The officers of the West Street Presby- terlan Church, West Washington, of which the Rey. William C. Alexander, D. D., is pastor, met at the church one evening this week and commenced preliminary arrange- ments for entertaining the members of the Presbyterian synod of Baltimore, which is to meet in this city beginning the 19th of Octoker, and hold its sessions in the West Street Church. The synod includes in its territories the presbytery of New Castle (Delaware and the eastern shore of Maryland), the presby- tery of Baltimore, and the presbytery of Washington city. One hundred and sixty- three ministers are working within its con- fines and they minister to 24,661 communi- cants; who worship in 148 churches. While not as strong numerically as some of the northern synods, it compares favorably financially with them and under its jurls- diction are such fine church edifices as the Brown Memorial, Baltimore, and tne New York Avenue and Covenant Churches in_ this city. Pastor Alexander is arranging the pro- gram, but the only thing definitely fixed in regard to ii is that the opening sermon on the evening of October 18, at 8 o'clock, is to be preached by the Rev. J. R. Milligan of Wilmington. The synod will continue in session two days, and after the opening session, wher an organization will be ef- fected, it will listen tu reports of com- mittees, and discuss them and such new business as may he brought up. The two most important topics which will probably be discussed will be the ques- tion of contributions for missions and the status of New Windsor Coliege. The synod is a liberal. giver, but yet has fallen be- hind in its collections, and for this reason a plan is to be devised by which this may be remedied. The acting president of New Windsor College, Rev. Charles B. Rams dell, D. D., pastor of the North Presby- terian Church of this city, will state that arrangements have been made to place the college under the control of the presbytery of Baltimore, and will then ask to be re- lieved of his duties as chairman of the synod committee. He has placed the col- lege on a firm financial basis and has raised its standard, but the present inten- tion is not to have the synod assume con- trol of it for some years. : ae Go Comfortably.

Very few German women attempt to at- tend lectures. Several bave taken degrees at Heidelberg, but they were the daughters of members of the faculty, and persons of exceptional character. The prejudice among the German people in this respect is in- tense, although it is becoming considerably modified. The effect of the women's con- gress, which was held in Berlin last year, is being felt throughout the whole empire. it modified public sentiment considerably by demonstrating that educated women were not necessarily anarchists, lunatics or guys. At this meeting appeared some of the ablest, the handsomest and most ac- complished women in the. world. They dressed and acted like ladies, and the social gatherings which were given in honor of the congress were as brilliant as any that have ever occurred in Berlin. The influ- ence of this fact has been marked, and there is a much greater degree of tolera- tion toward the activity of women than there was before. . Twenty years ago Frau Dr. Peters was sent to jail for “creating discontent” among the women of Germany. Today there is a weman lawyer practicing in Berlin, Frau Kempin, a graduate of the University of Zurich, who stands well in the profession and is much respected by the bar. There are several organizations of women, with a newspaper called the Frauenwohl (The Welfare of Women), that is issued every week and has a large circulation. THE INQUEST POSTPONED. Investigntion of the Laurel Mystery Deferred Until Tomorrow. A rumber of versons who journeyed to Laurel last evening to hear the testimony expected to be adduced at the continuation of the coroner's inquest in the case of the finding of the decomposed remains of an unknown person in Kellogg’s woods Sun- day, September 5, were disappointed by the announcement that the hearing was postponed until tomorrow. Justice Jackson gave as an explanation for postponing the inquest the necessity of securing the attendance of imvortant wit- nesses from Baltimore, and also the un- avoidable absence from Laurel last even- ing of a member of the jury. No further action has been taken in the case at Laurel beyond an effort on the Part of one of the physicians to determine the sex of the deceased by a careful exam- ination of the bones of the skeleton. ae He Killed a Cat in the Pulpit. From the Philadelphia Press. Perhaps the most unique performance ever attempted by a preacher of the gospel is that of killing cats in the pulpit to illus- trate sermons. Ye: this is what Rev. W. L. Laufman, pasto. of the Methodist Epis- ecpal Church at Cadillac, Mich., has been deing. On a recent Sunday morning, while the pulpit, he exterminated two cats by placing drops of nicetine on their tongues to show the danger of using tobacco. Again he killed cats by dosing them with alcohol. This was done during a temperance ser- mon, end at the same time he exhibited the pickled stemach of a man who has long been filling a drunkard’s grave. In speaking of killing cats by nicotine Dr. Laufman says: “My course of procedure was decided upon because [ desired to bring to the attention of the men of my copgre- gation the truth of the harmfulness of to- bacco, which is so often demonstrated in our laboratories. I had no notion of spring- ing a sensation, and as my church is al- vays crowded it certainly was no clap-trap scheme, as some have charged, to draw a crowd to my church. I believe in the sci- entific demonstration of truth and often use the laboratory as well as my Bible to prove it. “In the part of the lecture following the cat-killing experiment I discussed the way that tobacco poisoning shows itself, not by immediate death, but by attacking the weakest organs of each individual. In one man it induces consumption, in another dyspepsia, in another paralysis, and I sub- stantiated my remarks by medical testi- mony. Then I showed the fact that this peison is transmitted to posterity.” ¢ <oo—___ If ‘you want anything, try an ad. in The Star.

Many Paris houses are now lighted with electricity, and the dining rooms are ren- dered especially brilliant on festive oc- casions by exquisitely arranged incandes- cent light. There is no end to artistic ap- plications of this rival to the aristocratic wax candles of other days, but it is a novelty worthy of note when the electric light finds its way into the dishes on the dinner table. A jelly in the midst of which the electric light was set caused a sensa- tion at a recent fashionable dinner party. The effect was enhanced by the fact that it had been arranged as a surprise for the company. The dish. had been on the table all the while, but it was concealed under a large silver cover, which, in turn, was hid- den by masses of superb flowers. When the cover was removed the effect was elec- trifying. Beautiful as it was, the guests insisted on eating it up. One lady, how- ever, insisted that in the jelly she detected a taste of the electric “juice,” and another declared she felt as if she was swallowing a Leyden jar; but everybody approved the ingenuity of the chef in concocting thia dish of “sweetness and light.” And this reminds me of a glorious lamp shade that I ran across in a store the other day. It was a globe for an electric light, and made of Japanese shells of iridescent pearl, interlaced by gold filigree work that seemingly held these wonders of the deep in a net. When the light shone through the effect was like a smoldering fire within each shel, and when the radiance was turned off the richness of the design was like that of some barbaric jewel, all gold and pearis.

E, Gordon, M. P., Discusses Mat- ters Of Faterest, ae ghee SUCCESS OF RES POSTAL BANKS Poor Outlook "in England for Bi- metallism. PEACE EVER WITH AMERICA Mr, J. E. Gordon, member of the English parliament, has been in this city for a few days, and while here called-on President McKinley. He had a very pleasant talk with the President, and, referring to his Scotch nativity, recatled the fact that the President himself was of Scotch descent. Mr. Gordon is one of the youngest mem- bers of paritament, and is exceedingly well informed in legislative matters. He has the distinction of being the only son of a life peer ip the house of commons, his father being the late Lord Gordon. Since arriving on American soil Mr. Gordon has teken great interest in his observations here. He expressed himself as much im- pressed by the activity of New York city, which seemed astounding to him, although for twenty years he has made his home in the heart of London. He expressed himself as extremely well impressed with the Presi- dent, who, he said, appeared to him to have the virtues of Napoleon without his vices, and he thought the Napoleonic fea- tures of Mr. McKinley quite remarkable. Mr. Gordon referred to the employers’ liability bili, lately passed by parliament, as a remarkable step for the improvement of the working classes of England, and conversed freely upon the relations of his country with the United States. Although he has been a@ member of parliament but two years, his membership has been a very active one, his whole life having been close- ly associated with public affairs, his father not only being a member of the house of lerds, but_was minister for Scotland dur- ing two Disraeli administrations. Postal Savings Banks. When The Star reporter referred to the fact that the Postmaster General proposes to work for the establishment of a postal savings bank system in this country, and inquired as to the success of the system in force in England, Mr. Gordon promptly replied: “Nothing could be more successful. The postal savings banks of England have been‘ of the greatest’ value from a variety of points of view. First of all, the system gives undoubted security for the savings of the working classes, and teaches habits of saving to the young, who in England are inclined to spend ag they go. The ordinary young person is a spending creature, and if you can induce him to put by a small amount of savings hq and the community are benefited to that)extent. The savings of the people, although individually small, in the aggregate make a very large sum. With us the governmént invests these sav- ings in our consolidated national debt se- curities. It has guaranteed the depositors 2% per cent, and has made out of the money 2% per cent,which gave it a profit more than sumelegt if0 pay all costs of conducting the postal savings banks. But lately we have had to give 112 for these securities, so that a slight deficiency is made. But the government does not object to this for the reason'that it has made a profit in the past, and the operation of the postal banks greatly, encourages. thrift among the working classes. In the future there may be a sifght deduction in the in- terest paid on these deposits. Probably 2% per cent will be continued to be paid for deposits of {W,whilessumg over.that will probably receive only 2 per cent interest. Another advantagé of this system which accumulates the savings of the working people is that their investment in govern- ment corsols tends to enbance the: value of the government securities, ‘so that in the future doubtless government loans’ will be renewed at a lower rate of interest than they have been drawing in the past. Be- sides investing this money in government securities the government also loans it for the builoing of public works in localities that need improvement, though they may not have suffictent credit to secure the money from private sources. The ability to secure government loans at a low rate of interest causes the erection of many public works that would otherwise not be possible to secure. The system in Eng- land has proved most satisfactory, and I am sure it will be found to be quite as beneficial to the United States.” Bimetallism in England. The Star reporter asked Mr. Gordon what he thought of the chances of the bimetallic ecmmission now in England to secure some concession from that government to as- sist in restablishing bimetallism. “I think,” he replied, “your people are wasting money &nd hotel bills. My per- soral interest would cause me to favor silver, because I have ¢gertain silver cer- tificates cn which I have lost money. But the English government is in a dual posi- tion in regard to silver. Any idea that there is a chance of our home government becoming bimetallic in any way is a pure myth. It is absolutely impossible. ~The belief that some of your people seem to entertain that it is a possibility is merely a case in which the wish is father to the thought. The one heresy of Balfour is silver, and I am afraid that the fact that he indorses bimetallism is overestimated in importance by American bimetailists. He has evidently come in contact with continental and -perhaps American theo- rists on that subject, but when you listen to his arguments it is ‘if anc ‘if’ and ‘if certain things happen we can nave bimet- allism.. The local influences that influence Mr. Balfour should not be overlooked. He has a Lancaster constituency where the ectton industries have suffered from the depreciation of silver in India. Mr. Bal- four leads the house of commons, but not on the financial question. “Just think of the condition in England, and you will see that bimetallism has no hope there. The English people are pros- perous tcday. Our working pecple are prosperous. Our prosperity is greater than it has ever been in spite of competition, and to change our monetary system under these conditions appears ridiculous. Our commercial supremacy has been attained’| under our present system, and all argu- ments favor main it. Then we have a large amou: money loaned in all parts of the world, and it is not likely that that interest-would be attacked by introducing bimetadlism. No, your com- missioners are wastingtheir time in Great Britain. sty Silver in,India. - “But there is some future for silver in India. My understanding was that when the mints of India ‘Werd’ closed to the coin- age of the rupee “tt was the intention to keep them their value reach- ed a certain point,,and.that then the gov-" ernment would no konger be bound to keep the mints closed. ‘Phe population of India $2 ATLANTIC.

Of course, if Can- ada should wish to break her relations with the mother country.she is at liberty to do ‘so as a son of forty years and with inde- pendent means is at liberty to leave his fa- ther’s house. “There is another reason why peace will always be maintained between the two countries. It takes two to make a quarrel, and we have no intention of quarreling with America. It may happen that hasty decision in England might cause some such strained relation as existed during the Venezuelan controversy, but you must re- member that what was chiefly objected to then was the tone of Mr. Cleveland's letter, which was hardly in accordance with diplo- matic usages. A Splendid Isolation. “You must remember that the United States has a splendid isolation. She is without a rival in her position. On the oth- er hand, we are in England constantly hav- ing questions coming up that make neces- sary the greatest diplomatic ingenuity in our relations with European countries. There is not a week that such questions do not come up. Our minister is given his re- sponsible place in order that he may maintain peace, and if he was to show a disposition to do otherwise he would be re- lieved of his office within a fortnight. The fact is that what you call strained rela- tions on this side of the Atlantic are mere- ly hasty views.” Speaking of the Monroe doctrine Mr. Gor- don said that England had no desire to extend her territory on the American con- tinent. She possecsed, he said, abundant territory now. He said that England would view very favorably any action of the United States looking toward the exten- sion of her government on the American continent, where there is today a lack of order. He thought that if the Unitea States. should interfere in Cuba that such action would be loudly applauded in Eng- jand. He said he could conceive that great benefit would result from such a course of conduct en the part of the United States. Referring again to what had been spoken of as Strained relations between England and America Mr. Gordon said he could cenceive of a possible conflict between England and other nations differing in lan- guage and customs, but between England and America he could conceive no possi- bility of a conflict. Any feeling or hasty word between them he regarded in the light of what might happen between brothers or other members of the same family. But war was out of the question. Municipal Ownership. Mr. Gorden spoke of the great advances that had been made in England and Scot- | he has done busiress in a 7 land in municipal ownership, and said thac | all such experiments had been justified by good results. The policy of having street railroads, the telegraph, gas and electric light works operated by municipalities he regarded as fixed, There wa y to call a halt in the further develop- ment of that policy, but rather feelin’ that it should be further pursued. S policy, he said, was apt to prevent priv companies from putting in plants of the most durable character because there wae an‘ uncertainty about their being dispos- sessed by the government, and he thought some injustice had been done in the ac- quisition of franchises in London, as the owners of them had perhaps not been fully compensated for what was taken. Mr. Gordon will return to England tn a couple of weeks, and in the meantime will visit some of his American cousins in Phila- delphia. fs a >— Only One Perfectly Equipped railroad to Atlantic City—the Penr nia.

We are at last to have a test of the power of the federal courts to interfere where there is a conflict of jurisdicticn or a con- flict of laws, due to the different statutes in different states by which divorce is regu- lated. In this state, where the common law marriage is acknowledged by the courts, there is almost a conflict between the statutory regulations and the common law, so that it is sometimes impossible to establish whether parties are living in bigamy or not. That, however, is a subject of which our own courts can take jurisdiction, so that there is a remedy at hand here. But it is believed that there are very many per- sens who have obtained divorces in good faith according to the laws of other states, who do not krow whether subsequent mar- riages are legal here or not, or what their precise status before the law is. A very important, and perhaps because decisive case, is to be brought in the United States court within a few days which will determine whether the federal courts have jurisdiction in disputed cases of this kind.
