Burned at Sea.

Eastport. n. Y, July 2l.-It is now
positively known here that a large vessel,
presumably steamer, was burned yes
terday afternoon and evening, at sea, OPP
posite here. During the night the flames
could be seen from the Bellport station
rising agains the sky. None OF the crew
or passengers have reached the beach,
they being probably rescued by some
coasting vessel, while the prevailing
northerly winds have prevented any
wreckage coming on shore. A vigilant
watchout is being maintained for any
signs which will indicate the fate of the
unfortunate vessel.

200 feet long, and possibly barge,
either oil or coal laden. She was about
four miles to the southwark, and a steam
err was close by her, when sighted by the
Aurania.
New York, July 21.-The vessel seen
on fire off PASSPORT, L. l., last mig hit was
the British wooden shio Creedmore,
which sailed from New York on Sunday
for Liverpool with a cargo of naptha on
board. Her crew of twenty, including her
master, Capt. Dumfries, were landed at
Wood Hol, Mass this afternoon by a
tugboat, which took them off the blazing
vessel. The loss on cargo, which was

THERE HAVE been many causes LOT
disruptions in the church since the days
of the apostles, and it now appears that
sawdust plum buildings and lawn party
threaten to disrupt the Diamond Hill
Methodist Church at Mianus, Conn.
One faction of the church wants the lawn
party with the sawdust plum pudding,
while the other objects. One Of the OPP
nosition claimed that it was too costly to
buy articles on the sawdust-plum-pud-
ding-grab-bag proposition. Rev. E. F.
Pipper pastor of the church, is trying to
pour oil on the troubled waters. Mean
while tie Ladies Aid Society, in an ef'
fort to raise part of the minister's salary,
asked each of the sixty-three members
for SO each. All refused to subscribe
except thirteen. Because of the 70"
over the lawn party one.half the church
threatens to resign and Rev. Piper Is
fearful that he will soon have a church
without congregation. He has sided
with the "no lawn party" faction. 1t il
the conviction of many that the church
errs in entering into worldly enterprises
for the purpose of raising money. Tue
church was not originally intended to en-
gage in the ice cream or oyster business
nor to attempt to attract people by lawn
parties and sawdust buildings.

The New York Stock Market.

New York, July q, IL a. m.--The stock
market this morning was considerably un-
settled, being unfavorably Influenced by the
apprehension Of the foreign markets regard
ing the actions OF the Russian cruisers in the
Red Sea. First prices. were generally
lower. Small rallies followed, and these
were succeeded by fresh concessions. None
of the losses in any conspicuous instance
quite reached a point. At the close Of the
first hour the selling pressure was somewhat
checked and prices were little better.

The Virginia Summer School of Art.

One OF the most interesting education
al features in Virginia this year is the
opening of the Summer School of Art, at
the University.
Two young and successful artists are
at the head Of this school--F. Graham
Cootes and Rae Sloan Bredin. Mr..
Cootes is himself Virginia man, aud
an A. NJ. of the University, and is fresh
from his work in the New York School
of Art.
Mr.. Bredin has been one of the instruc-
tors of the Chase Shinnecock Summer
School, is director Of the New Jersey
School of Art, and has also substituted
for VIM Chase in his own work.
There is so little regular study OF Art
done in the South, that the opening OF
this Summer School has attracted wide
spread interest, and many hope it will
become a prominent feature of Virginia
education.
The work is planned after that of our
| finest art centres, andi is from life, with
good bit ofout-door work added, the won
derful Blue Ridge Mountains forming a
fitting background for sketches. The
pupils are enthusiastic, some being be-
ginners, while others have had training
in well-known schools, and all seem de-
lighted tograsp this opportunity to work
in the summer under fine instructors. Add
to this the fact that the studios are in
the university buildings, and that the
school is surrounded by the beautiful aud
historic grounds hallowed by the memory
OF Jefferson, Monroe, and Americas
strange ftfuI genius Edgar Allen Poe
and we find an atmosphere that must be
helpful to both the students and instruc-
| tora of a school of art
