RIVERS OVERFLOW, r^
RIVERS OVERFLOW, r HOUSES SUBMERGED RAILWAYTRAFFIC SUSPENDED Great Damage in the Rhondda. EXCITING RESCUE SCENES. The rivers, swollen by the torrential rains of yesterday, falling upon a country already soaked by previous days of down- pour, are out in South Wales, and reports, especially from the mining valleys, indicate extensive damage, wit-h many thrilling incidents. Families have been held up in their houses for many hours, and the task of rescuing them has been hazardous in the extreme. Up to the time of writing no loss of life has been reported. RESCUES FROM WINDOWS Exciting Scenes in the Rhondda Close upon a quarter of a oentury has elapsed since the great Rhondda was visited by a flood of euch magniture as that which las briefly reported in last night's Evening Express") occurred on Friday. The junction of the Rivørs Rhondda and Taff just below Pontypridd indicated with almost terrifying effect the rush of water, Several houses near the bridge being inun- dated. A worse position was met with near Trehafod, where whole streets were eeen under water. Policfescrgeant Lucas, who had a busy and uncomfortable time, told our reporter that the river bank was submerged at about 11.30 a.m., and in a short space of time Lewis- street and Wayne-street showed a depth of 7ft. to 8ft. of water. Together with Coun- cillor Flemings and Mr. David Williams (milk- vendor), Hcpkinstown, who gave the use of his cart, the police-sergeant put in valuable jesoue work. There were a few bed-ridden cases, and these were carefully handled. In leas than an hour the ill-fated buildings were submerged in water to the extent of eight feet, which will mean a terrible lo68 to the occupants in damage to household pro- Berty. At Dinas what are known as "The Cellars" were inundated to a depth of about 10ft., and splendid rescue work was put in by Police-sergeant Morris (Porth), who got people out through the windows of the upper storey. TREHAK>D DISTRICT TO-DAY. The ram ceased, ami ili-e heavy floods abated in the Treliafod district early to day, and all the occupants of the inundated houses who had flnade good their escape from the bedm--m vindows YeFter.&ay aJternocu returned to their homes. The houses, how- ever, were in a pitiable condition. Water an,i mud covered the ground floor to the depth of a few inches and aU the occupants had a busy and arduous task in clearing the deposits of the flood, which hod caused considerable aajnage. A house in a gar- den near the Treliafod bridge was swept away completely A Moving Mountainside OoiltSiderable anxiety has been felt at Pentre in consequence of the mountainside having boon seen to shift. It will be remembered that some time ago a subsidence of the mountain occurred, resulting in the demolition of a. few cottages and the death of a small boy, who was smothered in his bed. Since then the slip hae been watched with. considerable trepidation. As the result of the rainstorm the mountainside has shifted, and the inmates of the houses of what is known as Napoleon-terrace had to clear out to the number of 200, together with their effects. They had to seek accom- modation for the night amongst neighbours. At Treherbert a culvert has burst, and the water, rushing to the railway station, rose to such a height that all railway traffic was delayed. Considerable delay has also been caused on the Rhondda and Swansea Bay in consequence of the floods. At Treorky the low-lying lands abutting on the Rbondda River are completely sub- merged. Three of four feet of water is to be seen in the main thoroughfare, and all traflio through Treorky is suspended. Damage at Ferndale Three families had to be rescued at Fern- dale, and here the heavy rains caused con- siderable damage to property lying on the banks of the river. The cellars of the houses in Taff-street, near the station, where oom- pletely flooded, and the occupants were busily engaged in removing their furniture, the water in many of the houses reaching to a height of over 2ft. A portion of the Taff Vale Railway siding has also been washed away, and the river in its course lower down the valley has undermined and carried with it large portions of the refuse tips along its bank. THE AFAN IN FLOOD Great Apprehension at Aberavon After about twenty h<? continuous rain ? River Man, "?? ru^ ? A1. raIn to port Talbot. a?ain ro?e to a tremeJo™ height on Fnday. It will b remembered that a fortnight ago the flooding of this river caused havoc at Aberavon, and rendered many families almost destitute. On Thurs- day night there was a constant downpour of rain, and this was continued on Friday. The corporation officials, realising the danger, soon got to work, and under the direction of Mr. J. Roderick (surveyor) barri- cades were erected at the top of Green Park- street, where the last flood caused such havoc. At the same time the inhahitants ot Green Park-street and Water-street locked their doors and left their homes for a more secure shelter. Everywhere one could see the people standing on their doorsteps or the street corners awaiting events, and every. where preparations were made for the worst. Fortunately, however, before the tide was full the rain ceased a little, and the flood decreased. Towards seven o'clock the floods subsided, and the danger was passed, and many families returned to their homes. Hundreds of people visited the neighbourhood of Green Park-street in the expectation of seeing a repetition of the floods of a fortnight since. At Aberavon Railway Station ou Friday night there were 2ft. of water between the rlatforms. Traffic on the South Wales Mineral Railway and the Port Talbot Rail- way was stopped owing to the damage done by floods. A bridge near the Whitworth Collieries, on the first-named railway, has been swept away. Floods at Resolven. The heavy rainfall of Thursday caused the rising of the Clydach Brook, Resolven, to such an ertent that it overflowed its banks and deposited hundreds of tons of debris on the roadway near Tanyrhiw Bridge. The bridge at this point became blocked, caus- ing the water to take a new channel, even- tually finding a way to the Great Western Railway, causing delay to the train service. The rail motor train due at Resolven at 2.7 was held up for a.n hour and a half in oon- ooquence. At Taj bach the River Ffrwydwyilt also rose to an alarming height, bnt the banks were onjy flooded PA the Fort Talbot Park, and there was JÃO da-maee such, as wu caused a. I fortnight ago. Many of the inhabitants, r however. had left their homes. Alarming Incidents at Glyncorrwg I A message from Glyncorrwg stated that ffour house? had been swept away at Cwmcas. Fortunately, 'the inhabitants had been warned in time, and were removed in safety. All of them, however, were not able to save their belongings, and the furniture in the houses occupied by Frank Goodwin and Frederick John Jones was washed from the houses and carried down the River Corrwg. Residents in the village readily came to the assistance of the homeless, and the distress committee, formed on the occasion of the disastrous floods a fortnight ago, supplied food, clothing, and other things necessary to relieve the immediate distress. Great damage was done in the Llynfi, Ogmore. and Garw Valleys. About 30 yards of the Port Talbot Railway was also washed away. I GALE IN THE CHANNEL. A strong south-westerly gale raged in the Bristol Channel on Thursday night and the whole of Friday, but comparatively little damage to shipping was reported in the neighbourhood of Cardiff. The steamship Cymrian damaged her stern through col- lision with the entrance wall, and had to dry dock. The sea wall at Porthcawl, which hoe just been repaired -at great ooet, has again Deen seriously damaged by heavy seas. IMPRISONED IN SIGNAL-BOX It is only about three weeks ago that the Aberdare Valley was the scetne of an exceptional flood, but that of yesterday was infinitely more terrific. The oldest inhabi- tants characterised the rain as the most torrential withiu their memory. The force of the water in the River Cynon was tremendous. Near the Commercial Bridge, Aberdare, the water was almost level with the parapet; but it was in and around Aberaman that the flood wrought the greatest havoc. The last train to leave the Taff Vale Railway Station at Aberdare and to run direct to Cardiff was at 2.52 in the afternoon. From that time throughout the night traffic was at a com- plete standstill between Aberaman and Mountain Ash, and passengers bound for a point beyond Mountain Ash towards Aber- dare had to fall back upon the Great Wes- tern Railway, by which line they continued their journey. The meadows at Cwmbach were like a huge reservoir, and a signal-box at the Lletty Bhenkin crossing was so surrounded that the man in charge was imprisoned, together with some platelayers who had sought shel- ter there. The situation became so serious that steps had to be taken for the safety of the men, and after great difficulty a trolley was conveyed to the place and the men were thus removed. I Malls Taken by Cart. I The postmaster of Aberdare acted with commendable resource. In order to cope with the emergency, the mails were, for the first time during the iast nine years, con- veyed in a cart as far as Mountain Ash, where they were entrained. The heavy rainfall ceased about midnight and the water no the meadows at Aberaman quickly subsided. It wae found that the permanent way on the Taff Vaie Railway ha,d been considerably damaged, the ballast being washed away. Platelayers were set to work, however and the damage was quickly remedied. Rain fell continuously at Merthyr through- out. Friday, and the River Taff was .-o swollen that in the evening hundreds of people congregated on and about the Iron Bridge to see the paging flood. I Uabby Drives Into Rfver. Last night a cabman named W. Coventry, employed by the Walnut Tree Hotel, Aber- avon, was engaged to drive a sailor to Port Talbot docks. He took the Taibach route, but found the river Ffrwydwyltt, which crosses the road to the dock. in flood. The driver mistook the bridge over the river, and drove right into the bed of the river, the horse beiug partly under the bridge. For a time the cabby and his fare were in great danger of being drowned, but fortunately they managed to scramble from their peril- ous positon. Help was secured, and by cut- ing the harness the horse was released and rescued. The cab was also saed. I Phenomenal Rainfall. I It may be mentioned that from October 1 up to now not less than lOjin. of rain has been registered, which is quite unprecedented in the Rhondda. The River Rhondda has risen higher than ever before on record. GALE CASUALTIES. I Late last night, the Crosby lightship in the Mersey Estuary was sunk by collision. The crew were saved. Another lightship was sent to take up the station. During the gale in the North Sea yesterday the Admiralty mooring lighter 81 being towed to Dundee was lost, and one of her crew named Samuel Shepstone was drowned. I A TERRIBLE TORNADO. I MEMPHIS (Tennessee). Friday. Several persons have been killed and many injured and a number of towns and villages demolished by a tornado which swept through Western Tennessee yesterday even- ing.-Reut,er.
I BOMBS IN BARCELONA. I
I BOMBS IN BARCELONA. I A strict censorship is being exercised in Spain, particularly in the Baroelona, district, but from the meagre news which is coming through it appears that a recrudescence of anarohy is threatened as a sequel to the execution of Senor Ferrer. Several bombs have exploded in Barcelona, and people have been inj ured. A telegram to the Petite Parisien" from Barcelona announces that, besides the two bombs found in the Calle Boqueria and the Plaza Cncurella, three others burst in the Plaza Santa Ana, the Plaza Buen Suoeso, and the Qaile Loscuran respectively, and that six soldiers were injured. Another bomb burst in the street facing the. Episcopal Palace. A Central News message says that another bomb explosion occurred in the afternoon, three persons being injured. I Ferrer's Fortune. I PARIS. Friday. The amount of Senor Ferrer's private fortune is the subject of considerable specula- tion here. Nearly nine years ago, when he was earning a precarious livelihood t-y teaching Spanish in this capital, a rich pupil, Mdlle. Ernestine Meunier, espousing nis political ideals, presented him with a house in Paris, and, dying the same year, left him £ 40.000. How much of that money has since been spent in furthering his propaganda is not known, but it appears from inquiries that the Paris house is mortgaged to the extent of £ 18,000. On the other band, the publishing business in Barcelona is believed to have been exceedingly profitable, and those who were intimate with him say that Senor Ferrer, who was a capable man of business, was lucky in his investments, being well posted in financial matters. It is. indeed, stated he was on the point of starting for England on the eve of tho Barcelona troubles, but delayed his departure in order to study the movement of certain electricity shares, and it was this investigation which involved his ruin by detaining him in Barcelona.—Reuter PARIS, Friday. Two Paris newspapers having started sub- scriptions for Senor Ferrer's daughters, the younger, Senora Paz Ferrer, an actress, has addressed to M. Henri Rochefort, who initiated the movement, a letter in which she says, on behalf of her sister and herself, that they feel that they would be wronging their father's memory in accepting any such mark of sympathy. She adds: H« gave his life for his cause. We owe it to him to bear everything in his name. We will work-for our living, and whichever of as is the more fortunate will help the other."—Reuter. I Church Door Fired Rome, Friday.—A report was ciroulated this evening that three churches in Rome had been set on fire, but it proved to be unfounded. Some hooligans yesterday tried to burn the door of the little church of St. Jean des Genevois by pouring petrol over and then lighting it, but. the firemen quickly extin- guished the blase. The troops have all been withdrawn from the city, which is perfectly quiet. The strike which was proclaimed oeases at midnight. At Milan the evening passed quietly. Work will be resumed to- morrow.—Reuter. I Rioters Charged by Dogs. I Paris, Saturday.—-Following upon a, meet- ing held last night at the Elysee, Mont- martre, to protest against Ferrer's execu- tion, some fifteen hundred persons, mainly revolutionaries and roughs, endeavoured to demonstrate before the Ch-aroh of the Sacred Heart. The police interfered, and a fight ooc-ured. The police thereupon charged and sent a number of their trained police dogs against the rioters, who scattered in terror. Several arrest* were made. and a nmmber of people were aligtUiljuinjured.—-Central News. -1

THE CZARINA'S KITCHEN
THE CZARINA'S KITCHEN In spite of the simple tastes of both her husband and herself, the Czarina has the dis- tinction. says M.A.P. of having the most expensive kitchen in Europe.

NEWPORT EMPIRE I
NEWPORT EMPIRE I Joe O'Oorman is due at the Newport Empire. His tales, his songs, his natural wit and humour, have earned for him a reputa- tion seoond to none as the premier Irish humorist. In describing her stage experience Miss Lil Hawthorne, who also appears, said that she made her debut in London under, the direction of the late Charles Morton, who was familiarly known as the "Father" of the musiohallg, "My sisters and I enrtere-d the profession for a lark, Miss Hawthorn frankly admitted, and Mr. Leslie Stuart wrote 'The Wilow Plate' for us. This proved a big success. We appeared together for about two years, and I then struck out a line for myself. I might add that I have never had cause to regret it." One of her greatest successe-s is the dialogue between a stuttering boy and a lisping girl, which was specially written by an American author. The dusky comedy queen.

"CHANGEABLE EYES"
"CHANGEABLE EYES" I Fruiterer's Widow Sues a Doctor for Breach. THE COLOUR OF HER HAIR Amusing Questions Asked by I Counsel Humours of breach of promise and the sLedge-hamimer methods el counsel were illustrated at New Y-urk yesterday (E-ays the Daily Telgr:iph"). when bignora Cartoga, a widow, tall and corpulent, states one account, sue:! Mr. Walter Tieiiry. a doctor. for £ 2,000 damages. Signora Cartoga is the widow of a fruiterer, a.nd in support, of her claim she produced a bimch of poetry, in which her rapturous suitor apostrophised her as "Hail, my bird. shine on oh! stars; sing oil, my bird." Plaintiff's counsel said such poetry coming from a Harvard graduate was bad enotigh to warrant substantial dam- ages, and to anybody less ^susceptible than his client, who was not strong oil English, it would have caused intense intellectual suffering. One of the effusions let loose by Mr. Henry read as follows:- S1, is a girl with changeable eyes, Just- RS clear as the blue of The skies. "When she is willing, they look prettv. Still they look so nice. is the girl with the changeable eyes, hen she is angry the fire from them flies; But when she is rniili An hour you're teiinfiiA' In Par-a-dise. Signora's Story ) Signora '8 Story Signora Cartoga, all smiles, was cross- examined. She said she was an actress awaiting an engaement. Didn't you go to the Casino with the defendant one day after he attended your sister?" Yes." And didn't he blow in (AmeficaniEm for spend) about 10 dollars?" I don't know how much it was." Didn t you then, over the tea cups, make a date to meet him again?" "I object to the teh. cups," remarked the court. "Well," asked the.cross-examiner, "Didn t you make an engagemen tto meet him while at the table?" Yes." Are you the lady addressed as 'Change- able Eyes'?" Yes." Speaking of changeable eyes," inquired i counsel suddenly, "when did you first change the colour of your hair?" I never changed it," responded the plain- tiff, as she brushed back an auburn strand. Do you mean to say your hair is now the same colour as when you first met the doc- tor ?" I do." You were a chorus girl?" "I was." "You said you played a character part in one play?" "I did." What part was it?" "The part of a slave" "There were other slaves?" Yes." How many lines did you have in this character part?" "About six words." "Can you recall them?" No, I've clean forgot them." Defendant's counsel declared that it was clearly a case for exemplary damages, and the jury retired to consider their verdict.

THE FLYING MEN.1 ——. )
THE FLYING MEN. 1 —— ) MISHAP TO CODY, j Machine Wrecked. I I ALARMING ACCIDENT AT DONCASTER. There was an early, if moderate flight, j at Doncaster ihis morning, and in wea- j ther which made a beautiful contrast to that of yesterday. Almost before anyone realised what was happening, the hour being about nine o'clock, and prior to the openmg of the programme, M. De La Grange dashed out of his shed on his Bleriot monoplane. The tall, lithe Frenchman maintained a fine seat as the machine first rushed over the ground. the wheels now and again rising from the turf as the expanded wings cut the breeze. He was trying the ground, and did not attempt to accomplish an ascent, though for several hundred yards the machine lilted to the extent ox half-a-dozen feet. Tnen he same back again to the shed as gracefully as a bird, and bringing the monoplane up opposite her house. With all the nicety of a well-steered motor-car. On alighting, the aviator, speaking in French, expressed to our special correspondent his satisfaction with his trial trip, which is regarded as a favour- able augury for a fine day's sport. Col. Cody's Flight A few minutes before ten o'clock Colonel Cody made a flight. There were but few people on the ground, and the trip was in the nature of a trial. The huge plane left the shed without the slightest hitch, and, with the engine going full speed, skimmed across the ground for 100 yards with the planes inclined upwards. The machine left the ground, and rose to a height of several feet, the night extending over 300 yards, at the end of which The Colonel brought his quaint cra.ft to the ground easily and smoothly. The aviator was loudly chered for his per- formance. It transpires that M. De La Grange's "Bleriot" was not piloted by himself tlhis morning. He has some pu.pils here, and the seat of his car was occupied by Son, L<- BlOll. another competitor, and it was he 2nd not Mon. De La Grange who spoke favoura.bly of the conditions. The engine requires a little touching up, and he will enter a com- petition aboijt noon. Almost immediately after Colonel Cody had finished his flight, li. Sommers' "Farman" plane was brought^ out, with the engines working smoothly; and well. The machine rose and execut-ed a flight of 250 yards. about 8ft. to 10ft. from the ground. Shortly after- wards a seoond flight of a similar length was performed. A little later Mon. De La Grange went out on M. Pievot's "Bleriot." He made a fine flight across the common and back, thus going with the wind and against it. When he softly came to earth the spectators gave a well-deserved cheer. Flying Conditions. I The flying men agree pretty well on this report:— The wind at present is rather puffy, and has a tendency to make the machines roll. We expect boetter flying conditions in an hour or so. Up to now there have been no competitions, only trial spins, but the judgcs have been appointed for the day. They are Cap-tain Disley Watt (Leicestershire Regiment) and Mr. Le Quex, the well-known novelist, who takes a keen interest in aviation. Accident to Col. Cody. MACHINE WRECKED IN TURNING A I CORNER. I At eleven o'clock Colonel Oody made a rapid j flight across the course. As he rose he was watched with breathless interest. Then when lie had got right to the opposite side ctf the oomman his machine was seen to drop. He was two miles from the starting point. Some spectators say he toppled over. Other machines flew off to the scene. He appears to have fallen into a ditch. A later message gives particulars of Colonel Cody's accident. Colonel Oody made a remarkable good fly at 10.45. He had com, pletely circled the ground, flying the g-reater part of the way at a good height. When he had been in the air about 900 yards, and was turning the oorner J at a great speed, the front wheel of the machine touched the soft ground. The result was that the machine turned completely over on its side. The colonel, who was sitt-inrg at the steering wheel, was thrown against the machinery. He managed to crawl out practically unhurt-, save for a cut on the face, which was bleed- ing. The plane, however, presented a woe- begone appearanoe. The engine and planes were practically intact, but mixed beside was a huge jumble of broken bamboo rods and straggling and entangled wires. It is expected that some time must elapse ere the machine can be brought up to flying pitch. Universal sympathy is felt with the colonel by the public assembled here. who all recognise in him a plucky and ardent sportsman. Colonel Cody's shattered biplane has been buroght home by means of a motor-car. Standing by the djsmembred machine the colonel, with a. nasty cut. surroundpd by dry blood, on his face, submitted to an in- terview. He said:- "Let it be made clear, gentlemen, that I was not flying when this accident occurred. Meeting a side wind at a. sharp turn, I went ) to ground meaning to run 200 yards and then fly again when I had run 150 yards. How- ever, my front wheel sunk into a hole or into the soft earth and arrested the progress of the biplane, which then tippled over." "When will you be ready to fly again?" he was asked. "Well." he replied, "I have got some dupli cates of my broken gear at Aldershot, and I am sending for them, and I hope to be up again Monday or Tuesday." The Competitions I It has now G2.50) been decided to enter almost immediately upon the competitions. All trial trips are suspended. The Erst c.om? petitive event is thus described:- A Cup will be awarded to the aviator who shall accomplish two circuits of the course in the best time. This is fixed for two o'clock, prior to which there will be a luncheon lull. Trials at Newmaaket. I A rumour is current at Newmarket that, I providing the permission of the Jockey Club can be obtained, aviation trials, and later an aviation meeting are likely to be held on Newmarket Heath.

Mr. Herbert said *Jhc c?.r« r-?;ti>d principally on the evid-er.-c-e of the first wit-Tiese, narjed Annie Evans, who on the nigist in au-estion "was passing the prisoner's ibouFe and heard .-creams which caused her to enter.

Annie Evans, la, Taff-street, who seemed to be in a week state of health, and spoke in lew accents, bore out this statement. "I think," she s:id, "that he dropped the baby." The Recorder: Do you think he did it pur- potelyr—No, I don't think so. Have you ever said the child was thrown, down the stairs?—I bes your pardon— You know what I said. Have you ever made the statement that the child wa.s thrown down?—Yes-the first day when the l>olire came, and I was that frightened that I did not know what I was saying. Witness went on to say tljai having- picked np the child and handed it to a friend, she became unconscious. By Mr. Wilfred Lewis Prisoner had been drinking, and I think he was then some- what under the influence of drink. The Eeoorilcr: Why did you go upstairs?— I went upstairs to take the baby because Mrs. Barber screamed. 1 was a-;raid he would drop the baby because h& had drink in him. Police-constable William Gooding de<r>os £ xi that accused, when charged and arretted, replied: "I was in drink at the time." Dr. John Wallace (Cardiff Infirrrmry 1 said the child had a fracture on the vault of the skull. It had no other injuries, a.nd when discharged wais only suffering- from whooping cough.

Payment of Bonuses.
Payment of Bonuses. tVSEETING OF THE WELSH COAL BOARD Thrre was a very lengthy agenda to dis- posed of to-day at the meeting of the Con- ciliation Board for the Welsh Coa! Trade held at the Engineers' Institute, Cardiff. The items included a large number of disputes at several collieries, but, though some of these had reference to questions of general importance, such as payment of bonuses and proposed 1terations in methods of working, it was not anticipated that the wider aspects of these questions would be di.-<cusr,ed with a view to coming to a general understanding upon the broad issues involved. Efforts, however, were made to come to an agreement upon individual cases, several of which were referred for settlement to the respective committees. Mr. W. J. He 11 pell presidEXi over the owners' side and .Miibon, M.P., on the workmen's side. l'p to luncheon time nothing definite had been done.
Christian Science -
Christian Science SQUABBLE BETWEEN AMERICAN LADIES The squabble between Mrs. Eddy, the founder of the Christian Scientist Church, and Mrs. Stet&on, formerly head of the church in New York and since deposed, still continues. One may assume that Christian Science greatly interests many Americans, because on that hypothesis alone can one explain the amount of space devoted to the controversy by the leading newspapers. Mrs. tjtetson took a high hand when reproved for lack of discipline, wires the »w York correspondent of the Daily Telegraph," and replied that Mrs. Eddy was being bossed by a little coterie which worked the Church for their own benefit. This ie a repetition of the charge made in the "World" newspaper months ago by certain dis- affected persons, and never proved. Several millions of Christian Scientists rejected the idea as preposterous, while admitting that the venerable age of Mrs. Eddy compelled her to delegate many duties to assistants, but not, as suggested, to ignorant coachmen or footmen. To use an American colloquialism, the charge against Mrs. Stetson is that she "wants to be the whole show" in Christian Science, and Mrs. Eddy, solicitous for her position as supreme head, will not tolerate such rivalry. Mrs. Stetson ba6 supporters here who endorse her complaint about the aforesaid coterie, but they are not powerful enough to run a church in New York on their own account. Letters which have passed between Mrs. Eddy and Mrs. StPtson were published on Friday, in which Mrs. Eddy was addressed as "Dear and venerable teacher," and Mrs. Stetson as "My desr student." One of Mrcõ. Eddy's letters reads: "My dear Student,— Awake and arise from this temptation pro- duced by animal magnetism upon yourself. allowing your students to defy you and me. Treat yourself for it, and get your students to help you to rise out of it. It will be your destruction if you don't do this. Answer this letter immediaiely." Despite Mrs. Stetson's "obsession," as it is called. the first and second leaders of the New York Church remain faithful and loyal to the Mother Church.
