| must be approved by both houses tc
become operative. Prayerbook and
constitutional changes must be ap-
proved by both houses of two sue
cessive triennial conventions to be-
come effective.
Important Constitutional Proposal.
One important constitutional change
win come before the general conven-
tion, but il approved it cannot be-
come effective unless it also is rati-
fed by the general convention OF 1919
The proposed amendment authorizes
the creation of dioceses OF negro
churches and removes the negro
parishes from the supervision OF the
present diocesan bishops: This pro
posal first was suggested by the south-
western province. comprising lhe
dioceses in Missouri. Arkansas, Kansas:
Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico Ii
the amendment is adopted negro olsh-
OPS will be chosen to PRESIDE over
negro dioceses. The constitution at
present permits the election OF negro
suffragan bishops in the various dlo-
ceses, but none such has been CHOSEN.
One paramount question IN church
law will come before the general con-
vention-that of divorce me es'nui' ~ =
at present permits a clergyman OF the
Episcopal church to perform the mar
riape ceremony in the case of the IN
nocent party to a divorce granted on
statutory grounds, provided the case
first has been submitted to ana tns
marriage authorized by the blshop OF
the diocese. ;,, h,
The proposed canon, which VIII pc
come effective if it is approved by
the general convention TINS year, pro
hibits a clergyman from performing
the marriage ceremony for any d.
Vorced person, regardless of the
eround on which the divorce was
obtained.
Changes in Prayer Book Proposed.
MANY changes in the prayer book
will be considered. but they cannot
become effective unless they are ap-
nroved by both the 1916 and 1919 gen
ora, conventions Among the suggest
ed changes are the shortening OF the
Ten Commandments, as read IN the
communion services; the elimination
of the word obey and "endoW Win
worldly goods in the marriage cere-
mony: and the elimination OF speclnG
nra yers for the Jews and Turks-the
nrayer book at present contains a
nraver for Jews and Turks in connec-
ton with infidels. and 1t is urged tnat
it is disrespectfm toward the JeW1sii
race to class them with lhhde1s' ana
inaccurate to use the word turks,
other subjects that probably will
come before the convention will be
the designation of the presiding bishop
by election, instead of by seniority as
a present and the direct control OF the
hoard of missions by the general con-
vention.
In connection with the meeting of the
general convention will be held the
national meetings of the daughters OF
the King. a young woman's society,
and the national assembly ot che
Woman's Guild. which has local
branches in practically every parish
in this country.
During the convention the house of
bishops will choose two missionary
bishops-one for South Dakota and one
for western Nebraska.
On the night of October IS pageant
illustrating the history OF the church
will be given by the parish churches
of St Louis More than 1000 persons

SOME PROMISING
COPPER PROSPECTS

The discovery OF some unusually
promising copper prospects within a
few miles of Canon City have been
reported within the last few days and
considerable interest is being taken
in them by mining men. The vein
from which the ore has been taken is
said to be a large one and geological
ly well located; being between granite
and schist stratums. The vein is close
TO town and can be easily mined IL il
proves TO be as valuable as it's discov-
erers are inclined to believe it is. The
ore thus far taken out assays eighteen
dollars TO the ton in copper and a like
amount in lead. Several sacks of ore
have been taken out and all who have
seen it pronounce IL to be an excep-
tionally fine sample. The vein will be
thoroughly prospected. and. II found
to be anything like as good as 1t is re-
ported TO be. mining operations will
be begun.
