REV. T|NSL[Y ON
TRIAL FOR HERESY
MINISTER IS ACCUSED BEFORE
N. e. CONFERENCE.
IN SESSION AT CLEVELAND.
He ls Charged with Preaching Con-
trsry to the Established Standards
and Of an "un.chrlotian
Like Attitude"

Cleveland, Sept 1.-TWO trials OF
ministers. one for heresy and the
other for defamation of character and
chewing tobacco, were Instituted at
the session OF the East Ohio confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal
church at the First Nj. II. church here
Thursday.
Rev. Charles w. Tinsley, Of Youngs-
town was accused of preaching con-
trary to the established standards
and of being "unministerial and un-
Christian-like" in his attitude toward
man. His trial began at 1880 o'clock
I'm the First NJ II. church
Rev w b. King. of Uhrichsville,
was formally arraigned before the in
vestigating committee of the confer
ence for the tobacco habit and alleged
slander of Presiding Elder Henthorne,
who in turn has preferred charges to
be heard later.
The trial of DR.. King lasted all day.
Those who took part were sworn to
secrecy. The principal witness was
Miss Meyers, whom DIR. King says he
discharged from his choir some time
ago. and who did not like the minis.
ter's talks against dancing, and moved
to Cleveland She told the committee
of how her former pastor spat to-
bacco Juice out the car window all the
way from Cleveland to Uhrichsville
one time.
Although the charges had been ex-
pected against Rev. Tinsley, still IL
was thought they would not be made
until after the King-Henthorne trou.
BILE was settled. Rev Tinsley was not
present az the session any of the time
and did not have any counsel present
to challenge the committee of nine Sc
lected by the elders TO make the in
quiry into his alleged heretical dis
courses. Rev. A. Simmons was made
chairman of the probers.
Just in what respect Rev. Tinsley
preached heresy the charges did not
say. They were brief and general and
were referred TO committee of pre-
siding elders to appoint committee
OF inquiry.
The charges were signed by six
members of the conference. The com
munication was read BY Rev. o. w.
Holmes. presidinE elder of the
Youngstown district The preferring
OF the charges came out of a clear

the established standards of doctrine,

isterial and un-Christian, we respect

POOR ST. HELENA
BRITISH GOVERNMENT PROPOSES
TO WITHDRAW GARRISON.
History Of Island over Which There
Is a Lively Controversy at the
Present Time.

The proposition Of the British gov
ernment to Withdraw the military gar
rison from the Island Of st. Helena,
made famous as the mid-ocean prison
Of Napoleon, has aroused a storm Of
protest in that country and turned the
eyes of the world in the direction Of
the little rock-ribbed speck in the
Mediterranean.
The Island of St Helena was first
discovered 404 years ago by the Por-
tuguese. For a short period it was
occupied by the Dutch and during the
last 233 years it has been a British
possession, partly under the East In
dia company and. more recently under
the crown. It's exterior is precipitous,
barren, and somewhat forbiddiDg in
appearances. but inland there are
some, $4,000 acres of tableland with
good vegetable soil, clothed with pas
ture and vegetation of the richest
kind The oak and the bamboo, with
fruits and flowers of many kinds, also
cotton, coffee, castor oil, bananas,
olives, sugar cane, tobacco, aloes and
New Zealand fax, all flourish there.
The island scenery is charming and
picturesque. The climate is temper
ate and one of the most healthy to be
found in any part of the world. 1T
has an abundant supply of pure fresh
water, and many kinds of fish, suit
able for food, are found around its
coasts. In time of war it could be
entirely self-supporting.
St. Helena has rendered valuable
service to the British empire in the
past Long before the Suez canal, it
served as a place of call for home
ward bound vessels from the East In
the year 1876, the celebrated astrono-
mer, Halely, paid it visit for import
ant observations. Later on it was
used as a residence for Napoleon, and
after that as a naval station and de-
pot when Great Britain was engaged
in the suppression of the slave trade.
Still later it was used for the safe
keeping of Dinizulu and other Zu-
lu chiefs, and even still more recently
for some 5000 Boer prisoners of war.
It is now one of the most important
stations for the all-British telegraph !
Hopkinsville Kentuckian., 1907-01-19

cable between Great Britain and her
Eastern possessions and with its safe
roadstead and important strategical
position for a naval base, would doubt
less be of further use to the empire as
a coaling station, both for naval and
mercantile purposes. Considering how
simple it would be in time of war
effectually to block the Suez canal,
st, Helena may again be needed AS
a sanatorium for sick soldiers and
sailors serving in West Africa it would
have no equal
That it is not sentiment alone which
has caused the protest against the
proposed abandonment of the island
is evident, for the protestants declare
that to any one who understands the
strategic value of the island to- the
empire, it seems incredible that the
present government, for the sake of
economy, would dismantle the forts
and withdraw the troops. Such a
step, they say, would be unwise, for it
practically means the abandonment of
a most important naval and military
position.
With ST. Helena in the hands Of
hostile power, it is declared the ada.
cent admiralty depot at Ascension
island would be utterly useless. And
then in addition it is pointed out tina.
the removal of the little garrison
would mean the serious depreciation
of private property, as we'll as ruin
to most of the colonists, whe recently
were led to believe that they would
have the government support, and
were thus led to invest their money
there.
1t is suggested that St. Helena ought
to be formed into permanent naval
coaling station, and in the meantime
it seems imperative to keep a sma.
garrison there TO keep the for.iflca
tions, guns, barracks. roads, water
works and other valuable property In
repair, and to prevent the place from
falling into other hands At the same
time they say the imperial government
might reasonably be expected to make
an annual grant to encourage native
industries, which for want OF capital
are unable to make headway.

The IIses Of Nemsnaners.

The newspaper is very good under
pinning for carpets Mop the floor
clean, lay papers fiat and roll carpet
over them to place This is much bet
ter than the old way of placing straw
beneath the carpet. 1t is more intel
lectual and obviates the undesirable
presence of an occasional Corncob,
horseshoe or the false teeth of a COW
which now and then get into the straw
pile and under the carpet.
Mr.. Weary Wandering Ragletts,
cousin to Dusty Rhodes has also dis
covered a use for newspapers They
are his mattress and his coverlet in
the palace box car where he sleepeth.
Verify, he is kept from pneumonia

For wrapping furniture and picnic
dinners newspapers are very handy,
and sell for so much per pound. BY
the way what is it the young woman
wraps in newspaper when she goes
to stay all night with a friend on the
North side?
Newspapers are used to do up 9th.
er things-politically as well as in a
domestic sense.
When Mr. Wise BOY sweeps his Of
fee, which he does faithfully every
three months, he tears newspapers
into bits, then sprinkles them as they
lie scattered over the floor. When he
sweeps, the bits keep the dust down
and grapple the dirt.
On a cold, cold night when the jan.
itor has neglected to spend as much
money for coal as the lease calls for,
carefully spread newspapers between
the quilts. There will be more crackle
and snap in the bed covering than
usual, but you will sleep as cozy as
the proverbial bug in a rug.
Newspapers are often used over the
backs Of pictures, thereby keeping
dust from the cherished products.

Professor" Charles w. Oldreive,

the surface of the water from Gin
cinnati to New Orleanes on a wager
of $4,000, is nothing but. a clever
faker. 1t was ascertained yesterday
that the professor" rides in the
launch which is accompanying him,
until he gets in sight of town. He
then leaves the launch and floats
past the town on his cedar shoes.
Capt" Oldreive was seen to leave
his launch just as he rounded the
bend in the river above Owensboro.
He foated and walked to the wharf
boat. After leaving Owensboro the
swiftly moving current carried him
around the bend below Owdnsboro
in very short time. Those who fol-
owed the Captain" distance say
that after leaving Enterprise he en-
tered the launch and proceeded on

GUESS AGAIN.

Christmas is always a lonesome
day for those who try to make no one
happy but themselves. Did you ever
notice that? There seems to be a
mOcker in the air. He steals into the
homes of the rich and derides them
because they have so little to be
thankful for when they might have
no much. He raps the selfish man
llnd makes him feel like a peanut.
11is especial delight is a wealthy old
geezer who has spent his life making
money, who has bribed a pretty girl
10 marry him and who wonders why
he is not happy now that he is ready
TO enjoy life. The rmocker steals in
taf the window early in the morning
and whines dolefully about the luxu-
rious rooms, sowing discord and dis
-cOntent. He gets into the CHEEKY
lRrate and makes the fire smoke, he
enters the boudoir of the girl who has
sold herself for money and puts
strange unrest in her heart, he
marches boldly into the dining-room
and makes the air cold and the atmos-
lphere dismal.
And then, after he has had his re-
venge, he goes trooping off to the
home of some husky laboTer and cuts
up merry Ned with the children. He
dances and whoops and plays leap
frog and hide-and-seek until he is
lbreathless from exertion and laugh
ing.
Yes, it is a mighty lonesome day
for some people, Christmas. 1t
makes a fellow remember those alb
sent ones who once sat with him about
his board and it makes him want to
forget that he is a strong man, hard
and steeled to the American life. He
would like, without seeming weak, to
go of by himself and and have a good
oldfashioned cry like his wife does
when the soup turns out badly or
somebody said that somebody said.
A good way to avoid all this it to ar
range for doing good on Christmas
day. Forget yourself! Think Of other
people. Then you will be happy. My
word for it!

LABOR IN DEMAND

Labor is m sharp demand in South ern Alaska towns and camps. The mining camps of Prince William sound, particularly Latouche island, find it impossible to obtain men enough. One reason of this is that every man who has a grubstake or can get one is out prospecting or developing for himself.
 The stringency in the labor market has grown acute since the disappear ance of snow. Laboring men and me- chanics have been quietly dropping out of Seward for two months past, for the railroad, for the sound islands, for the interior,-until now it is ditli- cult to pick up an extra man for any kind of a job
