neglect of his duties. He was penni-
less and ragged, An overcoat he had,
it. is true, but his trousers were in
lamentabe condition. To get a new
start he knew that he must manage
to assume an exterior or at least semi
responsibility. After applying 10 his
various acquaintance, with the usual
result, he bethought himself of his
old quarry, the railroad companies.
Having procured himself a hammer
and a nail with an especially Jagged
head, he sailed forth at an hour when
traffic IS light He succeeded in find
ing an empty car which he occupied.
Choosing a spot as far removed as
possible from the eye of the conductor,
he sat himself down and producing
the hammer and nail, he proceeded to
drive the latter into the seat, leaving
the Jagged head protruding about half
an inch, This accomplished, he de-
liberately sat on the nail and writhed
The result was q void in the most
important part of the raiment. Then
he arose and hailing the conductor
pointed out TO him the disgraceful
condition of the seat and the result,
The conductor looked at the nail and
at the rent raiment and was compelled
to acknowledge clear case of cause
and effect, Blank took the number Of
car and conductor and in a few days
the company were threatened with "A
suit for $75 in compensation for dam
ages wrought to a new suit of clothes
worn by one Joseph Blank. The COM
pany compromised on $2O the original
value of the trousers being about $3.50,

is especially fond Of telling it to the
young, as a useful example of the
methods which they should pursue if
they are to make anything Of a sue
cess in this world.

THE SULTAN'S FRIEND.
General Lew Wallace Defends the
Much-Abused Monarch.

Washington, April 2i.--The "Sick
Man of Europe" has at least one good
American friend who thinks it a
shame for the United States to bully
him over a paltry claim. That friend
is General Lew Wallace, the author of
Ben Hur" and former United States
minister to Constantinople Talking of
the question of veracity that has
arisen beteween the representatives of
the United States and Turkey, Cen
eral Wallace said today:
"The sultan of Turkey is an honest
man. l never knew him to tell a lie
and I never knew him to break
promise. 1 do not profess to know
whether Minister Strauss or the Turk
ish minister is corerct in their state
ments of the case at issue, but I think
1t is ridiculous for the great United
states to begin a controversy with
Turkey over despicable 100000.
Abdul Hamid is no more to be
blamed for the crimes of Kurds than
William Mckinley would be if the
Apaches should go on the warpath
and slay the white settlers, as they
have in the past. All that the Kurds
have in common with the sultan and
the Turks is that they, too, are fol-
lowers of Mohammed They are nu-
merous on the eastern border of the
empire and have never been fully con-
quered by the government. The three
million Greek and four million Ar
menian Christians could not remain
In Turkey without the protection of
the sultan, who regards them as his
subjects. Not a Christian church is
burned or a mission destroyed but
the sultan is the first man to sub
scribe to rebuild. / know this to be
so, Abdul Hamid is a distinguished
scholar and diplomat, But for his
skill in preventing the other EuropeanI
powers from acting together, the OF
toman Empire would have been
crushed out long ago"

Application was made to court yes
terday morning by Attorney Walter L.
Gunster for a preliminary injunction
to restrain Bishop Ethelbert Talbot,
of the Episcopal diocese of Central
Pennsylvania, from deposing and de-
grading from the ministry Rev.
Ingram n. w. Irvine, rector of st.
Juke's Episcopal church. of Hunting
don, which sentence DIR. Irvine has
been summoned to receive at st. Luke's
church, in this city. this morning al
II o'clock. Ex-Judge II. N. Willard APP
peared in opposition to the application.
and on the strength of the contention
that the affidavits were insufficient to
support the allegations in the bill, sue
ceeded in having the injunction denied.
New affidavits will be presented this
morning and the motion for san in
junction renewed.
DIR. Irvine was convicted by a court
of inquiry of conduct unbecoming a
minister and sentenced to be un-
frocked. He claims the ecclesiastical
court which convicted him violated
numerous canons of the cnurch per-
tanning to trials of this kind, and on
the strength of these Irregularities he
Is proceeding to enjoin the bishop from
carrying out the sentence. He also
Mains that the charges against him
te untrue, and alleges that the prose-
cdion is malicious.
He claims that the trouble is the re-
suit of a misunderstanding arising last
spring between the bishop and himself
concerning the accommodation of a
Mrs. Emma d. Elliott of his parish,
who remained after having been di-
vorced, which is contrary to the canons
of the church.
DR.. Irvine's action in this matter
caused the bishop TO withdraw his ap-
pointment. The vestry of the church
was induced to throw off its mission
ary stipend and thus made itself free
TO elect it's own rector which it did by
naming DR.. Irvine.
Shortly afterwards, Bishop Talbot re-
ceived letter purporting to come from
Mrs. Elliott. asking him to re-appoint
DR.. Irvine, as means OF notifying
his friends, whose influence had sue
ceeded in ostraciZing her family for
their connection with the case. The
letter proved to be a forgery, and DR..
irvine was ITleu III lHe criminal COuIlS
on the charge of having written it. He
was acquitted.
May 10. DIR. Irvine was cited to ap-
pear before Judge Woodward, of Lu-
zerne county, to show cause why his
pastoral relations with st. Johns
church should not be dissolved, be-
cause of conduct on his part unbe-
coming a clergyman. The hearing re-
suited in court refusing to interfere.
RESULT OF TRIAL.
The same day the court of inquiry
was appointed, and on September 27,
the presentment was served on DR..
Irvine, setting forth what he was
charged with. A lengthy trial was
had at Huntingdon and the sentence of
degradation was the result.
Mrs. Elliott has been indicted for
criminal libel in Huntingdon county
on charge preferred by DR.. Irvine.
Bishop Talbot says that any rela-
tions between him and DR.. Irvine
have no connection whatever with the
prosecution. The charges do not deal
with any violations of ecclesiastical
law, hut with other delinquincies.

Contestants Testimony All In.

Examiner Louis Gramer yesterday
conducted the final session for hearing
testimony for the contestant in the Fell
township election contest, in which
Thomas Holmes contests Nicholas
Glynns election to the office of justice
of the peace, and John owens contests

teen sittings have been conducted and
two hundred and fifty witnesses eX-
amined. The respondent expects to
bring in as many, If not more. wit
nesses.
SO far the contest has cost $3.50. ex-
elusive of the travelling expenses of EX-
aminer Gramer and Stenographer NJ.
J. McAndrew. When the respondent
has finished the cost will be doubled,
it is safe to saw, and then will come
the expense of so a day for the eX-
aminer in preparing the report and the
stenographers charges for TRANSCRIPT
ing, which will be something in the
neighborhood of $500.
