question, and others are in doubt as to whether it is or not. Dr. Mendenhall, one of the leading authorities of the church, holds that their admission to the general conference is "one of those doubtful aues- tions that may be more satisfactorily set tied by the concurrent action of the anuu- al conference than by the general confer ence alone. The benefit of the doubt. he says, should not be appropriated by the general conference, but given to the church and decided by original rather than by delegated authority" The question is ons that is certain to be debated with great vigor at the forthcoming gathering of the representatives of Methodism at Omaha.
 The Rev. Phillips Brooks has shown no signs since his elevation to the bishopric of any diminution of that evangelical ar dor that characterized him as the rector of Trinity church, Cambridge and elsewhere. He is now urging upon the Episcopalians of Boston & forward movement all alone the line in the work of city evangelization At a recent conference of laymen sum moned by him he used language that, how ever it may be received by high church. men, will find a responsive echo in the hearts of all who are interested in the con- version of the masses to Christianity. ''There is no reason." he said, "that the time should not come when we shall have laymen constituting themselves lay preschs CTS and carrying the message of the gospel into places and among persons that a regu- lar clergyman could not approach. Hav- ing caught the fire, go and carry the fire Go and distinctly separate yourself from your own parish and give strength to a weaker parish Our appeal to day is not to be understood as an appeal for money, though money is always necessary. as it is for individual, personal service. Money Is a secondary object. We need deeper Christianity in cur hearts and then the mechanism necessary to perform it will surely follow. The greater Boston of to- day has grown up and broadened in differ ent vays than of the older days ever thought of. So we have need of other means than parochisl organization, or at least psrochial organizations must be as- sisted by volunteer service from the mem bers of the laity."
 The Church club of Chicago have made arrangements to entertain on an extensive scale the Episcopal delegates to the Church Congress in connection with the Worlds Columbian exhibition. They are also bus jed in the preparation of program that is certain, if carried out, as it doubtless will be, to make their church's share in the de- monstratiOn a complete success.

AND STILL EHEY COME.

AND STILL THEY COME.
 We print this morning another long list of the names of signers of the petition for the removal of the Big Four. The move ment has reached astounding proportions. Between three and four thousand sigma lures have already been brought in. The citizens are not only willing but anxious to sign. There is only one explanation of this. They do not want ring rule estab- lished in New Haven. The friends of the Big Four may say that it did not go be- yond it's legal rights in the summary and unreasonable discharge of the three off cers. What if it didn'ts It did show that it didn't care for public opinion and that it was a combination formed more for it's This is the thing to be kept in sight. And it is to be remembered that the people, in asking for the removal of the Big Four, do not go beyond their legal rights, and that the aldermen will not go beyond theirs in yielding to the wishes of the petitioners. Those who think it would be hard to turn out the Big Four for what even they ad- init was an "error of judgment" don't seem to see any harm in turning out three faithful public servants whose ''error of judgment" was that they didn't make themselves solid with the ring.
 Neither the Big Four nor it's friends should whine at this time. It audaciously challenged the people. The challenge has been accepted, and it is most earnestly to be hoped that the fight will end in the thorough knocking out" of the Big Four. The people expect the aldermen to do their Infy

federal forces at the battle of Phillippi,
 the first battle of the war. One of the
 first bullets fired pierced Colonel Kelley's
 lung and stained his vest, which was pre-

 mortal, and lived to good old age.
 A parliamentary committee is to be ap- pointed to take into consideration the sub ject of the London fogs, for the purpose of seeing whether this evil cannot be in some way abated. A calculation has been made that by the use, under present con- ditions, of bituminous coal, there is thrown out into the air of London each day the equivalent of 4s0 tons of sulphur, the breathing in of which must be detri- mental to the human lungs, and which, with the soot, is said to greatly intensity the density and obscurity of the fogs.
 The "harp of thousand strings" gets put out of tune queerly sometimes. A Fall River young woman was struck upon the head by falling sign some three years ago and was ill for several weeks with brain fever. Although righthanded up to the time of her injury, when she got up from her sick bed she was as left handed as though she had always been. She immediately began to use her left hand as handily as she had used the right, while the right was just about as useful as the left had formerly been.
 Prussia has several decorations for women. The oldest is the Order of the Swan, founded in 1440, allowed to lapse during the Reformation and revived in 1S43. The Order of Louise, named after Prussia's most beautiful Queen, was found ed in 1914 by Frederick William III. Its decoration of the first class is given to women for meritorious service in nursing the wounded in war; of the second class, to women distinguished for philanthropic work generally. The Cross of Merit was instituted by Emperor William I. on his fiftieth birthday, ''as recognition of the grand self-sacrifice which the women of showed for the soldiers in the last war" Special medals for women were struck in 1S07-14 and 1S70-71.

The serious charge was recently made that nearly all mission stations in Africa are trafficking in tobacco with the natives, and it has been added that Bishop Taylor not only permits but compels the traffic in all stations under his control. The charge is emphatically denied. The Rev. Ross Taylor, writing from Africa, says; ''To- bacco is the small currency of Liberia, but in no other part of Africa where we uhe Methodists) have missions. Hundreds of natives will take nothing else. For more than three years we fought against it and then consented to send shipment to New York. A brother prayed that it might be lost and it was shipwrecked. The part re- covered was totally worthless. We send no more of any kind For small currency for Liberia we have sent our four tons of Colgste's soap and large supply of hatch cts, mattocks, fish hooks and so forth. Our missionaries nowhere now trade in tobacco in any form"

From the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.l
 In some countries curious customs pre- vail in regard to selecting a name for the baby.
 A Hindoo baby is named when it is twelve years old, snd usually by the moth CT. Sometimes the father wishes for an other name than that selected by the moth CT; in that case two lamps are placed over the two names, and the name over which the lamp burns the brightest is the one given 10 the child
 In an Egyptian family the parents choose a name for theiE baby by lighting three wax candles; to each of these they give a name, one of three always belong. ing to some deifed parsonage. The csn- dle that burns the longest bestows the name on the baby.
 The Mohammedans sometimes write de- sirable names on five slips of paper, and these they place in the Koran. The name upon the first slip drawn out is given to the child.
 The children of the Ainos, a people lv- ing in northern Japan, do not receive their names until they are five years old. It is the father who then chooses the name by which the child is afterward called.
 The Chinese give their boy babies a name in addition to their surnames, and they must call themselves by these names urtl they are twenty years old At that age the father gives his son a new name
 The Chinese care so little for their girl babies that they do not give them a baby name, but just call them Number One, Number Two, Number Three, according to their birth.
 Boys are thought so muck mora o. ]; China than girls are that If you ask Chi nese father who has a boy and girl how many children he has, he will always re- ply, "Only one child.''
 German parents sometimes change the name of their baby if it is i'll, and the Japanese are said to change the name of a child four times.

Dr. Stevens Work on the Pauline
 Theology.
 To the Editor Of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 l desire to call the attention of your readers, theological and non-theological, to the recently published work of Professor George B. Stevens of the Yale divinity school on the Pauline Theology. Its aim is to explore the sources of the teaching of the Apostle Paul. It involves an analysis of his mental history with & view to dis cover the genesis of his leading thoughts and to point out their relations to one an other and to his own inward life. The au thor shows himself abreast of the times as regards learning, at the same time that his pages are full of lucidity and vigor. It is seldom that the skill and fairness of an ac- complished Biblical interpreter are so fine ly blended with the logic of the trained theologisn. There is not dull page in the book. Whoever reads it with atten- ton will make himself acquainted with the ripest fruits and most advanced methods of religious discussion. An unaffected reverence for truth and genuine faith in the verities of Christianity pervade the volume. The great Apostle is made to stand forth in a living portraiture not only of his outward life, but also of his inward, spiritual history. The work is published by the Messrs. Scribner. x.

 Chicago Letter in the Journalist
 O. L. Rhodes walked into the local sanc- tum of the Evening Post about six weeks ago and handed his resignation to City Editor Gibbs. Accompanying it was an explanation to the effect that his father, who is wealthy resident of central Mis- souri. had invited him to take trip over the territory between Mexico and Alaska, and that he had decided to avail himself of the opportunity. Rhodes had been real estate- editor of the Post several months. Prior to that he had been iden- tified for some time with the News, and the excellent reports printed in that paper during the Cronin trial were his work. After his departure nothing was heard from him until a few days ago, when word came that instead of accompanying his father on his tour he had taken it into his head to trough it" from the Mississippi to the Atlantic coast, with view of getting a taste of the life of the common every day tramp.

 Africa is very interesting place. The single tribe of the Betsi Fangs, in the Kongo country, according to De Brazza, numbers over 2,OOO,0OO souls. Their most important villages are from three to ten miles back from the rivers. Father Le- jeune estimates that along the Ogowe river from Lambarene to Ndyole there are 200,- 900 Fangs. All the rivers forming a net work through the country are in the pos session of this race.
