Bishop Lawrence's Remarks. At the close of Dr. McKims remarks there followed one of the most notable in- cidents of the day in the address of Bishop Lawrence of Massachusetts, who won the enthusiastic plaudits of his hearers. “In a large fami said Bishop Law- rence, “there are often two children, who, as the years pass, become bound together by peculiar tles of affiliation and sympathy. In the household they can be depended upon to move together and support each other. “In the family of the thirteen original states, Virginia and Massachusetts have stood shoulder to shoulder. To be sure, the Englishmen who landed here in 1607 were not the Englishmen who landed on Ply- mouth Rock in 1620. The settlers of Vir- ginia were churchmen; the settlers of Mas- sachusetts had broken from the Establish- | ed Chureh. “The two bands, the Virginian and the bay state, came from different parts of England and had many points of contrast in their social estate and education. The settlers of Virginia and Massachusetts, however, were Englishmen, not Dutchmen or Huguenots: they, with ‘all their super- ficial contrasts, were fundamentally the same, their race, history and traditions and | churchmansnip up to within a few years | of the date that they set sail were the ame. They both had the Engushman's ve of liberty, respect for constitutional law, common ‘sense and enterprise and | courage under hard conditions. “Though separated during the first cen- tury by the colonies of New York and Maryland, though unsympathetic in their religious tastes and habits, the bonds be- tween the two pure English colonies, Vir- nia_and Massachusetts, were steadily | vitalizing and strergthening, so that before the revolution came and the representatives of the different colonies gathered the hands of Virginia and Massachusetts met and | grasped each other with that instinct which draws brother and brother, and they then pledged themselves to uphold liberty and to stand shoulder to shoulder in the strug- gle for the rights of Englishmen.” The bishop referred in enthusiastic terms to George Washington and the pride which Massachusetts feit in him, and continuing, salc “No Massachusetts man can touch Vir- ginia soil without feeling his heart throb nd his eyes well up with tears as he re- calls how the verp verdure that wa look upon is enriched by the blood of Mas3a- chusetts. Aye, our boys are buried here, and through their blood and saertfice again We are one, bound together, we pray God, in bonds that neither time nor trial nor anything else can sunder. I dwelt too little on the church and our common interest as churchmen of Virginia and Massachusetts?

A delieht- this work have been apparent from the first, the members claim, as is evidenced largely by the fact that the number of li- censes for the sale of intoxicating drinks has been greatly reduced. In 1892 there were 1,100 licensed places in the District for the sale of intoxicating beverages: in the present year, 1898, the number has been reduced to about 660. When individual temperance workers ap- peared before the Commissioners and re- quested a reduction of the number of It- censes issued they were teld that they stood alone, that they did not represent the sentiment of the community, and for this reason their request could not be com- plied with.
