WOULD BURN 5000 CHURCHES.
Hamilton Colleges President Says
Bane of Religion is Division.

Binghamton, N. UT would be
better If five thousand churches were
burned" was the statement Of W. M.
Stryker, president Of Hamilton College,
during his sermon at the First Congre-
gational Church here. DR.. Stryker
had for his text, "The Modern In
depreciation of Providence" He was
telling that the tendency Of this age
has been division and war.
"This tendency is apparent even in
the body of Christine Church." said
he. I'm too many places churches have
been erected beyond the need of COM
munities now and for a long time to
come. Many are living at a poor,
dying rate, and it would be better if
five thousand of them were burned
and if the people would get together
in one large church. By so doing the
cause Of Christ and humanity would
be far better conserved"

were found to be free of all slugs in
the shells, but in this scene the villain
was really shot. The audience did not
at first realize that a man had been
killed. When the curtain was pulled
down Breed remained motionless until
some one came to him and found him
in the last throes of death. The man
who fired the shot was Frank Laugh
lin, Of Butte, Mont, who declared he
had no suspicion that the revolver
shells were loaded.

OLD sToREHousE uNEARTHED.
Interesting Discovery at Site Of Power
House Near Rosslyn.

An interesting discovery was made a
couple Of days ago when the men engaged
In excavating for power house for the
Old Dominion Railroad Company on the
Virginia side of the Potomac were at work.
They came to the foundation OF an old
brick building. the bricks of which were
Of the large size that were imported to this
country chiefly as ballast during the colo
NAL days. In the earth there was discov-
cred variety of relics that pointed to the
location having been that of trading post.
There were more than score Of old coins,
large number of thinfbles, remains Of &C.
count books and nearly destroyed merchan-
disc of various kinds
Mr.. Frank Martin Lande, the chief en-
gineer of the railroad, and IN charge of the
construction work. upon hearing of the
matter went to the place where the ex-
cavation was being made and took posses
sion of mitch of the valuable find. The
new power house site is 300 feet from the
waters edge and about 100 feet below the
southern end of the Aqueduct bridge.
Among the coins were pieces of the time
of Charles V and of George ". There
were also some Interesting coins minted
III colonial days in this country.
Mr.. Lande did not secure all of the rare
pieces that were turned up as the foreman
and some of the men got some of the relies.
1t Is an interesting matter of speculation
as to the reason for the burial of these
relics which We're found three feet under
ground. 1t Is not supposed from the man
ner in which the relics were discovered
that they were buried for safe keeping.
The indications rather point to the place
having been abandoned and the stores and
the cash box being left to be covered by
the lapse OF time.

MENTALLY UNBALANCED.
Miss Isabella Case Suffering From De-
lusiuual Iuaauity.

Miss Isabella Case. thirty-eight years old
who gave her occupation as that OF seam
stress. was placed under arrest yesterday
afternoon and taken to the house OF deten-
ton on suspicion that her mind was at
fected. Sne was arrested at the Treasury

and sent to the house of detention for ex-
animation. Early last night Drs Burch and
Wall made an investigation and reported
that she Is a victim Of delusional insanity
She will therefore be sent to st. Elizabeth's
Hospital for the Insane today
Miss Case told the physicians that she
came here four weeks ago to see the Presi-
dent because she thought he could straishten
out her troubles. The young woman. it Is
said, has been worker in Christian cir
cles for number Of years and recently be-
came possessed of notion that the Cath
ofic Church had been the cause of prevent
ing her marriage. Believing she was the
victim of conspiracy on the part OF Cath
Ollie people, she came to this city to see the
President. She went to the Treasury De-
partment yesterday afternoon and called
upon Secretary Shaw. Her conversation
created the belief that she was laborIng
under some brain trouble and the police
man was called.
During the time Miss Case has been in
this city she has been the guest of min
lister living on 9th street. The minister's
family and the friends of the young wom-
an In Haverhill, Mass, were notified of her
arrest and detention.

Hiyermen Afraid of Ice.

Vessel masters are very chary of char
tering to load for this city at this season
Of the year, fearing a sudden freeze might
catch them and force them to remain idle
for several weeks. AS a consequence the
merchants handling lumber and wood find
1t difficult to find vessels to load for this
port. though high freight rates are offered.
Many Of the smaller vessels that trade ex-
clusively on the river have been laid UP at
down-river points for the winter, and this,
too adds to the scarcity of vessels on the
river. Another factor in the dearth of
freight carriers is the fact that many of
the boats that during the summer carried
freight sare now employed in the oyster
business either as dredgers or runners.
The steamboat men wer fearing freeze
would follow the heavy snow Of yesterday,
but a day or two of very cold weather
would now be required to make enough ice
on the river to seriously interfere with the
movements Of vessels.
