Evangelist George A. Hilton to Have Charge—Program of Exercises —Mr. Hilton's Career. night, October 22, a series of union evangelistic services will commence in this city, under the leadership of fr. George A. Hiiton, in which nine churches unite. The ‘meetings are to be held In the atditorium of the Central Union Mission, because it 1s most centrally located. The pastors of the co-cperating churches are to preside in turn over the evening services, and each church is to furnish a part of the music. Mr. George W. Havell, the well- known gosp2l singer, will be in charge of the vocal exerc! The meetings are to ccntinue two veeks. Evangelist Hilton was formerly a res- | ident of this city, but his home for the past jten years has been at Alhambra, Ca! re he has been engaged constantly in angelistic meetings. In the cities in ch he has worked as an evangelist, it is said, he Fas had great success, and he has been very highly commended by some f the best evangelists in the country. Sketch of Evangelists Career. | Mr. Hilton is a lay evangelist, as are Mr. Moody and many of the most successful chers of the present day. He was born |in New York city, and at a very early age engaged in a mercantile business. On the breaking out of the civil war he enlisted among the first, and was In all the early stirring scenes in the Shenandoah vailey. Satur Will not Scratch fv is THE FINEST CLEANER GLEAN THE ©, VET wie CASIEY. He was captured in 1862 at Harper's Ferry, Va., by Stonewall Jackson; was exchanged later, ‘and entered Charleston, S.C., with Gen.'Q. A. Gilmour. Shortly before the close of the war he en- tered the government service in an official capacity In the internal revenue burea He served the governnent in this capacity for a period of ten years. It was during the latter year of his stay in the revenue service that he experienced the great life change that proved the opening door to his wenderful evangelistic career. He resigned his position with the government in face of the protests of his warmest friends. He decided to give the remaining years of his Life to the preaching of the Gospel and the uplifting of the sinful and destitute. He ts krown all over the United States as a prominent projector of religious and char, fteble works, among which the most f, mous is the Central Union Mission of this city. For the past fifteen years he fas given his entire time to evangelistic work, and while his home is in Alhambra, Cal” hs work and reputation is national in its character. He is always actively engaged in the work, and averages two meetings a day the year round, and covers about 20,000 miles of travel each year. He {s said to be one of the n.ost thorough and interesting teachers of the Bible in any land, while Prof. Slocum of Colorado Coll s heads the list in elucidating ie smaye he The Program. Following is the program for the mee! irgs to be held Saturday and Sunda: Saturday, 7:30 p.m., meeting for workers; Sunday, 11 am., sermon in Metropolitan Presbyterian Church, October 23: 3 p.m. meeting in mission auditorium for men only; 6 p.m., Gospel wagon meeting on Market space; 7:30 p.m., mass meeting in mission auditorium (daily during two weeks, noon meet:rg in Mission Chapel); 4:15 p.m., Bible reading in the mission au. eitorium; 6 p.m., Gospel wagon on Market space; 7:30 p.m., mess meeting in mission auditorium.

Is it to" be at the expenseyof work already under- taken? Are the banners of the church to be proudly waved jn remote corners of the earth, While those in our homes are to be dragged in misery and want? Nay; but let them be held aloft by earnest and true men, whose hearts are not sickened by a beggarly support. “The cry of expansion is an echo of Di- vine command. It is a right cry; but those who utter it must not tighten the strings of their purses. “Your committee earnestly asks that our right reverend fathers take these matters into consideration and institute such meas- ures as they think best for the remedy of the defects suggested. “There have been two thousand more baptisms in the last three years than in the like preceding period. Our attention is directed to a comparison of the relation between the number baptized and the num- ber of families in the church. The number of families not being returned, we are driv- en to a comparison with the number, of communicants. Fifteen years ago the number baptized bore a certain relation to the number of families and communicants. If the ratio was the same today the num- ber returned as baptized would have been fifty thousand more than the number re- ported. The inferences to be deduced would be mere surmises, but we think it our bounden duty to present the facts for thoughtful consideration and to invite in- tigation. One surmise we venture: Taken in connection with the large in- crease in the number of our lay readers and the evident halt in the organization of new work, to be presently noted, we infer the number of baptisms is not as large as it would have been had our clergy been enabled to enter on new fields to a larger extent than they have. “The number of persons corfirmed dur- ing the last three years 1s 3,50) more than in the like preceding period; 01 r communi- cants number today 63,145 more than in 18%5—an increase of 10 per cent. “The Sunday school statistics are satis- factory, the increase in the nunber of offi- cers and teachers being 8 per cent, and that of pupils nearly 4 per cent. The ac- tivities of the church in the Sunday school everywhere exhibit health and growth. The very large Lenten offering of the children this year is an exhibit of souné education. Parishes and Minn! “In the matter of parishes ¢nd missions we have made but little advance—there be- ing but twenty-one more parishes and forty-three mcre missions than there were three years ago. Yet there are 37 more church edifices. This indicates that in the period under review there has been more driving of stakes than lengthening of cords. ‘Tis well if the church be but gathering her strength for larger effort to extend her beneficent influence. The ratio of free sit- tings in our churches to the whole number per cent three years ago, while to- it is 77 per cent. The contributions of the last triennium exceed those of the like preceding period, $1,150,104.70, ‘The amounts contributed to the board of missions show large gains in the amounts given toward appropriations and by way of special contributions, aggre- gating $73,183. We have to note, ho Tr, that the gain for domestic m 1,423.16, #0: that the contribution foreign missions. shows a loss of $18,239 It is shown toy your committee that the needs of the foreign missions as great, aye, greater, than’ before. Hence, there is need that their-tlaims should be more dili- gently considered. Depositions From Ministry. “The attention.of your committee has been directed to the matter of depositions from the sacred ministry. The number is deplorably large, and absolutely the num- ber grows year by year. Yet to obtain a correct view comparison must be made with the whole'number of the clergy. Do- ing this we find that the number of deposi- tions in proportion to the number of the clergy has been steadily decreasing since 1880, and that the reccrd of the last six years is the best in the history of the church since 1808, “It is stated that our missions to deaf- mutes are threatened with intrusion. This church feels her ability to minister to all of this class, but she has not power to pre- vent intrusion. Your committee can only Tecommend that the church be made so ac- ceptable to them tkat they themselves will make the intrusicn nugatory, and commit the matter, where of right it belongs, to our right reverend fathers, the bishops of the church. “Your committee find great cause for thankfulness In the large and important work of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew, but they find also that there still exists great cause for its continued and increased activity. The nation's life fs builded upon the morality of its famil The man and the boy have their peculiar functions in the family life, and the woman and girl cannot wisely assume those functions. The family life 1s woven with the church's life. The man and the boy have their place in the church. When they abdicate those places not alone do they injure their own spir- itual lives, but they set awry the ma- chinery of the church, constituted to im- plant and nourish the spiritual lives of her people. In the pew should be found the family—father and mother and child—bound together in mysterious union, none of them should be found breaking the bans of that union in the house of God. Excess in Pleasure, “Another matter we find in the state of the church that needs correction is a ten- dency somewhat widespread to follow pleasure to great excess. Day after day religious duty is neglected for the sake of social functions. Family duties are for- gotten and church duties utterly ignored. We trust that the wrong of a life wholly given to the pleasures of the flesh will make itself apparent, and that hereafter we shall hear naught of rioting, but more and more of the devotion of all of the peo- ple of the church to lives of godliness, soberness and piety. Your committee regret to learn that the first day of the week, designated in Holy Scriptures as the Lord’s day fs not observed as prescribed by the canons of the church. We believe that the duty to abstain on the Lord’s day from occupations and amus ments not for His honor ought to be em- phasized. and we respectfully ask of our bishops that they do so in the pastoral let- ter. Your committee cannot refrain from add- ing a word about the work of the Women’s Auxiliary. The earnestness and zeal of these goodly women demand a response trom the men ef the church, and an exhibi- tion from thenwof-a somewhat like earnest- ness and zeal. #4 A view of the state of the church would be incomplete! without a werd of com- mendation of the beneficent work of the several sisterhoods of the church, and of the important undertakings and successful labors of many of?our deaconesses. Our attention has been directed to our church institutions. We find many of them wrecked, and many heavily burdened with debt. We earifest?y recommend that great care be taken and‘earnest study had before any church infgtitution be inaugurated, so that it may be’ wéll known that there is a need for it, and ainced not of a temporary, but of a permanent, character. We advise that early endowment be secureé@, and, further, that the endowment fund be in the hands of othérs than the active adminis- trators of the institution. We commend our church institutions to the loyalty of churchmen able to support them. We advise that an item be added to the blank for diocesan returns for contributions to the funds of church institutions, in order that the church may know the amount being invested in such institutions. Anniversary Occasion. “Your committee are reminded that on Whit Sunday next we come to the 350th anniversary of the inauguration of the use of the First Book of Common Prayer of King Edward VI. We trust that the im- portance of that book as the link connect- ing our Book of Common Prayer with the office and service books of remoter days will so impress itself upon the church that the oceasion will be used to rehearse the history of the Prayer Book and to incul- cate the important lessons taught by that history. We respectfully ask our right'rev- erend fathers to take such measures as oe THE BON % eters MARCHE S140818 7th Street. A Hodge-Podge of Little Things. (THIRD FLOOR.) A thousand articles. For 1 Cent.

Dominant Characteristics. “Your committee regret that they cannot report everything fair and prosperous in the state of the church. But notwithstand- ing the fact that in some instances we find the religious life of our people not all that it should be, yet we are rejoiced to know that earnestness, zeal and a walking in the tsteps of our blessed Lord are the dom- inant characteristics of thousands of our men and women. We rejoice to have the testimony that there is generally a desire to learn what Is right and to do it. “Your committee are unable to report the progress that was hoped for, yet they can report the activities of the church in healthy condition. The time spent in strengthening the things that remain is not lost. It is a necessary work, and we are today all the better prepared for the ad- vance that is now sounded. The banners must now go forward to the new domains which the progress of events has opened to this church, and the work of conservation of the last three years will but enable us to do ali the better the aggressive work of ihe immediate future. “Phat the canon governing this report may be observed, your committee submit the fol- lowing resolution and asks its adopuon: “Resolved, That a copy of the report here presented be transmitted to our reverend fathers in God, the house of bishops, with the request that they issue a pastoral let- ter, and asking their united prayers and esipcopal benediction.” The report was put on the calendar for further consideration. Change Inexpedient. The committee on prayer book requested and wus granted permission to consider no further the resolution presented by Dr. Ballershall of Albany providing that the words “according to the use of the Protest- ant Episcopal” be stricken from the title page of the prayer book. The committee deemed such change inexpedient. A resolution to adjourn Tuesday, October 25, and providing that the closing session be held at 8 o'clock p.m. on that date, was passed. The committee to which was referred the resolution congratulating the Czar of Rus- sia upon his recent pronunciamento favor- ing national disarmament reported it back favorably and also recommended the adop- tion of another. The latter provided that the United States government, when it shall appoint commissioners to the confer- ence proposed by the ezar, be requested to instruct such commissioners to endeavor to secure action by which all controversies should be settled by peaceful arbitration. This latter motion was laid on the table. The house was evidently in patriotic humor, so Rey. Benjamin W. R. Tayler of Los Angeles, who introduced last week the resolution welcoming closer lations be- tween the Untted States and Great Britain, and expr ng appreciation of the latter's sympathy for us during the recent war with Spain, be taken from the calendar and considered. This was agreed to, and Mr. Tayler then suggested that the words in the resolution, “shoulder to shoulder and flag to flag,” be stricken out, because th> convention was a body of peace and not of war. He acknowl- edged, however, that it was very possible the future would see both nations in that position, but he believed it best to elimi- nate the words. This was also agreed to. The Anglo-Saxon Sentiment. When the question was about tobe put on the passage of the resolution, several attempts wer2 made to sidetrack it, but without success. One member moved to refer it to a committee of three. A roar of nces defeated this. A motion to lay on the table met th> same fate. Deputy Stotsen- burg of Indiana said the resolution was one to be considered not by a congress of churchmen, but by the Congress of the United States. Th2 resolution logked to war, he declared, with Great Britain and the United States arrayed together on one side. Even this possibility did not stem the sentiment of Anglo-Saxon sympathy s0 prevalent, and Mr. Tayler’s resolution got so many favorable votes on a division that President Dix declared it adopted without making a count. Dean Hereford Called On. ‘The call for committees was taken up again, and Rev. Dr. Richards reported a resclution amending the canon relating to standing committees of churches in conti- nental Europe. There was some debate and the matter was referred back to the com- mittee on canons for further considera- tion. Upon this action being taken a young lay delegate from Omaha, Nebr., Mr. Clement Chas2, made what proved to be a very ap- propriate and welcome suggestion. He arose and, calling attention to the passage a few minutes before of the resolution commending more cordial relations betwe2n this country and Great Britain, suggested that the deputies would like to hear what the Dean of Hereford, who was seated on the president’s platform, might have to say on the subject. There was immediate ap- proval of this, and President Dix intreduc- ed the dean. Peaceful Alliance With England. He is a man of striking appearance and amiably surveyed his audience. He said h2 thoroughly appreciated the courtesy ¢x- tended to him and still more the resolution which had just passed the house by a near- ly unanimous vote. “I welcome an alliance, not, I apprehend, a warlike, but a peaceful alliance between the old country and the United States. When I see here before me representativ2s of the people from every section of this great country all entertaining the same f2eling it makes-me indeed rejoice.”” Such an alliance, h2 continued, was most desirable between’ people who speak the same language, have the same origin, and especially so when they hav> the same re- ligion. He said he had been in favor of such an alliance for a quarter of a century because he was united to this country by many tie n important one being,” he said smilingly, “that my better half comes from this side of the water.” served in the church in this dioceses of Georgia and Penn % Intense Desire in Britain. “I know,” he said in conclusion, “the feel- ing on the other side, and there is the most intense desire that we should all be united. Unity need not lead to any warlike demon- stration. It would, indeed, do more for the peace of the world than any war possibly could. He thanked the assemblage from his heart for its action, both for himself and his country. At the conclusion of the dean's remarks Deputy Woolworth of Nebraska arose to a question of privilege and called attention to the action of the house yesterday even- ing in voting to adopt article 10 of the con- stitution in place of article 3. Mr. Woolworth believed the subject of consecration of bishops for foreign coun- tries, which is embraced in article 10, was properly within the province of the canons and not in the constitution. He, therefore, moved to reconsider the vote taken yester- day and also moved to recall the message sent to the house of bishops announcing yesterday's action and notifying it that the house of deputies had receded. The motion to reconsider was adopted, and after a few discussion the message to the bishops was also recalled. Colored Church Workers. The regular order’ was called for, but was suspended in order to give Rev. Mr. Faude opportunity to make a report from the special committee on memorials of the colored workers in the church. He pre- sented three resolutions, one recommend- ing the appointment of a field secretary to stimulate and advance interest in the work among colored people; the second recom- mending generous consideration on the part of the faithful of the St. Augustin School in Raleigh, N. C., and St. Mark's School, in Richmord, Va., and the last, recommending postponement of the consideration of the appointment of a suffragan bishop. The resolutions were referred. Permission was granted to the committee on the General Theological Seminary to withdraw its report, made several days ago, and, after several announcements by | Secretary Hutchins, recess was taken to 3 o'clock. Notes of Interest. In the report of the session of the house of deputies yesterday the remarks made by Rev. John E. Iulger of Indiana were inad- vertently attributed te Mr. Stuart McKib- ben of that state. The bishops and deputies and the ladies accompanying them will be the guests of the board of trustees of the Corcoran Gal- lery of Art tonight from 9 to 12 o'clock. Admission will be by tickets, which were distributed today by the secretaries of the respective hcuses. If Epiphany Church had not been a con- secrated place today its roof might have trembled with the cheers that would have greeted the passage of the Tayler resolu- tion on close: relations with Great Britain. The desire of the deputies to express loud approval was apparent in all directions. Among the visitors to the house of depu- tles today was Rev. Paulus Moort, D.D. the well-known colored divine who is rec: tor of Trinity Church in the city of Mon- rovia, Liberia. Because the deputies in session at Epip- hany are zealous churchmen, it is not to be considered for a moment that they are not human in their regard for the humor of things. Evidence of this was afforded today when the resolution extending com- mendation to the Czar of Russia was pass- ed. One delegate wrote a resolution as apropos of the occasion, but on second thought concluded not to offer it. But it is too good to be lost, so here it i: “Resolved, That the convention hails with joy the reported marriage of Li Hung Chang with the Dowager Empress of China, ard sympathizes with the ter in the death, untimely or otherwise, of her son.” There was a mii ry meeting last night at 8 o'clock at Trinity Church, 3d and C streets northwest, on behalf of the Assyrian mission, which embraces ‘the churches of Persia and Turkey.
