PERTAINING TO CHURCHES.

The Wesleyan Methodists' church is
the largest in point of numbers Of
the seven Methodist churches which
exist in Great Britain. The Wesley
an Reformers' is the smallest.
Bishop Schereschcwsly, one Of the
missionary bishops of the Protestant
Episcopal church, is engaged in
translating the Scriptures from the
original tongues into the Weu-li dia-
lect of the Chinese language.
David Hume, the great infidel phi
losopher, was once charged with in-
consistency in attending upon the
ministry of John Brown, Scottish
minister, and he replied: II don't
believe all he says, but he does, and
once a week ] like to hear a man
who believes what he says"

Don't Pay for Another's Dinner.

"0rder what you want; pay for what you
order" is the unique way in which the
Lackawanna Railroad is advertising its new
dining-car service. The aptness of the
phrase is apparent when it is understood
that the traveller may order from the most
complete menu, and yet pay, for nothing he
meals are served individually from 35 cents
to $l.0O, so that table d'hote and q Ia
carte features are virtually combined. All
through trains to Buffalo, Chicago and st.
Louis are equipped with dining-cars, and
the service is admitted to be second to none
in the world.

Mexico and Austria Resume Dr.
plOnlatr Relations.
Mexico will also send Ministers
to South American Republics.
Congress of American: Republics.

Diplomatic relations between Austria
international estrangement dating from the
days when young Macmillan sought to
gain foothold in Mexico and lost has life
in the adventure. A bill has passed the
Mexican congress reciting the fact of a
rapprochement and providing for minis
ter to Austria at salary of $4,000 a
year. Austria will take similar action by
sending a minister to Mexico.
Tie Mexican government has taken steps
also to resume diplomatic communication
With South Americann countries, the first
move in that direction being the appoint
ment of . Mexican minister to the Argen-
tine Republic. For many years there has
been no diplomatic intercourse between
Mexico and her sister republics on the
southern continent, as there was little com
merce between them and few political
questions requiring diplomatic representa-
ton. Recently, however, Argentina made
friendly move by accrediting a minister
both to Washington and to the City of
Mexico, and Uruguy has taken similar &C.
ton. The selection of the City of Mexico
as the place for holding the congress 0
American republics has had further in
fluence in inducing Mexico to extend her
relations with southern countries. A minis.
ter to Argentina has been named, and one
to Uruguay probably will be appointed
soon. 1t is expected that it will develop
speedily into an extension of diplomatic re-
lations between Mexico and all of the
South American countries.

Consul Hughes of Coburg writes to the
State Department that the lead.pencil in

from American competition. 1t is alleged
that our success in this branch of industry
is mostly due to the perfection of the ma
chinery. Another important point is the
fact that zoe haue the best cedar wood,
which is particularly suitable for the manu-
factu-e of lead-pencils; while the Germans
are compelled to import it, and caunot get
it in such good quality. Numerous trials
have been made to fiud another material
which could take the place of ,cood in the
manufacture of leadpencils metal tubes,
coverings made from relied, compressed pa
per, etc, have been used, but none have
met with success.

Bermuda People Not Pleased
With the Prospect.
British Government Leases
"Darrell's Island

1t is reported from Hamilton, Ber muda,
that there is considerable excitement at
present in Bermuda over the expected
arrival of ], 200 Boer prisoners. The British
Government has leased q Darrelis Island"
on of the largest islands in the Sound and
wit hin quarter of mile of Warwick shore,
for one year, with the option of relinquish.
ing it at months notice. fuckers Island
has also been inspected, ;but TO definite
settlement has get been made in regard to it..
The army officials are, as usual, very
reticent, and nothing can be learned from
them on the subject; but, as the blarkSmiths
OF the town have been sounded as TO their
ability to construct several hundred yards
of iron fence, very strong; close, high, and
with spike points, and as the plans which
one or taco have seen are said to be the
outline of one Of the islands. very little
doubt is entertained as to the object in view
by the Government. 1t is asserted that
had the island not been wanted for the pri-
soners, but for the several hundred British
labOrers who are going QUITO build the new
swing bridge to connect the dOckyard With
the mainland, no such iron fencing would
have been inquired about, and the rtgotla-
tions for Darrell's Island would have been
made by the raval authorities. whereas
everything is uelng done 10y army officials.
BERN uda people are not feeling very
Comfortable over the matter. The island
is still garrisoned by the boored regiment,
the First West India and their behavior
is by no means calculated to inspire the
confidence of the people they are supposed
to guard. 1t is hoped thai a very strong
force of European soldiers will be sent with
the Beers, or matters, it us feared, may be
as uncomfortable as the, were recently at
ST. Helena.

IS AGAINST SCHLEY.
His Bill of Exceptions Is Passed Upon
by Judge Advocate Lemly and
Solicitor Hanna.

Washington, Dec. 21-Judge Advo-
cate Lemly and Solicitor Hanna Fri
day afternoon submitted to Secretary
Long their report upon the bill of
objections filed by Admiral Schley,
through his counsel, to the findings
of the Schley court of inquiry. In
substance this report is an argu-
ment supplementary to the argument
made by the writer's before the court
of inquiry. The principal points are
an insistence upon their contention
that the first report is the unanimous
report of the court of inquiry; that
the court was justified in rejecting
Admiral Schley's evidence by the
number of witnesses who took issue
with him and that there is no suffi-
Gent reason for a reopening of the
case as requested by Admiral Schley.
Secretary Long has not yet acted
upon the report, but is expected to
do so Saturday. If adopted, the re-
port will be forwarded to Admiral
Schley.
