Changes in the Episcopal Prayer Bool

Changes in the Episcopal Prayer Book.
1t ia now made legal decision that
forming prayer, litany, and holy com
muni0n are distinct services, and can be
separately used. This before was mainly
an opinion Of the bishops. A large number
Of proper psalms for feasts and festivals
have been set forth. The selections used
a place OF che psalter for the day have
neen increased from ten to twenty. 1t is
made legal to sins hymns before and after
auy office. This hitherto was a liberty
constantly taken by clergymen, but it was
aot lawful. A number of verses have been
added to the Benedictus. 1t is no longer
permitted to any church to omit the
: erds, HE descended into hell,' in the
eEeed, though they may use the words IN
pisce Of it, HE went into the place of de-
parted spirits" The word ''again' is in
sacted in the creed, SO as to read, 1.-THE
Gtird day he rose again from the dead.''
On days other bnan Sunday, at evening
prayer, the minister, after the sentence
from Scripture with which the service be-
may pass over the exhorIation, con-
GeFeion asAa dissolution. and 60 directly to
49, Lords prayer, and SUNDAYS and all
IA rs be can at evening prayer omit the
exnortation, merely using in its place,
"a ct us humbly confess our sins to AL
mighty God.'' There are also added to
eyaning prayer two canticles which Epis-
copalians in America have long desired
she Magnificat (St. Luke l., 1855 and the
kunc Dlmittis (St. Luke H., 20 s3)-and
certain alterations for the canticles al
ready there are allowed for Lent, as those
penitential in character. The collect in
evening prayer, called Against Perils," is
very much changed to make it harmonic
with the beautiful language of the CORE
aponding collect in the English prayer
beck. Tighten our darkness, o Lord, -
end as soon as he has said that collect the
minister is at liberty to end the evening
peaYer with any prayer in the book which
I'D chooses.
The changes greatly shorten the service.
In bhe litany new petition is put, THAT
it gay please Thee to send forth laboreIs
5oto Thy harvest" and in the burial ser
vic8 after the lesson the use of the creed
anG fitting prayer is allowed. In the
0tf1se for holy communion very great re-
lief has been afforded. II there are two
eaasati ons in one day the saying of the
teG; commandments may be omitted from
bae aTsts and Che long exhortation, which
2naames SO much time, need only be SAID

And my cart rides on coral wheels.

On, the whale is slow, and the wheels need oil, E&

Ard they leave the sea for the sandy soil,

and he's lost his way in the sea,
But If must put my coat in pawn,

is still great curiosity to the people of
Washington. The other night at Al
baugh's the people in the audience
looked at her sitting in private box
as if she was wild animal. After the
play nearly the entire audience stood
in the lobby in double rows, the two
lines reaching from the auditorium
doors down the stairs, out the front
door. and even TO the carriage door.
When she came out they gapcd at her
and commented as if she was a profess
sional beauty. During the last few hot
afternoons a crowd of ladies, and men.
too, were seen sitting on the stone bal
ustrade running along the walk to the
steps of the White House. Inquiry
showed that they came TO get glimpse
OF Mrs. Cleveland when, she went to
her carriage for her drive.

Chicago Anarchists.

The argument which has been in progress
for some days before Judge Gary for a
new trial in the cases OF the Chicago
anarchists was finished Oct 7th, and
Judge Gary overruled the motion made
by the convicted conspirators for a new
trial. The court then granted the accused
an opportunity to speak before sentence
was pronounced and Spies, Schwab,
Neebe, Fischer and Lingg spoke Thursday
afternoon the remainder to follow Friday.
They all declaimed against the justice OF
the verdict against them, aud Spies, who
read his remarks from manuscript, COM
pared his rcbable death to that OF Christ.
All were defiant and denounced the court
jury, states attorneys, police and wit
nesses vehemently. Neebe concluded with
a wild appeal to Judge Gary to hang him
with the rest. Judge Gary allowed the
condemned canspirators large latitude in
speaking, and Parsons, the last one to ad.
dress the court, occupied five hours and
forty minutes. All the addresses, so far
as reported, produced the effect upon the
public mind confirming the propriety and
justness OF the verdict of the jury. Judge
Gary indulged oaly in brief review Of
the trial and awful crime committed and
pronounced sentence that Neebe be i'm
prisoned for Is years at Joliet, and that
each OF the other defendants, between the
hours of 10 q. M. and p. m., of December
3, be hung by the neck until he be dead.

The Garfield Monument.

Cleveland, o., special: The erection OF
the Garfield monument continues to
interest the people, and the matter has
been discussed very freely since the ex-
posure OF the queer work Of the trustees
and contractor in the building rof. the
shaft. 1t is understood that suits are soon
to be begun by subscribers to the fund to
compel the trustees of tho monument to
reveal the price agreed upon for its erec-
tion. They have been figuring on the cost,
basing their calculation on the claim that
some 5000 will be saved by the looping
off 75 feet at the top Of the monument
That would be $aG5.50 per foot. At that
rate the remaining i75 feet will cost
$46, ,G6i.f6. Allowing $4,000 for extras
about the base, and the $4,000 for interior
decoration, the sum total will be $9l Coz
They believe that the contract price will
not exceed $4,000.
