Generally.

The approach of the time for the
holding of the great Epworth League
convention has put new life into the
members fthe Methodist churches
of the city.
This convention was secured for
Wheeling after determined fight, the
opponents of our city asserting that
Wheeling would not be able to find
places for all the delegates and Wis
itors that would attend.
The Methodist Episcopal church is
arranged into various groups. The
smallest are known as Presiding
Elders districts. Several of these are
grouped into what is called an an
nual conference, while several con-
ferences are incorporated into a gen.
eyal district Wheeling is embraced
in the bounds of the Fourth General
Conference District. This includes
the Pittsburg, Erie, Central Pennsyl-
vania Philadelphia, Baltimore, Wash
ineton and West Virginia conferences.
AZ will be seeen, a large and popu-
lcus territory is here contained and
the last figures show over 1.500 league
cbanters organized. Under the con-
stitution governing the convention,
each ehapter is entitled to two dele
gates. The low rates on the railroads,
the beautiful mountain scenery
through which the delegates must
mass. and the enthusiasm OF the young
neople of the Epworth League, com
bine 10 indicate large attendance IN
June. The central committee is hold
ing frequent meetings, considering
Mans for the various subcommittee,
who are to be appointed shortly.
