HAPPILY
ENDED
WAS THE SENSATIONAL coLoRED
CHURCH TRIAL IN MAGISTRATE
GoRDoN,S COURT THURS
DAY EVENING.
Rev. Watson Agrees to Leave the
Church Forever and Church Agrees to
Pay Him All That is Due Him.

A happy compromise was effected ut
the close of the trial OF the Rev. ]. 4.
Watson, hitherto the pastor OF the Mt.
Zion Colored Baptist church. held in
Magistrate Samuel w. Gordon's court
Thursday afternoon on warrant which
had been sworn out against him by
members of his own flock for disturb
ing the religious worship IN his own
church.
Rev. Watson and two or three of his
congregation got into fuss some time
ago which grew and assumed consider
nbic proportions in the church. At a
special meeting Of the Board of Trustees
Watson was fired from his passionate by
vote of thirty -one to one, but he held
that the action was void as he was the
only man who could call meeting of
the Board. He refused to DO fired and
kept on as pastor.
Last Sunday he went in the church
and opened up the services, notwith-
standing the fact that another preacher
had been secured to fill his place. Mem
bers OF the congregation called in the
police to put Watson out, the meeting
broke up in confusion. and. as the at
torney for the plaintiff argued for his
clients. 'stfle members Of the Mt. Zion
Baptist church went forth from that
edifice hast Sunday. hungry andsdry for
lack of the enjoyment Of their usual
Sabbath religious exercises"
While 1t was conclusively shown that
Watson deliberately disturbed the relig-
ions services in the church the plaintiffs
asked that the court place him under
a peace bond to keep from disturbing
the Mt. Zion congregation in the future.
The court effected compromise
after consulting both Of the attorneys
in the case, which was in substance that
Rev. Watson keep away altogether from
the church and let the Mt. Zion Baptistsl
worship in peace and harmony and that
the church people pay the balance due
on his salary and have nothing more to
do with him.
And so. happily ended a trial which
stirred up the members of cclorcd
church congregation to pitch of in
tense excitement and caused a distinct
sensation in coiored society circles.

Relative to the rumored improvements
on the Air line of the Consolidated SER

moved. President Melen OF the New
York. New Haven and Hartford railroad
mas made the following statement:
AT an interview with representa- tives
OF the people OF Middletown various mat
ters were discussed which were more in
the nature OF possibilities than anything
else No definite statements were made
by the company as TO what II could do
or was desirious OF doing: 1t was only
suggested that the action OF the people
or Middletown in connection with the
cemetery would largely influence the rail-
road company on its plans and would
probably lead TO expenditures being made
on the Air line route which. without the
elimination OF the cemetery. would prob
ably be made upon the Shore line route
The Interview was most pleasant and the
representatives left disposed to do what
they could TO promote the mutual inter-
