 The first dgy was spent in dis cussihg important subjects of interest to singers. Sunday was the 'sweii' day, and several hun dred people were on the grounds. Everybody seemed interested in the subjects discussed.
 "W Whlch has the more Christen- izing effect, singing or orpreaching?" This subject eicited quite a spirit ed discussion. W. R. Phillips and R. F, Case took the affirmative and Joe A. Young the negative.
 Dr. D. F. Ray made asplendid address on the necessity of vocal music. Dinner was then announc. ed and tor one short hour we were permitted to partake of the heavy laden bas kets of the good people Of New Home.
 The first thing afternoon was the selection of the time and place of the next convention, which It was decided would be held at Center Polnt on the 4th Sunday in September, 1898. w. k. Phillips was elected treasurer of the Union. J. w. Smith tendered his resignation as chairman and R. F. Case was electeu in his stead.
 Then came the crowning event of the occasion. The Green Forest choir, the Center Point choir, the New Home choir and the Parker cholr entered into a eompetive contest for beautiful banner as a reward of merit. George Oneal, J. w. Kirk kham and A. A. Davis were the judges. Each class sang five songs. The judges awarded the banner to the Green Forest choir.

lows: Every person who within the

CORRIGAN REQUESTS
ABSTINENCE FROM LIQUOR
DURING THE FAST.
The members Of the Catholic and
Protestant Episcopal churches are al
ready preparing for the observance Of
Lent, or the forty days fast, which be-
gins on March 8, that being Ash We'd
nesday. There will be little change
in the observance of the fast this year
as far as the members of the Episcopal
Church are concerned. but the regula-
tions just issued by Archbishop Corri-
gan, which. however apply only to his
arch diocese, makes a notable change In
the Catholic observance.
The difference between the usual
form of the regulations and that Of the
present year is the recognition of the
temperance feature in the proper and
seemly observance OF the penitential
period by the insertion OF the following
clause at the end Of the circular of di-
rection: "A most useful and commend.
able custom is that Of abstaining dur
ing Lent from stimulants, in honor OF
the sacred thirst Of our Divine Sa.
viour."
This suggestion as to abstinence ron
the use of intoxicating liquors has not
hitherto formed a part Of the lenter
regulations.

THE FIGHT HAS BEGUN.
REPUBLICANS DETERMINED TO HEAD
OFF MR.. WOLcOTT.
BRINGING IN HIS ALLEGED ATTI-
TUDE IN THE ELECTION OF coll
ONEL DUPONT TO THE SENATE.
HIGGINS FOR SPRUANCE.

1t was to-day asserted that the nomi-
nation Of ex-Chancellor James l.. VOL
cctt to be judge of the United States
Courts in the district of Delaware was
made by the president because Senator
Gray received some assurances that he
would be confirmed before ne sent his
name to President Cleveland.
The break last week when the dis
trict judge for Nebraska was confirmed
is regarded as significant that Mr.. Gray
has reasons TO believe that Mr.. WolcOtt
can secure confirmation.
The Republicans are doing every
thing in their power to prevent the ex-
chancellor's confirmation Yesterday
ex-senator Higgins went to Washing
ton, it is believed, to work against con-
firmation by the Senate. The friends
of Mr.. Higgins are urging him to allow
his name to be used, but the ex-senator
has declined, and says that his choice
for the position is Hon William c.
Spruance. While the Democrats believe
that Mr.. Wolcott Will be confirmed. the
Republicans are confident that they can
prevent it.
WASHINGTON Feb. 23.-The nomi-
natlCn OF James L. WOlcOtt to be dis
trict judge ofDelaware was not brought
up. 1t is understood that the Republi-
cans are holding it back for the prepar-
alton Of charges. In the DUPONT case
involving the seat from Delaware in
the Senate, Speaker Watson, while act
ing as governor. cast the deciding vote
for the Democratic candidate, the tes-
timony taken by the Senate committee
showing that Mr. Watson said he did so
because he was forced to. The Republi-
cans now claim that it was Mr. VOL
colt. who was then chancellor of the
state, who forced Nj. Watson to cast
the vote which had so much to do with
the result of that contest. The matter
will be looked into before Mr. Wolcott's
name is reported.
SENATOR GRAY'S PROSPECTS.
The act Of a man throwing aside an
offer of $4,000 a year for life for a most
honorable position which he could
creditably FIJI. as Senator Gray has un,
| 1uestionably done. is so remarkabl,
that il was the subject OF much com.
ment to-day
In speaking of Senator Gray's pros
poets. which have evidently caused hin
to give up this judicial chance, a frient
said to-day that the senator wa,
wanted as a legal adviser under tn

road and that after his term as senator
