He said | There is enthusiasm in doing things good and ai It is a _question of doing our best for ourselves and the world in order that. we may add to the sum total of righteousness with which our God is leavening the universe.

NE of the prominent men of the Episcopai General Convention i now in the city is. the Rev.” E. W. Hunter of New Orleans, the -organizer of the Church Endowment Society, which is doing considerable work in se- | curing funds to meet many pressing needs in the Episcopai denomination. In a great many dioceses much difficul- | ty is experiencad in ralsing the stipend set apart for the support of the episcopate. The larger and more wealthy churches do not have as much trouble in securing this sum as the smaller and poorer churches and missions. In England, where the church has ex- isted for centuries, the episcopate and cathedrals have been endowed. In this country the endowment feature is some- what new and depends entirely upon the Hberality of the laity. The object of the society is to promote the :ndowment of and charitable gifts o cathedrals, churches, church missionary socleties, diocesan missions and church charities of all kinds, the support of the episcopate, diocesan and parochial funds, church orphan asylums, theological insti- tutions, church ¢chools, brotherhoods, sis- terhdods and all other religious, charita- ble and educational institutions and oper- atlons of the Protestent Episcopal church through the medium of life insurance, in- cluding annuities, bequests, gifts and all other sources, and to suggest, explain and demonstrate to the reverend clergy ways and means whereby through organized ef- fort under thewr direction charitable de- sires of the laily to benefit the abeve ob- Jjects may be systematized and economic- ally accomplished, The patron of the society is the presid- ing Bishop. Its president is the Bishop of Easton. The vice gresldents are the Bish- gpfi of Colorado, Pittsburg and Southern lorida and the coadjutor of Chicago. The promoter and secretary-general is ihe Rev. E. W. Hunter, rector of St. Anna's Church,. New Orleans, and the board of fifteen trustees includes the names of such financlers as the Hon. Levi P. Morton, Elbridge T. Gerry and Willlam A. Duer, who is treasurer. Its bankers are J. P. Morgan & Co.- Its head office is at the Church Missions House, Fourth avenue and Twenty-second street, New York, where the business manager directs that part of the work directly connected with the insurance plan of the society. The society was founded one year ago, and since that time more than $1,000,000 has been secured for the church. The Rev. Mr. Hunter, the organizer of | the soclety, was born in New Orleans, La., in 1859. He was educated in the Uni- versity of New Orleans and studied the- ology under Rev. James Foster of the Dubiin University. He was ordained four- teen years ago and served three years in the missionary field of the diocese of Louisiana, For the past eleven years he has been the rector of St. Anna’s Church, New Orleans. @ il @ CONVENTION TO CHANGE ITS RULES ———— Continued From Page Twenty-Three. lutlon was taken from the calendar and read by the secretary.

Hicks, a_squat- ter on marsh lands near Bayside. has again brought the construction crew of the Eureka and Klamath River Railroad Company to a standstill. Six months ago the company's piledriver crew was stopped by Hicks and 2 shotgun from bridging Daby Slough. The company had Hicks placed under Londs to keep the peace, these bonds expiring recently. The crew undertook yesterday to resume work. They drove a few piles without disturbance. ‘To-day Hicks warned the men to desist. They did so, and refused to turn to again when ordered by Fore- man Dean and Superintendent Root of the railroad company. The company has now removed its piledriver and has ap- | given up its attemptsto cross! arently gfl(‘ks‘ ‘m:d. \The California Northern. the rival road. has recognized Hicks' claim and pald him $500 for a right of way. —— STOCKTON, Oct. 13.—The court-martial which has been hearing the charges against Captain Willlam Bruce adjourned gine die without announcing any verdict. Findings were made up, but will have to ;)aus through- military channels before be- ng announced. | | | | There was a ripple of laughter through the room when this statement was made, and some persons inside the ralling joined in it, it it was noticed that Mr. Raynor did not ac- cept the remark as intended to be good nat- ured His face was flushed when he replied, | Ee @id without rising, saying: | f he states that outside the court I will say it Is fals | Captain Lemly--If he states that outside the | court it is another matter. but If he states | | | it in the court it is highly improper.

It has not occurred onc but over and “over cgain in this case. The | least little objection that comes in brings the most irritable humor possible on his part. All | I ask Is this: He made a statement this morn ing which reflected on me; that we read thin to the court that did not exist and a4 not read things that exist. Any man with any degree of sensibilify would object to that and I do not think my brother wants that state- ment to go to the court. They have tried the case impartially and fairly. There has been no statement about the trial of the case at all, but when I have read a report mot thinking the last part would bear on the case, the point was made that I did not read the whole cf it. These things are very objection- able to Admiral Schley and myself. and 1 think the gentleman owes us a statement in regard to that.” Captain Lemly—If the court please, I have to stand upon the record in this matter. It was not my intention to be offen: and when counsel ks of my temper I must say to remove the beam from your e you attempt to take the mate out of min I_referred more particularly this morning to the matter of the written question when he presented and then read the question differently, without any intention of giving offense, but in the earnestness of de- bate. Admiral Dewey—I think that ought to be enouzh. The statement of the judge advocate should be enough. ‘ The court understands that the judge advocate had no intention of wound- ing the feelings of either of you, and the court now adjourns.
