Buy em on the seller honor.
 A man is safe when he buys clothes that way. - That is he is safe if the seller has honor It's safe to depend the seller for style but fool seller would sell style that wasn't adapted to him.
 It's safe to depend the seller for quality of fabric: no seller of honor would offer poor quality of fabric Not if he expected to sell that man again. These two the main points, All the others follow. seller who can be trusted on them can be trusted everything.
 He will make that clothes t that they are thor oughy tailored that they will meet the service-demands of the man who buys them.

 Collars are mostly large; some round, many square, Belts are, the majority of them, simply across front Sometimes there unique side belts
 From the waist, practically all coats fall in graceful draped lines number of models are loose almost from the shoulders.

MINISTER LOSES POST HAD EIGHT
 WIVES ITS SAID
Rev. Arthur WOrthingtOn As serted to Be Really Samuel
 0. Crawford.
TWICE SENT TO JAIL
 FOR TRANSGRESSIONS
Got Money on Stories of In heritances, Church's
 Accusation Is.

Poughkeepsie, Oct. 27-The Rev. Arthur Worthington, as he has been known since he came to this section several years ago, was deposed yes- terday from the ministry by tribunal of the Presbyterian church, composed of eight clergymen and six laymen.
 Worthington, who is 6S years old, was found guilty on three charges:
 First, of entering the Christian ministry under the name of Arthur Worthington, whereas his rightful name is Samuel Oakley Crawford.
 Second, of obtaining money under false pretenses from Robert Hutchin- son and B. P. Wayne of New Ham burg and the Rev. F. J. Stanley of Newburgh.
 Third, of blasphemy, in having said, when he appeared before the Pres bytery for admission to the ministry, "Gentlemen, I have never during my life committed an act which would tend to cast dishonor or discred1t upon the name of Christ"
 Eight Wives, Record Says.
 The testimony at the trial shows Worthington has had a checkered career. According to the tribunals s records he has married eight times, several of his wives being still nv1ng' and he has used eleven aliases
 At twenty-two he married a ste- nographer in Philadelphia, and the evidence brought. out is that he de- serted her, going to Albany, where he later served a term in the penitentiary. the record runs.
 Another marriage was in Georgia. This wife, according to the record, he deserted in Chicago. He married Mrs. Plunkitt in New York city by what he termed a heavenly mar riage." it is charged and acquired $20,- 900 belonging to MT. Plunkitt, who signed a release of both wife and for tune.
 worthington and his wife went to New Zealand, where he organized "TempIe of Culture" with his wife as high priestess. Here he got between $3O,O00 and $4O,000, f is said, on the strength of supposed inheritance that was coming to him.
 The tribunals record shows that in New Zealand he was in prison from 1902 to 1908.
 Was Admitted to Presbytery.
 Next Worthington came to this sec- ton and applied for admission to the North River Presbytery. He was ac- cepted and assigned to the church at New Hamburg, which position he held until about a year ago, when he re- signed.
 On the trial yesterday the Rev. F. J. Stanley of Newburgh testified that he had advanced $1, 400 to Worthington on the strength of a supposed inheritance from New Jersey estate. Worthing- tond showed papers supposed to be signed by a clerk of the Chancery Court and by the secretary of state of New Jersey. These have since proved to be forgeries, it was reported to the tribunal.
 Worthington also was accused of ob- tadning $1,0O0 from B. P. Wayne by the method described by MT. Stanley. In the Wayne case, however, the estate was supposed to be in England.

the hands of the city treasurer the taxpayers of the Ninth and Tenth dis tricts were assessed for the payment of the Knowlton street sewer. Our districts have been compelled to suf- fer a nuisance for years causing re- duction in the values of our property, fight a law suit in court, personally stand the expense and now are assess ed to pay the cost of abating a nuis- ance caused by the entire city in the disposal of it's garbage. The commit tee held that we had serious griev- ance and requested the aldermen to take action to obtain relief.
 At the next meeting the above all dermen at our request met with us and reported that they had placed the matter before his honor. the may or, and that he had taken the matter seriously and they believed action would be taken to grant us some re- lief at the next council meeting.
 Our next meeting of the committee was held after the council meeting of October 16. We learned that a resolution was presented by Alderman Primrose, Aldermen Kearns, Roder and Steigler .concuring. The gist of which was that the citizens of the Ninth and Tenth distri cts had suffered a hardship and that the matter be referred to the city attorney for his opinion as to how the hardship could be legally removed; the matter was referred to the city attorney by the mayor. The aldermen sent the com- mittee word that there was nothing to do but wait. As one of the alder en had suggested your committee re- ahzed that the Mills of the gods grind exceedingly slow decided that it was inexpedient to wait and sent letter to each one of the aldermen suggest ing that it was not really necessary to wait and requesting that something be done at the special meeting of the council, Oct. 1s, as it was necessary for your committee to make a report in the near future.
 'Final1y your committee have to report that they find: First-That the $200,000 bonds which they believ- ed was to be used to build the sewers ordered by the court was issued as regular sewer bonds; $14,500 will be used to pay for the city's one-fourth share of the cost of the Knowlton street sewer. The, taxpayers whose property drain into this trunk sewer have been assessed three-fourths of cost as provided by the city charter; the rest of the $20O,000, or about $185,50 will be used to pay the city's share of sewers fin other parts of the city.
 "Second-That no intelligent effort as far as we could learn was made by our aldermen at the proper time to avoid the placing of this unjust assessment upon our district.
 "Third-That the improvement compelled by the court injunction has been successful in abating the nuis- ance in part We,however, still have the overland odors with us and as the officials of the city have lately signed a ten year contract for the re- duction of it's garbage as in the past we see no relief unless we again ap- peal to the courts or obtain a city governent that will conduct our city affairs on business basis which will
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-10-27

be equally fair to all sections of our city.
 "Fourth-We requested our alder en to meet with us on the 20th, our final committee meeting; they, how ever, failed to communicate with your committee in any amer.
 "It is the opinion of your committee that we have failed to obtain the de- sired relief. and respectfully request that we be discharged.
 Respectfully submitted"
