THE AFRICAN Nj. T.. CONFERENCE.


Heated Debate Over the Union BE.
tween the Canada and West Indian
Church.
INDIANAPOLIS. ND, May 9.-Bishop Waymas
presided over yesterdays session Of the African
Methodist Episcopal conference, and the follow
ing officers were selected: Principal secretary, NJ.
E. Brant, Alabama conference; assistant, I. II.
Jackson, W1lberforce University, Ohio; recorder,
c. Pierce Nelson, Columbia Is. CO. conference; STA
tstical secretary, j. Ii. Collette, Baltimore con-
ference; assistant, ID. A. jackson, Tennessee con-
ference; reading, e. A. Spurry Pittsburgh engroSS-
ing clerk, A.W. Upshaw, New England conference.
Rev. E w. stewart, OF Baltimore, introduced
q series OF resolutions recitlng that final procla-
nation has been made OF the accomplishment OF
the union, between the African Methodist Episco-
pal church OF Canada and the West Indies; that
Bishop Disney has been fully recognized by the
bishops OF the African Methodist Episcopal church;
therefore the union OF the two bodies mas been sat-
isfactorily accomplished and this conference
pledges itself to stand by this action. This Goa
1ition, while 1t has been nominally accomplished,
has caused q protest from some OF the Canadian
and West Indian representatives and 1t is under
stood that the matter has already been carried
into the courts. The presentation OF the resolu-
lions precipitated IA somewhat excited debate,
but no conclusion was reached and they were laid
aside informally. The board OF bishops then an
nounced the names OF members comprising thir-
teen OF the COMMITTEES OF the conference.

Will 1855 he a Year Of War,


From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The present year is the NTH year of modern
times In which the aggregate OF the figures is
twenty-five, and there will be but five more years
In which such a combination is possible prior to
the year 269S. Probably but few have ever heard
Of the old prophecy, which runs az follows:
In every future year Of our Lord,
When the sum Of the figures In twenty five.
Some warlike kingdom will draw the sword
Bu4 peaceful nations in peace shall thrive
Students OF modern history will readily recall
how faithfully this prophecy has been fulnlied In
the four previous years TO which IL applied. In
1899 Russia Denmark, and Poland formed the
coalition against sweden, which tnaugurated the
great war that ended in the disastrous defeat OF
Charles XII at PultOwa. The year 1850 will ever
be memorable on account OF the breaking out OF
the French Revolution. The year 17oS witnessed
the campaign OF Bonaparte In Egypt and the for
nation OF the second European coalition against
France. In 1879 war broke out between England
and Afghanistan, followed by the invasion OF the
latter country by British troops. In what man.
mer the prediction is to be verified in 1888 re-
mains yet TO be seen but the present condition OF
Europe seems to promise an abundant fulnliment
OF the prophecy.

PROGRESS OF THE PAVING.
A Part Of the Asphalt on Broughtor
street to be Relaid.

A Part of the Asphalt on Broughton
street to be Relaid.
The work of laying the granite base for
the asphalt pavement on Liberty street has
begun at West Broad and Liberty streets
and force is engaged in grading on the
east end of Liberty street.
The work of putting the finishing course
on the south side of Broughton street be-
tween Alb rcorn and Habersham street is
in progress
Alderman d. r. Thomas, chairman Of
the street and lane commit OF council was
asked last night for lis opinion of the quail
ity Of the pavement. He said that the com
mittee has not passed upon it yet. He said,
however, that he understands that the COM
pany itself is not satisfied with he finishing
course that il has laid on Broughton street
between Abercorn and HaberSham streets,
and will remove il and lay it over again.
Mr.. Thomas was asked what effect the
sprinkling of the asphalt streets has on the
asphalt. and if it is dsleterious 10 it. He
could only say that he had inquired of the
company which laid the Broughton, Bull
and Congress street asphalt pavements, and
they had written 10 him that wettlng will
not injure it, Since then, however, owing
to the complaints Of pedestrians, he
has instructed the street sprinklers
c1piously as they formerly did. The
asphalt streets are swept with the machine
on Tuesday aud Friday nights, at which
time the streets are not wet except when
thev are very dry, and on Wednesday and
Saturday mornings the street force is in
creased for hand sweeping and cleaning OF
crossings
