New York, Nov. 25.-Thahksgjving Day marks the beginning of the season of good will when the heart of the me- tropolis opens most generously to "the Poor Brother" In the month from then till Christmas the city's good works--and their name has become le- Eion--receive new impetus; and as the thousands with whom they have to do grow to be millions the problems they must face are more and more pressing as well as increasingly difficult to set tie.
 Each year the part of its betterment work for which the community looks to the churches is enlarged. As they return to the good, old-fashioned mean ing of Christian ministry--"service to a brother man"--the mission of the diff ferent religious societies and denomi- nations Is becoming less a matter of disseminating creeds and more one Of opportunities for self-improvement. So it is not surprising to find that with the building of the great Cathedral of St. John the Divine there is being laid the foundation for what will ultimately be one of the greatest schemes of mis- sion work ever undertaken in any city in the world.
 It is thoroughly American, this de- velopment of a~cathedral. In England. with all it's splendid ecclesiastical ar- chitecture, the cathedral Is more an im- pressive symbol than a great spiritual organization. Here, the church of St. John the Divine is intended to be characteristicalIy democratic institu- tion. seeking to influence the lives of those about 1t. not only in the great

 .nder it's influence to move uptown, or out of the city altogether, into better light and air. Beside dozen resident workers. there are connected with the fifty or more organizations which the Chapel of the Epiphany directs some 150 men and women who come from their comfortable homes all over the city to spend an afternoon or m even- ing each week in the slums; and by their process of elimination they arc reaching a constantly lower and lower level of society with their good infiu- ences.
 Almost next door to the municipal police headquarters and just above Mulberry Bend of unsavory reputation, in the heart of the Italian tenement quarter, is St. Barnabas House, which gives a temporary resting place to dcs- titute women and orphan children. Here the convalescents discharged from the hospitals and the friendless arc cared for. regardless of color, creed or race, till they regain full strength. Thers Is connected with the home dispensary where any one may get medical advice without charge; and there Is also clothing bureau.
 At Gods Providence House, which is over between the Bowery and the East River front, the work is all for chill dren. There Is a day nursery. a kim dergarten, and classes for children of school age who are cared for from the hour when they are released from the oversight of their regular teachers till their mothers return from their days work: and there is a vested choir of some twenty-four of the youngsters which does much to attract to the Sun

 Perhaps the most concrete illustra- tion of the institutional church" is the big, five-story building of St. Bartholo- news parish. just east Of Third Ave- nue in Forty-second Street. It has in the parish house girls clubs with q membership of nearly hundrcd: clubs for boys and men with 1900 members: lectures and entertainments, physical culture classes, instruction in 6 dozen branches of learning, training in dress making, millinery. embroidery. sewing and cooking.
 There is a loan bureau where more than $e0,000 year is advanced to poor folks to be paid back in monthly install ments; there is restaurant where food may be had at very low price, but not without price, for he who would share the generosity of St. Bartholomew's must show a willingness to do some thing for what is given him: an em- ployment bureau secures situations for from 1000 to 2.500 persons q year: the tailor shop makes and makes over gar- ments that arc distributed by the thou sands through the benevolent society and sold by the hundreds at nominal figures.
 No need of its neighborhood is over- looked by St. BarthoIomew's. It sup ports an Oriental Mission, Chinese Sunday School, a Swedish Chapel, a Rescue Mission for men and women, a Fresh Air Mission. a Seaside Cottage. It has a Prevalent Fund for encourag- ing thrift. 1t maintains a system of tenement house investigation, 1t sup ports kindergartens. an eye and ear dispensary. a surgical clinic. free wood and coal bureau, library gym nasiums. and a dozen other features.
 Not the least interesting of the Epis- copai Mission work of this city Is that done in prisons and hospitals. On Island there is a S70,00o chapel connected with the poor house, but in many of the city's institutions the various religious workers must share in common a single room In more than one there are two altars side by side, one for the Catholic priest, the other for the Episcopal missioner, eith- CT being covered to conceal it from view when 1t is not in use.

dral for such work. of the activities. already remarkable in many ways, of the city's existing similar enterprises. In conjunction with such organizations as the New York Protestant Episcopal City Mission Society. of which Bishop Potter is president--a society whose scope and efficiency are quite the most remarkable, in their way, in this coun- try-the cathedral will contribute new forces to the intending war of the churches in behalf of the unfortunate and neglected of the municipality.
 The Mission Society alone already maintains six chapels and several houses of refuge and industry, and has a representative in each of the city hospitals and prisons and in the alms- house and the state reform school. Its earliest venture was the chapel of the name of Pro-Cathedral. where Bishop Potter once lived and 1abored. This was, in fact. the first Episcopal church to engage in aggressive missionary work in the slums. It Is a church set clement in probably the most crowded district in the world. Services are held here from daylight until almost nightfall every Sunday, that everyone may have a chance to worship during the day: there are weekday services, too: there are clubs Of every kind, for young and old, gymnasiums. baths. day nurseries, clothing bureaus, dispensa- ries, libraries, and a volunteer choir of men and boys: and there is country house for summer outings.

 Though the completion of the mas sive structure about which the cathe- dpaI organization will centre is a gen. eration away, a beginning has been made already toward taking up mis- sionary and settlement work. Of the seven canon missioners in whose charge this side of the work of St. John the Divine will be, five have been appointed. Together the seven will constitute board which, beyond its direction of the catnedraPs mission ary activities, will also have advisory mower in connection with similar work of all the various parishes of the dio- cese. Indeed, the office of canon mis- sioner, which has been created for carrying out this far-reaching plan, will be a recognition of the usefulness each occupant has achieved from asso- citation with his special interests. and will serve as binding tie between the diocesan head and the outside field.
 Of the cathedral structure only a few lofty columns and impressive arches yet snow IneInselNeS dpoNS tho heights of Morningside. But its mis- sion work is even now under way, in one branch. at least, and has met with great success. Last summer the park lands surrounding the cathedral were thrown open for Sunday afternoon ex- cursions of children and their parents from the tenements on the east side of down town New York. Hundreds of men, and women. and little ones fiocked to the beautiful cliff overlooking the Hudson, many of them, to whom even the car ride would have been an un- justifiable extravaganza. as guests of the generous friend of Bishop Potter. No restrictions were put upon the holi- day-makers. for such they were; nor was attendance at devotional service compulsory. But in tho late afternoon. from the stone steps of the famous old house where formerly the little or phaned proteges of the Leake and Watts Asylum were cared for, short address was made. and a prayer said, and hymns were sung.
 There is an indication in this first step in its mission work of what the Cathedral of St. John the Divine pur- poses shall be the spirit of the great undertakings in mind for the future. Indeed, thcre is simply to be an expan- sion, on the broader basis afforded by the greater prestige and ampler funds that no doubt will come to the cathe-

special cable message from London to The Chicago Record-Heraid says
 The specter of revolution stalked through the streets of London town today Starving. pinched-faced women--thousands of them hundreds with puny, haif-clothed infants in their arms paraded in stumbling columns to the office of the oical government board to lay the distress and grievances of the capitals poor before the Premier of the British Nation,
 They were the wives and other relations or the army of unemployed--an army that has starved because there is no work for its hands to the point of actual menace to the SoVernment. They came in enormous crowds where the unfortunate masses of the population have their abode, determined that Premier Balfour should hear from their lips and judge as they passed in re- view of the terrible conditions that exist.
 For the first time under any such cir eumstances in the streets of London the "Marseiliaise" was heard above the chaotic tramp of thousands of human feet as the procession advanced. Later in the day, at monster mass-meeting. Russia reign of terror was pointed to as foreboding the sit-- uation that might confront England is the demands of the people be not needed The name of Balfour was hissed.
 Out of the ranks of the shiyerins wives and daughters who had lost all timorousness in the face of starvation, bold women told Premier Balfour that unless something was done speedily there would be bIoodshed.
 Don't forget that hungry men are des- perate men," exclaimed one of the speakers and the rest had only one story to teif-- expressed as eloquently by physical appear anee as by word os mouth--of husbands out of work and starving wives and children
 deputation of thirty women, specially selected to present the tattered petition-ou- foot to the Premier. headed the procession. and this deputation was admitted to inc presence of Mir. BaIfour in the local govern ment office.
 Give our men work" was the plea of the leaders If the owners of factories have no work 10 offer England must establish factories for its starving popuiation."s
 Premier Balfour gave earnest attention to all that was said and was most sympathet- ic In addressing the deputation But. while acknowledging that the evil was very real. he had little to suggest In t:-e way of ale viation except an expression of hope that charity would come to the aid of the unem- ployed.
 In conclusion the Premier said he depre- eated the socialistic suggestion that indus tries should be started for the benefit of the unemployed. as calculated to destroy the
