Changes in Doctrine.
New York, May 9.-Presbyterian
creed revision appears to be near at
hand after prolonged and at times
acrimonious struggle within and with
out the ranks of that church.
1t has been learned that 227 OF the
235 Presbyterians of the Presbyterian
church in America voted solidly for
creed revision. as based on the eleven
overtures sent down by last years gen.
eral assembly. This tabulated official
vote was telegraphed several leading
Presbyterians in this city by the stat
ed clerk Of the general assembly. AT
the meeting Of the general assembly
to be held in Los Angeles, this month,
1t is believed the last obstacle to creed
revision will have been overcome and
the demands of Presbyterians be graf.

TRAVELLING FRAUD.

used the name of II. C. Harrison;
and at McCuns, Kan, about the
same time, calling himself Chas.
Lewis. He has used at different

collect snall amounts of money
from subscribers. To avoid such
frauds, persons wishing to sub

FATE OF THE SUCKER.

A Nebraska farmer answered
ore of those catchy ads setting
forth that a handsome widow
with considerable fortune want
ed a husband t. manage her inter-
ests, and y correspondence re-
suited. Soon ar engagement ex-
listed and the farmer went to Chi
cago with something over three
hundred dollars in mis- pocket.
Instead of rhe charming young
widow he met an elderly woman
who claimed to be her mother,
and while the two were taking
luncheon together vicious man
come in and demanded to know
what the farmer was doing with
his wife. The latter was forced
to give up the better part of the
ready cash he carried as a COM
promise, and escaped to his Ne
braska home, thankful that his
life he'd been spared. The "suck-
ers"' who get taken in by these
questionable schemes get little
sympathy from the public. How
ever, these scoundrc's who per-
petrate the outrages deserve to
be severely punished. Expos
ures should warn others from
falling into the sane snares.--

Arkansas City. Feb. 27-The Traveller
says:
A 2-year-old child in this city is just
now the cause of trouble enough to
easily award it first prize any place.
1t is too young to realize the trouble
it has caused, and is causing, yet the
child has been the direct cause of the
arrest of both parents.
The parents are James B. Woods, of
this city, and the woman, who has been
sworn as Pearl Woods, the wife of
James B. Woods. but whose real name
is Mrs. Miller.
The history of the trouble dates back
several years. About five or six years
ago, when Pearl Phillips was IA years
of age, she ran away from her home
and married a man by the name of
Miller. MfIler's business seems to have
been that of a fair follower and he
made his wife take positions with
shows and exhibitions of the kind seen
at reunions, fairs, etc
He is said to have cruelty treated her
and she soon lost all the love she had
for her husband. In the meantime she
met Woods. who is a sort of Snowman,
his speciality being shows of the kind
mentioned. He is known to every one
in this city and ever since a small boy
has been in the business.
She fell in love with Woods and de-
serted her husband and, it is said, has
lived with Woods ever since, or at
least until a few weeks ago
They came to this city several
months ago and she began suit for di-
vorce from her husband, but in the
meantime went under the name of
Woods. Judge Kreamer was her attor-
ney in the divorce proceedings and it
is said that Woods was putting up the
necessary money to fight the case.
Some trouble came up between them
the nature of which is not given out
and Woods took his clothing and left
her About two years ago there was a
child born to Woods and the woman,
which child bears the name of James
B. Woods. Jr.
When the recent trouble came up
Woods wanted the baby and went to
the home of the woman, who lives at
present with her mother on South ID
street. where he took fOrcible possession
Of it and carried it away Immediately
the child's mother went before Judge
Dunn and swore out complaint charg-
ing him with kidnapping the child Con-
sta bic Gray arrested Woods, and acting
upon the advice of the counsel for the
woman, c. T. Atkinson, restored the
baby to its mother. Woods gave bond
and will have a hearing before Judge
Dunn next Monday morning.
It is said that Woods offered the moth
er $50 for the child. He also says he
wants it given to some disinterested
third party where it will have a heGne
and be we'll cared for.
The mother. very naturally, wants to
keep her child. and says she is able to
care for it if Woods would let her alone.
She says that every time she tries to get
work of any kind he knocks on her.
and this prevents her from getting suit
able work.
Monday afternoon Mrs. Woods, moth
er of James Woods, went before Judge
