WASHINGTON, July 81. : Today is
what is known as yellow envelope
day in the census office. No less than
800 Of these envelopes have been dis.
tributed, each one containing a brief
announcement that the services of the
persons named are no longer required
by Uncle Sam. 1t is not often that such
a large discharge takes place at one time
in a government department, in fact not
oftener than once in ton years, when the
one or two, rapidly swells and expands
until within the space of year the
clerical force numbers over 5000. As
the business of the office is gradually
disposed of the contraction of the force
begins. About Aug 10 400 more clerks
will be discharged.

with imposing ceremonies. There were a
number of speeches and prayers and
songs commemorating the happy event.
The building is octagonal in shape and
located in the center of Pie grove. II
will seat upwards Of 1000 people, and
its cost is about 81 200. About half the
sum has been raised, and the balance
has been pledged by the yonng peoples
societies of the various churches. To
days services are devoted to the con-
sideration of home mission work.
PERKAsIE, Pa, July 3l.-The big
Evangelical camp meeting was properly
opened in PerlIa5ie Park yesterday. The
attendance is greater than ever before
in the ten years history Of the camp.
There are forty permanent cottages and
as many tents, all of which are occupied
by members of the church from Phila-

hem, Allentown, Reading, Pottsville,
besides points nearer home. There is a
marked feeling against Bishop Bowman
and his followers.

work.

them to the Paoli monument grounds,
where the annual encanpment is in
progress. The main features of the

CHESTER HEIGHTS, Pa, July 31.-The

day, many of the leading third party men
and women Of Delaware andC Chester coun.
ties being on hand. There were also here
ten colored Sunday schools from Ches-
ter, West Chester, Media and Philadel.
phia. The colored folks are not a part
of the temperance programme, and their
appearance here is II mistake upon the
part of the camp ground management.
They first rented the grounds to the
Prohibitionists, and then, losing sight
of the fact, rented them again to the
colored people.
