O'Donnell, of Memphis. on a foul, in the

hugging, and this was kept up through
out the contest. In the first round O'Don-
nell struck Gardner In the face with
hfs head, in clinch. and cut the Kids
eye. The Kid protested. At the end of
this round he sent stiff right on the

CLAIMS NATIONAL ALLEGIANCE
BISHOP BROWN EXPOUNDS THE,
TO AMERICAN ADHERENCE
Arkansas PreIate Declares That
Sway of Ancient Roman Bishops
Was Limited Pleads History
and CanOnicaI Authority

The Rt. Rev. William Montgomery
Brown, bishop coadjutor of Arkansas. de-
livered lecture at Christ church last
night on "Seabury and the American Pc
riod, or the Claims of the Episcopal
Church to the Allegiance of Americans"
The lecture was divided into three parts:
Among other things the bishop said:
If the present Roman theory and the in
depreciation given to the texts by which it
is supported be correct we ought to find
that, during the first 800 or 400 years. all
churches Were subject to the bishop of
Rome, and that there was no such thing
TO be found in all the world as an inde-
pendent provincial national church.
On the other hand, if the Anglican theory
be tenable, it will apear that during this
period the churches of the several political
divisions throughout the vast Roman en-
pire governed themselves without. practi-
ly any reference to the bishops of
the capital city, or to any other external
authority, except the DEGREES of the gen.
eral councils.
The limits of the original papal see
were those Of the city of Rome Even
after the development of the patriarchal
system the region which the bishop of
Rome ruled was by no means co-eXten-
sive with Italy. ITALY says an ecclesias-
teal geographer, from very early times
was divided into two great. provinces
first. the Italic diocese, and, second, that
of Rome Now. in the early times, the
prlmacy of the bishop of Rome was con-
fined the limits of the suburban
churches and his jurisdiction to the city.
He had nothing whatever to do with the
great Italian churches of Ravenna, Auui-
LEILA or Milan. Ravenna was only about 1870
miles northeast of Rome; Aquileia was 300
miles in that direction, and Milan about
the same distance to the northwest Since
the jurisdition of the Pope was confined
originally to Rome. and his primacy was
so far from being co-eXtensiye with Italy
Itself. We might regard 1t safe to conclude
that he mad nothing to say avout the gov
ernment of the church in the remoter
parts of Christendom. But.we are not
left to conjecture on this point. There is
abundant evidence, known to all readers
of ecclesiastical history that the churches
of Palestine. Asia Minor, Africa, France
Spain and England were all, for the first
six centuries, and some of them during
the first 1000 years, quite Independent of
Rome any other foreign domination
In fact such of these churches as COM
pose the great Greek communion have
never submitted in the least degree to
papal dominion.
when Episcopalians press the claims
of their church upon the attention of non
Ep;scopalians it is often asked, Why not
join the Roman church and have done
with it-why stop midway between sec
tarianism and Romanism? We answer.
Because there is absolutely nothing in the
way of cathoicity to be gained. while in
other respects much would be lost by So
doing"
There were present several of the ST.
Paul clergy-Rev. William c. Pope, Rev
Charles Holiness DR.. Wright Dr. John
son and Rev. Harvey Officer.

faced the traps for the main event. all
of whom stood on the lines allotted to
them by the handicappers for the Grand

across two of three sets of traps on
which the shoot took place, but it was
not strong enough to influence the flight
of the birds.
Owing to the large number of shooters.
those who missed two birds dropped out
of the ranks, so that the contest could
be finished before darkness set in.

fifteen kills each, and under the rules

In this trade
THE statements made by the shippers

of correcting the evil.
This Is matter of railroad manage

matter to railroad managers, but it Is a
