Letter PromnlKntcll bjr
lluunc of lllnlioii .
In lieu of a sermon yesterday morning at
5t. Paul's Episcopal church , the rector ,
lev. L. P. McDonald , read to the congrega-
Inn the pastoral letter promulgated by the
jotiso of bishops , which met last month
n Washington , D. C. The letter reviews
.he growth ot the church during the last
.hree years and makes a strong appeal for
moro adequate support for the mission work
of the church. The letter , In part , Is as
"One more triennial convention of the
church has met and concluded Its delibera
tions. Never before , wo believe , has a spirit
of profounder seriousness pervaded the
minds of bishops nnd deputlco ; never has
a council of this church felt moro deeply
the rcaponslblHtles of the hour. With new
and tremendous obligations pressing upon
the church and the nation , with problems
of vast Import for the future confronting
us , with strong cries for help from the peoples
ples of many lands Bounding In our ears ,
your bishops and your representatives In
convention assembled have prayed and have
labored , reverently we trust , In the spirit of
Christ. Five now missionary bishops have
been erected , and the jurisdictions of the
domestic missionary field have been redis
tributed , and In some Instances renamed.
Amendments to our constitution and canons
have been considered and adopted , to meet
the actual needs of the time. Above all ,
the reporte ot workers In the mission field
have been heard and every effort has been
made to kindle In the hearts of the pcoplo
an enthusiasm for the extension of the
kingdom of God.
"Assembled hero , In the capita ? city of the
republic : , welcomed with gracious kindness
by the president of the United States , and
assured by him of his appreciation of 'this
ancient church' and Its 'new sowing for the
Master and for man , ' we are mindful of the
divine trust committed unto us and wouk
urge upon our brethren of the clergy ani
laity a solemn consideration In humlfity anc
with prayer of the vital Issues that wo mus
meet and for our dealings with which wo
must give account. Our attention line 'been
specially called , by a rcEoFutlon adopted by
the house of deputies , to the fact that next
Whitsunday will bo the seventh semi-cen
tennial anniversary of the book ot common
prayer. And wo moat earnestly ask that
the day may be observed In our churches
as commemorating an event which , more
than any other slngte gift of God , has re
versed the confusion ot tongues , by giving
to tbo lips ot countless worshipers the ono
'mouth * In which to show forth God's praise.
"And we are glad , while Insisting upon
the Importance of keeping the public school
system ot education free from political In
trigue or denominational Intrusion , to urge
all the moro that It inuot be complemented
and consecrated by more careful and definite
training In religious truth In the family and
In the Sunday schools , In church schools and
colleges , and In the careful teaching of the
clergy ot > the church.
"We gladly recognize the earnest and
effectual work of the various organization !
In the church the Woman's auxiliary , the
Brotherhood of St. Andrew , the Girls' '
Friendly society , the Daughters of thi
King , the devout women who In sister
hoods and as deaconesses are bearing theli
faithful witness and turning many to Christ
It Is good for us to know that the numbei
of persons confirmed during the last three
years Is 3,500 more than In the like preced
ing period ; that our list of communicant :
has grown by 63,115 , an Increase of 10 pel
cent , and that the contributions ot the las !
trlenntum exceed those of the like preced
ing period by $1,150,104.70. The cry of th (
colored people , who are our wards a :
Christian citizens of America , for adequate
expenditure of labor and money to trail
them to citizenship of the nation and th <
church ; the call for means to seize thi
openings and opportunities In the mission
ary districts and the huge unoccupied area ;
In dioceses ot the west and south ; thi
claims from our stinted missions In forelgi
lands all _ these are painful evidences o
wide Indifference and of Inadequate support
We dare not face the future without a rec
ognltlon of the fact that this church need
the stirring up of the wills of the faltbfu
to the plenteous bringing forth of the frul
Of good works , of the giving of their sub
stance and themselves to further the Mas
ter's work. Assured of our apostolic lin
cage , wo need to bo filled with apostolic lov <
and zeal. And as the new century open ;
up before us we plead with the clergy am
lay people to rise to the splendid posslblll
ties of a richer and more real dlscharg
of their stewardship for God. The man whi
believes In Christ must , believe In missions
must believe In propagating the gospel
And If he believe in everything but mis
slons , ho may repeat the creeds , recelv
the sacrament , luxuriate In the poetry o
worship , addict himself to theological
canonical or scriptural knowledge , and stll
be recreant In his duty to his Lord.
"Wo are Americans , proud Indeed of ou :
traditions ot law and liberty , as Anglo
Saxons , yet with the hopes and convictions
the privileges and responsibilities of Amerl
cans. And our church la catholic and free
free because she Is catholic and catholl
because she Is free ; an American churcl
from eatt to west , from north to south , om
In organization and government , yielding tine
no alien Influence and subject to no forelgi
control. To us , therefore , as members o
this American church , must appeal with pe
cullar force the great events which , In thi
providence of God , have carried our natloi
Into the foremost of power among the gov
ernments of the earth and compelled her ti
accept a larger share of responsibility In th1
uplifting of mankind. In the Increaslni
complexity of our American life , with It
endless varieties of racial traditions , It
over-Increasing accentuation of social o
commercial rivalries or competitions , Its no
unnatural disposition to grasp at terrltorla
aggrandizement or Imperial expansion , ther
need forever to bo heard the clear notes o
these august and simple axioms on whlcl
rest Integrity of character and' righteous
ness of conduct. It ls the perpetual tempta
tlon of success , whether It bo the success o
the Individual or , the triumphs of the state
to forget these , and to believe , living as w
are In the hot glare of our personal or na
tlonal triumphs , that force and will and th
splendor of Illustrious achievement are th
things that make a people great. "

Ing them and to turn to lives of business
and righteousness.
The evening service was for the public
generally and the pretty little church was

Systematic Work of a Crook.
PETERSON , la. , Nov. 13. ( Special. )
Early this morning C. W. Fllmore. presi
dent of the Peterson bank , had one Charles
A. Burns arrested at Stoux Rapids on the
charge of receiving money under false pre
tenses to the amount of $1,500. It appears
that Burns attempted to make a loan on
a Clay county farm from the Clay County
bank at Spencer , la. , but failed on account
ot the bank officials Insisting on going onto
the farm and seeing It and the renter , so ho
came to Peterson and put the deal through
and received $200 In cash , the balance to
have been paid by draft after Fllmore had
f seen the farm. But just at 'tho time he was
suspected and telegrams were sent to Alfred
Prueh of Freeport , 111. , asking If he had
deeded his Clay county farm to Charles A.
Burns. Mr. Frueh denied having ever sold
ils Clay county farm to anybody. Before
: rylng to get a loan on this farm Burns
had forged a deed from Mr. Frueh to him
self and the deed purported to be elgned
ay Mrs. Frueh , who was afterwards proven
to have been dead for five years. Burns
also released a mortgage for $200 to the
German Loan and Trust company. Ho had
this all properly recorded and an abstract
made. He Is now in the Spencer jail and
the owner of the land and the insurance
company which made the loan will enter a
charge of forgery in addition to Banker
Fllmore's charge of receiving money un
der false pretenses.

Farm Work Not Pronre * lnK.
SPIRIT LAKE , la. . Nov. 13. ( Speclal.- )
Though Iowa farmers never worked mon
diligently the work of many Is sadly behind
There Is yet much 'threshing 4o do and i
largo amount of corn to husk. The con
Is heavy and being BO badly lodged U comei
slowly and laboriously. The most serlou :
feature of the situation In Its effect upor
the future Is the lateness ot much of thi
fall plowing and the large amount tha1
must go over until spring. A late sprint
.or a wet one will catch many farmers bare
and the next crop Is pretty sure to ehow thi
effects of the present situation. The causi
of the backwardness ot farm work It du <
to the heavy crop to some extent , bu
largely to the August storm , which madi
weeks of extra work with the small grali
and the lees of much time In repalrlnf
bulldlnjs. it appears that many farmer
must cultivate a IKS acreage or hire mon

"Tay Pay" O'Connor's paper says that the
prince of Wales was once taking a walk In
St. James' park before breakfast , when ho
found himself followed by a well dressed but
crazy looking , old woman. Having seen this
woman before , and probably guessing what
her object was , the prince resolved to take
no notice of her , but continued his walk
until obliged to turn homeward. The woman
then stood before him and courleslcd. The
prlnco raised his hat and tried to pass on.
"I have a grievance , your royal highness , "
began the stranger , producing from her
handbag n roll of closely written parchment.
"Ach , madam , these Is not zo first time I
have been taken for the prince of Wales ! "
was the reply In a gruff voice with a strong
German accent. After flashing n glance of
deepest scorn upon him , the old woman put
away her precious documents , remarking :
"I have the honor to have known all the
members of the royal family , and If my eye
sight were not becoming bad nowadays I
should not have made such an astonishing
error ns to take you for the prince ! " The
prince of Wales again took off his hat , smiled
and proceeded on his way.

DEADWOOD. S. D. , Nov. 13.-Spcclol. ( )
Another very Important mining sale has
been martn In the Southern Hills this week.
For several months past Frank Lockhart ot
Kaplil City has had an option on several
claims which are located west of the Holy
Terror property at Keystone. The claims
arc the Egyptian group of two , the N. 1'opc ,
J. D. n. Fraction , West Star Fraction anil
he Gold Link Fraction. The property Is
considered among ( he Jiiout valuable in the
Keystone raining district and It was much
coveted by the Holy Terror company. It
was sold by Lockhart to R. M. Matoncy ot
Joadwood , who Is olio of the most succces-
ul mining men In the Northern Hills. Work
will 'be ' commenced Immediately on the
newly acquired property and as the Holy
Terror ledge of free-milling ere can be
raced across the ground there Is not much
question of the future success of the mines.
The Southern Htlrs arc rapidly coming to
the front In the opinion of the Dlack Hills
mine promoters and the eastern Investors.
The Burlington Railway company has sur
veyors In the vicinity ot Keystone now
staking out the roadbed for a standard gunge
road from Hill City to Keystone. Thte
jlaco Is now reached by etago from cither
illll City or Hermosa , a distance of about
.wclvo miles. As soon as the road Is put
through there will be great Increase In busi
ness In the camp and mining property will
take an advance In price.
The flrut ere was taken out of the King ot
the West group of claims In Hornblende
camp on Tuesday ot this week and treated In
the new Montczuma mill at Ilochford , four
miles from the mine. A tunnel was drifted
in at the side of the hill and -the ore ledge
tapped about twenty feet from the surface.
The ore runs about $9 n ton , free-milling ,
which Is unusually rich. This property was
only recently leased and bonded to Carl
Dlank ot Deadwood and H. Uonncll of Dos-
ton.

A hlostlng plant was put In at the Cherry
Gulch shaft , near Terry , this week. This
property Is under leosie to two parties at
Terry and W. M. Darker and D. C. Boley
of Deadwood. The shaft Is down 130 fet
and two crosscuts are being run east and
west , the plan being to strike the Den Hur
shoot ot ere , which Is supposed to cross the
Cherry Qulch property. The Indications ore
CONSULTING A WOMAN.
Mrs. Piukham's Advice Inspires
Confidence and Hopo.
Examination by a male physician is
& hard trial to a delicately organized
woman.
She puts it off as long as she dare ,
and is only driven' to it by fear of can
cer , polypus , or some dreadful ill.
Most frequently such a woman leaves
a physician's oiTico
where she has un
dergone a critical
examination with
an impressionmore
or less , of discour
agement.
This condi
tion of the
mind destroys
the effect of
advice ; and
she grows
worse rathe *
than better. In consulting Mrs. Pink-
ham no hesitation need be felt , the
story is told to a woman and is wholly
confidential. Mrs. Pinkham's address
