MINISTER'S RESIGNS.

On a heated address last night at Il g
Typographical Temple, Washington,
Rev. E. Hez Sven, who year or moe
20 severed connection with the Second
B .ptist Church as its pastor and has
ecently organized Capital Baptist
Church, assailed the conduct Of mem
bers Of bis former congregation. He
a 'cused them of being followers of q
Use god, and declared he had left Ii
Second Baptist Church because III
c0ngr. ga ion vas not reiir GU
enough 70 him and because "th"irr d
is their digestive apparatus" It ha,
heen charged by members OF the Second
Baptist Church that Mr.. Sven resigned
from that church because OF the indiG-
nation aroused in his congregation by
continued announcements Of sensa-
tional titles of sermons. He has mat e
a habit Of advertising that he wou d
speak upon Why Women Fllrt.
why Washington Women Go I'm
married." and other similar subjects.
Such announcements brought the
church into disrepute, according to
members Of his former congregation,
who let him understand that it would
he better for him to resign. Such sub.
jects as "Whata Washington Physician
fold Me About" made the church APP
pear foolish in the eyes Of the city, they
said. The Second Baptist Church
members also charged that Mr.. SVEN
had built up his present congregation
by writing letters t. bis former follow.
crs and soliciting them to join his con-
gregatlcn.
10 the surprise of his congregation,
which had no inkling of his impending
action, Rev. Lloyd c. Douglas, pastor
OF the Luther Place Memorial Church
and one OF the most prominent minis
ters of this city, resigned hi. pulpit yes.
terday and will soon leave Washington
to attempt q wide moral reform Of the
colleges Of the middle west.

THREE MARTYRED PRESIDENTS


Thirty years ago yesterday james
A. Garfield, president oil the United
States, waa shot and moitalIy wouEded
IN the old Sixth street depot i'll Vast :
ington. He died two months later At
EIbe,ton, n. j. The murder was
committed by y thr;it!css wonld-he
lawyer, tinker at prophecy, ar
imaginary poet. former member OF
the Oneida community, = self con
fessed immoral individual with thirsI
for fame equal to that Of ErostraiuS
when he fired the temple ol Diana at
Ephesus. Sixteen years before PreSl-
dent Abraham Lincoln had been muir
deieI in Washington theatre by 4
man whose political predictions
seemed to have dclhrGncd his reason.
twenty years after the death OF PresI.
lent Garfield from IN asSassin's bullet
William Mckinley was rulhlessly
slain by repre-: sentative Of the anar
cIistic cla.s Which infcsts all civilized
countries. A Washington paper calls
attention TO the fact that the anniyer-
sary OF the assassination Of President
dent Garfield went unno,iced, except by
the few intimately connected with the
president. Not even a
wreath was placed en- the Garfield
statue at the foot Of the Capitol grounds.

TODAY'S CELEBRATION.

One hundred and thirty-five years
ago the forefathers of what is now a
great nation announced their determl-
nation to cut loose from Brittania' s
, apron strings and start housekeeping
Non their own account. Fearless rep
kesentatiyes of the republic which bad
list come TO the birth met fhlladel-
10 and proclaimed their indepcn-
Zee OF the American colonies.
It was q bold act, and all concerned
realized the fact that halter was sus-
pended ever the heal Of each. The
movement might prove failure, 10
which event death for treason was IN
eyitaole. But, according to the saying
when treason is successful none dare
call it treason, and they took the des-
perate chance after committing their
cause to the god Of battle. The ami
versary of this greatest Of all events in
American history will be celebrated to-
morrow. There was time when the
Fourth OF July appealed to tho people
of the United States in greater meas
ure than at present. Public meetings
and barbecues we're held in every city,
town, hamlet and cross roads in the
country, and the spirit of patriotism
animated all. 1t is not SO now, from
the fact that a large percentage OF the
present polyglot population of the
country is not interested in our coun-
try's history. The present generation,
too. are unfortunately not actuated by
the principles of their forefathers, and
sports and picnics absorb more atten-
ton than the reading Of the Declare
ton Of Independence or patriotic ad-
dresses. These are sad facts and show
but slight appreciation Of the men who
placed their all upon the altar of their
country and fought hungry and partly
clothed under summer suns and
through winter SHOWS for seven years
to secure the blessings We now enjoy.
Pictures OF Washington crossing the
Delaware in mid-winter to escape
crushing blow from the Infatuated red
coats are gazed upon with the same
indifference rs illustrations of Napo-
lenn's retreat from Moscow or his
departure from the field of Waterloo.
Alexander the Great was fired with
patriotism from the time he was first
taught the history OF the Persian in
yasion OF his country, and so much
was he enthused with the incidents in
connection with the siege of Troy that
he slept with copy of Homer under
his pillow. But the fires OF patriotism
are burning low among us who have
On much for which to be thankful.

TEN KILLED IN AUTOMOBILE
ACCIDENT
Automobile Going at 20 Miles an
i Hour Leaves Track

Syracuse, N. Y, Sept. 16.--In full
view of $4,000 persons, shortly after
President Taft had left the state fair
grounds, a big racing automobile
going at 70 miles an hour, plunged
through the race track fence, crash
ing into the crowd, killing 10 men,
decapitating boy whose father was
among the killed, fatally injuring
four men and seriously injuring IL
more.
Lee Oldfield, brother of Barney
Oldfield, took the place of Fred
Belcher, who was down on the pro-
gram to drive the ill-fated car, and he
was driving at the terrific speed,
when, on the next to the last mile,
the judges noti"ed that something
was wrong with one of the wheels.
As oIdfi Id approached the start
ing line for the last mile, the judges
signalled for him to stop, but he was
so engrossed in driving that he did
not see the signal. AS he swerved
into the back stretch, the tire of the
damaged wheel exploded and the
speed monster went hurtling into the
crowd which was gathered close to
the fence. Several persons were even
sitting on the rail.
There was a 'emendous crash and
a great cloud of dust arose as 20
foot section of the fence was swept
away. The victims were mangled
and ground to death beneath the big
motor.

SAD SEQUEL OF ELOPEMENT

Wilmington, DEL. Sept. ia Sc
quel to hurry-up romance and
elopement, involving two multi-mil-
lionaire families, will be told during
the September term of the Newcastle
county superior court, which begins
Monday. Bancroft brings suit for
divorce against his wife, Madeline du
Pont Bancroft, on statutory grounds.
The husband, who is twenty-six
years CT agesis the only son of John
Bancroft, a millionaire textile manu-
facturer. The wife, who is tweny-
three, is the oldest daughter of AL
fred l. du Pont, vice president Of the
powder trust" In the suit, Ban
croft names as co-defendant with his
wife, Max Heibler, Jr., an infant, the
paternity of which Bancroft denies
The case hinges on whether the baby
is or is not the son of Bancroft.
The divorce suit is sequel to the
elopement in December, 1907, Of the
now cstranged couple. They were
married in Washington. The BRIDE
groom was then a student at Prince
ton. He and his bride went to Ger
many and young Bancroft completed
his studies at Heidleburg university.
The young bride is estranged from
her mother, Bessie Gardner du Pont,
from whom her father secured d.
vorce.
The allegations in the suit are that
while Mrs. Bancroft was in Europe
she had improper relations with one
Max Heibler, the result Of which, 1t is
alleged, was the birth of the child
named in the suit as Max Heibler, Jr.
The couple have another child, boy,
named afer the father, and born
abroad.
