What the Erection of a New Bishopric WIIL Cost and Its Endowment Suggested. The division of this Episcopal diocese has been made the subject of a series of twenty sermons, the first of which Bishop Paret delivered yesterday at St. Michael and All Angels’ Church, Baltimore. It will be re- membered that at the convention of the diocese last May it was decided by a<unan- imous vote of both clergymen and laymen that the development of the church and its future welfare require the division of the diocese, with the establishment of another bishopric, having Washington as its seat. Bishop Paret, in his sermon; said: “A new diocese requires another bishop, another convention, with all the necessary expenses attending its organization and work. And the committee for Washington have estimated that it will be necessary for them, in addition to present resources, to raise the annual sum of $2,500, which would be equal to the interest at 5 per cent on $50,000. They have heartily and wisely de- termined to raise that principal sum and invest it, and in the few weeks for which they have been at work they have already pledged to them the sum of $45,000. “The diocese remaining, with Baltimore as its central city, will lose from its avail- able income by the going off of Washing- ton $2,787. It will save by reduction in cer- tain expenses $633. This leaves an annual sum of $2,154 to be provided, and a princi- pal sum of $40,000 ought to be provided: to meet this need of annual interest. “The committee appointed for the Balti- more portion of tae present diocese have had before them the proposal to do as Washington is doing, and as almost all the other dioceses in the land have done or are doing; that is, to raise the whole principal sum as a fund to be invested. But the plan has met with some opposition, and another Plan of voluntary additions to the present assessment has been urged; that is, that the vestries of some of the parishes should, by their own vote and free will, largely increase the amount they are contributing for diocesan expenses. Parish Assessments. “This diocese of Maryland, with all its present strength, including the two great cities, has screly fretted under the burden of the very moderate present assessment upor the parishes. Every year protests come from vestries asking to be excused from ‘part. Every year some assessments remain entirely unpaid. “The con.mittee of ways and means will telt you that the assessments at the pres- ent scale do not by any means meet our expenditures, and that we are each year drawing upon u balance that was accumu- lJated during the two years in which the bishopric was vacant. Heavier assessment, even if voluntarily accepted at the first, wiil soon grow to be burdensome. The first generous impulse will grow cold. 2 ‘Besides, the parochial prosperity upon which such kind offers are founded is a very variable thing. This very city will give you some striking instances of par- ishes, once very strong, left weak and al- most stranded by the changes of shifting population. One of the strongest now in the city iells me of reduction in its income amounting to two or three thousand dol- lars during the last three years by finan- cial changes, removals and deaths. Besides this,the vestry cannot control the generosity or power of the people. And yet again, if it is promised by the vote of the vestry this year, it can just as easily be with- drawn by the vote of the vestry next year. A bishop may, in the very fulfillment of his duty, come into collision with a vestry —may beceme, deservedly or ‘undeservedly, unpoular. Such things have happened. And there is sad experience in our ecclesiastical history to emphasize the warning of this Possibility. “And there is yet another difficulty. Grant that these generous impulses do not die out or falter; there are other obligations to be met. “The missionary work of the church must not fall to any lower level. The once closed churches must not be closed again. Our work of theological education must not suffer. You know with what struggle and difficulty we are doing our present work in these matters, and you know human na- ture so well as to be assured that if men, even with prefessed willingness, double their contribution for the diocesan expenses there will be less enthusiasm and less giv- ing for missicns. = “I can not let the episcopate thrive at the cost of our poorer parishes and mis- sionary work. There must be some other way besides that of additional assessment. Endowment the True Method. “The true method is that of endowment. But some churchmen tell us that they do rot believe in endowments. They say that each generation must provide for itself in religious matters. Stop a moment. ‘Provide for itself” Is that what our giving is for? Is that the selfish principle which governs it? No, brethren, it is an unworthy thought. “You are to provide the means for doing the Lord’s work nobly. The church’s work is not saving our souls; it is going after all. It is not for ministering to those who pay it is for reaching and blessing those who cannot pay. It is not working for this generation; it is for building and strength- ening and enlarging the church for yet grander work in the times that are to follow. “The children of this world are wiser. They do not leave the next generation to provide for itself. They recognize that law of nature which God has put first in His holy words, that the parents should lay up for the children. “Every man who leaves money for his children speaks his protest against that cry of no endowments. Every life insurance refutes it. Every great commercial enter- prise which is to outlast a life protests against it in every dollar of capital invest- ed for future results. “Why, all the commercial methods of the world tell the same story. If a man is to build up or carry on a business he endows it by the capital which he invests. If a steamboat company is to be established or @ great railroad built it must be first en- dowed by the money accumulated from the stockholders. Money provided beforehand is the great commercial law. If a club is to be formed and a club house built those interested come together and endow it by providing beforehand the money needed to make it honorably secure.” —>_—_ The Fish Law. There is a warrant out for the arrest of Augustus L. Grimes for an alleged viola- tion of the law for the protection of fish in the Potomac river. The information on which the warrant is based was obtained by Precinct Detective Frank Burrows of the seventh precinct. He alleges that Grimes hauled seine in what is known as Little river near the Analostan Island. It is alleged that the offense was committed last Friday and a big haul was made. The fish caught, it is said, were perch, catfish, mullets and eels. —_—.__. Pleads Not Guilty. Thos. J. Taylor today pleaded not guilty to an indictment charging him with the murder of his wife, Nannie W. Taylor, at their home on 11th street southeast in Sep- tember last. It is charged that Taylor shot his wife, killing her almost instantly, be- cause ge believed her unfaithful. He also shot himself, but the wound proved to be a trifling one, and he soon recovered. It is understood that at the trial, which has been set for tomorrow morning, before Judge Cole, in Criminal Court No, 2, the defense of insanity will be urged. ——_ Carried a Revolver. William Hamilton, a boy who was armed with a pistol, was arrested in Northeast Washington Saturday night by Policeman Riley. His excuse was that he was just carrying the weapon for fun, but the offi- cer charged in the Police Court this morn- ing that he carried the weapon with intent to use it. The charge was sustained and a sentence of six months imposed. —— Prof. Samuel Ramsay read a paper on Second Occupation of Canaan by the before a large audience at the home of Miss Clara Barton, corner of 17th and F streets northwest, yesterday afternoon. sa AMUSEMENTS. An Evening in Iceland.—Saturday was a day of pleasure for the white orphan chil- dren in the various orphan institutions in this city. They were the invited guests of the Washirgton Light Infantry Corps to the “Evening in Iceland,” which is now running at their armory. At 8 o'clock the spacious room was filled with all sizes of inquiring children, anxious to know the why of this and the wherefore of that, some dancing, others romping with the clowns, and still Others sitting down and looking as if they had suddenly been trans- ported into some fairyland. Stately nuns walked around in a state of pleasurable ex- citement, admcnishing some to be more quiet and telling others to leave their seats and join in the fun. There was music all the afternoon, and it was just the kind of music the crowd appreciated. “The Bow- ery,” “The Sidewalks of New York” and “Her Eyes Don’t Shine Like Diamonds” seemed to be especially pleasing to the boys, who danced and capered as if pos- sessed of more than their usual amount of spirits. Capt. and Mrs. Allison Nailor fur- nished the candy, bananas and oranges for their guests, while Mrs. John R. Gallo- way and Mrs. Nailor did the honors of the afternoon. The children stayed until near- ty dark, and then only with difficulty could be persuaded to go.

Elks’ Hall was too small to comfortably accommodate the attendance upon the meetirg of Perseverance Lodge of Good Templars Saturday night, the assembly in- cluding visitors from nearly every lodge in the District. Past Chief Templar John Bryson presided. Five members were add- ed to the rapidly increasing membership of the lodge and the ceremonies attending the initiations were rendered with a pre- cision. and impressiveness seldom attained, and the informal reception which followed proved an enjoyable occasion.

Sentences Passed on Vagrants and Those Who Used Too Much Sunday Liquor. There were fifty-five prisoners in the cells in the Police Court this morning, and twelve of them weré females. As is usual on Mondays Judge Kimball had more than three-fourths of them in his court, for most of them had been arrested for petty offenses and were charged with nothing more serious than violations of the District ordinances. ; Judge Kimball’s court does not open for business until 9:30 o’clock, and the pris- orers, or many of them, were in the build- ing more than two hours before this time. Those who were in the judge’s procession were marched into court and stood behind the iron grating, where the audience gazed at them for nearly half an hour. Then Judge Kimball appeared and the wheels of justice started to revolve. George Saulsbury was the name on the first paper ground out and the charge against him was vagrancy. “I found him in ‘his usual condition,” said Officer Flathers. ‘He was on the street drunk and he is drunk nearly all the time.” 5 “Why don’t you stay sober two or three days?” he was asked. “I’m not drunk all the time,” he said, “because my money won't hold out.” “Where's your home?” “I'm entitled to a place in Soldiers’ Home,” he answered, “but I have some trouble in remaining there.” “Of course you do,” remarked the judge. “Now, is not whisky the cause of your trouble?” “Well, yes,” he replied. many others. I can't pa: drinking it if I can get “I thought so, and you may go do for thirty days, where you cannot get i John Moresi, a fruit dealer at 1710 Penn- sylvania avenue, was in the procession because H. P. Rusk had sworn out a war- rant charging that he had an awning which was not eight feet from the grade of the sidewalk. The defendant disputed the statement made by Mr. Rusk, and the case went over for a report from the police. The defend- ant’s personal bonds were taken. Bad Langunge. “I didn’t curse or swear,” said a colored boy named John Lewis, who had been com- plained against by James E. Richmond, one of the ambulance drivers. “He used profane language,” said Rich- mond, “and was also vulgar. His lan- guage wasn't fit for ladies to hear.” There was a question of veracity between the driver and the boy, and the court de- cided against the boy to the extent of $2. Lewis Banks, a young colored man, ex- hibited four boxes of matches to the court, and it was the purchase of the matches that got him in trouble. “I bought these matches from a peddler, and gave him 10 cents,” said Banks, “and he wouldn't give me any change.” “This dispute attracted a large crow said Policeman Barnes, “and Banks was very disorderly.” “When were you court asked. “About six months ago,” answered. “For what?” Fighting.” “Five dollars or fifteen days.” “Judge, your honor,” said the prisoner, “will you give me until Saturday to pay the fine? I have a sick wife and baby at home, and I’m their only support.” “I can’t give you the time,” the court told him. “That practice had to be stop- ped, because the privilege was abused so much.” “I’m like a great whisky without last arrested?” the the prisoner Peculiar Actions. A middle-aged man, with long curly hair, gave his name as Robert Frank. He was dressed in the uniform of the inmates of the Soldiers’ Home, but he declined ‘to say anything concerning himself. “I found him at Massachusetts avenue and lith street Saturday night,” said the policeman. “He had a string of horse- chestnuts, which he had waved at some ladies, and then he stood on the cable track, and waved them in front of an ap- preaching train. The gripman stopped his train, and the man turned his back towards the grip car and fell against it.” “What's the matter with this man?” the court interrupted. “Is he crazy?” “He acted that way,” the officer an- swered, ‘and even after I arrested him he acted peculiarly and caused trouble.” “Where do you live?” the prisoner was asked, but he made no response, and the court committed him for examination. Charles Howard was disorderly on street Saturday night, and Judge Kimb: assessed him $5 for his fun, but, short of cash, he had to step back. Mrs. Ford was in the procession, charged vider her maiden name, Jessie McCoy, with having been disorderly on the street. After Typhoid BROKEN UP IN BODY AND § TEM SI LY TA} TRIT—SYS- D.

Frederick Hart, a druggist, seems to have been his best customer in the line of alco- holic stimulants, and he was very nervous from the effects of a protracted spree. “I'm in his employ,” said a young man in the audience, “and {f your honor will let him go, I'll do the best I can for him.” “That may be true,” said the court, “but he fs in no condition to be released. He can’t keep his hand still for an instant now.” “He’s been talking about suicide,” said Policeman Passeno,“‘and they’ve been keep- ing pistols and razcrs from him." Judge Kimball said he thought Hart was not in preper condition to be released, and held kim in $100 security or ten days on the farm.

Well, your honor, I did take a few drink: said the prisoner, “but then my wife's left me, and that’s enough to make any man drink.” He promised to do the best he coyld, and the judge released him.
