CHRISTIAN ELEMENT PREVAILS.
Chiefs of Police Decide to Have n
Chaplain.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., May b-The
morning session OF the Convention OF
Chiefs of Police was enlivened by sharp
contest on the advisability OF electing
chaplain. After short but interesting
debate the Christian element prevailed,
and the clause In the constitution pro-
viding that the meetings of the conven-
ton should be opened with prayer pre-
vailed by a close vote.
The discussion was precipitated
on motion to strike out this
clause by Chief Jansseir, Of Milwaukee.
Chief Oliver, OF Athens, Ga. cham
pioned the chaplaincy. and in his
remarks intimated that II there
was any department OF municipal govern
ment that needed divine aid and assist
ance II was the police department. The
contest was renewed later on, when an
other unsuccessful effort was made to
eliminate the chaplain from the list Of
regular officers.
The Committee on Patrol Service and
Arms reported that the system In use
i'm Philadelphia was the best, and re-
commended il for general adoption.
The convention will meet In Atlanta,
Ga, next year. Atlanta. Pittsburg. and
Colorado Springs were placed In nomina-
ton. Dallas and Fort Worth, Tex, were
withdrawn. The vote stood q for Pitts
burg and IS for Atlanta. but the southern
city won by the casting vote of President
Eldrdge, Of Boston.

wood Constitution, not because they liked
II. but because they were weary with
agitation. and had many other issues to
deal with, and now that II must come
In conflict with their necessities, and Is
likely to result In increasing their bur-
dcns. we deem II wise and expedient to
recommend q constitutional convention.
which Will thoroughly revise that crude
and unfit instrument under which we
live and give us a Constitution adapted
TO the condition of our State and the
necessities OF It's people
1t has been nearly half century since
the people OF Virginia had the benefit OF
a constitutional convention. composed Of
wise and substantial citizens, who were
Identified with them by every tie OF in
terest; and more than half OF that time
we have lived under a Constitution
framed by aliens and out Of keeping with
our changed and revolutionized affairs.
We are not lacking In true and wise men
who are capable Of graphing with all
the problems we have to deal with. and
we have all confidence that the people
would command and make sure OF their
services. Unless we take time by the
forelock and anticipate the difficulties
which confront US. II is obvious that
these difficulties will be enlarged and
multiplied. And for these and other rea-
sons we declare ourselves In favor Of a
constitutional convention. and recon-
mend that the General Assembly shall
submit the question Of holding such a
convention to the people just as soon as
in its judgment II may be expediently
done. all surroundings considered"
THE RESOLUTION ADOPTED.
In presenting the resolution Captain
Berkeley said that the motive of the
committee in submitting IL could never
be questioned. Old Virginia, he declared.
was loved by her people. At the close Of
the late war she found herself surround
ed by circumstances which forced her
sons to submit to burdens which they
would not have submitted to otherwise.
He asserted that the time had now come
when free-born Virgnians should throw
off the yoke which had so long held
them down.
Colonel l.. s. Marye said there were two
grounds on which he wished to endorse
the view expressed by Captain Berkeley.
One was that he was In favor of Kidding
the State Of the burdens OF an alien and
unsympathetic Constitution. The other
ground was the one that native-born
virginian had right to retain his SEN
timent. He thought the real question was
that Vrginian could not submit to
Constitution of that kind without losing
self-respect as a Virginian. We were de-
teriorating and losing our self-respect,
when we did not resist such damnabie
imposition.
on motion OF Mr. Stewart, the resolu-
ton was then adopted unanimously,
and the conference adjourned sine die.

II Prefers to Act Entirely Inde-
pendentIy of Men.


BALTIMORE, May l5.-The sixteenth
"a tniial meeting of the Executive Board OF
the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society
OF the Methodist Protestant Church was
begun to-day in the Lafayette-Avenue
Methodist church. Twenty-Five members
of the board were present. Mrs. NJ. a..
Cohouer. formerly missionary In Japan,
conducted the opening services.
The Rev. ID. Il. Colbourne, OF Lynch
burg, Va, the general missionary secre-
tary, delivered an address. In which he
suggested that II would be a good thing
to consolidate the regular Mission Board,
composed OF men. with the Women's Mis-
sion Board. and that the two boards
united should publish one instead of two
Methodist mission papers. The Rev. Mrs.
Englina st. John. of Kansas. in respond
ing to Mr.. Colbourne. smilingly said that
the women preferred to run their mission
work entirely Independent of the men.
They preferred this because the women
need this schooling in independent
thought. action. and work. They prefer
TO conduct their own paper. that IT
may reflect In its columns women's own
thoughts.
This evening Mrs. ]. Murray, of Balti-
more, conducted the religious service, and
Mrs. +. Brown. the president Of the board,
delivered an address.
