FIGHT IN THE CHURCH.

Not exactly a sanguinary affair, but of
ideas. Of convictions or of prejudices, or of
something of that character is now going
on in the Methodist church which prom
ises to make the liveliest controversy ever
experienced by that denomination since
the time when it was divided by the slav-
cry question. 1t is all whether women
shall be elected lay delegates 10 the gen
eral conference, and a vote is being taken
on the proposition 10y all the Methodist
Episcopal congregations in the country
The First NJ +. church will have Il ballot
on Thursday afternoon between the hours
of and 6 o'clock, and every member is
expected TO come and cast his or her bal
lot The admission of women to the
general conference makes them eligi BILE
to become preachers and bishops and edi-
tors of church organs, etc. If the Metho-
dist church should thus adopt a Congre-
gational or Republican rule. to be consist
ent, they would have to abolish the Office
of bishop and other Episcopal features, to
be consistent. There is another view OF
the case. The women are in the majority
in the chuIch, which being the case, why
shouldn't they run it, Then arises the
question, with women at the helm and in
the pulpit, wouldn't the men, we mean
the average self-reliant element simply
desert the church and leave it to become a
a kind of female force. Upon the whole
we are inclined to think that the MethO-
dist are facing a rather serious problem.

n1NNEHA SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION.


To the Editor Of the Eagle
The annual meeting of the Minnehs
Township Sunday School convention,
which met at Settler Springs church Sat
urday, Nov. p, was well attended and
proved very interesting meeting. The
| convention was opened. and the devotional
exercises were conducted, by ID. McCor-
mick
The question, How to induce scholars TO
study the lesson at homer" was opened by
o g. Smith. The points brought out by
Mr.. Smith and others who discussed the
question, were that the teacher himself
should be prepared. and should take an IN
terest in the lesson and class.
Rev w. | Miller discussed the subject.
Relation of the Sunday school 10 the
church." which was followed by a lively
discussion on the part OF the members
which brought out the points that the
sunday school is the nursery of the church
the training place for other church
work, and where the work Of the church l.
nurtured and cared for.
The height Of interest was reached over
the next subject-''Sunday school music, .
opened by :. y. Bridgeman. and discussed
by everybody. In opening, Mr.. Bridge
man called attention 10 the fact that many
persons. especially the young, are often
attracted to the Sunday school by the
mus C. and be urged that special attention
DE paid TO this part of Sunday school
work. He said that the voice fur
nished the best music for the
Sunday school. and should be
cultivated, especially IN the young
He also recommended the use Of the violin,
cornet or other musical instruments In
connection with the organ, which was ob-
jected to by some, and in the discussion
which followed it was shown that those
who objected were decidedly III the minor
ity.
II was nearly o'clock when the COnven-
ton was dismissed for dinner. which was
enjoyed quite as well as the program,
which had just closed
At o'clock they were called TO order by
the conductor, ID. Mccormick. and after
devotional exercises the question, Why
are so many out of the sunday schoOlE'
was opened by w. L. Apling and in the
discussion which followed were given
many reasons. the leading ones being q
lack Of interest on the part OF Sunday
school workers, because parents did not
take interest enough in themselves TO go,
and because of other places being more at
tractive After this Rev. j. c. Seton
handled the subject, How to study the
Bible" in a manner which pleased every
body. This was followed by a question
box in charge of W. L. DETROIT. a large
number of questions were asked Mr. De
Croft. which were well answered by him.
Alta late hour the convention adjourned,
everybody agreeing that it was success
in all that the word implies. y. y. L.

WICHITA WAKES
Some Factors and Instances Which People are
Motto M.

Motto ng.
What is the matter with Wichita this
week. This is not the holiday season, or
least it seems early for that trade to be set
ting in, Yet the streets are more brisk than
for months. OF course everybody has
commenced TO realize that Wichita is ser
enely on top and that which her people al
ways knew is being more fully realized by
not only surrounding towns but by bust
ness men everywhere. Wichita is the hub
and center of trade in the Arkansas valley.
But the force of that realization and its
lasting benefits are yet to come Long af
ter Kansas City's business men realized
that their town had become the business
center of the Missouri river and Of eastern
Kansas, Leaveuworth, AtchisOn and Law
renee would not cOncede the fact. Yet
when once the fact was granted there was
left only plain sailing for the center at the
Kaws mouth, not only, but the interest
which before had antagonized became her
aids and auxilliaries. Nothing has occurred
of late that 50 plainly demonstrated Wich-
ita's position in the southwest as the call
upon her banks and the response by her
banking institutions, within the last two
weeks, to the banks of the surrounding
towns for currency TO reinforce them at a
time when a crash was threatening in New
York. The banks of no other city in Kan
sas could have done this and held on to
reserve sufficient to take care of them
selves. The crash that was expected didn't
come, and if it had it might
not have affected the cities of
the west, but in any event
Wichita's banking institutions would
have been ready for it, Not only that, but
they were in position to have gone to the
aid of any institution that had sound Sc
curities or collaterals to offer
The railroads, in the new train service
that is being now supplied, and which has
been materially increased within week,
are but recognizing what everybody is fast
finding out, and the fact of the meeting of
traffic managers and freight agents which
is called for next Thursday at Wichita is
but an additional substantial factor of the
city's increasing Importance
Wichita is becoming more solidly en-
trenched in her position as the banking
and trade center, as the manufacturing
packing center and as the grain, live stock
and railway center of Southern Kansas
