THE coLoRED mErHoDIsrs.

The fifty second annual New England
conference OF the A. N. L. Zion Church
which Is being held in the Lilac street
church edifice this week has drawn to-
gether representative body OF coloreo
Methodists who are a part Of a numerous
and powerful religious organization that
has teen In existence one hundred years,
having been formed as early as 1906. Z
This body is the same I'm doctrine and
government as the Methodist Episcopal
church. The letter "a" standing for
African, indicates the only difference,
representing color. IL has a mem bership
OF about one million, with nine bishops,
three theological schools and other
colleges and academies. 1t has 81 con-
ferences in all, the denomination being
most numerous in the Middle States.
Actually, the body is strong one, with
parent Missionary Society, Home Mis-
sionary Society and Womens' Missionary
organizations as auxiliaries in every
church. The conferences, however, are
In no wise associated with the Methodist
Epicopai conferences without the "a"
While they are the same In doctrine and
discipline, he two bodies are wholly dis
tinct. There are colored conferences in the
NJ. Il. Church and colored members to the
number OF over 400, 600, with delegates in
the general conference. The "color line"
is rapidly disappearing in all Methodism,
but whether this A. M. T.. Zion Church
shall ever court organic union with the
parent body, depends on the body Of
Methodists thus organized as the A. NJ.
T.. Zion Church. - N~N
The members OF the conference now
proceeding in this city, are OF more than
average intellectual ability.
Many OF the preachers have titles OF
honor. Bishop Hood, who presided this
week, for instance, has the double title
ID. ID. and LID. Bishop j. b. Small ID.
ID. and Bisnop Alex. Walters d. d., also
attend the session. They are able
preachers and are bo ooked already to fill
some prominent pulpits in town on Sun
day afternoon and evening.
The conference in its membership pre-
sents fine appearance. The men are OF
good size and build and good features.
You see few bald heads and no grey
heads, though the bishop and some other
preachers evidently are getting along in

The devotional exercises are fervid.
The ministers do not appear TO be 80 in
clined to hurry through them as their
white brethren often seem to be. As an
example, in announcing a hymn, the
preacher reads II all through, then the
people rise and begin to sing, singing
only two lines at time, waiting for the
"iining" OF the next couplet by the
preacher.

PHILIPPINE REVOLT.
REBELS SEEM TO HAVE 1T ALL
THEIR OWN WAY.
Spanish Officers Are Too Timid to Cope
With the Brave and Fierce Islanders
Who Hate the Spanish Yoke.

San Francisco, Oct. 23.-The
steamer Peru, which arrived
from the Orient, brought some
news of the revolution in the
Philippines. The rebels now
hold the province of Cavite, are
we'll organized, and have 5000
Mansur rifles. The Spanish troops
are afraid to venture into the in
terror until reinforcements ar
rive, lest the native troops should
rebel. Chinese immigrants have
suffered heavy loss both of life
and property. Some 100 prison
ers were imprisoned by the Span
iards in a "black hole" and fifty
died in the night.
Already the natural instinct of
the native soldiers have been suf-
ficiently shown. One day a regi-
ment of the natives was parad-
ing. They were asked if they
would fight for the Spanish gov
eminent, and their reply was that
they would, but that they would
certainly not kill one of their fell
low -countrymen. On another oc-
casion a Spanish captain and a
half dozen of the native soldiers
were turned out to quell dis
turbance. Five of the natives
were killed and the sixth then
turned around, stabbed his Off
Ger to death and joined the rebel
forces. The timidity of the Span
ish officers to enter Cavite under
these circumstances gives the re-
bel forces a splendid opportunity
to gather in large numbers in the
province and to get formidable
armed and thoroughly organized.
When all was in readiness for an
attack they swooped down upon
the convent at linus, few miles
from the town of Cavite, and
murdered all the rebels who
could not manage to escape, but
how many were put to death is
not known. The government still
refrained from sending troops in
to the province, but four Spanish
men-of-war bombarded linus and
other places where the movement
of the rebel forces could be de-
tected, for several days, and the
bombardment was still going on
at the date of last advices. 1t
does not appear to have done
much damage, as the shells fell
short and the rebels continued to
hold their position.
1t is believed that the whole of
the province is in the hands of
the rebels, and each days delay
in despatching troops there
means so much loss of powder to
the Spaniards, and an inestima-
BILE gain of power to the rebels,
as the forces of the rebels are GER
tain to be augmented with each
successes. They are said to have
already slain hundreds in the in
terror. In the immediate neigh
borhood of Manila, but not in Ma
Mia itself, there has been much
fighting, and from all accounts
the government troops have been
successful, but they have lost sew
eral of their officers, who were
killed

sLAYDEN's INCONSISTENCY
From the Daily Express. !

From the Daily Express.
Editor Express:-In a letter to
Daily Journal urging the Popu-
lists of this district to support
Mr.. Slayden for congress because
he stands for free silver, Mr..
Charles w. Keller, who desig-
mates himself a "former Popu-
list" says the "Bryan if he is to
give relief to the people must
have congress in sympathy with
him. The Journals correspond
ent hits the nail squarely on the
head in the above Statement and
gives, although he does not seem
sufficiently to appreciate the fact,
one of the five or six good reasons
why the people of the Twelfth
congressional district, irrespec-
tive of party utilization, will re-
fuse to give Mr.. Slayden their
practical support at the polls. Mr..
Keller is probably the only man
in the district who does not know
that Mr.. Slayden claims to be
prOtectiOnist and could have, as
a prOtectionist, no sympathy or
influence, with Mr.. Bryan, who is
an avOwed free trader.
This disposes of Mr.. Keller's
argument, so far as Mr.. Slayden
is concerned, but it does not dis
pose of Mr.. Slayden's anomalous
position in respect of political
parties. There is another and
confusing side to the question
thus raised, which places him in
an menviable, if not positively
position in national
politics. Mr.. Slayden is a colos-
sus, towering above the political
world, with a foot on both nation
al platforms. He presents two
sides, a good side and a bad side
to the two parties land could have
no influence with either. He is
admirable as a gentleman in pri-
vate life, and he undoubtedly is
as politician, but he
cannot be utilized and made to
help along the practical and great |
interests of this district. Mr.. |
Mckinley will be the next presi-
dent of the United States, and
we require and are going to have
in congress from this district a
man that stands on one platform
a man who stands for sound mon
ay and protection. That man is
George FL. Noonan.
The patience of the people has
been exhausted by the failures of |
politicians and pol
icies and they understand their |
powers and will with uprightness |

viction assert their dignity, and
relegate to eternal limbo the alb
of public men and meas
ures. The American people are
an honest people. There is not and
