missaI from West Point.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-POOr Logan's
disappointment is embittered by what
was practically the dismissal of his only
son from the Military Academy. Logan
hoped great things from tbs son. Young
Logan is weak and wild. He has taken
advantage of his fathers position to
behave badly at West Point. His bad be.
havlOr increased as the campaign went on
The West Point authorities bore with him
rather than create a scandal while the
canvass was pending, but he crowned his
folly by breaking out of the guard house
IN which he had been quietly confined
for a misdemeanOr and getting royalty
drunk at a neighbOring hotel. He was
promptly offered a chance to resign. His
mother is almost heart-broken.

The Enciish Church.

LONDON, Nov. 15.-The Times this
morning devotes its leading article to the
celebration at St. PauPs yesterday IN
honor of the centennial anniversary of
the conservation of the first bishop of the
American Episcopal Church. In the
course of this it says: elf ever it is
separated from the state the Church
of England may learn from the American
precedent that it need not fear extinction
or humiliation. The American church
has set an example which the English
church would do we'll to initiate in ell
gaging the services of laymen on an equal
footing with the clergy" The Times be-
lieves that yesterdays cOmmemOratiOn
services will do much TO promote the
spirit of good will between the two great
branches of the Anglican church.

and effective in the discharge Of

mlsused their positions for party or political

litical reasons. OF course, have no authority
