The Brooklyn trolley system seems
to be the Jugg,rnaut of our times,
having recently added the 12Sth vic
tim to its CHASTITY roll, Little Freddy
Goldner, only five years old, sent by
his sick mother tor loaf of bread,
with careful instructions to beware
OF the trolley, failed to see the car
which ran him down and crushed his
little body beneath its wheels, so
that he died in a few moments.
Something should he done SO that
these horrible mangling accidents
will cease.

BALL PLAYING IN THE STREETS.

1t is not an intreQuent sight to see
boys, and pretty big boys, too,
amusing themselves by playing vari-
Gus games in which balls form an
important part, in our streets.
Many people have serious objections
to this amusement, and their objlc'
tons should have consideration.
The annoyance to people driving,
and the risk OF frightening horses is
not slight, and i'll the interests OF
public order the practice should be
given up. AS to the question OF
places to play in, there are Others, p"
and boys should not consider it a
hardship to keep off the public streets
when they desire to play ball OF any
kind.

timely warning and encouraging comfort
In their pastoral letter put forth last No

ties OF the faith, viz, the Incarnation and
Resurrection of our Lord, and the In

All the clergy except one were present,
and far delegation of laymen Mr.. Ii.
Folger, of Port.nnd was elected sicreta-
ry and he appointed the Rev. w. e. Pot
wine assistant secretary.
Deputies TO the General Convention,
which meets in Minneapolis in October
next, were elected as follows:
The Rev. Geo. B. VanWaters of Port
land, Rev. WE. Potwine, of Pendleton,

VIM. Seymour Short, of Astoria; the lay
men elected were Mr.. S. H. Gruber, OF
Portland, Mr.. John McCracken, Of Port
land, Prof. ]. d. Letcher, of Corvallis,
DR.. Jay Tuttle, of Astoria.
The other elections remained as last
year. with few exceptions. The members
Of the standing committee which is the
ecclesiastical authority Of the church
in the absence of the bishop, were chos-
en- as follows: The Rev. Geo. B. Van
Waters, Rev. w. E. Potwine, Rev. VIM

AT THE CONGREGATIONAL.

How do the CongregadonaliSts d,ffsr
from other Christian churches?
The Episcopalian, Presbyterian, and
Methodist churches are all highly organ
lied communions; they have archbishops
and bishops, convocations and synods,
conferences and assemblies. They have
theological standards, authorized cate
ch.sms, confessions and creeds, to which
appeals may be made in times of contro-
versy. Nothing is left ihapha7ard Every
thing is in black and white.
Now from all this Congregationalism
takes a sharp and decisive departure. II
is a democratic form of church govern
ment. It derives it's name from the
prominence which it gives to the congre>
cation of Christian believers. 1t vests
all ecclesiastical power (under Christi, in
the associated brotherhood Of each local
church as an independent body
Its fundamental principle is the follow
Ing. The Bible, interpreted by sanctfied
common sense. with all wise helps from
nature, from history, from all knowledg=,
and especially from the revealing Spirit,
is the only, and sufficient, and authorita-
tive guide in all matters of Christian
practice, as 1t Is in all matters of
Christian faith; 50 that whatever the
Bible teaches by precept. example. or le>

all men, at all times; while nothing whlcn
it does not SO teach can be imperative
at any time.
Besides this one fundamental principle,
we have other subordinate principles:

DIOCESAN CONTENTION.
Meeting Of Divines in Portland and Their
Proceedings.


The Seventh Annual Convention of the
Protestant Episcopal church in the Di-
osce of Oregon, being The AID Of the
church in this state, was held in st.
Marks church, Portland, on Thursday
Friday and Saturday last. A full choral
service with a portion of the Bishop's
address were the order for Thursday
evening, and after the Holy Communion
and the delivery of the remainder OF
the Bishops address the convention or
ganized for business Friday morning.
The reports in the address were encour-
aging for dull year as the last has
been, The combinations with one excsp-
ton were larger than those of any other
year.
The missionary work in Oregon has
grown in almost every direction, particu-
larly in the neighborhood of the city of
Portland. where two new churches have
been built and two more are under way
for completion this summer. The number
of clergy is 16, with two only in the
whole part of the state east Of the Cas-,
cade mountains.
The woman's Auxiliary and the Junior
Auxiliary to the Board Of Missions, have
done good work in offerings and boxes
during the past twelve months. and the
st. Andrews brotherhood has widely ex>
tended the usefulness Of the church
among young men.
The schools. considering the dullness OF
the times are in prosperous condition,
both as considering the number Of pu-
pills and the financial condition. The Good
Samaritan Hospital treated within one
OF two as many patients as last year
9S9-which was then reported to have
been one-half as many as were treated
by st. Lukeis. in New York City. Fully
one-thirti OF these were free patients. an
other third were part pay. only one-third
being full pay. All Of these represent
nearly every nation and religious creed,
The bishop laid great stress on the
subject of much Of the popular preaching
Of tQ1e day, and denounced as he should
have done the preaching OF anything in
our churches excepting the Gospel OF our
Lord Jesus Christ.
He also warned the members OF the
church % take heed' lest they go one OF
more steps too far IN the mater OF en-
tertainments for raising money for
church purposes and advised the con-
ventlon to draw UP suitable resolutions
thanking the House OF Bishops for their

AT GRACE CHURCH.
Morning Service an Elaboration Of the
Theme of Trinity Sunday.


At Grace church Sunday morning, by
request, the Rev. Mr.. Short again de-
livered his sermon of Trinity Sunday eve.
The text was taken from the 17th verse
of the 23rd chapter OF Isaiah, 'The King
in His Beauty"
The first article of religion in the prayer
book states that there are three persons
in the God-head, the trinity of Father,
Son and Holy GhoSt-three. persons in one
substance. The speaker dwelt upon the
beauties of the Trinity TN One, stating
that the identical words of the prayer
book had been in use for over 1900 years
and that tlhe mystery of the Trinity was
one of the accepted doctrines of the Holy
Catholic church, trusted and tried. In
the course of his sermon the speaker
quoted that beautiful poem of John
Keble's, which well expresses the CEN
trail thought of the trinity:
Creator, Savior, strengthening Guide,
Now on Thy mercy's ocean wide
Far out of sight we seem to glide.
Hep us, each hour, with stea1ier eye
To search the deepening mystery,
The wonders of Thy sea and sky.
The blessed angels look and long
To praise Thee with a worthier song,
And yet our silence does Thee wrong.
Along the churchs central space
The sacred weeks with unfelt pace,
Have borne us from grace to grace.
AS travellers on some woodland height,
When wintry suns are cleaning bright,
Lose in arch'd glades their tangled
sight;
BY glimpses such as dreamers love
Through her gray veil the leafess grove
Shows where the distant shadows rove;
Such trembling joy the soul o'erawes
AS Nearer to Thy shrine she draws:-
And now before the choir We pause.
The door is clos'd-but soft and deep
Around the awful arches sweep,
Such airs as. soothe a hermit's sleep.
From each carv'd nook and fretted bend
Cornce and gallery seem to send
Tones that with seraph hymns might
blend.
Three solemn parts together tHine
In harmony's mysterious line;
Three solemn alsleS approach tn
shrine.
Yet are One-together all,
In thoughts THAT awe but not appall,
Teach the adorirg heart to fail.
Within these walls each fluttering
guest
Is gently lur'd to one safe nest
Without, tbs moaning and unrest.
The busy worrd Thousand ways
Is hurrying by nor never stays
To catch a note OF Thy dear praise.
Why tarrdes mot her chariot wheel,
That Ger her with no vain appsal
One gust of heavenly song might stead.
Alas! for her Thy opening flowers
Unheeded breathe to summers showers,
Unheard the music of Thy bowers.
What echoes from the sacred dome
The selfish spirit may o'ercome
That win not hear of love or home!
The heart that scorned a fathers care,
How can it rise In filial prayer?
How an all-seeing Guardian bear?
Or how shall envious brethren own
A brother on tn eternal throne,
Their Fathers joy, their hope alone?
How shall Thy Spirits gracious vile
The suIien brow Of gloom begmle,
That frowns on sweet affections smile? !?
Eternal One Almighty Trinel
(S.nce Thou art ours, and we are Thine)
BY all Thy love did once resign.
By all the grace Thy heavens still hide,
We pray Thee, keep us at Thy side,
Creator, Savior strengthening Guidel
