Placed in Same Class aa Tom Paine and Other A gnomics by Ills Defam era Candidate and Ills Pastor Daily Besieged wkh Letters Many of Them Abusive. Washington, July 29. "Unitarians teach today what the deists, such as Tom Paine, taught a century ag Unitarians are no more Christian than are agnostics. Thousands of people throughout the country under stand this, and they will no more vote for Judge Taft, who is an Unitarian, than they would have voted for Col. Ingersoll." This statement privately made by the rector of one of Washington's leading churches, reflects sentiments that are now being heard on every side. The religion of Judge Taft prom ises to become a campaign issue of considerable magnitude. The Rev. U. G. B. Pierce, pastor of the Unitarian church of which Judge Taft is a mem ber, has received hundreds of letters inquiring about the candidate's views on spiritual matters. Judge Taft, too, daliy receives many communications of this character, and some of them are of an abusive character. Some of Mr. Taft's friends are in clined to be alarmed by these attacks, which are constantly becoming more frequent. Reports have been received here that evangelists In various parts of the country have denounced Taft for his religious views and urged their hearers. not to vote for him. A ma Jority of Washington politicians, how ever,- refuse to consider these at tacks seriously. They point out that Jefferson, Adams, Lincoln and Grant were all unorthodox in their religious views, but that attempts to defeat them on those grounds failed miser ably. Aa Historic Ben. Alt Souls' Unitarian church, of which Mr. Taft Is member. Is aa attractive but not Impressive looking structure. Ia Its steeple hangs aa historic bell. This was cast In 1822 by Paul Revere, the famous bell founder, whose midnight ride set all ew England In a blaze against the British. It was hung In its belfry aimost a century ago, and for mans years was the largest bell in the city, ana tne only bell of any size. It was used not only by the Unitarians, but by other denominations, and pealed out equally to call the people to holy day celebrations or church festivals or to warn the city of fire. Men famous in the history of the century have been members of this church and have attended divine ser vice mere, jonn u cainoun was a communicant; also Daniel Webster, John Qulncy Alams, John Morrill, John D. Long and George Bancroft, the historian. Rear Admiral Evans Is a member, as is the Rev. Edward Everett Hale, who frequently occupies the pulpit. Other co-members with Mr. Taft are Dr. Truman Abbe, Rep resentative Mann of Illinois, Alns worth R Spofford, former librarian of congress, and Representative John W. Weeks of Massachusetts. Taft's Pastor. Dr.' Pierce, the pastor, is a young man, a native of Providence, who was raised a Baptist. He went to school as a boy in Boston and took a post graduate course at Harvard. He was called to AH Souls' eight years ago and in that time has become one of the foremost pastors of the city. About the time he first entered the pulpit as a Baptist preacher he be gan reading Darwin and Huxley and readjusted his religious views to con form with the more advanced teach ings of science. Then he turned to the Unitarian church. So far as AH Souls' is concerned, it Is a practical church. Its members believe In doing practical things. Itsi charities are many. It maintains for one thing, annually, a visiting nurse, paying all expenses, and Is the only church'of any denomination In Wash ington which does this. Its member ship embraces some of the most pro gressive citizens of Washington, peo ple of culture and refinement On Its roll are those who have been previ ously MethodlBts, Baptists, Catholics, Presbyterians In fact all creeds are represented. As Dr. Pierce says, the Unitarian church does not ask a man his religion any more than It asks his politics. It Is a church of freedom. 10 MAY FORI NEXT CHI FEW CHANGES IP TAFT IS ELECTED. Hoot Will Stay as Long as Ho Desires Meyer Will He Advanced Luke Wright Will Stay aa Well as Gar field and Wlln Bonaparte Would Go Itryuii Cabinet More Interest lug. Washington, July 29. Washington political wiseacres are already busily engaged In arranging cabinets for Judge Taft and Colonel Bryan. Scores of prognostications are being made of the prohnblo line-up and batting order of the distinguished men who will be called to act as official advis ers of tho next occupant of the White House. In ease of the election of Taft, it is generally agreed that there will be few vital changes. Elllhu Root Is Is slated to retain the state portfolio as long as he wants it, provided, of course, that the republicans continue In control. George von L. Meyer, postmaster general In Roosevelt's cabinet, will likely be advanced to the trensury secretaryship. General Luke Wright is certain to remain ns head of the war department under the Taft regime. Frank B. Kellogg, It is thought, will be selected to succeed Attorney General Bonaparte, while Frank H. Hitchcock will be awarded with the office of postmaster general. James Wilson, the perpetual secretary of agriculture, will not be disturbed, and James R. Garfield will continue as secretary of the Interior. Whether Metcalf will be retained as secretary of the navy and Straus as the secre tary of commerce and labor is a mat ter of disagreement, some of the wise acres declaring that they will have to make way for some of Taft's more In dustrious workers. A Bryan Cabinet. Doping out a Bryan cabinet Is, of course, more Interesting, since It al lows a wider latitude of choice and presents more elements of uncertain ty. At the head of the list as secre tary of stae most of the wise ones place Judson Harmon of Ohio (A few think that Judge George Gray of Del aware, would be chosen for this im portant portfolio, but this Is not con sidered probable by those acquainted with Just the degree of friendship ex isting between the Xebraskan and the Delaware Jurist. The Bryan cabinet, It is thought, would be largely com posed of westerners, with only two or three eastern and southern men In cluded. It Is likely, In the event that Bryan Is elected, that his cabinet will be substantially as follows: Secretary of state Judson Har mon, of Ohio. Secretary of the treasury John A Jchnson of Minnesota. Secretary of war George Turner, of Washington. Attorney General William J. Gay- nor, of New York. Postmaster general Henry D. Clayton, of Alabama. Secretary of the navy Theodore A Bell, of California. Secretary of the Interior Thomas M. Patterson, of Colorado. Secretary of agriculture Clark Howell, of Georgia. Secretary of commerce and labor John Mitchell, of Illinois. An English Turf Tragedy. naif au huu.'

Twenty-one young women of the Second Christian church Sunday school have gone on strike against the preacher, the Rev. Ralph Edward Alexander, and they will not return unless he allows their demands, says a St. Louis dispatch to the Chicago Tribune. "We shall never go back to the Sunday school, never, until the pastor shows a more lenient spirit In his dealing with our class," said Miss Rosalie Clark, one of the leaders in the mutiny, and the other girls volci her sentiments. "The pastor tells us he never will permit us to come back except upon his terms," continued Miss Clark. He Is willing to lose 21 young women from his Sunday school rather than be conciliatory. He has said so. "The pastor called us bullheads, and said the devil had broken loose In one of the Sunday school classes, meaning In our class, of course. That doesn't look nice, does it?" The 21 young women are members of the best families In the church and the Sunday school has been seriously crippled by their "walkout." Some of the girls use strong lan guage In denouncing the Rey. Mr. Alexander for what they term his high-handed and arbltray - manner with them. The whole membership of the church Is in a turmoil over tho mutiny, and each has taken Bides, one way or the other, some with the pas tor and some with the young women. ' The trouble began two years ago when the Rev. Mr. Alexander became pastor of the church, which Is at 11th and Tyler streets. It Is report ed that he said then there were too many cliques In the church, and these caused jealousy and weakened the in fluence of the church, and he would break up the cliques If he had to throw some people out by the neck.

Considerable difference of opinion ex ists with regard to a trustworthy rem edy for snake bites. Dr. Lauder Bran ton advocates the use of permanganate of potash applied Immediately. Mr. Greengrnss of North Arcot district, Madras, however, as the result of vari ous experiments states that acetic acid, even in the diluted form of vinegar, is an Important and effectual remedy, and it can be applied effectually as long as an hour or au hour and a half after the bite. Cases of recovery from snake bites have followed the applica tion of vinegar after such Intervals. An Incision must be made over the bite, as much of the poison as possible squeezed out. and then vinegar is to be injected. If the bite Is on a limb, a ligature must be placed above It Mr. Greengrass records twenty-nine cases of recovery from cobra bites, by such a use of vinegar. The one failure which occurred was due to the fact that no incision had been made over the bite. A . similar treatment is recommended for the stings of scorpions. London Standard. Powning Street. London. The greatest street In the world la one of. the smallest This Is Downing street a dark little alley in the west of London. Here Is the real center of the British empire, for It Is at 10 Downing street that the premier has his official residence. Ever since Rob ert Walpole was the prime minister, 200 years ago, the beads of the govern ment have made their homes In this "alley." American tourists usually go out of their way to gaze upon the dingy, almost repellent exterior of this lodge of diplomacy and national ambi tion, because Sir George Downing, who laid out the street and built the house therein, was of American ancestry, his mother belonging to the Wlnthrops of Massachusetts Bay Colony, and stands as the second graduate on the roster of Harvard college. After get ting an American education he went to England and, seizing opportunity when it offered.' became Oliver Cromwell's ambassador at The Hague. Exchange. Feeding the Stock. The victim of the following story, told in Mrs. Henry W. Cole's "A Lady's Tour Around Monte Rosa, was possessed of a keen sense of hu mor. Otherwise his dignity might have been ru filed by the unconscious revela tlon which came to his ears. In the course of Mrs. Cole's travels she met the Rev. Rolert Montgomery, the poet, who told her an Incident of his early career in the pulpit When he was first admitted to holy orders ho was appointed curate In a rural Scotch dis trict and lodged In the house of a small tenant farmer. Notwithstanding bis office of clergyman the family did not appear to hold their boarder In high veneration, for one day he heard the woman servant call out to her mistress: "Missis, shall I feed the pigs first or gle the mon his dinner?" An prratie Echo. The late Sir John Leng bad traveled In most quarters of the globe. On one occasion when visiting Spain he was asked at a certain spot by a traveling companion to test the powers of what was declared to be a wonderful echo. Sir John, slowly and deliberately, in rounded tones uttered the words, "Dun-dee Ad-ver-tl-ser," the name of the paper he owned. "Dundee Cou rier and Argus," the name of the oppo sition paper, came back as the echo! Sir John's friends bad played him a trick. Tea Drinking. Tea drinking was regarded as one of the feminine vices of a hundred years ago. The Female Spectator of that pe riod observes: "The tea table costs more to support than would maintain two children at nurse. It is the utter destruction of all economy, the bane of good housewifery and the source of idleness." London Mall.
