RELEASING INTO PAGANISM
Orthodox Priests in Russia Complain
 That Churches Are Empty

St. Petersburg Correspondence Pall Mall Gazette.
 According to official statistics pub lished by the ministry of the interior, large numbers of the peasantry in the government of Perm, Uja and Viatka have fallen into a state of organism, worshpiping the ancient gods, Flor and Lavra. There are now 10000 idolators in viatka. 4O00 in Perm and HOO in Uja
 Local officials say that the worship of Flor and Lavra had never totally
 disappeared fro these districts but
 assumed alarming proportions after the
 bad harvests of the past three years.
 The pagan priests who still fingered in remote districts carried on active prop
 aganda among the peasantry. telling them that Flor and Lavra sent bad har- vests as sign of anger.
 The consequence was that many thou | sa nds of peasants ceased to attend the churches. took to sacrificing cattle to Lavra and Flor instead and attending
 services in forest groves consecrated to
 those gods. The police are trying to
 put a stop to the movement but with out avail, as the large forests shelter the idolators. M The ministry has sent out pr. Kuznie- COW of the Moscow Archaeological in- stitute to study the movement The orthodox priests complain that many | of their churches are standing quitel empty. while in some cases the peasants force them to hang in their churches the hides of cattle which have been sacrificed to Flor and Lavra.

The History of Sir Charles Grandson is story which taxes the patience of person of the present day to read. A man, woman or child who would read through the seven volumes which contain the account of the superior Sir Charles and the equally superior Miss Byron (un- less the task was performed as mat ter of duty) would be hard to find today. The. stiltedness and the 'priggishness' or the work are annoying to even kindly critics. The morals inculcated are excel
 lent and the book never did anybody any
 harm. Maria Edgeworth, in fact, at
 tributes all the virtues of one or her
 heroes to a perusal of sir Charles Grand ison." It is impossible to condense the story of 'rSir Charles Grandson and not become more or less facetious-that IS, for a person with any sense of humor. What a change in the world in a com paratively few years, Our ancestors or
 1753 wept over the pathetic parts of sir Charles Grandson" and devoured the story with seriousness and avidity. All the literary world rayed over It. One critic considered 1t superior to the "Iliad' and plays and tragedies and poems were extracted from 1t. It must have meant something to the world of the time of it's publication But to us 1t is rather funny.

.FADS LATEST In
FEMININE Bags
As They Are Now dictated By
Dame FdS n

New York, November Bags are
as much a fad as ever, and leather bags
are small. The chatelaine mesh bags
are by no means out of the running,
and some of the new ones show an
Oriental mesh with the frames jewel
ed in Oriental fashion. The latest
craze is to carry them along with van
ity trinkets, all suspended by chains.
Those is gold are sumDtuous. The sill
yer ones are more difficult to jewel eff
fectively. Pearls are lovely on gun
meal, however, and jet is often effec-
lively used.
Bead bags continue in favor, and
some of the handsomest show cords
covered with beads and these are per
fectly flexible.
All the other bags are immense i'll
size, being echoes Of the English cor
onation, at which peeresses arrived At
seven in the morning with their sup
plies for the day.
! The brocades used are sumptuous,
many Of them being mostly or partly
Of metals, and these, as a rule, are fin
ished with a metallic guimp.
| Then there are embroidered bags.
These range from simple little bags
with modest motif to maryels in
stitchery. One is in dull gold tissue
embroidered so heavily in metals as
to suggest modelling. These bags are
magnificent. Those in Japanese en-
broidery are both dainty and colorful.
Then there are braided bags. AS a
rule, one color serves, though black
braiding is on the white silk ground of
one of fetching affair. A rich black
satin bag is practically covered with
silken braids. 1t is shaped like the
chimney part of an old-fashioned lamp
post and is finished with fringe.
AS rule, lace bags are designed for
evening wear only, though a few, most
ly in black, are suitable for visiting.
The smartest are in lace like that on
the dress with which they are to be
worn. Chantilly, Maltese, Hoiiton,
Venise, Brussels and most of the
handsomer laces are seen over chif-
fon which in turn over silk. These
lace bags are not of the largest size.
Most bags have rather long cords,
which are carried knotted or doubled
| in the hand.

use the adjective autumn to refer
to the weather, but the brand that
was served up here yesterday might
very truthfully and comfortably be la
beIeI winter" The heavy winds
throughout Thursday night showed
very clearly how near Americas was
in the path of the cold wave that swept
over a large part of the country.
Yesterday morning the reading OF
the minimum temperature at the local
weather station showed the lowest
temperature recorded here this season,
SO, or within six degrees of the freez-
ing point That was the lowest that
has been experienced here since last
winter, and it reminded one of nothing
so much as some of the rafting cold
weather that blew in a little later in
the corresponding season of last year.
The continuation of cloudy weather,
which was so characteristic of yes
terday, is predicted for today, though
no rain is indicated. 1t was this cloudy
weather and easterly and northerIy
winds yesterday that made the day
so raw and uncomfortable. The drop
in temperature during the twenty-four
hours was sufficient to constitute
what even the weather bureau would
term a cold wave.

The New Automobile Company Or
ganiZes.

The COrbitt Automobile Company,
recently chartered by the State, was
organized here last Saturday. The
officers of the new company are R.
j. Corbitt, president; S. T. Peace,
vice president; W. A. Hunt, treas
urer; A. A. Zollicoffer, secretary. The
above named officers, together with
the following gentlemen, constitute
the board of directors: R. S. Nc
Coin. f. c. Toepleman, +. E. Schro-
der, l.. r. Gooch and S. S. Stevenson.
Quite a number of Henderson's rep
resentative citizens, in addition to
those whose names are mentioned
above, are stockholders in the new
enterprise.
The authorized capital of the new
company is $25O.O0O, but for the
present it will be limited to $75, 900,
most of which has already been sub
scribed. 1t is a noteworthy fact that
this big concern is being financed by
Henderson men, which is only anoth-
er example of their faith in the fut-
ure of their town and their
ability to make things go. This is
the Henderson spirit, which has of
late been shown in more than one or
two instances. When they wanted
one of the best hotels in the State
they went to work and got it up
among themselves.
The object of the new company is
to manufacture, build, construct, sell
and deal in automobiles and auto
trucks. AS soon as a suitable lOca-
ton can be secured the erection Of
the big automobile factory will be-
gin. This will in all probability be
somewhere along the new '1ndus-
trial Track" to be put in right away
by the Seaboard Air Line Railway
Company. But in the meantime the
company has secured Mr.. r. j. Cor
bits large prize house on Spring
street as temporary quarters, and
the work of constructing automo-
biles will begin with as little delay as
possible in that building.
An expert automobile builder will
be at the head of the factory, skilled
workmen will be employed, the most
approved machinery installed, and
only high-g1ade machines will be
turned out. Large touring cars,
runabouts, trucks and the like
will be manufactured and put on the
market.
Mr.. r. J. Corbitt is the moving
spirit in this big new enterprise, and
his name, together with those OF his
associates, is sufficient to guarantee
it's success from the start. The au-
tomobile factory will be a great
thing for Henderson, in fact is one
of the very best things for the city
that has come this way in some time.
