HOUSE OF DEPUTIES.
Working ON Canons md Constitu-
tiornI Laws.

The House of Deputies set itself reii-
giously at work yesterday on canons and
constitutional laws in order to dispose of
them. Particularly was this noticeable
after the resolution was passed in which
next Tuesday was the day set aside for
the closing of the convention.
Eloauence was at a premium. and the
shorter the remarks the deeper was the
look of content upon the faces of the
deputies. Merry jests and laughter found
friendly allies, and the general serious
ness of the work impressed itself only
when due pressure was brought to bear
upon the lax ones.
The work of the convention has been
successful as regards the great good 1t
has accomplished with the inner work
ings of the church. The revision of can
ons and the constitution has been an
odious task, but to the men engaged upon
IL the work has been labor of love, and
when o'clock comes next Tuesday even
ing they will lay down their pencils hap
py in the thought that their duty has
been well done.
The convention is in many respects one
of the greatest in the history of the Prot
estant Episcopal Church. The men COM

intercourse amid surroundings of the
most happy nature, and the outbursts of
laughter which greeted the ear attested
the fact.

Delegates to the convocation say that
1t has been one of the most successful
in the history OF the order. The attend

After recess the special order was con-

constitution and canons presented his re-
port. He said he had no idea that all of
1t would be adopted or even considered.
Therefore he asked that the canons of
ordination be considered first as the eX-
isting canon is ambiguous. He offered
the commissions resolution as follows:

sidered be referred back to the Joint

sion had done more than prepare a re-
vision; it had substantially prepared a
new code. He suggested that canons
not acted upon at the close of the con-
vention be referred to the house COM
mittee on canons.
DR.. Mckim sustained the suggestion
and offered a resolution to that effect.
In the discussion that ensued, a c,eri-
cal delegate from Massachusetts, said
that to pass DR.. McKim's resolution was
to belittle the joint commission. DR.,

the fighting qualities of those Of differ.
ent nations he said:
"The Spanish have quick heat and
activity, the French have the dash, the
Germans are steady and methodical, but
Anglo-Saxons and their descendants, the
Americans, possess a combination of all
these soldierly elements. They are as
tenacious as bulldogs and can endure
more suffering and complain less than
any other people. | am an 1rishman
