The town of Hiawatha, Kansas, has
adopted a most unselhsh plan by which
it will celebrate the anniversary of the
nations birthday. 1t has decided to
dispense with the festivities which had
been arranged for the Fourth of July
this year, and to give the money which
would have been spent in the celebra,
ton for the relief of destitute colony
of Illinois immigrants and other needy
residents of the vicinity.
The impulse lately given to golc
mining has infused new life into many
deserted towns and abandoned camps
in the West, In 1861 the camp o
Florence, Idaho, had a population O
10000 people, and everything tina
goes to the making of a city. 1t wa

But the supply soon became exhausted
and the miners would not take tn

quickly deserted. Recently, however

town again shows signs of life.

seems to be that the institutions are

conditions; in fact they positively as
sert them to be good and satisfactory.

For Appointments.

The last legislature provided for
the appointment of commission to
make new apportionment of the
state and commanded it to make its
report to the governor within sixty
DAYS after the official publication Of
the completed state census. The
official publication of the census was
made last week and the sixty days
limit will expire Dec. IL. The com
mission consists of three state sena-
tors 1.-TWO republicans aud one demo-
eraD and five assemblymen 1.-TWO
democrats and three republicans
Their names are Thayer, Stout, Ken
nedy, Lamberson, Treat, Arson, Yaw-
key, Conway and Schellenberg. 1t is
claimed that the gentlemen are all
men of ability, honor and courage,
and that the people may expect the
fairest scheme for an apportionment
from their hands the state has ever
had. After the report is in the hands
Of the governor that official may, if he
sees fit, call special session Of the
Legislature to make new apportion-
ment before the next election and if
the expression Of the republican state
press is a fair indication of public
opinion among republicans, the party
generally believes a new, apportion
ment is desirable.

FINAL JOINT SESSION.
Close of the Episcopal conven.

PASTORAL LETTER OF BISHOPS.

1t Is Read by Bishop LittIeiohn of Long
Island and Refers to the Successful De-
alterations of the Convention and Other
Church Matters-National Conference Of
Unitarians and Other Christian Churches
ia washington-W. c. 4. U. Convention.
MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 22.--The two houses
of the Episcopalian convention met in
joint session as the final act of a very busy
three weeks session. The pastore. letter
prepared by the bishops was read by BisL
OPP Littlejohn Of Long Island The docu
sIent is addressed to the clergy and laity
of the church and contains 1000 words
The bishops refer to the successful DELHI
erations of the convention, to the progress
in the work Of revising the constitutions
and contributions for the work of the
church. A paragraph is devoted to the
heroic self-sacrifice of the missionaries in
China, and to a justification of the
church's policy in keeping them there and
sending more to join them in the work.
The fact that foGr new dioceses and two
new missionary jurisdictions have been
created, is pointed to as an evidence of the
healthy growth Of the church at home
Lack OF self-saeri1eing Men.
In discussing church unity the bishops
are not hopeful of immediate or general
results save in the spreading of the senti-
ment for unity throughout christendom
The bishops complain that while the theo-
logical schools are turning out many
graduates and candidates for orders are
about as numerous as ever, there is lack
of self-sacrificing men willing to spread the
faith in foreign and heather lands The
progress of the work among the Afro
Americans is noted and its needs pointed
out. The woes of the sister church in Ar
menia are sympathized with. The spirit
of unrest in the land is commented on
and the remedy for it is declared to be ac-
cessible In the church Fully third of
the letter is devoted TO discussion of Ger
tain tendencies in the church toward ritu-
alism, and on the other hand too great
liberality. Unauthorized methods of cell
ebrating communion and other offices of
the church are severely rebuked and the
letter makes this significant statement:
Between Two Tendencies.
I'VE are indeed between two perilous
tendencies. On the one hand there is
demand for concessions which will make
it easy for members of Christian bodies
not in communion with the church to
enter her ministry, to transfer themselves
bodily as congregations, with faint and
feeble guards of soundness in their forms
of worship. On the other there is plea
put forth by some to enter into negotia-
tions with the Bishop of Rome with a
view 70 reunion which is now known to
be possible only by absolute submission to
his unscriptural and unlawful demands
The wise thing for us to do Is to hold fast
to our position

Safe-Not Much Damaged.
kINcARDINE, Ont, Oct 22.-The fishing
tug Petrol, which was reported lost, with
all hands, while fishing in Saginaw bay,
reached here at o'clock in the afternoon
with the crew all safe. The tug was en-
gagged lifting the nets on the 18th when
her boilers gave out, and the tug was soon
rolling helplessly in the trough of the sea.
Late that day the schooner Kitchen was
sighted and distress signals displayed but
the schooner could not give any aid, as
the storm was then raging with great
fury. The provisions ran short, as the
boat had only been stocked for the day,
and for five days the tug drifted before
the storm. The men were nearly starved.
With the exception of her boiler, the tug
has not been damaged by her rough ex-
perience in drifting clear across Lake

follows

This surprising increase the super
intendent in communication to the
HERALD of Jan. 81, 1895 claims is due
TO permanent improvements.
This will explain some of the in
crease but not all of it. Making all
deductions for improvements and the
cost of maintaining the institutions
still shows considerable increase
But it seems to the writer that some
of the items that are quoted as inn
proyements should be considered only
as ordinary repairs. For instance in
the report for 1894 among the inn
provements are:
Walks around asylum.
Foundation to old wall.
Smuggling poor house.
Painting asylum.
Lumber and wire for fencing.
For 1895 there are.
New floors.
Lumber and paint.
Fence wire and fences.
Manifestly such expenses as these
must be expected year bv year and
belong under the head Of ordinary
running expenses
Nearly two years ago the county
added to its farm a rich tract of l23
acres which ought to enable the trust
ees to materially reduce expenses.
The bill for sundries this year
amounts to $40. According to the
report there were over 5000 expended
for drugs, medicines and medical at
tendance but an investigation into tn,
matter reveals the fact that many
