A PROTESTANT BROTHERHOOD.
(From lions Iaerald.)


Tt has been a standing reproach against
Professionalism that it could not command
the discipline, the obedience and the self
denial which are placed at the service of
the sacerdotal churches by the religious
orders. Two men have arisen in our day
to wipe away this reproach - William
Booth, the general of the Salvation Army,
and Thomas Champness the founder of
the Joyful News Mission and if the
name of the latter is at present less wide
~ known, his work is equally original.
and the influence of it on eVangelistfc
methods is likely to be increasingly wide
ana important. Mr. Champness' workers
carry out in practice the three "evangel-
zeal counsels' of poverty. chastity and
obedience. They are absolutely under the
direction of the head Of the mission. they
receive from him Just the supply suffi-
Gent for their wants as they require it,
and if they marry they leave the mission
On the other hand, they do not surrender
their personal freedom, they are bound
by no vows, and the obligation to this
self-denying lite ceases with the termina-
ton of their connection with the work

Nearly 250 Chinese were drowned like

doubt that she had been strangled. There
Is no clue to the murderer, but the police
believe that the deed was committed by
the same stranger who murdered three

1874. Shortly after these murders Mrs
Voght informed the police officials that
spirits had given her, while she was IN a
trance, description of the stranger, but
he has never been discovered. 1t is thought
that the murderer of Mrs. Voght either be-
lieved that she did know something or he
was also a believer in "spirits' and decided
to put her out Of the way and possibly
save himself from exposure. Mrs. Voght

publican ana Populist state committees
met here to-day to fill two vacancies ON
their joint ticket. caused by the declina-

man Hartman produced letter from Chas.
A. Towne, chairman of the national COM
mittee, deposing Senator Lee Mantle from
the craftsmanship of the state committee

ter Of entertaining motions looking to a
union of the two wings of the Republican
party-the regulars and the silver men.

licans of Cascade county fused today. At
the state committee meeting Hartman
asked Mantle if he approved of this. Man
tie said he did, but claimed 1t was loca
affair for the Cascade people to settle.

sional vacancy on the state ticket was filled

THE CRETAN QUESTION
TO Be Solved by Withdrawal Of the
Turk

SAN FRANCISCO Oct. THE different
business promoting associations of this
state have asked for reconsideration of
the matter of the selection of wines to be
used at the Chicago peace Jubilee banquet,
and have forwarded the following telegram
to the chairman of the committee.
San Francisco. Oct. 7.-Chairman Peace
Jubilee Committee. Chicago: In behalf of
the wine industry of California, we earn
estly request reconsideration of the de-
cision of the banquet committee of the
Jubilee to exclude American wines on that
occasion. California wines obtained med
ais and premiums for their excellent quail
tiles at Genoa, Italy, and in Dublin in
1892; Bordeaux in 1895, and only recently at
the Italian exhibit at Turin, Italy, where
they obtained diploma of honor.
Chicago's peace jubilee Is the celebra-
ton by Americans of the glorious VIC
tories of American arms on land and sea
and we believe 1t to be the patriotic desire
Of all Americans that it should be marked
by the use of American products.
