sion churches are already talking of sending

Earl Cairns recently presided at meeting of
the Church Missionary society. He remarked
that 1t was said by some that activity in mis-
slonary work was test of a standing or fall
ing church, and he belived there was a great
deal of truth in the observation. During the
last century the Church Missionary society had
done great work, not only in foreign and
heather lands, but also at home, and it had
been source of vitality in evangelical religion
IN this country for which they could never be
sufficiently grateful.
The North Philadelphia Methodist district
conference has refused to renew the licenses of

bored more earnestly or successfully in the
past twelve mouths than those sisters. The
question has yet to be decided by the general
conference whether women may be licensed to
exhort and preach.

body OF a colored man named Adam
Christmas, aged "a years, who died at his
residence on Greeley street, Thursday
night.
DR.. s. L. West testified that he had
gone TO see Christmas, at the request of
the latter's son, and that the boy was to
afterwards call at his office for a pre-
scription, but did not do SO.
The Doctor further testified that he
might have recovered had he receive ed
proper care and attendance. The jury
rendered verdict of death from appo-
plexy, but Afterwards an attempt was
made 10 reconsider the vote by which
the verdict was adopted, so as to adopt
another to the effect that death was su-
perinduced by the lack Of proper care
and medical attendance. The attempt
however, failed.

ed yesterday morning before Magistrate

beaten, John, on being brought to the
bar of Justice, discovered to his astonish-
ment that two additional wives and one
sweetheart were present to confront him
with his wrong doing, and, turning as
white as a ghost, exclaimed "Good
God! If haven't made cursed fool
Of myself this time" and the evidence
fully justified the conclusion which Ohm
had suddenly arrived at. Nellie Will

but clung to 81 ,735 cash, which she had

THE ARMY BILL.

A VOTE REACHED IN THE SENATE AND
THE BILL IN THE PRESIDENTS HANDS.
WARRINGTON, April 25.-The Army
Appropriation bill passed the Senate
this afternoon just as it came from the
House, and was received with applause
on the Democratic side in the House
when 1t was returned there for enroll
ment. General Garfield intimated a
prompt veto when he answered the ap-
plause by declaring that those laughed
best who laughed last. The bill passed
the Senate by party vote, Mr.. DAVIS, OF
Illinois, vo!ing of course with the Demo-
crats, and giving the bill, with its pro-
hibitiou of the use of troops at the polls,
a majority of eleven votes. The bill has
reached the President already, having
been enrolled and signed by the presid-
ing officers of each house In open session
before the Senate adjourned till Monday
The prevailing belief among the Repub-
licans Is that the President will veto the
bill. indeed the epu phcan stalwarts OF
the House declare that there Is no doubt
OF it, but there are those who are on
good terms at the Executive Mansion
and who are equally stalwart in theii
Republican opinions who express the
belief that the Preslden, Will sign the
bill under protest on the ground that il
contains appropriat, for carrying OF
the Government and intlmating at the
same same time that ii the features of i
prohi biting the use of troops at the poll'
were in a separate bill he would sign tn,

then were made because the officer

showed by the record that but two of tn
entire number went South; that nearl
all remained in Washington and wer
loyal, and that some went at once int
the army. Furthermore, he showed tina
even the pages were all discharged
that all the changes were made by cat

and when Senator Saul ,bury asked hiI
