TO ERECT CHURCH
INSIDE OFFICE BUILDING

Memphis, Tenn, Sept. GA big
12-story office building, costing $780,
900 and having a church in its center,
has been planned for Memphis.
Years ago, when Memphis was a
good steamboat town, before the ad-
vent of the railroad and when the
population was only a few thousand
the Court Avenue Presbyterian Church
was established. Memphis grew up
around the church and it is now sur
rounded on all sides by tai buildings.
The property is too valuable to be
used for church purposes alone and the
congregation decided to build an office
building on the site.
The church will be three stories high.
It's entrance will be through an alcove
and it will be literally covered up and
surrounded by the Office building.

TWO DEMOCRATS
OUT FOR TREASURER
Vinyard, Cape Leader, Does Not
Approve Party's
Choice.

Two men, both Democrats, are run
ming for the office of County Treasurer
it became known yesterday. When the
Democratic County Committee recent
ly elected a member of their party to
fill the vacancy on the ticket, string
was tied to their nomination.
Gale Wilkinson, a faEner living be-
tween Jackson and Millerville, was
first named by the committee for the
vacancy on the ticket. Wilkinson has
been known as a party worker for a
long time. However, his nomination
met with opposition in the committee
and it became known in Jackson yes
terday that it was made with 4 string
Ihitched to it.
/ It was reported that the Democrats
declared that if they could, not run
Wilkinson, Grover Golliher, of Macca-
sin Springs, would be made the NOM
ince and be placed on the ticket.
Wilkinson was not acceptible TO the
Cape township representative on the
committee On the day that the COM
mittee met in Jackson, Ben Vinyard,
the Cape's Democratic committeeman,
was unable to attend the session.
81 haven't time to waste in going
to jackson every time the rest of that
committee takes a notion to meet, "
he remarked. He delegated II. Z. Alex
ander to make the trip and gave him
his proxie.
Vinyard learned of the outcome late
Saturday night, when he expressed his
dissatisfaction with the choice OF the
committee.

TO SETTLE LESLEY
LAND SUIT TODAY
Attorneys Finish Testimony in
$2500 Farm Contest
Deal,

Taxing testimony yesterday after
noon was finished in the trial of the
land suit of J. NJ. LESLEY against S.
p. Edison, involves the ownership of a
26U-acre farm in the northern part of
Cape County.
The attorneys for the contestants
will argue the suit before Judge John
A. Snider, and a jury in Common Pleas
Court this morning and it is believed
that a determination will be reached
before noon.
According to the testimony brought
out in the trial of the case, q contract
was made some time ago between Mr..
LESLEY and Mr.. Edison, whereby Less
ly agreed to sell the farm in question
to Mr.. Edison. Edison at that time was
tenant upon the place. The pur-
chase price was fixed at S2500.
By the terms Of the contract, how
ever, LESLEY was to allow Edison a
reasonable time in which to raise
money with which to pay for the farm
when he purchased it. The loan was
to be secured by a mortgage on the
land.
While this deal was pending, ques-
ton of the title in the farm was
brought up and attorneys at Jackson
brought suit in the court to quiet the
title of the land. Under the law, three
years are allowed in which claimants
NAV appear to contest the suit to quiet
title and after the suit had been put
through the court, the loan companies
upon which Edison had depended, re-
fused to make loan for two years
Thereupon the suit for ejecting Ed
son and his family was instituted
Lessly asks the court to grant dam
ages for property damage and Edison:
attorney, Senator Thomas F. Lane
filed a cross bill asking the court tt
take cogrizance of Improvement:
placed on the farm. Lessley's attOr
ney's are Judge Edward D. Hays ant
his brother, D. B. Hays.
The trial of the suit was started
Tuesday afternoon when Mr.. Lessle!
was placed upon the stand. Mr.. Ed
son was on the witness stand yester
day rs well as several others.

NO GHOSTS EXIST,
MISSOURI JUDGE RULES

Kansas City, Mo, Sept. 27.-SpoOks !.
Are there or are there not? That is
the question.
Attorneys for z. C. Britt based a
$4,000 slander of title suit on the
fact that w. H. Eardly had testified
that in 4 big house in West Fifty
eighth street Terrace spooks walked
the halls with hollow footsteps in the
eerie hours.
Attorneys for Eardley argued that
there were no such things as ghosts,
and therefore, the mere fact a man
said that something which did not ex-
list "haunted" the house was not a
basis for suit,
Judge Lucas admitted that he had
never met a ghost face to face and de-
clared that law did not have speak
ing acquaintance with ghosts. He sus-
tanned the demurr, giving Britt's at
torneys ten days in which to file an
amended petition in an attempt to
prove SANDER by some other method
than ghosts.

DEFEATED FOR
SENATE IN N. J.
Wescott, Who Twice NOmi-
mated President, Loses
for u. S. Senate.
WILSON ASKED THAT
FRIEND BE CHOSEN
Is Beaten by Senator MARITIME by
Vote of More Than Two
to One.
Special Dispatch to The Tribune.

Trenton, n. J., Sept. 27.-John Wes-
colt, President Wilson's personal
friend and choice for the Democratic
nomination for United States Senator,
was overwhelmingly defeated by
James MARITIME, according to the late
returns from yesterdays primary.
Wescott is the man who nominated
Woodrow Wilson for President at each
of the two Democratic national con-
ventions. Four years ago he was NOM
mated for Attorney-G General of New
Jersey after his speech nominating
Wilson and carried the State.
The Wescott supporters injected
President Wilson into the campaign,
and President Wilson wrote letters to
his campaign managers urging them
to support Wescott. Ths President
came to New Jersey yesterday and
cast his vote for Wescott.
MARITIME criticized the administration
for its attitude toward Germany. This
incensed the President, and the cam
paign of MARITIME was met with strong
opposition from the Presidents
friends. MARITIME has Won by at least
two to one.
w E. Edge, Republican.pro pro-German
candidate for Governor. was nominat-
ed over Colgate and Record, his two
opponents, by lead of 10000. He
was also supported by the vets. JO
seph Frelinghausen, was nominated
for United States Senator by the Re
publicans.
The primary results are the first
defeat President Wilson has received
from his own State, except when the
State refused to accept woman suff-
rage. President Wilson defeated the
Democratic bosses when he ran for
Governor of New Jersey and he has
heretofore been able to nominate any
candidate whom he indorsed
