J'hoy assert that the methods iccently

which was built ever one hundred years ago ,

Mrs. Windsor Bates and Mrs. Sally Bates ,

and has been rcoogni7cd by many former
friends and acquaintances Mr. Bates said
that when the house was taken not n picture
of any kind was hanging lit the room , nor is
it a rcllection of any 0110 standing by. Ho
said it was the custom of his mother , when
attracted to the front of the house , to rush
up to this very window and'peer up and
down the road , exactly as the imago appears

Nr.w YOIIK , May IS. Mrs. Emma Knce-
shaw , a respectable and bard wet king
widow , was "ruled out" or expelled last
Sunday from the Chlttondcn , N. J. .
Methodist Episcopal church , of which
Key , Mr. Doollttlo Is pastor. Thu cus
tom of ruling out or publicly denounc
ing n member from the pulpit has long
been obsolete in the Methodist church , and
the act of Mr. Doolittlo has caused talk In the
village and subjected the pastor to sharp
criticism. The congregation and outsiders
scorn couvfncod that the chargw against Mrs.
ICnfeshaw nro groundless. For a number of
years Mrs. ICnccshaw has boon a member of
the church In good standing and was re
spected by the residents of the Ullage.
Several months ago W L Adams , ono of
the leaders of the church , proposed to Mrs.
ICneeshaw to open a bakery shop. She waste
to prepare the stock and ho was to fit up a
sto-o. Mrs , ICnoashaw agreed and the firm
rented a store on Springtluld avenue. Thu
baking was done by Mrs. Knceshaw at her
homo. Piospoilty followed the linn until a
few weeks ago , when Adams , it Is sold , informed -
formed his partner that she was not entitled
to one-half the profits , and that thereafter
her commission would only bo on shares.
Mrs. ICnccshaw promptly rofmod to accept
the situation , and the firm dissolved partner
ship. The widow bo < rnn business on her own
iccount and piospcrcd. Adams purchased
ills poods olsowhr-ro , Adams at last , angered
by his former partner's Miceess , It Is alleged ,
tutored a formal chi\rgo through the church
deacons to the effect that Mrs. ICnooshaw
was acting In an unchristian manner in try
ing to obtain his business. After half an
liour's consultation Mis. KncoMmw was com
manded to appear before the deacons , but she
refused to comply and was at once con
demned. Sunday , In pursuance of lilt in-
tr.uctlons , Pastor Doollttlo publicly "read
the widow out of the congregation. "
Indignation Is rife among the residents
ever Mr. Doollttlo's action , and they have
shown their disgust with the church by ral
lying to Mrs Ivuoeshaw The members of the
congregation have also sided with tholr perse
cuted sister , ni.d 0110 of the members said
yesterday that dining the coming week a
complaint would bo made by a doicu ladies of
the church against Mr. Adams.

t Undly ( teuton In tlio Cnrlc-
ton Stake Itncc.
Nnw YOHK , May 18.- The World snys the
result of the races for the Corloton stakes at
Gravcsendon Saturday , and the violation
of ono of the important rules of racing by
the trainer for J. A and A. H. Morris ,
caused so much dissatisfaction that the
boatd of control will undoubtedly bo forced
to pass upon the matter. AU tills ttoublo
was caused by the late declaration of
Trainer W.Midam Waldron that ho Intended
to win with Husscl in splto of the fact that
Ton-Ill or , a stable companion , was faster
mid heavilj backed by hundreds who sup
posed the race would bo on Its merits.
U'liile it is usual for most owners who have
two or moro horses to nnino the her o they
'
pioposoto win with , the general policy o'f
the Mortis stable is to lot the best lioiso
take the pii/o , ns was llliisttatcd In the con
test preceding the Kusstll Teiiillor race ,
when the Morris horses Oppiussor and
Laughing Water , finished llrst nnd second
after a hard JlnUli. That state of affairs was
satisfactory to the public , and thoi plunged
on Torrinor , but at the last moment Mr.
Waldron declated that lie would win with
Hu scll , thus bi caking one of the castcin
lules which sajs :
An owner raring two or moro hordes In uraco
limy ( In laic ton \ with one of tliutn nnd bitch
declaration must bo iniido at tin ; Hum of
ueluhlim' out and Is to bo Immeil lately posted
on thu notice board A JocKov i Idlng a lior-o
with which his ottupi has not doclnrcd to win
must on no account stop such IIOMO except In
fax in of the stable companion Inlioo behalf
Mild duclar.itlon to win has been made
The particular point made Is that an owner
ma\ name ono ot his horses t6 win or ho may
not , but if ho does ho must not only declare
nt the tlmo of weighing , but hn\o the notlco
posted , so that the betting public may not bo
misled In tills case Tcirilier could have gal
loped In , but the Jockey was compelled to fol
low Institictions and hold him back , tuns per
mitting Uusscli to go on nnd win , to the dis
gust of nearly every parson present. The
stable owners nio not betting men and no
word has been said that they bonollted in
any way by Russell's victory , but the book-
nmkeis did , and there nro no1 a few who said
that it was a piece of sharp play englneeied
by tliem The rule covering this matteron eas'-
ein tracks is wrong nnd unsatisfactory. Bet
ters have little or no protection and there is a
strong demand to amend it so it will compel
bookmakers to put hoiscs owned by one man
down us n single animal , as the rules adopted
by the American turf congress obliges the
bookmakers on the western tracks to do
Evcrv honest goer favors it. Put the horses
owned by ono person together in the books
nud thereby prevent any further scramble In
that direction.

Dentil ol' n Patient Wlio Had a Most
Peculiar Discabo.
Nrw YOIIK , May 18. Henry Welch , a
whlto man whoso skin had tunica black , and
whoso case had been watched with tbo gicat-
cst Interest by the physicians at the Presby
terian hospital where ho has boon smco Muy
0 , died at that institution ycstorday. Ono of
the hospital physicians had Just spoken to
him and had been answered in a perfectly n-
tioniil manner , without any evidence of im
pending death , and then had turned to the
next cot to speak to another patient. Half a
minute later the doctor happened to glance
at Welch and found that ho was dead.
Welch's case is ono of the most lomark-
able on record Ho was fifty years old and
was born in Iiclnnd of whlto parents. Thir
ty-fix o j oars ago ho came to America and ob
tained employment as a waiter. Fourteen
j cars ago ho ai rived iu Now York and mar-
liod. Ho hud four children , all of whom are
alive , but Ills vlfo died throe ye.irs ago.
About the Hist of the present joar Welch
beunn to have severe intermittent pains In
his side , which the physicians to whom ho
applied could not icllovo. Then ho com
menced to feel constantly lan
guid. Iu January his skin tinned
jellow as though from jaundice. This
continued until Welsh might easily have been
inistaKon for a quadroon. Six weeks later
he had the appearance of a mulatto. His
case was diagnosed by doctors ns hper -
thtophic cinhusis , or liver disease Ho en
tered the hospital May ( ! , and after that con
tinued to glow darker in color. When ho
died his ontno skin uas black.
His two little girls , who were at the hos
pital with their grandmother one hour after
their father's death , aio remarkably pretty
childien and whitens the offspring of any
whlto people. The dead man's little sons are
as white as their sisteis. The disease of
which Welch died was seated in the gall duct ,
which connects the gall bladder with the
ll\er , which in turn is supplied with the bile
neccssaiy for digestion. The gall duct is
very small and the passage tlnough the duct
of 'gall stones homotimes teais the walls of
the duct , causing great pain. The physicians
believe that in the piesent instinco the dis
ease had been unusually severe , owing to its
long standing. There are but two similar
cases iu the hospital records. Botn ended
fatally.

Much of this newspaper goasip has been got
ten up apparently for the sole purpose of us-
suillnc ono who is uo longer in n position to
defend herself of throwing dlit on a ptiro
soul a woman I and ridicule on a society , the
trucuatuioof which those gosslpors do not
seem to manifest the sllghtist knowledge.
Such pci-sous cortainlv do not possess tlio do-
slro of giving a somow hnt important account
of common events to the public.
A chaiactor like H. P. Blavatsky's ' was ,
with such decided qualities and force , taking
nn independent stand before the wet Id , as
she did , is bound to create opposition. As
far baclc ns history gives iis any rccoidvo
note that all such forces , nil such characters
did tno same. And ns Inversely us was the
strength independence and tnhoicnt force 01
the Individual , so has been tlio opposition.
Even if tbn lowest means of blackmail , da *
famatlou of character and 1 } Ing had to ho ro-
sortcd to for the sake of bosmearmg the
"messenger of truth"or for the purpose of
ridiculing nnd deriding lovers of truth , or
even tiuth Itself , often being attacked for i
higher reason than to cause the laughtotx
sncors of an Ignorant ciowd.
Madam Bl ivntsky must naturally have had
enemies , but to sco poisons held to bo In

courts of thu lann and forced to take buck

than e\er a Judas evinced.

Locis of truth need only investigate. Wo
do not expect our enemies to know us or to

The writings of H. P Blavatsky are before

those dlvlno principles promulgated ,

personage , Helen P. Blavatsky. Especially
in love nnd charity divine she was un
bounded-to friend and too , to ail alike , to all

Max the shadow of her mantle fall upon
the thousands of her children that humbly
