Women In tho Church.

The Presbyterians are following the exam.
pie OF other Protestant Churches In consid-
ering the propriety OF reviving the order oil
deaconesses. 1t does not appear that there
is any demand among Presbyterian women
for such offices; but as they constitute
the great majority of the communion, and
are distinguished by their unquestioning
faith and religious ZEAL it is serious waste
OF energy to leave them unemployed In the
practical labors OF evangelization.
1t has been demonstrated that women are
capable OF wise and very effective executive
management Miss GRACE DODGE, Miss
SCHUYLER, Miss RosALIE BUTLER, and Miss
HELEN IsEIIN have shown remarkable
abilities in that respect: and in the Episcopal
and Roman Catholic Churches there are sis
terhoods that are conducted with n degree
OF administrative genius which commands
the admiration Of men.
Yet the Presbyterians hesitate about
bringing women In rs allies in this great
field. They are afraid OF Remaining their
communion. II the Professionals begin with
deaconesses they are likely to end with
Sisters OF Charity. with nunneries and
monastlcism. II women are to be set apart
for the offices Of the Church. the experience
of the Episcopaians shows that they will in
evitably become brides OF the Lord; and
Professionalism will undergo a change that
will be radical. Women will make larger sac
rifces for religion than men are prepared to
offer. They will dismiss all other am
billions than the ambition Of serving JESUS.
They will be class by themselves, chaste,
devoted, and wholly concerned in the labors
Of religion.
We do not wonder. therefore, that the
Presbyterians hesitate about establishing
such sisterhoods. They mean revolution
n the character OF their religious system
which will be complete.

Progress in Boston.

Inc ingenious residents OF the quaint and
interesting old town of Boston are just now
enjoying an opportunity to study the work
ings OF the recently enforced Massachusetts
liquor law, which obliges each customer OF a
rum shop to sit down at table while order
Ing and imbibing drink. The former con-
Vivial way OF standing abreast OF bar has
been entirely done away with; and the di-
vertlng spectacle is now presented in BOs-
ton OF large crowds of thirsty Yankees in
dustrlously engaged In testing the law, and
at the same time In passing upon the rela-
tive merits OF Medlord rum and Buzzard's
Bay cider. 1t was originally supposed by
the cold-Water advocates of this law, that one
effect OF its enforcement would be- to reduce
the aggregate amount Of drinking; but such
is the quaintness and oddity OF the ordinary
Bostonian, 30 strong his desire to cir
cumvent and thwart the law without openly
breaking 1t, and 80 great his eagerness to
differ from his neighbors as a matter OF per-
sonal satisfaction. that the amount OF in
temperance has increased; and. what Is
worse, it seems to be still increasing.
The law requires drinker to take some
thing To eat at the same time that he calls
Tor his liquor. Accordingly. the inventive
Bostonians have hit upon the odd notion OF
taking crackers and olives. These, washed
down with glass Of rum or ancient rye,

whining and twitching OF the heels among
the faithful. They don't know how the thing
is going to work. and they feel that the air Of
the Hole into which Governor HILL has
dumped them is very close and unpleasant
The general impression left unon the mind
by study OF the proceedings OF the committee
Is that there is going to be flrst-class
"stompinR out OF tail feathers" among the Re-
publican brethren next fall.

The Rival Sons.

We confess that we are not fully informed
respecting the political differences or genoa
logical distinctions separating the Sons OF
the Revolution from the Sons OF the Amer
lean Revolution. The two societies have
an independent, and, apparently, an antago-
nistic existence
There are now before Congress not less
than three bills for the incorporation of the
Sons Of the American Revolution. The first
was introduced by Senator HoAR more than
month ago. and was referred to the Com
mittee on the Library. The second was
introduced few days later by Senator
VANCE. There was some difference Of opinion
as to whether the bill ought to go to tho
Committee on Military Affairs. or to the
Committee on Revolutionary Claims, or to
the Committee on the District OF Columbia,
or to the Committee on the Library; and
Senator CoCKRELL ventured to inquire
whether the aforementioned committee had
assumed jurisdiction to incorporate tho
descendants Of Revolutionary sres. Mr.
EvARTs, as Chairman Of the Committee on
the Library. replied that 1t had. Tho third
bill on the subject was introduced in the
House by Mr.. McADoo.
Then Mr.. EvARTss Library Committee
gave hearing to the American Sons-thus
designated to distinguish them from the
simple Sons-and thanks to the paternal
care OF the venerable jurlsconsult, a bill of
incorporation was perfected. When 1t came
up In tho Senate in the regular order OF
business on April 20 Mr.. INGALLS, demanded
why the society should be Incorporated I'M
DER special act OF Congress, when the
American Sons already possessed the right
to incorporate under the laws of any State.
or under the general law of Congress- In the
District OF Columbia. He also wanted to
know why the bill provided that the Ameri-
can Sons should be permitted to accumulate
property In the District to the extent of
$4,000. Mr.. EvARTs's reply Is worth print
ing as specimen OF broad but uninforminR
eloquence:
"Ths bill itself shows the general patriotic RurpoSeA
