.INN8CEHlS CAN RE-MBRRY
COMPROMISE CANON ADOPTED
BY EP1scoPAL DEPUTIES.

-If the House of bishops Concurs
the Whole Question That Has Been
stirring the Church for Long Time
win be disposed of for mt Least
Three Years.
Boston, Oct. 20-By an oyerwhelm-
ing majority compromise canon on
the re-marriage of divorced persons
was adopted by the house of deputies
of the Episcopal general convention
to-day, and If it is concurred in by the
house of bishops the most important
issue that has come before the present
convention will be disposed of for at
least three years. The compromise
measure, like the old law, permits the
re-marriage of the innocent person in
a divorce for infidelity, but further pro-
vides that no re-marriage will be all
lowed within one year after a decree
has been issued by a civil court. SAT-
isfactory proof Of the innocence of the
applicant for re-marriage must be fur
nished in the shape of court records,
and after the consent of the bishop is
obtained, clergyman may refuse to
perform such a ceremony without sub
jecting himself to censure or discipline.
In the opinion of Francis A. Lewis
of Philadelphia. member of the COM
mittee on canons, who favored no re-
marriage Of any divorced person, but
who accepted the compromise, the can
on adopted to-day is so strict that If
endorsed by the bishops it will prac-
tically put the church. as he expressed
it, "out Of the divorce business 9th
ers, however, claimed that they saw
loopho1es in it. The vote on the pass
age stood: Clerical 50 dioceses for, I

cent iron and shows improvements as
the work advances.
The International Iron company
controls 1000 acres of the island, and
owns a part Of it in fee. The lands
are fifteen miles from the line of the
Port Arthur, Duluth & Western road
and tlirty-fiye miles from this city.
This property is in the eastern extern
sion of the Vermilion range.
Lon. Merritt asserts that twenty
years ago, it was known, in a vague
way. that the Minnesota iron range
extended across the border into Can
ada. In the year 1887 the Merritt
brothers having already evolved the
basin or trough theory of iron forma-
tion, which is now generally accepted
undertook to trace the Vermilion
range eastward from section 30-63-Il.
At the same time they began explora-
tions on the Mesaba range.
Owing TO the difficulty of obtaining
supplies, explorations on the western
VeImilion ceased that year before
much was accomplished. Discoveries
of such magnitude were made on the
Mesaba by the Merritts the following
season that further work ON the Yer
million was postponed.
Mr.. Merritt and associates are also
actively exploring section 80 with
satisfactory results.

Personal Taxes.

More than 500, 900 in personal pre-
perty taxes was taken in at the office
of the county treasurer Monday, the
rush being due to the fact that it was
the last day before the 10 per cent
penalty goes into effect.
From now until about the middle Of
April those who have not paid their
personal property taxes will be re-
quired TO pay 10 per cent additional
and after April Is those accounts
which have not been settled will lie
placed in the hands of the sheriff for
collection.
In the event that the sheriff in I'M
able to secure the amounts due tile
county lie is at liberty to sell tie
property upon which the taxes have
not been paid and those who do settle
after the taxes are put in the sheriff's
hands will be required TO pay clerk of
courts fees and mileage for the
sheriff's deputies.
