STREET RAILWAYS IN ENGLAND.
How Birmingham Looks Closely After the
 Interests of Her Citizens

How Birmingham Looks Closely After the
 Interests of Her Citizens
 George Francis Trains famous at. tempts to introduce tramways in the British towns in l SG0 did not neglect Birmingham, says pr. Albert Shaw in his 'MuAicipal Government In Great Britain" Mir. Train was granted an ex- perimental concession. which ho failed to utilize, and in 1861 tho corporation itself obtained parliamentary authority to build tramways. But nothing was done until after the general tramways act of 1870 was passed.
 At length, in 1873, the council laid the first limo at n cost of $15. 900 and leased it for seven years to an operating company. From time to timo other lines have been built and leased, but tho cor poration's limits included only s, 400 acres until Nov. 9, 1891, when they were increased to l2, 365 acres by tho annexation of suburbs then containing some 50, 900 people. Thus when the corporations street railway system was under construction the average distance from tho center to tho CirCumfCr- ence of Birmingham was only two miles, and 22 miles of tram lines aro tho total extent of tho municipal ownership. Out side of the City's jurisdiction the Opcrat- ing companies have extended the lines by q still greater mileage. In the future undoubtedly thVSo extensions will hc nc QuirCd by tn" Birmingham corporation at fair valuation, in accordance with tho methods prescribed in tho general | tramways act Tho present. municipal l.. or and i'll part ly steam. with cable and electricity also introduced on certain ] routes
 Tho terms of rental arc worthy of ! mention: The leasing companies aSrro to pay prr cent on tho full mu. niCipIl investment for tho first I years of tho lra>o and 1 lNr cent for tho rc- mainiug seven years. The cu!upanirs also pay nn annual sum which at com, l puEnd imtt r,st will accumulate n fund | equal to the MArlr capital outlay at the | end of tho 2l wears lua~v It is CalCu- | lated and agreed that | per cent for II | years and ; pr cent for the remaining l seven years will suffice to raise tho full amount ut cAlltM MvauwhiIr also the ComVam,s pay all current charges for repairs and maintCnanru uf tho lines upon receiving bills certified ly tho city surveyor. IL should lr remembered that Birmingham Is ablo to borrow Ut very low ratrs and 1t is clear that these terms are profitable tu tho municipality,
 At the end of th" , years the earning valuo of the franchiS,s will have in creased, aEd new leases can hr executed on terms still more advantageous to the city But while Birmingham has thus protected th' rAtrpayrrs so handsomely It has accomplished even more ill the guarding of the interests of the travel iu;; puhhc Every detail as to rates of fare and character of service is described in the bylaws and regulations that the companies EHNo to accept The minute n,>, tho requirements touching duties anI v,uUuCt t drivers and conductors,

THE TOUCH IN PIANO PLAYING.
A Flexible Hand and an Ear For Tone
 Color Necessary For Best Results.

A Flexible Hand and an Ear For Tone
 Color Necessary For Best Results.
 There arc two things necessary to those who would cultivate good touch: One is a hand favorable; the other an ear delicate enough to detect the varia- tions of tone color. Given q stiff hand no possible will or pains taken by the student will cultivate n good touch. The playing of those unfortunate in this re- spect will always remain harsh and uu- sympathetic, but given a flexible hand and an GIT for tone color and there is no goal to which tho student cannot ar rive with hard work. Nor does it mat ter, onco tioNibility is assured, what the shape of the hand is, according to a writer in The Musical Courier, who de- scrihes Chopin'S hands as thin and small with taporing fingers, and Rubin stein's as coarse, with fingers long and thick. He says:
 Judging therefore from ChOpin's hand and RubiuStein's, it would Svum as if tho shape or formation of the hand mat tors little. Tho long, thin hand will. for instance, find lightningliko arpcggii bagatelle, and the other. like Rubin stein's and Tausig's, with natural slope from the third to the fifth fingers, will do startling work in octaves. But for touch fiexihility is tho chief test, for it is in the stroke of the finger, its lightnoss or strength, and every grada- tion of the samo, that the secret lies. Once the key is down, no earthly power can produce any effect by tho most per feet tremolo ever worked by tho finger on the ivory. Once down, the only grad ation ill tone possible is by tho uso of tho pedals.
 As regards natural touch. it will be most generally found that it is really another name for fiexibility of finger. To the student touch is tho last and hardest stumbling block in the difficult Parnassus he has set himself to climb. From bad piano tho majority of piano students will never draw forth tones that can satisfy, but in the modern grands of trustworthy makers they will find with study mino of tono poetry | that is limitlCsS.

THE EPISCoPALIANs.

By a vote that leaves no ground for
belief that an amicable agreement can
BE- reached, the House of Deputies
of the Episcopal General Convention at
Minneapolis placed itself on Saturday
on record in opposition to the plan OF
the Bishops for dividing the territory
OF Japan and erecting new missionary
bishopric, with headquarters at Kyoto.
Rev. J. M. Francis, who was elected by
the House of Bishops for the new Jap
anese bishopric, is member of the
English monastic order of the Cowley
Fathers, who take VOW of chastity,
poverty and obedience. There is a
rooted objection to selecting any bishop
who owes allegiance to father supe-
rior in England. In the debate, how
ever, no reference was made to the OPP
POSITIONS real reason.
An amendment providing for court
of appeals reported favorably in the
House of Deputies, was referred to the
special committee in charge Of the con-
stitutional revision pending the next
convention.
The proposition to use only the form
"Jesus' and "Jesu" in the prayer-book
and hymnal was laid on the table.
The House of Bishops refused to con-
cur in the resolution inserting the ma
tional hymn America" in the hymnal
on the ground of the expense that
would be incurred, and the confusion
involved.
The House of Bishops discussed the
canon on marriage and divorce. The
canon differs materially from the one
first proposed, reading as follows:
"Sectlon 1. No minister of this church
shall solemnize the marriage of any
person who has divorced husband or
wife still living, but this prohibition
shall not be held to apply to the inno-
cent party in divorce for the cause of
adultery or to parties once divorced
from each other seeking to unite again.
The evidence of adultery must be found
in the records of the court"
2. IL all causes of doubt as to the
facts, or as to the pastoral duties arts.
ing under this canon, the Cody cour=
sci of the bishop shall be sought and
followed.
The cannon will receive no further
action at this session as the bishops
voted to refer it to the committee on
revision of canons.
