Miller said he never asked or learned how Johus Bot into the Ryan case and that he never recelved anything from Johns directly or indirectly. Charles D.

The case is that of thq Rev. George C. Kettell, formerly assistant rector of Christ church, Baltimore. His wife was originally Miss Bessie Bro@ighton of Pocomoke City, Md. She married Rev, Clarence Frankel in February, 1900} and six months later they move to Nebraska, where her husband was a missionary. Released in South Dakota, Later she secured a divorce In South Da~- kota on the grounds of nonsupport, un- faitafultiess and cruelf®. Bhe then came back to Pocomoke City, became acquainted Mr. Kettell and the couple were married on July 29, last, by Rev. Charles A. Hansel, vicar of Grace Church chapel, Baltimore. Shortly after this Mr, Kettell resigned from Christ church. Christ church at Palmyra, N. Y., about ten miles from Philadelphia, offered the rectorship of that church to the young rector on the recommendation of Bishop Scarborough before he was married. He accepted after Informing the directory of the church that he had married a divorced woman, but when he went to Tremton, N. J., to get the approval of the Bishop, which is necessary, when a clergyman of the church goes from one dincese to another, he was refused. The dissapointed rector notified the vestrymen at Palmyra, vacated the pulpit and accepted a position as in- structor in the Episcopal academy In this city pending the settlement of the contro- versy. The parishioners of Christ church took up the matter and appealed to the bishop to reconsider his deciflon, but this he would not do. Meetings were held at the church and the parishioners finally became di- vided, a majority of them, it is said, de- clding to take the view of Bishop Scarbor- ough. Some of the more ardent supporters of the Rev. Mr. Kettell want to take the matter to the clvil courts, and it is sald this probably will be done. CHRISTIAN CHURCH WORKERS First Session of the International Missionary Convention Held at Detroit.

There were 600,000 women in the church, she declared, but not one in fifteen give a helping hand in missionary work. If all these members took their part théy would employ in our own land 1750 evangelists and workers, where there are now 120 engaged. Continuing Mrs., Atkinson sald: “‘There are in the employ of the board, including native helpers, a force of 240 missionary workers. There are thirty-two schools and scholarships with a total of 3,200 scholars supported by the organization. It opened the first Protestant orphanage in Porto Rico and will open & second one this year." ITALIANS ASSAULT WOMEN Plekets Stationed Near Rag Factory.

BORIS SARAFOFF Man Who Was ul of Mae Insurrect Killed in Skirmish, IS DEAD LONDON, Oct. 16.—A parliamentary paper was issued tonight dealing with Macedonlan affairs during the last month.
