Monday afternoon, engine No. s
of the Oliver company jumped
the track. On the foot board of
the derailed engine stood H. A.
Durkee. Neil ellis and Dan Rice,
all of whom jumped, the first two
escaping injury, but the latter

The NJ. 2. Conference.

Announcement was made last
week through these columns that
the sessions of the Columbia River
conference of the NJ. E. church will
! be held in Pullman next fall.
Cities north, south, east and west
are realizing the significance Of con-
vertions of the various sccts and
orders, and eager bids are made for
them. The convening of d Metho-
dist conference is not so modern as
the great religious conventions
which bring together the thousands
of young people, yet its Significance
is keenly recognized as is shown by
the cordial invitations from various
towns when it comes to fixing upon
place for conference sessions,
Moscow and WaiIa Wolla were the
chief rivals of Pullman in securing
the '93 conference The gathering
of hundred and fifty ministers
and their wives from Eestern Wash
ington and Oregon and Northern
Idaho means more to Pullman than
religious enthusiasm and an impe-
tus to church work. The ministers
are representatives of a constituent
cy OF many thousands Of the class
W mo are directly interested in our
school advantages and general pro-
gress The conference always brings
from the east some church otlicia Is
who are men of exceptional talent,
and who are close and interested
Observers If the west. Though
proverbs, Tor their strong stand
against social evils, Methodist
preachers are ia the main men Of
good sound sense and judgment,
and must genial, jovial, warm
hearted set Of fellowswhen together
IL a body
II is 6 long established custom
to make the visiting ministers
guests in the homes Of the town in
which the coufefence is held. 1t
invariably means a delightful week
to those whos entertain, and the
univeraa eSpfe45pn is regret that
the conference Is SO soon over.
FuIlman will be no exception to
this rule Rev. e. SMITH
