them they would have to submit and

The question is discreditable 10
the questioner and unfair to the ques-
toned - said Mr.. Dick.
UAttcrney Clancy objected to the
Lentz question and LentZ made Il bot
argument, saying among other things
that deputies IL Ioaho associated with
lewd characters.

excited and cried: Il hurl the state
ment back into the teeth of the gentle
man from Ohio as falseh ood."
'You ought to be kicked out of
window for that, said Mr.. Lentz.
"I'n prove my statemeat. Mr.. Clerk,
hand ne the testimony in the Corcorsn
case.''
Chairman Hull said to the clerk,
"You need not give it to him.
Hay-"I hope the gentle man won't
tell me | lie"
II want to hurl it into your teeth
that you are party to this lie if You
protect this Internal attorney" Mr..
Lentz retorted.
you've INDUCED IN about all the in
suits that are necessary" Hull replied.
II protest against this disorderly
proceedirg," Mr.. Cox interjecsed. ''if
a lawyer would talk that way TO ne
one of US would go out of the window"
81 move the attorney be expelled"
cried Mr.. Jetty.
"Retract Or get out,'' said Mr.. Cox
TO Mr.. CLANCY.

ed that he did not mean to say that

only wanted to deny the charge. He
made respectful apology and Mr..

of interes ting accounts sent by sur
peons and others at the front, of incl
dents noted on the field and in the

described.
One letter just received tells OF
private soldier who WAS struck by d
portion Of q she'll, receiving a wound
on the right side of the chest, leaving
a large chasm and freely exposing the
lung. Despite the fact that after re-
ceiving the wound the patient lay in q
trench nearly eight hours before ne
received any medical attention he
sisted seversl days later that he had
suffered no shock and very little pain
and that th ere had been no shortness
of bre ath or splitting of blood. All this
notwithstanding the fact that the lung
remained plainly visible until the parts
had commenced to granulate.
Another case reported is that of an
officer who was shot through the
abdomen. Making use of his slight
medical knowledge the wounded man
lsy on his back for twelve bours and
steadily refused to drink water. Six
days later he was convaIescent, having

some hours. One side OF his head was
bruised and cut, which msy have been
caused by a blow either from a fall or
from unknown hands. There was no
evidence of any struggle after his fall

The coroner's verdict was to the ef
feet that be came to his death prob
ably when attempting G to board pass
ing train, or al the hands of some un-
known person who may have killed
him with the intep tions of robbery and
then thrown him off the train.

- SO comparatively recent is theap.
pearance OF woman in the pulpit that the
first woman i'll tho world to be ecclesi-
astically ordained ls still living in New
York. She is the Rev. Antoinette
Brown Blackwell, and was ordained
by a council called by the First Con-
grcgational Church, Of South Butler,
N. ". in 1852, a Methodist minister
preaching the ordination sermon. The
Rev. Olympia Brown was the second
woman ordained, though her ordina-
tiOn did not occur until eleven years
later. In the same year the Rev. Au-
gusta j. Chaplin was received into the
ministry. She was tho first woman to
be honored with the degree of doctor
of divinity. Since these women were
ordained nearly hundred of their
sisters have followed them into the
ministry. So common is tho appear
ance of IL woman in the pulpit to-day
that OH n recent week in Chicago no
less than three congregations heard
sermons from women, and nothing was
thought of it.

CHINESE MEETING.
Wong Leong Tells Just What Was
Discussed at IT

Wong Leong, president of the Chi
nese Hospital Association, writes ex-
planning the object of meeting of
the members of the Chinese Relief
Society, and denies that it was to de
eide whether or not the balance of the
relief fund Is to be used to run an
attorney to represent the Chinese-Am-
ericans at Washington
The topic discussed" says Wong
Leong, was the disposal OF the bal
ance of the funds of the Chinese Re.
lief Society. The more radical mem
bers favor the trausferrence of the
balance of the fund to the Chinese
Hospital to be invested with the con-
dltion that only the interest be used
by the hospital, but the principal Is
to be kept untouched and ready fol-
any emergency that may arise.
