in Delaware who could not be debauch-

material for psychological investiga-

~o caaNcE A CHURCH NAME

The great body of the American peo-
nie who are interested in the trend OF
human events, have displayed some IN
terest in the heroic efforts certain OF the
clergy and laity of the Protestant Epis-
copal church are putting forth to change
the name Of the organization. The
average man, not STEPPED in theology
or ecclesiastical lore, wonders what 1t
rs all about, and asks why name that
is known and honored, and which ac-
tually designates, should be changed
But it appears that there are men dedi-
Gated to the purpose who are showing

discover one of these doors confront

to one who has suffered for many

cares little for nice ecclesiastical dis
tinctions. will ask what reason there is
for the church to change It's name? The
term Protestant Episcopal" to all
Americans designates a particular
church. 1t is possible that foreigners
may not understand it, but there are
great many things in America OF which
they are ignorant The name that we
associate with a man in time becomes a
part of that man, and seems to fit him
like n glove.
But the chief objection seems to be
that the name does not show the his
torical accuracy that is desirable, since
the claim is made that it is a primitive
church, and as such 1t should have a
name to signify that fact Were this
point to be debated there would be
much to say on both sides, but whether
it dates from the time of the primitive
christian church or from the reign of
Henry VIII, what does 1t matter? II
words change because of their usage,
why has not the term Protestant Epis-
copal come TO designate in the minds of
all a particular church, together with
it's origin and history?
1t seems that Protestant rs the OBJ
jectionabe word, and indeed it is not
very dIgnihed word to designate a
christian church. But it has attained
peculiar meaning from its ecclesiasti-
al use, and as such is regarded by many
eH most eloquent term. But If IL is
held that this religious body is really
the direct descendant Of the primitive
church. and that the Roman church is
the straying member, then the term
protestant" is peculiarly significant. 1t
is still historically accurate, since it
signifies that this church protested and
still protests at the heresy Of Rome.
But if the real purpose is to select
the name Catholic" because it has a
certain venerable flavor and dignity,
and because it is employed by a vast
number of worshippens, then good taste
should prevent. The law relating to
copyright should be made to apply.
Should we inquire into the meaning
Of the nomenclature applied to the var
ious religious bodies we should con-
clude that few of them are happily des-
ignated. Methodist" is meaningless,
save as it has been given a meaning by
the religious body which worships un-
der its name. The name Baptist" re-
garded from the standpoint of deriva-
tion is narrow, since it emphasizes only
one sacrament, of which there are sew
eral. But it makes little difference
what name a church bears, since in time
we will come to associate it with a GER
tain peculiar form. belief and cere-
mony.

christian cannot help reverting to the

The Journals prediction that the de-
feat of Addicks' man Byrne for the
district attorneyship of Delaware would
prove to be the hardest blow the sena-
torial candidate had received, is veri-
fed in fact. It was so hard a blow that
Addicks, after rule or ruin policy in
Delaware politics for IA years, has sur
rendered to the honorable determine
ton OF the regular Republicans of that
State that he should never represent il
in the Senate while life remained in the
Organization.

LIVED IN THE HIDDEN CITY.
Russian Explorer zybIkoff Returns
 From Lhassa.

Special Cable Dispatch to the Sun.
 The Russian explorer zibikoff has just returned from Tibet, where he resided for a year in the capital Lhassa. He de- livered a lecture before the Russian Im- perial Geographical society, in St. Pe- tersburg. Zibikoff is really Buriat and Buddhist in language and religion, and can scarcely be distinguished from the Tibetans themselves. He penetrated Tibet as a lama with caravan of pil- grims who were going to pay veneration to the Dalai, or Great Ocean Lama, the Pope of the Buddhist world. In his lec- ture he said that the estimate of the population of Tibet is undoubtedly exag- gerated. In Tibet proper there are not more than a million people, and the pop ulation Is decreasing, owing to the rav- ages of smallpox and the large number of priests who are pledged to celibacy. The Chinese inhabitants are almost all merchants. The soldiers only remain a few years and are then relieved. Dur ing their stay they take native girls as concubines. Male children are consider ed as Chinese and female children as Tebetans. "
 Many skillful workmen from Nepaul are employed as sculptors and jewellers in the temples. Almost the whole of Gen. tral Tibet belongs to the Delai Lama. who is extending his proprietorship more and more every day. Tebetan cooking Is not very appetizing. The principal dishes are uncooked meat, curded milk, vegetables, butter, soups made of barley meal and pounded bones. A spirit ex- tracted from wheat costs less than half a penny a pint.
 The morality among the Tebetans Is low. Polyandry and polygamy flourish. The people spend their money lavishly on fine clothes. The wealthy residents resemble walking jewellers shops La- bor is paid a little more than a penny a day. A priest will say his best pray CTS a whole day in your behalf for six pence.
 The population of Lhassa is 10000, but pilgrims, merchants and workers are constantly passing through the town. which has circumference of about seven miles. In the center stands a eel ebrated temple containing a gigantic bronze statue of Buddha, with a gold crown decorated with precious stones. Round the statue lamps fed with meltsd butter are always burning. Near the temple is a large courtyard, in which thousands of Lamas assemble twice a year to pray for the Dalai Lama and the Emperor of China.
 The Dalai's palace is on a hill three quarters of a mile from Lhassa Close by are the treasury, the High School of Theology and Medicine, and the resi- dence of 200 court functionaries and 800 monks. The state prison officials are corrupt to the last degree. The army is worthless and is armed with oid-fashion- ed muskets and bows and arrows.

AMERICAN EXPORTERS SAVED.
State Department Persuades Mexico to
 Hold Up on Corn Duty.

Washington, June 27.-A quick and ef- fective piece of work on the part of the state department to prevent loss to Amer ican exporters, is disclosed In a report to the department from United States Am bassador Powell Clayton, dated Mexico, June 27.
 It seems by new tariff to go into eff feet on July 1, the duty on corn imported into Mexico Is to be enormously increased. American shippers were prevented by the western floods from delivering for the June account more than million dollars worth of corn. At the instance of the state department Mir. Clayton on June 14 appealed to Mariscal. the Mexican prime minister. and the latter after consultation with President Diaz. suspended the oper- ation of the new tariff for one month, thus saving the American exporters from ruinous losses.
