WORKING ON NEW CAMPANILE
Engineers Report on the Present
Plans Causes Much Com
ment in venice.

VENICE, July 2S-(special Cablegram to
The ee)-serious doubts have been raised
concerning the methods followed In re-
building the famous Campanile, especially
with regard to the five large steps at the
base, now all above ground, while before
two and a half had gradually become en-
tirely covered. The College of Venetian
Engineers, presided over by Signor Ro-
manin Jacur, ex-minister, appointed a COM
mittee to study the question and report
on it, In the report which has now been
presented the committee says II has espe-
cially inquired III the work proceeds, and
promises to proceed. according to the Senti-
ment and wishes of Venice" which can be
summarized follows: That the Cam
panile. must stand where II was, and as It
was in order that the historic tower may
harmonize as it did before with that sub
lime artistic center which is the Piazza OF
San Marco. Therefore, no line nor any
detail outside or inside the Campanile
should be changed, as it would be regarded
as PROCLAMATION to give It modern APP
pearance. The report, however, fears that
this will not be carried out in the recon-
struction as Is proved by the FIVE steps
above mentioned, which have also the fault
Of being differently cut from the originals,
The new ones are polished, placed with
geometriCal regularity, and all perfectly
even in height and width, while the ancient
ones were purposely irregular and rough.
producing an artistic effect. The conclu-
sion of the report is rather severe, ex-
pressing the apprehension that the new
Campsnile will not respond either to SEN
timent, to history or to art"
In view Of these criticisms the munich
pality has appointed a committee COM
posed OF Signor Basile. an architect; Prof
Jorini and Signor laurent, a painter, and

LATEST OF STRANGE SECTS
Western New York Acknowledge
ParentaRe of Holy Rollers and
Knee Blenders.

The latest curious sects to take root
in Western New York are the Holy
Rollers and the Knee Blenders. The Holy
Rollers were organized about six years ago
on the shores of Canandaigua lake. and the
story OF the rise Of this strange religious
sect is absurdly out OF place In the TWEEN
tieth century. He'll is the chief tenet Of
the Holy Rollers belief-a he'll of sputter-
ing birthstone and flames that eternally
torture, but never consume the bodies OF
the damned. To this hell is destined every
one who does not accept the faith. The
creed embodies doctrines which were re-
garded as essential to happiness 100 years
ago. 1t is a creed that converts by fear,
and the writer has seen a number Of
young women in various stages OF hysterla
at the conclusion of a Holy Roller revival
meeting. The leaders Of the faith are Mrs.
Mary Mcintyre, Miss Emma Chase, Prof.

The Holy Rollers have operated extern
sively in Central and Western New York,
and certain small communities are In a
condition OF religious excitement not un-
like that which marked the beginning Of
Mormonism. Perhaps the strongest feature
of this frenzy is the establishment OF the
strangest of all sects, the adherents of
which call themselves Knee Benders. The
Knee Benders are a small community and
live along the eastern shore OF Seneca
lake The sect originated about hve years
ago At that time a Swedish farmer
named Burson, a man OF some education,
began to act in a strange manner. He
