Other News nnd Personal Notes.
The Dudley Street Haptlst chuich Is
again without a pastor, Hev. J. L.
Kreamer pleaching his farewell ssi
mon there last night. Among other
things he said that one ot tho great
drawbacks to tho upbuilding of tho
Cliilstlan tellglon Is the man who sub
scribes a certain sum for church sup
port and after two or three months de
cides that ho will not pay any more
while that pieacher Is there.
Ho said that many present would
have to mend their ways If they did
not wish to spend eternity with tho
damned In hell. He wns glad to bo ablo
to say that ho sooke the truth at nil
times, although It might not be a
plea-ant tnsk, He said he stood before
them not as a pleascr of men, but ns
one trying to please the Lord.
When it becomes necessaiy for u
pieacher to pieach to please his con
gregation ho said ho should leave the
pulpit.
Hev. Mi. Kreamei' would have com
pleted his tlrst year's pristorato on Feb.'

the hoaitH of many of our townspeople
during his shot t stay who will bo sorry

ramily of Dr. John L. Wentz Faiily

people can be t'll.en c.s a sample of
wliat may happen lo any lesiilent We'll
bltsied with this win Id's goods It must
be confessed theie Is giound for thD
suspicion.
Tor Instance, the fainll.v of Dr. John
I. Wentz ciilet tains opinions to the
above efhet. which aie icasonalily
Hi m. Foi mveia! days they have hud
detectives pinctlcallv tesident in their
house on .Madison avenue. Dr. Venu
was aii'-ent for a foi might, mil no
sooner did he leave homo than domon
siiatlons began to oi cur to Indie it
that suspicious peu-ouages weio psr-le-etlN
u w aie of his- movements and
the hunlts of the family
Men iippeaied at the outei door,
mulling all possible pieiexts with the
nppaicnt design of getting o good
view of tlie Intel lor. Sometimes they
wanted woik and sometimes they
handed In letleis appealing for aid.
These i licumstniiies weie not so
stuitigo lu thenihelvi s weio It not for
the tne-t that they frequently conned
lalo nt night, whllo ut othor times
attempts weie made to forcibly eu
t'jr the liouse Finally iho family be
litmc thoioiighly ulnimed and sought
piotectlou of the police.
II was noticed that tlie liltruder
kept tab on tho movements of the
oliiceis nnd never apcpiioil unless tho
litter hnd tenipotatlly dep.it ted. AVhat
caused i onstei nation In the fninllv
was tliat it soon became ijppiiieut that
they had knowledge- of telegrams
which weie i ec el veil and sent. On olio
occasion, tor instaiiie, a guest In th
Imus-e hud telegiaphed to a filend lu
another town i-ennullng the eliunge of
dato tor u i. ill which ho was to make,
nnd what wus the tenor ol .Mis.
Vcnli8 on the' following dnv lo hnvo
n mini ling llm bell and ask for the
gentleman to whom tho telcguun had
been sent and leave n l Iter begging
him tui weiik. Of coiuse, the i.ciitl;
miiu was not theie, and as ho Is u
lawyet, would sciucely bo expected to
llnd enitiioynient for the iippllcnt't,
who evidently used his naino as a pre
test for getting lino the house unci tor
dlseoveilng Nvhethci nuy men woie ut
home.
One of tho suspicious diameters pi in
tended to bo n bell boy from tho Man
hattan Hotel In New Yoik nud suld
thut ho nvub Htiniided on the way
fiom Aiknnsns Hot Spilngs nnd that
ns ho know Dr. Wentz veiy will
thought he might iccolvo help fiom
him. The doctor, on hla return, stated
that tho perfou tinsvvering tho de
scription Nvns utterly unknown to him.
On Wednesday night the officers
weio obliged to ?taNc the house for
a short time nnd, knowing this, n
friend of tho family had been usked
lo remain. Ho came In from the rear
entrance nnd v.ns apparently unob
eivcd by the ciooks, for no sooner
had the detectives gont than nn at
tempt was made to enter tho dining
room windows. Tho family, with the
exception of the friend, hnd retired,
and ho sat In tho library with tho
light turned low. When ho heard tho
noise made by the burglars, he made
n hasty movement toward the win
dow, which f tightened them away, as
they were evidently unprepared to
find nnyonc watching.
So swift were they that before ho
could nre after them, they had van
ished nnd the orders on their return
wero unable to trace them.
Hy this time, Dr. Wrntz's family
had reached the verge of nervous pros
tiatlon bemuse of the persistence of
the ciooks. All soits of motives were
suggested and among them kidnap
ping the little chlldicn was not tho
lcait. The doctor leturnedi on Thurs
day, since when there- has been n ces
sation of hostilities on the part of tho
enemy. In Justice to the local olllccrs,
who were detailed to act as detectives.
Dr. Went nnd his family feel that
they left no effort undone to catch
the Intruders.
They weto faithful and observant,
and mado every attempt posslblo to
put a speedy end to tho annoyance
thus occasioned. Tlv two men who
weio most froemently seen about the
premises me described as being nn
elderly weli-diossed man, and a young
fellow wearing a slouch hit.
