(Special Correspondence to the Press.) Lay-ton, June 16. The Children'! Day exercises at Bevans were held In the Cha pel last Sunday evening. The musio was as usual exceedingly good, the exorcises very entertaining, and the deooratlom In exoellent taste. That it Is an enjoyable event la shown by the crowded house that they always draw. Why "Honest John?" of the Gaaette should slur the Piiess and his friend who corresponds for it is a hard to oompre hend as It is why Judas should have be trayed the Savior. It is to be hoped that his reward will be as fully "meated" ont to him. Fish Warden Hendershot was on this side of the mountain last week, and; we learn that some one handed over a little cash money for the pleasure of monkeying with a quail's nest. The parrot story evidently hit the mark. Like the Solomon and Annanlas allusion It was rather too appropriate. "Sand Burr" flatters me when he says I "oan use It (the parrot story) as no one else can." No use reminding him of self evident truths four times a year, for they touch the spot close enough to be remembered eleven months sure. Well, well, now tune up the merry -go-round, and sell another bridge. Three beams, two mudsills, and a little stone laid for only 114.00. Somebody besides, the freeholder is making stacks of money now. H. yi. Montrose' "Major Miller" while turned out to pasture this morning play fully ran into a barbed wire fenoe. The result was numerous slight gashes,but are not thought to be of a serious nature. Mr. A. D. Brown's mun Geo. W. Van Sickle conferred a special favor on your correspondent last Saturday in giving a few hours of his valuable time to supervise the erection of a 40 foot "htoel monarch" pumping wind mill. By a sclentitlo ar rangement of tackle and derrick the tow er was in a maimer bodily lifted and set upon its feet. The apparatus belongs to Mr. Van Sickle and is Immensely power ful. With three or four men he can lift (he whole bent or plate of any building 3?3 J3 and set It In Its plaoe without the least danger to any one. It Is a great Improve ment ovnr the old method.

Potato bugs are more numerous then evor. No more fishing for shad. I know of a newspaper correspondent who never goes a mile from home, but what It Is published. Such little family matters are bosh. I understand the suit Wm. Relnohardt vs. Abe Castcrllne which was decided against the defendant by a Sandyston jury a week or so ago has been appealed to oourt. If it ever oomes to trial It will set tle the matter as to how much power town officers are Invested with. While I write it rains, and I hope It will keep on all day, we need it badly. N.

Hart well made a trip to Lack awaxen on Monday. XX New Phase sf an Old Question. We wish to call the attention of those In terested to the fact that while the church embrogllo was lnJpTogress at Layton, Pas tor C. W. Demlng claimed to have his na turalisation papers, and that the claim of those who wished him to clear up his oharaoter that he was an alien, and not a oltlsen of the United States was therefore false. His friends claimed upon his repre sentations to believe thst he did actually hnve-thcmv To some who doubted, the pastor said he would show the papers be fore going to another charge, but he did not. Last week papers were received from him, by one of his friends, who peddled them around and showing them as Dem lngs naturalisation papers. . They were of course shown only to the Dominies friends who at once gave out that the great point was settled, that the Pastor did have his papers as he had claimed, because they had seen them with their own eyes this time, and not the Pastor's as before. But the gentleman who had charged that the Pas tor was an alien and not acltlsen, early In the controversy, knew that It oould not be possible for he did not have them last fall, and no opportunity had been offered by the oourt of naturalization since that time. Being therefore Interested In know ing the truth he asked to see the so called naturalization papers. As expected It was found to be only declaration of his Inten tion to become an American citizen at some future time. Probably when the na turalization oourt again sits previous to the fall election, and notice of whloh Is al ways given In the oounty papers as every one well knows. Since this exposure of Pastor Demtngs duplicity It hasoome to light that two of his friends who claimed to have great faith In all his statements went to Newton months ago to see if there was any record that be had his papers. They found nothing but the evidence that they had been made fools of. They kept their disappointment 4 profound secret and the matter had not become generaly known until very recently. If these men were honest ooochers after truth why should they seek to oonoeal the fact that the Pas tor had deceived his friends, and themsel ves as welir What measure of man Is It who will He to and dooelve his friends and what should those friends think of htm af ter being thus deoelved t It really looks as If the pastor had taken some people to be fools and had not got far astray In his es timate. His campaign Was carried out on this line the whole time be was here, and the people should now begin to realize what the simplest intelligence should have plainly seen long ago, that they were being made tools of by an alien, a designing hy pocrite, who It Is only too evident had no respect for his friends, nor htmslf as a minister of the gospel. As someone re marked, kittens and puppies are nine days In getting their eyes open, and some peo ple seem likely to be nine years in arriv ing at the same desirable condition. H.

CLARA BARTON'S WORK. She Writes That the Turk Have Not InUr- frrrd with Hrr. Colonel 8. W. Hill, of Allegheny, received June 12, from Miss Clnra Barton a hitter dated Constantino ple, May 21. Bho says : "Our work is heavy and hard, but useful . life saving and comfort giving. We have gathered physicians where we could got them and with medicines and nourishing food have brought this trouble nearly to an end. "Our work is the getting of some crops to growing that they may be able to help themselves before anoth er winter sets in. We are giving them grain, seeds, tools, cattle and lumber to repair the ruin of the houses that were burnt. 'I remember that Johnstown seemed to us, at the time like a large relief work, but it seems very small in comparison with this.

'I beg to correct any reports you may have heard of obstructions or interference by the government here all of which are mistakes, not to say falsehoods."'

The k nzarin Bilile, published more than four hundred years ago, waa full of errors. In an edition published two hundred years later the word "not" was omitted from the seventh cominnndment, from which error the book received the name of the "Adulterous Bible." In the printed directions for conducting Catholic services apiwnred the lino, "Here the priest will take off his culotte. The word calot te means an ecclesiastical cap or mitre. Cu lotte means, in broad Baxon.a man's underclothes. A blunder equally scandalous was made in a review of a historical work as follows : "It Was well understood what were the plans of the oposition after the queen s chemise. i or "chemise read "demise." The Rev. Dr. Todd was given some rulics to present to a museum. In S resenting them he alluded to "the ves of the saints," The remarks when published alluded to the "lies of the saints," which so enraged the giver that he wrote to Dr. Todd and demanded their return. At a larsre public demonstration In England a popular and prominent man arose to spenk and wus greeted with enthusiastic cheering and shouts. In Hpe-aking of it the news paper said : 'The vast concour.se rent the air with their snouts."
