Among Matters Discussed Relations
Between the Church and the stage.

Between the Church and the stage.
Albany, N. Y, Oct. 1.-THE twenty
first meeting of the Church Congress
Of the United States opened to-day with
public choral services in the Cathedral
Of All Saints.
The regular business session of the
congress began tonight in Odd Eel
lows Hall. About 200 delegates were
in attendance, including the leading
dignitaries Of the Episcopal Church
Right Reverend William CroswelI
Doane, bishop of Albany, delivered an
ADDRESS of welcome. Among other
things he said:
The subject we are to discuss here
show how widely men can differ about
many things. agreeing all the while
IN their belief. The catholicity of the
church, as we understand 1t, consists
In Its unity of faith, and its variety of
opinions. Its comprehensivenes must
hold fast to all that is primitive and
true. but it must also lay hold upon
what the progress OF thought and
study finds to be modern and true 1t
has room for, and it invites all hon
est, earnest, serious; thorough research
and investigation"
The topic which had been assigned
for discussion was The Church and
the Drama. and elaborate discourses
were presented by Rev. DR.. Henry Luz
beck OF New York and Rev. DR.. Tomp-
kins of Philadelphia A discussion
followed, led by Rev. A. B. Kinsolving
OF Brooklyn and Rev. w. Z. Bentley Of
New York.
The consensus Of opinion was that
the cultivation of cordial rela-
tons between the church and the stage
would be to the benefit of the Public
al large. The speakers stated that
many OF the present-day dramas
pointed out high moral lessons and
were OF great benfit to humanity 1t
was suggested that IL church members
resolutely set themselves against lewd
and vulgar plays and patronixed only
such as taught high standards of mo-
rality, and painted pictures that would
benefit morality, theatrical managers
would quickly withdraw immoral and
indecent plays" -fs

Judging IA Gem.
From the New York Press.

from the new 1OTk HTeSS.
Mrs. - visited one OF the more
important diamond houses IN Maiden
lane yesterday to learn IL a blue stone
she had was a genuine sapphire or a
crystal The stone expert. a man of
experience and a fat salary, pronounc-
ed it a sapphire just at the moment
when the head of the house approach
ed. II am afraid you are mistaken"
said the latter. 81 do not believe II is
genuine because Of the setting. which
is plated. Pure gems are not so cheap
ly mounted" The two men retired to
a private den and held a consultation,
presently returning to say that the y
could not come to an agreement, and
would send the stone to the abIest ex-
pert in New York. The messenger re-
turned in ten minutes saying that It
was piece of glass, and that verdict
was accepted by all except the owner.
Judging gems by their settings. or
mountinRs is common and generally
safe. But let us not forget that the an
est diamond ever found was in an iron
setting.
The owner of the alleged sapphire
visited another house in the lane and
submitted her gem There was anoth-
er long consultation, and the hesitation
of the experts caused her hopes to as

must have been most wonderful TO pug

decision was that it was crystal The
only sure way to prove It," said the
expert, lis to try the file on It. Nothing
but a diamond will cut a sapphire. II

course. Three strokes OF the file re-
moved the point at the back. and ma
dame went home crest-fallen. but sat
jsfied.

but whether he, has or not, the ofricials
will not say. Secretary Root was at
the White House for an hour this at
ternoon, and the belief is that he dis
cuSsed again with the President feat
ures bearing on the coal strike, but he
would not talk about the matter.
The President has agreed to APP
point the commission suggested by the
coal operators. provided such a com
mission should prove satisfactory TO
the miners.
The FEELING at the White House dur
ing the day was optimistic. The belief
was general among officials and civil
ian callers that a long step had been
taken toward a fiTal settlement OF the
strike.
It developed to-day that the main
features of the operators proposition
were discussed and In a general way
agreed to at the conference between
Secretary Root and ]. P. Morgan in
New York on Saturday last. Mr.. Nor
gan was very anxious to bring about
an adjustment, and Secretary Root was
able TO point out means whereby the
main obstacles to yielding on the part
OF the operators could be removed.
Two names suggested for member
ship on the commission OF arbitration
are Carroll d. Wright, the commits
sioner OF labor. and f. w. Parker.

Washington, Oct. IA. - President
Gornpers, of the American Federation
OF Labor, tonight said:
I'm my opinion the proposition made
by the operators. at least. so far as
their designation of who should be in
vited to go on the commission OF ar
bitration is concerned. is an insult to
the President OF the United States.
desire that the President should use
his discretion in the selection of the
personnel of the commission.
Mr.. Mitchell has said that he will
be perfectly satisfied with whomever
the President selects. II the mine own
ers are to be permitted to suggest who
shall constitute the Arbitration Com
mission why in all fairness should IL
not follow that Mr.. Mitchell should
likewise be permitted to make sugges-
lions as to the personnel OF the COM
mission? hope that the President will
decline to act on this proposition of
the mine owners unless he is given a
free hand"
