will assemble at the depot upon arriv-

them the hospitalites of the town,
show them the special resources of that
particular section, offer them souvenirs
and show them such other couItesieS

REPUBLICAN STATETIckET
DIVISION CARRIED
UNANIMOUSLY

The question of the division OF the
diocese of Central Pennsylvania, the
most important matter before che Ep-
iscopal diocesan convention, was
speedily disposed of this morning,
The committee reported in favor OF
the division suggested by Bishop Tai
bot, and when the vote was taken, DIV
ision carried unanimously. This means
that new diocese will be formed OF
the western portion, consisting OF
Harrisburg and Williamsport. The
arch deaconries of Scranton and Read
ing remain in the old diocese.
The matter of the division of the
diocese had been made a special order
at 10 80 O'Clock At that time the
report OF the committee was read. The
committee unanimously favored the
division and suggested in its report
that the new diocese should embrace
the archdeaconries of WllllamspoGt
and Harrisburg, including the follow
lug counties: Potter. Tioga, Clinton,
Lycomiug. Sullivan, Centre, Union,
Northumberland, MOntour, Columbia,
Blair, Huntingdon, Mifflin, Snyder,
Juniata Perry, Cumberland, Dauphin,
Bedford, Fulton, Franklin, Adams,
York and Lancaster.
The report also included resolutions
providing that the episcopal endoW-
ment should be divided between the
two new dioceses each receiving that
portion that had been subscribed by
communicates of the parishes within
its borders. Provision was also made
for committees of five members III
each of the dioceses to take such ac-
tion in the matter as might be neces-
sary in the completion of the division,
in case it can be accomplished before
the meeting next year.
The expected discussion Of the re-
port of the committee did not mater
ialze. There were several speeches,
and one amendment was offered chang
ing Lancaster from the new to the
old but the amendment was lost and
a vote called for. Because of the fact
that several delegates did not know
that the original question was being
put, two votes were taken. The first
time there were but a few scattering
"noes." and the second time it was
unanimously carried. -Williamsport
