Well Under Way.

Lancaster. Dec. 2S.-The Seventh Day
Adventists are making tremendous
preparations for their general confer
ence of the Seventh Day Adyentists Of
the world, which will open Fec IA. To-
dav the families that have been occu-
plying the large structure known as tho
South Home, We're moving out as expe-
ditiously as possible, while members of
the Adventist Society we're just as rap
idly putting beds INTO the vacant
rooms and turning the home into
dormitory for the use of the delegates
to the conference and their friends.
These families move into houses in the
neighborhood.
About 40 beds will be put into the
home. These beds are entirely aside
from the usual resources of the socie-
tv and it is taking great quantity Of
bedding to supply them. A great deal
of this bedding. especially quilts and
sheets is being made by the women
of the society.
Connected with the home is kitch-
en-. and large dining room. This room
will he used to its full capacity. The
committee in charge Of the conference
is assured of the presence of at leasR
1000 strangers on what may be- termed
the big DAYS of the convention, and 1t
is going to tax the great resources Of
the society to care for them
Elder w H. Cottrell announced in
church that every family would be ex-
pected to nut one or more beds into its
parlor and as many as possible in
other parts of the mouse,
About IS persons will be accomme-
dated in the dormitOries of the big
school. In the big dining room some
thing like 200 persons can be seated at
one time.
The large meetings will be held in
the church. The church only holds 500
people.
Today carpenters are putting in an
extra gallery to increase the seating
capacity. This gallery will seat about
$50 persons. Overflow meetings will
be held in the hall of the old academy
back of the new school.
Lest all these facilities may not be
enough, a Sheet-iron portable taber-
nacle has been ordered from Chicago.
Rev. H. A. Henderson, the instructor
in Latin and Greek for the South Lam
caster Academy, told all these things
to the correspondent of The Spy, this
afternoon.
He said that the sheet-iron taber-
udCle NOulu Ne d DuiluluB oV Dy IUU rect,
like several similar buildings the Ad-
ventists have in use. 1t can be taken
down and set up anywhere. The taber-
nacle will be divided into rooms In
which committee meetings will be held.
The sheet-irOn portable tabernacle is
the invention of James Carr. a Chica-
go man, and a. relative of Mr.. Hender-
son.
Among the notable persons who are
expected to be present at the confer
ence are 0. A. Olsen of Copenhagen,
Denmark, president of the European
conference; A. G. Daniels of New
South Wales, Australia, president Of

days. Thus far they have not been mo-
Tested by the officers in that part Of
the town, but it seems last Sunday
they did not fare so we'll. After having
caught d handsome lot of fish and while
they were at dinner, some one relieved
the party of the whole lot. They were
indignant, and offered a sum of money
as a reward for the capture of the party
who stole the fish. Citizens of West

minds to see that the law is enforced,
and these Worcester parties and others
may not escape so easy when they come
