REVIEWS THE CAUSE OF TROUBLE.
Doctor Briggs Views Not New, and Deny
No Fundamental Dactrine.

The bishop then proceeds: II beg, how
ever, that you viii not suppose that I
am seeking to escape from my personal
responsibility in the matter of the or
dination Of DR.. Briggs by retiring be-
hind the action of my constitutional ad-
visers. 1 have not the slightest desire
to do So The outcry against the au-
thor of The Introduction to the Study
of Holy Scripture is chiefly to be de-
plored because it betrays such a la
mentable ignorance of the progress of
sound learning and the judgment of the
best Christian scholars.
''One OF these. bishop. writes: You
may be interested to see that the old
staid Christian knowledge society re-
published my little phampIet on the BIZ
BILE which contains the same principles
that are elaborated in your treatise.
am indignant at the Misrepresentation,
or we will hope, the misunderstanding,
of some of your critics. Have they for
the first time come across the interpre-
tations of the speaking with tongues
which harmonize that book with the
epistle to the Corinthians? Have they
never read Dean PIumptre's article on
the subject in Smiths directory of the
Bible?
In a word the author of The Intro
duction to the Study of Holy Scripture
kas simply stated conclusions which the
best learning and the most devout minds
have accepted before him. / do not my
self accept all of them. but that ar.
of them denies or fmpugns any founda-
mental doctrire of the faith can only
be shown by mutilations or peryersions
OF what the author has said which are
as malignant as they are unscrupulors.
1 note the prediction with which you
coaclude-that DR. Briggs advancement
to the higher ministry for which he has
been recommended will precipitate de-
partures to the church Of Rome

rms lnueeu wouId De unfortunate.
for the author of The Introduction to
the Study of the Holy Scripture holds
letters from eminent Roman Catholic
scholars of foremost rank. in institutions
of learning of foremost dignity. ex-
pressing warmest appreciation of his
contribution to the study of the Bible,
and intimating their purpose to make
use of it in their class rooms. Here
again it would seem that a somewhat
larger knowledge would be the safest
guide to wise action
The impressive moment in the ordina-
t:o, service arrived when the candi-
dates stood together with their sponsors
before the bishop. Aftersthe pcstulants
had been presented to the bishop. and
after those presenting them had given
the usual assurance that they had been
examined ard found worthy, the bishop
rose from his chair and proclaimed a
general invitation to any persons know
ing amy impediment or notable crime"
in the candidates to come forward and
declare. Then followed a profound
silence. People turned about as if eX-
pecting some one to rise up and make a
protest. No one arose. There was no
protest handed to the bishop and the
crucial moment was over. Then the
regular formula of ordiuation was gone
through with more deliberation.

Chicago. May 15.-Found guilty of
mansIaughter and sentenced to years
in the penitentiary. Mrs.
Marjorie Crosby sat in Judge Water
mans court Saturday and smiled be-
cause her 14-year-old fOster-son-the
slayer of Deputy Sheriff Nye-had been
declared innocent of the crime. Stolid-
ly Indifferent as to her own fate, the
aged widow listened without emotion to
the minute clerks reading of the ver-
diet which held her responsible for the
murder of the deputy. The boys eyes
filled with tears, it is said, and he told
his mother he would rather go to prison
than. let her go.
This is the case where boy of IA
deliberately shot to death an officer in
the discharge of his duty as ordered by
the court. The jury was divided on the
question as to whether anybody was
guilty of murder in killing 4 deputy
sheriG and finally concluded that Mrs
Crosby was to the extent of year in
