DIR. EAsToN's EXPLANATION.
A Statement to His CONGREGATION
Concerning Olga Ncthersoie.

The suit for $4,000 damages brought by
Olga Nethersole against Rev. DR.. Thomas
C. Easton. pastor of the Eastern PresDyte
rian Church. on account of his reference
to her in a recent sermon as a ''lewd
actress" resulted last evening in an ex-
PLANTATION on the minister's part.
DIR. Easton has retralned from discuss
ing the matter since the suit was brought.
but in view of the circumstances it was
expected that some reference to it would
be made by him yesterday. Accordingly,
the church services in the morning and IN
the evening were well attended and many
in the audience expected to hear the min
ister's version of the case. They were dis
appointed at the morning service, for in
stead of an apology or explanation, the
entire time vas taken up with a mis-
sionary address. In the evening, however.
the explanation was forthcoming. There
was no reference to the case during the
sermon, nor before the final prayer. After
the prayer, however. DR.. Easton stepped
forward and read from BRIEF written
statement He said
81 desire to make an explanatory state
ment regarding the discourse delivered
from this pulpit on the evening Of April
/ on Suppression of the immoral Drama
and of Impure Literature which has led TO
legal proceedings brought against me fer
500. 900 damages by Miss Olga Nethersole.
This is an explanatory statement Mark
the language.
When | quoted the words lewd actress
in speaking OF her, l had no reference 10
the personal character of Miss Nethersole,
of which / had no knowledge. but of the
role she PLAYED, which, as is admitted by
police interference in many cities, is the
story of the life of prostitute. Justice
Gray says if a thing is calculated to arouse
impure motives, then 1t is indecent. JUS
tees Benedict and Gilderseeve, of New
York. might also be quoted to the same
effect. In my address | had no intention
OF denouucing Miss Nethersole. but the
character she represented.
This statement is meant to be as pub
lie as the offending remarks. This is final.
Further than this l shall have nothing TO
say"
At the conclusion of the service two or
three persons In the audience came for
ward and shook DR.. Easton's hand. He de-
clined to talk TO reporters.

A QUESTION OF DISTANCE.
A Complicated Case Brought Up Be-
fore Justice Cole

fore Justice Cole.
The question of the proper method of de-
termiuing the distance between two given
points. from a legal view, came up for
consideration Saturday before Justice Cole,
sitting for Circuit Court business The
matter which the contestants in court
wished to have settled was, which is tne
nearer to the Office of Ansun s. Taylor.
justice Of the peace. at 1912 F Street: S.
Herbert Giesy, justice of the peace,
whose office is at 9iS F Street, or Santnel
r. Church, another justice, whose office iy
located at 925 f Street
The question came up on the hearing for
a petition for a writ of certiorari filed By
the defendant in landlord and tenant pto-
ceeding, instituted before Justice Taylor.
When the suit was instituted the defendant
applied for a change of venue, and Justice
Taylor unhesitatingly certified the case TO
Justice Church. Objection was raised to
this on the ground that the change was
not in compliance with the letter of the
law, which requires that in such cases the
certifcatlon must be to lthe next near
est justice of the peace
In order that the court might be fully
informed as to the actual facts in the
case, the services of a civil engineer We're
Office Of Justice Taylor and the offices Of
the other two justices. were accurately
ascertained. BY actual measurement 1t
was found that the Office Of Justice Giesy
at 91S F Street, is 1.G10 feet along the
building line from the office of Justice
Taylor. In determining the distance of
the Office of Justice Church from that
of Justice Taylor. two measurements were
taken. These measurements show that
the distance measured diagonally is 9S2
feet, while by the way of customary travel.
that is along the south side of F Stree.
to point opposite Justice Church's office,
and then directly across the street, the
distance is 1,G77 feet. So it is that on
diagonal measurement Justice Of the Peace
Church is nearer Justice Taylor than JUS
tice Giesy by IS feet. while along the
building line. or walk of common travel,
he is seven feet further away
It was this condition of affairs which
determined the defendant in the landlord
and tenant proceeding to submit the mat
ter to Justice Cole to decide which of the
justices of the peace has jurisdiction in the
case.
Justice Cole. however. did not entertain
the matter on the question of the dis
tances between the different Offices. but
quashed the petition for certiorari. on the
ground that the case could only be enter
tanned on appea! from the justice to which
it had been certified, because of alleged
want of Jurisdiction

THE EcUMENIcAL CONFERENCE
Rev. Charles &. StakeIy breaches OF
Its Object and Eject.

At the First Baptist Church, Sixteenth
and o Streets, Rev. Charles A Stakely
preached an interesting sermon yesterday
to a large audience. The text was taken
from the thirteenth chapter of Luke,
twenty-ninth verse: And there shall come
from the east and from the west, from the
north and from the south. and shall sit
down in the Kingdom of God" The dis
course was mainly upon the features and
the work of the Ecumenical Conference,
recently held in New York, to which the
speaker was a delegate.
He spoke of the wonderful object of the
meeting, OF its purpose to bring together
in one city and in one auditorium people
from every part of the known world
bound together by one tie, the desire to
fulfill the command OF Christ, to spread
the Christian doctrine throughout the
world. to the heather as well as to the
civilized. He dwelt upon the picturesque
features OF the gathering; on the strange
interest taken in its proceedings by per
sons of every stage in life; Of the subtle
influence welded by the body and the
curious delegates which made parts of it.
Then the force of its meaning was I'm
pressed upon the congregation. That such
an assembly was possible sgniied the
coming of the universal domination Of
CnTiSllaHlly. DT- otdhtiy cdlleu attention
TO the rapid growth, in only a few years
of the idea of the unity Of races. He
spoke of the hope for the future that was
embodied in the numbers Of young people
who were interested in foreign lands IN
doing missionary work. Christianity had
already become a part of the history OF
every nation on the globe and the outlook
for the coming century, compared with and
in view OF the work performed and the
results accomplished In the past. was
something grand. Christian people had
never before been SO close together. and
this feeling would increase and strengthen
spirit OF unity held all modern churches
regardless of creed.
The labors of the various young peopIe's q
societies were wonderful. The speaker did
not believe In church for young people
managed by young people alone; neither
did he care for q church that was wholly
dominated by the older and more con-
servative members. One meant as much
TO him as the other: the old and the young
should work together in harmony. But
those In the audience who had seen fifty
five or sixty years could remember the
time when there was n feeling that the
young and the women should be excluded
from the church work. That period had
passed. and that ii was well that IL had
was shown by the sums raised by the
women's auxiliary societies and by the or
CARNATIONS Of the younger members of
the fold. The young are to do the work of
the church in the opening quarter of the
next century and that they would do il
well was already manifest.
He said the army Of the Lord was ever
increasing In numbers and in efficiency.
