pointed year ago to prepare report
upon the revision of the creed or testi-

adoption of the following resolutions:
That, while the fifteenth article of

Fort Dodge. May 22.-The cororer's
Jury called to the inquest on the body
of George Mcmahon returned verdict
that the deceased came to his death
between April IL, 1901, at 10 p. M, and
May 10. at 9 a. M, by unknown means
Nineteen witnesses We're heard and
every effort was made to clear up the
mystery of the death. The decomposed
condition of the body rendered it i'm
possible to determine whether 1t had
suffered foul play or not and no evil
dence was discovered which could be
considered to have any definite bearing
on the case.
Whether Mcmahon wandered into the
Slough while in a drunken frenzy and
there persisted miserably, or whether he
was first knocked down and killed and
was then thrust into this place of con-
cealment by those DESTROYS of hiding
their crime, will probably never be
known.

The EPISCOPAL CONVENTION.
Annual Session or tho Town Diocese
Mt Des Nioincs


Des Moines, May 22.-rhe principal
feature of todays session of the Episco-
pal diocesan convention was the mis-
sionary meeting held this morning, al.
which Bishop Morrison, Rev. Joseph
Rushton of Chicago, and Miss Lille.
Crimmer, of Shanghai. We're leading
speakers Diocesan Treasurer Cassidy
reported he had on hand s1o2,065 in VAR
ious funds of which $4,000 was for in
digent and infirm clergymen.
Bishop Morrison delivered his annual
address to the clergy and laity of the
state on Tuesday afternoon. He said
in part
THE past year has been a good one.
There has been. thank Cod peace an1
unity turnout the diocese. The clergy
have labored most faithfully and not
without visible tokens of success. The
condition of most of our parishes and
missions is somewhat better than year
ago. The people seem more devout.
There has been greater interest in mis-
sions and a spirit of hopefuness is evil
dent everywhere. We ought to be, am
sure most thankful"
Five things the Episcopal church
stands for Bishop Morrison dwelt upon
as follows:
1. That God has made a revelation
and that the Bible, is the record of that
revelation.
2. This creed is for all time and for all
places
3. The church is the divine organiza-
ton; Ii is the Lord body, the organfza-
ton thru which He acts.
4. The church Is to insist on the idea
of worship. and to present a sacrifice of
y,
privilege of all men.
5. The church has ever set obedience
above emotion. and has stood for RAJ
1ional, we'll proportional idea of the
Christian life.
Continuing Bishop Morrison said: ITO
be righteous kind-hearted. helpful,
charitable men; to carry out into the at
5 fairs of life the application of what we
believe. to be profoundly interested in
all that makes for human well-being,
to have men feel thatwe are the friends
of all good causes and helpful enterprs-
es; to be profoundly interested in men
and all that touches their life-this is
the consistent application of our princi-
pies. and spiritual fruit of the seed we
SOW. Only as we make better men and
women: only as we reach the great
world with loving sympathy and help
fulness. Will we succeed in drawing men
to the church. The world has little time
for logic. historical investigation, the
rights of Institutions now. as ever. me-.
feel personal influence. are sensible of
the presence of a force. working for
righteousness acknowledged results. If
in nay community where we go the
priest has more of the spirit of Christ
then other men will acknowledge that it
is SO. If our laymen are type of high
er manhood: II we are producing better
men and women than are produced
elsewhere the world will seek us out
We may rebel against the priest soone.
or later the community weighs every
man In the balance"
