle.
Judge Mackey, who is one of the
noted jurists of the east, was grant
ed an order by the supreme court of
the district of Columbia the other
afternoon whereby Mrs. Mackey could
be turned over to him by the asylum
authorities. Mrs. Mackey was COM

was conspiracy by relatives.
The married life of Judge and Mrs.
Mackey has been short but turbulent,

Miss Katherine Porterfeld, daughter

1t was a love match from the begin

bitterly. They claimed at frst that
the judge treated Mrs. Mackey cruel

bigamy, but Judge Mackey gained a
victory over his prosecutors in this
instance. Finally the young woman
was salu to be insane, and an exam.

tests OF her husband Mrs. Mackey was
carried away to the asylum.

TRIES THE svENGAL1 PLAN.
Hypnotism Enlisted to Make a Jersey
City IN. J) Girl vio-
linist.

A local Svengali is undertaking to
teach girl by means of hypnotic influ-
ence to become an expert violinist. Like
Trilby, she has no natural aptitude for
the task in hand and had practically
given up her ambition to be violinist
when the hypnotist took hold of her.
The pupil is Miss Bessie Burney, of Jer-
sey City, and the professor" is Arthur
Baltar, of At High street, Newark N. ].
Miss Burney had taken violin lessons
for months and was unable to make the
violin do more than squeak out few
simple airs. Her parents, who had fond
hopes of making violinist out of her,
fell back on the hypnotist as last re.
sort and Baltar consented reluctantly
to the experiment. When he put the
girl under influence of hypnotic power
her fingers became supple, her touch
was accurate and she handled the bow
surprisingly well. Unlike Trilby, she
showed the same skill when she passed
from under the influence of the hyp-
motto spell. The lessons will be con.
tinued and she will become am expert
with the violin, the professor says.

A COMING FIGHTER.
Submarine Boats to Play Serious
Part in Naval Warfare.
So Says Capt. Folssr Who Command
ed the Submarine Terror In RE-
cent Mancuvers - searchlisht
Is Indispen sable.

The navy department has received
Admiral Farquhar's report on the re-
cent maneuvers of the North Allan
tic squadron off Newport, r.. I. The adj
miral comments primarily on the zeal
and enthusiasm the mimic naval war
fare awakened among the officers and
men. The exercises proper began on
September "a when the Red squadron,
consisting of the Kearsarge, Indiana,
Texas, Scorpion and Eagle accompan-
led by six torpedo boats, put to sea to
effect blockade of Newport. The re-
naming vessels, the New York, Mas
sachusetts, Leyden and Vicksburg,
were stationed as defenders of the har-
Dor and constitute the Blue squadron.
The general plan of defense followed
by this inside squadron was to place q
battleship on each side Of and Just in
side the mouth of the harbor, so as to
be concealed from the incoming vessels.
Here, with decks cleared for action.
batteries trained forward and full
steam up, the New York and Vicksburg
lay in wait, ready to fire into and ram
any venturesome member of the Red
squadron. Picket boats armed with
rapid fire guns and sharpshooters were
provided with system of signals to
warn all hands of the approach Of the
enemy, and powerful searchlights at
Fort Greeble and other points insured
protection at night. The general plan
followed by all vessels was not to turn
on searchlights until the approach of
a torpedo boat was reported by pick
ct boat.
The plan of placing picket boats
was very successful and not single
torpedo boat got beyond them with
out being reported. With sufficient
number of searchlights on shore it is
doubtful If any vessel could be piloted
at night into harbor that was at all
difficult of entrance.
The bow-wave and wake of torpedo
boats was the first object that aided in
picking them up in the darkness.
The Holland, unfortunately, in her
attack upon the Keafsarge the second
night, did not reach her objective point
until after several torpedo boats had
arrived.
The second nights's operations con-
sisted of an attack upon the outside, or
Red squadron, by five torpedo boats and
the Holland. AS rule the torpedo
boats were successful, although this
would scarcely have been the case with
an efficient boat service
The value of searchlights was partic-
nlarly impressive. as was also the work
done by the Holland. of which Ca pt.
Folger says in an additional report:

Cious part in future naval warfare"

MORE ARTILLERY MEN NEEDED
Report of Mai. Story Shows That Press
ent Force LIS Entirely Inadequate
to Serve the Armament.

Accompanying the repor5 of Maj.
Gen. Brooke, commander Of the de-
partment of the east, to the war de.
partment, was report by Maj. Story,
Seventh artillery. Inspector. Maj.
Story states that the personnel Of
the artillery is manifestly inadequate
to serve the armament already mounts
ed, and he believes there is such gem
eral recognition of this fact that
there will be an increase in artillery
forces at the coming session Of con-
gress.
ut should be remarked in this con-
nection," he says, that the enlisted
force required for one relief to serve
the modern coast armament in this
military department is estimated at
1870 men, yet on the 3Oth of last
June the enlisted strength OF the
heavy batteries in the department
amounted to only 1883 men, and of
these quite number of artillery sol
diers are required by the exigencies
OF the service to garrison posts which
are not properly artillery stations.
1T may also be stated that, with
the exception of the artillery school
at Fort Monroe, Va, there is not in
any important harbor in the United
States even the minimum number of
officers required by the coast artil-
lery regulations for the service of the
modern armament, fire control and
direction"
Maj. Story comments upon the ar
tillery reorganization bill now pend
ing in congress, and says il is a seri-
Gus defect OF the measure that It
does not supply sufficient officers for
staff administration.

BURNED AT STAKE.
Fatal Realism in Young Boys Play
at Trenton, N. J.
Game of Indian Ends In the Death Of

Refuses to show the White
Feather.

Eddie Mcbride, II years old, of Tren.

other day at the hands of his play
mates. He was burned alive at the
stake. After school he played with
several companions dressed us Indians.
and part of the boyish game was to let
him escape from the other lads, who
impersonated savages of the tribe, who
were guarding him as pale face pris-
oner. His fight was not long undiscov-
cred, and soon the crowd of boys
caught up with the fleeing paleface.
In jiffy he was thrown to the
ground and rolled over and over, while
rope was wound about him SO tightly
that he resembled mummy. In tri-
umph he was carried back to the tent
from which he escaped.
An aboriginal court-martial was

and young Mcbride didn't finch, for
be knew the boys were only fooling.
They tied him to fence post back Of
the lot. A'heap Of brush was piled
about his feet, and one venturesoms
spirit lighted the pile at the outer edge.
1t was great fun, and hand in hand
the boys danced around the staked
prisoner. They sang and yelled, and
all the time the yellow flame grew big
ger and higher, and Eddie Mcbride be.
gan to feel the warmth Of the fire
which began to scorch his delicate
skin. He gritted his teeth. The "other
fellows" should see he could stand
pain just as well as real Indian.
But one boy saw the flames gaining
too much Roadway and from bench
back of a workshop that adjoined the
place he threw what he thought was a
cup of water on the fire. 1t was gas
oline.
With roar the flames leaped higher.
There was scream from the little boy
at the stake, and CONSERVATION seized
the boy Indians. They fed in all direc-
lions, leaving their victim shrieking,
while the fire fairly ate him up alive.
