hEV. lhOMAS BOW MAN, IL. u. LII. u. +,
SENIOR BISHOP. WHO CALLED THE GENERAL
CONFERENCE OF THE METHODIST CHURCH,
NOW IN SESSION IN NEW YORK, TO ORDER.
Thomas Bowman, Senior Bishop of the
Methodist Episcopal church, was born near
Berwick, Columbia county, Pennsylvania,
July, 1917. Great attention was given to
his early training. He was prepared for
college at the Wilbraham Academy, Massa-
chusetts, and at Cazenovia, N. Y. While in
the last named of these institutions he
joined the church. This was on Jan. |, 1888
About four years and half afterward he was
graduated at Dickinson College He then read
law for about year, but his bias toward
the ministry was not to be overcome, and in
July, 1888, he received a license to preach.
This was followed by his engagement as
agent foe the Pennsylvania Colonization So
ciety, which lasted oIfs year, and gave him
the opportunity of frequently speaking in
public and OF experiencing that variety of
life incidental to extensive travel which is
of particular value to the cultured young
man. His first position in the ministry was
in 1889, when he was admitted to be mem
Der of the Baltimore Conference and
received Ian an appointment; From
1910 to 1S49 he taught the gram
mar school in Dickinson College, an engage
ment which he was obliged to give up on
account of declining health. During the
next five years he was so far broken down
in physical condition that he was numbered
among the superannuated ministers Of his
conference; but in 1913 began work once
more, by accepting the appointment of Pro-
fessor in Dickinson Seminary, Williamsport,
Pa. Bishop Bowman presided over this
seat of learning ten years, and to him is
largely due its successful organization and
subsequent prosperity. In 1883 he was
transferred to Lewisburgh, Pa, and in the
same year was elected President of
the Indiana Asbury University. He &C
cepted this position, and held it from
1859 to 1872. when he was elected
Bishop. In 1864 and 1865 he was Chaplain
of the United States Senate, and in the
summer of 1864 attended the British Yves
leyan Conference, as a delegate appointed
by the General Conference of his church.
He was a member of the General Confer
ence of 1868 and 1872. Since his election as
Bishop, DIR. Bowman has visited every part
of the United States in the discharge of the
duties of his office. He is a man much
beloved, gentle and refined and beautiful in
character. His sermons are thoughtful,
clear and chaste in style, sublime in their
subjects and delivered with easy grace and
quiet, modest power. Bishop Bowman is a
superior scholar. His degree of D. D. was
conferred upon him by the Ohio Wesleyan
University in 1858, and that of Doctor of
Laws, by Dickinson College, in 1872.

Alderman Lynch believed the law has
been violated from day to day by the
poundmaster and his subordinates.
Charges OF $3.50 for keeping q cow one day
in the pound had been extorted against
| the law.
Captain Shepherd made an explanation
| that his charges were those OF the ordi-
nance and protested against the ignominy
he has endured ii fulfilling his duties. The
cattle are fed vice a day.
An instance WIS given where a cow had
been in the pound for three hours and the
owner had been charged So for the deten-
tion.
Mr.. Nichols had been pestered for a long
time keepiag boys out vi his stable prevent
ing them from running of his COW. Hehad
had O. COW taken to the pound one day.
He offered the legal fee Of $1.50 and was
told he would have to pay $3.50 although
the cow was only one day 10. The cow
never saw feed of any kind. He refused 60
pay the charge aud the COW is there yet.
he asked what he should do.
Alderman Pinkham declared that on
Thursday last he had $15 worth of goods
spoiled by stray cows that he had left in
the alley. There we're three stray COWS
taken by the tloundmaster from his place
on Friday night and he protested against
feeding other persons cows.
Alderman Lynch Insisted the law had
been abused. Cows had been driven in
from outside tbs city limits and i~mpounded.
Captain Shepherd had no right to hire
boys to assist him and it was simply teach
ing those children bad habits.
Alderman Evans moved that as the feel
ing was general that the Captain had over
stepped his limits, he be requested to re-
sign.
The chair thought that such action would
be arb trary and the Captain should be
given notice of the Councils intention.
Alderman Lynch felt that there would he
a certain amount OF hardship in the action
proposed. What he objected to is the use
Of boys in driving in cows.
alderman Pinkham protested that no
matter who was put in the place OF pound
mister the same complaint would come up
If he performed his duty.
The ayes and noes were called and the
| vote WAS evenly divided. The chair voted
aye after explaining his reasons which
were thtt the community seemed to de-
mand a change, though he thought the
captain should be heard in his own de-
fence.

"M4GINNES OF MONTANA"
The Major Que of the Survivors of the
Immortal Charge at Gettysburg.

From the St. Paul ''Pioneer Press:
Hon. Martin Maginnis came down from
Montana yesterday and took apartments
at the Ryan. Mr.. Maginnis was elected
delegate to Congress four times on the
Democratic ticket, and is loath to concede
that the territory has a Republican ma
~jority. A Republica delegate and Repub-
ican legislature were chosen this year by
about 5000 majority, but MIR. Maginnis
attributes this to q general dissatisfaction
among the Democrats. He thinks it prob.
able that the territory will be made q state
by thepresent Congress. They have had a
season OF material prosperity in Montana
as far as the three great pursuits Of the
territory, mining, stock raising and agri-
culture are concerned.
1t was in the st. Louis convention that
Major Maginnis made a national reputa-
ton. When the convention was organized
Mr.. Maginnis wanted to present q resolu-
ton. Temporary Chairman White shouted
at the Montana man: Your name and
state" 'She clarion tones OF the major
rang out, "Maginnis, of Montana" The
vast Gro Nd took up the cry and the words
Maginnis, of Montana, echoed from gallery
to gallery. When Dan Doherty nominated
Cleveland, and the bosses and officeholders
had howled themselves hoarse the roll of
states were called for seconds. The con-
y~ention listened to prosy speeches, and
| wearied of bearing Cleveland alluded to as
that matchless leader, Grover Cleveland, !"
while alleged orators spouted.
The territories were reached, and when
| Montana was reached one vast shout that
fairly shook the building went up for "Ma-
ginnis OF Montana" MOI would the as
sembly be appeased until the fiery poll
tician mounted d chair and delivered the
best one of the seconding speeches OF the
day. Then began inquiring who he was,
| and it was then told that he was one ofthe
survivors of that immortal charge of the
| First Minnesota volunteers at the battle
| of Gettysburg, and a man who had an hon
orabIe and useful career.

ChicagO's Fearful Mill Explosion Thought
to Have Been Caused by Dust.
CHICAGO. Dec. ia battalion OF twenty
fremen and over 100 volunteers are at
work clearing away the ruin of last nights
explosion. Earnest Casper, one of the
three known to be dead, was at work with
the engine cupola at the time. The engine
was lifted almost entire and thrown a dis
tance Of sixty feet upon the south side oil
the street. The mutilated form of Casper
is somewhere under the wreck.
John Christensen, the kiln man, was the
second known victim. Ills body has not
been found.
Charles Miller, the engineers body,is also
buried under the wreck.
The proprietor and manager of the mill
were on the ground early this morning, but
have been unable to learn positively the
cause of the explosion. Each thinks oat
meal dust may have been the cause, but
theory be accepted. No other reasonable
explanation is offered, however. Plate
glass was shattered and buildings shaken a
mile away.
The loss is $150,O00.
A body, supposed to be that of engineer
Miller was unearthed at IL O'Clock. 1t was
badly burned and mangled. 1t had been
thrown d considerable distance.
The boilers were uncovered and found in
tact, SO the explosion is thought for a
certainty to nave been caused by mill
dust. The police say no dynamite was
used.
Later-The body Of Ernest Casper has
been dug out OF the ruins.

In Annual Session at st. Louis-The Re-
port of President Gompers.
ST. LOUIS, December 1.-The annual
convention OF the American Federation OF
Labor met here this afternoon. After an
address OF welcome and d reply, a recess
was taken, pending the report OF the Gre
dentials committee.
After a report of the committee on rules,
President Gompers read his report, which
was quite lengthy. He dealt with especial
emphasis upon the necessity for a reduc-
ton in the hours OF labor, and urged that
the subject OF the assessment, not exceed.
ing 5 cents per week, to aid the utilization
of organizations engaged in strikes, be kept
constantly before the members. This
proposition was defeated when last sub
mitted.
Referring to strikes President Gompers
condemned men who were continually de-
crying them. Strikes were notlooked upon
with pleasure, but to know when, to strike
and particularly when not to strike, is a
science not yet fully understood. After
the announcement of the standing com
mittees, the convention %aniourned to 8 a.
IN. tomorrow.
