eral Conference board of claimants,
by Mrs. D. Willis James, of New
York City. The announcement
caused a demonstration!
Never before in the history of
Methodism had such a large amount
been left by an individual to the
church,
Announcement was also made to
day that William Jennings Bryan,
former Secretary of State, had ac

general conference and would lec

anniversary of the Church Témper

the clergy to abstain from the use of
tobacco.
That Methodism should make a
clear statement in the campaign
against the drug habit and the social
evil and should follow the same with
active work to eliminate both, was
proposed in a resolution offered at tha
general conference today by A, W.

national law against the sale of drugs
and spoke of the illicit sales that are
made in all parts of the United

has made in the handling of the social
evil was also touched on by Mr. Hu-‘

today, when the murder case against
him came up for the third trial. At
torneys for Montford asked for the
change, on the ground that he could

at Wrightsville, Johnson County, on
the third Monday in June, unless
counsel agrees on some other date.
This case has been discussed so
thoroughly in this county and all evi
