to present the conclusion of their
deliberations. This was done by
one selected by the different dele
cations.
After nearly two days spent in
comparison of views and of de-
bate it was decided that the union
could only be effected With an en-.
tirely new society. A great many
names were proposed, and during
the forenoon session Of the second
day the name of Wesley League
was adopted, but a number dis
sented, feeling that il was not the
best name. The subject was
again taken up in the afternoon
session, and the convention be-

and threatening stOrm.clOud that
had hung over the conference
during the previous part of the
day had disappeared, and during
the final hours of the last session
a perfect calm rested upon the
conference. When the work was
concluded and the brethren real
lied that they had launched a great
organization, the feelings Of emo
ton that seized the whole body of
the convention was awe-inspiring;
and when the dOx0lOgy was sung
and the closing prayer was offered
it was amidst the intensest feel
lngs Of rejoicing. The Epworth
League has now spread through
out the Methodism of America,
England, Canada and into foreign
fields.

direction of that society, with the
other Methodist young people or
carnations, looking toward a basis
of union. This proposition met q
hearty response, and it was agreed
to have all the five prominent
young peoples societies of the
church appoint delegations Of six
representatives from each to meet
in convention to consider the
proposition Of forming one united
Methodist society. An invitation
to meet in the Central Methodist
Episcopal church, of Cleveland, O.,

THE BIRTH OF THE LEAGUE.

ITS ORGANIZATION AND CHRIST
ENING AT CLEVELAND, OHIO, IN
MAY, 1889.
To any student of the Epworth
League movement it must be plain
that it is child of Providence,
and is therefore difficult to trace
the causes that led up to its or.
ganiZatiOn. There were certain
influences, nevertheless, that had
been set in motion by the divine
hand to work out this problem:
sour Methodist young people and
our church."
Everywhere, in all Christian
denominations, the conviction
was upon the heart of the church
that the time had come to make
AN ampler provision for the Chris
tian nurture of her young people,
and in response to this desire,
young peoples societies were
springing up everywhere through
out the churches.
There were in the Methodist
Episcopal church five societies OF
considerable magnitude and in ad-
dition to these a great many local
societies. To some who are deeply
interested in the young people. il
seemed that the the time had
come for union of all these into
one great denominational organ
iZatiOn, but who first saw the
indications and read the "signs of
the times" Alright, is lot known.
1t seems that it came to several
simultaneously, like the star OF
Bethlehem, and the angels that
appeared to the wise men and the
shepherds at the same time.
During the early part of 1889,
correspondence was begun BY

OFFICER.

w. b. Douglas yesterday evening wrote
II lester to Mayor w. X. Andrews in
which he charges Police Officer Gee with
unlawfully assaulting w. n Sale on
market square. He says that Sale was
slightly under the influence of whiskey
and that Policeman Gee in arresting him,
usei his club unlawfully, and that when
he, Douglas, started towards him to aid
him in assisting Sale, if necessary, and
to keep Gee from beating him, that he
drew his pistol and pointed 1t ut him in
Il very threatening manner. The police
officers here report Sale as Il bad charac-
ter and as always resisting arrest, and
say that when Officer Gee attempted to
arrest him for being drunk and disorder
ly, he resisted arrest, when Officer Gee
struck him once or twice to bring him
into subsection. After being taken to
the police station Il physician was called
in to eXnmine Sales wounds, and he said
that he was suffering more from his drunk
than from the licls received on the head bv
