ing and the like be merely advisory instead
of mandatory, yet retaining the right to
expel in extreme cases They wish to
save this part from utter destruction. The
committee will meet no more except on
the call OF the president.
ID. ID. Thompson. the assistant editor of
the Northern Christian Advocate. law
man, made the most sensible speech before
the committee. His argument was that the
mission of the church is TO teach and en-
force total abstenance, and not to enter
the political field for law that never can
be enforced while a majority of voters
love and will have drams
The ballotings have developed great polit-
zeal tact Every ballot has TO have two
names on 1t. The candidates that have their
forces we'll in hand instruct their men to
vote a straight ticket for their first and
only choice. and add anybody's name that
is not a candidate, so that no rival may
receive boost. This accounts for the fact
that. every balloting has shown thirty or
forty that receive only a few votes
The tentative measures proposed in re-
gard to tobacco will remind old Methodists
of the gingerly manner with which whisky
selling and drinking were handled fifty TO
sixty years ago. First. preachers were not
allowed to make or sell liquor, then fol-
lowed a rule that Methodist laymen must
keep orderly saloons or go out of the bust
ness entirely go out of the church. until
at last dram-drinking and selling by Meth
odists were forbidden absolutely. Who
shall say that fifty years hence the board
of bishops will not say: "The sale of to-
bacco cannot be licensed without sin," and
the temperance committee will not insist
that anybody that tolerates it's use in the
army is unfit for President? The fact is
that the habitual use of intoxicants by
preachers and people was more comman
sixty years ago than the sale and use of to-
bacco are now. But will there be political
party then whose only slogan will be hos
tility TO the manufacture and sale of to-
bacco? Il. A. G..

NORTHERN PRESBYTERIANS.
Reports of Special Committees Con-
sidered Yesterday.

ST LOUIS. May 19.-Despite constant
heavy rain and the street-car strike the
attendance at the session of the Presby-
terrain General Assembly to-day was as
large as on preceding days. Much interest
was shown in the reports of the special
committees, only two of which were under
leading features Of these reports were
made by distinguished ministers Mr.. John
H Converse vice moderator, presided over
the elaboration of the first and only ses-
sion. which adjourned shortly after noon
until Monday.
The most important reports presented to-
day We're those for the relief of disabled
ministers and the widows and orphans of
deceased ministers, and on the method of
appointment of standing committees of the
assembly. otherwise known as the Peoria
overture" Elder LEWIS II. Severance, of
Cleveland, o.. presented the report OF min
isterial relief. He showed that the contri-
buttons of the church had never kept pace
with the advance of the church or with
the advance of the roll of annuitants. He
declared that the churches should very
largely increase their usual contributions
to the board. Twenty-Five thousand dol
lars more was called for in contributions
this year than was paid last year to make
the appropriations that will be required
by the various presbyteries.
Rev. Benjamin L. Agnew, d. D., secre-
tary Of the board of ministerial relief,
made an eloquent plea on behalf of the
ministerial relief fund He gave long
array of statistics showing that the board
had on its roll to-day one minister's fam
lily to every eight ministers the roll of
the General Assembly. In 1860 the board
had only one minister's family on the roll
to every eighty-seven ministers in the as
sembly.
Rev Willis Radcliffe. D. D.. of Wash
ington, d. c., was the first champion of the
Peoria overture, which provides that the
moderator shall upon the organization of
the assembly appoint committee Of min
listers and elders to aid him in the appoint
ment of a standing committee, said COM
mittee to be composed of twenty-one COM
missioners from different parts of the coun-
try. not more than two to be from any one
synod.
Before DIR. Radcliffe concluded his adj
dress amid considerable excitement a call
was made for adjournment of the assembly
until Monday morning, and the time for
further consideration of the method of ap-
pointment of standing committees of the
assembly was fixed for next Thursday.

Collegian Who Married the Daughter
of q Boarding House Keeper.

CHICAGO, May l9.-The Tribune says:
after eleven months of weary waiting
parental forgiveness has been extended to
young William w. Sloan, jr., Of Buffalo.
who was married while at Harvard to Miss
Edwards of Cambridge, the iancee of
young Mr. Boeck. of st. Louis on the day
after the wedding of the latter two
was to have taken place in a Cam
bridge church. News that William w.
Sloan, ST., had relented and would take the
young couple into his good graces was
brought to them by John Sloan, of Buff
falo, uncle of the young man, who found
them in apartments at No. 113 Cass street,
in this city. No time was lost in accept
ing the parental proffer of the olive branch
and last night the young man. his bride
of twenty-five and his uncle left over the
Lake Shore for Buffalo.
Miss Edwards's mother was the owner
of a boarding house where Mr.. Boeck
lived in Harvard. He left the university
Edwards. Mr.. Sloan began his studies at
Harvard in the fall of 1898 and found
rooms and board at the Edwards house.
Mr.. Sloan fell in love with Miss Edwards
and she returned his love- Mrs. Edwards
did not look with favor on the new at
tachment. Mr.. Boeck's father was a
wealthy resident of st. Louis. Mr.. Sloan's
father was vice president of the Third Ma
tional Bank OF Buffalo, and worth several
millions, but Mrs. Edwards thought the
old engagement should stand. Plans, how
ever, were made for the wedding of Mr..
Boeck and Miss Edwards. The ceremony
was to have been performed on June %.
1899. The night before that date there was
a rehearsal. But when the guests arrived
at the church the next evening the edifice
was dark, and they found tackled on the
door paper on which was the message:
Wedding postponed Mr.. Sloan and Miss

committee on the invalid fund was read

PARIS. May 19-The unexpected result of
the Paris municipal elections, so unfavora-
bic TO the government, has thrown France
into a state of political uncertainty which
the reassembling of the Chamber of Depu-
ties Tuesday will help to clear up. The
opening debates will show how the hostile
feeling in Paris influenced the position of
the Ministry in the proceedings at the
Palais Bourbon. Prior to the adjournment
of the session it was indicated that the
Cabinets hold on the chamber was far
from secure, and the slap in the face re-
ceived may be followed by a coup de grace
from the deputies. In any case. the fight
in the municipal arena is only the curtain
raiser TO a more deadly struggle between
the NationaIists and the Ministerialists
within Parliament; as the Nationalists, en-
couraged by their victory. are determined
TO try a fall with Waldeck- Rousseau at
the earliest opportunity. The Nationalist
are certain of the support of the malcon-
tent Republicans, headed by ex-Premier
Meline. who are incensed at the Socialist
tint given the ministerial policy by the pre-
dominant influence of M Milierand, the
minister of commerce, aud Also by the
governments partiality towards the Drey-
fus party. This Meline faction of the mod
crate Republicans is most important fac
tor. and IL was the votes of its members
that turned the scale against the ministers
at the Paris election. II M. Waldeck-
Rousseau is defeated in the Chamber, NJ
Meline is regarded as his most probable
successor, with a policy of appeasement
and the wiping of the Dreyfus affair en-
tirely off the slate. He Is vehemently OPP
posed to any resuscitation of the Dreyfus
agitation after the exposition, as is threat
ened by Joseph Reinach and other Drey-
fusards.
NJ Meline. interviewed on the municipal
elections, declares that the result Is
crushing defeat for the government, and
doubts IL the latter will survive the debates
thereon. ut is very probable, ne SAID, III

would already have been minority. Its
days are certainly numbered

cate that their victory has had a SOLDERING
effect upon them and their leaders and or.

policy. The fact Is their victory came as a
surprise.
