CHICAGO, Feb. ID Rev. DIR. &. o.
Brown was yesterday dropped from
the membership of the Chicago Con-
gregational association. A special
meeting was called for the purpose of
taking action on his letter of resigna-
ton. DR.. Browns letter admitting
his guilt and asking TO be retired
was read. Then DR.. Brown, who
was accompanied by his wife, was
given an opportunity to be heard,
but was cut short when he requested
that he be allowed to withdraw his
letter of resignation. DIR. Brown
made strong personal appeal for re-
storation, saying, among other things,
that the association should forgive
him, as the Lord forgave Peter after
the apostle had denied him.

burned in Lynn canal, and 40 men who
were on board are supposed to have

for juneau on February ., and when
the Islander. which arrived from Co
