Helping D Church.
According to a Pittsburg special in the
Philadelphia Press today President Charles
NJ. Schwab Of the United States Steel Cor
poration was given unique reception last
night at Braddock by the members Of the
First Presbyterian Church, to whom he
gave $500 several days ago to help clear
their debt.
The women. who were out in force to
see Mr.. Schwab. were SO elated that they
insisted on kissing him. Mr.. Schwab Is
well known in Braddock. where for many
years he was in charge of the Edgar
Thomson steel works. Mr.. Schwab sub
mitted graciously and was kissed by 200
women of the church. Some of them
hugged him heartily and said, God bless
YOU"
Mr.. Schwab was so pleased over his
reception that he agreed to wipe out the
remaining debt Of the church, amounting
to 800, for which he drew a check on
the spot and handed 1t to the church
treasurer. Mr.. Schwab has also donated
to another church G new building in Brad
dock. and 1t will be consecrated tomor-
row. This Is the structure just completed
by st. Mary's Protestant Episcopal congre-
cation, for which Mr.. Schwab supplied the
funds through his mother-in-law, Mrs.
Mary e. Kinesey Of Braddock, who is
member of the congregation. While Mr.
Schwab was being kissed his wife stood by
smiling. apparently enjoying it as much as
her husband.

CHARGE NOT SUSTAINED.
Solicitor of Funds Deemed to Be Not
Guilty of Fraud.

Adelbert N Dynia, who claimed to be
priest Of the Catholic Church. was IN the
Police Court today on charge OF having
attempted fraudulently to collect funds to
be expended in the construction OF church
at Wickatunk. small town In New Jersey.
When questioned the defendant denied the
charge in toto, and after a careful inVesti-
cation of the facts Assistant District Ato-
torney Gordon decided to enter nolle pros.
In the case. Dynia, it was stated by Mr..
Gordon, is not a Roman Catholic priest, but
an excommunicant of the church, seeking
to build a meeting house in New Jersey,
where he intends to conduct services OF an
independent character. Rev. Dr. ROCKER,
secretary to Cardinal Martinelli, was at the
Police Court today and discussed the
charge with Mr. Goruon. He stated to the
attorney that a law obtained in the church
prohibiting an communication from sol1c-
iting funds for any such purpose as that
alleged, and it was urged that some action
be taken by the government in the matter
The primary charge against the defend
ant was made yesterday by Mr.. Arthur D.
Bennett of 33 H street northwest. 1t is al
legged that yesterday afternoon the accused
man was soliciting money from various
Catholics in the st. Aloysius diocese. Mr..
Bennett stated that Dynia represented the
funds to be intended for the expense Of
erecting Catholic church at Wickatunk.
Sergeant Goss of the sixth precinct took
the defendant to Rev. Father German Of
ST. Aloysius Church, who questioned him.
After a lengthy conversation between the
two Father German, it is said stated that
Mr.. Dynia had no authority to collect
money for the Catholic Church. After
some further Investigation Dynia was
placed under arrest.
Mr.. Dynia said to Mr.. Gordon at the
court today that he was an Austrian by
birth and had been ordained to the priest
hood in Vienna several years ago. Later
he went to South America, where. 1t Is
stated, he became involved In trouble with
his bishop, and subsequently, 1t is alleged,
was communicated.
In investigating the case today Mr.. Cor
don caused the New Jersey authorities to
be communicated with A telegram was
received by him later vouching for the de-
,fendants respectability and saying that he
had recently purchased a large quantity Of
lumber there to be used In building his
church. Mr.. Gordon held, therefore, that
there was no case against him. The attor-
ney stated to those who sought a prosecu-
tion that any one similarly situated had
perfect right to solicit funds, and that so
long as there was no intent to defraud no
case could be made out against Mr.. Dynia.
The latter was therefore discharged.

WOMEN IN JAPAN,
Better OF Than Their Chinese and
COrean Sisters.

Better OH Than Their Chinese and
COrean Sisters.
From Ainslee's Magazine.
AS to the future of the women of the far
east, we speculate only until we visit
Japan. Here flood of encouraging light
Is thrown on the question. for the "emanci-
patton" progressive Japanese girls and
women are proving everything for us as
far as their Chinese and Corean sisters are
concerned. We may judge Of the poten-
tialities OF them all by these brave pioneers
who have struck for a broader life. At
the same time, through a closer contact
with the Japanese than one has been able
to obtain with the native in either China
or Corea. one Is enabled to grasp more
fully the oriental point Of view.
This was brought home to me first in
Japanese travel. l can look back now with
amusement at my feelings when 1 realized
that my Japanese men fellow-traveiers con-
sidered that their own comfort was of
much more moment than mine. Not that I
received discourtesy; 1 was simply rele
gated to a position Of unimportance. The
Japanese husband Is apt to treat his wife
kindly, but he is in no way accountable to
her. She Is obliged to trot meekly several
PAGES behind him when they go out to-
gether on the street, and must eat her
meals In a separate room after he has
finished. If a man should get up to offer
his seat to woman in crowded railway
japanese women have much liberty. Often
they are virtually treated as companions
by their husbands and sometimes strong
mutual regard grows between husband and
wife; but the women Of Japan are yet far
from occupying the position to which they
are entitled. Japan needs the slow growth
Of comradeship between the sexes to make
more perfect her civilization. The young
man should feel the gentle influence of vir
tuous women. and associate love with mar
riage, instead Of being dependent on the
sprightly companionship Of the "geisha."
1t Is a matter of regret that the foreign
er's usual conception of the Japanese wo-
man Is that of the "geisha," the merry,
fascinating dancing girls of the tea houses.
whose loose morality reflects on all Japan
ese womankind. Few casual visitors to
Japan have an opportunity Of knowing the
real Japanese women, the sweet little
home makers who are as pure and gentle
and modest as any women in the world;
who are gifted with a rare intelligence
that, however, they are seldom trained to
use. There are phases Of Japanese civili-
zation today that remind us Of ancient
Greece when the most attractive and cul-
tured women were to be found outside the
family circle. The Japanese youth is de-
barred all woman companionship save that
of the tea houses; the husband often de-
serts his quiet little wife for the more
alluring company Of the only women in
Japan who are educated to make use Of all
their charms.

at Mount St. AIbans on the commanding

of Saints Peter and Paul. by Rev. Mr..
Bratenahl. the rector Of St. Albans. Here.
In a natural amphitheater. with an eme-
raid sward for carpet. and surrounded by
leafy trees. hundreds have gathered.
The contour Of the spot is such that the
preachers voice can be easily heard by all.
Many of those who have attended have
preferred reclining on the grassy slopes to
occupying the benches, but all have been
notably impressed by the services under
such surroundings. The services have been
ushered in not by sounding bells. but by
the theme Of Mendelssohn's Hymn Of
Praise" rendered upon brass instruments
by musicians Of the United States Marine
Band. The hymns sung are all popular
ones and leaflets containing them are dis
tributed.
So successful have been the services and
30 steadily have the attendance and the in

with suspicion now. whereas a cough at
any other time would not be noticed. Those
that are actually sick will not number
more than 10000.
THE cause Of the disease Is not known.
Atmospherical conditions are supposed to
be the cause-cold, wet weather. such as
we had the last spring. Horses In the best
ventilated stables are affected. as well
those with poor ventilation. / see no rea
son for alarm; the main thing Is to be able
to recognize the disease when it makes its
appearance and apply proper remedies i'm

New Disease Among Horses.
DR.. H. w. Acheson, veterinary surgeon
for Lttle1eld, Alvord & Co., returned to
Washington yesterday after a visit to New
York and other eastern cities after infor-
nation regarding the new horse disease
It has not become prevalent in Washing
ton. and in a report which DR.. Acheson
made to his firm he says that the number
afflicted in New York and other places has
been greatly exaggerated. DR.. Acheson
says:
THE disease Is practically the same as
that which affected horses to such an
alarming extent in 1872 and 1878. although
with some few differential characteristics.
In the first place, there are not the same
complications following the disease. such as
congestion of the fntestines, the lungs,
brain and laminal of the feet. Besides, the
disease then was very fatal, a great per-
centage of the cases dying. while now they
recover, as a rule, with prompt and proper
treatment In from two to three weeks.
The symptoms are great depression of
the vital forces, loss Of appetite, cough,
slight elevation of temperatre-may be as
high as 105, generally from 1O2 to 103-
pulse weak: the eyes are not much affect
ed in these cases. but were in 1872 and
1875, which gave rise to the name OF pink
eye. There have been various names given
to the disease-epizootic. pink-eye. distem-
per. shipping fever. equinitis. la grippe and
influenza, the latter being probably the
best name for the disease. as it gives us a
much better idea OF what the disease
really is.
II found the horses in Hartford. Conn.
suffering with much more severe type
of the disease than those Of Brooklyn, New
York and Jersey City. The number of
horses affected has been very much exag-
gerated. After talking with some OF the
most prominent veterinarians find that
a conservative estimate Of the horses af-
fected in New York city Is from 5000 to
10000. Many horse IL kept from work
