UNDISTURBED.

The ministers OF Moscow are not
very much disturbed by the attacks
that have been male upon them by
the ribald press of Moscow and else
where. What is the height of their

gested that as far ms practicable,
funerals be not held on the Sabbath:
that the minister expected to oliiciate

ket be closed before leaving the house
and il the service be held in church
1t be not opened again.
1t appears to us that there is moth
ing Objectionable or unreasonable
about these suggestions. The min
listers OF our churches have their
hands full OF work on the Sabbath
Most of them attend Sabbath school,
preach twice or more and attend

Take for example, the tasks performed
by Rev. Ghormley last Sabbath.
Attended Sabbath school at 0 o'clock,
teaching Bible class, held regular
services at II, preached at the poor
farm at 3, attended young people
meeting at 6, preached and held reg
ular services at 1880 One will see
at once from this schedule OF duties
that there is little opportunity to
sandwich in funeral ON day like
that. or course if the necessity fol
it arises any of them will make thu

money or price.
The request for notice is slmpl,
because they require time for prepar

At the Congregational Church.

The Christmas exercises at the
Congregational church were held Sat
urday evening. The church WAS
packed With children and their friends.
At one end of the platform was the
large tree, fanked by smaller one.
Both were prettily decorated and
heavily hung with good things for
the little folks. After the exercises
bad passed off pleasantly, the lights
were turned down and the tapers
lighted on the trees. Then in came
two hunters who had not seen Santa
Claus any where in the mountains
and who presently started off to find
him. Soon his bells were heard and
in he came. The children were great
ly disappointed when lie showed them
his empty pack. But the four little
fairies who had been hiding behind
the tree helped Santa Claus and the
children out of the trouble by bring
ing out baskets of dolls and horns
and lots of nice things Then the
distribution went merrily on and ev-
cry one went home happy.

cratic committee which Is to fix the date of
the state convention of that party will meet
In this city tomorrow. 1t Is understood that

ney general and Railroad commissioner La
Rue may be renominated. Governor Budd
lis expected to be chairman of the conven-

nent for railroad commissioner and ]. H.
Grady for member of the state board of

THE Populist congressman, Castle and

county attorney, Is said to have the best
chance for nomination in the Fifth. against
Eugene Loud and James H. Barry in the
Fourth.
In the event of eSnator Sewell declining

AN ENGLISH OPINION
Sir George Clarke, the Naval Expert,
Praises Salisbury's Policy

LONDON, July 26.-Sir George Syden-
ham Clarke, the expert on naval tactics
and coast defenses. writes to the Daily
Graphic today, strongly approving Amer!-
can annexation of Hawaii and Porto Rico
He says
at is for the best interests of the world
that a canal connecting the Atlantic and
Pacific should be controlled by the United
States, and whatever attitude the European
powers may take, foreign interference In
Central America is out of the question, be-
cause the interests Of the United States and
Great Britain in the future will be perma-
rent.
There Lord Salisbury's policy toward
the United States is statesmanlike."
The letter was evoked by an article in the
Daily Graphic calling attention to the re-
versal Of Englands traditional policy to
prevent the United States from acquiring
strategical positions in the Atlantic and
Pacific, enabling it to control the possible
canal.
The Daily Graphic in an editorial this
morning says it agrees with Sir Georgt
Sydenham Clarke, but is curious to know
what induced Lord Salisbury to adopt his
present attitude.
