Mrs General Sherman has published an
appeal for contributions 10 the Catholic In
dian Mission fund, which Is in charge of a
volunteer bureau OF ecclesias.ics and lay
men at Washington. The Catholics com
plain that under the plan OF dividing the
agencies among different religions denom-
nations, their church has been uniustly
deprived of more than thirty agencies to
which it had established prescriptive
right, and that the priests have been driven
by force from missions which they had
maintained for many years. To defend the
Catholic missions the bureau of which we
speak was organized in 1873, and lis head,

ANOTHER OF THE nElsE.S
HEyGSES

At some OF the Episcopal CHURCHES in
England there has been large falling of
in the number of lady members regularly
attending the communion services. Scme of
the clergy, being much troubled about it,
began 10 investigate the cause, and found
that it was indeed novel one. 1t Is the
well-known custom in the Episcopal Church
for all COMMITMENTS to advance 10 the
chancel rail, and there kneel while par
taking Of the bread and wine The diff
Guilty with the ladies is that skirts riale ac-
cording to the present fashion are 50 mar
row that the wearer who kneels can not rise
without assistance. Some ciergymen would
attack the fashion from the pulpit; olhers
would let it alone for awhile, hoping for a
change in style; while others are embar-
raised, and know not what TO 90 about it.
