BISHOP KENDRIcK.
The Eminent Divine Passes from Earth.
 Luminous Career.

California, on the preceding day, of Rt. Reverend J. Mills Kendrick, missionary bishop of the diocese of New Mexico, which included until recently the territory of Ari- sOna.
 Bishop Kendrick had been in feeble health some months, and his death was not unexpected. It closed a long and eventful career, the past twenty years Of which were devoted to the missionary work in the extensive diocese he administered, embracing Arizona, New Mexico, and all that part of Texas west of the Pecos river. He was nearly seventy-fve years of age. Surviv ing him are his widow and a daughter, Mrs. Howe Williams of Phoenix.
 Deceased was a native of Ohio, born at Gambler, son of we'll known educator, connected with Marietta college, from which insti- tuition the son graduated, taking up the study of law and being ad- mitted to practice, which he aband- oned shortly to take up the study of theology, at the Gambler theo logical institute. His studies there were interrupted by the Civil War, in which he enlisted in an Ohio regiment reaching the rank of Cap tain and serving a part of the time as a staff officer in the military family of General Nelson.
 With the close of the war Captain Kendrick returned to his studies, and was shortly ordained deacon in the Protestant Episcopal church. He filled charges in Kansas, and later he returned to Ohio, where he was assistant to the rector of Trinity church in Columbus, and afterward he was rector of impor- tant churches in the southern part of that state. The following tribute to the worth and ability of the deceased prelate is by Rt. Rever- end J. w. Atwood, bishop of the diocese of Arizona, which within the year has been segregated from the diocese of Bishop Kendrick:
 His whole life, work and spirit had fitted him for one of the most difficult and apparently hopeless of the missionary fields of the church that of Arizona and New Mexico, to which was later added a part of Texas-by far the largest mission ary jurisdiction in the United States. The bishop sometimes said with characteristic modesty that the house of bishops would never have elected him bishop if there had been anyone else to go out into that country,
 He was consecrated at Trinity church, Columbus, O., on January IS, 1889, and immediately went out to his new field, where he found only one or two clergymen, and in Arizona only one church building.
 Bishop Kendrick was relieved of the charge of the missionary district of Arizona by the general convention which met at Cincin- natl in October, 1910. He retained charge of the missionaiy district of New Mexico, Bishop Atwood being chosen his successor as bishop of Arizona. He established his official residence-in El Psso, while retain ing his family residence ih'Rh9nix,

settled national flower question, and upholds the mountain laurel
for the floral emblem of our country.
With both of these interesting and wel-mcant propositions the
fundamental trouble is that calling a thing something does not make
it %. But a lot of argument, backed by solid reasons, is always re-
quired before we get down to the fundamental, so let's give the "nays'
q hearing on the two questions raised.
Evidently american" language is not all that is required for
the making of a great American opera, else a triumph would have
greeted "Pom," the Indian war-whoop piece by Mcssrs. Hartley and
Nsvn, Of this city, which was "roasted" in Berlin last season. How
ever, Victor Herbert is going to try out nearer home another work in
the same vein, entitled "Natoma," which still may convince some.
But if our esteemed correspondents theory we're put in prac-
tie, and only american" language spoken in the United States, then
Spanish would have to be "South American" and the subjects of
porfrio Daz couldn't understand anything but "Mexican" The
English language would suddenly die out all over the world, to be
replaced by "Cockney," yorkshire" Scotch" "Irsh," "Welsh,"
"Australasian" and Canadian"
