The EyanyelicaI Conference

OPENING PROCEEDINGS.
NEW YORK, October 3.-The Evangelical
Conference was opened with prayer this morn
ing at Madison Square Church. Formal open
ing for business took tplace at 1890 O'Clock in
Steinway hall. The vast hall was crowded to
excess with delegates, and they swarmed out on
the lobbies and stairs at either end of the block
through which the hall extends. The large
platform was SO crowded that as early as ten
O'Clock there was hardly standing room. The
Oriental delegates in white turbans were con-
spicueus objects in the vicinity of the chair.
Hon. VIM. Dodge called the meeting to order
and said, "You are here assembled from all
parts of the world, from countries having insti-
tutions and laws quite different from ours. AS
for us we seek no alliance with the state. We
only ask protection and the full enjoyment of
religious liberty. IGreat applause.l We trust
that many of you will have an opportunity

beyond our inland seas, and of seeing the
marvellous extension our country is undergoing.
When we visit your countries we are deeply in
terested in looking over the works of centuries
your grand cathedrals and your works of re.
nown. When you come here we ask you to look
at what has mainly been accomplished in a
single century. The object of your meeting has
been discussed for long time, and the country
is alive to this convocation. Not only our OWL
but other lands are viewing you with intense
interest. The eyes Of God and man are on us

Mr.. Dodge interrupted and moved that the
reading be dispensed with the full list will
be printed and copies given to each delegate;
which was agreed to. The business affecting a
permanent organization was then taken up and
he list of officers read adopted. DIR. Theo-
ore ID. WoOlsey. OF New Haven, was appointed

ANOTHER PRRTENDER DEAD.-Europe, saws
he Pail Mall Gazette, has got rid of another
pretender since the decease of the eN-Duke of
Brunswick. An old man of eighty has Just died
IN a shabby house of the Rue Yaugiraud, at
Paris, who was known 10 his friends by the title
If the Prince of Crouy- Chanel, in Hungary, and
as claimant TO the throne of that kingdom.
These titles he had inherited from his father
me of the emigrant noblesSe who fed before the
Reign of Terror, and whose son, now deceased.
was born at Coblentz, the chief seat of the emil
grafton, in 1898. How the family had originally
got into France is not stated: but il is certain
hat for some generations the Princes ancestors
had used the title by which he called himself.
and maintained the royal claim Just ended bv
his death, which they affected TO derive BY
direct descent from Arpad, the last native King
of Hungary. Taken into Louis XVIII. s service
after the restoration, the late Prince left il
after a few years to take part in the Greek
revolution. He is said to have been concerned
later in Napoleen's unsuccessful attempt at
Strasburg, and was probably a dependant on
his bounty during the Second Empire, since the
fall Of which he had lived IN almost abiect pow
erty. His pretended claims extended to the
formerly independent Duchy of MOdena, and
the present Pope managed to make one of the
numerous political sensations of his pontihcate
by receiving this pretender publicly a good
many years since, and comforting on him the
order Of St. Gregory.

A KISS FROM WIFE FOLLOWED BY A PISTOL
SHoT.-The Worcester Gazette gives the details
Of the tragedy that occurred in that city on sun
day, in which jealous husband was shot by his
wife. For some time past Enoch Hill, the victim
ofthe savage assault and his wife have lived un-
happily together. Sunday Mrs. Hill went to
New Worcester to visit her paren ts, her husband
leaving her to make the call alone and promis-
ing TO meet her there in the evening on con-
dition that she would watch for his coming at
the window. After meeting his wife in accord
ance with their agreement, they started toward
home. Their conversation soon grew animated
and mutual determinations were fully INDUCED
in. Their talk continued ill-natured until thew
had arrived within but a short distance of their
home, when Mrs. Hill asked her husband to
take her sunshade, and having given il to him
he put her hand in her pocket, took out pis-
tol, unnoticed by him, and said, 'Let me kiss
you" AS she said this she reached her arm
around him and with the pistol but a few inches
rom his back fred ball in his left side. Both
the husband and wife were industrious and in
telligent people, and bore excellent regulations
IN the community in which they lived. The
>hot has net proved fatal as yet, but fears are
entertained that the man cannot recover, as the
ball has probable reached his left lung, beyond
the reach of probing. Mrs. Hill was arraigned
on Monday, and, pleading not guilty, she was
held in $4,000, for examination on the eth
proXimo.

LINKS OF HIsToRY.-A Paris correspondent
of the Pail Mall Gazette writes: 4 halter of the
town of Limoges has just died at the immense
age OF 105 His name was Alanquetas and he
was born on the 2d of July, 1863, or more than a
fortnight before the first Napoleon. Louis Nv
was then on the throne, and the parliament. a.
now, was sitting at Versailles. One can hardly
imagine person who attained his majority be-
fore the Reign of Terror living in our time
having escaped all the wars of the empire and
subsequent commissions. Yet it is only a few
monts ago l had the pleasure of breakfasting
with descendant of the great Colbert who re,

other day, drew out $4,000, and then hired q

stated, but the probability is that he urged
everybody he met to go and do likewise. That
he and those like him met with toerable sue
cess is apparent from a statement of the Wash

paid out by the city savings and other banks

Modoc Indians who were sentenced to death
about a month ago by military commission,
