others would establish a limited monarchy,

men Of all shades Of liberal opinion are ready,

The Art Students League.

The members of the Art Students League
gave most delightful reception at their rooms
on 18th street Thursday evening. Several
OF the teachers and most of the stu
dents were on hand to extend a hearty
welcome to all the visitors, of whom
there were many, and the evening passed most
agreeably. The most important feature of the
occasion was the very creditable display of the
work OF the members in the way of charcoal
sketches, water colors, oils and studies from

hibition was worthy Of the very favorable
comment it received

Diphtheric Poison From Apples.

From the Troy Times
Attention is called to the fact that apples
stored in cellars or elsewhere are invariably
covered exteriorIy with mold or mildew-often
invisible, but just as real. This mold consists
mostly of microscopic plants, including numer-
Gus species of fungi, all of which are more or
less poisonous. Physicians say they have
traced cases of diphtheria III children to the
use Of moldy apples. Mothers in the habit
OF giving little children apples to play with
and the babies try TO ca. them. In such cases
the mold should be carefully removed from the
apples.

A Cooperative Ice Company.

To the EDITOR of The Evening Star:
The suggestion Of "Junius" as to a citizens
cooperative ice company only requires some
one to start the ball rolling to insure success.
There is an ice-manufacturing company in
Brooklyn and another in Philadelphia each
operating under a system that produces ice at
less than 80 cents ton, and / understand I'M
der guarantee that the cost shall not exceed
this sum. including all expenses necessary to
make the ice complete ready to place upon
wagons for delivery. Cannot some one start a
popular company here? FELIX.

Infanta Mercedes, his own cousin. to whom he
was ardently attached, but Queen Mercedes
died after but five months of welded life Less
than year later Alfonso XII made state mar
riage with the Archduchess Marie Christina of
Austria, woman who furnishes almost the
only example Of virtue and devotion TO duty of
any occupant of the throne Of Spain in hum
dred years. Her marriage was unhappy.
Alfonso XII never ceased to mourn his first
bride, and sought distraction in such dissipa-
ton as hastened his death. Yet Queen Chris
tina bore him three children, the first of whom
she named Mercedes for her husbands lost
love, so great is her generosity OF character.
Now for nearly eight years she has filled the
difficult position of queen regent of Spain.
1t would seem that with such a record for
the direct line the Carlists are justified in their
efforts to restore the Salic law. The three
generations of Don Carlos are singuIarly free
from the vices that have characterized the oc-
cupants of the throne They are strong
handsome race, with dash of the chivalric in
ability and sagacity.
There is still another party of royalists, those
who would cut the Gordlan knot of all these
political difficulties by founding an entirely
new dynasty. These are they who would restore
Amadeus, brother of the King of Italy. 1t is
safe to say that Amadeus is not lending his
aid to these schemes for during the few years
he occupied the throne Of Spain in the early
seventies his life was made SO insupportable
that he voluntarily adbicated.

but the Presbyterian Church in the United
States has charged Prof. Briggs with teachings
that contradict essential truths of the Scrip
lures and the constitution of the Presbyterian
Church.
This indictment from beginning to end runs
in the name Of the whole church, and the trial
whole church has been expressed in a judicial
decision. guilty" or mot guilty"
A person accused may appear many times
and before different courts of the church, but
there Is only one trial, and all sacred rights of
appeal are thrown around the humblest men,
Der, and these constitutional safeguards are the
glory of the Presbyterian Church.
The Portland assembly. In the exercise of its
indlsputable constitutional right, directed the
presbytery of New York. the court of oripi-
nal jurisdiction, to take up and issue the case
according to the constitution of the Presbvte-
rian Church. The fairness. patience and care
with which the presbytery conducted the case
has been commended by all candid men; but
the jury failed to agree and the trial reached its
end, so far as the presbytery of New York was
interested. but the trial was not concluded SO
far as the Presbyterian Church in the United
States was concerned. and the prosecution COM
mittee took an appeal from the decision of the
presbytery of New York to the general assem-
bly,.
THE QUESTION OF APPEAL.
But what right, you ask did that commit
tee have to appeal the case directly to the as
sembly? Why not follow the usual course and
appeal to the synod of New York, the next
court above? This question may be considered
in two aspects. First. Does the constitution
authorize this appeal directly over the head of
synod to the general assembly? Undeniably.
the right exists in the constitution. Page 400
chapter IN, par. 102, says; appeals are gem
orally to be taken to to the judicatory immedi-
atey superior to that appealed from" The
word generally" shows clearly and undeni-
ably that all appeals need not be taken in
this way. The constitution itself provides wisely
for proper exceptions to the ordinary mode.
For sufficient reasons an appeal may be taken
directly to the assembly -Presbyteria Law
and Usage, page "a.
The assembly has repeatedly refused to denv
the right OF direct appeal in cases that affect
the doctrine aud constitution.
