an early day 10 complete its western
branch from Birmingham 10 Atlanta A
bridge win be constructed over the Chat

and a through line established through
Rockmont from Birmingham TO Atlanta.
Concerning the proposed improve
ments. the Atlanta Constitution says:
AT present the Seaboard comes into
line 10 HowelIs Station and from that
point into the city on the tracks OF the
Western and Atlantic. It is understood
that the present pIlns contemplate hay-
ing the road cross the river at the pump
ing station. then up the public road TO
WoodalI Creek The track will run along
this stream TO Howells Station and win
then enter upon the private right of way
which WAS bought some time ago
1T Is believed that the route contcm-
plated by the Seaboard from Atlanta TO
Birmingham viii shorten somewhat the
time between these cities The statement
was made yesterday that work on the
bridge over the river at the PUMPING
station would begin at once. and il is
therefore believed that the Seaboard

BRITISH CHARTOGRAPHY
DEFINES BOUNDARY LINE
Globe Sustains Contentious of This
Country as to Alaska.

President Roosevelt and Secretary
Root made an interesting discovery

in tho Cabinet room Saturday
The subject OF the conversation turn
ed TO the coming Iabors OF the Alaska
Boundary Commission. OF which Mr..
Root is TO be a member. and they con-
suited the large geographical globe that
stands near the Cabinet table The globe
is so big that the map of Alaska appears
on a large scale. and they easily traced
the boundary line between that Territory
and the British possessions.
To their surprise they found that the
boundary as shown there sustains the
contention of the United States in all
particulars, although some printed lines
on the globe show that Il was prepare /
some years ago under the direction Of

PASTOR BREACHES
TO SPIRITS, HE SAYS
Gather Around Him AS He
Sits in Study.

TRENTON. y. J.. Feb. I6.-The Rev.
DR.. Hugo Wendell. pastor of the largest
German Lutheran church in this city.
is meeting with much opposition from
some members Of his congregation on
account of his belief in regard to spirits.
He declares he has almost constant com
munication with them. but denies he is
a spiritualist. He says the distinction
is that while spiritualists deny the di-
vinity Of Christ and believe all spirits
are bIest. he believes in the orthodox
Christian religion and knows some
spirits are happy and others unhappy.
Nearly every night in the week. the
pastor says. he sits I'm his study and a
congregation of spirits gathers about
him. He breaches to them. the same IS
he does TO the members OF his congre-
CATION. He says he has succeeded in
bringing together the spirits Of the de-
parted and living relatives and placing
them in communication with one an
other. He has. he declares. q pile Of
manuscripts that he has taken down rs
the spirits conveyed their messages to
him.
Some OF this manuscript is in his own
handwriting. but moro. he says. is in
the handwriting Of the Angel Rafael.
All OF the manuscript is in German, but
there is an apparent difference in the
two handwritings. though there are
some similarities. This may be account
ed for by the fact that the angel uses
the hand OF the pastor when he wishes
to write. There is talk of trying Pastor
Wendell for heresy before the synod. II
found guilty. he could not be ousted
from the church unless it were the wish
Of his congregation.
He also claims TO have cured disease
by hypnotiziug his patients.
