Status of Reformed Church Members. A resolution was introduced by Rev. Dr. Wm. Praill of Detroit providing that a com- mittee of five bishops and five deputies be appointed to ascertain the status of mem- bers of the Reformed Episcopal Church and of reconfirmation of such persons who may desire to come back into the Enpis- copal Church, and report thereon, if possi- ble, to the present convention. ‘A motion to lay on the table met with a chorus of on “no,” but the mover managed to delay consideration by objecting to imme- diate action, and it went to the calendar. | The call for resolutions brought forward Rey. Dr. Davenport of Tennessee, who presented resolutions discharging the com- mittee of canons from further considera- tion of the resolution regarding the admin- istration of holy communion and moving its reference to the committee on common prayer book, which was passed, and to also discharge it from further consideration of the resolution offered Saturday by Dep- uty Stotsenburg. providing for the estab- lishment of the office of evangelist. Mr. Stotsenburg earnestly opposed this motion, but it was overwhelmingly passed on a di- vision by a majority of nearly 200. The committee on education was, on mo- tion, given permission to hold meetings in conjunction with the same committee of the house of bishops. Rey. Dr. Davenport then secured permis- Right Rev. Sam‘!

Am, of the house of bishops was received announcing its [committee on the resolutiogs of the Lam- beth conference, ; Rev. Lindall W. Saltonstall of Connecti- {cut offered a resolution, which was refer- red to the committee on education, provid- ing for the consolidation of the several so- cities devoted to the work of preparing young men for the ministry into one order and making the latter one of the institu- tions of the church The last business previous meeting of the deputie board of missions was Rev. Dr. Walton W. to the joint d bishops in the resolution offered Battershall of Al- bany providing that the words “Protestant Episcopal” be stricken from the common prayer book. It was referred to the com- 2 on prayer hock Board in Session. The board cf missions was called to or- der, and after tie 288th hymn, “The Spirit of the Living God,” was sung Bishop Whip- ple, who presided, offered prayer. Re Henry Anstice of this city acted tary. Resolutions commemorating the twenty. fifth anniversary of Bishop Hare in his work among the Indiens in South Dakota were offered by Mr. George C. Thora: treasurer of she Domestic and Foreign Mis sions So ed to sn Bishop ty. and Bi ak on them, Whipple, with carnest and quent impressiveness, pictured the great service rendered by Bishop Hare in his quarter of a century of missionary work. Bishop Potied of New York added testimon » that of Bishop Whipple. He re the time when Bishop Hare, Whipple and himself were pupil » same theological ary. “There was considerable w ness on the part of Thomas and myself that needed much attention,” he said, good hu- moredly, “but [ will say that Bishop Hare mple to us then as he hop Whipple proceed- elo- recited ani of and spoke n ’ piety and energy. fon when Rishop Hare was in Europe A guest at a dinner, where he sat Bishop of an right of a lady upon whose left hop of the Anglican Church.

In concluding his address Bishop Potter drew forth from a scarlet bag an exqut- sitely modeled silver loving cup, and stated it there was a desire to show some sub stantial token of the love in which Bishor held. He was sure the cup would ything more potent than « read the inscription, wh hold He then as folloy's “To the Right Rev. Willlam Hobart Hare, D.D:, fi iends who loye and honor him. 18: The Bishop's Response. Bishop Hare advanced to the platform. He was visibly affected by the tender trib- utes he had listened to. He replied to the remarks of his «admirers and lifetime brethren, in feeling words, and then with his characteristic nobility he deprecated so much praise for himself. He spoke cf other missionary bishops who had, too, devoted a quarter of a cen- tury and more to devoted service in_the cause of Christ. Ue named Bishop Wi liems of Japan, Archdeacon Ware of Chin Bishop Holly of Hait!, Bishop Morris of Oregon and others, and then paid high praise to the workers in South Dakota. lifted me aloft,” he exclaimed with of feeling, “‘and put me here.

At the conclusion of Bishop Hare's ad- dress a call was made for resolutions and reports, and Bishop Peter D. Rowe, L.D.; missionary bishop of Alaska, gave an in- teresting description of the work of the crurch in the wilds of the northwest. He pietured the hcspital work done under bis direction, where the sick and infirm were taken care of, ard showed that the ud- vance of Episcopal doctrines was wide- spread ani rescking further and further his | was engaged in evangelism in such a coun- try as Alaska. “Why?" I asked. “Because I didn't think thet Episcopal Church could permit itself to get down to the level of sich people as are found out there. “Ah, madam," 1 repliedy:tyou are right. The Hpiscopai Church does/not get down to the level of those people. Jt brings ail peo- ple up to its level.” u There was much applause at this. Thanks to Woman's Auxiliary. @n motion of the bishop of M: husetts a resolution was unanimously dilopied pro- viding that “the board of missions recetve with gratitude the united offering of the woman's auxiliary to the board of missions | of over $80,0), for the mfssionary work of the church. The board places on record its appreciation of the de¥otion of the wo- men of the church and hails with thanks- giving their increasing generosity.” Necessity of Special Training. Rev. Dr. Smith, president of Trinity Col- lege, Hartford Conn., addressed the bod on the subject of the necessity of -specially training ministers for particular fields of missionary work. ‘Trinity College was de- voted to the further education of ordained ministers. He was followed by Bishop White of Indiana, who warmly commended the plan, Phe church, he declared, with all its enthusiasm for the eXtension of the knowledge of God to those in ignorance,was weak, lamentably weak, in providing means for it. It was doing absolutely nothing to train men to do that especial work. No further business being before the board of missions adjournment was had until next Monday evening at 8 o'clock. Text of Resolutions. At the request of numerous delegates, the full text of the following resolutions, pre- sented in the house of deputies this morn- ing, is given below: By Rev. Mr. Saltonstall of Connecticut: “Whereas there are several societies now existing in different sectfons of this country whose object is to aid worthy young men seeking to prepare themselves for the work of the ministry of this churen, and “Whereas these societies receive their funds from necessarily limited areas, and “Whereas it is decmed advisable that this church should have but one society for this purpose, to which the offerings of all churchmen desirous of aiding young men in their preparation for the ministry may be directed; therefore, “Resolved, That the committee on educa- tion be requested to consider the prac- Ueability and the advisability of conso..dat- ing the several societies now existing, and according to the resulting society a place among the permanent institutions o. this church, responsible, reporting to the gen- eral convention.” By Rev. Dr. Ho chusetts: “The Whitsund Mi, being the th enniversary of the publication of the Book of Common Prayer, “Resolved, That the house of bishops he requested to call the attention of the church to this fact in their pastoral letter, that the occasion may be employed for the better instruction of the people in the his- tory and meaning of the prayer book. By Rev. Dr. Prall, Michigan: “Resolved. the house of bishops coneur- ring. That a jeint committee. consiting of five bishops and five mcemh 's of this house, be appointed to take into consideration the question of the validity of the oré-rs of the Reformed Episcopal Church, ana whether reconfirmation of the members of said church, when they come jnto this church, be necessary and desirable: and report their findings, if possible. to th's convention, and if not possible, to the next general convention of the church.” By Rev. Edw. B. Spalding of California: “Whereas at the last general convention it was resolved, by the onanimous action of both houses of this’ convention, that Quinquagesima Sunday schoo!’ should be set apart as a time to instruct the mem- bers of our communion regarding the needs of and to take up a collection for an en- dowment fund for infirm and ‘gged clergy of the church; therefore, Resolved, That this hause :respectfully request the bishops of our dioceses and missionary jurisdiction to issue’ a pastoral yearly at this time to the-clerty and laity of their jurisdictions, to eall te attention to this most sacred obligation that rests upon the church.” sy Rey. Dr. Battershalt of Atbany: “Resolved, the hotse of bishops concur- ring, That the words ‘Protestant Episcopal’ be stricken from the title page pf the pray- er book, so that the title shall read: “The Book of Cammon Prayer and Ad- ministration; the Sacraments and other rites and ceremonies of the eburch, accord- ing to the use of the church in the United States of America, together with the Psal- ter or Psalms of David." Division of City Diocese: At the afternoon session yesterday the deputies resumed the discussion on the proposed amendment to the constitution, king out the provision that “no city shall form more than one diocese.” It was urged that the dio of New York and Brooklyn was so large as to be unwieldy and that division was essential. The amendment finally prevailed. Article 5 was then recommitted for further considera- tion by the committee. Article 6 was adopted on a vote by dioceses. It is as follows: Section 1. The house of bishops may es- tabi missionary districts in states or ter- ritories or parts thereof nct organized into dioceses. It may also from time to time change, increase or diminish the territory included in such missionary districts in such manner as may be prescribed by canon. See. 4. The general convention may ac- cept a cession of the territorial jurisdiction of @ part of a diocese when the bishop and convention of such diocese shall propos such cession, and three-fourths of the parishes in the ceded territory and also the same proportion of the parishes within the rema..ing territory shall consent there- Sec. &. Missionary districts shall be or- ganized as may be prescribe? by canon of the general convention. Lively Debate. The introduction of the motion to adopt ticle 7 led to sharp division over the so- called provincial system. It provides that dioceses and missionary districts may be united into provinces by the general con- vention in such manner and under such conditions as shall be provided by canon. ‘The committee's report provided for unit- ing dicceses into “provinces.” Dr. John H. Egan of the committce presented a minor- ity report, holding that. the civil division of the country into states should be fol- lowed by the church without the creation of str ecclesiastical “provinces.” The debate was carrjed on by Rev. Drs. ‘Taylor of Springfield, Fulton of Pennsylvania and Rey. G. H. Ward of Florida in support of the provincial system, and Rev. Dr. Hunt- ington of New York and Rev. John J. Faude of Minnesota against it. The sub- Ject went over until today. Notes of Interest. “fhe Churchman and the Future” will be the subject of an address by Edward Lowe Temple, delegate to the general con- vention from the diocese of Vermont, and author of “The Church in the Prayer Book,” Thursday evening, at §, o'clock, at the Church of the Incarnation, corner of N and 12th streets northwest. Ajl seats are free and all will be welcome. The program for the- remainder of the present week fs as follows: Tonight at 8 pm., St. John’s Church, meeting of the Evangelical Education So- Capt. 5. 0.

Dr. Parks, Massachusetts; Rey. Dr. Huntington, New York; Mr. Davis, Wash- ington, D. C.; and Mr. Fuller, Chicago. Bishop Garrett of Dallas is an enthu- siastic advocate of the education of women as a special phase of religious work. Re- garding woman as the source of human life, he believes in purifying her and making her fit to send forth a higher type of man- kind. He does not place so much import- ance upon the work of reforming adult transgressors, believing that the most di- rect and most effeetive reform work lies in changing woman. Graduates of the Rerkeley Divinity School of Connecticut met last evening at the Ar- lington Hotel for a social reunion. Bishop Leonard of Ohio presided and Rev. Dr. Vikbert of New York city was secretary. About fifty men were present. There are in the house of deputies thirty Berkeley men, representing twenty-six cloceses. There are eleven bishops also who studied at Berkeley. The meeting last evening was entirely informal. Very many of those present spoke, giving reminiscences of Bishop Wiilams, of Rev. Drs.

Brainard, Lines, Strange, Hart, Murphy, Craik, Hodges, Nelson, Re Messrs. Woodcock, Lewis, W.

One of the privileges desired of the per- sons from whom rooms were rented for the convention Deriod was “smoking to be al- lowed.” At recess every day numbers of them are to be seen standing in groups and ardently “pulling” at fragrent cigars. Justice McDonald and Dean O'Meara of the Canadian delegation left the city last night for their homes. The Parochial Missions Society for the United States will meet tonight at Epinh- any Church. Bishop Potter of New York will preside and the speakers will be Bish- ops Hall, Gailor and Dudley and probably Bishop Satterlee, who is vice president of the society. During the session of the board of mis- sions today a gallant deputy inquired $ vnoceupicd seats in the body of the church might not be offered to the ladies who were standing. Bishcp Whipple regretfully ruled it out of order, because adoption of the promised resolution would change the rules governing the assembly. Bui there Was a flutter of feminine approval all the same.

EPISCOPAL CONVOCATION. The Evening Star Accounts Present a Complete History. ‘The Evening Star presents daily a com- plete report of the proceedings of the Episcopal convocation which began its ses- sions in this city Wednesday last, and, as has always been the case with large gath- erings here, the best way for residents and visitors to retain u full and complete his- tory of the important church meeting is to secure copies of The Star covering the period during which the convocation is in session. The Star will be mailed to any ad- dress for the three weeks covering the con- vention from October 4, for 35 cents, post- age prepaid. Not Bishop Williams. ‘To the Editor of The Evening Star: In your last evening's issue you published a letter on the subject of marriage and divorce and attributed to the pen of the Rt. Rev. Jchn Wiliams, presiding bishop of the church in the United States. The letter was not written by the mest vener- able head of the church in this camntry, but by myself. It was not addressed to he genera! convention, ner yet to the house of bishops. It s written for and pub- shed by the Ltying Church of Chicago. Whiie I um quite sure the venerabic pre- siding bishop ought to hold the same p.si- ten 1 hold on the subject, yet I have no means of knowing that ne does. And though he did, it would not be just or fair that a letter written by an obscure presby- ter should appear under the nam= and sanction of the most distinguished bishop of the church in the United States. The error was natural cnougii, because of the identity of name, but for Bishop Wil- liams' sake I trust you will rectify the error by the publication of this letter. SOHN WILLIAMS, Oct. 11, 1898.
