Church of Christ, Scientist, takes any

Of Mrs. Augusta Stetson time will be
given her to hand in her resignation.
Until this is done no meeting of the
board will be called.
Friends of Mrs. Stetson predict re-
organization in the Board of Trustees

followers charged that Mrs. Stetson
had been tricked into the power Of
her enemies at Boston by promises of
her vindication and that it was In this
belief that she admitted that she had
taught error.
1t was said further that when she
left Boston Wednesday Mrs. Stetson
believed that her judges would pardon
her errors" and reinstate her with
added powers
One of the most interesting phases
of Mrs. StetsOn's case is her $4,000
salary as pastor emeritus.
She has been drawing that in
monthly installments voted by the

BISHOP REESE OPPOSES
QUICK DIVORCES
Head of Episcopal Church in Georgia
On Astor Case.

The celebrity with which the divorce
was granted in the Astor divorce suit
Mrs. John Jacob Astor having been
granted one in three minutes by the
New York court-has caused a storm
of protest over the country for the fav-
ors extended at times in some judicial
tribunes to the very rich. In the New
York American of Wednesday the
opinion of the Rt Rev. Frederick F.
Reese, Bishop Of Georgia, was printed
and the views of Bishop Reese mani
fest that he vigorously opposes the
leniency with which the matter was
apparently treated. The letter from
Bishop Reese follows:
Savannah, Ga.-Editor New York
American: l concur with DR.. John P.
Peters on the recent three-minute di-
vorce of a multi-millionaire couple.
Secret and hasty divorce, with con-
cealment of the reasons for divorce, if

should be made to all discrimination.
but without extravagant and pessim-
istic suggestions that all the rich are
alike. which are calculated to in
fame passion and hatred among the
people.
We should hit the evil doer as an

hatred. indiscriminate and often I'M
reasoning, is as dangerous as the evils
against which it is directed The peo-
pie should keep their heads steady and
their hearts free from hatred, and the
press should help them in that Then
we shall settle our social troubles,
and do justice to all people and classes

Control.

Topeka-Governor Stubs has
vetoed two bills. One was the bill
providing for the raising Of funds for
the erection or improvement of court
4houses and jails and the other bill
vetoed was the amendments to the
Kansas corporation laws.
The governor says that he believes
the court house bill to be wrong in
,,that it permits the raising of fund
by taxation to make the improvements
and after the fund is raised the people
get chance to vote on the PROPOSE
ton of whether or not the improve
ment should be made. The governor
says that the voting ought to be done
first and then the tax levy could be
made.
n the other measure the governor
says that he believes the charter bill
superseded the bill passed a month
ago which provided that when a cor
poration abused its corporation rights
and privileges a receiver should be
appointed. He thinks that this law
Is more important that the amend
mants TO the corporation act and does
not approve 1t for that reason.
