NOTED to the Episcopacy, or should
both be so fortunate, there would be no
difficulty in getting men to take up
their work. Probably, in that case.
one of the new missionary secretaries
would be taken from New England, In
the event of additions to the Episcopal
force there is almost certain to be a
vacancy in the Western book concern,
for Earl Cranston was nearly elected
eight years ago, and he would surely
have been made bishop had any been
chosen four years ago, For this posi-
BILE vacancy Dr. Lasby of Nebraska is
being urged, as also Is DR. Il, d. Whit
lock of Ohio, not to mention other good
ministers, while among laymen the
most likely of election, should he con-
sent to run, would be George B. john
son, the longtime cashier of the West
ern House
For the vacancy in the New York
Publishing house, candidates are very
numerous Many think DR., ]. M. King
ought to get it; others that 1t may be
captured by DR.. G. P. Mains of Brook.
Ign; still others, that DR.. A. j. Palmer
of New York, or DR.. Graw of New Jer-
sey may walk off with the prize. But
here again the laymen are to be reck-
oned with. Charles r. Magee of Bos-
ton would fill the bill admirably, many
think, and there are others who say
that DR.. H. X Carroll, or r. r. Doher-
ty should be chosen.
The only thing which could prevent
the reelection Of DR.. ]. w. Hamilton,
or DR.. j. c. Hartzell, or DR.. W. A.
Spencer to the prominent positions
they now hold would be the possible
success of those who are pushing them
strenuously for the Episcopal office.
DR. c. II. Payne Is sure and worthy
winner for reelection to the board of
education, as also is DR.. J. l.. Hurlbut
for continuance at the head of Sunday
school interests.
Should any bishops be elected, which
the conference itself must decide, the
number will probably be four, exclu-
sive of several possible missionary
bishops. Most of those prominently
canvassed for the office are men who
hold official positions already. Some of
these have mentioned. Others whose
names are in the air are DIR. s. +. Up
ham, professor in Drew seminary,
chancellor Lay Oh oyIacuSS uhiNeI0itS'
President Buttz of Drew. Dr. W. v.
Kelley of the Methodist Review, DR.. G.
w. Smith of the Pittsburg Advocate,
President George e. Reed of Dickinson
college, President j. w. Bashford of
Ohio Wesleyan, and President G. j.
Little of Gerrett Biblical Institute.
When, however, it comes to selecting
men from the pastorate, as the confer
ence will surely see the propriety OF
doing, it will be Impossible to overlook
such men as DR.. William Mast Brod-
beck of Boston and DR.. Frank II. Bris-
toll of Chicago, the former of whom
represents admirably the Evangelistic
pre-eminence of the Methodist minis
try and the latter of whom is a good
representative of its more purely intel
lectual tendencies. But really, there
arc so many good men and true think
ing of themselves, or being talked OF by
others, for the various offices to be
filed, and especially for the Episcopa-
cy. that the list here offered is impress
sive only by reason Of its exceeding
hrevity H. T.

Reached After Collision With scow-

Reached After Collision With scow-
 Passengers All Taken Off ir,sa Tug.
 New York. July 14.-The Steamship Colorado of the Mallory steamship line, engaged in the Georgia-F Florida ser vice, is beached in twenty-one feet of water on the tail of the west bank in the lower bay. She was coming up the bay at o'clock this morning when she collded with garbage scow in tow, outward bound, to dump her load. The port bow of the Colorado was so badly damaged that no time was lost in bleaching the steamship. The water now is about level with her upper deck.
 When the Sandy Hook with her big load Of passengers from the Jersey coast came up a little after ' o'clock there was much excitement aboard as she passed the Colorado. The steam ship was so low in the water that it
 was seen at once that she had been beached. The opinion of the officers on the Sandy Hook was that the Colorado had been on fire, had been filled with water and run aground. Although the Mallory line officers, at their offices, 40
 Burling slip, professed to have no offi- cial knowledge of the accident, they said that the collision simply stove hole in the bow and that all it would be necessary to do would be to raise and patch up the hole. Then she would be as good as new.
 Captain Burrows commands the Colo- rado. He left Brunswick, Ga, on Fri day last with heavy cargo of lumber, rosin and lime. Everything went we'll until 3 o'clock this morning, when the collision occurred. Instantly as the water poured in. the extent of the dam-
 age was discovered and every effort made to beach the ship The passen-
 gers were aroused and they added to the noise and the excitement. When
 the steamship was safely beached their fears were allayed somewhat, but with the opportunity to leave the vessel on the tugboat Theodore Smith their fears raturned and they boarded the Smith in hurry They were landed in this city at a. m. At the Mallory off1ce
 it was said that both ship and cargo | were we'll insured.
 The Colorado is a sister ship to the
 Rio Grande She Is 2,764 tons, gross register; 306 feet long, 39la feet broad and 211s feet deep. She was built in | 1879 at Chester, Pa. She makes semi monthly trips between New York and
 Brunswick. Her sailing days are Fri days.
 The wrecking tug J. D. Jones passed | out at Quarantine shortly after o'clock this morning, bound to the as- sistance of the beached steamship.

speeding bicycle, the first horseless carriage. I would bid you mark the extension of popular education. the enlargement of suffrage, the growing dignity Of labor, the development of Jurisprudence, the achievements of statecraft I would speak of that tre- mendous conflict which for four years shook the continent, and unto which went forth the knightly hosts, volun- teers of the Union, crusaders of the nineteenth century in modern Pales- tine-beneath whose blouses beat the hearts of the holy warriors of old, above whose bayonets bloomed the lilies and the palms of God. And would point you to the flag, its blue field blossomlng to-day with forty five stars, where but fifteen twinkled a century ago, It's fair folds free for ever now from the blot of human bond age, and pray God never henceforth to be tarnished with the stain of any national dishonor."
 A perfect ovation was given the ora tor at its conclusion. Then came the hymn, Onward, Christian Soldier" whichwas sung by thousand Knights. The benediction was pronounced by the Rev, G. R. Warner, rector of St. Thomas church.
 At the conclusion of the exercises the line reformed on High street in the same order as first formation. At the South green the line was reviewed by Grand Commander Johnson and at the city hall by Sir Knight Miles B. Pres ton mayor of the city of Hartford The parade was then dismissed.

Miss Corson,s.M .Misfortunes.

New York, July 14.-Miss Juliet Cor son, the writer and lecturer on the sub- ject of cookery who has been seriously i'll for some time, is now in such a con- dition that it is not believed that she will ever again be sufficiently. strong to resume active work. Just at this time Miss Corson is in pecuniary diff culties. During her working career she is said to have made handsome in- come, but to kindness and generosity to others may be attributed her present lack of resources.
 Miss Corson was the first teacher of cookery to become known in this coun- try. She has lectured before the hospi- tals of the various American cities, a great deal of the time given without remuneration.
 An effort is being made among her friends to raise fund for her benefit.

 Waterbury, July 14,-Christ Strobel District Delegate William Kennedys alternate to the Chicago national con vention, returned home Monday. In conversation with Republican report CT Mr Strobel expressed himself as having had one of the most interesting trips in a long time. He said. You might read and read in the papers the accounts about that convention, but you could not imagine how to picture the scenes in your mind. could talk for hours about them, but the idea I would give would be only vague one.
 "The usual recommendation of the national committee for the chairman of the convention was thrown aside. The silver men came into the convention with the evident purpose of controlling 1t as was shown when Hill was turned down and Daniel chosen chairman. They said: Here you have nominated every candidate for the head of the ticket for the past twenty-four years, and we have had to take the tail end of it. now it is our turn and we propose to have it.
 "Is the nomination of Bryan satisfac- tory to you"
 "Well, no; not exactly. Of course he Is very smart man and he made one of the greatest speeches I have heard for some time.'

 So far as my knowledge extends, the Germans to man will repudiate the monstrous fallacy put forth by the recent convention that great nation can be enriched by debasing it's cur rency. 1t is too absurd doctrine to find favor in their eyes. I think the recent convention was not only un- democratic, but revolutionary and shall oppose it. I favor the placing of 0 gold democratic ticket in the field''
