Chinese Laborer Is a “Student” in a \ Sunday School. ‘Washington, April 21.—The supreme court of the United States has decid- ed that Liu Hop Fong, a Chinaman who came to the United States in 1899 us a student but who has since been found working, should not be de- ported, as was decreed by the United States district court of Nebraska. The latter declared that Hop had only studied to the extent of twenty les- sons in a Sunday school and, finding that his certificate declaring that he was coming to the United States for the purpose of engaging in the pursuit of scholastic knowledge was fraud- ulent, ordered that he be sent back to China. The supreme court’s opinion ‘was by Justice Day and reversed the order of the Nebraska court. Justice Day took the position that there was no testimony before the district court to justify the disregarding of the cer- tificate as was done by that court. BAN ON MERRY WIDOW HATS Reduce Seating Capacity and Drive Out Men Worshippers. Burlington, N. J., April 21.—Several local churches have proposed a ban upon “Merry Widow” hats in the con- gregation during services. Pastors de- clare that men are becoming fewer at the services as the number of big hats increases and that the popular style threatens to make many male backsliders. Ushers in some of the more crowd- ed churches were at their wits’ ends to seat their Easter congregations. Pews which have comfortably accom- modated six persons would hold no more than four when the quartette wore large hats. In the prominent churches hereafter it is proposed to request women who wear their big hats to church to check them at the cloakroom during the services. GOVERNMENT WILL AGT. Russian Officials to Prossoute Foliow- ers of Father John. St. Petersburg, April 21.—The au- thorities of St. Petersburg fipally kiave decided upon the prosecution of the leaders of the notorious ‘“Johanmtte” sect, whose practices have brought the name of Father John of Kronstadt Into evil repute in the eyes of all Russians, excepting possibly the low- st classes. The dozens of men and Women who surround the supposed. saint have assumed such sacrilegious titles as the Holy Ghost, the virgin, Archangel Michael, Mary Magdalene, John the Baptist and the designations of otlier apostles and they are to be thoroughly investigated. The prose- cutor has secured material grounds upon which to bring charges. Not only will they be prosecuted for blasphemy and secret and illegal practices under the laws of religion, but for forgery, blackmail, robbery, malversation, pan- derage and other crimes, all *commit- ted under cover of religion. —_— Only One Sustains Injury.
