In two weeks Denver churches have suc- ceeded in raising $150,000 and lifting the depts off three churches of different de- nominaticns. Circulars inviting people to come to the church and contribute to the -raising were distributed, and regard- of denomination or creed, everybody Joined In the movement, and by the f of forces the end was accomplished. y M. E. Church is the most notable ample of success In debt-raising. Trmity is the largest church and the most ex- pensively constructed edifice of the Metho- dist denomination in the United States. But almest all of its liberal donors met with re , and their fortunes of mill- away like so much snow before Thus it came to pass that Trinity Church, from being the foremost thy organization in the west, felt the pressure of distress, and found mortgages confronting the trustees, with Uttle or no prospect of meeting them. The sum of $60,000 was demanded in the most imperative manner. Something had to be done, and it was done. Today there is not a cent of indebtedness, and the congre- gation breathes freer. A fair share of the amount came from Catholics, who wrote their checks for sums ranging from $500 to $1,000. The credit for the liquidation may be aseribed to Major Elijah Halford, paymaster United States army, attached to the department of Colo- rado, with headquarters in Denver. His brain attacked the subject in a way that couki only be devised by one skilled in the expedients of a newspaper training. His enthusiasm became infectious, the newspapers supplemented him with able descriptions of the efforts to float Trinity and the church became the center of an excitement that has not had its equal in the history of the city. ‘To raise $10,600 in one day, after the re- sources of the people had been drained to the last cent, was an undertaking of a stu- pendous character, but the pastor tackled the subject as manfulty as if it was his first appeal for funds. After the introduc- tory remarks a brilliant idea occurred to one man, who proposed that the roll be called by states. The first response was from an Arizona cattle man, who had just dropped in to kill time. He saw the preach- er for $100, and then a tall man in the eal- lery offered $100 for Illinois. Ohio came next with $200, while Pennsylvania and Missouri ese with $200. Indiana was holding a in & corner, and was next to res) with $300. Foreign coun- tries were called, and the first contribu- tion from over the water came from Japan. A young Jip#hése from the coast, who had been married the day before to a white teacher, was the giver of $5. Ger- many, Frande and England strove for hon- ors, and little Finland gave $1. These small amounts did more to enthuse the people than any ofthe great sums that had been reported earlier,,and then the fun began. Away up in the. topmost row of the gal- lery was @. broad-shouldered man, who shouted, “I give % for Montana,” throwing a gold coin down at the preacher. In a minute men-in: 21 parts of the house arose and threw gold and silver in the direc- tion of Dr. Cobern, the pastor. Every now and then Yr.,Cobern would turn, and, waving his ume) wildly in the air, would shout: “Sing, brothers, ging; we've got another thousand.” Then the organist would strike the keys of the greit organ with a triumphant crash and the audieace would sing, the Doxology rolling through the great church in a wave of majestic melody. “Here's two for $250 each,” said the doc- tor; “that makes $59,000 now; sing it, sing it,” and the reverend gentleman turned to the choir behind him and shouted in his enthusiasm. ‘Phe choir sang, and the peo- ple, “brere’s one for $200. That makes the 360,- 000. Now the mortgage is off. Sing, for you've rolled the mortgage off.” Then the congregation sang “God be with you till we see you again,” tn honor of Dc. Cobern, who will leave for a three months’ trip to Europe this week. The other churches that ones debts gee the past two months, are Christ M. Speers Eilgabeth's Catholle, $40,- Presbyterian, $25,000, and Firat Baptist, $25,000. Rev. Co- ions melte: the sun. M. E. Richard Clemens Jailed for a Crime and Suspected of Another. Washingtonians Put Themselves in Peril—Coming Election of Subor- dinate Officials—General News. es rors Star Bureau, ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 12, 15 A case of alleged attempt at rape threw the village of Rosslyn into a state of fever- ish excitement yesterday morning, and Richard Clemens, a burly negro, is locked up in the Alexandria Jail, charged with having committed the offense. Two young colored women, named Ophe- la Watson and Beckie Woodward,of Wash- ington came over to the Virginia side yes- terday morning to go blackberrying. While on the road near “Dead Man's Hollow,” it is alleged, they were accosted by Clemens, who made improver proposals to them. Upon being refused, Clemens, it is said, grabbed the Watson girl and tried to carry her into the bushes. With the assistance of her companion she was able to get away from him, however, and set up an m. Constable White was notified, and went in of the man. Constable Gaines saw Clemens coming down the Falls Church road at a rapid rate. Upon seeing the officer Clemens beat a retreat. He ran up the road some distance, and finally took shelter in the house of Con- staMle Gaines, without knowing whose Cleme hle before Justic fined him $ pean a re or thirt da: no money, he nd then came the fun. was made the journey one long to be re- membered hy the ble, Gaines.

As the ferry steamer Belle Haven reached this city yesterday afternoon on her o'clock trip she smashed up a small row boat and the occupants, four young Wash- irgtonians, whose names could not be learned, barely escaped with their lives. ‘The accident occurred through no fault of the steambost authoriti The Belle ven was coming into her dock at the foot of King street, and these beys rowed ahead of her i Capt.

Another New Boat. Captain E. S. Randall, proprietor of River View and a lower river steamboat route, went to Baltimore today to sign a contract with Wm. E. Woodall & Co. for building a new boat. Captain Randall has secured the contract for carrying the United States mail between Washington and Glymont and he wants a fast boat for the s boys ty ofhecrs to be a police com- a the ew beat is to be a twin screw pro: peller, and, the captain says, will be one of the finest boats on the river. It is to cost $37,000. Changes Among Clergy. Unsubstar.tiated rumors are to the effect that there will shortly be a change among the Roman Catholic clergy in this city. Rev.

William Coleman, the celebrated colored politician, who has run for many offices during the past several years, is in trouble again. This time he is charged with cruel- ly treating a child. Coleman had trouble about the child once before, and claimed it not his. The mother of the little one charges that Coleman will not take care of it. Dress Parade. The Alexandria Light Infantry will hold its regular weekly meeting and dress parade this evening.

Goslings, or, as the English call them, green geese, are most delicious eating dur- ing the latter part of June. Never buy gos- lings unless they bear the guarantee tag of the poulterer that they are absolutely free from fishy flavor. For a dinner of six get two goslings. Dress and prepare them as you would roasting chickens. Stuff them with mashed potatoes, flavored with a ttle onion, sage and chopped parsley. Rub the goslings well with sweet butter, sprin- kle with salt and pepper. Put them in a deep dripping pan and roast them until thoroughly done in a quick oven. Make a sauce from the green sour ap- ples which are plentiful in market in June. After the apples are stewed until they are perfegtly soft, strain them through a puree sieve, sweeten them slightly and stand the sauce in the refrigerator. — o+___ If you want anything, try an ad. in The Star.

From the London Telegraph. It may not be gererally known that royal etiquette forbids any royal personage of lesser degree to propose marriage to a fe- male sovereign. Accordingly it became necessary that Queen Victoria should ask Prince Albert whether he would share her lot. For a young woman this was natural- ly an awkward and rather delicate duty, but the most trying ordeal was when the queen had to make the announcement of her wedding to the privy council. At one time there was a possibility that the marri- age would not take place, owing to the de- sire of pros queen that she should not be married too the intention of telling hi heart that if she eng hi oval <sogren her mind she must understand that he could not wait for a decision as he had done at a former period, when the mar- It was at the bouquet shi her boy lover, eee the signin = of the Se being tightly button- from waist to thi green Rune”, uniform, ma vin bis tom de a cut in his t above the heart and put thé flowers within it.
