John Van Weelden came over from
Holland this spring to make his home
in this country and has settled on a
farm three miles from Oskaloosa on
the Pslla road. He says that 1t ID
much easier to make living in this
country. as there are not as many
people here as in his country. His
logs have been here for some time
and that is what brought him here.
Mr.. Van Weelden mas started in right

As a result of interesting disclos-
ures in the old workings of the Rye
Patch mines. about 30 miles from
Seven Troughs, in old Humboldt
county. Salt Lake City interests have
formed the Rye Patch Consolidated
Mining company to take over prop
critics which in the early days of min

borhood of $4,000, 600, mainly in
silver values.
The holdings taken over include
the Silver Bell and Alpha mines

Sanguine predictions are based

TALKS On Steps
Danbnry Pastor Refuses to Heed
Decree of Bishop

Ispeeial to the Evening star.

DANBURY, Conn, Feb. S.-The Rev.
Matthew p. Bowie, who still maintains
that he is pastor of st. Thomas's Epis-
copal Church at Bethel, a suburb Of
this city, although Bishop Brewster, of
Connecticut, ordered that his pastoral
relations be dissolved on February l.,
gathered together a little congregation
of fifteen yesterday and conducted his
usual services on the front steps of the
church building. This had been locked
against him.
Mr.. Bowie tool charge of this pas
torate some three years ago, having a
congregation of between 300 and 400.
About a year g part of the congre-
cation began to complain that he was
arbitrary and dictatorial, ordering them
to dc all sorts of things which they did
not want to do, and which he had no
right to ask them to do. The congre-
cation split into factions, some uphold
ing the pastor and the rest opposing
him strongly.
The hostility finally took the shape cf
formal charges against Mr.. Bowie. He
was tried three weeks ago by Bishop
Brewster, who ordered that his pas
toral relations with the church be dis
solved.

ATLANTIC LIBERAL
SUNDAY FIGHT IS
TAKEN TO TRENTON
Hotel Men and SalOon=K Keepers
Urge Legislators to
Afford Relief.
Especial to the Evening star.

ATLANTIC CITY, Feb. S.-Hotel
men of this resort, after a conference
yesterday, make no secret today of the
passage of a liberal Sunday law, either
along the lines of the Keffer bill, which
proposes to submit the question Of
opening licensed resorts after l p. IN. on
the Sabbath. to public vote, or to au-
thorize the service of liquid refresh
ments with meals on Sunday in regu-
larly licensed hotels, will be rushed to
a finish.
Both the Royal Arch League of
License Holders, comprised largely of
saloon-keepers, who favor the Keffer
act because it draws no distinction,
and the City Hotel Association, COM
posed almost entirely of the ~proprie-
tors of the big houses on the beach,
many of which have cafes, sent com.
mittees to Trenton today to urge that
something be don to relieve the situa-
ton that has existed in the resort since
last summer, when Governor Fort
threatened to send troops here to en-
force Sunday closing.
Many hotel men are doubtful of the
passage of the Keffer bill. They agree
with Assemblyman Keffer, who is very
confident OH his point, that the bill
may pass the House, but they fear that
the Senate would refuse to nut through
the measure if a general fight against it
should be instituted by the church
leagues and anti-saloon societies of the
State. And even IL the measure should
pass the Senate, conservative hotel
owners are far from confident that Gov
ernor Fort would give the measure hs
approval.
Evidently no such fears beset Assem-
blyman Keffer today.
Big hotel men would make the fight
along the line of the measure that'was
suggested to members of Governor
Forts excise commission in this city
last summer and approved by the
Mayor of Asbury Park. The proposal
Was that legitimate license-holders be
permitted to serve liquors with meals
to legitimate patrons.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. S-A light

and DETECTED down the wires to the OPP
Grating room of the wireless station,
badly burned William J. Smith, the
operator. who was seated before his in
struments.
The peculiar accident occurred cary
yesterday during the short electrical
storm which swept over the ely.
Smith was rendered senseless for ten
minutes, and on recovering found that
fantastic designs had been burned on
his flesh by the current.
Smith was communicating with the
steamer Lurline. which left port las
Friday towing the bark Mohican t.
Honolulu. The storm broke with sud
den intensity, three binding flashes Of
lightning following one another quickly.
a tremendous peal Of thunder accom-
panying the lightning.
Suddenly a blaze of light broke from
the instruments in front of Smith and
he was hurled from his chair half way
across the room by the shock of the
high tension current which had been
caught by the message waves. Only
his position and the fact that the cur
rent vas spread both ways along the
message waves, it is claimed, saved
him from instant death.
