Thought Minister Was About to
Pray Instead of Caress.

ST. LOUIS, June 14.-Mrs. Theo-
dore J. Ferguson, of No. 1925 Walton

her version of the kiss that made st.
Louis famous and brought under in
vestigation the Rev. Charles NJ.

of the kiss;

Rauch had been exonerated by me

never said word indicating that
he was not wholly to blame for what
he did. His friends are insinuating
that encouraged him to kiss me.
That is extremely unfair as Pastor
Rauch himself knows it is false.
Il regret the report that the min
lister kissed me 40 times. He kissed
me but once. II was ia his study
and I never returned there alone.
We were alone in his study and
when we had finished our consulta-
ton he arose from his desk and APP

ing TO suggest that we offer up a
prayer in behalf of our duties, but
instead he kissed me on the brow.
