prominent in the world of finance and
politics. Among those who are expect
ed to attend are ex-senator George T.
Edmunds of Vermont, now of Phila-
delphia; j. Pierpont Morgan of New
York, Henry E. Pierrepont of Brook
Ign; John L. Triplet of Missouri, and
David B. Lyman of lagrange, Ill.
The house of bishops will be presid-
ed over by the Right Rev. John Will
liams, bishop of Connecticut, who is
the senior bishop in date of consecra-
ton. All the bishops will attend the
convention. The sessions of the house
of bishops will be he'd behind closed
doors, but those of the house of depu-
ties will be open to the general public.
Two subjects to be considered at
this meeting are of more than oqy1in-
airy Importance and will probably
cause much discussion and arouse
feelings as intense as any engendered
in political meeting. Church conven-
tons are examples of undise pinned
human nature in combat, though the
delegates soften the language of con-
tempt and violent opposition for the
sake of appearances. But it is only
velvet covering of an Adam as willful
and determined as the spirit that
stalks in all political conventions.
Canon thirteen forbids a clergyman
to so!emnize the marriage of a di-
vorced person unless it be the mno-
cent one who obtained the divorce IN
account of adultery proven against the
other one. 1t is proposed to substi-
tute the following: mo minister of
this church shall solemnize the mar
riage of either party to divorce dur
ing the life of the other party.

from the joint commission regarding
marriages will be made:

necessary to flood it and wash it, and
we have no water except for drinking
and bathing the bodies we are COM
manded to keep like temples. If as
phalt will decay rapidly without water
and we have not water, brick is the
only attainable pavement for MS. I'm
less it can be shown that asphalt does
not need to be washed to preserve 1t
from quick decay it would be foolish
to Law it in Lincoln where water IS
measured out to lawns by sluggish
drops and where meters have been or
dered to prevent the waste of water
which should be as impossible to
waste as air. Mr.. Humphreys COM
posite letter has had so much effect. III
asphalt must only be used where there
is water in plenty, then asphalt is not
for Lincoln, which suffers more for
lack of water than for honest men or
commercial development or from the
schemes of those who want to go to
congress.
The general convention of the Epis-
copal church, which sits every three
years, will convene in Washington on
OCTOBER S, and remain in session about
three weeks. The revision of the con-
stitution and the canons of the
church. which was begun some years
ago, will occupy the the attention OF
the convention. and it is hoped that
the revision will be accomplished II
this meeting. The attendance prom
Uses to be very large. The convention
is made up of two houses; the house
of bishops, and the house of deputies,
which is composed of four clerical and
four lay delegates from each diocese.
The Woman's auxiliary holds its meet
ings at the same time as the conven-
ton, and there will be 1900 in attend
ance. The list of clerical delegates to
the convention contains the names of
nearly all the leading ministers Of the
Episcopal church, while that of the
