London. Jan. 3.-The Theistic church
a heterodox organization which for
MANY years occupied an odd little
building, once a Huguenot chapel, In
swallow street just or Picadilly, has
disappeared from the Sunday list OF
religious services. It's founding BY
the late Charles yoysey was a SEN
sational event in the religious world
during the seventies. When the Rev.
voygey was expelled from the Augli-
can church after being tried and found
guilty of heresy, he carried q number
of followers with him. His doctrine
was of the Unitarian order, and his
service was aided by high class music.
At his death three years ago, the pas
torate was given to DR.. Walter Walsa,
once the central figure in hereay
trial and well known as nodernist
and a democratic worker in civic af-
fairs In Dundee. DR.. Walsh occupied
the pulpit for two years.

Ed Maddox and EmInet Thomas are
to be executed in the Escambia county
Jail building on Friday, January 2s
between the hours OF 10 a. IN. and
p. m, according to the commands
from the governor contained in the
death warrants for the unfortunates,
these documents having been issued
Saturday in Tallahassee and hav-
ing reached the Office of Sheriff Ellis
Sunday morning.
The fact that the death warrants
were received at the sheriff's office
was not made known to the condemn
ed men yesterday, but at o'clock this
morning, the death warrants will be
read to the cuIprits by either the sher-
if himself or Deputy Hoffman.
Thomas and Maddox confined in
adjoining cells in what has been term
ed "rnurderer's row." IN the county
Jail have not ceased their devotions
for the past several days, and it was
stated that they were heard praying
and pleading for mercy and forgive
ness as late as IL o'clock Saturday
night. One inmate Of the jail said
yesterday that he was awake at IL
O'Clock and the negroes were still loud
1y voicing their petitions for mercy.
Both of them have written personal
letters to the governor pleading for
mercy. and the letters were forwarded
from the county jail.
The death warrant after being read
to the men this morning win result Al
their transfer to even more secure
cells. In fact, the cells they viii oc-
cupy after today and until the day or
their execution, 25 days hence. viii be
solitary, and a death watch will prob
ably be placed upon them after to-
day.
Both OF the negroes in the past have
tried to bear up strongly and they
cling to the hope that their sentences
would at least be commuted to life inn
prisonment, even If they were not fav-
ored with new trials. To all who talk
with them, the negroes have never yet
confessed their crimes.
They say they killed their respec-
tive victims, but plead some justiftca-
ton for it. One says that his gun
went off accidentally, saying that tho
cartridge from a rifle snot In his d.
rection went down the barrel of his
own weapon and caused it to become
discharged, the load taking effect IN
mis- victim, with fatal results. The
other claims self defense saying that
he killed a woman to protect himself.
Botf, have about exhausted every
means to secure new trials or get
communication Of their sentences, and
at least one lawyer has made trip
10 Tallahassee to plead personally with
the governor in behalf of his client.
The law gives the sheriff the right
to saw who shall witness the execution.
The sheriff himself is required to DO
on hand unless sickness or unavoid-
able cause prevents. and two deputies.

citizens. the clerk of the circuit court.

TROOPS ON SKIS ....
DOING GOOD WORK
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Geneva, Jan. 3.-Tne French Alpine
troops on skis have been given spec
ial mention for their work as scouts
in the deep snow of the Vosges re-
gion. Many Chamonix guides in these
regiments cover from thirty to forty
miles day without fatigue Some OF
the men engaged in actual military op
erations eight thousand feet above the
sea level, in the forests of the Col du
Bonhomme.
The ski troops are provided with
yellow glasses, as prolonged exposure
to the glare of the sun against the
snow impairs the vision. At night the
troops use their skis as supports for
their tiny service tents.
skis have been used for military
purposes In northern Europe for CEN
turtles, and in 1880 Norway began en-
forcing requirement that practically
every soldier must be equipped with
them and abba to use them sxillfully.
In the Swiss army most of the men
are excellent skiers. In maneuvers.
they have frequently covered 81 miles
OF rough Alpine territory in day in
full marching order On one occasion,
a division of this army made is miles
in one and a half hours. including an
ascent of nearly 5000 feet. In Fin
land some years ago large body of
the Russian ski soldiers. in full march
ing order. made 5I6 miles in 20 days.
Several similar achievements are re-
corded to the credit Of the Russian
force in the Caucasus.
Germany and Austria also have ski
troops although nothing has been
heard OF them thus far in the present
war.

Referring to the fact that .many thou

AS result OF six open air meetings
at Cardiff addressed by wounded SOL
diers there was an extraordinary rush
at the recruiting offices last evening.
Extremely rainy weather has pre-
vented operations on a large scale on
the western battle front and seriously
inter.erred with action In the east. The
downpour has caused floods In the
river valleys of the continent. The
weather Is the worst Europe has
known IN the winter for several years.
There have been heavy artillery en-
Ragernents from sea to the Swiss bor-
der and occasional attacks by the in-
fantry OF the opposing armies. The
latter sometimes have added few
yards to the territory In the possess
nion OF the attacking force, but have
proved costly in dead and wounded.
The French announce slight gains
between Albert and Roye, east OF
Rheims and southwest OF Verdur.
They have also made some advance
in Aisace, but have suffered repuise
northwest of st. Menehould.
In the east the Germans have cap
fured the important Russian position
or Borjimow. but elsewhere they have
been unable TO make Roadway. The
Russian defense Is aided by the mud
DIV roads which hinder the German
movements.
The Austrians claim to have check
ed the Russian advance near Gorlicc.
but apparently the battle has not yet
been concluded. The Russians have
taken Austrian positions near Azsok
pass. This should open another Ell.
trance for them through the Carpath-
ians into Hungary. The Austrian re-
treat In Duckowina Is described by
the Russians as a rout.
The Turks have crossed the Rus
sian border in Caucasus. According
10 Constantinople. the Russian garri-
son OF Ardahan has been defeated.
The Turks. however, are displaying
anxiety ror the remaining possessions
In Europe by rushing fertilization on
the whole coast line. just what the
Turks fear Is not disclosed. 1t Is not
considered possible that the allies can
a.oA a aufficient force to prove n
menace.
The indications again point to the
possibility OF neutral Balkan states
participating In the war. The Greek
finance minister has declared that
Greece Is making preparations to
maintain the new territories which she
gained In the Balkan wars from Tur-
kew and Bulgaria II Is added how
ever. that Greece had more to fear
from Bulgaria than from Turkey.
IA also believed that Roumania Is
getting ready to Join Russia in an eff
fort to obtain added territory.
