How the Minister to China Obtained
MissiOnary's Release.
The story is told of a Chinese man
DARN who early learned that Edwin IL
Conger, the American minister to Chi
ma, was not to be baked or bluffed
says the Chicago Record. A mission
airy Of the American Bible society, duly
provided With passports and creden-
tails, was stopped by the officials and
held In the military quarters on some
paltry trumped up charge. The mis-
sionary sent word to Minister Conger
and the minister went in person to see
about it. When be learned the trivial
nature Of the trouble he demanded the
release Of the missionary, saying he
was an American citizen, and as such
his rights must be respected.
But my orders are to hold him here, >
said the officer.
"And my orders from the United
States are to demand his release"
"He must stay here until it suits his
majesty to release him."
1.-THE United States of America de-
mands his immediate release" quietly
rejoined Minister Conger. "and we're
used to getting what we want"
The missionary was given his free
dom at once.

New Sect From Lincoln, Neb., Dis
covered by PhiIRdeIphia's Coroner.
The death Of a 7-months-old child in
Philadelphia, which was reported to
the coroner the other day, led to the
discovery that nine children and five
adults have been living in six room
house. The adults are faith curists,
and they do not permit the children to
have medical attention when Ill.
At the inquest the leader of the party
said he was H.E. Sollenberger, ana he
came to Philadelphia about three
months ago from Moonlight, Ky. This
was his first experience in what he
called "a faith curist orphanage' He
said the name OF the sect was the Fire
Baptized Holiness association. He is
STYLED the reverend. but admitted that
he had never attended a religious sem
mary and was never licensed TO preach
by any church, says the New York sun.
The headquarters Of the sect are at
Lincoln, Neb.
Sollenberger Is tall, gaunt fellow,
stoop shouldered and with sallow
complexion and deep sunken blue eyes.
He wore a long black cutaway coat
and walstcoat of clerical cut. His cap
was similar to that worn 10y officers Of
the Salvation Army, and on the band
Of red, in black letters, was printed
Jesus Saves Eternity-WhereY In
answer to questions Sollenbergcr said
that the "orphanage was supported by
voluntary contributions Asked why
he did not have medical treatment for
the child. he replied:
Because it Is against our religious
principles. We are children of God
and believe In the curing of disease by
prayer"

a broken legf"
"Cure 1t myself"
"You do not mean that, do your
."Yes, sir; do"
'This child died of neglect, did it
notT asked the coroner.
"No, sir; 1t did not" Sollenberger re-
piled impressivcly. God took 1t away"
Sollenberger said he believed there
were branches Of the organization in
many large cities and that 1t was grow

Improved TeIegrnphy.

Messrs. Pollak and Yirag, the invent
ors of the new system Of quick teleg-
raphy, by which one apparatus can
transmit 900 words per second, or
about $4,000 words an hour, have now
greatly improved their invention. For
merly the message received over the
wire was printed in the signs Of the
Morse system, which required to be de-
ciphered by an expert and to be tran
scribed, operations requiring time. Now,
however, according to Vienna dis
patch to the London Mail, the message
is printed In ordinary Roman letter
ing, so that any one can read the tele-
gram as It comes over. This improve
ment does not diminish the speed
