The world has viewed one Judgment
day scene, it being that memorable oc-
casion in biblical history when Lot made
his hurried exit from the city of Sodom
and the Creator "rained down fire and
birthstone" according TO Evangelist F. F.
Cook of Detroit. in his sermon on "A
Judgment Day Scene before the Wash
ington Temple Congregation non-sec-
tariam in New Masonic Temple Yesterday
afternoon at = O'Clock
This scene of the righteous man of
Sodom' fleeing before the devouring fire
of the Creators wrath was depicted by
Mr.. Cook. who declared that so many of
this world turn, like Lots wife. for be-
1onsings which will not aid them in the
world to come, and as a result lose their
immortal life.
The evangelist recalled that biblical
tradition declares that the city of this
first judgment day scene now lies at the
bottom of the Dead sea, Gin which the
finDy tribes do not exist and over which
the fowl of the air cannot fly and live

ON TRIAL FOR CONSPIRACY.
Three Alleged to Have Formed
Agreement to False Charges.

James j. Fletcher, a professional bonds
man. George Noble, colored, and May
King, alias May Adair. were placed on
trial today before Justice Stafford in
Criminal Court No. / to answer an in
dctment for conspiracy. The indictment
charges that in November. 1911, the three
defendants entered into an agreement to
compromise the wife of Fletcher, who
was suing him for divorce, and to make
a false charge of infidelity against her.
The defense today moved to quash the
Indictment on the plea that the wife of
Fletcher was an incompetent witness be-
fore the grand jury and charge based
on her testimony could not be sustained
against the husband, and especially
against his co-defendants.
Justice Stafford overruled the motion TO
quash and a jury was impaneled. The
trial is expected to occupy several days.
United States Attorney Wilson and As
sistant United States Attorney Hawken
are conducting the prosecution. The de-
PENDANTS are represented by Attorneys

ADDRESS BY MR.. BROOKSHIRE.
Descartes and Spinoza Subjects Of
Talk Before Secular League.

Former Representative E. V. Brookshire
delivered an address on Descartes and
SpinoZa yesterday before the Washing.
ton Secular League at its meeting at
Pythian Temple. following which the
members of the organization discussed it.
Preceding the address. original verses on
Descartes and Spinoza were read by III.
c. Kirk. president of the league, and Mrs.
Orion. another member. read verses on
marriage and divorce. which contended
that unwise and improper marriages are
at the root of the divorce evil.
Mr.. Brookshire said that Descartes and
SpinoZa did an immense service in behalf
of the freedom of the human mind. These
philosophers, he declared. rejected all au-
thority except that of reason, and were
the real forerunners of the modern scien-
tific or the essentially truth-seeking meth
cd of thought.
