The capitol commission played with the
Maine architects day and then adopted the
design of Architect Spofford of Boston, as II
was practically foregone conclusion from
the first that they would do. Architect
Coombs of Lewiston, is quoted as expressing
the opinion that the awarding of the job to
an architect out of the State is an insult to
Maine architects who should have been
given chance to compete. As the Portland
architects did not expect much considera-
tion they are probably not disappointed.
Perhaps Mr.. Coombs may be awarded the

ST. LOUIS. Oct. "a very sensational
event occurred at late hour last night in
which an unusually bright and attractive
young woman of thirty years was the chief
actor. Up to about year ago Mrs. Emily
Howard was the stenographer and private
secretary of Mr.. L. C. Simmonds. president
of the Simmonds Hardware Company, and
it is said that she performed her duties
with exceptional ability, but for some un-
explained reason she lost her place. just
before 12 o'clock last night the head watch
man of the house heard three pistol shots in
the Office of the firm, aud on Fastening to
the place found Mrs. Howard lying ON the
floor with wound in the left breast, in

son in the Office, She was removed to st.
Luke's Hospital, and will not die. 1t is
said that Mrs. Howard visited the store
last evening and secreted herself until the
hour named. when she made the attempt on
her life.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2.-The Socialist national
convention spent the morning in trying to
get ready to do something. For an hour or
so it was all in tangle. There were more
motions and amendments and points of

trouble was over the recommittal of the
platform, which was finally recommitted,

Triennial Convention Of the Protestant Epis-
copal Church of America.
NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-The General Conven-
tion of the Protestant Episcopal Church of
America, held every three years, opened
this morning in st. Georges Church, Stuy-
yesant's square. This is looked upon as one
of the most notable conventions ever held
by the church in this country. This is the
centennial and anniversary of the adoption
of the constitution of the Protestant Ep1s-
copal Church, and of the holding of the
first General Convention, as prescribed by
that constitution. 1t is also notable from
the number of important subjects to come
up before the convention. One of the ques-
tions to be settled is the proposed change of
the name of the church, many being op-
posed to the present name. Another i'm
portant question is that of proportional
representation. There are also eighteen
resolutions proposing alterations and ad-
ditions in the Book of Common Prayer"
which were adopted at the Chicago conven-
tion three years ago, and which will come
up before the present convention for final
action. The General Convention consists of
two houses-the house of bishops, number
ing forty bishops and the house of depu-
ties. consisting of over 400 lay and clerical
delegates, two of each from each diocese.
The convention opened to- day with re-
hgi Gus exercises, the regular morning COM
munion service being celebrated. At IL
o'clock every seat In the church was occu-
pied. While the large assemblage sat
patiently waiting the opening of the serv-
ice. there rose softly, at first and then
growing stronger. the clear voice of st.

marched down the center aisle to the en-
trance and were joined by several of the
clergy of the church In clerical robes.
Meanwhile the forty bishops, comprising
the house of bishops, had assembled in the
Memorial House, on Sixteenth street, and
from it they marched in procession. clad in
their silk gowns. lawn sleeves and other
insignia of their episcopal dignity. They
were met at the entrance to the church by
the clergy Of the committee on arrange
ments and the choir and mem
bers. The choir, singing q pro-
cessonal, marched slowly back to the
chancel, followed by the bishops. The lat
ter. on arriving at the chancel, took seats
within it. At their head there walked

BISMARCK, n. D., Oct. 2.-Destructive
prairie fires have been raging in Mclean

last two days. The flames were driven by at
the speed of sixty miles an hour. The town
of Washburn had a narrow escape. the
flames reaching within the limits. The
citizens turned out en- masse, even the
women working with desperation. The
flames extended for miles ON either side of
the town, and the prairie. as far as the eye
can reach, is black and desolate. Many of
the farmers lost all they had. but there
will be no suffering, as the people of the
valley will give them all necessary assist
