WORSHIP OF STONES.
Peculiar Religious Notions of Super

Peculiar Religious Notions of Super
stitious People.
When the Japs captured Mukden
they found there the sacred black
stone of the Manchu dynasty of Chi
nese. This is the center of the uni
verse, according to old Chinese super
stitions, and added venerability comes
to Mukden from the graves of the
emperors near by.
The Do-ring in Lhassa, Thibet is
another center of the universe, which
according to the Thibetan priests, is
shaped exactly like the sholder blade
of a sheep. All distances are meas
ured from it, and it is very sacred.
Another center is the Kaaba in
Mecca, a dirty black stone let into the
wall of the most sacred mosque and
polished every years by the lips of
thousands of worshippers. The
Arabic word for stone, "Hagar," ap-
pears in Scriptural writings as a
proper name. The Mecca pilgrimage
is "haj," and those who have taken
it are known as "Hadji."
Even so sane a people as the an
cient Greeks came pretty near wor-
shipping a stone-the "Omphalos, or
center of the earth at Delphi. The
Romans set up stone of great con-
sequence in Rome, but for purposes
of measurement, not worship, and so
the London stone" of today is used.

UNUSUAL ENGLIsH SCANDAL.
Member of Parliament Accused of Sc
duction.

uuCtlOn.
London, May 11.-Scandalous reve-
lations which have come to light this
week have afforded choice morsel
for gossip in official and social cir
cles.
1t appears from the rumors going
the rounds that a member of parlia-
ment and very prominent politician
has only narrowly escaped becoming
the leading figure in a very grave
scandal. The charge against him is
one of seduction, the victim being the
young daughter of one of his tenants
The girl is quite young, considerably
under 20, and when her condition be-
came known she revealed certain
facts of particularly disgraceful ma
ture against the NJ. P.
Her father, according to the story
at once visited the politician and
charged him with being the cause of
his daughters downfall. At first an
attempt was made to carry the mat
ter through with a high hand, and
the farmer was ordered to leave the
house as a blackmailer. He quickly
took his departure, having first of all
knocked his landlord down in his own
library, and at once placed the matter
in the hands of we'll known firm of
London solicitors, who prepared to
make matters very warm for the pol
itician. After much fencing, the lat
ter ultimately broke down and admit
ted everything.
In his eagerness to prevent the mat
ter becoming public, he consented to
pay any sum that might be suggested
and it is said the matter was finally
settled for something like $4,000.

SOUTHERN BAPTIsTs CONVENE.
Fifty-Ninth Annual Convention at
Kansas City.

Kansas City, Mo-, May 1.-THE ho-
tel registers are rapidly filling with
the names of prominent Baptist di-
vines and laymen from all parts of
the South. They are the delegates
and visitors to the fifty-ninth annual
Southern Baptist convention, which
will begin a four days session here
tomorrow. Indications point to an at
tendance of fully 1000 delegates.
On account of the death of DR.. ]. P.
Eagle, who was elected president of
the convention at the last meeting,
the Rev. DIR. Stephens of Little Rock,
will preside. Many important mat
ters are to come up for discussion and
action. In addition to the usual re-
ports from the various mission boards,
there will be a report from the COM
sion appointed by the last convention
to investigate the work of the negro
Baptists and their cooperation with
the whites. This will be the commits
sion's first report and it is looked for
ward to with considerable interest.

Topeka, Kan, May 11.-Between
two and three hundred lay and minis
terial delegates, including 20 women,
and a large number of other visitors
are gathered in Topeka for the trien-
nial meeting of the General Confer
ence of the United Brethren church.
The general conference is the highest
tribunal of the church, and in 1t all
ecclesiastical power, granted by dis
cipline, is vested. Its province is to
define the boundaries of the annual
conference, hear and pass upon re-
ports of geenral church officers, make
end repeal rules of discipline, settle
cases submitted on appeal from the
decisions Of annual conferences, and
elect bishops and other church Off
GERS.
In addition to delegates represent
ing all parts of this country and Can
ada there are representatives present
from the ecclesiastical jurisdictions in
Germany, Africa, Japan, China and
the Philippines.
The conference was formally opened
today, Bishop Nicholas Castle of Ore
gon, presiding, and owing to the un-
usually large amount of important
business to come up it will probably
be two or three weeks before the ses-
sions are concluded. The sessions are
being held in the hall of representa-
tiyes of the state capitol, where the
delegates were formally welcomed to-
day by Governor Hoch and the Rev.
Charles NJ. Sheldon.
An important matter to come be-
fore the present conference is the ac-
tion relative to the proposed union of
the Congregational, the Methodist
Protestant and the United Brethren
churches. This has been subject OF
wide interest for some time, and both
the Congregational and Methodist
Protestant denominations have voted
favorably in their general represen-
tative meetings. It is believed that
the general conference of the United
Brethren will likewise favor the pro
posed union.
Two other matters that will engage
the attention of the conference are th'
election Of two new bishops and a re
vision of the administrative plan o
the missionary work. If carried, tn
latter provision will make the hom'
and foreign missionary department
each subject to board of control an
to a secretary of supervision.
The educational, general missionary
wonen's missionary, evangelistic, Sun
day school and young peoples worl
will all be reviewed, and some change
will be made in their plans and meth
DDS of work. The reports of the vari
Gus officers and committees will shoJ
the past year to have been one o
great activity for the various branche

INDIANS MISERABLE END.
Winnebagoes Are Slowly Perishing in
Wisconsin.

wisconsin.
The once mighty Winnebago tribe
in Wisconsin,, is facing a miserable
end, although it has 100000 with the
national government to its credit. The
red men are dying by scores of con-
sumption and are a heavy expense to
several towns.
According to the decision Of the
United States supreme court, it is be-
lieved the towns in which i'll and
poor Indians reside must pay for their
care, as they would any INDECENT citi-
zen. Illness prevails and hundreds of
dollars are needed to treat the de-
crepit warriors.
The resident Indian farmer, A. P.
Jones, is authority for the statement
that consumption, unless stopped, will
soon exterminate the tribe.
1t is said that little attention is paid
to the marriage rites among the In
dians in this vicinity, which has re-
suited in demoralized conditions.

SMITH ALLOWED
TO VISIT WIFE
Defaulting Tax Collector
Bids Farewell to Home
That He Made Desolate

For the last time until his sem
tence is served Edward ]. Smith, the de-
faulting Tax Collector, was allowed to
visit his home yesterday. Despite the
fact that the news of his last carouse
with Leona Brooks had become known,
Smith asked to be allowed to say good-by
to his family.
The prisoner was escorted to his home
by two deputies and was left there for
two hours Judge Lawlor granted the
permit for the visit
The foretaste Smith has received in the
County Jail of what is before him has
told upon him already. He has grown
thinner and his fiabby face is more un-
healthy looking. The five days grace
granted to him will expire to-day, and
he win be taken to Folsom Prison.
Though Foreman Andrews of the Grand
Jury is positive that Smith could take
many more with him to the penitentiary,
the defaulter has not yet shown any dis
position to reveal the identity of his CO.
conspirators. The Grand Jury has evi-
dence that two rings. one in the City Hall
and the other working on the outside,
shared Smiths stealings. Not word on
this subject could be got out of Smith,
however. The defaulter was so incensed
at the questions put to him by Andrews
at The Needles that he refused to talk
further with grand jurymen.

The little gasoline launch Dewey was
sunk IN the bay by the steamer Arctic
yesterday, and Robert r. Howley. the
engineer. and Alexander Miller, pas
senger. were drowned. The body of the
engineer was not recovered, but that Of
the passenger was picked up by the boat
lowered from the Arctic.
Frank Barbee. owner of the launch, his
brother. Henry Barbee, and w. r. Scott
were also aboard. but the rescuers saved
their lives
Barbee went out to board the Arctic.
which had just arrived with cargo Of
lumber from Eureka. He had Howley
steer 10 get alongside the steamer. when
suddenly it was found that the rudder
" Tould not work. The Dewey, instead of
gcing alongside, ran directly in front of
the steamer.
The Arctic struck the frail craft a
hard blow and smashed it to pieces. The
launch sank at once and Howley went
down with it. The Barbee brothers,
Scott and Miller jumped into the bay.
In the meantime Captain L. A. Nelson
of the Arctic lowered boat and threw
life-preservers overheard. The Barbees
and Scott were picked up by the ships
boat and they pulled Miller on board.
But he was dead. Everything possible
was done 10 resuscitate him, without
avail. AS soon as the Arctic reached the
dock Miller was taken to the Harbor
Emergency Hospital. but the physicians
there could not bring him back to life.
Frank Barbee is greatly distressed over
the accident. He says that Captain Mel
son is in no way to blame, but that the
fault entirely rests with the Dewey,
whose steaming gear refused to work.
Howley had recently come from the
East and Barbee knew very little about
him. The Dewey was valued at S1750
Miller's body was later removed to the
Morgue.
