here has been one Of the most success
ful in the history of the congregation.
During the past three years the mem
berShIp has increased from $50 to AIS.
When he came three years ago there
was a church debt OF q, 800; to-day the
church is free from debt. Eighty new

church this year. Three years ago the
church paid 1858 toward missions and
other benevolences; this year it paid
$3.50. The spiritual condition ofthe
church is excellent and all is in splen-
did working order. A great deal Of
ere iit is due the pastor for this state

DIVISIONS OF EARTH DEFINED.
Judge Mason Hands Down Important
Opinion About Surface.

Judge John w. Msson rendered a
decision in the circuit court Monday
which is Of great Importance in this
section Of the state, where continued
oil and coal development is evident or
all bands where we have, ~ the sur.
face or agricultural stratum; ~ the
several strata Of limestone; 81 the
ConnellsyllIe thick vein of coal: az the
upper Freeport vein; % the lower
Freeport vein; 90 the salt stratum;
n the several oil and gas strata, all of
which underlie the surface, or agri-
cultural stratum. He ruled that the
land was susceptible Of division by
deed horizontally as well as perpendi-
cularly and that a purchase Of surface
limited the purchaser to enjoy the ag-
ricultural. The decision was made in
the case Of J. ]. Williams vs.. Benz.
Wilson, ct al, and is attracting much
comment from members Of the bar.

On the 9Th day Of September shet
President VILLAIN Mckinley, the
wounds inflicted afterward having re-
suited in the death Of the President.
The wheels of justice moved swiftly.
The trail of the assassin consumed $
hours and twenty-six minutes, and
covered period of only two days.
Practically all of this time was occu-
pied by the prosecution in presenting
a case so clear. so conclusive that even
had the prisoner entered the plea Of
guilty of insanity, it is doubtful If the
Jury would have returned verdict
different from the one rendered Tues
day.
The announcement was made Tues
day afternoon by the attorneys for
Czolgosz that the eminent alientsts
summoned by the Erie County Bar
Association and the district attorney,
to examine Czolgosz and to determine
his exact mental condition, had de-
clared him to be perfectly sane, had
destroyed the only stage Of a defense
that could have been put together and
no witnesses were called for the de-
fanse The witnesses for the state
were some whosaw the shooting and
the physicians who attended the Presi-
dent.
Before adjournment Judge White
announced that he would pronounce
sentence upon the defendant Thurs
day afternoon at 2 O'Clock. The prison.
er was taken at once through the tun-
mel under Delaware avenue back to
the iail. To all appearances he was
in no way affected by the result OF the
trial.
