The work just completed involved th expenditure of $23,000, thus making the property value of the church home fully J60.000.

MHvHHM MMtv Episcopal Cbnrch Will Not Change Its Name ' Cincinnati, Oct 17.-r-Votliig Satur day on the 'subject-' of changing the name of1 the Protestant Episcopal church, tho House of Deputies decid ed by at majurity of ono vote that the present title Is the proper due for the church and that it would be wrong to change the name of the title page of the hymnal to "The Holy, Catholic Church- or 'The Catholic Church of the United States." ' ' . The matter is now closed so far as this couvention goes, unless some of the delegates, bring it np again in the house of bishops. The question has not dealt with the name of the church aa It relates to the general public, but 'rather to the title page of the hymnal. The next general convention meets in New York city in 1913, and the question will come up again at that gathering, according to convention officers. . Prominent among the speakers on the matter were the Rev. Carl E. Grammer,' of Philadelphia: Archdea con B. Talbot, of Fon du Lac; the Rev. William T. Capers, of Lexington, Ky.; Dr. Williams A. Manning, of New York city; and Judge Thomas A. Packard of Baltimore. ' . , Aye . No. Divided Clericals .. .. 42 15 v 10 Lay .. .... 31 24 . As there were D3 dioceses represent cd in the convention by lay delegations it required the affirmative vote of 32 of them to make the change. Tho clergy gave the required majority but the lay deputies were one vote short of enough, so the resolution 'was lost by non-concurrence of orders. A similar fate by exactly the same margin of one vote defeated the pro posal at the general convention three years' ago.- The house of bishops completed the work for the appointment of suffragan bishops, which has been one of the big points up for decision by the church convention . The measure was passed earlier in the week by the house of deputies, and the house of bishops made this unanimous by passing a canon that the suffragan hibsons be appointed to aid the bishops in the work of their diocseses. This canon ha been opposed by the negro mem bers of the church but has had ''the loyal support of a majority of the bishops and deplties. Gifford Pinchot cancelled his en gagainent to speak here at the services in the music hall Sunday night which was attended by the missionary dele gates to the convention. His place was taken by Alfred JC Marling .of New York One of the biggest social events of the week iwaa the banquet by the commercial club at the Queen City club to Mr. J. P.

Philanthropic Loan Societies Being Formed Washington, Oct. 17. In"' several American cities attempts are oclng made to eradicate the usury evil of loan sharks and pawn shops by the establishment of low interest loan societies conducted , pimply to meet their operating expenses. A band of philanthropists in Chicago 111., with apparent success, has established a "pawn society," which loans money upon pledges at 1 per cent, per month, as compared . with the usual charge in that city by private brokers of 10 per cent per month. The idea in this country is a copy of the municipal "pawn societies of several European cities. An aoctrunt of one of thcBe is given In a report to the state department by Consul Henry H. Morgan. It is the municipal pawn society of Am' stcrdam, Holland, hnown as the Bank van Loonlng. This is probably the oldest pawn shop in existence. It was started in the early part of the 17th century. The earliest record loan made by this institution was on April 29, 1614. The business is still conducted in the original building erected for it at that time, though 15 branch offices have been opened throughout the city to meet the ever increasing demands of the business. To show the "easy familiarity" with the "hock shop" which long contact with this venerable Institu tion has bred in Hollanders, Consul Morgan states that It lathe custom of a vast number of the poorer people of Amsterdam to pawn their "Sun day best" clothes on Monday morn' ing, redeem them Saturday night and "soak" them again on the following Monday morning, thus securing their U3e for the Sunday outing. Over 40 per cent, of the business of the Bank van Leoning, which amounts-yearly to over $1,000,000, is of pledges of this class household articles, etc. The rstes of Interest charged run, according to the kind of goods pawn ed, from 6 to 13 per cent, per annum Amsterdam has never placed a single law upon its statute boks regulating the interest charges of pawn shops simply because tho competition of the municipal societiy has practically run them out of business. Besides the Interest charges there, is a fee demanded on all pledges to meet the administrative expenses of the insti tution. This is only frori $.004 $.10 an article. Yet from these sourses of income, and from the sale of unre deemed pledges and rents for offices In the bank building, the Bank van Leoning insures every article which it holds in pawn, pensions all old employes and their widows and clcam 3 per cent on its Investment Each pledge is held for six months and then, failing its redemption by the owners, is sold at public auction after being advertised for two days. The capital of the bank is $Z02,8r.o. Its annual revenue ia about $80,000 a year. It contributes $5,000 a year to Its pension fund. The Bank van Leoning Is strictly a municipal affair, the business con ducted by five directors appointed by the city government and by tbe burgomaster or mayor. By its char ter it Is restricted In earnings to 3 per rent, net on Its Investment, and each three years its schedule of charges is made over so that the esti mated Income will amount to only tbe 3 per cent The institution is under strict police supervision and thia has made tbe business of "fenc ing," or handling stolen goods, very dangerous in Holland as at bt it Is difficult for other pawn snnps to show legitimate reasons for remaining In this business.

Still the dem ocratic flood rises. . With varying for tunes the trenietiluii8 contest for su premacy in the next .house of repre sentatives progresses. The fighting all along the line from the Atlantic to tho Pacific is very hard and luces- sant,.but with each survey of the Held tho democrats seem, to have a little tho best of it j. ' " Much of the disadvantage that the party 1n power suffers from is due to tbe fael that there Is a new leader In tho field openly seeking to displace his former friend, PresldenfTaft, as the leader of the party and conducting a thinly disguished effort to nominate himself for president In 1912. No party can undergo such an ex perience and win battles. This Is the consensus of all thoughtful men who have been figuring on tho result , Down to figures, the forecast shows this week that there are now 161 dis tricts reasonably sure for the demo crats, against 141, a week ago; 140 districts reasonably, bits for tbe re publicans, against 132 lost weV and that the number of doubtful districts has been reduced from 118 to 90. Of these districts 64 are now republican and 26 democrat 1c, ' democrats have to win 35 of these doubtful districts; , the republicans 65. Thla la the problem confronting the congressional committee of the two parties. Perhaps the moat significant change which have been made since last week are In New York. It Vill be recalled that last week the forecast made thir teen republican districts in New York doubtful, giving tbe democrats and republicans each twelve districts rea sonably sure. The reporter this week gives IS districts reasonably sure to tbe democrats, 14 districts reasonably sure to the republicans, while seven districts which are republican now are classified as doubtful. These changes have been due large ly to,, conditions prevailing in New York strongly resembling the cam paign, of 132, when C rover Cleve land, democrat, defeated Charlna T. Folger, republican, by nearly 200.000 plurality. At the same time the dem ocrats elected 20 members of the bouse and th republicans but 13.
