BISHOP HOSS GIVES
 VIEWS ON TOBACCO.
No Gentleman Will Use 1t in Houses
 Where 1t Is Offensive.

St Louis, Mo, Sept. 14-Bishop B. E. Hoss of the Methodist Episcopal church, south, yesterday sent a letter to the Rev. c. H Hawkins, presiding elder of the St. Louis district of the church. in which he explains his views on the use of tobacco. The latter was brought forth by published excerpts from an address by the bishop at the Missouri conference of the church last week, in which he was quoted as say ing that no minister who was gen. tleman would use tobacco.
 The letter to MT. Hawkins says in part;
 T did not bring up the subject of tobacco myself, but it came before the conference in a memorial to the ap- preaching general conference asking 1t to make the non-use of tobacco q con- dition of entrance into our ministry
 Personally, I am not in favor Of such legislation, and I took occasion to say: 'To make the use of tobacco sin is to grade down the general conception of sin until people lose sight of it's cuormity. Smoking a cigar is d. question of expedieDcy. Ministers are very frequently enter tained in houses where tobaco is of fensive. and under such circumstances no gentleman will use it.

 cause of His Poor English.

Wester- mann, pastor of the Church of the In- maculate Conception, where he was received at the request of the late Bishop William McCloskey of the dio- cese of Louisville.
 Father Schmidt had applied to Bishop McCloskey for an appointment but was refused on the ground that he could not speak English fluentIy and his visit in the home of the Rev. Westermann was intended to expe- dite his acquisition of English.
 According to the Rev. Westerrnann, his visitor kept his counsel and his own company, having little to do with others in the house, or so far as he knew, with outsiders
 He personally cared for his own room, declining to admit a servant, He held the degree of doctor of phil osophy from the University of AInnich and spent much of his time in the study Of suiance.
