THE ANDOVER CONTROVERSY. A Denial That Dr. Eustis Called the Professors the “Andover Gang.” The hearing of testimony in the Andover con- troversy before ex-Governor Robinson, com- missioner, was resumed at Springfield, Mass., yesterday, the board of visitors opening their side of the hearing. Judge French presented papers of the late Dr. Eustis. giving his version of the charges against the visitors, and David Boynton of this city was the first witness. His testimony re- lated to the missionary concert atthe Memo- rial church, when Dr. Eustis was said to have made certain utterances, showing prejudice, alluding to the professors as the Andover “gang,” and he stated that such language was Rot used. On cross-examination witness acknowledged being hard of hearing at times, although he claimed to have heard ninety-nine-one hun- dredths of what was said at that meeting. Wit- ness was not specially interested in theological uestions. Deacon Dewitt also testified that De. Bustio csid nothing st the meeting in ques- tion about the Andover professors and never called them a “gang.” He did not read from any book but the Bible and hymn book. Wit- ness had never heard Dr. Eustis express any Dias against Professor Smythe. Witness said he and Dr. Eustis had discussed progressive orthodoxy in a general way. Among other witnesses were Dr. C. 8. Hurl- but and R. W. Rice. In the afternoon the case was adjourned till September, when argument will be reached. pes One CARDINAL GIBBONS’ EW BOOK. Some Points from “Our Christian Heritage’’—A Reference to Buddhism. An Associated Press dispatch from Baltimore saysof the new book, “Our Christian Her- itage,” written by Cardinal Gibbons, which will appear next October: The book is not polemical. It does not deal with the contro- versies agitated since the reformation, nor aim at vindicating the claims of the Catholic church as superior to those of the separated branches of Christianity. It has nothing to say against any Christian denomination that still retains faith in the divine mission of Jesus Christ. On the contrary most of the topics treated still find zealous advocates in Protest- ant writers. Nor was it written in the hope of influencing professional free-thinkers, ag- nostics and other avowed enemies of Christi- anity, but those who, through association, the absence of Christian training, a distorted edu- cation and pernicious reading have become es- tranged from the teachings of the gospel—those who have never shared in the Christiun heri- tage of their fathers. The book is intended to show that such fundamental truths underlying Christianity as the existence, the providence and the omniscience of God, the immorality of the soul, the existence of free will and the es- sential distinction between moral good and evil are all susceptible of being demonstrated by our unaided reason, while they are made still more luminous by the light of Christian revelation. It furnishes Christians with argu- Mments to meet the sophistries of free thinkers and seeks to enlighten the sincere inquirer after truth. PAGANISM VERSUS CHRISTIANITY. To those who think Christianity has outlived its day and is unsuited to our times, and would fain supplant it by Buddhism, which they re- gard as less exacting in its tenets and as ap- pealing to the highest aspirations of man’s na- ture, the cardinal replies that there is no good feature in Buddhism which is not eminently found in the Christian religion. To show what blessings Christianity has conferred on the hu- man race, even in a temporal point of view, the latter part of this volume contains a series of chapters exhibiting the superiority of Christian over pagan civilization. The cardinal concludes the introduction with this: “How rapidly have the sectional hate and fierce animosities engendered by our late civil war been allayed. In both houses of Congress and several of our state legislatures are found to- day representatives who have fought against each other, but are now fram- ing laws for the welfare of our com- mon country. In passing from pagan to Christian civilization we have emerged from Egyptian bondage to the liberty of the children of God. Let us not grow weary of the salu- tary restraints of Christian life.” Let us not cast wistful glances toward Egypt, from whose bonds we have been rescued, nor long for its flesh-pots. Let us glory in our Christian heritage. and, above all, let us not be guilty of the mockery’ of leading pagan lives while making profession of Christianity. One chapter is devoted to labor questions, THE STRANDED CONSTELLATION. Testimony Presented at the Harrington Court-Martial Yesterday. ‘The court-martial investigating charges against Commander Purne!l F. Harrington in connection with the stranding of the naval cadet's practice-ship Constellation June 18 re- sumed its session yesterday at the Naval acad- emy, Annapolis. Lieut. Commander W. T. Swinburne, executive officer of the ship, who was under examination when court adjourned yesterday, resumed his testimony. He said: “I heard a fog-horn calling ail hands on deck. and later heard Commander Harrington give the order to ‘wear ship.’ Before the helm got half-way round the ship struck. Almost no interval came between the order for all hands on deck and the order to wear ship. The ac- cused was certainly on deck, walking up and down, until the ship stranded.” THE WATCH OFFICER'S EVIDENCE. Lieut. J. M. Orchard, who was watch officer on the Constellation, testified: “I had the afternoon watch on June 18, the time of the accident, coming on duty about 12:30. The weather was overcast and damp, with alight mist occasionally. The sail on the ship at 2-10 was plain sail to topgallant sails, except main- sail and spanker. The ship log indicated at 1 o'clock the speed of the ship to be 7.8 knots, varying just a little at times. The breeze was steady, and we carried about the same sail all along. Shortly before 2:30 o'clock the top- gallant sails were taken in and the men sent aloft to furl them. The course of the ship at 2:10 was about south, southeast, Cape Henry, which should have been just ahead of ship, was then not in sight. Junction buoy, which was in sight, bore off the starboard beam, and was CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTIONS. Subjects Discussed in the Two Dakotas and Montana Yesterday. At Bismarck, North Dakota, yesterday, the Judiciary committee of the constitutional con- vention agreed on dividing the state into six judicial districts and favors the establishment of an appellate court, the judges of which shall be elected, and which shall be separate and dis- tinct from the regular district court, The ques- tion of taxation still holds the fort. A propo- sition was submitted yesterday by Bartlett of Griggs taxing by uniform rule all moneys and investments in bonds, stocks, joint stock com- panies, or otherwise, and personal property, according to its true values in money, but im- provements and cultivation of the soil shall not be considered in arriving at the cash value of lands, but all lands of the same quality and kind shall bear equal taxation. Scott of Barnes strikes at the secret sessions of the Senate by proposing that in acting on executive nomina- tions the senate shall sit with open doors, and in confirming or rejecting the nominations of the governor the vote shall be taken by yeas and nays. Parsons of Morton proposed to abolish the labor black list, providing that any citizen of br state shall be free to obtain em- ployment wherever possible. Any person or en! gree ieeping a black list interfering with this right shall be deemed guilty of con- spiracy against the welfare of the state and be punishable for felony. Articles were introduced as follows: Pro- hibiting the forming of trusts or combines to control the price of any product, and provid- ing for the forfeiture of charters and franchises of companies violating the provision; also pro- viding that no act of the legislature shall take effect until the first day of July next after its passage. Establishing boards of arbitration to decide differences between corporations and employes. SOUTH DAKOTA. At the Sioux Falls, South Dak., convention yesterday the forenoon was consumed by the judiciary committee in an effort to arrive at an understanding concerning the arrangement of the judicial districts. It seemed to be the pur- pose of the majority of the committee to make the districts as compact in form as possible. A part of the committee endeavored to postpone all action on the subject of districting until next week, but the matter was pushed to a yote, and a resolution was adopted providing for eight judicial districts. MONTANA MEN GET DOWN TO BUSINESS. The convention at Helena, Mont., yesterday got down to business and the work commenced in earnest. Rickards, chairman of the commit- tee on education, reported on article 9 of the constitution of 1884 providing for the mainten- ance of a general system of public schools free for all children from six to twenty years. The governor, the superintendent of public instruc- tion, secretary of state and attorney-general shall constitute the state board of land com- missioners. It shall be the duty of the legisla- ture to provide by taxation for sufficient means in connection with the amount received from the general school fund to maintain public free common schools in each organized district at least three months each year. General control and supervision of the state university and various other state educational institutions is to be vested in the state board of education, to consist of eleven members, the governor, state superintendent of public instruction, and attor- ney general, being members ex officio, The other members are to be appointed by the gov- ernor. the convention resolved itself into a com- mittee of the whole, and the general file was taken up. A discussion arose over the wording of the preamble to the constitution. It now read: . the people of Montana, grateful to the Almighty God for the blessings of liberty, in order to secure the advantages of state gov- ernment do, in accordance with the provision of the enabling act of Congress approved the 22d day of February, A. D. 1889, ordain and establish this constitution, A long discussion arose over Clark’s motion abolishing the grand jury. Clark wants it rele- gated as a relic of the dark ages and as being an aid to people’s personal spite. The matter was referred back to the committee on judiciary without restrictions. The committee of the whole arose, reported progress and adjourned, —-ee—______ How It is Done in Boston. From the Boston Herald. A good lesson was taught by a girl friend of mine to her fiance a few days ago. I admire it because Iam aware ofthe manner in which many of the young men of the present day im- agine they can treat a girl whom they have asked to become a wife. Let us call the girl Marie. She has been at her summer home on the Hudson for the past month. Her intended husband, whom we will designate as Dick, isa lawyer, and he has insisted that since hi: eet- heart has left the city he has been occupied #0 continually that to visit her, except on Sunday, was outof the question. A few days ago a cal- low and loquacious youth was at her summer home and, among other things, he let drop the information that Dick was having a high old time just now. “Indeed,” said Marie; “what do you call a good time, pray?” “Well. about with company.” That was enough for my bright little friend. Within two days she had the whole situation mapped out for her. She went to the city and called on a cousin of hers, a fellow who thought a great deal of her and would serve her in any way. She learned that on a certain night of that week Dick and his friend were to occupy a box together at a theater, “Now I want you to invite some men of the same character as the woman he will have with him,” said Marie to her cousin, “Some men that he knows by sight.” The cousin proposed, among others, a dealer of a faro bank and a middle-weight prize fighter, with whom he knew Dick was familiar. She begged that both of these men should be dressed as well as possible. and it was agreed that she should sit with them in the box ex- actly opposite Dick’s, while the obliging cousin should station himself out of sight behind the curtains. Everything progressed most delightfully. When Dick, in company with bisbionde fricnd, and another young fellow who had charge of a big brunette lady, entered his box his features were ornamented by a fine, satisfied smile. The party got itself comfortably ensconced, and then Marie and her escorts appeared in the op- posite box. The beautiful girl took her chair with an air of complete placidity, and every now and then turned to direct a’ smiling re- od time, I suppose, to trot € prettiest girl in the Folly opera | mark to the faro deuler or to the prize fighter. About two minutes later Dick dashed into her about a quarter of a mile away. My duty was to see the ship set on her course and steadicd, and also that she held her course. There were on the bridge for the purpose of locating the ship the chart and chart-board, perhaps others, but I can not tell what they were. The look- outs stationed were only the cadet officers of the watch. especially the officer of the fore- castle. It is part of the duty of the officer of ‘the forecastle to be colored as such and stationed as a regular lookout. I told this one to keep a lookout ahead, and he reported some of the buoys which we passed. He may have reported all of them. Shortly after I came on deck I saw a seaman placed in the lee-chains throwipg the line. The midship- man of the quarter-deck was stationed to pass the soundings by order of the commanding of- ficer. I did not keep the run of the soundings ae they were taken. but I did hear of one sound- ing of eight fathoms, which I think was taken before we reached Junction buoy. He kept his station on the quarter-deck. He was sta- tioned to pass the soundings, I think, just after lo’clock. I saw him at the gangway for a while. During my watch the wind was north- easterly. The ship struck the beach about 240. The course of the ship was changed sev- erai times while I was officer of the deck from # half to a quarter of a point ata time. I can- y particular change after that, as I ution of putting them in the log. I left the ship immediately after she struck and returned next morning, when I found the rough Jog nad been written up by one of the midship- men of the watch. Icorrected the log after- wards by making one or two changes.” CROSS-EXAMINATION. In reply to questions from the accused, wit- mess said: ‘The weather was not clear, some- though Ihad no trouble in find- ing bu One of them, No. 4,1 saw about 8 miles away.

Not until you send those swomen away,” re- plied Marie, with exasperating calmness, Marie had won a great victory. ‘Dick ex- cused himself from the actresses and lett the theater with Marie, taking her to the house of a friend, where she was stopping. The engage- ment was partly broken.

At any rate, the breaking of the engagement is not to be formally an- nounced, ene Fo een a Stop the Examinations. From the Illinois School Journal. The better schools of this country ought by this time to have reached that stage in their growth that final examinations for promotion should stop. When a competent teacher is em- ployed, or when the supervision is close and the supervisor efficient, a “final examination” will give no information as to the qualifications of the pupils. Where both of these conditions are wanting, the “formal examination” may still be useful; but it is, like whipping in a school, a confession of weakness. The monthly and final examinations mark a period in the growth of method and efficiency in teaching. When everything was in a chaotic state, without order or system, as was true of common schools thirty years ago, the institu- tion of an examination was a necessity. Where such a condition now exists it is @ neces- ty. We do not know of a better expedient ringing order out of the chaos of of the schools in the different counties of the state. But when order and an instruc- tion prevail, and the teacher has any fitness for his place, the idea that a “final examination” cuts any figure in estimating the value of his k, or the fitness of the i vance- psc should be discarded, hapiacte means to an A machine pop SE unknown is without edge of power. the value as al THE EVENING.

Gen. Crook spoke forcibly for s few mo- ments, He told them that this commission had been sent here by the President for the purpose of ex] an act of Congress, and that it had rose its duty. If any one did not understand the commissioners were ready to explain. If any one wanted to sign they should be allowed to do so. Matters were in a bad shape if @ lot of breech-clouted, blanket In who had just come on the reserva- tion and cared for nothing so long as they got enough to eat, were allowed to prevent these Indians, who were trying to provide for the future of their children, from signing He said if the police could not protect them he ould bring men here who could. He wanted it distinctly understood that those who chose to sign would be protected. This effectively silenced the disturbance. The police prevented the crowds from greed around the signing Indians, and opened alarge jane for them through the hostile faction. Sig- natures were taken rapidly for an hour and are continuing slowly. There were 100 signers at 5S p.m : The Opposition there is thoroughly organ- ized and has the support of the majority of the police force and of all the wealthy half-breeds at other agencies.

Port-au-Prince Assaulted—Great Ex- citement Among the Inhabitants, The New York Times publishes a letter from Port-au-Prince, dated July 7, which says: “Port-au-Prince within the last few days has been in a state bordering on frenzy. Mippolyte has assaulted the extreme outworks. He is being held in check at the present writing. Legitime is impressing into the ranks every man capable of carrying a rifle. The people have been delirious with excitement. The minister of war has executed some of the prisoners with his own hands, Hippolyte is burning farm houses and villages in the very sight of the city.

A system of signals has been established with the American consulate, and the moment the danger flag is exhibited, picket infantry companies from the Kearsarge and Ossipee will be sent ashore, The captain of the British cruiser declares that if one Englishman is touched he will shell the city.

Asaresult of the evictions upward of sixty families, numbering about three hundred persons, are now located on the levee without shelter of any kind, guarding their smal possessions and appealing to the city for either work or food. ‘he city aided the syndicate agent in ciearing the property of squatters and razing their houses. A force of twenty men of the engineer's department, protected by Police Lieut. Cook and a squad, was employed in locating the streets and re- moving the shanties which were within street lines. Some of the squatters have lived on the flats as long as fifteen years, but the continual presence of the officers cowed them and there was no show of resistance. The women pleaded and cried in vain, aud the men stooa by stoic- ally and watched the destruction of their shanties. The syndicate plat, the ground, and the streets will be graded, and the property over which there has been so much dispute will be put on the market for sale. 7 se0- — FOREIGN NOTES, The Swiss socialists have decided to send a protest to the bundesrath against the action of the procureur-general in regard to German refugees, ‘The socialists propose to appeal to the popular vote against the creation of a pub- lic prosecutor’s department, The London Jockey club will withdraw the license of R.
