p.stornI Letter.

Bishops in Episcopal general conven- tions issue a pastoral letter. and depu~ ties. viz: the lower house, report on fine state of the church. Bishop Potter was author of this trienniaPs pastoral letter. It touches live topics and IS not so long as to weary congregationss before thousands of which 1t will be read The deputies figure out the member shin of the Episcopal church to pc s04,3oS, for the first time above the soo'- O0O mark. This Is an increase during the last three years of s per cenr' or 2s ga per cent, per decade.
 Twenty-seven years ago. Wnen tne general convention last met m bos- lon. the membership. actual was z9T'- 500. Contributions during the last three years reached SS1 5OOsOOo, or an amount per member that is larger than inc average obtaining in any other re- liTious body in America, if not In the world. The number Of American Eniscopal bishops Is now ninety-four. ana if none die before those elected are consecrated and the new dioceses created get their new bishops elect and cousecrated; say, if none die be- fore January 1, 1905. the number will be exactly 100 or a considerable larger number than the church ever had before.

|DISPENSARY AT ELIZA
EFFORT MADE TO NEGATIVE ACT
 or ~LEGIsLATUnE.,
Case. ef Far-reaehing Imporfance is Submitted to Supreme Ccurt-- May Affect all Dispensasfes
 fn Alabama,

An appeal from the Coffee County Circuit Court. which gave judgment in favor of Mayor A. V. Buck of Eiba, instituting quo warranto proceedings to oust from ofice M. J. Lee, dr.. D. W. Clark and A. M. Mccullough. Commits sioners of the dispensary in that town. was filed with the Alabama Supreme Court yesterday.
 Attorney R. H. Arlington ana former Attorney General w, l., Martin will ap- pear for the appellants on the hearing by the Supreme Court.
 If the Supreme Court sustains the lowed court in this case on one point affecting the Constitution a general disruption of the entire dispensary sys- tenn of liquor Legislation throughout the State will result. This refers to one thing related by counsel for Mayor Buck, and that Is the special act of the Legislature creating a dispensary for the town of Eiba violated Section 23 of the State Constitution, which for- bids the granting of special privileges or immunfties. ft'e A decision on this point would affect every dispensary in the State. as each dispensary was established by special enactment.
 bcSiueS tHlS dHcBeu NloiAllon, couH- sel for Mayor Buck relates that the dis. pensary act for Elba also violated Sec ton 106 of the Constitation. in that notice of the proposed passage of the act was not given as required. It Is further related that the act Is contrary to Subdivision IS of Section 10i of the Constitution by amending the charter of the town of Elba.
 An opinion In this case will be await ed with interest by those communities in which dispensaries are operated.
 No opinions were handed down yes- terday by the Supreme Court.

r. Montgomery, Ala, Nov. 16, 1904. The Journal of Selma. Ala. has the following among other things: "The Alabama Baptist University. Colored, is an institution about which more should be known, not only by the people of Selma, but of the State. Com- paratively few of the citizens of this or other localities know of the work or scope of the Alabama Baptist Uni versity, Colored, located on Maple Street, Selma. Ala. This morning on invitation from Rev. R. Y. Pollard, President, the editor of The Journal, accompanied by Hon. H. S. D. Mallory and Hon. A. L. Mcleod, vis- ited the University.

The school was established In 1878. and Is man aged by board of fifteen trustees. i've of whom are elected by the Alabama Baptist Colored Convention every year. The departments are literary theoiog- icaI, musical and industrial The an- nual expense is about SiO,000.00. About S2. .0Do.O0 of this amount Is secured from friends outside of the State. the ball ance is met by the colored Baptists of Alabama" The annual meeting of the Alabama Baptist Colored Convention will take place in this city, beginning Wednesday. November g. 1904. The Board of Trustees of this school have just been through the struggle of erecting a much needed chapel. 125x63. four stories high. The building Is not compieted,s but is so 1t can be used. Rev. W. H. McAlpine. Dean of the The ologicaI Department, has been appoint ed as soliciting agent of this school for a few weeks, and is In our city. He comes with strong papers. signed by Hon. H. s. D. Mallory and Rev.

 1 Eufaula, Nov. le.--ts Special )--Gcod- man Espy, a prominent farmer who re- sides sixteen miles south of the city. reached here this morning from Mari anna, Fla, where he had been in pur- suit of thief who stole his horse and buggy from his home several days ago. MT. Espy not only succeeded ip getting his horse and buggy but re- turned with the thief also. The ac- cused is a negro.
 The rainfall in this section for the past two or three weeks has only amounted to I1-1o0 of an Inch but has proved a great blessing to farm CTS throughout the County. No change in the condition of the river has been noticed 90 far however, and navigation is yet at . complete stand still.
 Citizens are still being annoyed by thieves at the postofice and are aax- iousiy awaiting the day when relief will come. No blame Is attached to the postefiice force. but the trouble comes from the boxes which are old and worn out and can be opened easily. Several men have been robbed recent ly of packages that were valued from three to five dollars and complaint Is now being nado that letters are also being frequently missed
 The city presents quite a neat ap- pearance in the new pavements that adorn the north side of Broad Street. 4 grade line has been established and all of the property owners will be re. quired to come up to 1t. The worIs has been completed on the north side and Is now going on all over the city.
 The grand jury is still busily en- gagged In looking into iawlessness and crime and it is thought 1t will find quite a number of true bills. N

The warehouse was the property of the Troy Gin Com pany or Charles Henderson, and was probably insured. ~.sef
 No. one knows how the fire orisinat- ed. It started on the inside of the warehouse and Is thought to have caught from sparks from a passing en- zine. Trains were delayed for an hour

neafh. ef Isiaore Rush,

Every patron of southern theatres, said a frequenter of piayhouses, will regret deeply 7 the death of Isidure Rush, who, according to prees dis patches, was overcome while surf -bath- ing on the California coast Monday and expired before she was relieved.
 Miss Rush had visited the southern states every season for great many years, and she had many warm personal friends in this section as well as 9 wide circle of admirers, who were not so fortunate as to have. come within the sphere of her winning personality.
 "The last time Miss Rush was seen in Montgomery she was playing one or the principal parts with the 'Flor0dora company. It was a part somewhat out of her line, but she invested it with great charm. As Is well-known. she was a number of years leading woman for her husband. the late Roland Reed She and Mir. Reed were great favorites and they Invariably drew large audi ences throughout the South. Although Mir Reed was n great deal older than his wife. 1t was often said by stage people that no more devoted couple ever lived than the actor and actress whose lives were so closely Inter woven.
 since the death of Mir. Reed, Isidore Rush cast her talents into so-caiied musical comedy. where she was as sne- cessfui as she had been in legitimate comedy" t4.t ss
