To-day the general convention of the
Protestant Episcopal church meets in Chi
cago. It's sessions will be of unusual inter
est Three questions of special Importance
will be presented for decision. The first is
the acceptance or rejection of the revised
prayer book reported by a committee six
years ago, considered in 1883 and remitted
for further action to the convention of this
year. So many of the diocesan conventions
have instructed against the proposed revis-
ion, however, that the question is regarded
as already eettled. Two other matters of
special interest are the establishment of
courts of appeal Tor the trial of persons
charged with acts deserving ecclesiastical
censure, and the question of Christian unity.

The insurance commissioner of the State Of
Missouri has taken the peculiar ground that
a title insurance company, which some of the
citizens of that commonwealth are endeavor-
ing to establish, ''would be against public
policy, for it would encourage people to be
careless with their titles" This is a queer
idea, even for Missouri man.
The Democratic nomination for Secretary
of State does not seem to grow more popular
in this region. The indications are that
Hon. L. M. Hubbard, the Republican nomi-
nee, is going to have a large vote. It is rec

the office, he has much personal popularity,
and the Democratic nomination does not de-
tract from his strength.
Rev. George Lansing Taylor, who is well
known in this city, in a letter published in
the Light speaks of the Republican nominee
for governor of Connecticut as follows: ga
temperance man, a recent parishioner of
mine, who was my mainstay in building the
Jesse Lee Memorial church in Ridgefeld, one
of the most beautiful country churches in
New England. Mr.. Lounsbury is man
whom temperance men can vote for with

interest, ranging from a scientific disser-
tation upon natural gas to sage lecture
to the High School girl upon the use of

regularly as the hands of the Office clock
point to half-past eleven, comes the same
prUfape query from the composing room,
Where in - is Wilson's stuff 1t

ago" But that don't trouble Q. o., and
his six-foot-three frame may be seen ev

theology. medicine, philosophy and near
