NJ. P. CONFERENCE

The Maryland Annual Conference of
the Methodist Protestant Church con-
tinued its session in Baltimore yester-
day. Correctional church interests
were presented in addresses which oc.
cupied the greater part of the days ses-
sion.
Rev. T. J. OgburD, of North Care
lima, secretary OF the foreign missiona :
ry board, made a characteristic addr ess
in presenting the claim of missions
upon the benevolence Of the church.
Mr.. Ogburn told Of some savage tribes
who, when their warriors fail in battle,
feed them on tiger-bone soup. "Some
of you preachers" he said, in
his usual drawl, "eat TOO much
chicken and not enough backbone pie"
Continuing his estimate OF pastor, Mr..
Ogburn said: "The true pastor is q
general, a leader, captain. The
preacher will show what is in him if
there is anything in him to show. l
am glad I have been the best 'cussed'
preacher in North Carolina, and /
thank God for that cursing. If was
yellow dog passing through Baltimore,
would rather have some boy throw q
brick bat ut ms-and miss-thsn to
pass along unnoticed. Let 'em know you
are on hand. Don't be afraid of your
people. The church is not here to save
itself and to keep up with others, but
to save the world We had better have
only three or four true preachers in
Baltimore and the lest in foreign fields
than to have you all as polite as dancing
masters trying to keep of each others
toes. Root hog or die. 1t is folly to
preach against money, Cor every one
in this country has the desire to pos
sess. The biggest lie l ever heard, and
it was sung by 5000 people, wss Lord,
Care Not for Riches, Neither Silver
nor Gald.' Not one that was there but
would break his neck to get a million
in gold or sixteen millions in silver.
Save people on the money side like the
good Baptist wanted his pockets bap.

ALMOST AN ACCIDENT.-Between six
and seven o'clock yesterday evening q
serious accident was narrowly averted
on the electric railway at what is known
as Four-mile run curve, short distance
north of the power house-the same
place where collision with land slide
occurred about year ago. A north
and south bound train were proceeding
at rapid rate of speed at this place.
Both trains were crowded, end the pas.
sengers were startled by the sudden ap-
plication of the air brakes. Heads i'm
mediatelY protruded from the windows
and some of the occupants of the cars
ran to the platforms. Both the trains,
fortunately, were under control when
they came together and only the fend-
ers were damaged.

purpose of escorting tbs ship to that
city, but upon learning of the captains
purpose to remain of Alexandria, the
