House of Bishops
to Fill Vacancies
at Special Meeting
May Be Held in Minneapolis.
Jersey and Newark Con-
ventions Scheduled.

A special meeting of the House of
Bishops of the Protestant Episcopal
Church will, it is probable, be called
to convene in Minneapolis in October
to elect three new missionary bishops.
Two other important elections to the
episcopate are pending, these being in
the diocese of New Jersey and Ore
gon. These last will, however, be con-
Quoted by the local convention in
each diocese.
The purpose of the anticipated spe-
cial session of the House of Bishops Is
to elect three new missionary do
cesans. These are for Cuba, Spokane
and Nevada, respectively. Because
of destinations the house had barely
adjourned in New York last October,
where it sat as part of the general
convention of the church, before the
episcopacies of Cuba and Spokane
were vacant, while a vacancy oc-
CURED in Nevada owing to the death
of Bishop Henry Douglas Robinson
of that district
Special sessions of the Episcopal
bishops have been held in Cincinnati
and one or two other cities of the
Middle West, and the general con-
vention has met in Minneapolis. but
this is said to be the first time a
Minnesota city has been selected for
a special sitting.
During the last general convention
efforts were. put forth to change the
law of the church to admit of provin-
cial synods electing missionary bish-
ops in order to avoid the great ex-
pense of calling the entire house to-
gether. This move failed, along with
several others, owing to an alleged
disagreement between the House of
Bishops and the House of Deputies.
In the approaching convention of
the diocese of New Jersey an effort
will be made to elect successor to
late Right Rev. John Scarborough.
The election in the diocese of Ore
gon will be to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Right Rev. Charles
Scadding.
At other diocesan conventions, spe-
cial and regular. suffragan bishops
will be selected as assistants to the
diocesans Among these is that in
the diocese of Newark, which meet
ing will be held early next fall to
provide assistance for Bishop Edwin
s. Lines.

The story Of puoIshurs,.

great many people hold the opin-
ion that of all the writer's who have
from one time to another pictured
the South in fiction none have done
1t with the degree of success of
Charles Egbert Craddock, who, as her
admirers know, is really Miss Mary
Murfree. The publication, therefore,
of "The Story of Duclehurst," a tale of
Mississippi in the days Immediately
following the Civil War, will be well
coined by these in confident anticipa-
ton of the pleasures which the read
ing is sure to give. To those who do
not know Miss Murfree's work, who
are not familiar with THE Amulet" or
THE Storm Centre" or 1.-THE Story of
Old Fort Loudon," and who look upon
every untried author skeptically, 1.-The
Story of Duclehurst" will afford no
less satisfaction. Adventure and ro-
nance and mystery and the unex-
pected all have a part in it and they
are handled with the skill of one who
knows her profession.
Miss Murfree's plots are always in
genious but logical, her climaxes dra-
matte but not overstrained; her
books, in consequence, appeal to those
who appreciate rousing action and an
unbroken thread of interest, but who
insist at the same time that the work.
manship be of the highest type.
THE Story of Duclehurst" keeps the
reader in doubt to the very end. 1t is
centred around a Confederate soldier
who loses his memory, and as he is
possessed of valuable facts, this loss
complexities not only his own life but
involves that of others. Out of these
attending consequences, which reach
an original climax and ultimately
happy conclusion, Miss Murfree has
made thoroughly satisfying story,
the high spirits of which particularly
commend it for summer reading

Bismarok and the Austrian Alliance.

1t is interesting at the present mo-
ment to note what Bismarck in mis-
Autobiography English transla-
tion of which Is published by the
Harper s-has to say about the Aus
efian alliance he brought about. THE
treaty which we concluded with Aus
tria for common defense against a
Russian attack is publici juris. An
analogous treaty between the two
powers for defense against France
has not been published. The Ger
man Austrian alliance does not af-
ford the same protection against a
French war by which Germany is
primarily threatened, as against a
Russian war, which is to be appre-
hended rather by Austria than by
Germany. Germany and Russia have
no Emergencies of interest pregnant
with such disputes as lead to un-
avoidable ruptures. On the other
hand, coincident aims in regard 70
Poland, and in secondary degree
the ancient solidarity which unites
their destinies in opposition to sub
versive efforts, afford both cabinets
the bases for a common policy. They
have been impaired by the false bias
given now for ten years past to pub
lie opinion by the Russian press. This
has assiduously planted and fostered
In the mind of the reading part of the
population an antipathy to every
thing German, with which the dynas
ty will have to reckon, even though
the Car may wish to cultivate Ger
man friendship.
