AMERICAN EPISCOPAL CHURCH


At the morning service at st. Mi
chael's cathedral at Boise last Sunday,
says the Statesman of that place, Dean
Kinks gave an interesting description
OF the Episcopal church in America
from its beginning in 1907 when Rev.
Robert Hunt celebrated the first COM
munion service at jamestown on down
to the present day.
To-day is the anniversary of that
service" he said. land that reverential
beginning in old Virginia had much to
do with the solid foundation Of Chris
tianity in this new world.
when Lord Delaware arrived in
1910 there was just one little Episco-
pal church in the land, just a modest
little structure that was decorated
with the wild flowers of the country
and where today stands an old tow
er which marked subsequent build
ing.
Three hundred years have rolled
away and there are now in the United
States 101 bishops of the Protestant
Episcopal church, SO dioceses, 10 for
eign and 10 domestic missionary jur-
isdictions There are 1851 parishes,
| 5249 clergymen and nearly a million
communicates with a half million
children in the ranks of the Sunday
schools. The first bishop was conse-
Grated in England, he being DR..
Samuel Seabury of New York, and the
first general convention met in Phil
adelphia in 1885. but the real growth
of the church did not begin until
about the year 1920, when theologi-
cal schools were founded and a gen.
eral missionary society organized.
"The general convention of the
Episcopal church convenes in the city
of Richmond, Va, in October of this
year, and the body will make a pill
grimage to jamestown and hold SER
vice on the historic spot of the first
place of worship"
The dean then called the attention
especially of the men of the congrega-
ton to the fact that 1t Is the purpose
of the whole church to make splen-

men of the Episcopal church in the

AIRsH1P UNDER CONTROL.
Designed for Use in War-Has Trial
at Hammondsport.

BUFFALO,, June 2S-Capt. Thomas S.
Baldwin,, who operated a balloon used by
the United States Army in the war with
SPAIN has succeeded, after five years ex-
detrimental work, in perfecting an airship
over which he has full control, and which
army officers say will be of great value as
an auxiliary to ground forces on the field.
The balloon had a trial at Hammonds-
port Wednesday in the presence of several
thousand persons including Maj. Chandler,
chief of the United States Army Signal
Corps: Maj. George Owen Squier, Fort
Leavenworth Prof. Pickering, Harvard
University, and DR.. Julien P. Thomas, Aero
Club New York city.
The airship rose steadily to a height of
several hundred feet and moved eastward
to the hills Then it steered back
until it stood motionless over the village.
Baldwin allowed the machine to drop al
most upon the housetops, and then it
quickly shot upward to a great altitude.

before his death. In 1902 he organized the
w. A. Costen Chemical Company, of which
corporation he was secretary, treasurer and

BIG MERGER PLANNED
GREAT BRITAIN TRADE INTER
ESTS MAY COMBINE.

LONDON June 2S.-A great combination
of iron>a steel manufacturers, similar to
those existing in the United States and
Germany is in course of formation in Great
Britain, with the avowed object of COM
batting American and German competition,
which is increasing year by year. Nine big
companies, headed by Vickers' Sons &
Maxim, and including John Brown & Co.,
which recently amalgamated with the
Harland & Wolff Company, have absorbed
thirty-siX previously independent concerns
which will give them control, it is estimated,
of about so per cent of the steel product in
Great Britain.
The details of the combination have not
yet been worked out, but it probably will
be based on the principle of the German
trust, involving the regulation of price ad-
justment of the output to the demand and
equal distribution of orders.
What is primarily aimed at 1t is asserted,
is combination strong enough not only to
control the trade of Great Britain but to
dominate the steel trade of the world"
The London representatives of the Ameri-
can companies, however, do not anticipate
any material cut in their orders as a result
of the movement.
The satisfactory progress with which the
negotiations proceeding is largely due
to Vickers Sons & Maxim who succeeded
in bringing together several firms hereto
fore their keenest competitors.
There is much surprise in trade circles
that John Brown & Co., after amalgamat-
ing with Harland, Wolff & Co.. should go
into a combination headed by the Vickers
concern, who are the Harlands' greatest
competitors.
The other firms included in the combina-
ton are CANNED Laird & Co, the North
eastern Steel Company, the Weardale Steel
and Coal Company, the Dorman and Long
Company, Guest Keen 4 Nettlefolds, the
Baldwin Company and Stewart, Lloyd &
Co.
The combined capital of the firms is over
$3.50 100000.
1t is pointed out that it is extremely diff
ficult to complete such a combination in
England as it rs necessary to make public
all deals with reference to them to the
shareholders of the various companies.

A ROMANCE OF THE LAW
Miss Mccormack Becomes Wife Of
Lawyer Who Won Her Case.

MERIDEN, Conn, June 2s-The wedding
yesterday of Mr.. Patrick l.. O'Brien, a
leading lawyer of this city and formerly a
professor in Epiphany College Baltimore
brings to light pretty romance of the
court room The ceremony was performed
by Rev. John L. Lynch in ST. Joseph's
Catholic Church. and yesterday afternoon
the couple left for New York, whence they
will sail on Saturday for European tour
The bride is the daughter of the late John
II. Mccormack. manufacturer. and she
inherited his wealth. Her acquaintance
with Mr.. O'Brien began when Mary c.
Butler. an old and faithful servant in the
Mccormack household. made a deathbed
gift of her savings of several thousand dol
lars to Miss Mccormack, and sisters of the
dead woman appealed to the courts to re-
woke the gift. Mr.. o Brien finally won the
case for Miss Mccormack in the state SUI
preme court. but that he had also won his
fair client was not generally known.

The sense1ess man was being roasted

The police were the first to respond to
the frantic cries of alarm from the crowd
but they were powerless. A moment later
the firemen arrived and two ran up an

With them they carried life line at one
end of which was a big loop. This was
thrown over the senseless form and quickly
Rischow was lifted clear of the terrible
wires Then hand over hand the two dar-

waited below. He was rushed to Christs
Hospital. where the surgeons found that
the feed wires had burned through his
clothing and cooked the flesh across the
abdomen, while the upper part of the
chest and arm also were frightfully
scorched. 1t is thought he cannot recover.
