THE EPISCOPAL TRIENNIAL. Presentation of a Memorial in Honor of the Late Vice-President Hendricks. The Work Among the Colored People of the South—An Interesting Debate on the Proposed Million-Dollar Mission Fund. Chicago, Oct. 11.—The House of Deputies of the Protestant Episcopal Church resumed its sitting this morning at Central Music Hall. The galleries were crowded with ladies and gentlemen. Prayer was read by the Rev. Dr. Barbee, of Easton, Pa., and the benediction was pronounced by Bishop Brewer, of Minnesota. President Dix announced the names of clerical and lay delegates to serve on the joint committee on the judicial system, as follows. Revs. Dr. Hodges, of Maryland: Stringfellow, of Alabama; Thrall, of Springfieid; Hoffman, of New York, Vault, of Arkansas, and Messrs. Burgwin, of Pittsburg; Woolworih, of Nebraska; Patterson, of Pennsylvania; Bennett, of Massachusetts, and Miller, of Georgia. Rev. Dr. Jenckes, of Indiana, presented a memorial to the memory of ex-Viee-president Thos. A. Hendricks, and supplemented the presentation of the memorial with a brief euloey of the life of the deceased and his labors iu the Episcopal Church. Memorials in reference to the proposed changes in the Piayer-book wei* presented by delegates from the dioceses of Texas, Tennessee,. West Virginia, Nebraska, Fond du Lac, Wis., Western Michigan and Virginia, all of which were appropriately referred. The president called to the attention of the House the fact that it had failed to act upon the suggestion of the House of Bishops, that the committees of both bouses should meet in joint session whenever the chairman of each committee should deem it expedient for the facilitation of bnsiness. The proposition had been combated by Rev. Dr. Hopkins, of Central Pennsylvania, on the ground that it destroyed the independence of action of the H->nse of Deputies. Mr. McGuffv, of Southern Ohio, said he did not think the House of Bishops had any intention of infringing the liberties of the House of Deputies. It wag a move in the interest of the speedy transaction of business. Mr. H. Coppee, of Central Pennsylvania, and Mr. Bavcirn, of Pittsburg, held to the same view. Dr. Hopkins replied iu strong opposition to the creation of a “third house.” It destroyed the independence of the lower house. The House of Deputies should perform its functions independently, or we should not maintain two separato houses. Before any vote could be taken, the House of Deputies adjourned, and resolved itself into a hoard of missions, having been joined by the House of Bishops. Bishop Lee occupied the chair. Bishop Dudley, of Kentucky, made an address respecting the work amone the colored people. He said he had worked among these people, and he understood that it bristled with difficulties: yet he could not feel that the church had djne its full duty in the past. He believed in a catholic church in which there was no color line. He spoke very eloquently on the need of bringing the colored people into the church, or else the imputation, sometimes made, that it was a church of caste, might prove true. He did not desire the appointment of a special bishop for this work, but broad and general missionary work. The need of schools was very pressing, and this aid would have to come very lareely from the North. H paid a glowing tribute to Rev. Mr. Perry, of Baltimore, for his persistent labors in this direction, despite the social ostracism and neglect he met with when he first entered upon this branch of work. Bishop Peterkin, of West Virginia, spoke of the work among the weak domestic missions of the church. He spoke at length, showing that while the needs of the chnrch were pressing in newly settled portions of the South and among the colored people of the Soutn, still, while not disparaging this work, yet the great field for work by the missionaries of the church was among the poor and needy of the thickly settled districts. He spoke of the saloons and places of amuement open in Chicago on Sunday and the large number of poor missions in this city as a citation of the labor pressing upon the chnrch. At 12 o’clock the delegation from the Provincial Synod of Canada has announced, and were received by the joint houses, standing. Bishop Lee greeted the representatives of the Canadian clergv, and was followed by Rev. Mr. Dix in a similar address.
Lord Bishop Binney, Bishop of Nova Scotia, responded, and explained that he was present as the special representative of the Anglican Church in Canada, as coming from the diocese where, one hundred years ago, was established the first colonial church in Canada. He spoke of the growth of the church in Canada, and dwelt at some length upon the early history of the church in both the United States and Canada. He spoke of the fact that the Canadian branch of the chnrch had followed the lead of the church in the United States in many ways, and notably in admitting the laity to the councils of the House of Deputies, and it was noted that the mother church in England was slowly endeavoring to follow her offspring. Upon the conclusion of the address, the session adjourned till 2 p. M. Bishop Doane, of Albany, opened the afternoon session of the board with an address on the work of the Woman’s Auxiliary. A large audience was piesent. The Bishop’s address was, in brief, a noble tribute to the services of the women of the chnrch through this efficient organization. The auxiliaries’ total gifts last year amounted to $234,000. A delegate from Texas offered a resolution that the board discuss the early and effective extension of work amone the colored people, and reoommended the convention to take canonical action for the creation of a missionary episcopacy. The resolution was made the special order, after two other subjects having prior consideration. By previous order, a most important matter was now introduced for discussion, evoking a spirited debate, in which the leading delegates to the convention shared It was the matter of the enrollment fund, a project planned at the timo of the last triennial by a lavman in the Pennsylvania diocese. to raise SI,OOO 000 for missionary purposes. The Rev. Dr. Harris, of that diocese, first presented the matter as to its origin, present condition, responsibility for its condition, and to advise future action. He explained that the plan had been proposed by a certain layman to gradually raise SI,OOO 000, between 1883 and 1886, through contributions by each church member of 5 cents a week, no person to give more than $5. Dr. Harris informed the convention that the money had not all been raised, and that being the case, it was, by the terms of the plan, impossible to bring any of tbe amount to the convention. The total so far pledged was $78,000. On behalf of the diocese of Pennsylvania, he relinquished all responsibility for the matter, except so far as tbe scheme affected his own diocese. It had become a matter for the whole church, and to the church this diocese now left it The question as to how the funds should be raised was brought up by a resolution offered by Mr. J. H. Stotzenbnrg. of Indiana, who moved the reference of the entire matter of mission enrollment fund to a joint committee of three from each order. This proposition raised questions of expediency and independence, to which ao animated debate gave a thorough airing. Bishop BeJell, of Ohio, testified to his thorough interest in the scheme, and believed it could be complied with if they would strike out the condition regarding tho amount to he raised. The Rev. Phillips Brooks, of Boston, then took the floor. The appearance of this brilliant churchmau caused a rustle of applause. He rose to advocate the scheme in its integrity and entirety. He declared he wanted the absolute condition preserved that not a dollar Rhould be used until the million had been raised us the basis of everything. In his ey re, the value of the principle of the scheme was the fact that it was laymen calling upon laymen. He liked it because it appealed to the multitude, and not to the rich laymen. After an unusually long discussion, the House was ready for the question, and successively and
rapidly adopted each of the following resolutions, which had been introduced daring the debate: Resolved, That she board has heard with entire satisfaction the statement of the deputies from the diocese of Pennsylvania, in regard to the missionary enrollment plan; the board hereby agrees that what has hitherto been done has been well done; and that the board bids the laymen who have it in hand to go forward ip the full conviction that their great object can and will be accomplished. Resolved. That the whole subject of the enrollment fund be referred, with power, to a committee oonsistr of Messrs. Fuller, Coffin, Brown, Crease, Thomas mid Buckley, cf the diocese of Pennsylvania, and such other* as they may add to their number. Resolved. That the lay deputies of each diocese shall be a special committee for that diocese, to be ra communication with the central committee, shall appoint their own treasurer, and prosecute the work to the end. Resolved, That, in the opinion of the Board of Missions, it is desirab e that this fund shall be collected upon the same conditions and by the same general methods as heretofore proposed. Without transacting any other business of importance, adjournment was taken until tojgjprow. What Stunned Him. Nashville American. They stood at the front gate as the closing scene of a long evening's engagement * The conversation had dwindled to base hits, and his intellect had grown limp framing excuses for hanging on. “Charley,” she began, as she dropped languidly over the gate, * can you tell me who will be Governor?’’ “Why, certainly,* he replied; “Taylor will.” Then they laughed a little ungrammatical ripple at Charley’s break. •‘But, Charley,” she continued, “I’m serious. Don't you think ’twould be too awfully bad for them to have two brothers going around speaking each other and saying all those horrid things?” Charley had not sifted the results of such an evil, but replied: “Yes, I confess ’twould look a little tough, bnt then, you see, they wouldn’t go into personalities, but discuss the issues before the people.” “What are the issues, Charley?” The line was too lone, but, with a death-rattle in his throat, he stammered: “Ob, yon know, the Blair bill, I suppose, and—ob—the tariff, and—” A great light kindled in her beauriful eyes, and, leaning close over the gate, she whispered in a soft, balcony sigh: “Charley, won’t you tell me all about the tariff?” That swept his decks. His information wasn’t built that way. In Memory of the Drummer.

The First Sign Os failing health, whether in the form of Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in a sense of General Weariness and Loss of Appetite, should suggest the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. This preparation is most effective for giving tone and strength to the enfeebled system, prothe digestion and assimilation of food, restoring the nervous forces to their normal condition, and for purifying, enriching, and vitalizing the blood. Failing Health. Ten years ago my health began to fail. I was troubled with a distressing Cough, Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervousness. I tried various remedies prescribed by different physicians, but became so weak that I could not go up stairs without stopping to rest. My friends recommended me to try Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, which I did, and lam now as healthy and strong as ever.—Mrs. E. L. Williams, Alexandria, Minn. I have used Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, in my family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly eradicate this terrible disease. I have also prescribed it as a tonic, as well as an alterative, and must say that I honestly believe it to be the best blood medicine ever compounded.—W. F. Fowler, M. D., D. D. S., Greenville, Tenn. Dyspepsia Cured. It would be impossible for me to describe wbat I suffered from Indigestion and Headache up to the time I began taking Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. I was under the care of various physicians, and tried a great many kinds of medicines, but never obtained more than temporary relief. After taking Ayer’s Sarsaparilla for a short time, my headache disappeared, and my stomach performed its duties more perfectly. To-day my health is completely restored. Mary Harley, Springfield, Mass. I have been greatly benefited by the prompt use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. It tones and invigorates the system, regulates the action of the digestive and assimilative organs, and vitalizes the blood. It is, without doubt, the most reliable blood purifier yet discovered. H.
