Thousands had poured into Kingstown regardless of the pelting rain, which luckily ceased about 5 o'clock, and they braved the cold winds and mud until midnight. The celebrations were confined to an illumination of the war vessels and to a few fireworks here and there. A shining shamrock stood out against the blackness of Dublin bay, and from the jackies clustered on the decks of the squadron came strains of "God Save the Queen," which were taken up with will by the patient crowd on shore and when "Soldiers of the Queen" floated across the quiet water the spectators on Kingstown pier joined in with equal fervor. Although all political conditions are represented In Kingstown there was no attempt at a counter demonstration.

PRIMITIVE BAPTIST QUARREL. Cunt-IIelp-Its" and "Can-Hrlp-It" Claim a Church Property. Ilarrlsburg, Ills., April 5. Several weeks ago the members of the Primi tive Baptist church in Brushy town ship, ten miles west of this city, ono of the largest and oldest congregations in Saline count y, quarreled and divid ed. One faction, which held the old doctrine of predestination and foreor- dination, was denominated the "can't help its," while tiie other was called the can help its." Each side elected of ficers and both engaged ministers to teach the respective doctrines. Both claimed the sole right to the use of the church edifice, a structure which cost about $.'5,000, and each secured separate locks with which to fasten the doors. As a result neither faction has been able to hold services therein. Sunday morning the "can help its" marched to the church, under the lead ership of Jerry Bonds, smashed the locks, and held services until noon, the "can't help its." under the leadership of Eider Calvin, standing solemnly outside until they had concluded, when, as the "can help its" marched ou'. of one door they marched in at an other, retaining possession all after noon. During Sunday night the edifice burned to the ground. The "enn't help its." believing that the building was foreordained to burn, are recon ciled to its destruction, some claiming that fire was sent from heaven to de stroy the building, and thus end the dispute.
