W. Sevrich, who crossed from s; Antwerp, of St. John, N. B., on the p Canadian Pacific steamer Mount tl Temple, has made a statement here c: concerning what was observed from n the Mount Temple at sea the Sun- si day night the Titanic went down.

Frank J. Norris Not Guilty of ^ Perjury Charge. rj Fort Worth, Tex., April 24.?A jury in the district court here to-day acquitted the Rev. J. Frank Norris, ? pastor of the First Baptist church and well known a.s a reformer, of the charge of perjury. The indictment lc was returned in connection with the investigation of certain anonymous U letters Dr. Norris received threaten- t* ing his life. The pastor has yet to face trial on an indictment charging *c arson, growing out of the burning s1 of the first Baptist church of Fort ^ Worth. It is probable the arson tl case will not be called for trial before late in May. P A series of sensational events cov- ri ering a period of . four months cul- ^ minated in the indictments against ** the pastor. w First, a small fire damaged the First Baptist church January 11. This is the fire which resulted in the arson charge against the Rev. Mr. Norris. An alleged attempt on the life nf the Rev. Mr. Norris in his s< study three days- later, was reported n by the minister. Two shots were e fired through a. window striking 0 near his desk. On February 4, the ^ si = Baptist church was destroyed by fire and at the same time flames were n discovered in the home of the Rev. Mr. Norris. Rewards aggregating p $8,000 were offered for the arrest 01 and conviction of persons re- p sponsible for the shooting and fires. 11 Meantime anonymous and threaten- ^ ing letters were received by Norris and wealthy deacons of his church. S1 A. grand jury on March mdicted Dr. Norris on a charge of perjury. ^ Seven hours after the indictment was served on the pastor, fire broke out in his home. The family barely escaped. Just previous to this, there 0 L J 1 +1 rm 11 LlctU UtJtJJ-l. dliUlllc.. tiiicgcu aubuviv vu the Rev. Mr. Norris. The State claimed that Norris was p responsible for the acts.

Rather than Work on Saturdays. ? ? The case of the German soldier 'aumann, who as an Adventist re- ? iised to work on Saturdays and pent several years in military imrisonment in consequence, has been i hrown into the shade by the fanati- ^ al obstinacy of another soldier H amed Mugge, a follower of the q ame sect. d Naumann put in three years in ^1 rison and then changed his mind, greed to work oa Saturdays like the j est of his comrades and is still servlg in the ranks. Mugge spent seven ^ ears in prison for refusal to obey ^ rders and maintained his attitude 3 the last.
