Especial from United Press.

Especial from United Press.)
 Baltimore, Sept. 1S.-Declaring that in divine revelation she was desig- mated as the successor of Mrs. Baker G. Eddy, in the leadership of the Christian Science faith, Mrs. Frs kline, according to members of the movement in Baltimore, has laid claim to the leadership.
 Mrs. Erskine, who is a prominent Baltimore woman, has been attending meetings of the Christian Science faith for some time.
 Several days ago, Mrs. Erskine went to W. c. Williams, chairman of the state committee on publication, and told him of her vision. She said that in the revelation she had been told that Mrs. Eddy was dead and that she was to be her successor. She also told Williams that young man whom she knew and who is not a Christian Scientist, was designated as sort of deputy leader.

Baggage Room Thief
 Goes to Prison

John Kuchera of Danbury was rath- CT foolish when he tried to pawn some jewelry taken from a stolen trunk, for the detectives got wind of him and he was, landed behind the bars. His was one of the most novel schemes ever attempted, keeping the railroad detec- tives up in the air for a considera ble time. Kuchera entered the baggage room in the Danbury depot slipped the baggage check off his own trunk and fastened the same on another that be- tokened a wealthy owner. The trick worked to perfection, for Kuchera later went to the railroad station pre- sented his corresponding check and got the stolen trunk. It is probable that if he had not pawned some Of the articles that were in the trunk, Kuchera would still be at liberty. The stolen trunk belonged to Mrs. Eliza beth Benedict Booth of Danbury, who found her jewelry in the pawn shops. The railroad company settled with Mrs. Booth. Kuchera's case came up yesterday afternoon in the Superior Court. criminal side. Judge Gager sen tencing him to not more than two or less than one year in prison.
