United Brethren Church from the word

S. Bowman, of Huntington, Ind, sang sew
eral solos, among which was an ode COM
posed by DIR. Becker, entitled Our Early
Church Fathers" the lines of which had
particular reference to William Otterbein

Rev. c. L. Wood of Michigan. Conference
met this morning with Bishop Wright in
the chair. A telegram was read by Bishop
Floyd, accepting the greetings sent to the
United Presbyterian General Assembly at
Rock Island. 1t was requested that all del
egateS furnish their photograph to the con-
ference to be placed in the church book.
The report of the committee on education
was taken UP and after much discussion the
whole matter was recommitted. Inasmuch
as some points were in dispute DIR. Kira-
COTE moved that the beard of bishops take
the matter in hand and determine the
power of the General Conference over sep
arate individual conferences. The COM
mittee on revision of the Discipline reported
a number of changes, but lew were made.
At the afternoon session the SecretaryS
salary was made $25 for the year and the
recording secretary $40. The amendment to
have q class steward was voted down. The
debate on representation to the General
Conference was hotiy contested between

mended the official board be given more

sentation to conference membership to five
hundred or less and have but one delegate

n Turkish force of 5000 and Gen. Smo-
lentz's brigade and the Turks were re-
pulsed with enormous losses. The
Greek forces which have been operating
in Epirus against the Turks were said
to be retreating.
Advices from London say that Eu-
ropean intervention between Turkey
and Greece in the present position OF
affairs is regarded as wholly imprac-
ticable, both Greece and Turkey having
resolved to continue the war.
A series of earthquakes throughout
the chain of Leeward islands in the
West Indies destroyed numerous build
ings and many persons were killed.
Epirus has again been invaded by the
