PRESIDENT HARRISON BEFORE THE
METHODIST COUNCIL

The President visited the Ecumenical
Methodist Council last week, and,
being introduced, said:
Mr.. Chairman and Gentlemen ofhe
COnference:-I came here this morning
to make an expression of my respect
and esteem for this great body of dele
gates assembled from all the countries
of the world and much more to give a
manifestation of my respect and love for
that greater body of Christian men and
women for whom you stand. Every
ecumenical conference is a distinct step
in the direction not only of the unifca-
tion of the church, but of the uniiication
of humanity. 1 am glad to know that
you have been in consultation as to the
method and time when minor divisions
among you may be obliterated. 1t is
the natural order that subdivisions
should be wiped out before the grand
divisions of the church can be united.
Who does not greatly rejoice that the
controversial teaching of the church is
less than it once was-that we hear more
of the Master and His teachings of love
and duty than of hair-sphtting and
theological discussions. l recall many
years ago, while visiting watering
place in Wisconsin, that when the Sab
bath came around 1 went with some
friends to little Methodist Episcopal
church in an adjoining village. The
preacher undertook to overturn my Pres
byterianism Qaughter), and an irreverent
friend who sat beside me was constantly
emphasizing the points made by nudges
of his elbow. / am glad to recall that,
although since then l have worshipped
in Methodist Episcopal churches, that
was the last experience of that kind /
have had. You have to-day as the
theme of discussion the subject of inter-
national arbitration, and this perhaps
makes my presence here as an officer of
the United States especially appropriate.

When the house toulouse method of
delivering mails was adopted, "a few years
ago, says the New York Sun, everybody
thought it the ultimate achievement of a
perfect postal system. Postmaster-Gen-
eral Wanamaker is about to take step
beyond, in the establishment ola scheme
for collecting letters, papers and pack
ages from dwelling to dwelling and from
shop to shop, so that no one need ever
be obliged to 60 outside of his domicile
for the purpose of sending such matter
in Uncle Sans care. The new plan will
be put into operation early in the coming
year. The Sun gives a column of details
that are interesting but which are too
voluminous for our columns to-day.

One of the most interesting figures in
the distinguished gathering at Trinity
church, Boston, on the 14th, inst, when
Bishop Brooks was consecrated, was
Hon. Robert c. Winthrop. There was
in Mr.. WinthrOp's appearance there an
historical interest aside from that Of a
personal nature. He was probably the
Oldest member of Trinity church present
on the occasion. Fifty-seven years ago
he was elected vestryman in the church
in which he had been christened and
confirmed. His many friends will be
glad to know that Mr.. Winthrop has so
improved in health as to be able to at
tend the conservation exercises, and will
hope to see him again taking part in
other meetings of a public character.

George Colegrove met with a peculiar
accident in the early part of last week
He was working on a staging putting on
clapboards and took his lead pencil out
to mark where he wanted to saw off a
piece and the pencil fell from his hand,
when he stopped and made grab for il
to keep it from falling to the ground.
The unsharpened end struck the staging
in an upright position just as his hand
reached it, and the point was nearly
driven through his hand, being broken
off and making an ugly wound, it being
found necessary to probe for the pieces.
The hand is getting along as well as
could be expected.

A despatch, dated Newburyport,
Mass, Oct. 18th, says that James Parton,
the historian and biographer died that
morning. He was born in Canterbury,
England, February 9th. 1922. He was
brought to the United States when he
was five years old, and educated in the
schools of New York city and White
Plains in that State. He devoted his life
to literary work, contributing to periodi-
coils and publishing books on biographi-
cal subjects. In 1855, he wrote life of
Horace Greeley. In 1857 he wrote the
''Life and Times of Aaron Burr" in
which he sought to redeem Burr's repu-
tation from the charges that attached to
his memory. Among his notable works
was life of Voltaire, the fruit of
several years labor, published in Boston
in 1881. He was the husband of
Fanny Fern" who died in Brooklyn,
October 10th, 1872.

BRETHREN IN MANY ORDERS

Though the fact is not generally
known, Messrs. Fasset and Vrooman,
the Republican candidates for governor
and lieutenant governor, belong to a
large number of clubs, fraternities and
civic organizations of varied charac ter.
J. Sloat Fassettisa thirty-second degree
Mason and member of ST. Omar Lodge,
No. 10, in his native city of Elmira. He
is also a member of the Ancient Order of
United Workmen, of Wetamore Tribe,
Improved Order of Red Men. Elmira,
and of the Elks in the same city. At
the Rochester university he was mem
Der of the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity and
he is in the Union League, New York,
University, Alpha Delta Phi, Fellowcraft,
Dawyerg and Republicans clubs in New
York city. He Is also member Of the
City club of Elmira.
Hon. John w. Vrooman is veteran of
the war and member of Helmer Post
No. 4O4, G. A. r., of Herkimer. he is
trustee of the Holland society of New
York city, and is prominent in Masonry
and past grand master of the Grand
Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons of
the State of New York. He is a member
of the Lotus, Republican, Manhattan
Athletic aud American yacht clubs OF
New York, a trustee of the New York
state firemens home, director of the
Young Mems Christian association of
Herkimer, member of the Methodist
Episcopal church of that place, and is
and has been for fifteen years supeTin-
tendent of the Sunday school connected
with the church.
Messrs Fassetand VroOman never allow
their connection with these organizations
to be paraded before the people, nor will
they permit themselves to be received
during their campaign tour by any club
or other body with which they are con
nected. 1t is doubtful, however, if any
other two men have a wider range of
fraternal association or more remark
ably diversified field of usefulness
Troy Times.
Our readers in the State of New York
will thus see that the Republican
standard-bearers are men who are not
afraid to "chip in mite of time and
money to assist their fellows in frater-
nal way.

Pension Commissioner Raum may be
in all sorts of scrapes about the conduct
of his Office, but he can boast as he does,
of the remarkable rate at which he is
grinding out cases, and thus carrying joy
into thousands of homes of deserving
Union veterans. A statement prepared
at the pension Office shows that the total
number of pensions granted during the
month of September was 27, ,644, in which
the first payments aggregated S4,075, ,476
This is at the rate of about 100000 cases

Washington papers say very little
about the fact that the colored delegates
to the Methodist Ecumenical council
found great difficulty in securing food

had to supply their needs. 1t is difficult

whatever for this state of affairs.
