GEORGE WASHINGTON.
A Noble Example, Which Should Be Con.
stantly Held Up Before Young and Old.

A Noble Example, Which Should Be Con-
stantly Held Up Before Young and Old.
In thinking of Washington and the
celebration of his birthday, we WOE
dered how many of our boys and girls,
how many of our young men and wom-
en-, indeed how many of our older men
and women appreciate the greatness
of our first president, or value as they
should his nobility of character.
We are forced to believe that We do not
celebrate his birthday with half the en-
thusiasm we ought to manifest, that we
do not talk OF him to our children as
much as we should: that we do not see
to it that they know his life well; that
we do not often discuss his leading
characteristics which to-day arc those
which win rhe highest success, and
elicit the trucst admiration.
Suppose for moment there was some
great crisis in our country, and that we
" ere involved in war, and that among
US there was a young man 43 years old,
who, by his wisdom, his large influence,
his moral greatness, his bravery and
lis "transcendent dignity of charac-
ter" should, by the general consent of
the leaders of the nation, be selected as
the one above all others to receive the
appointment CT general-in-chief of our
armies. and after the war, be elected
president of the republic. How fire.
.;uently would his name be spoken in
our homes, how every incident in his
public career would be noticed, and
everything connected with his history
and his home life be eagerly discussed.
What young man is there among us,
who. although he might be able to lead
an army. or might be possessed of the
precocious wisdom of an Alexander
Hamilton, or might have the moral
greatness of Washington, would com
eine all the virtues and the noble char
acteristics which he whom we celebrate
to-day possessed in such marked de-
gree?
When we ask ourselves these ques-
lions, and then direct our thoughts to
the young men we know personally. or
TO those who represent tn country in ITS
senate chambers, we confess it,would be

Hot Milk.

Hot milk is the newest panacea for
all complexion ills. If the face be
wrinkled, sallow, freckled or otherwise
afflicted, hot milk, say the enthusi-
asts over this new remedy, will pro-
duce a cure. Converts declare that
the face, after being washed with milk
at night, feels wonderfully refreshed,
while the skin soon becomes very
white and soft. Some even go SO far
as to pour generous quantity of milk
into the water for the bath, and claim
that it is positively magical in remov-
ing fatigue.-N. Y. Ledger.

But how did all these famous war

Rimetallic Talk.

WASHINGTON, April 10.-A move
ment is on foot backed by the admin
istration to have the PRE- sent congress
name a commission to inaugurate an 10
ternational conference toward prOmnt-
ing bimetallism. This move will
be made to follow out the promis :
of the republicans in their
platform. The object of the comm S
sion will be to secure the cooperation
of other na'ions in establishing an iu-
ternational bimetallc standard. TINS
is Senator Wolcott's 3 program, but on
the authority of Cne near the admin
stration the commission will oe formed
simply as d bluff with a view to quiet
ing the silver agitation.
The administration has planned to
have the paramount Issue OF the com
ing elections made on the Dingley bill,
thus forcing the democrats to attack
the republican platform on the tariff,
and not the financial issues.

NOTES FROM THE QUARTERLY.
Showing What is Being Done in Bishop
Hendricks Diocese.

St. Clements Chapter mo. AL, Ell
Paso.) of the Brotherhood of St. An
drew is trying to raise funds for the
erection of a reading room, ETC., on the
church lot. Its object is to reach the
young men who drift into the city from
all parts of the Union-some seeking
health, others adventure. The tempt
atiops here are very great, and some
such place of refuge is really neces-
sary.
Septua gesima Sunday was a day to
be remembered at ST. Paul's church,
Las Vegas, New Mexico. The Rev.
George Selby, who is in charge of this
church, was ordained to the priesthood.
Twelve were confirmed, the largest
number ever confirmed here at single
visitation. And it was class that
contained excellent material.
The conservation of Grace church,
Tucson, Arizona, on Quinquage
Sunday, was notable event. 1t crown
ed an effort that began fourteen years
ago with the purchase of a lot for the
building, and is one of the most beaut-
tiful churches in the two territories.
At my recent visit to ST. Johns mis-
sion, Bisbec. Arizona, l baptized
thirty-one infants and five adults,
thirty-six in all. This is my largest
mum Der of baptisms at single vista
tion.
The bishop visited Maria, Texas, for
the first time on Thursday, March %,
and was much pleased with his visit.
He has not yet had an opportunity of
visiting the congregation at Fort Davis
which can only be reached by stage
from Maria, but hopes to do so soon.
Maria is strong enough to have pame
and organization, but at Fort Davis
there are only two church families.
The congregation at the former place
is anxious to put up church, and,
with the assistance of a couple OF hun
dred dollars from the outside, would go
to work.
A Birthday" fund, for the erection
of a new church at ST. Clements, Ell
Paso, has been opened. Members of
the congregation are invited to make
an Offering, on birthday and other an
niversaries. The present building,
while the memories which cling to it
like fragrant odors endear it to the
hearts of all-especially to those who
knew it in its infant days-is made
quate and unworthy of the present con-
gregation.
At st. Johns church, Albuquerque,
N. NJ, on the fourth Sunday after
Epiphany, January 31st, chapter of
the Daug hters of the King was formed
and the members received at special
service.
The receipts for the Bishops Fund
since December 81, 1896, have been:

WASHINGTON, April 10.-Pressure
from the west for highest duties on
local products is already bearing fruit.
The subcommittee of the senate finance
comm ittee has considered on all sides
the subject of a duty on hides, and
while the matter is not definitely set
tied, the conclusion has been reached
that warrants the statement that hides
will be removed from the free list.
This concession means the surrender
of eastern influences to the eXigences of
the situation.
Marshall Fields, of Chicago, with a
big delegation, is here fighting the
tariff bill. "Ii's the worst tariff bill
ever drafted. Not only as regards the
rate of duty imposed, but its compli-
