The Centennial Conference of the Metho
dist Episcopal Church, now in session in
Baltimore city, is notable event in the his
tory of that body of Christians. The con-
ference, which will be composed ofabout 500
delegates, will represent all branches of
Methodism in this country except non-episco-
pal, such as the Methodist Protestant Church.
The assemblage being centennial celebration
ofthe organization of the Methodist Episco-
pal Church, the Methodist Protestant Church,
which does not adhere to the episcopacy, will
not participate in the proceedings of the
body, though that church will send four of
its ablest members as frateInal delegates
The conference, although a delegated body,
rules for the government of the church, like
general conference The history of the
church for the hundred years of its existence,
will be set forth by able preachers, and the
occasion, which will bring together Melho-
dists from all parts of the country, will re-
semble great "love.feast," more than any
thing else. The conference will last for one
week.
Preliminary exercises were held Tuesday
night in the First Methodist Episcopal
Church. Addresses were delivered by Mr.. G..
III. Hunt, of the committee on entertainment,
and by Bishop Andrews, who made the adj
dress of welcome, to which the Rev. ]. B.

was held. is the successor of that which wor-
shipped in Lovely Lane meeting house, in
which the Christmas conference was held in
1884. The regular meetings are held in
Mount Vernon NJ. E. Church. The Bishops
present are Bowman Foster, Andrews,
Hurst Walden and Fowler of the M. E.
Church Bishops Wilson and Cranberry, OF
the NJ E. Church South; Bishop Campbell
of the African M. E. Church Bishop Beebe,

Others. Among the delegates are some OF
the best orators and essayists in the Metho.
dist connection.
Methodism was first introduced in America
about the year 1869, by Rev. Robert Straw
bridge, local preacher from Ireland The
first native American Methodist preacher was
Rev. Richard Owen, of Baltimore county
who was converted under the ministry of Mr.
Strawbridge. The first native of American
itinerant preacher was Rev. William Wat.
tiers, who also came from Baltimore county
The first Methodist conference in America
was held on the 25th of May, 1773 in Phila.
delphia, and the first general conference was
held in the city of Baltimore, December 25th
1854, which was known as the Christmas
conference, and at which the Methodist
Episcopal Church was organized. Thomas
Coke and Francis Asbury were the first
bishops of the NJ E. Church.
The Methodists of Baltimore have thrown
open their doors for the entertainment OF
their brethren. The conference will be the
greatest event that has eyer occurred in
the history of Methodism in this country or
perhaps in the world.
