TUESDAY EVENING. NOV. %

THE NEW buildings Of the Union The
illogical Seminary,in New York, were
described last night by President Jacot
G. Schurman, Of Cornell University
who spoke at the dedicatory exercise:
now in progress as striking expression
Of the spirit Of religious progress,
which he declared howeyer,was larger
than an institution" Among other
things he said:
Whether we like it or not, change
is taking place in the attitude OF rellgl-
Gus men. The theological student who
wants to improve the conditions Of 500
ciety must master the social sciences
and especially the sciences Of econo-
mics and government. Scientific work
ers in all fields arc the sages OF our
twentieth century. They have made 1t
impossible for the men Of this genera
ton to regard dogmas rs their fathers
regarded them. To make belief, for
example, in the history of the Jews a
condition OF the salvation OF n human
sodl is in this scientific age Of the world
not only physical impossibility, but
an intellectual abSurdity and an out
rage on free moral personality.
The Bible is gradually being ehmi-
mated from the colleges and theological
seminaries OF the world.

seems, afforded q hobby for several
persons in Virginia who are DESTROYS Of
gaining political prominence. The en-
tire management OF the democratic
party in the state is attacked because OF
the blot shown in the city by the sea.
Judging from the talk OF reiormers

Such hobbies are often overloaded by

who instead of fighting windmills pre-
tend to be making war on imaginary

Before such action is taken, however,
some decisions are expected in cases
heard in Richmond early in November.
One of these, and that which is awaited
with the most interest, is the tax case
OF the Richmond, Fredericksburg and
Potomac Railroad. Also an opinion is
doubtless looked for with a great deal
of interest by W. Dallas Wright and
the two negroes convicted with him in
Buckingham county for the murder oil
the Stuart brothers, for their lives hang
on the result.

Perlshed In a storm.

Berlin, Nov. 20. That $50 Russians
and Persians have persisted in a storm
in the Caspian Sea is the statement
made today by the Tagablatt, upon the
assertion Of an eye witness.
The Tageblatt's correspondent de-
cIares that ten vessels went down in the
hurricane and that a passing steamship
witnessed the tragedy, unable to render
effective aid, as so many vessels were
sinking at the same time. The pas
sengers on the steamship saw $50 die,
they declare, 90 were saved 10y the
steamship. The disaster is said to have
occurred near Astrachan.

TRYING to End strike.

Chicago, Nov. 29.-Determined to
end, if possible, the strike of 10000
garment workers which for six week:
has kept the police busy quelling small
riots and through which 100000 per
sons are said to be suffering for the
necessaries of life, the city today,
through a committee, is taking q hand
10 the affair.
Headed by Mayor Busse, the com
mittee will make strong effort to
bring strikers and employers into con-
ference with a view OF forcing peace.
Whether they will succeed in their OBJ
ject is admittedly doubtful. The
closed shop" issue is the sticking
point. On this both sides Of the con
troversy have so far been inhexible.
1t is estimated that the strike has al

Tn Reform Funerals.

Johnstown, Pa, Nov. 29.-The local
ministerial association has taken up
the task, of reforming funerals. The
members will decline to ofiiciate at
Sunday funerals except in such cases
as are required by the board Of health,
and they will urge upon all bereayed
families that they have carriages only
for pallbearers and those closely related
to the deceased. Lavish floral displays
will be discouraged and in general the
tendency will be to make every funeral

Fatal Accident TO Little Girl.

Stroudsburg, Pa, Nov. CLAP
ping her hands in glee at the prospect
of riding a great big horse all by heI
lone self, Lulu NJ. Nash, 5 years old
was lashed to the back Of the snima
yesterday afternoon by her mother
Mrs. Nellie Nash, Of Wilkes-Barre.
Fifteen minutes later the little one was
dead, her head bruised and mangled
from striking stones in the road.
Mrs. Nash and her daughter came
down from Wilkes Barre for a shorl
visit, This afternoon they started out
to call on a friend Howard Raisch,
about quarter of mile distant. To
please the child, Mrs. Nash tied her on
the back OF one OF the farm horses and
mounted another herself to make the
tip.
Hardly had they started, however,
when the child began to slide off the
horses back. The ropes slackened
with the motion OF the animal and the
little one was soon hanging head down,
under the horses belly. The frightened
animal could not be stopped, and ran
on down the road to the Raisch home,
the frantic mother following on the
other horse as fast as she could ride,
screaming for help.
When the horse was caught, and the
child released the child was dead. Her
head had been frightfully cut and
bruised by striking stones in the road
as she dangled under the horse and by
kicks from the animals hoofs.

WANTS TO INCREASE RATES.

Evidently with the intention OF hav-
ing the Supreme Court OF Appeals pass
upon the question Of its passenger rates,
the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Po-
tomac Railroad Company yesterday Pc
titioned the State Corporation Commits
sion to be PERMITTED to charge a
maximum interstate rate OF cents per
mile. This is the same contention in
yolyed in the petition OF the Washing

owners OF which have a controlling in

burg and Potomac. the two roads,
forming the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The case OF the Washington South

preme Court and is now pending,
awaiting argument at the January term
Yesterdays proceeding took the form
OF a supplemental petition, reviying
the old petition OF April IA, 1908, when
the road asked the Corporation Com
mission to review and rehear the or
ders reducing the passenger rates to :
cents a mile on the leading railroads oI
Virginia. At that time this road agreed
to continue the 2-cent rate in effec
until final settlement by the Supreme
Court OF the United States of the
appeal taken by four OF the Virgins
companies from the order of the com
mission. 1t was then ordered that thu

Orangemen to o

arrangement W " .
Belfast. Irela z9.-Home
rule for Irela ror becomes q
reality, will be npanied by fierce
fighting and bio, shed. according to
the unionist leaders. The orangemen
say they will resist to the last any at
tempt TO break away from England.
The orangemen are already secretly
recruiting to resist an Irish parliament
and selecting officers to drill them into
regiments. A sum estimated to be
more than $50, 900 is in hand to buy
arms the moment an Irish parliament
is decided upon.
There we're two great unionist meet
ings in Belfast yesterday. One Of
them was in secret, and at this meet
ing, the unionist papers declare, 1t
was decided to resist with arms any at
tempt OF an Irish home rule parlia-
ment to lexy taxes or impose laws.
Following this secret meeting, hun
dreds OF orangemen today secretly
enlisted in the army" that is to fight
against autonomy. Officers who have
served their time have been appointed
to drill these recruits, and when home
rule becomes inevitable, Ulster county
will become an armed camp.
The unonists are oppose to home
rule. They believe in sticking to
England and in having their laws
made for them by the English parlia
ment. The unionist leaders believe
that liberal victory in the approach
ing general elections will mean not
only the removal OF power from the
House OF Lords. but the granting oil
home rule to Ireland.
Yesterdays public meeting was at
tended by 10000 people, OF whom
20, 900 had to content themselves with
being present at an overflow meeting
outside Ulster Hall.
The Marquis oil Londonderry pre-
sided. He presented telegram from
ex-Primo Minister Arthur Baliour,
saying:
III Ulster stands firm a home rule.
radical coalition will never succeed
in forcing the disruption of the United
Kingdom upon a hostile and deter
mined people"
In his speech the Marquis declared
bitterly that home rule means the
placing OF the protestant neck under
the Roman Catholic heel, and he
predicted that Ulster county would
never submit to a home rule parlia'
ment.
Sir Edward Carson, ex-solicltor gen
eral, and now a conservative member
of parliament for Dublin, declared
that American dollars would never
buy Ireland, adding that the money
raised in America by Redmond O'Con-
nor and the other home rulers in
America was to be used to destroy the
United Kingdom.
Other speakers declared that harsheI
methods than refusing to pay taxes
would be invoked by the orangemen
if home ruls was thrust upon them.
