AS soon as the house met, Mr.. Spinola

on the bill reviving the rank of general
of the army for the benefit of Lieut.. Gen.
Sheridan. Mr.. Kilgore of Texas OBJ
iected. A few nainutes later Mr.. Mills
of Texas asked in the name of Confed-
crate soldiers, living or dead, that the
house consider the bill. Mr.. Kilgore per-
sisted in his objection.
After a brief delay Mr.. Spinola tried to
call the bill up. MR. Kilgore withdrew
his objection, but Mr.. Oates of Alabama
renewed it. Finally MI. Breckenridge
asked that the bill be considered, saying
he was glad to AVE the opportunity to
ask the votes of all in the chamber to
give the crown1ng wreath to the great
soldier in his dying hour. After brief
speeches landing Gen. Sheridan and urg-
ing immediate action, by Mr.. Cox of New
York n Mr.. Kelly of Pennsylvania,
the bill wasSpassed by a viva voce vote,
Mr.. Oates Of Alabama going on record as
opposing it.
The house then went into committee
of the whole on the tariff bill with the
understanding that debate on the first
/ paragraph should be limited to forty
minutes. Mr.. Holman Of Indiana spoke
briefly in favor Of cheap lumber.
The vote was then taken on the Adams
amendment, changing the date for the
bill to go into effect to Jan. 3, 1889, and
1t was re~jected-yeas 81, nays 118.

l2-year-old girl, was stricken down
with measles, which finally developed
into a dangerous type of dysentery. A
regular physician attended her and soon
had the disease under control. AT this
Juncture Miss Matte Gordon, claiming
to be a faith-healer, appeared at the
girls bedside and soon induced her ia
leave Off the DOCTORS medicine and adopt
the faith remedy. The mother protested,
but the child, encouraged by miss Cor
don, refused to take the DOCTORS medi-
cine. Finally the family recalled the
regular physician, but it was too late and
the unfortunate girl died. When
last heard from Miss Gordon was in
Charleston conducting a "holiness'' re-

A LIVELY SYNOD SESSION
CHURCH SOCIAL AND OTHER cARNAt
METHODS OF OBTAINING FUNDS.

A Remarkable Report on Systematic Re-
nefcence Made at the Reformed Presby-
terian Synod at Pittsburg-The Color
Line Drawn on "a Minister.
~aPITTsBURG, June 2.-At the Reformed
Presbyterian synod the report that a bill
is now pending in congress asking that
postal service be discontinued on the
Sabbath day, occasioned much rejoicing.
In further Pursuance of the Sabbath OBJ
seryanoe idea, a resolution was adopted
shat the church sessions be directed to
prosecute, by the proper discipline of the
church, members who publish advertise
ments in papers issued on Sabbath
The discussion on the report of the
committee on systematic beneticence was
extremely animated, md was finally re-
committed for revision. The report
started out by defining the words, 'tFor
Chriss's Sake,n as meaning the true
principles of Christian liberty, and went
on to bitterly denounce church socials,
entertainments and other carnal methods
of obtaining funds for religious chari-
table ends, stating the giver sacrifices his
conscience as tnouBn ne mad Deen Sacrl-
ficing to the Lord, when in fact he was
only serving his belly. This cripples
and kills che true spirit of liberality. 1t
Is too much like bringing the price of
a dog or the hire of a harlot as an offer
ing to God"
The latter sentence called forth vigor-
GUS denunciation from Rev. j. N. Car
son of Brooklyn, and many others. The
law requiring all adherents of the church
to give to the cause one-tenth of all their
earnings was endorsed by the committee
and was confirmed by the synod.
A sensation was caused just previous
to noon adjournment by the statement of
Rev. d.. S. Ferris of Sparta, Illinois, that
Thursday, at noon, Rev. Matthews of
Illinois, accompanied by Rev. G. NJ. Ell

informed Rev. Elliott that If he wanted
