WAR OF THE BISHOPS.
Evangelical Animasity About TO Burst
Forth Afresh.

Reading, Pa. Special
The war OF the bishops. which rent asun-
der the Christian Evangelical Association
of the United States. Is to be carried into
the camp-meetings of the denomination
this season. The animosities engendered
in the various ecclesiastical and civil
trials of the past year between Bishops
Esher and Bowman. with their adherents
on one side. and Bishop Dubbs. with his
adherents, on the other, are TO be revived
in Eastern Pennsylvania in the next few
days. Bishop Esher was the last of the
triumyirate of ruling bishops Of the asso-
citation TO be deposed from office. That
operation was accomplished by q
duly authorized trial committee
of fourteen ministers and elders in this city
last April, acting as the champions of
Bishop Dubbs, who had been ceposed
through the influence OF Bishops Esher
and Bowman q month before at Chicago.
Bishop Dabbs' friends in Pennsylvania
are legion, and. in fact, the whole denoUl-
ination in the East, with but few individ-
nal exceptions, Is practically solid for him.
Two weeks ago series of camp
meetings in the woods began in TINS
part Of the state under the auspices of the
Eastern conference. Beginning this week.

IN Milford circuit. over IN Chester coanty.
near HacKensack station. ami st Fleet
wood. in the upper part OF Berks- Another
viii &c held IN Royersford. Montgomery
county, and the last near Hsllertown,
Northampton county.
liz is announced that Bishop Esher in
tends coming East TO attempt to preside al
the camp-meetings yet 70 be held within
the jurisdiction OF the Eastern conference.
AT none of the meetings heretofore con-
Quoted did the war-like bishop appear, but
those who knew him best and have reason
TO remember his fighting qualities, declare
that il would be characteristic OF him 10
attempt TO invade the Dubbs sfronghold
here In Pennsylvania and undertake TO
manage the meetings IN bis own interest.
The leading Dubbs part,sans in this part
OF the state, chief among whom are the
Rev. Mr.. Hell. OF Allentown; the Rev.
Mr.. Chuhb. of Harrisburg. and the Rev.
Messrs. Haman and Woodring, of Read
ing. have held a conference on the subject
and have decided to prevent the invaron
of the Duhbs territory BY Bishop Esher.
They have taken legal advice. ana the mis-
ute Bishop Esher sets foot within the linn
its OF any OF the camps they will get out
an Injunction 10 restrain him. Some even
threaten that he viii be removed by force.
A few adherents of Bishop ESher in this
region assert that Bishop Esher viii pre-
side at the meetings If he chooses. and that
If he attempts to manage them he will
manage them. no matter what the opposi-
ton may do. Upon what basis Bishop
Esher, or, for that matter, either OF the
other Geposed bishops. should ieel him self

Real Cause of Boyle o'Reilly.. Death.


When l first saw him, in June. he was
discouraged and SAD; not for himself, for he
never made any personal eomplaint-and.
besides. he was pecuniariiy prosperous /;
but because OF the hopelessness of the con-
fict between generous ideaiism for the
good OF humanity, and that selfish iRdif-
ference which controls most individuals,
whether they belong TO the small class that
rules, or TO the great mass that pretends to
rule. vet in fact submits to the dictsiion OF
the few. Bowie 0'Reisly is said TO have
died from failure OF the heart Nv own
sincere belief is that he died. not from fail
ure OF the heart, but from the failure of So
ciety, and OF those who now parade SIS men,
to make room for a great and generous
heart which throbbed with good viii for

a man 10 mourn; Tor. in remembering
him. we shall learn TO hope for and pro-
duce other men ike him.

Minister of Justice. One Friday he fought his

soldiers that guarded the route of the Imperial

group about the Sultan's carriage appeared. he
began 10 bawl at the top of his voice Long

petition high above lis head. This unwont'd
noise, when etiquette prcscribes dead silence, al

an aide to receive the petition. Jacob thcn
turned to 90 away. but was instantly arrested
by the soldiers and he bitterly regretted his
