THE COMING CHURCH.
The Church that would be truly
catholic must deal in its teaching,
without obscurity and double mean-
ing, with the simple and universal
elements of Christianity; and it
must be able to do this unhindered
by any narrowness of theory that
shall oppose itself to the intellectual
movement of the world. It will be
a Church for those who have no
desire to nurse antagonisms, and
are eager to forget in all practical
ways that the disciples of Christ are
not a single and undivided com-
pany. Its ministry will be a min-
istry of reconciliation. Its preach-
ers will stand at that point where
all the Christian sects meet; large-
minded, large-hearted men, anxious
not to divide but to unite, to em-
phasize not disagreements but the
hidden and deeper unities, affirma-
tive without bei^g dogmatic, ra-
tional without being rationalistic,
earnest without bigotry, liberal
without indifference.

Paris, July 27.—A sharp encoun-
ter occurred betkeen Caillaux and
Heneri Berstein, author and inti-
mate friend of M. Calmette. Call-

conditions under which the Figaro

Hungarian government. Caillaui

disposed of two million, six hun-

by a half glol>e, "the flower basket," 26 feet in height
and weighing twenty-eight tons Durinp the Ex-
position the half-globe will be planted with flowers
of all kinds At night the dome will become one of
the most spectacular features of the Exposition.
Kaleidoscopic lights from within will play upon the
glass, giving the giant sphere the effect of a hu" e
iridescent soap bubble. South of the Palace of
Varied Industries W also in the South Gardens,
restivgi Hall, a rendexyoya for conventions in 1V15,
is under construction.
The eight exhibit palaces forming the rectangle
are divided by three avenues running north and
south snJ one east and west. At the intersection of
tht east and west avenue with the north and south
avenue lie three great courts of honor, the walls of
the four building* surrounding each court being
identical to form *he oval of the court Fn the center
of the group :s the great Court of the Universe: on
the west, paralleling the Court of the Universe, is
the Court of the Four Seasons, and on the east is
the Court of Abundance. Vast colonnades encircle
the courts, running from their onenings on San
brsncisco harbor Hack to the courts thpmselves.
From slmost any noint of view, th" visitor while
traversing the courts will gain flsshing rhmpses of
the blue harbor between the lofty colonnades

ei the cojrt Betvcn t(ie -otirtu a'ong the
palaces is very lavish. The patios are cut off from
the courts by huge .olonnades, so that each presents
a distinctive scn^me of color and decoration The
prevailing decoration of these vast open aisles is
Pcmpeiian with shades of green and terra cotta, of
robin's egg blue and Venetian red, blending in mar-
velous mosaics.
The outside walls of the central group of eight
palaces forms an almost continuous facade. Through-
out its entire circuit of the group its circuit is un-
broken save by the huge and highly decorated portals
and entrances to the exhibit palaces, by the openings
of the courts upon San Francisco harbor and by the
two other minor courts that open out upon the South
Gardens.
Throughout the circuit of the vast encircling
facades there is regularity in the architecture. In
the walls of the stately palaces are green latticed
windows with a wealth of gold and terra cotta show-
ing behind the netwoik of the green. The windows
recall those of tlie great monasteries. Repeated
groups of statuary, lofty Corinthian and Ionic col-
umns. stately portals and a profusion of ornamental
trees, some of them r.ftv feet in height, and shrubs
contrast with the prevailing ivory tint, the walls
lending life snd heautv to the ®nsemMe.
And in this great shell, which is to house the ex-
hibits of the world, will the world's progress be

More than 230 great international congresses
and conventions, at which more than BOO,000 acred
■ted delegates will assemble, have voted to meet in
San Francisco in 1915. It is expected that fully 500
ccnventions will have decided to meet In San Fran-
cisco by the time the exposition opens. The dele-
gates to these assemblages will come from every par$
of the glebe, and leaders in art, science, industry and
in the teaching of ethical pronagandn, will present in
standardized form the results of the world's bea*
efforts in recent years. A resume of the conventions
that have voted to meet in San Francisco disJ
