Effort to Raise 1t Made by the Bisih-
Op of Duluth.
NEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-In order to Sc
cure funds for mission work among
whites and Indians In Minnesota, Rev,
DIR. D. ]. Morrison. bishop Of Duluth,
and Rev. DR. T. H M Villiers Appleby,
archdeacen of the same diocese, made adj,
dresses in two Brooklyn churches tolay.
DR.. Appleby occupied the pulpit of the
Holy Trinity church in the afternoon, and
DR.. Morrison preached in Christ Church
in the evening. At both services offer
ings were taken up for the work heing
carried on by the Protestant Episcopal
denomination in Minnesota.
AT the service this afternoon DR.. Apple
by told his auditors of the missionary
work carried on by, the Duluth diocese,
which covers $1,000 square miles of terri
tory in the northern part of the state.
Within this territory live 5000 Indians
and there is also a white population OF
500 GOO persons. AS these people live in
the poorer part of the state, DR.. Appleby
said that there was great need for mis-
sionary work among them, especially in
the lumber regions The amount of
money needed is $1,000 each for the white
and Indian departments. and $1,000 for
the special fund. The hospital fund, when
made up, will carry subscriptions to tho
amount of $4,000, two-thirds of which
amount has already been promised.
Bishop Morrison's address in the Rev
DR.. Darlingtons church was on the
same order as that of Dr. Appleby in the
afternoon. Other addresses will be made
by them in the churches of the Long
Island diocese.

debt which has been hanging over it for
several years.
A unique plan for raising the money In
enc triumphant outburst of enthusiasm.
fellow feeling and devotion to the church
was originated by the pastor, Rev. J. >.
Montgomery. Harry Willard, the scenic
artist, had executed in oil a large picture
of the handsome structure. The painting
was set upon the platform. which was
Beautifully decorated with palms and
flags, and was completely covered with
squares Of cardboard representing
plaster. The plaster in turn was repre-
sentative Of the debt, and before the
eyes of the congregation vt was to be
torn away from the outer walls of their
church home. On the cards were printed
in large characters various amounts from
500 down to 81. The 500 blocks were
white; the $50 denomina ton, yellow; S25,
purple; $40, orange; $40, pink; So green; 81,
blue. They covered the picture and the
combination OF rainbow colors gave to
the whole very much of the appearance
of a crazy quilt. The most costly plaster
was to be removed first.
Mrs Cynthia A. Lillibridge, widow of
the late Henry F. Lillibridge, who was
not only one of the builders of the pres
ent edifice, but one of the pioneers of the
congregation when, further down town, 1t
worshiped in Centenary church, took
$1,000 off to start with. M. w. Savage
took another $1,000 and members of his
family took 5000 more.
At last the entire amount was taken.

There are few places within the limits
of standardization that boast of more in
teresting marriage customs than Bull
garia. Every young peasant wishes to
marry as early as possible, as he Is Of
little Importance in the community until
he has a wife But he Is not in danger
of forming an alliance In opposition to
his parents wishes, as his earnings be-
long to them until he Is welded, and his
wife must be bought and paid for ac-
cording to their station in life. The pa
rents usually give him the necessary
sum as soon as they can afford It,, SO that
the restriction is less calling than it
seems. 6; 9
A wife purchase" varies from 5000 to
$500, in proportion to the wealth Of the
contracting families, for the marriage is
strictly a family affair. In addition to
this sum a smaller amount Is given to
the brides mother for her personal use.
After the pecuniary arrangements have
been made by the proxies, the betrothal
takes place on either a Wednesday or
Thursday. 1t consists of the exchange
of written pledges regarding the sum to
be paid by the bridegroom, on the one
hand, and by the bride on the other.
Rings there are blessed by the priest
and exchanged by the couple, the fiancee
kisses the hands of the guests assembled
