There are two bishops to be elected and the 612 votes which were cast on tba fourth ballot indicate the vote for one bishop only and in reality represent 1,024 votes. The apparent discrepancy of only 612 voice being announced caused some confusion when In the report of the ballot it was shown that over 1,000 ballots bad actually been cast.

Will iam Quayle of Kan*a* City wa* pre sented. It was long and a wide de parture from the usual formal report and called for some decided criticism. It was defended by Mr. Quayle, but after a long discussion wa* returned to the subcommittee for revision. The committee took up tne question that the term of probation l<e shortened, but decided in favor of retaining the present term of six months. A sub committee was instructed to prepare a ritual form to be usud in the admission of probationers to full membership. The committee on itineracy consid ered another measure calculated to lessen the authority of the bishops. It was that the consent of the cabinet of presiding elders should be secured before a bishop could transfer a min ister from one conference to another. The committee declined to recommend the change.

Ilnllew.of Htusrt, la., ha* been allowed a patent for a campaign badge lu the form of a bee adapted to be readily fastened to the lapped of a coat. On tjio wings urc fixed the portraits of candidates in such u manner that they are concealed when the wings are folded, but by pressing a detent the winga ere expanded and the portruIts and sen timents of the wearer flashed upon observers. To be the author of a machine that will give aid, comfort and delight to the present and coming generations may be a nobler triumph than to win a presidential race. It ia a hope, too, that many may realize. The ambition of the humble mechanic that looks for honor and fame by seek ing to give the world a benefaction in the shape of an invention, is far above the ‘‘infatuation" which ruins “pres idential candidates." The names of American inventors and public ben efactors will be revered when the names of some of our president* and would-be president* will be for* gotten. or only remembered with Indifference, regret or con* tempt. Valuable information about obtaining, valuing and selling patents sent free to any address. Printed copies of the drawings and specifics* tions of any United States patent sent upon receipt of 25 cents, Our practice is not confined to Iowa.
