The Deposition of p. K. Nugent

We are in receipt Of Il card from
Mr., p. Il. Nugent, dated at Valley
Center, Nov. Is, requesting that we
supplement our mention of recent
date, of his deposition from the
Episcopal ministry, with the fact
that such action was taken at his
own request and not as a disciple
nary measure.
The article, in a Richmond paper,
from which We gathered our infor-
nation. we believe, did not mention
this fact III so many words, but it
did say that il was entirely on tie
question Of doctrine spoken of that
the deposition VAS made, and not
that any thing could lie said against
the character OF MIR Nugent.
The article also spoke Of him as
doing a good work in Richmond
as street preacher.

more phosphoric acid in easily d.

across the continent and back made its

and a general demonstration of affection
and regard as the head of the nation

THE PACIFIC COAST, COVERING 1880 MILES.

ecutive offices at Washington have been
devoting q considerable portion of their
time to making the preliminary arrange
ments for the largest trip ever arranged
for a president. of the United States. The
constitution provides that no man, while
serving in the highest position within
the gift of the nation. shall journey be-
yond the confines of the country, and in
the case OF the present occupant of the
White House at least duty wholly coin
eides with inclination.
With this journey to the Pacific coast,
to be present at the launching of the
battleship Ohio, President Mckinley
may virtually be said to complete an
inspection of the vast domain whose
destinies he directs, just as railroad Off
cials periodically make visits to the var
ious branches of the system under their
control. The tour of the president to
Chicago and the Northwest in the au-
tumn of 1890 carried him across the
states of Pennsylvania, Ohia, Indiana
and Illinois and into Iowa, Wisconsin,
Minnesota and the Dakotas Another
journey took him through New Eng
land, and third embraced the greater
portion of the southern states along the
Atlantic seaboard.
Now comes the most extensive jour

skirting the Mexican border and cutting
across Arizona and New Mexico to Cal
ifornia. After the stop at San Francisco
the tourists will go north, through Yel-
lowstone Park, and into that Puget
Sound country, visiting Seattle, Tacoma,
Portland and other cities. Returning,
stops will be made at Salt Lake City,
and possibly at Denver, and from Du-
luth to Chicago the party will proceed
down the great lakes by steamer to Buff
falo, where the visit to the Pan-Ameri-
can exposition will conclude the tour
proper
The preparation for a presidential
journey of any length begins as soon as
the announcement is made that such
trip is in contemplation. Invitations
and requests of every imaginable sort
begin to pour in by the bushel from al
most every city, village and hamlet
through which the train is to pass.
These are all carefully tabulated and
filed, as is also every scrap of informa =
tion bearing in any way upon the pros
pective journey. Some of the invitations
which come to the president take the
form of exceptionally handsome souven-
irs, as, for instance, the gold mounted
ballOt-bOx and the large engraved plate
Of solid gold sent to President Mckinley
some time since Dy CallIOrnla OTgan1za-
tions who thus besought him to be their
guest.
Some weeks before the time set for the
journey the secretary to the president
sets about the preparation of an timer
airy for the trip. He does this by sketch
ing out a chart of the route to be fol-
lowed, noting the different lines of rail-
road that will have to be travelled, the
cities at which it is desired to stop and
what intervals will be occupied by TIE
various flying visits. After weeks of ar
