Bishop Keener claimed 10 be cousersa.
tive. Great battles. be said. had been fougn.
around these statements OF the ritual. Urea,
inteliects had contended here. He haa
asked many persons what baptism was. ne
bad heard a variety OF answers. ne
gave philosophical view OF baptism. lie
feared that ignorance OF the philosophy OF
The sacrament was at the bottom OF this
movement. He was opposed TO change.
Mr.. Peterson said be would not deny
ignorance on the part OF the commit
tee, but be was unable to discover any
cause for the expressions OF alarm about
the doctrines of the Church. The terms
the committee proposed were already In the
ritual. aud the change simply wished to
so place these terms tina. they would better
express the mind Of the Church. He
thought IL was more in keeping with me
Tenderness Of the Gospel TO speak Of child
az "sayed by grace" than as delivered
from wrath -; that It was more in harmony
IN speak OF Gods "goodness" saving
child and his "mercy" saving the adult
than 10 use "mercy" in connection with
the child and "goOdness" in connection
with the adult, as 1t now stands in the DIS
| cipline.
Rev. Mr.. Cameron. OF Mississippi. said
much OF the speaking had been irrelevant.
| That the committee had not proposed any
change that affected the doctrines OF the

were proper and noedful.
Rev. Sir. Whitehead, Of Virginls. re-

| ference was being consumed IN discussing

Bishop Kcener. IN reply to this, claimed
| that the right OF the bishops to be heard
was well established by precedents.
DR.. McFerrin supported the view OF the
| Bishop. He claimed that Bishop Asbury

| He was opposed TO the changes in the
| ritual proposed by the committee.
The report OF the committee, including
the amendments proposed In The ritual.

Dr.N,H.D. Wilson, Of North Carolina,
moved TO suspend the rules and take up out
OF lis order the report Of the Committee on

portant report, and he hoped the Confer
ence would act upon il at once.
The motion to suspend the rules was lost.
REvIsALs-BAPTIsN.
The Committee on Revisals reported in
favor of some verbal changes in the ritual
for baptism.
Some Of the members supposed that the
changes were intended In some way 10
affect the doctrinal teachings OF the Church
on the subject OF human deprayity.
Dr. MahOn said there seemed 10 be great
anxiety in some parts OF Church to change
the ritual, specially those portions having
reference TO deprayity aud the doctrine that
..by nature We are all the children of
wrath"
Dr. McFerrin laid he was very much Op.
posed TO charging these words that have
served the Church so many years IN eX-
messing lis doctrinai teachings on these
questions.
DIR. Edwards thought the committee had
moi gone far enough In the work OF reyisal.
II could not be successfully denied that
there was IN the ritual squirting towards
hap,ismal regeneration, which Is not In
accordance with the doctrine OF the Church.
He said Dr.. McFerrm was growing old-he
wa. sorry for him. Or. Edwards claimed

ward with il at the head OF the column.
[Applause.l
Dr. Walker. Of Kentucky, was opposed
10 changing the ritual, and held that the
words as they stand fairly express the
views of tbe Church on these doctrines.
Mr.. Peterson, Of Virginia, chairman OF
the committee, assured the conference that
the changes proposed involved no change
in the doctrine OF the Church.
DIR Rogers, OF the Baltimore Conference,
said that these changes were important or
they were not important. IL important.

Death OF Mrs. Jaceb A. Levy.

As announced in this paper Sunday,
Mrs. Jacob 4. Levy died at a late hour Sat
urday night. She had reached the advanced
age Of seyenty.seVen years. IL is with no
purpose Of mere panegyric that the Dis
match refers 10 this 4" Mother in Israel" a.
a model for our WomanhOod, for during her
long and well spent life she illustrated all
thc,e virtues which beautify human charac-
ter and hold oft an example worthy OF be-
Ing initiated. UnOstcntatiously she pur-
,ued the even tenor OF her way, and won
tie affections Of all who knew her by her
kindlinCss, sincerity, and benevOlence.
IL was. however, in the domestic
circle that she shone with that lOftiness OF
principle which has become a rich inher-
lance TO her children and her children's
children. In her coniugal relations she
was a wife who was a faithful partner o.
the husband OF her youth, sharing with
him the JOYS and sorrows incidental TO all
human conditions; and when, eight years
ago, the hand Of Death separated them she
bowed rcsignedly 10 the will OF Him IN
whom her trust was indestructlble, and
submitted with devout plety TO the fiat,
because her stricken heart recognized
that il was 1.-THE Lord who gave and
il was the Lord who had taken away
As mother her tender care was uncessing,
and her good example fortified and en-
forced the beautiful lessons her lips taught
Asa sister her love was underwriting and
constant. As a friend. loyal and sincere.
never failing In her steadiast regard under
any cilcumstan ces. From all who knew
her she won golden opinions, because Of
her charity OF heart and act; because OF the
purity OF her life, because OF the truth
which was her prominent Characteristic:
"Let her deeds praise her in the gates."
Untv her rest she has gone in peace.
