Died From Epilepsy.

London, March 17.-After a post
mortem examination on the body of
Miss Frances Leslie, the actress found
dead on board the Steamship Oceanic,
it was given out by DR.. r. S. Franch,
the ships surgeon, that Miss Leslie
died from suffocation as the result of
seizure in the nature of an epilpetic
attack. One of the attacks, to which
it is said Miss Leslie was subject, ap-
parently came upon her while she was
alone. When the body was found by
the ships officers about noon Saturday
her head was jammed against the door
of the bathroom where she had died.
The examination was made in the
mortuary at southampton.

BERNARD SHAW'S VIEW
Playwright Declares Atheist Must Be
Religious.

London, March 17.-George Bernard
Shaw, the playwright, speaking at a
meeting which was held to demand the
abolition of the laws against bias
phemy, said among other things:
1--WE belong to an empire in which
Christianity is simply nowhere The
blasphemy laws, SO far from being
directed against persons who vilify
Christianity, are directed against per-
sons who affirm the truth of Christiani-
ty. Not only should our blasphemy
laws be abolished but all laws which
profess to protect any religion from
criticism. irony and ridicule."
Mr.. Shaw referred to atheists as
genuinely religious persons because
under this system of religious perse-
cution in Great Britain nobody but a
thoroughly religious person could call
himself an atheist. This, he admitted,
might seem a paradox to superficial
perSOnS.

CREATING INTEREST
IN SUNDAY SCHOOL
Inter Class Contest at Christian
Church Sunday School Arouses
Much Interest.

Realizing that the enthusiasm Of
the American public is conferred up
on the results of the big league base
ball contests during the summer
months, plan has been adopted by
the Christian church Sunday school
whereby this enthusiasm need not be-
come deadened during the winter, but
the interest may be kept alive by
being not only spectator, but a par
ticipant In the inter-class contest dur
ing the months OF December, January,
February and March. The Inter-Class
League is modelled along the sans
plan as the base ball league; the
standing of the teams being ascertain
ed by computing the percentage OF
the games won and lost. However,
the contests are not ones based on
skillful manipulation of the bat and
ball, but are based on the relative in
crease or decrease or the attendance
of the classes which are engaged in
the contest The average attendance
of each class for the past five months
is taken as the basis upon which 100
percent is granted the class; then as
the attendance increases or decreases,
SO the percentage increases or de.
creases. Two classes are matched In
each contest and three contests are
played each Sunday. The class hav.
ing the highest percentage based on
! its own past record is the victor over
\ its rival. In contest of this kind
/ there is no advantage given a larger
/ class, but each class record is based
on It's own increase or decrease In at
tendance. Thus suppose A, a class
of 20 is pitted against B, class OF
30 and the increase in attendance In
both classes is 5, then the smalle,
class would win, AS percentage being
125 and BIS 116, although the increase
4 was the same In each class Mex
Sundays contests are: Bereans VS.
4 Pauline; Bethany vs. Mems; Puritan
n Maidens VS.. Mrs loves class. The
public IS cordially invited to attend.
