Eight Elders in Grand Rapids
 Church Are Poisoned

Grand Rapids, Mich, Jan, 9.-Eight elders of the Seventh Reformed church here were poisoned and two of them may die as the result or drinking oak stain varnish for sacra- mental wine at the morning serVlce yesterday.

 Took Wrong Jug.
 A new elder of the church went 10 the storeroom just before the morn- ing service and by mistake picked up a tug of the varnish, containing tur- pentine and other paint poisons. The sacramental wine for communion IS kept on a shelf just above the varnish which had been used in recent repair ing of the pulpit and the wooden work in the church.
 The pastor, the Rev. D. A. Van Iummel, had completed his sermon and communion was begun when John Riewold, the first elder to take cup, fell at the foot of the pulpit. Immediately the congregation was in a turmoil and as men rushed forward to pick up the fallen elder, the other seven succumbed to the poison.
 Two May Die.
 pr. E. J. Vrickard was called and had two of the elders taken to hos pitals, and the rest removed to their homes Elder Kolkerysma and Elder Riewold are not expected to live and the other six are said to be seriously i'll.
 Dr. Van Lummel, telling of the poison, said:
 "Our church completed a new choir loft only few days ago. The last wort-that of vanishing and pol ishing--was finished Saturday. The painters had little polish left and they placed it in jug and put 1t be- hind the pulpit, where the wine is usually kept.
 His First Service.
 "Mr. Riewod was recently named and yesterday was the first day he had officiated. Among his duties is placing the wine where it can be served. I knew the wine had been kept behind the pulpit and that it was usually served from a jug. He found the jug containing furniture
