The Color Line i'm the Church.
VIEWS OF THE BISHOP OF TIE SOUTH cARoLn

A Charleston, S. c. especially, May 5, says: The
bishop and most OF the clerical delegates TO the
recent diocesan convention have returned, but
IKE the seceders they are reticent. The bishop Is
exported as saying that the whole matter will
have to 60 before the general convention, which
meets in 1889. There are no prospects OF a SETTLE
ment here. The clergy have surrendered 10 the
extent OF consenting TO separation OF the races
In the church Organization, but the colored
churches will not consent. Hence, there arise
additional complications. In an address TO the
laity the bishop said:
"In this contest over the privileges OF our order
which has been so bitterly waged for a long time
we have good reason TO believe that you have no
real objection to The privilege Claimed, hut that
the reason OF your stubborn opposition L. that,
q consequence OF the exercise OF this privilege
persons Of color are admitted TO seats IN our CON-
vention. Now, as a matter OF fact, we agree with
you perfectly that the association or persons OF
color in our legislation s very objectionable and
to be avoided II possible; and therefore, while In
ststing on our clerical privilege we Will do all In
our power to obviate this consequence or IL 70
which you so strenuously object. and which our.
selves deplore. We believe that the colored
churchmen themselves concur In this view. and,
while we cannot compel them TO form q separate
organization we will invite them 10 do DO. ana we
believe they will comply"

Ter place. when, glancing over morning
paper, bis eye fell upon piteous appeal
to the good people of that city to come to
the aid of the childreu's home that was
about to be abandoned John is 6 father
and grandfather and the thought of
four score helpless babies being thrown
out upon the mercies of cold world was
too much for his generous nature. CALI
ing his manager he said: Here Is a
chance to show what we would do with
the earth if we had it. Give them a
benefit, not of a quarter or half, but the
entire receipts" The matter was sub
mitted to one of the secret societies who
in connection with the christian ladies
took the benefit in charge. Tickets sold
rapidly; many capitalists not to be out
done by the comedians hberality, psit
800 for seats. The theatre was crowded
and the curtain went up on an audience
representing over $1,000. every penny Of
which was turned over to the home. The
history of the stage does not furnish {
nobler or more generous act.

Loyett & Johnson's equine and canine
paradox opened its engagement ut Har
per's theatre last evening. The troupe is
composed of fourteen ponies and about
fifty dogs, all so finely trained that they
do all but speak. and one or two of the
dogs make a good stagger at that. The
performances are all entertaining and
amusing and are given under the direc-
ton of Prof. Staub. The most novel and
at once interesting features were The
visit of Mr.. and Mrs. Benedict" an act
performed By the dogs Benedict, 3"
king" and Count" The backing act
by the ponies Romeo" and Juliet" the
waltzlng act by the ponies 'Dottie Dim
pie and Eureka. the teeteriDg per:or>
nance of the ponies Sour Drop" and
Juliet, the revolving pyramid By twelve
dogs, and the one BY FIVE ponies and
and twenty-five dogs, and bJ far the
most marvellous. the tight rope walking
feat by the dog King" The natural
persistency of this animal and final
success sfter falling several times when
he had almost accomplished it. was won
derful and brought forth enthusiastic ap-
plause. The programme is crowded will

The entertainment to be given for the
benefit of the High School piano, at
Harper's Theatre next Tuesday night by
the famous Imperial quartet, of Chicago,
will be one of the most select and in
every way cultured entertainments of
the season. A very worthy cause will be
aided by patronizing it.
There is very pretty and attractive
winter scene IN one of the show windows
of the Golden Eagle emporium. The
view shows snow palace, a skating sur
face with cracks in the ice and danger
signs, a vast field of snow. toboggan
slide, snow man, etc. The arrangement
is very neatly designed and realistic in
appearance.
