The Protestant Episcopal Diocese of
Iowa has had hard time in getting a
Bishop. II has decided now not to call a
special convention for the election of an
other clergyman to fill the office, but to
remain without prelate to the regular
convention, which meets on the Both OF
May. The income of this office is only
$1,000, and the work is hard. So the po-
sition seems hard one TO fill with exactly
sthe right kind Of a man.

CENTENNIAL FOLLY.
The Talkstive Commission ers-D Iscussins the
sunday Question.

PHILADELPHIA, July THE United
States Centennial Commission has been In ses-
sion for several days for the purpose OF trans
acting what It regards as important business.
Ii was voted to thank MIR. Evarts for his Fourth
Of July grafton, and Dayard Taylor and Mr..
Whittier for their poems. And long discussion
was had whether thanks should be given to
Vice-President Ferry for presidinR, but the de-
cision was adverse for the reason that he repre-
scented the President Of the Untod States,
which oficer ought not to be complimonted by
public body. One member said no would be
willing to vote TO censuro Grant because lie was
not present. Great dissatisfaction was ex-
pressed at what Is regarded as discourtesy on
the part Of the President in remaining at home
on occasion 80 marked as this Centennial
Fourth Of July.
The question Of opening the ground on Sun
day has been finally decided. For several
months petitions have been sent to tho Com
mission from the leading churches. from their
synods and assemblies, from Sunday school
organizations and other religious associations,
aud one petition that covered one end OF a large
table was presented Yesterday, and 1t was
claimed that they represented over FIVE mil
lions Of people. all praying that the
grounds might not be opened on Sun
day. On the contrary, many petitions,
from various places especially from Philadel-
phia urging that the grounds might be opened.
