The heresy case which has agitated The Epis-
copal Church for some time seems to be ap-
proaching its crisis. DR.. A. S. Crapsey, rector
Of st. Andrews Church, Rochester, New York,
has been found guilty on all the counts of the
Indictment by a vote of four TO one in an &C.
clesiastical court sitting at Batavia, n Y
The accusation against Dr.. Crapsey, which he
did not deny, was that in sermon preached
some months ago he denied the virgin birth
of Christ DR.. Crapsey appears to be convert
to the materialistic school of modern thought,
denying the supernatural element in the rei-
gion of Christ. The wonder is that he cared to
stay in the church whose fundamental teachings
he had discarded.

A review Of Williamsburgs un-

been such advancement along all
lines. This happy condition Of af-

One of the first and most noted
improvement may be mentioned the
sidewalks along Duke Of Gloucester
street. Williamsburg now has the
sidewalks of its main thoroughfare
covered with a seven foot grano-
lithic pavement. The work was
done by a local firm, Sweeney &
Son, and is said to be one of the
best of its kind in the State. L
