The Cape Girardeau Democrat. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1876-1909, 1897-04-10
MISSOURI

ShuANh was CIl dI ICIIdAy. blSAlOR
Cranston presiding. A resolution de-
nouncing prize-fghting vas passed.
The names of Corbett, Fitzsimmons and
wife and John j. Ingalls, appeared in
the resolution. but the preachers had
no wish to advertise those persons in
the records of the conference. and the
names We're stricken out quickly, and
then the resolution was adopted with
wild applause. The trial for heresy OF
Rev. c. E. Cunningham was referred to
his presiding elder. 1t seems that the
heresy in the case is that the good
brother forgot himself in the recent
campaign and talked free silver instead
OF preaching the Gospel. Thirteen
new preachers were admitted to travel
ing connection. Six others were or
dained as deacons, and sever others
were made elders.
