ARTICLES OF RELIGION

ARTICLES Ot' hELlGlON.
A matter about which a great deal OF
interest centered was the report OF the
commission on the correction Of the ar
ticles of religion-the creed OF the Church.
The commission reported that they
had discovered a few unimportant
errors which their report corrected, and
it was adopted, but not without warm
discussion.
The Virginia Conference has sent up a
lot Of memorials, asking important
changes in the economy Of the Church.
This is a partial list.
Memorial to authorize unordained
preachers when in charge to administer
the sacrament and perform the rite or
matrimony. Memorial in respect to COM
putting the limit Of the pastoral term.
Memorial to make certain changes In the
burial service.
siding eldership TO eight years success
lively.

Memorial on the formation OF pre-
siding elders districts.
Memorial to make certain changes In
the Discipline In respect to local preach

The Virginians are ahead as 10 the
number Of memorials.

Bishop Coleman.


The following account OF Il noted
divine is taken from this months num-
Der of St. Johns Rec0rd:
1propoS of the visit of Bishop Coleman,
Nov, 10, unless unavoidably kept away, the
following is taken from the Baltimore Hcrad
under the captain of "Delaware's Pedestrian
Bisliop:''
In all Delaware there is no man who has
wider or more varied knowledge of human
nature than Right Rev. Leighton Coleman,
Bishop of the Episcopal diocese of the little
State. He has dined with the Queen of Great
Britain, sat in council as one of the vice.
presidents of the Lambeth Conference trav-
eled on foot through the Continent, and
tramped unknown through the wild and
rugged State of West Virginia.
AS pedestrian Bishop Coleman has no
equal among churchmen. This is his favor
lite pastime. Every year he takes a two weeks
vacation and the entire time is spent travelling
on foot through wild and unfrequented sec
tons. Rugged West Virginia affords special
attractions for the venerable divine His eX-
perlence as an itinerary would fill volume
Wearing coarse clothes and heavy shoes, and
with an old SLOUGH hat drawn well down over
his face Bishop Coleman, stick in hand, de-
rlveS his pleasure OF the different varieties of
scenery by personal observation and learns
human nature from experience.
Last week Bishop Coleman returned from
his annual trip. His pilgrimage began at
Martinsburg w. Va, and despite his 81 years
the prelate covered 30 miles in his tramp
The bishop travels inCOgultO, and his silvered
beard and hair and venerable appearance ex-
cite many remarks Of sympathy from the UNI
suspectng country folks. Transfers would
invite him to get into their wagons, believing
they were doing deed of charity in giving
the old tramp a life in his travels School
children standing at the cross roads were
moved to compassion at the sight Of one so
old without home.
As a general thing Bishop Coleman had no
difficulty in finding a restng,place at night.
In these Out-ofthe- country houses the
owners hesiated to turn an old man from the
door. Force of circumstances and the Blsh-
ops Ignorance ofthe country sometimes found
him at dusk far from any sign of a human
habitatiOn. On one of these occasions Bishop
Coleman made a bed for himself by the side
of Il haystack, and on another he slept on the
floor of a schOol-house. One of the windows
having been left open, he climbed in, spent
the night and was away again before the
pupils thought of assembling.
Bishop Coleman enjoys his rambles i'm
menSely. The plain country fare and fresh
air put new vlgOr into his system. His genial
and whOle-SOued disposition causes him to
be interested in everything and everybody
Many hours are spent III discussing agrcul-
ture with the farmers, who eventually come
to the conclusion that the stranger is real
estate agent, and so naturally the Bishop gets
the bright side of the farmers life.

improvements,

The year will close with several de
cided improvements on Main street.
made during the summer aud fall.
The most conspicuous is that by George
II. Wittig, purchaser of the Beall block
including almost tie entire lower story
The space reserved for the firm of G..
H. Wittig & Sons extends from Main
to Mechanic street. $50 feet, and com
prises salesroom, office, bakery. supply
snop and toy ware-room. The first
floor contains about 3,240 square feet
Then there is 800 feet of cellar space
in all about 5000 feet.
The oven, built of homemade (Sav-
age Mountain works. friedrich, is a
commodlous affair of latest make-a
model of convenient and easy opera
ton. But little time, with a small
quantity of wood, is required to get it
ready for work, and then it is big
enough to turn out small wagon
load of bread, cakes, pies, etc
The salesroom, freshly painted, is
celled with beautiful pattern of en-
bossed steel, put on by B. 7. Schofield
q Sons, while the walls form a bright
background for goods and fixtures.
The exterior front improvement is
probably the most striking of the
changes made by Mr.. Wittig. The
oldstyle affair has been replaced by
new plate-glass array of about - feet,
covering the stores of G.. H. Wittig 4
Sons, bakers and confectioners, G.. Fl.
Hooking 4 Son, shoes, and the G f.
Pearce Drug company. Ten arches,
overtopped by cornice, bracket and
dentil work, painted red and light
green, indicate how many windows
and doors had to be provided for. The
windows are IL! feet high, but Of vary
ing widths-all equipped with fine
glass and shelving for street display.
&. H Hooking & Son. like the
Messrs. Wittig, have lately moved in
and have an area of II by 60 feet.
The Pearce Drug company, old
tenants, remain undisturbed with their
store-room, ware-room, cellar, etc
This is a company, however, always
on the lookout for chances to improve,
The Wittig establishment is manned
by the firm--George H., the father;
George J. and William W., sons, aided
by Walter W., baker, and Arthur,
salesman also sons. Altogether these
make a strong, Industrious, harmon
ious, effective team.

rooms in the building by lowering the

Football.

The foot ball game at Homecoming
Tuesday was won by the Homecoming
team. There was a lot of kicking on
account of foul tackling. Dobbie, "a
Homecoming player, ran at least three
yards outside the lines once, made a
touchdown and the umpire let it count.
But of course he resided in Lonacon-
ing, doncherknow.
The Frostburg boys did as well as
could be expected against experienced
foot ball players. Bernard Trussel
and William Evans played fine game.
The score was II to 0. Sloan kicked
two goals. but failed on the third.
Joe Brady met his match in the shape
of Horace Evans, who walked all over
the Brady section of Homecoming.

Investigation developed the loss of his

yards away, both overturned, and the
horse hitched IN the woods. This was
