"a Breezy rime,, Tonight.

Fitz and Webster's "a Breezy Time, !"
which will be seen at the Academy OF
Music to night, is described as farce
comedy with an abundance Of fun and
paucity of serious interest. In other
words, its purpose is to divert rather
than to engross the attention. 1t bellies
the general opinion that farce comedy
cannot have a coherent plot. In point
of fact, it has theme of interest that
runs throughout the entire play, an
that IS only strong enough to hang
upon it series of speciality per-
formances of a high order and
enjoyable nature E. B. Fitz is the
principal comedian of the company. He
weighs over three hundred pounds, and
it can be seen, therefore, that a very
considerable amount Of the amusement
that he causes is due quite as much to
bis ayoirdnpois as to his antics. Miss

ed in New York, that tire convention put
an end 10 the question by It's action in
refusing to adopt a resolution, ad
vocated by Dr.. Huntington in
great speech, providing for
the admission into m m0ersAip Of the
Episcopal Oh1ych Of ministers and Goa
gfegatioi of other churches on certain
tef ms named in the resolutions.
The majority OF the Convention, by
their votes, determined that conforming
to the services of the Prayer Book, as
now required Of our ministers, must be
prerequisite TO admission. Mr. Battle
agrees with Dr.. Huntington that the idea
OF unity, presented by our bishops at
Chicago in 1885, in the quadriateral,
slightly seconded by the Lambeth con
ference, Is in the air and will not down;
that the CoDgregati0nalists at Syracuse
have presented their terms of union, and
even the Pope of Rome has issued an en-
cycllcal upon it; and that somehow

A GRAVE BLUNDER.
That is What the Ten Days Holiday in
the Public Schools at This Time Is.

the Public Schools at This Time Is.
The long vacation given to enable the
teachers of the public schools to visit the
Atlanta Exposition has been severely
criticized 1t must be confessed that it
was a mistaken course to pursue. The
Superintendent was not we'll advised,
and doubtless thought, from intorma
ton that came to him, that many of the
children desired to go. 1t turned out
that very few children visited Atlanta,
and the SUSPENSION Of the schools for
ten DAYS interferes with their studies.
The arrangement is that the term will
last ten days longer next spring, but
warm spring school days are not so de
sirable as crisp autumn days.
The chief criticism was directed at the
teachers for leaving Raleigh during State
Fair week, indicating lack OF interest
in this great State enterprise which is of
great advantage to Raleigh. There is
force in this criticism, and the action OF
the school authorities is open to grave
criticism for this action.
The NEWS AND OBSERVER believes In
Raleigh's public school; honors the IN
selfish Sch ol Board, and respects the
faithful teachers. Il is gratifying to know
that it is very seldom that this jour
nal has felt called upon to offer
any criticism upon the management. lie
has been wise and free from necessity OF
public criticism. But in this instance
the ten days holiday to enable the teach
ers to attend the Educational Congress
at Atlanta was grave blunder.

division Of section or of party, differing
in this respect from the great Protestant
Christian denominations; aud at the
sarnetime it is an autonomous national
church free from any foreign DONNA
ton; In this differing from the Great
Roman communion in America, which is
only mission under the control of its
Italian head.
Tt is also body notable for the char
acter of its members. Not to speak OF the
Bishops and clergy, it would be hard
to find such another body of
men, eminent and distinguished in every
department of public business and social
of our American life, as the lay deputies
from the Diocases all over the United
States. In his own brief expression as
clerical deputy from this Diocese, the
Bishop said he had sat in the General
Convention with two Chief Justices of
the United States. and with men like
Mr. Edmunds, of Vermont, and the late
Mr. Hendricks of Indiana. Our own
Diocese of North Carolina has sent as it's
laymen a long list OF distinguished men.
Judges Cameron, Rufiin and Battle, Mr.
Josiah Collins, Gen. Sam. G. Patterson,
DIR. DeRosset, and in the other Diocesas
it has been the same classes of men, the
very highest type of Christians and Of
citizens, who constitute the Lay elements
in the General Conventions.
There is very oftena feeling OF disap
pointment at the close Of the General
Convention, because so little legislative
action has beenfaken. The Convention Of
1895 was called upon to deal with the
report of largo and able commission
which had bsen appointed in 1892 to re
cast the whole constitutional and caponi
cal fabric Of the church. 1t has adj
iourned, and almost nothing OF the pro
posed work has been accomplished. But
It lis an old aud q wise observation that
those countries are happiest which have
the least history, and the church may be
the better for the want Of fre qu.nt
| chang in It's laws. One or two small
but important improvems nts were intro
duced and carried through, but most Of
| the work was LEFT for the future. The
| discussions, however, have been useful
in educating public sentiment aud IN
| preparing the mind of the church for
such changes as may hereafter seem de-
| sirable.
I One rather small matter aroused great
er interest aud a greater opposition than
might have been looked for; that was the
proposition to substitute the word 'Pri
mate" for Presiding Bishop" 1t was
feared BY many that the word 'tPrimatef
carried with it some elements of praoti
cal assumption. IN fact it does not, and
| it must eventually become the title of the
administrative head and representative
OF the church in its national capacity. be.
cause it is the only word which actually
expressed that which our senior bishop
is. He has ceased TO be, in fact, the pre-
siding bishop. The good old English
word Pfimate Is what he is, what he IL Il

FOR THE OLD VETERANS.
Clothing No Longer Useful TO the
Guards 70 be Made Useful for the In~
mates of the Soldiers Home.

Maj. Grimes, Inspector General of the
State Guard, has recently held an in
spection of large lot Of clothing that
has accumulated from the Guard, and
pronounced it no longer of service to the
Guard, and recommends that the lot be
turned over TO Mr. W. g. stronach,
chairman of the executive committee of
the Soldiers Home. to be issued to the
veterans at the Soldiers Home.
The clothing is all to be thoroughly
renovated and dyed uniform color. IL
will make warm, neat suits, and will
protect tie old soldiers against the cold
of winter. Besides the suits, each vete-
ran vii be furnished with a neat over
coat made of .he same material. The
Soldiers Home has not before been able
to provide top coats for its inmates.
The credit for the practical charity is
mainly due to General Z. FL. Cameron,
Adiutant General of the State Guard.

MAY BE RELEASED TO-DAY.
Arranging Settlement Of the Lainc
Difficulty.


There is probability that J. H.
Laine, the much-talked-about Laurel
Hill park manager will be released
from the county Jail during today. At
all events, the amusement manager will
have his liberty, so his creditors say.
provided he agrees to certain stipula-
tions which they will impose.
A committee will visit MIR. Laine at
the Jail today and will agree to furnish
bail for him provided he in turn agrees
not 10 prosecute some OF the creditors
for Offering fraudulent accounts. The
imprisoned manager has said he will
leave his bones inside the Jail walls
rather than make such a concession,
and is flat-footed in his determination
to prosecute r. NJ. Alexander, who man
aged the parks cigar stand.
Alexander was owed over $50 for
wages and he took this sum, SO Mr..
Laine stated at one of the hearings,
frSm the cigar stand receipts on July 4.
The manager claims further that Alex
ander said at the hearing that he
elaine was "a quack doctor and was
run out of California" 1t is on the

Mr.. BURNS LIBEL SUIT.
Papers in His Action Against Attorney
Smith Filed on Saturday.

At noon Saturday the papers were
filed in Prothonotary Pryor's office
which instituted a suit of $4,000 for
libgel against Attorney Cornelius Smith
and his noteworthy client, John G. Jen-
nings, ofNiinooka, Attorney I. H. Burns.
the plaintiff. Attorneys Major Everett
Warren, Joseph O'Biien and John p.
Kelley are the legal representatives Of
Mr.. Burns.
Along with the praecipe and declara-
ton a rule of reference was also filed.
The praecipe is the paper that gives the
names Of the plaintiff and defendant
as well as the title of the suit; the dec
laration is another paper. containing
the history of the case, or rather the
bill of complaint.
The rule of reference is a proceeding
which asks for the appointment of three
arbitrators, who will try the case, and
II they give Mr.. Burns an award 1t will
be entered as a lien against the prop
erty of the defendant. Smith may ap-
peal from the award. which will bring
the case to trial in court before jury.
The reason that the plaintiff is de-
sirous Of getting the suit tried before
arbitrators is because the laws delay
will prevent from going to trial for at
least two years on account of the
crowded condition of the civil calendar.
Aug. "a. at 10 a. M, was fixed as the
time for selecting the arbitrators
Another reason for hurrying along the
suit is that Mr.. Burns wants to be vim
dicated from the base charges brought
against him. The declaration filed Sat
urday is a voluminous document; 1t first
goes on to state that by virtue of the
accusations made against the plaintiff
by Mr.. Smith he is brought into public
disgrace, contumely and scorn.
The paper book filed by Mr.. Smith,
and now part of the Supreme court
records. is the basis of the suit. The
charges made therein against Mr.
Burns, the late Judge John +. Connolly
Deputy Prothonotary Myron j. Kasson
| and ex-Sheriff John j. Fahey have
been set forth substantially in The
| Tribune.

The only articles so far ascertained to
