Tho forty-eighth nnnual convention of tho
i Iowa diocese of the Kplncopnl church opened
tut St. Paul's church yesterday morning,
, with BlBhop Morrison nnd twenty-eight
clergymen and fifty lay delegates In attend
ance. Prior to the convention being called
' to order, communion servlco was held, tho
bishop, assisted by Uov, 0. H. Cornell, I). D..
of Sioux City and Itev. O. K. Walk, tho
rector of St. Paul's, officiating. Rov. Fred-
erlck W. Kcntor, D. D., of Dubuque do-1
llvcred tho address.
Following tho service, Bishop Morrison
called tho convention to order and after 1
naming Hov. F. T. Bowen of Spencer, W. H.
Jnffray of Des Moines and O. W. Blssoll of
Ames as a commltteo on credentials to re
port at the afternoon session, an adjourn
ment was tnken to Royal Arcanum hall,
where lunch was served by the women of
Oraco and St. Paul's churches.
Illnlmp Morrison's Adilrrs.
Bishop Morrison delivered his annual ad
dress on tho convention reassembling nt
2:30 o'clock. In opening ho Bpoko of the
necessity of organization In tho church,
"(lod's kingdom In tlmo." Business, routlno
and order, he snld, aro essentially holy anil
no dloceso can be prosperous, no parish can
grow, unless care Is given to organization,
records aro kept, money rnlsod and debts
paid. Ho urged priests to tako an Interest
In the dloceso and to lend their parishioners
to tako an Interest In all outsldo work. Tho
cry that there Is no money Is misleading.
People havo money for everything In which
they are deeply Interested. Tho way to get
tho money Is to get them moro Interested
In the work of tho church. Bishop Mor
rison protested against ,tho Idea that tho
enre of spiritual affairs should rest with the
priest nnd that tho laity should manage
tho business matters. He declared this
Idea had dono much harm nnd had resulted
In a separation of tho spiritual nnd tem
poral Interests of the church.
"How can tho church grow when the
priest and tho vestry arc dividing the work
which Is ono?" ho asked. "The fault, I
tako It, Is with us, tho priests; wo havo
separated tho two spheres, business ami
spiritual care; tho laity havo learned tho
lesson too well; our Sunday schools arc
without mon and there Is not put Into tho
church's business tho spirit of consecration
which should exist. Against It all I again
protest. Alt life Is holy business, labor
and wages, buying and selling, organizing
nnd administering all arc God's calling for
men, nnd not less holy, but moro so, when
they touch tho life of tho church."
Neurol for Denil of the Ynir.
In speaking of tho record of tho last year
Blshoo Morrison referred with eloquent
eulogy to tho deaths of Henry, Adams Noaly,
I). D., bishop of Maine; Mahlon N. uiiueri,
D. Vi, coadjutor bishop of .Minnesota, ana
to tho deaths ot two priests or tne lowa
diocese, Rev. Levi I. Jenner and llev. Jo
seph I. Corbyn, until lately rector or ht.
Mark's church, Anamosa, and llvo promi
nent laymen of tho diocese, among whom
was the Into D. C. Bloomer of this city. In
speaking of tho deaths of these men the
bihhop said:
These mon leave many mournings, ineir
going means so much to the several parishes
to which they belonged, as well as to tne
diocese. It means much to a parish to have
In It a thoroughly reliable, Intelligent Chris
tian man, a man who stands In tho com
munity for all that makes men strong nnd
admirable. It means much to hnvo the selt-
sacriflcing effort anil liberal support of such
a man.
Tho bishop then gave the following sta
tistics regarding his work of the last year:
Number ot visitations since tho last con
vention, 112; number continued, 687; whole
number confirmed slnco tho bishop's con
secration, 1.011; nine clergymen havo been
received Into the diocese; four others are at
work, whose letters of transfer havo not yet
been received; two havo been advanced to
tho priesthood; two priests hnvo died, five
dismissed to other dioceses, leaving a net
gain of eight; the present list numbers sixty-
two, of whom forty-four aro actively nt
wcrk: there aro thrco postulants for holy
orders and flvo candidates for the holy min
istry; flfty-clght lay readers have been
licensed, three cornerstones laid, one church
consecrated; two churches havo been built
nt Harlan and Amos; the offerings for mis
sions reported by tho treasurer to date
amount to $5,737. the largest offering In
any one year In tho history of tho diocese.
Ailvlxrn Sole of Crlxciold ('(illeuc
Referring to tho church Institutions of the
diocese, tho bishop said St. Catherine's hall
at Davenport had enjoyed a prosperouH year.
Of Orlswold college his report was different.
Orlswnld Is In nil Its departments de
funct. It would be foolish to attempt to
resurrect It. The money Is not to be had.
I advise the sain of the block of land upon
which tho college buildings stand. Tho
nrlco agreed uiton between the Board of
kdiieatlnn of the city of Davenport nnd
tho executive committee of the board of
trustees is $53,000. Till Is a good price
for the land, equitable both to purchaser
and seller. Tho buildings aro practically
of no valuo except for the purposes for
which they wero erected. Tho history of
tho property Is this: Bishop Ioe In ls,f,6
paid $36,009 for tho two blocks, Including
Wolf hall, which wns already built, and
had been used for edui tUiotinl Miniocs.
Kemper hall was built nt a mat of $;i.'i,(i00.
Wo will have the block of lauil on which
tho cathedral stands free of all incum
branco this part of tho original purchaso
is now worth $60,000. The aotual eont of
tho block on which Wolf hall stands was
$1S.OOO. This, added to tho JS.ftrt put Into
Ketuer hall, makes $03 000. So wo will get
out of tho block tho money actually put Into
It. losing, nf course, tho Interest. I would
ndvlso the convention to authorize the sale
of tho property -for $.3,C0 and direct the
trustees of (irlswold college to convey to
the blshon of low.i and his successors tn
olllce so much of the block upon which
tho cathedral staipls us villi rsmalns In
tho possession of "tho trustees ,In trust
for tho uses and purposes of the cathedral.
I would also Riisccst that the trustees ot
Orlswold rollege, having paid thmludebted
nuss ot $19.lXi0 resting upon St. Kntherlne's
hall, bo instructed to turn over the balnnco
of tho purchase mnuey to the trustees of
funds and donations, to be Invested by
them, nnd interest to be paid seml-aiiuunlly
for tho purpo'e of repairing nnd enlarging
St. Knthcrino's hall.
In conclusion tho bishop commended tho
work of the womon's auxiliary nnd urged
that much bo mndo of tho work of tho Sun
day schools,
Tho portlona of the blshop' address re
ferring to tho Increase of diocesan missions
nnd tho Halo of tho Orlswold college prop

the Audience.
DES MOINES. May 22.-(SpecIal Tele
gram.) Tom Smith of Harlan, tho Unvyor,
Immortalized IiIb namo by a spontaneous
burst of oratory In defense of men beforo
3,000 women of tho National Congress of
Mothers at Its second day's seislon here
this afternoon. Smith' speech was the
climax of ono of tho most dramatic scenes
over witnessed In Dec, Mollies. Oscar Chris
man, professor of pnldology, or child ntudy,
In tho Stato Normal school at Emporia. Kau.,
brought on the storm and when It was over
he left the convention hall In disfavor with
one of tho greatest organizations of women
In tho country.
"Men never love," declared Prof. Chrls
man. "What Is called lovo In men Is eimply
physical passion."
In nn Instant tho great auditorium was
filled with hisses. Cries of "no, no," wero
heard nbovo the hlmlng. When n compara
tive qtllot was restored tho speaker went
on: "In ages past femininity meant weak
ness, but today It meana strength. Woman
alone, I say, loves. Man reasons. Woman
Is mado to love and man to reaFon. You
should tench your daughters to prepare for
wifehood and motherhood nnd .for their
life of love. Why do you fix up your girls
In flno clothes and send Micm to parties?
For no other renson In tho world than to
mako them mnrrlageable."
lint Denial llnrleil nt Him.
Again tho house won swept by a wavo of
murmuring disapproval and the doso of
hisses was repeated. Half n dozen women
sprang to their feet to speak, but Mrs.
Birney, tho president, announced that Mrs.
Wlnfleld S. Hall of Uerwyn. III., had pre
pared a paper for tho opening of the d In
clusion, and Mrs. Hall took tho platform.
Sho combated tho assertions with force.
"Mon do lovo," sho cried, In a voice that
penetrated every corner. "Prof. Chrlsmnn's
position Is wrong, radically wrong. I know
that tho women In this building, nnd tho
members of the Congress of Mothers will
bear mo .out In my denlnl of tho truth of
Dr. Chrlsmon's declarations."
In tho midst of tho hnndclapplng that
followed Mrs. Hall's speech tho volco ot a
man was hoard in the room.
"I resent tho statement of tho gentleman
tfom Kansas that there In no love In man.
Wo all know that Is not truo. Tho Idea that
man's feeling for woman Is limited to sexual
passion. It Is false. I sny that It Is a
uhamo for this man to como before a body
of women llko this, or before any tody nny-
whore, and mako such statements. It Is
a shame. I resent it in licuair or men, and
don't caro whether tho man who makes
tho statement comes from the east or tho
south or from Kanfas. It Is not tho truth,
whoever says It."
.Smltli'n Slnlemenln I'.mlorseil.
Tho members of the Congress of Mothers
fairly shouted their delight with this speech.
Tho applause Insted oovcral minutes. Soon
a beaming woman In a box Just above tho
speaker leaned, ovor and poked him with
her fan nnd whispered: "What's your
name?"
Tho question wns taken up all 'over tho
"house.
"Smith Is my name. Just Smith."
"But really, sir, we are not Joking. We
want your namo. Wo want it to go on tho
records. Please tell us your" real namo."
said Mrs. Blrnoy from the platform, as she
rapped for order.
"That Is my name. I'm not fooling. I'm
Smith, Tom Smith, Thomns H, Smith of
Harlan, la."
Most of tho lay was given up to tho
report of tho president. Mrs. Birney, her
cabinet officers and tho committees. Tho
reports show that tho organization Is enjoy
ing a steady nnd healthful growth. This
evening Governor and Mrs. Shaw entertained
tho delcgntes at a reception In the state
house and later the Woman's club enter
tained them nt another reception, both
events being very brilliant.
