Since the relations be tween the church and the seminary were broken off, because ol the a’- leged heretical beliefs of some the members of the faculty, many laymen have expected an amicable adjustment that would be mutually' beneficial, might he arranged, this view, a majority of the com mittee have agreed on asking for another year’s time. The two majority reports regard an adjustment as a helpless one. The minority report states that the members of the seminary faculty have failed to answer important questions regarding their beliefs and that the answers given indicated that they had no right to recogni tion as orthodox Presbyterians.

Our sympathy goes out to the bereaved ones. There was preaching yesterdaby the pastor, Rev. Pafrish, who is do ing much good in building up the church and community at large. Many good and noble men have had charge of this church before, and among them were Rev. Carroll, Rev. Galden and Rev. Campbell. I think that that good and true man, Rev. J. M. Fushin preached his first ser mon here, and others equally loved have occupied the pulpit. Since the rain, everybody is just too busy to say good morning.

Washington, May 19.-—The move ment in California to submit tho alien land act to a referendum vote, it is understood, to be viewed by the administration, as a further oppor tunity for a diplomatic adjustment of the differences between the Un ited States and Japan. The Asiatic Exclusion League has already taken up the movement, making a submission of the act to the people very probable, the offi cials here believe. Japan Is not expected to approve of that method of dealing with Its protest, and it is further believed that Japan wants the question set tled without a year and a half de lay. S. WALKER JR. LIVES lYominent Uitiaen of Macon, Who l*oi s one<l Himself Unintentionally Holds Reception, Knowing He Must Die. Macon, Ga.. -Mav le.—B. Sanders Walker, a banker of this city, who swallowed poison last Wednesday night, mistaking it for a headache tablet, was able to be up today and experiences no pain, although the attending physicians say he cannot live. Walker gave a reception at his home Friday night, when his phy sician told him he could not live. This case is an unusual one and many friends of the young man in Thomasrille have been shocked to hear of it. He was a class-mate of two Thomasrille boys at the State University in 1903, and knew many others attending college at that time aud since then.

Yonkers, N. Y., May 19.—In a large residence, occupied only by herself and brother, on a fashiona ble residence street here, Miss Ada Dunscomb, a middle-aged spinster, was found dead last night, the vic tim of starvation, according to the coroner’s verdict. Searchers found no food in the house. A physician called by S. Whitney Dunscomb, Jr., age sixty, whoi is the woman’s brother, found the woman on a couch in her room, the body being clad in rags. The Dunscomb residence has been known as the “House of Mystery," to the neighbors, for the past twelve years, when the family moved there. The blinds were always drawn. No servants were employed and no vis itors were seen at the mansion. Officials say taat the costly old furniture is falling to pioces from neglect, and dust has accumulated throughout the house apparently for yeairs.
