Distinctions With Differences.

In making the announcements to his
congregation recently an Episcopal
minister whose parish is not more
than a thousand miles from San Fran
cisco said:
Remember our communion service
next Sunday. The Lord is with us in
the forenoon and the bishop in the
evening"
Here is another lapsus lingua which
had its origin in Sunday school out
in the missions. The superintendent
was making fervid prayer a few
Sundays ago and asked divine bless
ing upon each and every enterprise in
which the school was interested. He
closed his petition. to the throne Of
grace in the following words:
"And now, o Lord. bless the lambs
Of the fold and make them meet for
the kingdom of heaven. Amen ~

WILL CALL. SPECIAL SESSION
WILL ASK BETTER LEVEES
ALONG THE MISSISSIPPI.
Representa- tives of Lower Districts to
Make Request of River Com
missioners Here.

Arsen Perrlliat. member of the State
Board of Engineers of Louisiana; A. II.
Gay, president of the Levee Board Of
Plaquemine, La, and his son, E j. Gay.
arrived in st. Louis yesterday to attend
the meeting Of the Mississippi River Com
mission which will be held in the Fullerton
building tomorrow.
Perrlliat and A. H. Gay constitute the adj
vance guard of the Louisiana delegation,
which is to wait upon the commission and
ask for just allotment of the congressional
appropriation for levee purposes.
This appropriation amounts TO 100000
Mississippi levee districts. asks as much
money as possible for the Improvement OF
the levees.
The Mississippi and Arkansas State dele
cations will arrive in st. Louis this morn
ing and all the other river States will be
represented when the commission meets.
from the various levee districts will be here.
Louisiana alone will send delegation of
thirty. including two Congressman. Adolph
Meyer. member of the Committee on Naval
Affairs. and a. L. Rar.sdell. member of the
Rivers and HarbOr Committee Major
Henry B. Richardson. chief State engineer
OF Louisiana. will also be present.
AT to-morrow's meeting the River Com
mission is to formulate its annual report TO
Congress. and one me, thing that the district
cieased appropriation be asked for.
1t is pointed out that the levee improve
ments already accomplished have shown
that the work saves thousands of dollars
to the inhabitants living in the lowlands of
the Mississippi, The floods in 1Ss2. 1854; 1880.
1885 and 1897 did more damage in each in
stance than the recent high water, although
the fioodtide this time was worse than that
of any of the years mentioned. This condi-
ton Is attributed to the improvement in the
levees and is used as argument in favor
of the further improvement of the river
projections.
1t is expected that conference of the
1evee district representatives will be held
Immediately after the meeting of the River
Commission with view to formulate a
definite plan for presenting a petition to
Congress asking for the increased appro-
priation for levee improvements.
While the commission will be asked to
embody in its report an appeal for an in
creased appropriation. it is. the belief of the
rivermen that much good can be accom-
plished If the ones directly benefited will
send a petition direct to Congress. as sup
Elementary to the recommendation of the
commission.
The conference in St. Louis will probably
result in the calling of a convention of DEL
egates from the levee districts.
