WOMEN AS DELEGATES.
The Subject Debated in the Gen.
trail II. E. Church.

The regular business meeting of the Chris
tian Endeavor Society was held last night in
the Central Methodist Episcopal Church on
Mission street, near Sixth. The President,
r. Y. Watt presided.
After routine business had been transacted
a debate was announced upon the subject,
" Resolved. that women shall be admitted
as delegates to General Conference" The
affirmative was supported by C. A. Parmel-
lee and Mrs. t. w. Nowlin. and the mega
tive by F. II. Jackson ard Miss NJ. Mering.
The subject originated in the eXtraordi-
nary interest manifested at the last general
conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church in the attendance of five women as
delegates, the presence of the fair sex Icing
unknown up to that time at those assemblies
since the birth OF the church century ago.
Discussion over the matter occupied a week S
time at the conference, and 1t resulted in
ordering a vote on whether women should
be admitted as delegates, the voting to be
confined to all mem berS, aged 81 years and
over, of the church in the United States and
to take place in October and November Of
this year.
Voters have not betrayed that interest in
the matter which was anticipated, and at
Grace Church in the Mission, although there
are 500 members, yet only So votes were
cast The members of the Central Church
will assemble at the polls on the last Friday
in this month to cast their votes.
The Chairman nanred the following as
judges of the debate: Mrs. William Alb
bott, DIR. E. E. Kelly and c. A. Spelling.
The arguments advanced by the debaterS
were of a character familiarlZed By the dis
cussion of tie WOman'S Rights question
during many years past The judges de-
clded in favor OF the affirmative. The
Chairman then called for vote Of the
Assembly upon the merits of the question
which gave the subject for debate and so
voted in favor of the admission Of woman
delegates TO the General Conference and sc
voted against.
The programme terminated with reading
by Mrs. Harry Jones and vocal duet by
Mrs. James l.. Case and Miss Susie Hirt.

OUT OF PRISON.
BY a Clever Trick a Chinese Is
Set at Liberty.

All Tong was arrested with sixteen other
Chinese in a tan game den on Ross alley,
September LIST, by Sergeant Spillane and
posse. He was placed in cell in the City
Prison, and bail was given in the sum OF
$3.50 for him. Yet he is still prisoner.
Tong is old, in6rm, and in consequence OF
no use nor marketable value to his country
men. His time does not cut much of a fS-
ure when compared with that of the younger
and more active coolies, whose earnings
represent certain pro-rata in the Golfers OF
the company to which he belongs. And
this is the reason why Tong still fingers in
a prison cell.
A fellow-priSoner, young and valuable,
comparatively, was set free upon the bail
intended for Tong through the clever schem-
lug of the MonRols outside. This younger
Chinese was guilty of another crime. and.
by all accounts, worse one than longs.
Where he Is now the officers cannot ascer-
tain.
This alone is not SO bad, but there is an
other aspect to the matter which mixes
things ineXtricably. Accounts cannot be
balanced because of the transfer. There Is
a deficit, and on the wrong side for the
officials, who maintain secrecy regarding the
matter. No blame is attached 10 any one,
as the prisoners are Chinese and defeat the
most watchful officers with trickery. One
man is gone, however, andSlf Tong insists
on being released he cannot be legally re-
strained, as the bond for bail is in his name
BY the trick one prisoner got free, and In all
probability the Chinese attorney will de-
mand longs release.
From this it may be seen how the willy
Chinese manage to take man from prison
and get another released on bonds, the lat
ter of course legally. The ingenuity, as
well as the b0ldneSS of the scheme, has as
founded the police authorities. 1t had never
been attempted before, though prisoners
were often substituted by dummies"
The prison officials are greatly exercised
over the affair, which they keep to them
selves.
1t was not possible to ascertain what
charge was against the escaped Chinese
prisoner, though the belief is that it was
felony.

Next in order was a financial problem. 1t
was a proposition to pay oue-half of the ex-
pense incurred by the long-dstance celebra-

name had been used without authorization;
that it was the duty of the Young Mems

amounting to over $500, were paid.
j. J. Flynn remarked: "We seem to be
poor-house for the Democracy. What's the
matter with the State Committee and the

The club finally decided to pay half the
bills and the matter was referred to COM

n Story That Ii Considerably Moro
Strange Than Truo.
A Needles (CaL) correspondent of the
San Francisco Examiner writes: The
incidents connected with the recent
pardon of s'Strong Bill" Williams, the
Chemerhueva Indian chief, his return
from San Quentin and the initiation OF
Judge j. Fl. West as . su5-chief OF the
tribe are all doubtless fresh In the
minds of the Examiners readers.
AS was stated, Chief "Strong Bill"
Williams, after the initiatory cere-
monies, departed for the Blythe farm,
down the Colorado river, where ten
years ago he killed the white man Gallo
way by cutting his throat from ear to
ear. Galloway had just shot and killed
his brother, the chief of the tribe, and
besides the feeling of blood relationship
which actuated the retaliatory killing,
''Strong Bills" fealty to his chief as
such was strong incentive to the deed.
Soon after his arrival here from San
Quentin it was noticed that he was not
as lively and cheerful as it was thought
he should be under the circumstances,
and his moodiness was commented upon
by the whites as well as by the Indians.
Yesterday he returned from the Blythe
farm apparently changed man, for in
stead of his sullen, moody air, he was
smiling, talkative and apparently much
contented with himself and the world.
He tells his story about IS follows:
ssWhen got back from San Quentin
and got with my tribe again the Incl
dents connected with the killing off Cal
loway were so plainly brought before
my mind that was thinking of the af-
fair all the time. One night dreamed
that Galloway came to me and told me
to go down to the Blythe farm and see
him. could not resist the request, or,
as it seemed to me, the command, to go.
So, in day or two afterward, as you
recollect, went down the river. In the
dream was ordered to come to the very
spot where the killing took place exact
~ at midnight, and to come by myself.
81 observed the command implicitly,
and, leaving my friends and compan-
ions one days journey this side of the
Blythe farm, travelled on down to the
place by myself. I arrived at the exact
spot an hour or two before midnight,
and, tell you, had some very strange
feelings. Every thing was as still and
quiet as darkness and a total lack of
life could make it, and could hear my
heart beat loud and strong. After re-
naming there itseemed to me week in
length of time, though it was not
longer than an hour, I heard mad
bull, as it seemed to me, below and
paw the earth just over my left
shoulder. I looked and saw the bull
plainly enough. and he had paved an
immense chasm in the ground. Pres
emily bright light, as round and about
as large as barrel, rose up from the
chasm, and from tho center of this
stepped Galloway, with his neck all
gaping and bleeding, just as it ap-

peared when killed him. I thought
he would kill me, and the cold sweat
poured off my face in perfect stream.
He looked at me, smiled and put out his
hand. I took his hand, and as did so
I could see that the wound had closed
little and that the blood was not flow
ing quite so freely.
''He said: DO you know who got you
free?' 1 answered: Yes, the white peo-
pie did His wound closed more and
he seemed to be better satisfied. That's
right he said. Il did not think you
knew it, and 1 wanted you to know it
was the whites who got you free. 1
could not rest in my grave until saw
you and had an understanding with you.
1 want you to be good friend to the
whites. We must be friends, too. Give
me your hand and say it is all right I
gave him my hand and said: All right,
and Immediately he appeared to me as
he did before the killing-not sign of
the wound or Of blood to be seen.
''Just then day began to break, and
Galloway suddenly vanished"
AS said before, Bill is changed man,
and whether he saw all this or dreamed
it, certain it is that he believes he saw
it, for he is relating it to the Indians
and to his white friends just as given
above, though of course in his own
peculiar style of broken English.

The Color of the EinEeI Tower.

The color of the Eiffel Tower, saws In
vention, quoting from an exchange, has
been one of the puzzles of the Paris Ex-
position, no two persons agreeing as to
what the color is. Some people imagine
that it has been plated with nickel or
silver, while others call it red, and
others again think that it is of beau
tiful bronze color. The fact is that it is
painted in five shades of the same color,
modulated with the skill that the
French often show in cases of the kind.
From the base to the first platform the
color is dark ''Barbedienne'' bronze,
verging little to red; thence to the
second platform the color is the same.
but lighter, and from this point to the
top the color grows constantly lighter,
by five successive gradations, the top
being almost a golden yellow. Three
coats OF paint are spread over the en-
tire surface, and over all is a coat of
very hard, transparent varnish, which,
by rejecting the sun, adds to the DIM
