votional exercises the Rev. James
Slidell gave an address on "The
Church as a Teaching Body" Arch
Deacon Webber followed with an
address Oh the missionary work in the
diocese.
At $3.50 o'clock, after evening prayer
the Bishop preached an earnest and
most interesting sermon on "The un-
shaken things of Cod" showing that
among all the mutations of time, there
are enduring principles and institutions
that do not change; among these are,
the Church of Christ, its creeds, its
ministry, its sacraments, and It's Bible.
An informal but very enjoyable re-
ception was held at the rectory after
the service.
On Wednesday morning the holy
communion was celebrated at 1880
o'clock
At 1890 a, m, morning prayer was
said, and Arch Deacon Webber
preached most enjoyable sermon on
the Joys Of Christianity as exempli-
fed in the lessons of the Epiphany
season" After service the clergy took
lunch at the rectory.

At 7:30 p. m. a missionary meeting
was held, consisting Of slhrt deyo-
tional exercises, hymns; and addresses
on the general missionary work Of the
Church, by Reys. A. II. harrington, NJ.
Damer, and Dean Royce. This service
closed the meetings Of the conyo-
cation.
Although the meetings were very
enjoyable generally, yet there was a
shadow cast over them by the receipt
Of kilograms, by the Bishop on Tues

brother at Baltimore, and by the Arch
Deacon on Wednesday, bringing the
same sad hdings concerning brother

Mineral Point and 1901.

1t lis an uudisputed fact that dur.
ing the year 1891 Mineral Point en-.
joyed an era of progression and
prosperity exceeding that of any
previous year. 1t was high time for
move of this kind. The city had
been at a standstill, with q slight
backward tendency, long enough.
The amount invested in buildings
and improvements easily reaches
the handsome sum of 100000, in
cluding the pulp mills, much of
which is still uncompleted. When
it is remembered that this does not
include street work and city i'm
provements, but covers only the
added new homes of the people
and new places of industrial activity
and trade, the showing is more
striking.
This is a prestige of considerable
importance, and such as ought to
be easily maintained. The pros
poets are good. Times are not dull i,
money is plenty, prices for the
products of the fa' i are well up,
while the value of manufactured
articles tend to decrease.
1t is almost certain that this march
of progress will continue on through
1892, as different individuals and
organizations are already arranging
for new buildings aud improvements
to be commenced as soon as the
season for such work opens.
At this rate Mineral Point will
soon take her proper position among
the other cities of the stqte--one Of
the most solid and substantial
among them all.
