J. Tucker of Hanover, Profes- sor J. H. Perry of Cincinnati, Charles J. Hurlburt of Chicago, F. D. Taylor of De- | troit and Rev. Frederick S. Hayden of Jacksonville. Ballots bearing the names of these men were circulated, and 1t was the only ticket distributed.
 A. 0. Thompson's resignation from the 1 prudential committee was read. It stated that the committee had been frugal and 1 that the board and Its annually appointed | agents had previously gone to the verge of allowable hospitality toward speculation in their present influence and ominous in their drift. By those speculstions the re- I 4ulEcu uUIO OL oNhukCllCd1 ldlhh anu hhcI- ity are inevitably relaxed so as to disquali- | fly for that type of service which our Lord commits to the Congregational churches of port, increasing the number of members on the corporate board to $50 at the rate | of twenty five members annually, begin l ming in 1894, was unanimously accepted. | Dr. Arthur Little of the nominating committee, addressing the board said that almost every hour since the beginning of the meeting some change had to be made In the ticket ss arranged.

HE ATTACKED TEE CHURCH.

Dr. Parker Is IrrItated at the AttI- tude of the Recent Church Congress
 at Rirmingh am, and Attacks the
 Established Church.
 LONDON, Oct. 12.-Dr. Joseph Parker of City Temple this evening made hot as- sault on the Established Church. He Is understood to have been irritsted by the unyielding attitude of the recent church congress st Birmingham. Dr. Parker said that the Right Rev. Frederick Temple had forbidden Canon James ". Leigh to at tend temperance meeting at the City Temple.
 ''If any bishop stoops to such a course as this," said Dr. Parker, "there Is but one party guiltisr than he, and that Is the party submitting to theee conditions. do not hesitate to declare that one of the first spiritual needs of London Is that such a bishop as the bishop of London be ex- pelled from his bishopric."
 pr. Parker then spoke with much keen ness of the relations between churchmen and non-conformlsts. No clergymen of the Established church, he said, could confer honor on non conformiets by at tending their meetings. This was a question of Christian spirit and not one of privilege or patronage. The non-conformists should not allow the idea to prevail that they courted the friend ship of churchmen. They should be hos pitsble and courteous toward the men of the Estsblished church, but should never go so far that their hospitality and cour- tesy should be mistaken for ssryiltty.

DIRECTOR DAVIS WAS ANGRY.

In Firm but Polite Language He Re- piled to the Complaint of Lord Mayor Shanks of Dublin, who Criti- cIsed American Statesmen and Methods at q Banquet at the Worlds
 Fair.
 WORLDS FAIR GROUNDS, CHICAGO, Oct. 12.-Dublin's lord mayor, James Shanks, was persona nou grats with the high gov erning officials of the fair to- day, particu- larly with Director General Davis. The trouble was caused by the lord mayors ill-advised and discourteous speech at the Music Hall banquet at an early hour this morning. Not half hundred of the ban. queters remained until that time, and most of them stood in a cluster around Di- rector General Davis, who was acting as toastmaster- Executive Commissioner Hovey of Massachusetts came to the ban quet prepared with au interesting speech which he was to deliver In response to the toast. "The Executive Commissioners of the United States"
 Long before 1t came his turn to speak, just before the closing address of Presi- dent Higinbotham, the representative of Massachusetts left the banquet hall with feelings of ill-concealed disgust because of a confusion created by the foreign and other guests and their persistent refusal to listen to the speeches. So the director general announced that Mr. Hovey's place on the program would be taken by Mayor Shanks, who had evidently come primed to make discordant speech, although his name, as he took pains to inform his hosts at the beginning of his speech, was not on the list.
 His first complaint was that through an unintentional oversight. the name Ireland was not included in the toast "Great Britain and Her Colonies"
 The director general felt offended when the lord mayor also complained that Ire land was not represented at the fair with @ building of her own and courts of her own. When he said "the next time don't have the Mckinley tariff" Colonel Davis, who is staunch republican, stood up and his eyes flashed with indignation. He said to his friends around him, "I will call him down for that"
 When Mayor Shsnks sat down nobody appleuded the sentiments, and the director general quickly arose. In firm but polite language he informed the lord mayor that 1t was no time nor place and 1t Ill became him as guest when asked to respond for an American commissioner to criticize American statesmen. AS to his complaint that Ireland was not represented az @ na- ton it was absurd as we'll as discourteous to the exposition officers, because only na- tions recognized as such by all the civilized powers could be represented at the worlds fair. The lord mayor looked sbashed and made no reply

that he himself would be glad to hear {. mo

that nc aiiucclI WOu1u D0 Bino VI aOok o Aao ton to adjourn.
 Mir. Voorhees, said he had not embarked upon this voyage without full knowledge of the difficulty that would encounter him. During the past forty,two hours he had only slept an hour. He believed quorum would ultimately reach the chamber. There was, he said, forty members here now, not counting seven or eight kindly souls sitting about the chamber too indolent even to answer to their names. Mir. Voorhees, sug- gested that Mr. Gsllipger use his influence with these senators, but MT. Gallinger de- nied having any.
 At 1:O5 quorum appeared and hr.Stew art continued. He had gone on but fifteen minutes when Mir. Woleott again noticed the absence of quorum. Thirty-siI sen- ators only answered.
 At 1:40 the sergesnt-st-srms reported that there were two senators absent from the city, twelve excused, four unable to at tend on account of illness, nine in the cap itol who made no answer to the summons and sixteen could not be found. Mr. Voorhees, said that in view of the report 1t was evident no further business could be transacted to night, and he therefore moved that the senate adjourn.
 There was no opposition, and the senate adjourned until Il o'clock Friday.

MINERS ARE JUBILANT.

The Mines Are Opened in England
 and Thousands of Men Have Gone
 Back to Work at the old Wages.
 LONDON. Oct. 12.-Although majority of the owners of ccllieries in Dsrbyshire, who adhered to the federation of Coal Mine Owners are posting notices in acoordsncs with the terms of the resolution adopted on Tuesday at the conference in Sheffield, several of them have reopened their pits and the miners have gone back to work st the old rate of wages. Nine thousand men resumed their work this morning in Derby shire.
 The resolution referred to declared that the mine owners Here deslrous of termin- atirg the distress arising from the strike In the coal districts and of breaking the dead lock in trade, and were therefore willing to reopen their pits for the present at a reduction of 15 psr cent. in wsges, though they reiterated their claim that the state of trade warranted 9 per cent. reduction. The fact that 9,000 of the men have gone back to work at the wages paid before the strike, Is somewhat In the nature of @ vic tory for the men.
 Fully twenty thousand miners are now at work in NottinRhsmshire and Warwick shire, and it may be said that the situation in the coal districts there has virtually ss stunned It's normal condition.
 The defections that have occurred among themselves have seriously weakened the coal mine owners' association, and 1t is be- lisved that more of them will soon be com pelled to reopen their pits at the old rate of wages. The miners are jubilsnt and claim that practically they have won the foht

When my little girl was one month old, she had scab form on her face. It kept spread ing until she was completely covered from head to foot. Then she had boils. She had forty on her head at one time, and more on her body. When six months old she did not weigh seven pounds, pound and a half less than at birth. Then her skin started to dry up and got so bad she could not shut her eyes to sleep, but laid with them half open.
