TEMPLE OF TRUTH.
ANOTHER WORTHINGTON SCANDAL. STUDENTS OF TRUTH ON THE WATCH. [per press association] CHBisTcnnp.ou, Octobor 28. — Another split has occurred amongst the Students of Tiuth. Mr Worthington was seen to enter a- lady's house at 10.30 one evening, and was* watched by three students who saw him leave at 2 30 a.m, He excused himself by saying ho was engaged in literary work, but a meeting was held at which a number of the congregation resolved to I withdraw, though they purpose carrying on the work on Sunday evenings. Mr Worthington has a nineteen years' lease of the Temple of Truth, and declares lie will not give way, but a secession will seriously effect his finances, which may break down. This new development is the absorbing topic of conversation in the city.
A young man named William Orr was brought into tho hospital this (Saturday) morning suffering from internal injuries caused by a piece of wood striking him on top of tho nbJomen. The patient, who is an employee at the New Plymouth Sash aDd Door Factory's mill at Ngaire, was engaged , working near a machine on Friday, when a piece of wood came out and struck him with great force, knocking him against a truck. Dr. O'Carroll attended tho sufferer when brought to the Hospital, and did all in liis power to alleviate tho pain. The injuries are stated to be very severe. The attempt to observe the half-holiday on Saturday in DunediD, appears to be at an ond, says the Otago Daily Times, for the present. Noarly tho whole of the retail shops were open ou Saturday after noon and v evening. Until the rain came on j'n the afternoon tho numbers on the street were much larger tlim lias been the cuse for some time past. In the evening, despite the rather frequont sboweiß o f . rain, the streets were well lined with peoplo, who appear to have at onco reverted to tbe custom of paradng the Btreeti on Saturday night which prevailed prior to the short lived Saturday halfboliday movomont^
