east coast of Virginia. about sixty miles

ment of men on board. Immediately after
leaving New York the steamship ran into
foul weather. There was bad wind and
an ugly sea running, and it was decided 70
keep the steamship under the coast. thus
to escape the bad weather. A bad fe;s
came with nightfall and so the Des-
patch slowed down considerably, although
even at that she was going at fair
speed. The weather continued to grow
worse and the vessel struck head on. In
mediately the sea swept her about with
broadsIdes on the shoals. The Despatch's
commander Immediately let go the anchors,
but they did not strike until after the waves
had beaten her well up onto the shoals. Com
munication with the vessel is difficult and
almost impossible.

lish sparrow is being pushed out of its nest
by the Yankee cuckoo. Our only revenge
is found in the conviction that If we are
dislked on the Continent the Americans
are more disliked. They inherit our unpopu-
larity abroad, being mere unsympathetlc
and aggressive"
The British right to enjoy Homburg, to
the exclusion of other people, which is i'm
piled in this strain of woe, is not self
evident. and what the Germans may think
of the British sparrow who builds his NEST"
in Homburg is not stated. Perhaps the
German is not less pleased with the dis
turbing cuckoo than with the appropriating
sparrow, for the allegation of the sparrow
that, disliked as 1t is, the cuckoo is more
disliked, is testimony wholly ex parte.
The sparrow is evidently conscious that it
must give some reason for the disfavor into
which the cuckoo has fallen. and sets forth
that it Is the Yankee voice and accent which
embitter the cuckoo's relations with less
strident races, and which, indeed, 'is at
present a blight on all social relations"
Whether the Yankee voice is less agreeable
than the voice and speech of the British
cockney is a question which need not dis
turb the peace of nations. But it is plain
from the little outburst that some sparrow
is as much annoyed by the note Of some
cuckoo as the cuckoo has been amused by
the conduct of the sparrow. - Harper's

much as it was recommended by special

well as by both United States Senators from
California, two Representatives from the
city, Mr.. Huntington. Mr.. Crocker and many
others whom he naturally supposed were
thoroughly familiar with the locality. The
Secretary said the site was selected mainly
on the recommendation of the persons
named. and because it contained fifty per
cent more ground than any of the other sites
offered. Secretary Foster specially added
that Pnstmas ter General Wanamaker did
not recommend the site which was selected
by the commission, but an entirely differ
ent one on elevated ground.

ECUMENICAL COUNCIL.
Interesting Discussions on Relations Of
Modern Science to Religion.

WASHINGTON, Oct 10.--The fourth days
session of the Methodist Ecumenical Coun-
Gil was presided over by Rev. DR.. Arthur OF
England. The Committee on Business re-
ported number of resolutions and memo
ras, which were held for consideration at
later day.
The regular programme Of the day was
then taken up, the subject for discussion
being 1.-THE Church and Scientific Thought" !"
The first essay was one prepared by Percy
w. Bunting, editor OF the Contemporary
Review, entitled 1.-The Influence of Modern
Scientific Progress on Religious Thought"
In Mr.. Bunting's absence the paper was
read by J. B. Slack of London. The pa
per, in part, said that the modern mind has
so steeped itself in science as to blunt. to 40
small extent, its spiritual faculties. AgrOs.
tcsm appears to rest upon the idea tlal
nothing is to be believed which does not
rest on experiment and induction. The
question is not one Of science but of phil
oSOphy.
Rev. DR.. Terry of Evanston, Ill, spoke
on the attitude OF the church toward the
various phases of unbeief.
Rev. w. Il. Davidson of England. tutor In
biblical literature and eXegess in college,
there, followed in an address on the subject
of the Bible and modern criticism.
Rev. DR.. de Dewart of Toronto held that
the great problem confronting the church
was the necessity of recOnciling the results
of criticism and Christian doctrine.
Rev. Frank Ballard of England said the
small time allotted for the discussion Of this
great subject was an Indication of disre-
spect.
Dr. Buckley of New York paid tribute
to Bunting's paper which showed, he said,
that religion was not and never would be a
matter of induction deduction or observa-

Bishop Keener of the NJ. E. Church, South,
deprecated all apoogetic views of creation.
He came out of speculation into the region
of facts.
Bishop Fowler of San Francisco said un-
less Methoiists could defend their ground
they must surrender. Therefore he well
coined criticisms
The council then adjourned to allow the
delegates to embark on an excursion to the
