STOCKTON, May 18.—The local Meth- cdist young people and members of their church organization.the Epworth League, have been very active in entertaining the visitors and making practical manifesta- tion of the fraternal spirit. As the Cen- tral Methodist Episcopal Church is the largest in the city, this spirit has con- tributed not a little to lightening the bur- dens of the 1990 committee, There is much talk of the desirability of the merging of the two societies, but many of the Methodists oppose it upon the ground that it might impair the denominational enthusiasm, or rather divide the affec~ tions of the young Methodists. The va- rious denominational rallies this evening would indicate that this opinfon is at least subject to questiun, as the sect fe- ver and enthusiasm was quite evident at the meetings. It is a very quiet crowd. Although it is estimated that there are 2000 here, were it not for the decorations about town the presence of visitors would not | be noted except betw. the sessions of the convention, when they go to and fro over the city. However, it has been a busy day and the people will probably see more of them to-morrow. As usual the women folk predominate 3 to 1 in the throng. The delegates from Santa Ana to-day distributed badges bearing the words “Santa Ana 1901."” There is no ODEOSiUon to the choice of Santa Ama for the con- vention city next year. Fresno is said to desire the convention for 1302, but there | has been little talk upon that subject yet. Several Chinese are delegates to the con- vention. Rev. Soo Hoo Nam Art repre- sents the Chinese Presbyterian Society of San Praneisco, and Chin Quang, Hong Chock and Dr. C. M. Lee are from the Congregational Society of the same city.
