irincc S%viatopolk -Mirsky's enemies.
Many of he minister's friends are in
clined now to believe that the Zem-

The duty of all friends OF a liberal

There was some talk this afternoon
of AN offer on the part of the govern
ment to compromise with the zem-
stvoists by giving the Zenstvos a voice
In the council Of the empire which is
the l~awlmaking body. The proposition
is to elect two members of each zem-
t to sit in the council and partici-
pate i'll it's deliberations. but not to
vote. Such a plan, it is pointed out,
while not giving the zemstvos a share
in the ~lawmaking would insure the
presentation of the views of the prov
inces on all laws enacted.

employed in the written language of that
country is regarded as ve.y probable by
Prince Fushimi, who is in ST. Louis visit

A. Sato, master OF the princes, house

committee composed OF members Of the
Roman Character society is making an
investigation under the sanction OF the
imperial government with a View to de-
vising a plan 10 introduce the change.
There is little doubt" he said, that
the change will be made. The prince is
heartily in sympathy with the movement.
The emperor regards the plan with much
favor and in official circles generally the
substitution is advocated.
The adoption Of the Roman characters
would rob japanese literature of much
of its sweetness and beauty, but the pro-
posed change is regarded with favor be-
cause 1t means progress.
English is more generally spoken in
Japan than the average person in this
country realizes. and is taught in our
schools"

ADOPTS NEW CREED.
Presbyterian Seminary Discards tho
Westminster Confession for One
of Its Own,

New York, Nov. 29.-Considerably stir
mas been caused in church circles by the
announcement, made at Pittsburg at a
society function attended by 100 minis
ters, that the Union Theological SEM
mary had discarded the Westminster
confession of faith, and that the faculty
of the seminary had accepted one thei1
own, by a unanimous vote. 1t a also
reported in connection with this that
gifts to the seminary of $3.50, 900 were

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov. 26.-Dr. David
Schley Schaff, professor OF church his
tory at Western Theological seminary,
today confirmed the report that Union
Theological seminary of New York had
discarded the Westminster confession
of faith and unanimously adopted a
new creed.
Rev. Dr.. Francis Brown of Union
Theological seminary said today the
board of directors of the seminary had
recently decided to fall pack upon the
original charter Obligations of the SEM
mary in reference to qualifications of
directors and professors. The original
charter did not require subscription To
the Westminster confession of faith.
Continuing DR.. Brown said:
The recent action Of the board of di-
rectors in returning to the original
charter Obligations does not alter the
attitude OF the present members Of the
board toward the Presbyterian church
and the Westminster confession. II
makes 1t possible in future to have rec
tors who, although they are not pre-
pared TO subscribe to the confession,
are earnest. Christian men. For years
past the seminary has had professors
who are not PreSbyterians."
Union Theological seminary has not
been regarded as a Presbyterian insti-
tuition in good standing since the ia
NOUS Briggs neresy trial. DIR. Briggs,
a member of it's faculty. denied the
doctrine of Christ's divinity and took
other radical positions. resulting in the
most famous heresy trial in America
in generations. He was convicted Of
heresy. Union seminary stood with
him and has been rather independent
in its views eve nee.
The rejection of the Westminster
confession at this time is the more re-
markable because, at Il recent general
convention OF the Presbyterian church
in the United States. the old confess
sion was revised to meet the demands
of those who objected to it's declara-
ton of beliefs as to predestination.
