GATHERING AT HAGUE SLK2PY DUTCH TOWN HAVING ITS FEBIODICAL AWAKENING. THE HAGUE, June 13.?The delegates of various countries to the second Hague peace conference, which will be formally opened June 15. accompanied by a host of Secretaries, technical experts and attaches. together with a small army of newspaper correspondents, are arriving here by every train, and the lazy old Dutch capital is beginning to buzz with an animation such as has not been witnessed since the conference of 1899. The Austrian delegation arrived Tuesday and were first on the ground. Gen. Horace Porter, former ambassador to France and one of the American -plenipotentiaries, arrived yesterday, as did the French delegates, Keirofcu Tsuruki and a section oX-the Japanese delegates. Dr. Ruy Barboza and his fellow-Brazilians, Gonzalo de Quesada. Senor S&nguily and Dr. Bustamente, representing Cuba, and John W. Foster, former Secretarv of State of fhe United States, who represents China. The delegates from Central America must make adhesion on behalf of their respective countries to the convention of ISO!), and this formality will be carried out Friday, the 14th. Already the feeling is prevalent among the arriving diplomats that the United States Is destined to play a great role in the coming conference. Under her auspices the countries of South and Central Amprira will hp intrAHn^aH fn An a footing of equality. The European delegates entertain no doubt that all the representatives of America will present a practically united front at this conference and that henceforth they will be an Immense factor in such world conventions. Some surprises are expected from the other side of the Atlantic. Late Instructions. ,N Late instructions from Washington await the delegates here, but the general position of the United States may be summed up as follows: The most advanced position on every question involving the peaceful adjustment of international disputes, whether the sub| ject comes up in the form of a proposal for the limitation of the expenditures for nrmampnts immimltv " iMitiij v/i ty at sea, the extension of the principle of arbitration, the permanent strengthening of the personnel of The Hague tribunal or the Drago doctrine. The delegates are assembling in a .spirit hopeful of furthering the unfinished work of but upon the main question?the limitation of armaments?much skepticism is displayed. Speculation preliminary to the formal opening revolves about two questions: Which power, if any, will present a concrete proposition regarding the limitation of armaments, and the publicity?of the sittings? According to the latest information Great Britain now desires America to take the initiative in the matter of limitation. M. Nelidoff. one of the Russian delegates, at the first business session on June 17 Intends to' propose the acceptance r\ f tVia Pncolon nrncrro m TTtllPRR thfi (1UC8* tlon of limitation Is formally raised on Monday its postponement until the discussion of the Russian program Is completed would seem inevitable: In the matter of the publicity of the plenary sittings it is learned that Germany has decided to advocate publicity, and. consequently. the chances therefor have suddenly become brighter. Germany, It Is declared. fears that her position might be misrepresented before the world if secrecjr were observed. This change In her position Is regarded as practically settling the question in the affirmative, as America, pursuant to her traditional policy in playing the cards above board, openly advocates publicity, and. with Germany favorable, no Kuropeaa power is likely to assume the onus of objecting. The motion for publicity will be presented by the Dutch delegates. APPEALS TO CLEBOT. Bishop Paret Says There Should Be Kore Men for Ministry. BALIMORE, Md.. June 13.?Bishop Paret has Issued a pastoral letter to the clergy and members of the Protestaut Episcopal Church in Maryland, in whlth he speaks of the lack of men taking orders in the church, and in which he gently asks if some of the fault does not lie with the clergy. The letter, which is to be read In the churches, follows. In part: Dear Brethren?I ask your thought, your prayers and your help in trying to meet a need of the church which is very sorely felt at this present time. We are praying, and have long been praying, that 'the Lord of the harvest would send forth laborers into his harvest.' But our prayers seem to bring no answer. For many years the number of men seeking and entering Christ's service fh the sacred ministry has been growing less; not In Maryland only, but everywhere. Rrethren ht the clergy, is it possible that some part oT the fault may be with you? Four times in a year there are the stated times of ordination, and in connection with them the Ember days and their special prayers in relation to those to be ordained. Every one of those Sundays would be a grand opportunity for speaking to the people about the sacred ministry and Christ's call for ministers. If we emphasize these Ember days and make their observance real, might we not expect some result? Dear brethren, I entreat you, speak warmly and often to your people about this. Give it fair place In your preaching. Why can it not be made a custom that at each Ember time one of the Sunday sermons should be concerring the ministry, its nature, its divine institution, the need of it, the work, and an appeal to parents and to youftg men? It Is a matter to which, in the training of his first aiwistles the Lord himself gave a large part of his three years of labor, to which he gave his personal interest in the selection of men, and about which he spake and taught much. But is there not another fault? How many of you, brethren of the clergy, are watchinK and studying your boys and; young men for this purpose? Are the boys in your Sunday school ever warmly reminded that Christ is calling some of them to this grandest .'f all ways for using life for him? I think of one parish where for many years it has been the pastoral usage to go personally to young men, inviting and persuading them to this holy calling, and that fidelity has been blessed with good results. I must appeal also to Christian fathers and mothers. Your influence In determining the course of the lives of your sons is very great. The calls of the world are very tempting: its business and Its vari'ous proesslons, its money-making methods. Will you add your influence to those calls? Or have you faith to suggest something better? You cannot Wo Hn not ??lc it Phri?t rinpa nnt ask that. But do not hold your sons back from that higher calling. Help them to choose it, and pray that they may do so. Besides the clergy and the parents, the parishes'or congregations have their special duties In this respect. Every iairly strong parish ought always to have at least one candidate for holy orders', but out of our more than 100 there are not more than five that do so. And more than this, every really strong parish?strong enough to be self-supporting?ought to be making generous provision for the expenses of the work in.x54 in $2.00 $1.50 30 ln.xOO in $2.50 $2.00 3G in.x72 in $3.00 $2.30 48 in.x84 in $4.50 $4.00 | Velvet Rugs.
