Resolved, That wo favor a substi tute, should It be found to be gener ally acceptable, fome name Incorporat ing the term Catholic because1. la our opinion. It best expresses the character and scape of the teaching of Jesus and the faith of our church. That the present title of the Protestant Episcopal Church is Inadequate was the s nse of a resolution adopted yesterday at the annual convention of the diocese of Oregon. It wan resolved the catholic ity of the church should be emphasized rather than' Its eeetarlanism. The conven tion closed last evening with a reception given by Bishop B. V.'istar Morris at the Bishop Scott Academy. Today special :rvice3 will be held in the Episcopal churches. Th proposed change In the title of the church was suggest' d In the report of a committee composed of Rev. A. A. Mor r'.son, chairman. Rev. John E. Simpson, Charles William Turner. S. E. Joseph! and C. H. Chandler. This report, which was read by Chairman Morrison, is as follows: "Your committee does not doubt that any historic name familiar for genera tions will have become endeared to many, and yet it is an indisputable fact that we have a title which, except when they are obliged to do so, the vast majority of our people, bishops, clergy and laity, will not or do not use. Even the shortened title, "The Episcopal Church," is com paratively modern, and must seem, to out siders at least, to belong to a class of such titles as the Presbyterian Church, the Methodist Church, etc., which has sectarian suggf stiveness. "Hence, and for other reasons, has come what even those of us who may be personally averse to change should not be unwilling to recognize as a reaching out for a better name. "On the other hand, those of us jvho are personally favorable to change may well concede that anything like general acceptance of any one of the names pro posed Is not at present within sight. Op portunlty, however, we think, may well be given to this convention to express Its judgment that this or that name would be an Improvement. One. at least, of the writers quoted in our bishop's address strongly emphasizes our catholicity. Yet that claim Is offensively Impeached by one great historic body, which in late years has taken to calling us not Protee tantsj but non-Catholics: and, for lack of the evident assertion of that catholicity in such a way as to be manifest to all men, we aro supposed by many Protes tants to acquiesce In the principle of sec tarian organization." The report concluded with recommenda tion that the foregoing resolution be adopted. Today special services will be held in the various churches, visiting clergymen being the leaders. Bishop Keator, of Olympia, will preach at Trinity Chapel in the morning, and with other clergy will address the missionary meeting in the evening. At St. David's Church, visiting clergy will deliver addresses at the morning hour. At 3:45 P. M. the Sunday school will listen to an address by the bishop of Olympia, At S P.

In last Sunday's Oregonlan was pub lished a letter which I addressed to the committee on mines and mining of the Lewis and Clark Exposition, and which has been the cause of numerous corre spondence with me from outside Investors. My attention has been called to many parts of the state where somo of those minerals aro found, and there was somo complaint because I did not speak of other minerals known to exist in Oregon. When I addressed that letter to the com mittee I had no thought of its publica tlon, or I would have been more care ful in its preparation and gone more into detail. For the benefit of those who feel that some minerals in the state were overlooked, I will try to briefly mend the omission: Sienna, a mineral paint or ochre, ex ists in several places in Oregon, especial ly on land owned by Ellas Simmons at Tvalker Or. This mineral when properly prepared is equal, I think, to any o the Imported article. Ferro tungsten is valued in making al loys, and the principal mineral is known as wolfranlte. It Is a heavy, yellowish white mineral with a vitreous luster. The great Western Exploration & Reduction Company of Boulder, Colo., is concen trating about 15 tons into one, and the concentrates average from 00 to 6S per cent tungsten acia. The uses of tungsten are varied. Until recent years the only use made of the prepared salt was for making retainable or fast-coloring matter in cotton, making it wasnanie, ana also lor rendering non innamable clothes for theatrical and other purposes, and also for making col ored paper. The chief use of tungsten "s in the manufacture of steeL Calcium tungsten is used in the Roentgen rays apparatus and in coloring glass. Fifty per cent tungsten is worth about 5100 per ton or J2 per unit. Many fine samples of the ore have been brought me from Crook County, Or., and from tho State or vashlngton. - Molybdenum. A few years ago there was but little use for'lt. except In the juoumotiure oi cenam cnemicai re agents, but now there Is a very large de mand for these ores. Molybdenite is found In foliated masses or scales with a bright metallc luster. It is soft ran be scratched with- the finger nail, is of a. ieau gray color ana orten mistaken for plumbago. It is-used in tho preparation of blue carmine for coloring porcelain; it also adds greatly to the strength of steel; ferro-alloys of this metal is now being made to be used in the preparation of a special steel. It is supposed that molybdenum is used in place of tung sten in the manufacture of hard steel, but this is a mistake. Each has certain valuable properties that give steel great strength. The greatest deposit of molyb denite that I know of in Oregon is in the eastern, part of Union County. I am told of a vein of ore there, very rich in copper and gold, with an eight-Inch vein of molybdente running throush the cen ter of it, which Is almost pure. The production of this article in the United States during the" year 1S01 was about 50 tons. This does not begin to represent the demand of the market. It Is worth from 51 to 51.25 per pound. When the ore carries from 50 to 53 per cent of the mineral, it will net about 5400 per ton. There are no two rare metals in use to day which win pay the prospector better to discover than tungsten and molyb denum. Asbestos or amphlbole. a silica of cal cium and magnesium silicate, as well as chrysolite or hydrous magnesium silicate, have the same properties and both are known as asbestos, and are equal in their heat-resisting properties. The chrysolite is superior in strength and elasticity; is greenish white, sometimes streaked with DELIVERED ANNUAL ADDRESS AT EPISCOPAL . CONVENTION. BISHOP B. WISTAR. MORRIS. yellow, very flexible, easily separated and has a silky luster with short fibers, seldom over three inches long. Some very fine camples have been sent to me from Day ton. Wash., by D. C. Guernsey of that place. New and varied uses are constant ly coming in demand for this article. Fire brick made from clay taken from the Oregon City Paper & Pulp Works and burnt by the Pacific Pottery Company of this city proved to" be a far better quality of brick than those imported from Europe. As for the Lewis and Clark Exposi tion, I will state that all other Pacific states have their collections made and are ready for exhibit, whilst Oregon has done nothing. All must be done in the short space of 18 months, and it will re quire at least 20 men in the field during the whole of this time to collect speci mens for our exhibit. California appropriates 550.00 Oa year, and keeps a large force in the field the whole time and has profited greatly thereby. Most of her large mining industries have been built up by the agency of her Min ing Bureau, while Oregon has all the natu ral resources possessed by California, and should not be behind her in her ex hibit. J. H. FISK. AN OLD, OLD FLEET. "Was Sent by Sennacherib of Assyria Ajcnlnt Chaldca. July St. Nicholas. Among some of the earliest fleets men tioned In history was one built by the clever Phoenician shipbuilders for Sen nacherib, King of Assyria, TOO years be fore Christ, or over 2600 years ago. It seems that this King had a much-dreaded rival In a Prince of Chaldea named Suzub. Th's Prince lived In the marshes in a very un-get-at-able place on some small Island of the Persian Gulf, from which Sen nacherib decideu to out him; and though Sennacherib , and his people lived far in land, he conceived the bold design of making an attack on Suzub with a fleet brought by him from his own country. For this purpose he ordered tho Phoeni cians to construct "tall ships after their country," meaning modeled like their own vessels, and to man them -with sailors from Tyre and SIdon. This fleet, when ready, sailed some dis tance down the Tigris, which you will now find on the map of Turkey In As! Then the ships just think of it! were transferred overland, probably by means of wooden rollers, all the way to the great thoroughfare of the country, the big canal of Babylon. There the soldiers of Sennacherib were put on board, and the fleet sailed down the canal to the Eu phrates River. After much voyaging, the ships, with all the troops, wound their way through the marshes which were at the mouth of the Euphrates; and came Into the Persian Gulf. This was, indeed, a wonderful undertaking to those land bred people, and much doubt was In many minds as they voyaged down. Offerings of little golden images of ships and fishes were thrown into the water for Ea, the god of the sea, whose aid they hoped would decide the contest in their favor. Fortunately, after many trials and hard ships, their efforts were In the end suc cessful, and Suzub was obliged to fly from his stronghold and leave everything in the hands of the conqueror.
