Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. * BALTIMORE, May 5.—Methodists from all over the south and scuthwest are gath- ered in Baltimore for the quadrennial meet- ing of the general conference of the Meth- edist Episcopal Church South, which com- menced its thirteenth session this morning. Bishop John C. Kerner of New Orleans, the veteran member of the episcopacy in this branch of the church, called the con- ference to order. The nine members of the board of bishops will alternate daily in per- forming the duties of presiding officer. The first day's session was devoted chief- ly to organization of the big body of 272 delegates, equally divided among clergy- men and laymen. In some cases the depu- tation is only nominal, as in the case of Rey. “Sam" Jones, the well-known evan- gelist, who is accredited a lay delegate from Georgia. Forty-one annual conferences are repre- sented, including missions in Japan, China, Mexico and Brazil. The delegations were seated by lot in the big drill room of the 4th Regiment armory, on West Fayette street, which will be the scene of the meet- ing of conference. Behind the seats r served for the delegates are over a thou- sand chairs for the public, and additional seats are provided in the galleries over- looking the drill fivor. The address of the bishop was delivered at the opening session by Bishop R. K. Hargrove, reviewing the work of the past four years and cuntaining their recom- mendations. Among these was one for the election of two bishops; one of whom is to succeed Bishop A. G. Haygood of Atiant who has died since the last general con- ference. Increased work in the various fields of the church and the advanced age of some of the remaining bishops makes necessary the elevation of an additional clergyman to the episcopacy. In the business to be brought before con- ference is a memorial from the Baltimore annual conference requesting the increase of thé number of charges in each presiding eldership district from twenty, as at pres- ent, to thirty. This, it is contended, would entail no hardship, as at present the ap- pointments are combined to keep within the required limit, and the work cannot be carried on 8) well-as if they could be made independent of one another. Nawurally, with such a big body, the principal work is done in committees, to which all resolutions are referred and afterward reported to the general body for final disposition. ach conference is en- titled to a member on every committee. Delegates who have previously atiended general conferences are complimenting the lecal committee upon the complete arrange- ments for the comfort of the delegates and the expediting of business. Mr. Robert Magruder is chairman of this committee, with Mr. Sasauel H. Randall as secretary. The delegates from the Baltimore confer- erce are: Clerical—Collins Denny, Nashville, Tenn. Rumsey Smithson, Charlestown, W. Va. P. H. Whisner, Staunton, Va.; J. A. Kern, oo Va.; J. A. Hutchinson, Baltimore, Lay—Roebert Magruder, Baltimore, Md. Bad. S. Conrad, Harrisonburg, Va.; P. V. D. Ccnway, Fredericksburg, Va.; L. J. Wil- liams, Lewisburg, W. V |. W. Woods, Reanoke, Va. Fraternal delegates are present who will be given receptions upon two nights yet to be decided upon. These delegates are Rev. Joseph F. Berry, editor of the Epworth Herald, Chicago, and a delegate from the Methodist Episcopal Church; Mr. Jonathan P. Dolliver, a member of Congress from Iowa, and a lay delegate from the Metho- dist Episcopal Church; Rev. W. T. David- son, professor of theology at Hansworth College, Birmingham, England, and a dele- gate from the Wesleyan conference of Great Britain; Rev. Dr. W. S. Griffin of Toronto, Canada, delegate from the Meth- odist Episcopal Church. OCEAN TRAVEL. American & Red Star Lines. W YORK—QUEENSTOWN—SOUTHAMPTON, W YORK—SOUTHAMPTON—ANTWERP.

CLOSING DAY EXERCISES Entertaining Program at Columbia Institute for the Deaf and Dumb. ‘The exercises of presentation day at Ken- dall Green yesterday afternoon were wit- nessed by a large and interested audience. As usual on these anniversary occa- sions at this institution, the parents and friends of the students were well | represented, end, in addition, a large number were present who are interested in the methods of education adopted for those who have been deprived of the im- portant sense of hearing. The members of the graduating class, which numbered four- teen, and four normal graduates were grouped in front of the stage in the large hall of the main college building. On the stage, which was tastefully adorned with flowers, were seated the members of the faculty of the college, the members of the board of directors and others. The foreign legations were represented and Commis- sioners Wight and Black were there on the part of the District government. The annual addrcss was delivered by Rep- resentative Henderson of Iowa, which was interpreted to the non-hearing portion of the audience by Prof. Fay. The address was not only eloquent, but it was a care- ful study of the methods followed in the education of the deaf and the results achieved. He spoke of the change that had taken place in the treatment of the deaf, and said that in the earlier ages they were regarded as uncanny persons. He then spoke of the educational facilities now open to deaf mutes as well as the useful careers. which were possible. In speaking of the occupations which were especially available he commended that of farming. Orations by Students. Orations were pronounced by a number of the students, Mr. Arlington J. Bickhoff of Michigan being the only one who spoke orally, the others using the sign language, although some were able to speak. Those who delivered orations and their subjects were as follows: Mr. J.

It had been presented to Presi- gent Gallaudet by the deaf mutes cf France, as a mark of the high esteem in which they hold him and the system of teaching which he represents. The French embassador made a short speech of pre- sentation, which was replied to by Presi- dent Gallaudet. = A reception was given by Mrs. Gallaudet at the close of the exercises. Assisting the kostess were Mrs. Hawley, Mrs. Radcliffe, Miss Harlan, Miss Rochester, Miss Mc- Lanahan and the ladies of Kendall Green. ——— ORK OF A CHAPEL. Fendall Cadets Give an Entertain- ment—The Sewing School. The Fendall Cadets of the Peck Me- morial Chapel gave a most successful en- tertainment a few evening ago in the chapel hall. The cadets constitute a strong military Organization, and were so named in honor of the late Mr. Reginald Fendall, wko was the steadfast friend of the work dcne by the members of the chapel in West Washington. One of the features of the entertainment was the receipt of a con- gratulatory note from Mrs. Fendall, in- closing a gift of money from herself, Mr. Charles Galt and Miss Edwards, The closing’ exercises of the sewing echool of Peck Memorial Chapel took place Satur- day. This important work is under the charge of ladies of the Church of the Cove- nant, who conducted it with great suc- cess. The average attendance of scholars was over 100 during the entire season the school was held. At the close of the pro- gram refreshments were served and sou- venirs given to the pupils. The ‘Work will be resumed in the fall. es Librarian Resigns. At the regular meeting of the Sunday school board of Foundry Methodist Epis- copal Church last evening, Mr. W. H. Kerr TOWN BOARD ORGANIZES. New Officials of Hyattsville Take Charge of Affairs, Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. HYATTSVILLE, Mé., May 5, 1898. The regular monthly meeting of the board of town commissioners was held Tuesday evening, Messrs. M. V. Tierney, Clarence Wilson, J. A. Aman, George N. Walker and L. K. Miller being in attendance. A com- mittee, composed of Messrs. Miller, Walker and Tierney, was appointed to audit the books of Mr. H. W. Richardson, town treas- urer. The treasurer's report for the past ; Year was ordered to be printed for distribu- tion among the citizens, Upon the adjournment of the board Messrs. Charles Acker and Howard Mark- ward, the recently elected commissioners, who succeed Messrs. M. V. Tierney and George N. Walker, took the oath of office. The new board of town commissioners was then organized as follow L. K. Miller, president; J. A. Aman, Clarence Wilson, Howard Markward and Charles Acker, and W. H. Richardson, treasurer. Arthur Carr was appointed clerk of the board and also police magistrate for the ensuing year. Much interest is manifested here over a rumor to the effect that a large body of troops will be mobilized during the next few days near this village. It has been learned upon good authority that the placa of encampment will be about half a mile from Hyattsville, upon the old Crawford estate, and part of the Highland property. Two hundred men, residents of Hyatts- ville and the vicinity, have volunteered their services to Governor Lownd: They have been directed by Adjutant General Wilmer to hold themselves in readiness in case of a second call for volunteers. The men will probably be formed in panies: and instructed in military tactics, oe Michael Riley, who says he lives in Richmond, called at the house of Policemron Hester last night and asked for food. In- stead of getting food he got arrested, and now he is spending a month on the farm. are A man may talk of disdaining Physical strength and prowess until Doomsday, the fact remains that he caunot look at a picture of an old-time knight, magnifi- cent in his physical pro- ions, dauntless in physical courage, and armed, ready and eager for a contest to the death with any comer, without a thrill va of admiration, Mental superior- NY ity is desirable and admirable, but is the “game worth the can- dle,” when it is won at the ex- ense of phys- ical health and strength ? The unhealthy man may gain the pity and even the admiration of men and women, but it is a question whether such a man ever thoroughly gains their respect. The man whose arteries bound with the tich, red blood of health carries with him a force and an intensity that command re- spect, even though he be slightly inferi mentally to the weak, nervous man. While no medicine in the world will add an inch to a man’s stature, there is one famous medicine that will fill the veins and arte- Ties with the rich, red, bounding blood of rfect health. It is Dr. Pierce’s Golden ledical Discovery. It is the great blood- maker and blood-purifier. When the blood is pure and rich and red and plenty, and filled with the life-giving elements that nourish every tissue of the body, it is im- possible for a man to suffer from ill-health of any description. When every little blood-vessel in the lungs quivers with the tush of healthy blood, it is im ‘ible to have unhealthy lungs. When the walls of the stomach are nourished with healthy blood, dyspepsia and indigestion are im- possibilities. When the liver is supplied with healthy blood it is bound to be active The skin that is nourished with healthy blood will be clear and fresh and glow with health, “Discovery ’” is sold by druggists. Mr. Isaac E. Downs, of Spring Valley, Rock- land Co., N. ¥., writes: “For three years I suf fered from that terrible disease, consumption, had wasted away to a skeleton. To-day I tin the scales at 187, aud am well aud strong. The *Golden Medical Discovery’ cured me.”
