NOT YET A BISHOP.
PHILIPPE Brooks Has Not Been Confirmed bv
the. Bishops.

the Bishops.
Surprise has been felt by some people, par
ticularly by the loyal adherents of the Rev. DIR.
Phillips Brooks. says q Boston special to the
New York Tunes, that there has been so much
delay on the part of the bishops in recording
their votes in the matter OF the confirmation Of
his election bishop. Thirty-fve votes are
required to confirm or reject, and as soon as
these are received by Bishop Williams he will
notify DR.. Brooks Of the result. A letter has
come to this city from Bishop Williams in
which he expresses his approval of Mr.. Brooks
and that the votes of Bishops Potter. Little
john and Doane are for him. Further than
this nothing is positively known by any one
save the bishop.
While it is certain DR.. Brooks election has
not been confirmed. il 10 equally certain that
he has not been rejected. The delay does not
indicate opposition or indifference on the part
Of the bishops. Some of them are stationed In
western Africa, China, Japan and other distant
countries, and many are on their visitations- As
it is not obligatory on any one to vote. there is
possibility that some may decline to do 30,
and these would most probably be the men who
could not be heard from first
There is a well settled opinion in the minds
of the best informed that the confirmation of
the election of DR.. Brooks by the bishops is
but matter of time. and that the number of
votes now needed to make him q bishop is very
small indeed.

about the number of quarts each possessed
and very soon tin buckets. wooden buckets and
strawberry boxes were flying through the air
with wonderful rapidity. BY the time the
hausted. the road was literally covered
with clusters OF little black balls Then when
each had got sufficient satisfaction out of the
head OF the other they looked sadly down on their
empty pals A little group of gentlemen who
had been watching the row and az plauding the
lighters. made up purse equal to the market
value OF the berries and presented it " the now
highly pleased women.

A DASH FOR LIBERTY.
Wm- Wheeler Makes a Break, but IL Finally
Caught and Sent Down.

Wiiliam Wheeler, the soldier who was
fined $50 or ninety days on the farm by Judge
kiInbsll yesterday for carrying revolver,
made up his mind that he would not go to the
work house if he could help himself. whether
he had the amount of fine or not, and when the
procession Of prisoners was moving from the
building to the prison van he made bold dash
for liberty and came near getting away.
The officers at the court could not run as
fast as the fugitive, but they had good lungs
and knew how to use them. They made so
much noise that the pursuing party was soon
made up of a few policemen aud twice as many
boys and citizens.
Wheeler ran along ID street in front of police
headquarters and turning down A. street he
entered the alley next to Dr.. SunderIand's
church.
Managing to get over a fence or wall
about ten feet high he got into stable and
secreted himself in the hay and there he was
found by Officer Kimmel. who returned him to
the van and he was then taken to the work
house with the other prisoners
