An Intsrestinr Meeting.

meeting in the interest of hygiene was
Held at the headquarters of the W. G. T.
U. yesterday at 1870 p. nj. Mrs. Bovee, su-
perintendent of hygiene for the District,
presided. The house was filled with old
and young, showing the interest felt in this
important subject. Mrs. BOvee understands
her department thoroughly aud urges the
importance of reform in dress and cooking.
Mrs. Deane gave an essay on dress 50 full Of
merit that it must have carried conviction
to all who heard il. An article, entitled
"Slaves of the Rolling Pip" was read by
Miss Emily Feltham, which was both hui
morous aud instructive. Miss Carrie Tur-
pin read an article, entitled "Chinese Foot
Binding and The American Corset" acom-
parison more truthful than complimentary
to American ladies. A deeD interest was
manifested in the subjects presented and an
animated discussion followed, in which
nearly all participated. Miss Mofliitt pre-
sided at the organ and the readings were in
terspersed with music.
Meetings for the further consideration Of
this subject win be held on The third
Wednesday of each month, to which all
ladies interested are invited.

Some points Of interest to pension attor-
neys and pension claimants were brought
out this morning in tho inquiry being con
Quoted by the House Committee on PEN
sions, Bounty and Back Pay. Mr.. Dawson,
who is tho appeal clerk of the Secretary of
the Interior, read decision Just rendered
by the Departments setting forth that
where one pension attorney is substituted
for another the claimant may designate any
one to act as his attorney or agent, or may
do so at any time without alleging any mis-
conduct or filing complaint against the at
torncy or agent designated to act in the
substitution or who may be acting where
there is no substitution. The pension at
torneys say this will be great hardship to
them, as it will allow an applicant to place
his case in the hands of an attorney or
agent, and when the case is ready for
adjudication, to discharge the attorney or
agent without cause, thus cutting them out
OF their fees.
Heretofore the agent could not be dis
charged without cause. The Commissioner
of Pensions and other officers in the ln-
terror Department are being examined by
the committee. The issue seems TO be the
transfer by Colonel N. w. Fitzgerald of u
largo pension claim business to George e
Lemon. Under tho decision cited Fitz-
gerald may, by the consent of his former
clients, resume his business.

The Bishop OF Maryland.

Two meetings of Protestant Episcopal
ministers were held in Baltimore yesterday,
and the subject of colored missions was fully
discussed. Bishop Elliott, of Western Texas,
preached on the subject in tho morning at
Grace Church, and last night Bishops Dud-
ley, of Kentucky, and Lyman, of North
Carolina, delivered addresses at Emanuel
Church. Bishop Paret presided at both
meetings, and in the afternoon had quite a
lengthy conference with his clergy. The
Woman's Auxiliary Society also held q
meeting yesterday. Bishop Psret proposes
not only to increase the efficiency of mission
work among the colored people in his dio.
cese, but to adopt some means of making all
tho missions independent of the board of
missions from which they have been receiv-
ing aid. 1t is probable that special collec-
tions will be taken up in all the churches
on some particular Sunday in each year.
The conference is attracting considerable
attention in church ciices, and much good
work is expected to result from ii.

Indian Rights and wrongs.

The meeting advertised in THE CRITICS
columns for Friday evening at the New
YoTk-Avenue Church will have something
to say upon these subjects worth hearing.
The cutting down by Congress of appro-
priations urgently needed, tho failure to
pay moneys due by treaty, the actual
starvation of 400 men, women and chill
dren of one tribe the last winter, are not
pleasant facts to contemplate by the great
body of American citizens. While the In-
dian problem has its difficulties many of
these could be met by the simplest acts
of justice. White Ghost, Medicine Bull
and La Flesche will be likely to give EN-
phasis to the speeches of General Arm
strong and White Ghost and others.

Taxing Church Property.

The Commissioners have again expressed
themselves on the matter OF taxation on
Church property. In the case of Ascension
Church, which has gone to Congress for re-
lief, the Commissioners have informed the
Committee on the District that the taxes
against the church accrued prior to
the edifice being occupied as place for di-
vine worship They say it is sound policy
TO insist on taxation on property of this
kind until it is used for divine worship, so
that II may not be used for speculative
purposes or diverted from an assumed in
tended purpose.

THE Woman's Suffrage Convention has
n ade mistake. The theological discus
sion, the attacks upon the Bible, the argu-
ment as to the equality of sexes from a
biblical standpoint, were as unfortunate as
they were unsatisfactory.
That anything could be accomplished by
such discussion could not have been ex-
rected that tue convention could agree
upon and announce its position in the
matter was no more probable than it was
desirable.
The women have enough to do that is
logical and practical. They are entitled to
and receive sympathy in their efforts and
praise for their energy, but discussions such
as this are unwise, unavailing, and can only
sow the seed of dissension and ill-feeling
and could not under any circumstances pro-
mote or rebound to the credit of tho cause.

Ten THOUSAND of the Mahdi's savage
rebel forces and negro riAemen have been
Iepulsed with great slaughter in the desert
by fifteen hundred troops, under General
Stewart. The English loss was not serious
in point of numbers, but among the dead
are one or two officers, well known and
loved in London's most fashionable clubs
and most aristocratic houses. The command
ing general narrowly escaped with his life,
his horse being killed by rifle shot.
The savages, six times as strong in num-
bers as the British troops and willy aud
skillful in the art of war, offered but poor
resistance to the superior discipline, arms
and tactics of the English troops, aud yet
the result brings sorrow to English homes
and the nation, and must be regarded as
a dearly purchased victory.
The advance to Khartoum by stages
marked with such events as this will be
memorable in history and immortalize its
martyrs, but will not reflect credit upon the
British Crown.
