OF A
CORNER Stone.
Impressive Service at Bishop
Clark Hall, Darlington.
BISHOP NOT ABLE TO ATTEND.
His Address Prepared For the Occasion Read
by Bishop Coadlutor.
HIS PREFERENCE As TO THE NAME
Was That K... Hall Should Be Named After Mr..
Chaplin, 10 Whose Efforts the Existence OF
ST. Andrews industrial School Is Due.

The corner stone of the Bishop Clark
hall was laid yesterday afternoon at
Harrington. Owing to increased feeble
ness recently, the bishop could not at
tend, and his address was read by
Bishop Coadjutor McVickar. There was
a large attendance of prominent and
wealthy people connected with the
Episcopal dioceses.
The hall which is connected with the
st. Andrews industrial school Will be
a monument in that part of the state
to the venerable bishop of this diocese
The bishops address attracted mark
ed attention. Among other things IL
contained the following 1T was my
preference that the building should
bear the name OF William M. Chaplin
to whom we are indebted for the ex-
istence of st. Andrews industrial home.
This new hall will be opened at the
very beginning OF new century, ana
would like to think OF the graduates
assembling here in the year 1900 TO Gel
ebrate the semi-centenniai or TINS oc-
casion. The great charities OF the age
run i'm different directions. our hospi-
for their object the care or alieViatioh
Of existing evils, and as long as society
remains as il is IL would he terrible
calamity IL the good work should De
abandoned. 1t would be a very poor
gospel that provided no remedy Tor
those who have gone astray, or whose
earthly prospects have been blighted.
I do not say that the graduates from
bere will all become saints or eminent
citizens but the probabilities VIII De
largely in their favor.
The building committee reported
through Mr.. william Gammell.
IL is their purpose to erect the puilu-
inc contaminated according to the plans
drawn up as soon as FUNDS enough 10
paw for the entire work may be secured.
