THE TALK OF THE DAY.

The alleged drift toward the Episcopal Church is
not viewed with pleasure by some Epscopallans, as
the following from "The Living Church, indicates :
Many Churchmen will breathe sigh Of relief AZ tho
news Of tho acquitnl OF Dr. Briggs at his recent trial
fer herc,y. There was rumOr which had an air OF
probability that upon being convicted and dismissed
from the Presbyterian ministry, the professor and his
friends were likely to seek admission into the Church.
Aside from the question Ct his views on the subject
OF Inspmtion Eschatoogy and the like, there Is a
growing feeling that II will not rebound to the lasting
benefit Of tho Church to convert IL into cave of
Adullam."

ton, the Judge of the qualifications of its men,

A course Of sermon-lecturcs was begun last
night in the Church OF the Covenant which will
attract more than ordinary attention. The
general subject is "The Bible and Modern
Thought" and the opening lecture was given by
Dr. McIlvane, the pastor of the church. The
other lecturers are to be Professor Briggs, Pro-
fessor Francis Brown, Professor Marvin r.
Vincent, Dr. Lyman Abbott DR.. 4. B. Coe,
Dr. 4. J. +. Rehrends and DR.. J. NJ. Ludlow.
Professor Briggs's three lectures will perhaps
arouse the greatest degree Of interest, as from
their subjects" The Bible and the Reason"
"The Bible and the Church "Tho Bible and
Inerrancy"-it may be inferred that he will
traverse not little of the ground on which he
would have based his defence had he been put
Oh trial for heresy.

lnfee weeks before the meeting or congress
the Speakership contest has attained such stage
that it can only be inadequabely described as
animated. If things 60 on as they have been
going, it is difficult to conceive of the state Of
mind that will be reached by the partsans of
the various candidates, say, fortnight hence.
As too many cooks spoil the broth, so too large
a Democratic majority in the House has led to
wrangng and mudslineing that are almost with
out parallel. The Democratic "happy family"
is an interesting, albeit not an edifying, spec
tacle.
Letters from several cities in the State, which
are grouped together on another page, throw
some light upon the causes which led to the de-
feat Of the Republicans in the recent election.
One Of these, by commo0 consent, was the lavish
use Of money by the Democracy. Another fact
pointed out by number of keen observers is
the need of better organization in the Republi-
can party. That subject should receive serious
attention without delay, in order TO put the
party in first-c9ss form for the greater contest
OF next year.
The total eclipse was a total failure, so far
as New-York and its neighboIhood were con-
cerned, for clouds concealed the earths satellite
hours before and during the whole time that the
observation of the moon took place. There
was no repining, however-at least on the part
of the people at large, though the astronomers
perhaps felt twingeS OF disappontment-for the
clouds had in them the promise and potency of
rain. and consequent relief from the threatened
water famine. The pinch of the reduced supply
will doubtless be felt in many parts Of the city
to-day, but the Weather Bureau holds out the
practical certainty of rain before to-day is over
as a storm is approaching from the west, and
New-York is in its track. Unfortunately, the
rainfall is not likely to be heavy, and the need of
extreme economy in the use OF water will not be
removed at once
The interview which our Albany core
spondent has had with Senator Saxton is inter-
esting and Illuminating. Mr. Saxtons name is
inseparably associated with our Ballot-Reform
law, and it will crafty every lover Of honest
elections TO learn that at the earliest moment
next winter he will introduce in the Senate an
amendment providing for the blanket ballot
and doing away with the paster lie will also
seek to amend the Corrupt Practices Act by
providing that political committees shall give
account of their expenditures, and will further
push the movement for transferring contested
election cases TO the courts. Mr.. Saxton frankly
confesses his disappointment at the workings
of the Ballot law as it stands but of course
that law was makeshift and compromise to
q considerable extent Concerning The proposed

Officials of the Chicago & Northwest
ern road say that the business of that
road is being greatly interfered with in
Nebraska and Dakota by the Indian
troubles. All the business in that terri
tory is practically at a %standstill, and the
agents report that uothing can be done in
the way of procuring traffic until peace is
restored.

THE CITY
some Provisions of the New Law
Which AppIy--NO Poll Tax
Necessary to be Paid.

The bill introduced n the senate by
Mr.. Robins regarding preliminary pro-
ceedings aud registration of electors prior
to a municipal election has become a law
Some of its provisions are as follows and
are Of interest at the present time. All
persons who have registered either during
the registration period Immediately pre-
ceding the said city or town election, or
who have registered less than two years
before such an election during a regular
registration period for county elections.
and who would be qualified at that time to
vote at a county election in a precinct,
shall be entitled to vote at such city or
town election in the precinct in which
they are registered. Provided, That
such electors are actual residents of the
incorporated city or town in which they
offer to vote.
All electors who registered previous to
such city or town election shall be entitled
to vote at all election precincts in which
they are registered until the next regular
period for the registration before a county
election.
The bill provides that whenever the
procedure of conducting municipal
elections is not fully provided for by law,
it may be supplemented by ordinance of
the incorporated city or town in which an
election is held. 1t also provides hat all
elections of cities and towns which shall
be held within a period, after the taking
effect OF the act, of less than the time
therein presented for registering and pre-
pairing for an election, shall take place
Notwithstanding the time therein specified,
and the preliminary proceedings including
registration shall be done as soon as
possible after the passage of the act, and
before the election, and the proceedings
held hereunder shall be as effective and
regular as if made within the time aud in
the manner prescribed by the act
A bill amending the election law has
passed the house and will probably pass
tbs senate and become a law before
election day allowing those who by
absence or sickness are unable to register
to swear in their votes on election day by
making oath as to their qualifications as
voters. The registry agents will hold
sessions at the city hall all day today
when all legal voters not previously
registered may be registered for the city
elections. There is no poll tax quail
fcation.

As United States Marshal Rankin was
crossing Front street toward the depot. a
runaway team came around the corner by
the Rawlins market. MI. Rankin saw
the team, made a couple of jumps and
thought he was out of the way, but the
wagon tongue was down and both horses
vera on one side of it. The marshal
didn't see the tongue and Just as he turned
around it struck his left ankle causing a
very painful bruise. No bones we're
broken, but the injury Is such that he suf-
fers a great deal of pain, and 1t will prob
ably be a month or six weeks before he is
able to be about again.

Chas. Funk. who was arrested up north
by Capt. Smith for stealing a team of
horses fion Edward Pitt. was tried yes
terday before Judge Carroll and sentenced
to forty days Imprisonment in the county
Jail.
The scene at the trial was an affecting
one. Mr.. Funk's wife and child were in
tears at the fate OF the father of the fam
lily. The family will be left in very poor
circumstances and will probably suffer
much during the winter.
Mr.. Funk obtained the team on the
strength of a certificate he had from a
bogus detective agency Of Kansas City,
claiming he had located a criminal he
wanted up north and went after him with
the team, but afterward forgot to bring
the team back.
