Special Correspondence OF The Star
WARSAW, Poland, May o. 1905.
- ERHAPS no country in the world,
and certainly no country in east
ern Europe, can show so many in
II stances OF feminine influence In all
movements, political and social as
Poland. once more Is history repeated, and
g woman is at the head Of a religious re-
vival which has set the country agog with
party faction; for the new sect has declared
open war against politics in general and pa
triotsm In particular.
II is needless to say that such sect has
gained the approval and even the protec-
ton Of the Russian government. These re-
vivalists call themselves the Sons OF
Mary" because they profess 10 follow ex-
actly the rules for conduct laid down by
Christ: but their opponents scornfully dub
them Cutters" because their priests wear
black cuffs to distinguish them from those
priests who have remained under the con-
troll OF the Polish bishops. Their follow
ers, mostly drawn from the peasants, num-
Der 10000 laymen and 100 priests.
AS matter OF fact the idea of the re-
Vlval first originated In the brain of q pious
Capucine monk a certain Father Honor
atus OF Move Miasto, who more than twelve
years ago tried to induce the priests of the
Roman Catholic Church In Poland to lead
simpler lives and cease to extort money
from the poorer classes. especially in re-
spect 10 fees for performing baptisms, mar
riages and funerals. Indeed. there is a
proVerh which says that the cow generally
follows the Polish peasant to his grave,
meaning that the priest will not bury the
deceased under an extravaganza fee, which
necessitates the sale OF the family COW.
-
But Father Ho1oratus died before he
could win more than four priests TO his
way OF thinking, and no more was heard
OF the revival until some three or four
years later, when woman, Felicia Koz-
iowska. a clairvoyant, who previously had
earned her living by making church vest
ments IN the cathedral city of Plock. came
suddenly upon the scene and assumed the
leadership OF the crusade. II is difficult to
say exactly how much power she claimed
at the beginning. but It seems to be quite
certain that the few young priests to whom
she spoke her ideas of reforming the clergy
believed her TO have received her direc-
lions from God during vision. They eager
" adopted her plans for organizing a re
vival. and the movement rapidly spread
among the lower clergy OF the diocese of
PlOck.
which she claims 10 receive divine COM
mands for the direction Of her followers,
who call her Holy Mother and blindly

Those who approach her do so on their

In such way that It seemed to confirm
this statement also. Her priests began to
work with redoubled vigor in view OF the
short time left to them and TO attack the
higher clergy for their extravagant living,
proceeding which the older priests and bish-
ops hercely resented. They saw with alarm
that the clergy under KozIowska's influence
took vows that they would not touch meat
and alcohol would not smoke, play cards
or take any part in politics. and that they
would not take any fees from the poor
classes for baptisms. marriages or funerals,
these fees being great source of income
for both the town and country clergy.
The bishop began TO forbid the Cutters"
to teach in the seminaria, or schools for
training priests. and ordered Kozlowska to
be put under medical treatment. Kozlow-
ska fiouted them. however. saying that II

LENT INTERFERES WITH BERNHARDT.
Little Rock Clergyman Urges Strict 0b' seryanCe of lent Even 10 Idb0Oing
 she Divine Sarah.

Little Rock, March 6. A pre- found feeling among church goers in Little Rock, on the question of hearing Mime. Bern hardt in "Cami!le" tonight, has been created by a sermon preached Sunday by the Rev. G. Gordon Smeade, of Christ Church. the most fashionable church in the city.
 Dr. Smeade brought the ques- tion of observing Lent in ac- cordance with the laws of the church squarely before his A- gregation. While he did not ab- solutely forbid attendance at the production at Forrest Park, he placed the matter in such light that 1t was apparent that such attendance would not be in keep ing with Lent.
 The one point emphasized by Dr. Smeade in his sermon was that church-goers should not violate their consciences in con- sidering the propriety of hearing Bernhardt. After bringing out this point he proceeded to say that the condition brought out by the coming visit of Bernhardt was one that had never before confronted church-goers in Little Rock. The most famous actress in the world-a woman of the highest artistic accomplishments was to visit the city during the Lenten season, when strict Episcopalians were supposed to forego such pleasures.
 The opportunity was a rare one, he said. but even in such a case did it justify an attendance? Dr. Smeade then said that a final decision lay within the consciences of the church mem bers. But in making this final decision he thought the church should be (. unit in it's action.
 As a result of Dr. Smeade's sermon a number of members of Christ church who have pur- chased tickets for the perform ance this evening will not attend.

ARKADELPHlA OIL PROBE.
Much Activity With Indications of the
 Existence of OH.

Philadelphia, March 6-Con- siderable interest is being devel- oped here in the oil prospects. On the Henderson property, near the city limits, the Caddo Oil and Gas Company is drilling well which is making fine pro- gress, with the very best indica- tions of oil in paying quantities.
 Across the Ouachita river and a few miles south of this city Captain Grayson of the Arkadel- phia Lumber Company is putting in machinery of the very latest design for drilling a well, and in the same territory another strong company of New York capitalists has been drilling a we'll for some months and claims it has sTuck oil in paying quantities.
 This company has large land holding near the city, on which it has one drill working. Work on this we'll has been going on for some time with stronger evidences every day of being a great success. Old oil men de- clare that the indications are the best they have ever seen in an undeveloped field.

Dinsmore After SeCretaryship.

A Washington dispatch says: Former Congressman Hugh Dins- more of Fayetteville, Ark, has entered the race against Charles A. Edwards for the secretary ship of the national democratic congressional committee. AL though Edwards has served in that capacity for several years and has a number of friends on the committee, the packers of Dinsmore claim that he will be elected
 The osition is more important than remunerative, because the incumbent moves upon a large stage and has to do with nation al figures and issues. There is no stated salary, but the secre- tary is allowed an expense ac- count.
 The strongest influence against Dinsmore is in Representative Griggs of Georgia, who is a warm personal friend of Ed wards, and will be elected chair man. Mir. Griggs has stated that if he is elected next Tues day he proposes to inaugurate an active campaign of education with a view to placing the six tieth con~ress in the hands of the democrats.

HUTCHINS ABSENT.
self-Styled Detective Forfeits $500
Bond in Superior Court.

The following from Duluth paper
relative to the case of Tom Hutchins,
he erstwhile person, will be of in
terest to Grand Forks people.
T.. s. Hutchins, charged with big
amy, did not put in appearance when
MS case was called in the Superior
'unicipal court yesterday and the
$500 cash bail he had put up to guar
tntee his presence on the call of the
Ease was declared forfeited. as was
predicted in rumor published in the
Times of recent date.
It.had been intimated for some time
that Hutchins would prefer forfeit of
bail money rather than face trial,
therefore, his absence came as no sur
prise to the Superior authorities.
District Attorney Foley recently re-
ceived letter from Hutchins, which
purported to have been written at
Hong Hong, China, but. the envelope
was postmarked from town in Cana
ia. The letter stated that the writer
vas on foreign mission and there
was possibility that he would not
return to Superior to confront a very
grave charge which was held over
him. Mr.. Foley said the charge would
be held against Hutchins and every
possible endeavor made to bring him
to justice.
Hutchins first figured in the police
circles Of Superior when he was mar
ried to Miss Mile Mellquist, of st.
Cloud, by Justice of the Peace French
in September last. It was subse-
quently learned by Miss Mellquist's
parents In st. Cloud that Hutchins
had wife. and seven children living
In Crookston. The facts of his second
matrimonial venture came out when
Hutchtns wrote to wife No. 1, of this
city. telling of his latest escapade and
asking forgiveness.
Instead OF acquiescing in the plans
Of the erring husband, wife No. / in
formed the police Of his unfaithful-
ness, which resulted In Hutchins' ar
rest at Duluth, where he had been en-
ployed at a leading hotel.
Hutchins was subsequently taken to
Superior, where the charge Of bigamy
was lodged against him. After sever
al days at the county Jail, friends
came to his rescue and secured his
release on bail. During his prelimin-
airy trials In the lower court Hutchins
was defended by Attorney w. p. Craw-
ford. y

Storm on Man.

Weather wise prophets are issuing
bulletins Of the rain and shine in
Mars. The most tumultuous tempests
that the elements offer the earth
dweller are holidays compared with
the storms Of two weeks and again of
Al days In length which Prof. Picker
ing of Harvard has found raging
around Martians. The clouds Of Mars
are always light yellow. The desert
regions are a darker shade of vel. ow.
Long duration of storms and long
clear intervals between are character
istics of Marian weather. One posi-
BILE reason for the great meteorologi-
cal changes is the greater tenuity of
atmosphere there. Mars presents vast
and conspicuous changes in appear
ance, whereas Marian astronomer,
looking towards earth, would find that
the annual changes which he could
perceive over the surface of our plan
ct present considerable sameness and
lack of variety.

Brazil,s Beautiful Woods.

Beautiful Brazil woods are recon-
mended to capitalists. Cabinet woods
of many kinds abound, are easy to
reach. and fairly easy to get. Because
of the lack of enterprise among the
Brazilians only small quantities have
been exported. Communication with
the woods is bad, freights and wages
are high. An American company with
s5,OO0,O0O is beginning to exploit some
of the best regions. It hopes to over
come obstacles by the application of
modern milling and transportation
methods. An elevated swinging rail-
road will carry the logs from the
woods to the mills, which are to be To-
Gated near or on good roads.

Something Like a Fake.

There are many In the city who
have their key ring insured in a big
Eastern agency which If the keys are
lost are supposed to pay the finder
one dollar. It costs something like
two dollars per year to get the pro-
lection and it was not long ago that
the agent was here and did big
business. Just whether anyone ever
received the reward or not we are
not able to say but we know of one
who found such bunch and has
waited several months on the COM
pany to remit but to mo avail what
ever. Just whether or not the prop
osition. is a graft seems to be the
question but it might be a very goof'
experiment 10 make test before any
more money is paid out.

NAN ABOUT IoWA

The other night when the wind howl
ed and the cold. singing air made
pedestrians hurry along the streets
and .huddle closer into the. big collars
OF their great coats, the Man About
Town was pl0dding along homeward
with the rest when a shivering, cring-
Ing and hungry looking dog Of uncer-
tain age and apparently plebeian an
cestry stole up to his side, looked
wistfully up into his face with such a
look Of appeal that, cold as 1t was, the
Man stopped to give the old. fellow
a friendly pat on the head. The overa-
ture was greeted with evident apre-
citation and it was easy to be seen that
the cur was old, cold and hungry,
Walt and wanderer. Just an old dog,
that was all. The Man slipped dime
into the market-man's hand for the
scraps he wrapped up for him and the
old dog followed In anticipation. A
good feed and warm nest was later
secured for him. In the morning
when the Man dropped around to the
barn where Tramp" had been left, the
old dog lay there stretched out cold
In death. Too much food or too much
cold, or both; it was all over and we
said as we walked away-just an old
dog, poor cur. Men grow old, too.
A certain married man whose name
Is withheld by the Man About Town
because of his sensitive nature has a
little boy who loves his papa dearly
las all little boys should). This little
boy attends Sunday school and has
learned many things of sacred history.
the other day he came home after at
tending Sunday school and thought
fully said to his grandma: Grandma,
God is good man, amt he?" Eyes,
my child, God is very good to
those who obey him" He's an awful,
awfully good man, amt he. grandma ."
Eyes, dearie, he is very good, to u.s.
very good"
The little chap thought moment.
and said But, Grandma, he amt no
better than my father, tho IS he,
now?"
Just what grandma replied the Man
does not know. but mothers-in-law are
not inclined always to place theil
sons-in-law upon quite the plane of
excellence the little boy, because of
inspiration for most men, thought the
Man.
AS the Man slipped down from the
stool at the lunch counter a seedy-
looking individual came in laboring
under the weight of load of corn"
juice which would put drunken
soldier to shame were he carry one
half of it to the mess tent, even.
Brushing the "cob-webs" away from
his dazed vision in a hopeless effort
to look sober, he moved up to the
clerks desk by seveNl ill-timed tacks
and in muddled way managed to get
out-"g-g-ot room-fr me, par-do
The clerk, good fellow and full Of
humor asked, "One with bath:
Yes. sir, certainly, sir" Bath,
BATH! What in 49, do want bath
fur?" and muttering to himself he
made another tack, for the door this
time, finally nearly carrying it from
Its hinges in his efforts to get out and
away from that bath" That's the
way to fix Them" said the clerk, and
the Man allowed it was great sys-
tenn.
