REV. Mr.. HOLP REMARRIES.
Former Sioux Falls Pastor Adds An.
other Chapter to His Career.

wv NNNNPNN ~ ~ val wi
Chicago. oct. l1.-The Rev. Philip T..
Holp, well known throughout South Da-
kota and especially at Sioux Falls, where
he once served as pastor of the COngre-
g~ational church, who originated the ia
nous charges OF plagiarism against the
Rev. Dwight Newell Hills. now Of Brook
lyn, ana his bride formerly Miss Fuuuic
), Waud. who played such a prominent
part Ina hts recent life and who, as
Frances Jackson" was mentioned in his
drst wife's divorce pill, are spending their
honeymoon in Chicago.
Through having inscpcrababIy attached
TO the Rev. DR.. HilIIs, the suspicion that
some Of his choicest gems OF thought are
plagarizcd from the works Of the Rev.
Henry Ward Ececher and Or. David
Swing, the Rev. Mr.. Holp Is known
throughout the country. While a review
or Of religious publications on one Of the
Chicago afternoon papers, he first pub
Iished Deadly Parallels between The
works or Dr. HiIlis and the sermons OF
his famous predecessors. Or. HtlliS aC-
FUSED the Rev. M. Hop Of mcrcenary
motives, and since then a new collection
IF Deadly Parallels" has followed every
new publication of Or. Hills.
The wedding took place Thursday ait
rrnoon at the home OF her father Duke
Waud, at Kalamazoo.
The couple left at once for Chicago. 1t
was not until the Rev. Mr.. Hop became
he defendant IN a divorce suit while he
was pastor of the Congregational ChurCh
IT Angola, Ind, that the story Of his Nari-
GUS activities became puhliC. His wife
asserted that when she accidentally looked
into n drawer OF his desk one day during
lis absence on a lecture tour she discoV-
cred that he was leading a dual life.
In the drawer were said to be photo
-raphs Of actresses and other women. The
photograph with a sentimental quotation
on It's back was OF the mysterious Miss
Jackson Of Chicago. It was afterwards
discovered that "Franccs Jackson was
Miss Wand OF Kalamazoo, and that she
lived In Chicago.
Six months after she discovered the toll
tale contents Of the drawer, Mrs. Hop
rtarted divorce proceedings. Before the
divorce proceedings started, the Rev. Mr..
Hop had left Angola, Ind, and moved to
Chicago. lie lived at the fiat OF Miss
Waud. and she was throughout his iIrin
supporter and sympathizcr. She main
laiNcd that there was no sentiment in
their friendship, and that his wife mis-
interpreted their relations. Miss Waud as
tistcd Holp I'm his literary work.
simultaneously with the starting OF the
divorce proceedings I'm the civil courts, the
Angola Church society decided upon an
ecclesiastical trial Of the pastor. Though

FROM PARIS TO NEW YORK.
Visions Again of a Railroad Turner
Under Berina Straits.

oHucT DCTiuS
Brooklyn Eagle: Explorer De Windt
seems very much impressed with the
idea that it is commercially as well as
mechanically possible to establish an
all-rail route between Paris n New
York. He has been over the ground at
considerable expenditure of time and
an immense amount OF discomfort ana
hardship. The proposition to bridge
Bering straits he ridicules as the abb
sure dream Of certain Missionaries in
Paris, but he believes that a tunnei
could be built beneath those waters
and that the rest of the all-rail scheme
presents no particular engineering dif-
ficulties. Well, %supposing the tunnel
were constructed n the necessary ran
connections made through Alaska n
British Columbia, with h Canadian
Pacific on the one side Ind the Trans
Siberian railway on TIE other, what
would be the use of the 5000 or 6,O0O
miles Of track thus created?
We are now distant less than q week
from Paris ard not much more greatly
removed from most of the great CONT
mental centeTs west of st. Petersburg.
The discomforts of ocean travel have
been reduced to a minimum and It's
actual dangers to almost nothing. How
many people in the course or a year
would care to waste two weeks or more
in tedious overland travel between
America and Europe when they can
utilize the ocean route at a much less
expenditure of time and money. mere
is a limit in railroad construction, and
it would seem that Prince Hilkhoff was
"~iollying' MI. De Windt when he init
mated that the Russian government
would back a two-continent line as soon
as the explorer demonstrated its feasiA
bility. No doubt Alaska will some day
have a railroad system of it's own con-
Meeting with that of the great cana
dian trunk line to the south. but ii Will
be built with an eye to territorial trade
and not with any idea Of establishing
'unnel relations with inc in Asia.
