DEATH OF BISHOP ONDERDoNK.- is with
feelings OF deep sorrow and sincere regret that we
announce the death of Rev. H. U. Onderdonk'
formely bishop of this diocese who died about
half past three o'clock yesterday morning, at his
residence, in Pine street, above Thirteenth His
disease was dysentery Bishop O. was a native
of New York, son of DR.. John Onderdonk, of
that city, and brother of Bishop Benjamin T.
Onderdonk,' Of the diocese Of New York He
commenced life as a doctor of medicine, and
after being graduated, we believe, from the Uni
versity of Edinburgh, Scotland, practised for
some years in his native city. Afterwards study
ing theology he was ordained to the ministry in
the Episcopal Church, and after presiding over
several congregations in the State of New Y ork
was finally, in 1927, elected assistant bishop Of
this diocese with Bishop White, who died in
1886. Bishop Meade was the candidate nomi-
mated in opposition to him. Bishop Onderdonk,
was ordained in Christ Church, in this city He
continued in charge of the diocese until the year
1915, when he resigned his position, and was
succeeded by Bishop Potter.
Bishop Onderdonk, besides being fine theo-
logian, has, on several occasions, appeared before
the world as an author. A few years ago his
sermons were published, and a tract entitled
"Episcopacy tested by Scripture, /" has also ema-
mated from the same source and it is regarded as
the most lucid and eloquent essay ever written
on that subject in ourlanguage. He departed
this life with great calmness, and in the blessed
hope of glorious Immortality. We have not
ascertained his exact age, but believe it to have
been about seventy years. His funeral will
probably take place on Thursday when the SER
vices will be performed in St. Peters Church,
Pine street, near Thrd.-Phila Press Of Tues
day.

YANKEE ECONOMY - The State-house at
Montpelier, Vt, was burned two years ago.
and the Legislature now refuses to appropriate
money to rebuild it, because several other towns
wish to pay the expenses if the capitol can be
removed to them. Montpelier will probably
have it repaired. That's what we call sharp
practice.

A BOYS TONGUE FASTENED TO LAMP Posi-.
On Saturday week a little fellow about
eight years old, son Of Mr.. Gilleau, bookseller,
while playing with some other boys on North
street, approached a lamp post and carelessly
applied his tongue to its gray-frosted surface,
when, in an instant to the boys own horror and
utter establishment of his playmates, he was held
fast by his tongue to the post, suffering very Sc
we're pain, and totally unable to help or extricate
himself. Of course the boy could not speak, and
could only manifest his feelings by signs with his
hands Various applications of warm tea, steam,
&C., were made by some neighbors who heard
the unusal noise made by the other boys, and
came to learn what was the matter, but of no
avail /; such was the action of the cold iron that
the hold was even getting tighter; when, after
about ten minutes had elapsed, the boys father
heard Of the affair, and fastening to his relief, he
took knife and was obliged to cut the tongue
loose leaving its skin still fast to the post, and
causing the blood to flow profusely. Immediately
on his release, the poor little fellow became in
sensible, and was taken home London &C. NJ
