elected as chairman, or vice president.
Rev. DIR. Hart, of Hartford, was

MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 5.-The prospect
of battle royal over the disposition to
be made of the revision report brought
the clerical and lay delegates to the
Episcopal convention out in force
at Gethsemane church Thursday
morning, while the galleries were
crowded with local and visiting church
men and churchwomen. At the out
set of the session DR.. Dix announced
the committees on the state of the
church, new dioceses, canons, the
prayer-book and other subjects to be
brought before the convention.
After much discussion resolution
of fraternal greeting was voted sent
to the Methodist conference of north
ern Minnesota, in session few
blocks away. This is the first time
in the history of a general
convention of the Episcopal church
that greetings have been sent to a
conference of another denomination,
and the action is regarded as signifi-
cant mark of the advance of Christian
unity.
When the hour arrived for the spe-
cial order DR.. Hoffman in behalf of the
revision commission made brief ex-
planatory statement. Himself and
his associates, he said, would have
been gladly relieved of the
responsibility, but once having
accepted the trust they had endeavored
to discharge it to the best of their
ability. The house resolved itself into
a committee of the whole to hear and
consider the report.
In committee of the whole at the
Thursday afternoon session, the
house of deputies threw overheard
bodily the solemn declaration
of faith with which the pro-
posed new constitution and canons
was prefaced; refused to concur in
the recommendation of the committee
that the name of the trienial gather
ing be changed to the General Synod"
and likewise twice rejected a
proposition to recognize the title
1.-The Protestant Episcopal Church
in the United States" The over
whelming victory of the anti-revision-
lists in the matter of the declaration of
faith and principles and upon which
the commission of 1892 had expended
much time, thought and labor, ap-
parently demoralized it's supporters,
and to the motion to reject the new
name of the assemblage they made but
feeble resistance.
The anti-revisionists abandoned their
intention of endeavoring to shelve the
report at the outset, and, as the docu-
ment, when re-revised by the present
gathering, must be submitted 70 every
diocesan convention in the United
States for it's action, the contest be-
tween the two elements will necessari-
ly be renewed in the convention of
'9s. Meanwhile the old constitution
remains in force.

SHORT ON WHEAT.
Scarcity of Good Milling Grain May Clos
Many Mills.


ST. LOUIS, Oct. 5.-According to the
general belief there is scarcity in
this market of good milling wheat,
No. 2 and 3 soft winter wheat, of
which grade it is said there is not to
exceed 100000 bushels unsold in pub
lie elevators. The mills in Tennessee,
Kentucky, Missouri and Illinois have
been sending to st. Louis recently for
this wheat, and in many instances pay
ing December prices for spot stock. In
addition the mills have been securing
their tributary country for good wheat.
The opinion is expressed by we'll
posted millers and grain men that by
January 1 many of the mills, in the
country not far away from the large
grain centers, will be forced to close
for want of milling wheat.

disappeared, April 3. We talked
about books and I promised to bring a
book for her to the prayer meeting
that night. Miss Lamont did not APP
pear at prayer meeting and the follow
ing Friday | took the book to her house
and gave it to her sister. The latter
told me hat Blanch had gone to school
evidently trying to keep the fact of her
disappearance secret. That is all l
know of the Lamont case. The last
time | saw Minnie Williams was three
weeks ago." ..4.
I When confronted by the evidence
that Miss Williams purse had been
found in his pocket, Durant gave the
following explanations: 81 was going
home from DR.. Vogle's Friday night
| when my foot struck a small object on
the sidewalk. l picked it up and
found that it was a small pocket mir
ror. Near by a purse, which I also
picked up and put in my pocket. l
me, intending to tell my parents of my
find. 1t was late, however, and I went
right to bed. | was in a hurry to get
away with the signal corps and forgot
all about it."
The police take exception to Durant's
statement that he had not seen Miss
Williams for three weeks. They say
they a prove that he saw her on
Monday or Tuesday and possibly later.
From all appearances Miss Lamont
was murdered in the room where her
body was found. The body had been
dragged up the belfrey stairs and into
the tower room. Her clothing was
found stuffed into various of
the room. About the time this norm
ing that Miss Lamont's body was found
the congregation of Emanuel church
were on their way to attend the Easter
services for which elaborate prepare
ton had been made.
When they arrived, however, and
learned of the frightful crime, they fled
horror stricken from the spot. The
church was locked and guarded by the
police all day. In his statement to the
police, Rev. DR.. Gibson asserts his be.
lief in Durant's innocence, but is
unable to offer any theory as to the
actual perpetratOr of the crime. This
: much can be said for Durant. He did
not act like a guilty man when arrest
ed, and his preparations to leave with
} the signal corps were made without
concealment and before the murder Of
, Miss Williams. Even the police are
forced to admit hat it seems incredi
BILE that he would commit such
crime unless afflicted by a mania fol
that sort of work.

guiding, supplying motion, correcting
all the gyrations of the tricky, two
wheeled imp, landing the frightened
girl safely on her feet. if she loses her
grip for an instant and feels as if she
would give the world to feel solid
ground.
Under some one of the stately trees
that over hang the avenue you may be
sure of seeing at almost any hour OF
bright morning, johnson, cool, placid,
faithfully examining pneumatic tire,
and beside him, rather flushed but with
grim determination written on her
face, an heiress of millions, weary but
not abashed, getting ready for another
go.
When a Philadelphia or a Southern
belle catches the Newport infection and
goes out with johnson she is apt to tie
q heavy brown or dark blue veil over
her face, so thick that she cannot be
recognized. But after day or two she
comes back to white gauze with black
spots, for somehow she finds. out that
it is correct, though it may seem ridicu-
lous to learn to "bike" in public.
To appear ashamed of what is correct
is not good form. This isione reason
why girls in Newport learn very
quickly to ride. Since it is fashionable
to take their tumbles in the main high
way, they mount their wheels with q
desperation which does bravely in place
of courage, and when they fall they
pick themselves up or suffer themselves
to be picked up by johnson, with a
smile. The method is Spartan but it
works without fail.
johnson is busy man. He is the
most good natured of his good
natured race, very strong, very gentle
and very patient. Miss Vanderbilt
seems even more perversely bent than
other young women on running into
| the curb or making sudden demon
stration under the heels of high-step-
ping tandem, but johnson trots along
serenely Mt her side on the watch for
ali such little freaks Of u perverted in
clination and prompt to avert the
casualties that might result from them
Miss Cosuelo Vanderbilt did not ride
