There have been three flocrs built in it since the station was completed about ten years ago, and in every case the heavy timber rottea away with remarkable rapidity. Chief Wood says it was due to the lack of ventilation, and to the fact that the floor was washed off so often. This time the ground underneath has been excavated for ventilation, and it is thought the new floor will be more eubstantial than its three predi- cessors, { f-¥ Mayfield, the home of the ‘Lyons’ quintettes,’’has now come to the front with a three-eyed-kitten.

Thomp- son, Reed and Henderson Filled That Pulpit YesterJay—A Great Day, Indeed Appointments Will be Made To- night—The Bishop Will Probably Preach. Sunday was the greatest day in this city, for the church people, in the whole of its history. Strangers who had been all the week gathering in the city, from far and near, re- mained over Sunday. ‘The city was full of ministers consequent of their attendance upon the annual confer- ence. Besides our city people had determined to turn out on that day, as it is usually the banver day in every city if a conference or religious organization of any kiod happens to be in session at the time. The African Methodist Episcopal church annual conference for West Kentucky had been in session since last Wednesday morning at the A. M. E. church, corner Seventh and Obio streets. Its sessions have been most pleasant, interesting and highly instructive. Every pew at each ses- sion bas been filled, not only by members of the conference, but vis- itors and friends by the hundreds. This session of the annual confer: ence in our city will be long remem- bered, not more for the good it bas done and the invaluable knowledge it will leave us, than the ties of lasting friendship it has made.

Today was the last day’s session of the 19th annual conference of the A. M. E, church for West Kentucky. The appointments will be read pub- licly tonight when the conference, which has been ia session for the past six days comes toa close aflera busy and most profitable session, There will be preaching.
