Not Allowed a Hearing by the Wesleyan
Conference ut Grand Rapids.
CHICAGO. Oct 31.-A special dispatch from
Grand Rapids. Mich, says:
The Rev. G. P. Riley, who was refused fel-
lowship in the Wesleyan Methodist general
conference because he had joined the G. A. R.,
a secret society, stirred up a lively scene at the
closing session Of the conference. He petit
toned for permission to make an explanatory
statement, and was suppressed by Presi-
dent Wardner, who ruled that Riley was not
a member OF the conference in good standing
and therefore did not enjoy even the right OF
petition. r.. -
Riley WAS present and took the floor without
permission and demanded q hearing.
Some Of the brethren wanted to hear what he
had to say. but the majority did not. and an
uproar followed. with dozen on the floor at
one time, all trying to talk.
The president deputized O sergeant-at-arms
to remove Brother Riley, forcibiy il necessary,
from the church.
Riley then succumbed and the assembly
united in singing the doxology.
Resolutions were adopted before the Riley
episode memorializing Congress to close the
worlds fair on Sunday and also against the
manufacture Of liquors for any purpose.

Remarkable Cure
Catarrh
ASTHMA
STATEMENT OF
THE REV. JACOB D. WILSON
OF a37 SIXTH STREET Sc.
Pastor Of
Independent Methodist Church.
TO THE PUBLIC:

During my service in our late war I con-
tracted catarrh in my head and throat, which
later on developed into asthma in its most
serious form. When the paroxysms were upon
me the distressing cough and ceaseless gasping
for breath, nearly amounting to suffocation,
caused the greatest of suffering-almost too
much to bear. Sleep at such times was impos-
sible, and the slightest exertion greatly aggra-
waited these distressing symptoms In spite Of
all my efforts for relief the asthma continued
and even increased in severity until by advice
of friends applied to DIR. Lighthill of this
city. His careful and thorough examination
and Investigation of my case inspired me with
confidence and placed myself under his care,
and within three months time he effected o
complete cure Of my catarrh and asthma. Ny
cough is gone. can breathe az freely as any one,
sleep soundly and feel perfectly we'll This
great success in my case seems almost miracle.
In addition to the above would also mention
that am short Of stature and weighed over 400
pounds, with a tendency toward apople1y. To
avoid this danger DIR. Lighthin decided TO re-
duce my weight. and during the above period
. reduction of over thirty pounds was effected,
to my great delight and comfort. Icannot praise
Dr. LighthiIl too highly for his careful atten-
ton and skillful treatment Of my case.
With profound gratitude to the Almighty
and with prayers for blessings upon DR.. Light
hill, make this public statement, hoping that
similar sufferers will profit by il. would be
pleased to sec any one interested desiring fur
ther Information.

The Bazaar and Fair Under Fire.

From an English journal.
From various press reports and other indi-
cations it appears that the practice of holding
bazars and fairs for the benefit Of churches,
hospitals, fraternities, orders and all kinds of
institutions has been carried 10 such excess
In England as to arouse considerable feeling
against what lie styled 'this sort Of religious
mendicancy perpetratcd uuder the veil Of 60
called Christian charity" The wsalthisr q
well as the middle classes are rebelhng against
"a compulsory benevolence whose aims fire.
quently do either notreach the object aimed ct.
except in small percentage. or are perverted
to the luxurious enjoyment Of the 'beneAcent'
promoters themselves" Dissenters occasion
ally condemn the system on biblical grounds,
but the strongest opposition comes from the
trade. Tradesmen, retail dealers, especially
milliners, toy sellers and small trade Kener-
ally, complain Of being robbed Of their living
In two directions; first BY being morally forced
BY thsir lady customers to contribute to the
fairs and secondly by losing custom and sales
by the undertaking and attraction Of the
bazars--a form Of competitiou e. unjust IN
