One of tho most interesting features of the day’s exercises was the reading of the report of the corresponging secretary. It showed wonderful progress in every lino of the work. Ihero are more than S,000 chapters now in existerce, & growth of over 8,000 in_one year. Six com- mittees were appointed to look after the dif- forent departments of the league work, as follows: Comunittees ou literature, finunc resolutious, local coustitutions, ec relations and credentials. These committees will report the results of their deliberations this morning. Almost the cniire day was occupied in the discussion of 4 memorial which had been pre pared by & committen appointed for the pur- , and was intended 1o be presented to the nutional conference at its meeting next Tho Epworth league has recognized by the Methodist week in Omaha, never been church as a part of the church, and as tho memoriai was a formal means of calling the attention of the couference to the existence of such a body, and of stating the purposes of the organization and the powers il was expected to exercise, the wording of the memorial provoked a lone and animated discussion. Some of tne delegates ‘thought the leaguo ought to retain most of the rightsit now has 5o far as self governmant is concerned, and were opposed to the relogating of any consideravle amount of power to the Uisbops or the conference. They wanted to keep 1t a strictly democratio organization, while others, on tho other hand, thought it would be a waste of |time for the leugue to present itself to the conference for recognition as a part of tho body politic and au the ssme time keep in ils own hands tho entire right of wovernment. Between these “is to be heid here May 10. two extremes thero was a variety of opinions which was limited only by the . number of declegates present. Upon this harp of forty-turco strings the bourd played all day long, and when the hour of adjournment cumo in the evening, tho tune was oot yet played. During the dis- cussion the speakers waxed very warm on o number of occasious, although the best of feeling was manifested through- out. Cnairman Fitzgeraid showed remark avleskillus a purliamentarian, although his duties were frequentiy anything but easy, and he won a great many compliments from those preseat on account of the adroit way in whicn he poured oil ou the waters which scemed likely to becomo troubled. At the hour of adjournment the memorial was stil the topic of aiscus- sion, sud it was decided 10 postponc toe re- mainder of the discussion urtil this morning atv b o'clock, when the business of the con- vention will be resumed. It was decided to hold a grand interna- tional convention of Xpworth leagues a yeor from next July, in Cleveland, O.. to include the soutn and Canada, veither of which are represented to auy great extentin the con- vention now being held. Oue interesting fact in connection with the proposed meeting is that it will be hold in the Epworth Memorial church, & magniticent oulldiug erected on tho site of an old church in which the first Epworth ieague wus organized twenty-threo years azo, A committee on fraternal rela- tions was appointed for the purpose of prompting friendly feclings between the league auy any other young people's so- cloties that may meet in conventions in the future. Tho business of the convention will bo resumed this morning and will last today and provably through tomorrow. Tendered a Reception In the evening a reception was given the delegates to the convention by the members of the four Epworth leagues of the city. The early part of tho evening was occuplea in ‘addresses, Masonic Temple boing well filled with the entertainers and the eutertained.

Pavi, Minn., April 25, —A special from Winuipog, Man., says: Reports of the terri- ble storm are just coming in. Fully twenty miles of the Canadian Pacific wire west of here has been blown aimost out of tho prov- ince. Oue official says 1t was carried lnto Dakota. The Jead body of George E. Sunby, a black- smith living near Lake Manitobu, Who was journeying there, was found near 'Reaburn, twenty miles west of hero, this morning. In Winniveg people were blown off of side- walks in trying to navigato the streets. It was 1impossible tosee two feot ahead on the prairie. Fear 13 felt for the safety of 7essels on Lake Superior. Before the storm broke out in its awfullest fury one vessel was seventy miles out, unable to mako tho harbor on account of ica. Itis believed the vessels could not pos- sibly havo weatherd tho storm.

When, this spring, the Cana- dian government re-imposed tolls on Amerjcan ssels puiinf these canuls the attention of Secretary Blaine was brought to the matter by Secretary Thompson of the Duluth Cham- ber of Commerce, and by a representative of the Oswego Boara of Trade, and_retaliatory measures by chargiog toll on all Canadian vessels passing the (Great Sault canal into Lake Superior were proposed. Secrotary Blaine was at once interested iu_tho matter, and after a number of conferences has come to the conclusion to ut once tlake steps toward inaugurating a system of tolls, Ina few days the matter will probably be made public from Washington. ——— STARVING MEXICANS.

In a dining room an imposing dignity is the oraer of the day. Oak is the standurd favor ite for furnishing diciog rooms, but mahog- a0y 15 the more clegnal and expeusive furni- ture. Aun effort nas been made o briug into use the beautiful, carved hizh-backed chairs of tho Henaissance, with tho lovely old faded coverings of tapestry, or cise the tew leather covering, in which the wrone side of the leather is turned out, and looks like ocoze. Tho backs are too high, however, aud interfere with tho service, causing all sorts of aire mishaps to guests, dishes anu waiters, and in consequenco the high-backed chairs aro relegated to library and ball. Rooms aro rarely furnished in a single color now, although one color usually predomin- ates. Contrasts are pleasanter, and loss monotonous. Take, for instance, a room that is 10 bo in white and gold. In the old days it would bave been white and gold straight through, with aa indescribabiy chilly, bar offect. Now the woodwork is made white aud gold,tue ceiling is decorated in white and old, and, also, the walls, but in the lattor there aro paneis lot in of Some very delicate shada of blue in silk or satin damask, and again on tnis thero may bea composition in whito and gold, leaving ouly a six or eight inch margin of the bluo. Here is a hint in_regard to the prevention of dust that is well worth the attention of housekeepers. Duteh artists of old, who had a perfect terror of dust, always choso, if nossible, to havo their studios in close prox- imity to'a canal. Ifthis was not practicable they got over the difliculty by keeping a large tub of water in theit studios, most of the dust flying about the room being caught in this receptacle. The neighborhood of a river, the substitute for tha Dutch canal, may not always be desirablo at the preseit time, but a bowl of water, especially in these days, when we rejoice in any excuse for mul tiplying the bric-a-brac in our rcoms, is within overybody’s reach. Tho furmshing of bedrooms has und ergono 8 marked change. Everything must be lfght aud daioty and admit of easy cleaning to be in good taste. Carpots are moro generally used then rugs, The Empire and Louis styles aro used in furnishing. The hangings are inexpensive and dainty. The prefer- ence in these is given to tne pretty I'rench cretonnes and chintzes, and where there are only two windows in o room the window, door and bed draperies are alike. The Em. pire style commends itself more highly for uso in a bedroom, for there is a chaste beauty about 1t that the more ornate French and clumsy Englisn lack. Next to that the prettiest furniture comes in the Louis 1V style. —————— FROM 'ROUND ABOUT A culf with three legs is Hampton's chief curiosity just now. county fair will be held Septem- ) ana 30.
