The Methodist COnfersnce-An Address
Read From the Bishops.
PHILADELPHIA, May 5.-The General con-
ference of the Methodist Episcopal church
was opened this morning With the usual de-
votionaI exercises. Bishop Andrews pre-
sided. After the announcement of the
various committees several resolutions were
offered, among which was one to provide
for the support of itinerary preachers and
their families by means of drafts upon the
surplus fond of the book concern. Rev. O.
G. McColic msvsd that May be appointed
as the date for the election of bishops and
other general conference ofacsrs. An ex-
cited discussion followed, maRy, members
wishing to have the election proceeded with
at once to ohViate what they termed '1og
rolling and ''Wire pulling" Mr.. Hatfield
was especially vehement In his dsnunciation
of anything like "electioneering'' and said
that tho newspaper were already full of the
slang of the political conventions regarding
the methods of the conference. The address
of the bishops was then read. It reeouRted
briefly the history of Methodism
in this country, the prosperous growth of
the book concern, the good work done by
the Methodist colleges and universities dur
ing the past year and dwslt at length on the
efforts being made in the cause of better ed
ucation in the South The temperance
question was brisay alluded to and increased
stripgeney in the laws relating to divorce
was recommended. A resolution TO appoint
special committee of twenty-five to consid-
er the centennial celebration to be held at
Baltimore in December, 1884, was adopted
and the conference then adjourned until to-
morrow morning.

Illinois,

Wind and RAMA sudden sweep OF a
Cyclone.
Rock ISLAND, May 5.-Rain has been
falling steadily here for three days past and
about 4:3O this afternoon the storm culmi-
mated in cyclone. There had been a mo-
mentary calm, when suddenly there was a
crash of thunder, blaze of lightning, a
mighty whirl and all was over. The cyclone
struck the lower end of the town, demolish-
ing all the structures in space three thous-
and yards in length from Sixth to Ninth
avenues. 1t is miracle that many lives were
not sacrificed. There were five
persons seriously injured, but the confusion
was SO great after the shock
that their names were not learned. Over
two dezen barns were torn away and the
timbers carried quarter of mile. Trees
of twelve years. growth were uprootsd and
every tree near the track of the cyclone was
stripped of its branches and leaves. Six
frame houses at some distance were unroofed
and the fair grounds have been stripped of
every vestigs of building and fence. The
destruction of property is large, bat cannot
yet be accurately estimated. All the boats
on the river we're driven from Illinois to the
Iowa side. At Davenport the cyclone de-
molished several buildings in the end of the
town and a man and a boy were killed.

Next morning at daylight rebel was
caught just outside the lines. One of the
two shells thrown by the Sphinx killed his
father. BE vowed to avenge his death. and
with the permission of the sheikh of his
tribe he went forth armed with shield and
spear, across the shadows at midnight. He
was told to take life for life if he could, but
in any case to return with some account of
the number and composition Of the Egypt
ian force. He was discovered by q small
party of Egyptians, some of whom fed,
while their comrades, looking at the intruder,
fred on him and retired. Charging with the
spear, the boy Che is only sixteen years old
wounded one Of his assailants in the hand
but there were too many for him. Receiv-
ing bayonet wound in his side, another in
tae thigh and third ON the head, he was
overpowered, and with his hands tied behind
him he was taken into camp.
I saw him shortly after his capture. He
threw himself on the sand. He wept not in
fright, but in sheer savage rage. He cursed
Baker Pasha, cursed his own captors, cursed
the Egyptian army, spat at the sentries and
others within reach of him, and abused in
the foulest language all their relatives-par-
ticularly their sisters, wives, mothers-even
to the remotest generation. "How many
have You in your encampment 2" was asked,
but Omar-that was the boys name-replied
that he would rather have his tongue cut out
than give the information. The reader will
appreciate Omar's courage if he will bear in
mind that the prisoner, naturally judging
from the practice of the savage life, which is
the only life he knows, must have expected
not merely death, but torture, the sequel
to his obstinacy. He believes his wounds are
mortal, bat this alone does not trouble him
much, for he tells as that Osmau Digma
promised him comfortable quarters in para
disc. What does trouble him is the prospect
of entering paradise without the prestige of
man killer and the savage young beast has
had the audacity to request, as a personal
favor, that before breathing his last he should
be permitted to wash his spear in the blood
of some Egyptian "pig." 'sThen," said
Omar, after pause, 81 shall die happy"
His prayer has not been granted and Omar
still lives. He frankly declares that If he
survives, and is released, he will kill some
body. think General Baker rather wastes
his sympathy upon this bloodthirsty invalid
Poor boy" said the general, in his kindly
way, 81 am sorry he has been cut about SO
shall be glad if he gets around he must
be nursed properly" And 1 am glad to say
no ferocious young cub has ever been SO
soothingiy coddled and cotton-wooled as our
tiger-cat of captive. In the hospital tent
Omar has made his first acquaintance with
pure water, cooked food, soft pillow and
white sheets.
