Arguing the Case Before the Washing- ton Presbytery. under the guidance of Mr. Gladstone they would trace the great Times conspiracy to its end. Prince Louis de Ligne and Vicomte de Jonghe fought a duel at midnight by torchlight ina French forest. Only the trees were wounded. Atan election held in Zolle, Hanover, Monday, for member of the reichstag, the national lib- eral candidate was defeated by the nominee of the old Hanoverian party. ‘This is the eighth loss of a seat to the government since the gen- Mr. LG. Kimball finished his argument in | €T#! election in 1887. behalf of Assembly church before the presby- tery last night after speaking five hours, He argued against the validity, in morals or law, of the claim of F. M. Colclazier against the church, based on a loan of $3,000 made to the church thirty years ago through persons pur- Porting to be sgents and trustees of the church. When Mr. Kimball concluded Justice Strong, a member of the committee of the presbytery that investigated the matter, argued ia favor of the validity of the claim. Mr. Kimbail’s argument was directed to show that the board of trustees who contracted the loan was illegally constituted and had no legal authority, and, further, that the church had never received any benefit of the loan, and the congregation as a body knew nothing of it un- til steps were taken to enforse the payment. A piece of testimony he produced that created something of a sensation was a letter from the late Rev. John ©. Smith, of the 9th-street church, the founder of the Assembly church, Written about the time that a sale of the latter church was advertised, denouncing the loan transection as a wrong both to Mr. Colclazier and to the church, “I don’t suppose,” said Mr. Kimball in ex- plaining his theory, “these trustees really Imeant to commita wrong, but the idea was that they would borrow this money to help out their pastor and that the congregation need never know anything about it; that be would RS it back and all would be made right.” ferring to facts stated in the argument con- cerning the payment for an organ, Mr. Kim- ball stated 1t as his conclusion that the pastor, Kev. Mr. Caruthers. had collected the money, but instead of paying it for the organ put it in his own pocket and gave the organ manufac- turers, Jardine & Co., his notes. QUESTIONING THE LETTER. Dr. Sunderland, calling attention to the let- ter of Dr. Smith, said that while he did not question the genuineness of the letter, yet, as there was a record book of the Fourth church containing Dr. Sinith’s writing. he thonght it would be well for the members of the presby- re the two specimens of hand- rmselves. A number of the members acted upon this suggestion In conclusion Mr. Kimball said the church claimed that th was no legal or moral obliga- tion resting upon it. He claimed that the adop- tion of the pending report would place a stigma upon assembly church. If such action was mpted by sympathy for this old man, hurches should assume the burd No doubt there were mem churches now who were memb that time. Why shouldn't all the churches pay the debt? As for himself he felt no obligation te this money exceptas a charity, If it was put on this ground then the question was an entirely different « Bat he thought that if the attempt was made to put the obligation on all the churches, then no doubt the presbytery would regard the matter in another light. JUDGE STRONG'S ARGUMENT. When Mr. Kimball had taken his seat, Judge Strong took the floor. He thought the As- sembly church were mistaken in believing that no moral or legal responsibility rested upon them for the payment of this debt. If they thought the debt was a just one be had no doubt that they would be anxious to pay it. The agents of the church in this case were at fault, though an innocent fault it might be, but eull« fault. Conceding every claim made by the church, he maintained that the liability on the church rema‘ In regard to Dr. Smith's letter he stated that there is no evidence to t this letter ever left Dr. Smith’s study. Mr. Kimball said that he had in his safe at his 6! reply of Mr. Varnell to Dr. Smuth’s letter. “We will admit that the letter is genuin responded Judge Strong, “butwhatthen? Dr. Smith did not know the facts.” In concluding Judge Strong said that the ehurch had aoe 4 a mistake, and the only effect of the action of the presbytery would be to inform them that in the opinion of their breth- ren they had made a mistake. Neither the fact of excessive interest or operation of the statutes of limitation impaired the moral responsibility to discharge the debt. It had been contracted by the agents of the charch, a portion, at least, had been used for church pur- poses, and its repudiation could not be justitied on moral grounds Upon the conclusion of Judge Strong’s argu- ment the presbytery, at 16:30, adjourned until this morning. then e ————-_—_ From Rockville. EWS AND GOSSIP FROM MONTGOMERY COUNTY— OPENING OF THE CIRCUIT COURT—REAL ESTATE MATIERS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, Correspondence of Tux EVENING Stan. ROCKVILLE, March 18, 1889, The March term of the circuit court for this county commenced here to-day, Judges Mc- Sherry and Vinson on the bench. In his charge to the grand jury Judge McSherry con- gratulated them on the uniform good order of the county, the enforcement of the local op- tion and all other Jaws, and also called special attention to the statutes relating to the duties of the tax collectors of the county. Thos. Waters, of S., was selected as foreman of the grand jury. A large portion of the day was | taken up in calling the docket and assigning cases for trial. But few witnesses before the grand jury were present. When the Rockville academy was opened for school exercises this morning it was discovered that during Saturday or Sunday night some miscreants had visited the building, torn off the shutters, shattered the window-glass, and done much other damage to the buildi: ‘The trustees were notified by the princ an) Dr. C. K. Nelson, and workmen were at once employed to repair the damages. A strong effort will be made to discover the guilty par- ties. The town commissioners have completed the opening and grading of a new avenue at the West end of town, between the lands of Mra. Margaret Beall, the West farm. and the lands of Judge J.T. Vinson. This avenue will throw open a jarge number of desirable lots, Miss Leonora G. Haney, daughter of Mr. Jos. M. Haney, formerly of this place, died in Phil- adelphia on the 15th inst., and her remains were intersed in the Baptist cemetery here yes- terday evening. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Joseph Walker, formerly of Georgetown. Deceased was in her nineteenth year, and ix the second daughter of Mr. Haney that has been buried bere within the past month. Mrs. Amy Mille, wife of Mr. Richard Mills, of Gaithersburg district, died yesterday in the Bftieth year of her age. The county commissioners to-day awarded the contract for putting in new steel _—e in the upper ws of the jail to Mr. 8. Harey, of this place. A new porch will also be constructed on the east side of the gee An acre lot, improved by a small dwelling bouse, situated a mile from Rockville on the Georgetown turnpike, the property of Mr. Jas. Rainey, was on Seturday sold to Mr. John H. Bha’ w. On Saturday last Mr. J. E. Libbey, of George- town, purchased a claim of the Rockville build- ing association on the large brick building par-| dered to lea tially built by Mr. Chas. G. Wilson in the west end of town.

Mary Anderson No Better. THE FAMOUS ACTRESS IN A VERY LOW CONDITION. From the Philadelphia Times, To-day. The condition of Miss Mary Anderson re- mained much the same yesterday as since she arrived in the city. She continues to be very susceptible to noises. Her brother, Joseph Anderson, yesterday asked Mr. Boldt, the pro- prietor of the Stratford, the family hotel where they are staying, to isolate her as much as pos- sible from all noises. Special precautions were taken in this direction. Dr, Mitchell made a long visit. Some of her relatives are disposed to urge a trip to Europe or Bermuda, but Dr. Mitchell says that any change or the least ex- citement at present will be to her disadvantage, and he says she must remain quietly here until she shows some signs of improvement. When Miss Anderson first arrived she had a very good appetite and this was looked upon as a favorable circumstance, but within a day or two there has been a change for the worse. She eats very little and this has added to hee weak- ness, Many well-known persons called yester- day at the hotel and sent up their cards, but in no instance did Miss Anderson see any one, Arrangements have been made which will pre- her from being subjected to any interrup- tion or excitement. Friends of the famous actress admit that her mind is at present in such an agitated condition that, taken in connection with her exhausted physical condition, she must not be disturbed in any Way or the worst results may_ follo She was probably a little worse yesterday th: at any time siace her affliction, and last night was very restless. American Pi THEY ARE RECEIVED BY THE POPE, WHO PRESENTS EACH WITH A MEDAL. The pope. on Monday, gave audience to the American pilgrims. Bishop Rademacher, Mgr. Seton and the Very Rev. Charles A. Vissani pre- sented a richly bound address to the pope. His holiness gave the priests power to pro- nounce a special papal benediction upon their congregations on their return, In blessing the oritlamme carried by the pilgrims, the pope, observing the eagle, said: “America never goes back from anything.” He expressed the hope that America would soon have a national hos- pice in Palestine like other nations, The pope presented to cach pilgrim a silver medal inclosxed in a handsome case, and in re- turn received many gifts from his visitors, Lishop Wigger was absent on account of ill- ness. He will abandon the pilgrimage and re- turn to America. push Ota < How He Lost His Leg. From the New York Tribune. Colonel Pierce, of Dakota, tells of a member of the legislature of that territory who takes an interest in publie affairs, and who is in the habit of “talking right out in meeting.” Not many months ago the governor, Church, who has been at a dead-lock with the legislature al- ready, sentin the nomination of a one-legged mau for a prominent office, and it became the duty of the legislature to consider whether to to confirm it or not. This statesman to whom Colonel Pierce alludes took the floor and made a brief but effective speech, “Gentlemen of the legislature,” said he, “let us look the situation calmy in the face and see if we can stand this sort of a nincompoop in the office to which he has been nominated. He trades mostly, a8 I'm told, gentlemen, on his timber leg. but don’t be fooled on that. Did he lose his meat and bone leg in the war, gen- tlemen, did he lose it in the war? No, sir, he did not lose it in the war. Did he lose it in the harvest field? No, sir, he did not lose it in the harvest field. Then how did he lose it? you ask, and you have aright to ask it, gentlemen. It is your right to ask all questions you are a mind to about the way in which this duffer lost his leg, and I can answer them. I will tell you how he lost his leg. He was riding, gentlemen, over the prairies of is great and growing ter- ritory, turning out of their humble cottages the widows and orphdns of poor soldiers who were not able to pay rent, in the dead midst of winter. when the good and wise Creator, who shelters and feeds the sparrows and never allows the children of the righteous to be begging bread, froze hi shins off.” pers oo en Frank Jones’ Breweries. THEY HAVE BEEN SOLD FOR OVER SIX MILLION. In an interview with Hon. Frank Jones at Portsmouth, N. H,. with reference to the reported sale of his breweries, he said an absolute sale had been made and not merely a syndicate formed to place the stock on the market. The price paid was $6,300,000. The stock company had been formed, and Messrs. Jones, Cook & Sinclair re~ tained a large block of the securities, and will continue in the active management. Under the terms of the sale, Mr. Jones said he had guaranteed interest for three ‘years on £500,000, 5 per cent debentures or first mort- gage bonds, 734 per cent on £400,000 preferred ‘shares, and 15 per ceut on £400,000 ordinary ‘shares, All the papers signed, and the transac- tion was complete. Large subscriptions bave been sent to Europe tor the diferent securities, ) 0 that an actual majority of the stock is held in this country. ————ee——___ Hunting Down the Boomers.

Given a Week by a Court to Rid Her- self of a Hallucination. A special dispatch to the Philadelphia Press from Pittsburg, March 13, says: ‘‘Miss Christine Hornberger some time ago threatened to kill Peter Keitz, of the South Side, because she im- agined that he had mesmerized her. The court has now given her a week to rid herself of the hallucination or be punished. She is thirty- four years old. Eighteen years ago Miss Horn- berger met Peter Keitz at balls, After that Keitz says he did not see her until last August. Christine has been fairly well educated and is comely, but her beauty has been rapidly fading during the last six months. Some years ago Miss Hornberger was employed as a domestic by Peter Ammann. She became interested in mesmerism, magnetism. and psychology, and these things have affected her mind. ie now makes a precarious living by peddling bottles of medicine of her own make, Last August Miss Hornberger visited the home of Keitz’s mother-in-law on the South Side, and told her that she would kill Peter if he did not remove mesmeric influence‘from her. Since that time she has gone to the houses of either Keitz or his mother-in-law three or four times a week, and has repeated these threats, She says that Keitz has a remarkable influgnee over her; that he sends her almost constantly a current of electricity, which is, atom by atom, destroying her spinal cord. She claims that she made a trip to Mexico for the purpose of escaping from his influence, but that it did not avail. Keitz is a harmless-looking little man. He is an applicant for license to keep a saloon, and he thought Christine’s actions were prompted by persons who wished to get him into trouble and thus prevent him from obtaining a license. This worried him greatly and induced him to take legal action, ‘The order of the court that Miss Hornberger must rid herself of the strange influences in a week, or be further looked after by the court, was a surprise to the attorneys and others in- terested in the case. Many who have heard her talk about Keitz think she is dangerous, Since the order of the court®Miss Hornberger has attended to her own business and has not been near the Keitz residence. ao yore - Appalied at His Legs. HOW A SCOTTISH HIGHLANDER FRIGHTENED TWO FRENCH LADIES. Paris Dispatch to the Loudon Daily Telegraph. A person arrayed in full Highland costume caused terrible commotion ina railway car- riage in the Perrache station, near Lyons, yes- terda Two ladies who were in the carriage shricked as they saw the awful spectacle pre- sented by the entry into their compartment of aman without pantaloons. The Highlander, who was on his way to Nice, nevertheless, took his seat with Caledonian coolness, whereupon the ladies screamed the loude in vain that the apparition in the garb i logized and explained the situs. neh, and equally futile were the efforts of the station master, who assured the ladies that the gentleman in the dirk, the spor- ran, and the tartan accessories of properties was pertectly harmless. “You don’t run the shadow of a risk, mesdames, insisted the station master in his blandest tones. ‘The gentleman comes from a country where the men wear petticoats and do not wear trousers.” Despite everything, however, which was said in order to calm their apprehensions, the over-timid iady travelers had to be placed in a carriage ata safe distance from that in which the Caledonian stern and wild had taken up his position, a see In No Hurry. From the Chicago Tribune. Overhead glittered the stars of a cloudless sky in June, and the full moon beamed en- chantingly on a landscape wrapped in repose. Not a breath ruffled the leaves of the trees that lined the avenue along which Boliver Pyke and Buenavista McCorkle were wending their way slowly homeward from a meeting of the Gyro- geosophistical society. Not a ripple stirred the surface of the romantic frog poud on the left in whose bosom was mirrored the glorious tirmament, and not a sound came from the sub- urban farmhouse on the right, whose inmates were sleeping the deep, dreamless, reposeful sleep of deliverance that follows an evening of Trollope’s novels. exclaimed the maiden, as some- thing by the roadside reflected the ‘pale radi- ance of the moonbeams caught her eye, “what is that on the ground?” The young man stopped and looked at it, “It is nothing but a snail Buenavista,” he said. “The beauty of the night has tempted it forth, It is a wonder,” he continued,dream! “that all animate nature is not out for a mooi light stroll. The night is too lovely to be sp indoors, even in the restful slumber that tire nature exacts after a day of toil.” ‘The enjoyment of the wondrous loveliness of ing seemed too deep for words, however, and in silence the voung people proceeded slowly on their way, communing only in that voiceless yet eloquent language that expresses itself in a glance of the eye, a pressure of the hand, or the softly breathed sigh that is felt rather than heard. 0, glorious season of youth and hope, when—but we digress. Long had they walked on thus in ecstatic silence when the gentle girl again spoke. “Bolivar,” she said, “I think Isee on the ground another snail.” The young man stooped to inspect it. Rais- ing himself and slightly quickening his steps, he said: “No, Buenavista, it is the same snail!” The Passion of Fear. SOME PLAUSIBLE MEASURES FOR ITS SUBJECTION. From the Boston Budget. Fear, or dread of evil or danger, is a passion all mankind are more or less subject to; with some, however, it exists habitually in a great degree, giving rise to disease and various un- pleasant symptoms. With many persons a snd- den attack of fear causes fever, fainting, diar- rheea, convulsions, mania, and even sudden death. The influence of fear varies with dif- ferent persons; many become quite talkative, some very silent, and others again become rest- less, moving about from place to place con- stantly. Instances are recorded where violent fright has produced immediate idiocy, where the hair has been suddenly changed to a white color, and even where its vitality has been de- stroyed, so that it fell from its roots, leaving the head bald. Paleness of the countenance, a suspension of all the vital functions, tremor, a momentary paralysis of the nerves of sense, &c., are usually present among those who be- come suddenly affected with fear. All these effects are caused by the greater or less degree of depression of the vital powers which inva- riably accompanies this passion, During fatal epidemics there is no doubt that more persons suffer and die from the effects of fear than would were the passion unknown, In the season of Asiatic cholera I met many per- sons in whom all the symptoms of that epi- demic were produced solely by the debilitating influence of fear. ‘The subjection of this passion is a very difti- cult task, Persons who are subject to it may, however, overcome it toa great extent by keep- ing a careful and constant watch upon them- selves, endeavoring to cultivate a disposition to retain presence of mind under all circumstaces, and to check the first manifestations of fear, and also by the exercise as much as possible of mental fortitude. These measures, aided by a correct training of the reasoning powers, will frequently subdue the passion completely even when it exists in excesg, In the education of children, parents, guar- dians and teachers should be extremely careful s of punishment which will cal} this passion into existence; cowards are made by the tyranny of teachers and parents over the young. te] Gnantep 4 Resrrte ror Twenty-Five YEARS, Gov.
