Mrs. Langtry.

Mrs. Langtry is the daughter of the Rev.
William Corbett La Breton, dean of the island
of Jersey and rector of St. Heliers, and she
came to be called the Jersey Lily through Mil
lais's famous painting of that title, for which
Lille LaDgtry stood as the model. Her hus-
band is an Irishman. He met her while on a
yachting trip to the Channel islands He is
now in this country, having an interest in som @
OF the Western mines. At home Lille La
Breton was village favorite, through her
kindly nature rather than by her proposing
face, and while her photographs are scattered
broadcast it is doubtful if the whole island Of
Jersey could muster more than half doz-
en-. Her fame has been acquired since she
went to London. Jersey is the paradise
OF the English Channel It's wonderful
growth of Roses and other flowers,
would alone render it an object of in
terest Its fertility is so notable that the Lon
don Punch once said that the whole island
should be conveyed to the mainland in flower
potsl But apart from its beauty jersey is like
~ to be best known to fame for some time as
the birthplace of Mrs. Langtry. Shortly after
her debut in society she became regnipg
queen of beauty, sharing honors with Mrs.
Langtry first gave evidence of histrionic talent
IN series of theatrical tableaux given private
~ IN society. Her first semi-public perform
ance was IN aid of deserving London charity.
III was witnessed by the elite, and realized
very considerable sum- Her success was SO
great that she decided to adopt the stage as a
means of livelihood.

So far as can be gathered from the reports
the Rev. Mr.. Green, who has been confined
in Lancaster Castle for the past three years
as punishment for persisting in ritualistic
practices despite the inhibition of his Bishop.
has come off with flying colors. He would
neither make an apology for the past nor
pledge for the future, and yet it is announced
that the government, to whom he has long
been source of embarrassment, has ordered
his unconditional surrender. This shows
the anomaly of State Church in free
country.

ACCORDING to all accounts, chat mysteri-
GUS parsonage who is darkly described in
transatlantic dispatches as the False Proph-
ct is having everything his own way in the
territory where his operations are being
carried on. 1t is said that his supporters
are steadily upon the increase, and that they
are Inspired with fanatical fury which has
hitherto been irresistible AS he is march
ing in the direction of Cairo, and is subju-
eating the country through which he passes,
it is just possible that the English will have
to do some more fighting before their posi-
tion in Egypt is firmly and safely estab-
lished. They will doubtless, how ever, be
ready to accommodate the False Prophet
with all the fighting he desires, for they are
unquestionably determined and prepared to
maintain their present supremacy in Egypt
at all hazards and at any cost.

ANOTHER mysterious disappearance has
proved. after all, to be matter of the most
prosaic character. Mr.. Clapp, who tele-
graphs his safe arrival in England, seems to
have been one of the large army who leave
things till the last moment and sometimes
get left themselves. The unnoticed depar-
ture of the pilot boat made him a prisoner
on an ocean steamer, in consequence of a
few last words with his friend in the saloon
of the vessel. All is well that ends well,
but the anxiety of his friends and partners,
though now relieved, must have been of
particularly painful nature during the ten
days or more when he was utterly unable to
communicate with them. The moral OF
which is, never procrastinate.

The Teiephone Business.

In an exhaustive article on the telephone
system of the United States, in the last
number of Bradst1eefs, attention is called
to the fact that a very rapid consolidation
of the various companies is going on over
the country. In June last there were 1S9
of such companies in existence, which have
since been reduced to eighty ninety
eight wiped out in three months. All this
has been done very silently and indicates
that, whether the current rumor that the
the bottom of it or not, the telephone
is likely to be worked sfor all it
is WORTH in more senses than one. The
number of exchanges already established
in the United States is 717-an increase
of forty five since June. The most import
ant of all the companies is the Lowell,
which now has control of ell the telephone
wires in Maine,l Massachusetts, New Hamp-
shire, and Vermont, with the exception of
those in Boston and the southwestern cor
ner of Massachusetts and sin the small
towns of Laconia and Plymouth, in
New Hampshire, and Montpelier, Yer
mont. Next comes the Metropolitan COM
pany of New York city, and third stands
the Chicago company, while fourth is the
Southern Bell company, which owns nearly
all the ''exchanges' in tie Southern states.
The charges for the use of the telephone
vary greatly in different sections of the
country. A payment of SO much per an
mum is the rule, but at a few places toll,
from ten cents up, is levied on each message
sent. The Peoples Telephone company,
which claims that telephoning was in COM
mon use in Pennsylvania before any of
the existing patents were applied for, is
the great obstacle in the way of tie con-
solidating movement. and il this company
should win its case in the courts there
would be a terrible tumble in the tele-
phone stocks now in the mark ct.

BAPTIST MISSIONS,

annual Meeting of Baptist Missionary

The annual meeting of the various Bap-
fist Missionary societies of Minnesota con-
vened at the First Baptist church yester-
day. Rev. II. G. Wood was elected to the
chair and G. NJ. Patterson was elected Sec

of the state. The apportionment was the
pastor of each church in the diocese and
one delegate for every fifty members.
The opening sermon was delivered by
Rev. F. E. Bostwick, of the PASTORAL union.
It proved scholarly and was listened to
with interest by the convention.
Rev. j. G. Hall followed in carefully
prepared and well read essay, which to-
gether with few business
matters occupied the entire morn
In the afternoon the essay was inform
ally discussed by the various delegates in
attendance. At the conclusion OF the dis
cussion sermon was delivered by the
Rev. NJ. D. SCHUYLER.
The leading features of the evening ses-
sion, which was generally attended by Wis
itors as we'll as the members of the con-
vention, was a fine and instructive sermon
by Rev. N. F. Hoyt, and an address by
Rev. M. D. Shuller. The latter was respond
ed to by Alderman Geo. A Pillsbury, the
late president.
This mornings session will be occupied
by reports of the missionary work as pros
ecuted throughout the state, The reports
will be verbal, and by delegates.
This afternoon an address will be deliv-
cred by Rev. j. N. Murdoch, DID,, of Bos-
ton, the corresponding secretary of the
American Baptist union.
This will be followed by papers and dis
cussions upon the spiritual interests of the
churches.
In the evening addresses will be deliver
ed by DR.. Haight, of Chicago, and Rev. N.
Whitney, upon home missionary work.
