Great Convention cf Sunday- School Workers in St. Louis—The City Re- vivals—Programme of the Ethical Cul- ture Society—Churoh News. The letter from Archbishop P. J. Ryan of Philadelphia, published in last evening’s Post; DIsPaTCH, in Which he explained his attitude in regard to Vicar-General Brady and the coadjutorship, fell as a bomb among the local clergy, who at once evinced a de- sire to disown the responsibility for the criti- _# cisms aimed at the Archbishop of Pniladel- phia, Archbishop Ryan said frankly that he was in favor of Fr. Brady’s appointment as Coadjutor, because Archbishop Kenrick, who had had every opportunity of knowing him well had repeatedly urged his nom- ination and also because he himself (ArchbDishop Ryan) had always believed and still believes Fr. Brady to be a most worthy ecclesiastic. But the Archbishop takes care to say that when the English and German Speaking priests metand agreed upon three names to be presented tothe Bishop of the Provinee, he determined to confine himself as one of the Archbishops of the country, to the recommendation of one of the candl- gates, Which“ he says, I have done. In other words he set aside his personal prefer- ence for Fr. Bradyand accepted the action of the priests. Rev. Eugene Coyle, rector of the Cathedral Ohurch, Third and Walnut streets, ex- pressed himself thus to-day: ‘‘The criticisms cast at Archbishop Ryan on account of his - letterto Fr. Tobyn, in which he admitted that he was in favor of Fr. Brady’s appoint- ment to the coadjutorship were uncalled for and unjust, because the explana- ation made by the Archbishop in his letter published last evening shows that he had a right to favor whomsoever he pleased, as long as the priests did not take action. The clergy of St. Louis disown all res ponsi- bility forthe abuse heaped on Archbishop Ryan and Fr. Brady, and with per- haps one exception they deplore the resurrection of the original trouble at this late day. The Archbishop likes to feel that he is at home when he comes to St. Louts, and he dislikes to curtail his visits to this city, but he is very sensitive of criticisms which emanate from this city.’’ Others of the clergy spoke in the same tone. They were sorry that the long-ended coaa- jutor squabble had beer revived in the form of a personal Archbishop Ryan is said contemplating a visit tothis city in the near future and his many friends look forward to his coming with pleasure. It is not Known how soon he will come, but he will not long ostpone his visit. He holds Archbishop Kenrick in high esteem and he is anxious to be with him now that he is ill and weakly. Coming Suniay-Sch>ol Convention. The Sunda schools of the city are begin- ning to take an active interest in the ar- rangements for the Seventh International and Second World’s Sunday-school conven- tions, which are to be held in thiscity the last part of next August and the early days of september. Mr. Wm. H. McClain, Chairman of the Convention Committee, and Mr. Moses Greenwood, Jr., President of the St. Louls Sunday- school Union, have just issued a cir- culaf letter to the various schools. In part the letter is as follows: Never before in our history has there been such anopportunity for the Sunday- schools of this city to receive and entertain such a delegation as these two conventions will bring to our doors—nearly 2,000 dele- gates, reprosenting every Christian land, wiil be with us. As you are doubtless aware, it was only by the most earnest work on the part of delegates from St. Louis and the State of Missouri, attending the convention held in 1890, at Pittsburg, that we were able to secure these two conventions, and I am sure it Is the wish of every Sunday-school worker of this city toso entertain the delegates that they will not be disappointed in having selected St. Louis as the place for holding the conventions of 1893. „for the past twenty years international gunday- school conventions have been held in various parts of this country, and there has been representatives from nearly every State and Territory in this country and Prov- ince of Canada. Four years ago there was held in London the first World's Sunday- school Convention, with representatives — Johann Hofes ‘Malt Ex- tract vs. Ale. lt is claimed for — Hoff’s Malt Extract that a ozen bottles of it is equal in nutri- ment and tonic qualities to a cask of ale. It is well known by almost ev- erybody that farinaceous foods form starch in the human constitution. The starch assimilates with the sys- tem in proportion to the degree of |, And it has been proved by experiment that whereas London Porter only dissolved 2 25, per cent of the starch, Johann Hoff’s Malt Ex- tract dissolved 60 per cent, and it empys, moreover, the superadded recommendation of containing no alcohol, or at any rate, the merest suspicion of alcohol. And therefore 5 the most scrupulous may take it hesitation.

Soon after receiving a list of the committeemen, a meeting will be called at which the method to be employed will be announced and sub- scription books for the use of the committees will be distributed. It ig evident that the Sunday - school Union Officials mean business and are determined to begin early for the entertainment of their visiting brethren. City Revivals. The revivals in the several city churches are still in progress and. if possible, are gain- ingin interest. Maj. Cole, the evangelist, who has been preaching at Dr. Brooke’s Presbyterian Church, Washington and Comp- ton avenues, every ‘nl ht, will occupy the ulpit at Union M.

B. and Janetta Harris, Web- ster, Ind., is one of thousands com- pletely cured by the CUTICURA REM- EDIES of a torturing and disfiguring skin disease, after many doctors and remedies had wholly failed. The marvelous cures daily performed by these great remedies have astonished all familiar with them. None but mothers realize how these little ones suffer when their tender skins are literally on fire with itching and burning eczemas, and other itching scaly, blotchy and pimply skin and scalp diseases. To know that a sin- gle application of the CUTICURA REMEDIES will afford instant relief, permit rest and sleep, and point to a permanent and economical (because most speedy) cure, and not to use them, is to fail in your duty. Par- ents, think of the mental and physic- all suffering to be endured in years to come from neglected skin, scalp and blood diseases. Cures made in in- fancy and childhood are almost in- variably permanent. Sold everywhere. Price: Curicura, 50e Soap, 25c; RESOLVENT, $1.

The new St, Louls Public Library will be formally opened and dedicated this evening at 8 o' clock at the Enteriainment Hall in the Exposition building.
