nearly 5U,uUU during BISHOP
the %quadrennial. The Methodist Sun
day schools in India now have a mem
bership of over $4,000, an increase of
$4,000 during the four years past. In
the day schools the church had 10000
native pupils OF India. The report
warmly commended the work of women
in the missions Of India. The church
has established three publishing houses,
and is sending out pamphlets and peri
odicals in nine different languages from
it's WI presses. The day OF small
things is past" said the Bishop. We

which will be open only to college grad
yates and the doors OF which are not to
be thrown open until an endowment
fund of So, 1000 GOO has been secured.
The nature Of the scheme was set forth
by Bishop Hurst while presiding. Rev.
DIR. Moulton, the English delegate, was
called for by the audience, and re-
sponded briefly, expressing his approval
Of the magnificent scheme and faith in
its contamination. 1t was announced
that several subscriptions had already
been promised, Mrs. McCabe taking the
first share Of $1,000. Another sum
across the water is only waiting for
some one to go after 1t. A resolution
was adopted asking the bishops to desig-
nate Oct. 16 as Columbian day, when
subscriptions will be taken for the Amer.
lean university.
A resolution unanimously passed ask
ing all the societies Of the Methodist
Church to decline 10 ask for or receive
any financial aid from the United States
Government for any educational or re-
ligious work-whether among the In.
dians or others. 1t was stated that the
Methodist Church, as a church, had never
asked for or received any such aid,
though some quasi-Me.hodist organiza-
ton had received a few thousand dol
lars. The Methodist Church goes on
record al being utterly opposed to the
government assisting any religious body
in a financial way. II any denomina-
ton cannot live without government aid,
the feeling was that it would be better
for 1T TO make I'm assignment and 20 out
of business. a complete separation of
church and state is an absolute neces-
sity, and by this action of, the General
Conference the Methodist Church has
joined hands with the great Baptist
Church, which, so it is claimed, has
never received any government aid for
den ominational purposes.
The farewell remarks II Dr. Moulton,
the Wesleyan delegate, were in good
taste. and We're heartily %applaudcd.
Bishop Nineent's response in behalf of
the conference was eloquent and @
prehensivc. The conference joined in
singing two verses OF the hymn begin
ming "Blest be the tic that binds" and
DR.. Moulton left for his home iu London.

was also attacked. but her brawny
muscles saved her from Icing wounded
badly. A dozen other women have
complained of simi.ar assaults, and

SHOW that the same man has committed
all the assaults. Thus far he has es-
capped arrest. The community is so
stirred up over the outrages that he
will be lynched If he is caught in his

held in the highest regard by the clergy
