the convention, but the action of the
Deputies again places the matter De-
fore the bishops.
The house concurred on the amend
ments to the divorce canon, as made
by the House of Bishops. with no de-
bate and with hardly dissenting vote.
The House of Bishops nominated Tor
bishop cUadjutor of the missionary dls-
trict of South Dakota, the Rev. FRAN
els Taitt, rector of st. Pauls church,
Chester, Pa.
The house took up for consideration
the report of the committee on prayer
book on the proposition to drop from
the title page of the prayer book prot
estant Episcopal" The majority report
of the committee was against TINS
proposition, but a majority report IN
favor, was submitted by Rev. b. Ial-
bot Rogers of Fond Du Lac. WIS. MT.
Rogers moved the adoption of the MI
norlty report. This at once preclpltat-
ed long discussion which developed
along the lines of the discussion when
arose when the proposition to change
the name of the church was before the
house. In addition to Mr.. Rogers. the
minority report Was favored by KEY.
w. r. Huntington of New York, VINO
said that in as much as two great
church bodies, the Presbyterians and
Congregationalists were moving to-
wards the acceptance of liturglcai
service, the commission of the words
protestant Episcopar' would tend to
bring about perhaps a somewhat uni
versal adoption of the Episcopal prayer
book. Another who favored the
change was Rev. w. B. Bodine of Phil
adelphia. Those to oppose included
Rev. Rererdy Estill of Kentucky; Rev.
Geo. c. Foley of Pennsylvania: A. j. c.
Soudon of Massachusetts and DR.. John
Fulton of Philadelphia
The essence of the opposition was that
the house had already decided against
changing the name of the church and the
change the name of the prayer book was
merely a roundabout method of changing
the church name
The motion to substitute the minol ity
report was lost and the majority report
accepted by a voice vote. The vote of the
clericals by dioceses was: Ayes, Is; noes,
2l; divided, r. The laymen vote by do
ceses was: Ayes. 8; noes. j.; divided. 3
In the House of Bishops, today. the
bishop of Dallas was chosen to prepare
the pastoral letter at the triennal con-
venti0n in 1907, and the bishop of Cali
fornia and the bishop of Vermont were
elected to consult with the bishop of Dali
las in preparing the letter.

Declaration of Clergyman in Church
at Brooklyn.

New York, Oct. 24.-In sermon on
the work of missionaries in this cOun-
try during the last 100 years the Rev.
DIR. Newell Wight Hills in Plymouth
church. Brooklyn, has declared that
the men of the West are the true
moulders of the nations destiny.
$50 accustomed are we thinking that
Athens made Greece, that Rome made
Italy, that Paris made France, that
England is London he said, that we
believe now that as New York goes so
goes the destiny of the United States.
But l say that as New York goes so
does not go the destiny and history of
the United States. l do not mean that
New York has no influence, but we in
our self-sufficiency have come to over
emphasize ourselves.
1.-The boy who is nourished in the
city, who all his life has breathed on
ly the tainted air of the city and has
been cramped by his surroundings has
no chance. 1t is the boy who has been
reared far from the ccmplexity of city
life that does things. Here man loses
his individuality. The men who will
make themselves known 40 years hence
are now husking corn IN Nebraska"
The real preachers, DR.. Hills went
on, are those whose work is done in the
West, and he contrasted their field with
his own, saying:
Il am a man who spends his time
mixing tonics to try to get up an appe-
tite in you who are gorged to the point
of gluttOny.
"There is no pessimism beyond the
mountains, no talking down of the in
situations of this country. These men
have now begun a revival of a patriot
ism to oppose the pessimism of you men
of New York. 1t is the West that has
furnished the heroes for the last two or
three generations.
Here you are eating many kinds of
foods, pouring rich wines down your
threats, saturating yourselves with all
kinds Of ease and luxury and then pre-
pairing to die out of life, when God has
put you here for something better. You
are not happy, but in seven days l
could make you happy. Organize the
resources of life in the interest of the
poor and weak and for misery you'll
have happiness. for SelfiShneSs, that
corrodes you will have blade that
washes more and more and then you
will know real luxury-the luxury of

Boston, Oct. 24.-With only TWO days
in which to dspose of q large amount of
business the Episcopal general conven-
ton resumed it's sessions this forenoon
determined to waste no time in needless
dicuSsion. 1t WAS expected that sever
al matters would be referred to the
next convention. Two amendments
tackled to the compromise divorce canon
of the house of deputies by the bishops
on Saturday We're laid before the depu-
ties and it was anticipated that an
agreement would be reached without
further changes of moment being made.
Rev Il. Talbot Rogers of Fond Dn
Lac. Wis, in the House of Bishops call
cd up a resolution previously offered
by him. which referred the subject of
the election of a presiding bishop TO
a joint committee.
Rev Mr. Rogers thought that the
present arrangement entailed too heavy
a burden on the senior bishop and he
advocated that the matter be taken ur-
der consideration by joint commit
tee. the committee to report to the next
general convention. Rev. DR.. ohm Full
ton of Philadelphia thought that all
motions referring to this subject should
originate in the House of Bishops. He
trusted that the resolution should not
prevail.
The necessity for different system
Of choosing a presiding bishop was
recognized by Wilhelmus Myndherse
of Brooklyn. He offered as a substitute
for Mr.. Rogers resolution one provid-
ing for the election of presiding bis
hops every three years by the house of
bishops. the choice to be ratified by the
deputies.
Rev. DIR. William Grosvenor of New
York. said it would be undignified to
elect a presiding bishop every three
years.
Burton Mansfield of New Haven. CT,
opposed Mr.. Myndherse's resolution.
The next speaker. Rev. ]. Lewis Parks
of New York. doubted the advisa bility
of electing presiding bishop for three
years only. He opposed the substitute
of the Brooklyn treaty. The substi-
tute was lost by large majority and
