SOCIALISTIC MINISTER IS
OUSTED BY CONGREGATION
BELLINGHAM, Wash.? Because hel
has becomc Interested in the study of J
socialism, and because certain mem-j
hers of his flock accused him of j
.smoking a foul-smelling pipe, the Rev.
j Walter C. Jones, pastor of the Knox j
I Presbyterian church of tills city, has
been forced to resign his pulpit and a
new preacher will be named for the
I church.
A short time ago the Rev. Mr.
Jones delivered an address before the!
Ministerial association, telling of the j
wonderful growth of socialism in the
country and of the good the party
was accomplishing. The address was
published in the local papers and read
by members of the paster's flock. At
the first opportunity the congrega
tion asked the pastor to hand in his
resignation, which was done today,
and accepted.
The pastor defends his attitude on
socialism, and, in connection with the
charge that he smokes a pipe, he de
clares that he only indulges in the
nnbit when he is in his study room.
Rumors have also been circulated
that the pastor has been making love
to a fair lady member of his flock.
This the minister declares is untrue.
SLES BORN IN
ALASKAN SEA
Amid the most fearful rumblings,
explosions and eruptions, another is- 1
land was born to the Bogoslof group, 1
near I'nalaska, about March 10th. For
U n days prior to the island's poking
il>: peak above the water line the na
tives on the other islands within a
radius of 100 miles were aware that
the earth \vas in a most violent mood,
p.nd for days preceding the appearance
of the new land the craters on the
Uogoslofs, in the group northof Un.i
laska island, were belching fire and
throwing out ashes and sand.
Just what is the size of the new
island could not be learned. Capt. R.
'5. McKay, who has been master of
the Dora for the past year, and who
biings the news, says the natives
ceuld not be induced to approach
within many miles of it, merely re
turning and declaring that a new
ptak was visible, and was throwing'
c?".' vast quantities of steam. ? Seattle

Judge Keid has appointed John .1. 1
Hamilton private secretary and steno
grapher to the court. Hamilton was
formerly stenographer in the district I
attorney's office at Fairbanks.
