St Petersburg. Oct. 6.-Military crit

the situation at the front IL Field Mar

vance. They seem to agree that a
strong screening movement is in pro-

conclusion is that the Japanese forces

Japanese GERS are at the head OF
bands of Chinese bandits operating on

Boston. Oct. CIR the first time In

formal assemb;y Wednesday of the
American Episcopal church. He was
received with all the honors due his
rank, and as the guest Of the American
church accorded a hearty welcome by
the four score of bishops OF the va
rious dioceses.
This convention is regarded as the
most important ever held by the Epis-
copal denomination. Proposed legisla-
ton embraces questions of moral re-
form, alterations in ecclesiastical ad-
ministration and even a change in the
name Of the church itself. The house
of bishops and the house of clerical and
lay deputies, legislative bodies. will
devote three weeks to consideration of
business. and on several topics. such as
the movement to prevent remarriage
by the clergy OF divorced person
while the former partner is living. and
demand from certain quarters to omit
the word Protestant" from the church
In the United States. Protracted dis
cussion is anticipated. A proposal to
group dioceses into provinces with a
senior bishop or primate at the head
of each proposed district. and plan
to have a final court OF review estab-
lished to hear appeals from diocesan
courts will also be warmly debated.
Missions at home and abroad will be
another subject.
The features OF Wednesday were the
presence of the English primate. and
procession of dignitaries. which formed
the most imposing spectacle ever seen
in the Episcopal church in this coun-
try. The sermon was delivered at the
opening services in Trinity church by

THE SINGER AT THE
EXPOSITION.

The name of SINGER stands
for 90 family sewing machine in every
known language. The familiar sign
with its brilliant carmine as " is found
in every city in the world, and no prod
or has wider vogue.
The fact that Singer machines
are "made for every stitching pro-
cess" used in manufactures is not so
well known and most visitors to the
Exposition will be greatly interested
in the exhibit to be made by THE
SINGER MANUFACTURING COM
PANY.
There will be two Singer pavil-
ions, one in the Manufactures Building,
from the American factories, and one
in the Varied Industries Building,
from the British factory.
Here one may see the practical
manufacture of Corsets, Muslin Un-
derwear, Shoes, Mems Wear, ETC., by
operatives from leading establish
ments in these industries. There viii
be machines for stitching the heaviest
rubber and leather betting, for making
a dozen dainty tucls at once, for
attaching all kinds of buttons, hooks
and eyelets, for sewing sails, for
stitching kid gloves and furs, in short,
for everything that can, or might
be stitched.
There are eighty, or more dis
tinct types of Singer sewing-machines
for manufacturing purposes, and these
types are adapted to many hundred
varieties for a thousand or more spe-
cial uses, all interesting and educa-
tional to the great majority of people.
The display of Art Needleworl,
for which the Singer Company has
long been noted, will excel anything
previously shown; and the various
types of sewing for family
use will include some new designs
recently perfected and about to be
placed on the market.
