Scientific Men at London.
LONDON, Sept 23.-The church fight
drags along. The bishops Issuing of an
order to the episcopate regarding the
archbishop's decision Is meeting with
compliance, except in few cases The
rebellious clergy will probably be request
ed to resign and may be evicted. But
apparently the majority Of the high.
churchmen have made up their minds to
swallow the pill rather than precip!tate
disestablishment.
The meeting of the British Association
for Advancement of Science was not
marked by any startling discoveries,
though interesting light was thrown on
matters In controversy.
The football season has started and Is
attended with increased enthusiasm. the

Cyclists here are much worked UP over
the rllmor Of the manufacturers com Dire,
which is expected to produce high-grade

says:
THE combination will be welcomed by
those having at heart the best wishes
Of British commerce, for 1t Is an I'M
doubted fact that the cheaper cycles of
the Americans and Germans are fast
driving the British bicycle makers out of
all the foreign markets"
The controversy as to the comparative
merits of British and American railroads
continues. w. M. Ackworth a railroad
expert, writing at length to the Times,
draws attention to the many American
features yet unapprectated In England.

and speed, and especially the splendid
service between New York and Philadel-

London and Brighton service.
The discovery under the nave OF an Old
church at Penn, Buckinghamshtre, II a
coffin bearing the name of William
Penn" caused the circulation Of report
that it contained the body Of the founder
Of Pennsylvania, buried there, according
to several English papers, in 1888, or
eighty years previous to his decease. It
is probably one of PENIS ancestors.
Similar instances are not uncommon in
the English papers. Only recently the
Westminster Gazette referred glow1ngly
to the Estate Of Philadelphia" The close
Anglo-American relations have appar-
emily failed to produce on this side cor
responding interest in American history
and geography.

the mother-heart of the woman was sat-

Mrs. Bresee met Mrs. Macdonald at
Seattle and brought the baby home,
