Official board OF Asbury M. +. Church.
to return for another year as pastor. Mr..
Poulson submitted an interesting report
to the quarterly conference which fol-
lows:
our official connection with this charge
has been to us most delightful Not
withstanding the peculiar circumstances
under which we came thereto. not sim
gle unpleasant thing has occurred TO mar
our fellowship. Our association with the
official board has been cordial and friend
y to tho last degree. Every member Of
the church with whom We have come IN
contact has treated us with thd utmost
courtesy and consideration---All- the az
fairs Of the society are in good condition.
The financial and spiritual interests Of
the church have steadily advanced Tho
last religious services we have held have
been the very best OF the year. We re-
gret, however. that much more has not
been accomplished. We have striven 10
secure an offering Of some amount for
Zach of the objects Of benevolence. While
two or three Of these collections have
been in full, some OF them we are sorry
to say have fallen short of last year; but
his seemed TO be unavoidable. The off-
,ial board has carefully inspected the
ist Of church members ana ordered the
lxpurgation of many names of persons
Who were deceased or unknown. thus re-
lucing the total number of membership
to its true basis. The same course has
been pursued by the superintendent with
reference to the Sunday school.

Ohio Bridge Company Has Judgment

WRIT OF ATTACHMENT

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BEAVER. Pa, December 23.-In the face
of an enraged and kissing mob Of citizens
and county office-holders and employees,
Sheriff Gibson swooped down on this, the
county seat of Butler county, this after
noon with writ of attachment and seized
the county treasury. In it is a surplus of
$4,000 and the Christmas salaries Of the
county officers and employees who were to
have been paid today.
The seizure was the result of Judgment
for $45O, 600 obtained against the county by
the Ohio Bridge Company. The officials and
employees knew the writ Of attachment had
been issued several days ago, but never be-
lieved the sheriff would be allowed to put.
1t in force. Yesterday, however, when 1t
became apparent that the order of the
court was to- be carried out, there was a
wild scramble to get out of the doomed
treasury money to run the officials over the
holiday season. A few of the bigger ofi1-
cials, 1t Is said, were successful in obtain
ing warrants which allowed them to get
out their salaries this morning but the
smaller fry met with no such success. Ac-
cordingiy when Sheriff Gibson and three
deputies came here from Butler this morn
ing they were confronted by an angry and
jeering mob, who promised all sorts of re-
taliation. physical and political. if they
should dare enforce their writs The sheriff
was unmoved by threats, however, and to-
night the treasury is in his hands, as well
as the Office of the county commissioners,
and he will collect the revenues of both
until the big judgment is satisfied.

RUSSIAN HORRORS
DESCRIPTION IN DETAIL PROVES
NARROWING.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, December 23,--A
description of mob horrors in Russia is
contained in a letter just received by DR..
Max S. Mandell of this city from friend
in Ekaterinoslav. 1t is dated November
10. The letter says in part:
: 1--WE were saved by the kindness OF a
Christian friend who gave us a place to
hide in, and kept watch for us himself.
Three days before, early in the morning,
the cry, Kill the Jewsr spread like Wild
fire all over the town, especially In the
district where we live. and ere we had a
chance to think what to do the mob began
to batter the adjoining house and kill its
inmates in most brutal way, regardless
of sex or age.
Our friend. a Mr.. Pregov, on hearing
the ferocious hurrahs of the mob. thought
He took Us to his stable. where we re-
mained with our two little ones for three
days without moTsel of food or a drop
of water. but with horrible death staring
us In the face every moment of the tfrne
MANY have lost their lives, In addition
to similar sufferings; still more remain
cripples for life with no means of support
Others were compelled to witness the brutal
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of their dear ones before
they were killed themselves. My clerk told
me that he saw how the mob overlook
helpless Jewish woman, who apparently
had rum to a place of safety carrying a
child In her arms. The beast wrenched the
infant out OF its mothers arms and dis
membered 1t, holding out every part OF 1t to
her face and then forced the hysterical
mother into shame which killed her
This frightful butehery would not have
ended so soon were It not for the heroic
and armed interference on the part OF the
social revolutionists and q number of
students"

Terrific Explosion Of Dynamite Near
Cumberland Md.


Special Dispatch to The Star
CUMBERLAND, Md, December 23.-A
terrific explosion last night about 10 o'clock
of 5000 pounds of dynamite stored in the
powder house of Mccoy & Nugent's camp,
near Magnolia, w. Va, twenty-three miles
east of here, where the contractors are fin
ishing Kessler tunnel. on the western Mary
land extension, entirely wiped out the pow
der house, wrecked the blacksmith shop,
eight cars and part of the track. Window
glass in houses fully a mile away was
broken and the noise of the explosion was
heard fifteen miles away from the scene.
Charles Dixon, powder man for the camp
is missing. and 1t is not known but that he
was blown to atoms No trace OF. him could
be found today, and at the place where the
powder house stood there is an immense
hole in the ground. The powder house stood
100 yards from the camp, and just before
the explosion took place Dixon went over
to flx up the fires in the powder house stove
to keep the dynamite from freezing. It is
thought the building had caught fire from
the stove before Dixon arrived, and that this
f1re caused the explosion. AS no trace of
Dixon could be found the camp men think
he ran away, knowing that the fire meant
an explosion. Although the blacksmith
shop was blown down a mule that had been
housed there for the night was uninjured.

A Picturesque Affair.

HELSINGFoRS, Finland undated. by
courier to st. Petersburg December 23-
The convocation of the Finnish diet, mark
Ing simultaneously the restoration Of Fin
nish liberties and the last appearance on
the European stage of the parliament con-
sisting of the four ancient estates. the
mobiles, the clergy, the burghers and the
peasants. was an exceedingly picturesque
affair. The old world ceremonial was fol-
lowed. Heralds made their appearance in
the streets summoning the estates to the
magnificent cathedral, where amid gorgeous
trappings, prayers were said and Te Deum
was chanted in the Swedish and Finnish
tongues. Then the estates, headed by Gov
Gen. Gerhard and his suite in brilliant uni
forms, marched In an imposing procession
between cheering crowds to the palace over
looking the sea. There. standing in front
OF the giided throne surmounted with the
golden lion of Finland and the double
headed eagle of Russia, the governor gem
eral. in the name of his imperial master
gave back the ancient liberties to the hardy
race OF the north whose brave struggle
against the classification of their country
has attracted the sympathy of the world.
The audience at the palace contained many
persons who had suffered in exile rather
than submit to this. Baron Won Born,
marshal Of the nobility who replied to the
emperors speech in behalf of his estate
and M. Pekka, who spoke on behalf of the
peasantry, had returned to Finland since
leery acted as spokesman for the clergy
and M. Won Pfale, a banker for the
burghers
Imperial Manifesto Accepted.
The replies of the presidents of the es-
tates were cordial in vein, but each took
care to say that the imperial manifesto was
accepted as the restoration of the origi-
nal constitution and rights of Finland guar
anteed by Alexander T."
At the same time. they added their as
surance that the emperor might have fun
confidence in the loyalty Of the Firms under
a regime of legislative, executive and ju-
dieial freedom. Baron Won Born also took
occasion to say that "the universal satisfac-
tion with which the world welcomed the
inauguration Of a new era for Russia Is
heartily echoed by Finland and at the con-
clusion Of the ceremonies he called for three
cheers for the emperor, which were given
enthusiastically. Throughout the ceremony
