BIssELL HAS HIS PICTURE TAKEN.
He Incidentally Comments on Brides
and GrOOms in Washington.


Washington, April A-Ex-P Postmaster
General Bissell and four assistants post
master general were recently photo
graphed by a local artist. 1t is customary
for the heads of the various departments
TO be photographed in a group during
their term Of service, but it appears that
Mr.. Bissen overlooked the time-honored
customs about photographs. Some of his
critics are severe enough to insinuate that
his retirement from the head of the postal
service was not voluntary, otherwise he
would have been photographed before he
left the department. Mr. BisseH does not
appear to be the least disturbed by the
comments made upon him while he was
IN puDllc lie, anu he does not hesitate
to say that he rejoices that he is again
a private citizen. In recalling his eXpe-
renee IN the postottice department, he
says the Saduest duty he was called upon
to perform was to remove or reduce a
number of old clerks who had grown
practically worthless in the service. When
ne entered the department IL was his am
oltlon 10 reorganize the postal service,
so far as he was able on a strictly BUSH
ness basis. worthy and efficient employees
were to be advanced and incompetents
were expected to give way in favor of
younger and more efficient people. In a
number or instances he says he did not
nave the heart to dismiss some of the
people whom he found out were utterly
useless in the positions they were then
holdlng ana drawing salaries. His sympa-
thies were aroused to such an extent
that instead of carrying out MS
original intention of removing ali
those who did not come up
TO his standard he could not refrain
from retaining some of the old
veterans of the service at reduced
compensation. He says the life of
the average government employee, as rep
resented in Washington is pitiful because
of the deadening influence Office life has
upon the ambitions of both men and wo-
men. AS rule they live right up to the
extreme of their income and when they
become old and incapacitated they cannot
realize that their usefulness to the govern
ment is past.
Gen. Bissell is not naturally of a melan-
choly disposition. On the contrary ne
would rather listen to a good story or tell
one himself than discuss public affairs
From the troubles that beset the office
holding class, he turned the conversation
into the matrimonial channel and proceed
ed to comment upon the numerous we'd
dings during the present season. He had
just returned from the Letter Curzon nun
tials ana his thoughts were on the subject
of brides and grooms. Why" said he his
big round face beaming with jolly smile
Il never saw so many brides and grooms
at one time in my life as there are at the
Arlington hotel There are at least fifty
and the proprietor of the house charges
them at the rate of SO a pair per day and
more tkan half of that amount is clear
profit, for they do not eat anything but
sponge cake and ice cream during the first
few days of their honey MOON"

MAKING SLOW PROGRESS
Episcopal Convention Far Behind in
Revising the Constitution.
No Cha nee of Its Completion So That
Dioceses Can Certify Their Views
10 Washington IN 1898.

MINNEAPOLIS. Oct f3-The nearer the gen.
eral convention of the Episcopal Church
approaches final Adjournment the more
improbable does it appear that sufficient
progress can be made on the consideration
OF the revised constitution and canons to
enable the completed document Ia be sub
uiitted to the various dioceses, and thus en-
able them 10 certify tnelr approNal or us
approval to The irlennlai convention at
Washing Ton IN 1885.
One-half of The period within which the
bcdy il seXpected to transact Its business ana
dissolve has expired, ana the net result
OF nearly two weeks la Dor, apart from the
transaction of routine business winch called
for no great expenditure ot time, Is the
adoption of three articles OF the constitu-
ton, covering two pages of the report, ana
leaving seven additional articles, together
with fifty-four canons, covering some eighty
pages, yet to be dealt with.
In that portion of tine Constitution which
has stiil to rua the gauntlet OF the econlniittee
of the whole, there is moreover number OF
propositions that may be subjected to as
much debate and vigorous antdgopIsm as
was expended during the past week upon
the int oductory sections. Among them is
article 3, in many respects the most import
ant one of the revision, and which, In
laying down the doctrine that the general
convention is the supreme legislative body
of the church, gives to 1T the exclusive
power to enact canons defining the offenseS
for which bishops, presby iers ana deacons
may be tried; and defining the MODE OF triai:
provision Ior the trial OF bishop by
bishops only, on the ground that the diocese
to which a bishop belongs, ,having right and
title to his services, should not be deprived
of them by proceeding in which they have
had neither voice nor standing. SO also
with the proposal to establish a final court
of appeals in niatters OF doctrine, and with
the list of subjects upon which the general
convention is given exclusive power 10
legislate.
Members of the commission say that a
strong effort will be made, by limiting
debate or through other methods, to get
through the constitution by the middle of the
week, but even then it wiliD Deanimpossibility
to attempt to touch the canons and without
the one the other is useless, so far as it
concerns the action of the dioceses. To
the revisionists the prospect Is anything
but pleasant, but their opponents are very
we'll satisfied with the Outolok.
