opened BY DR.. Stringfellow, Of Alabama,

generally opposed to the proposition. The
vote by diOceses was as follows: orty-
nine dioceses voting, a majority of tht cleri-
Gals in seventeen dioceses voted aye, the
majority voted no. in twenty-five q Geese
and ten dioceses were evenly divided. In
forty-four dioceses the majority of The lay
delegates in eleven dioceses voted aye, and
in twenty nine dioceses voted no. and in
four were evenly divided. The report of
the joint committee on liturglcal revision
was submitted and laid on the table to
await the action of the house of bishops.

Special Arrivals During the Week !

Two Of the main points to keep
in view if you want to succeed in
business are, have no old, shop
worn goods to show, but fresh,
new, desirable and attractive
merchandise arriving daily. or at
least weekly. The other point:
Have your prices low. We aim
to accomplish both, and the way
customers crowd our store daily
proves the above statement.
We receive daily by both ex-
press and freight large consign-
ments of merchandise for our re-
tail department. Having buyer
in New York all the year round
we are able to place before the
ladies of this great city all the
newest weaves. latest colorings

bottom prices. When you buy
cheap you can afford to sell

Fitting Tribute.

At the last meeting of the Minneapolis
Press club the following memorial. by the
ST. Paul Press club OH the death of Whit
ing p. Van Norman, was read:
In the death Of Whiting P. Van Norman,
member OF the Minneapolis Press club, one
of its brightest members was lost to the jour
nalstic profession in the Twin cities Mr..
Van Norman was personally known to many
members OF the st. Paul Press club, who had
been thrown into intimate association with
him in the many changes which co me with
peculiar frequency in the profession. BY
those of us who knew him, Mr. Van Norman
was esteemed and respected for his abilities
in his profession. and his worth as man.
With many members of the st. Paul club his
decease is a thing of personal regret. As an
organization the club desires to extend its
sympathy to his stricken friends, and TO the
Minneapolis club its coincidence in the loss OF
so valued a member and has taken formal
action to that effect.
