EPwoRTH LEAGUERs.
Their Influence to he Exerted for
Union of MethOdism

The fourth International convention of
the Epworth League, which is to be held
at Indianapolis July % to 3D. inclusive
promises to be the largest gathering of
young Methodists ever brought together in
this country, and its results are confidently
expected to be of great Importance to the
cause of religion. Widespread interest is
being taken in the District in the conven-
ton and mass meeting will be held to-
night at Hamhne Church, corner 9th and
streets northwest, under the auspices of
the transportation committee of the Wash
lngton District League, consisting of K. s.
La Fetra, H. F. Belt NJ. r. Speelman, T.
Benson Locke, G. H. Lamar, DR.. c. B.
Campbell and Prof E. Frisby. Addresses
will be delivered by prominent divines rep
resenting the NJ. z. Church and the NJ. f.
Church South. and a musical program will
be rendered by Hamline choir, under d.
rection of Mr.. w. j. Palmer. The meeting
will be presided over by Mr.. Harry Dram
Hine. president of the Washington District
League.
1t is understood that one of the features
of the Indianapolis convention will be
vigorous effort to bring about a consolda-
ton of the NJ E. Church and the NJ. +.
Church South, which has been regarded S
more and more desirable with each re-
curing year since the causes that led to
their separation have become more and
more remote. The young Methodists, as
represented in the Epworth League. are
said to be almost a unit in favor of such
unity, and at Indianapolis the representa-
tives of both branches will, ii is believed,
make strong recommendations to bring
about the desired result.
The local delegates will leave Washing
ton July 10. by special train, over the
Chesapeake and Ohio road, arriving at In
dianapolis shortly before noon July 20, In
time to participate in the opening session
of the convention, which will be called to

Their Second Recital at the Church
of Our Father.
A second concert was given last night at
the Church Of Our Father by the pupils of
Mrs. H. H. Mills, and like its predecessor
last week was cordially received. The pro-
gram differed from the first in both num-
bers and singers, and was interesting
throughout. The same nigh standard of
selection and execution was apparent. and
every number received liberal applause.
Among the solos of special merit were those
of Miss Pollard, Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Hills,
the latter possessing a rich meazo-soprano
voice. Mrs. Goldsborough Goddard sang
charmingly a "Serenade" and Mr.. w. S.
Sheetz manifested much accuracy of attack
and technical skill. Miss Dobbin made a
good impression by her singing of a number
by Nevin and Wells Spring Song" as did
also Miss Bessie Driver IN her brilliant
work. Among the other soloists were Miss
Florence Eichberg. Miss Edith Lindsay,
Miss Edith Potbury, Mr.. j. H. keyser, Miss
Helen Reed, Miss Nellie Corrigan, Miss
Sarah Taylor, Mrs. N. B. Kelse-, Miss
Salome Wingate, Miss Marie McKelden.
Miss Lila Johnson, Mrs. H. B. Holiiteld
and Mrs. Blanche Muir-Dalgleish.
The ladies' quartet, so we'll received at the
first concert, and Messrs. Roberts and
Thompson in duet, sang again at this
concert by request, and renewed the good
impression previously made.
Miss Mai Greenwich gave an excellent
Interpretation of Loves Rhapsody by Bart
lett, and Mrs. Dalgleish sang Brahms
Sardmaunchen with much feeling. Mrs.
Holifield sang Polly Willis an old Eng
lish song, with intelligence and good execu-
ton. The house was crowded and the sing
ers on the best of terms with their audi
ence.
The violin oblgatos were carefully rem
dered by Mr.. Joseph Findkel who has just
returned from Brussels and is fresh from
N
Omstead's efficient work a both these con-
certs cannot be too highly praised.

DISPENSARY SYSTEM,
Discussion of That Solution of til
Liquor Problem.

Liquor Problem.
The temperance society of the First Con-
gregational Church last evening discussed
the Gispensary system, as applied to the
liquor problem. w. H. Pennell, the presi-
dent of the society, occupied the chair.
A. N. Garfield reviewed the history of
the movement, and read letters from num-
Der of people living where the dispensary
system is now in operation, expressing opin-
ions on the actual results. The idea of a
6ispensary for liquor conducted by the gov
eminent instead of saloons under private
ownership, he said, was first tried in 1880
at Athens, Ga. Among the good points Of
the dispensary system were mentioned the
overthrow of the political influence of the
saloon, the cessation of treating, the sepa
ration from the places where liquor is sold
from lunches and games, the publicity OBJ
tanned through requiring every purchaser
to sign his name, the prohibition of drink
ing the premises, and the fact that the
dspensaries are closed on Sundays, holt
days and at night
B. w. Pond, James L. Ewin, Ex-Governor
Sidney Perham of Maine, and Mrs. Fred
Miller also spoke.

Cautton to Crab-Eater.,

While indulging in a crab feast DOM
drink milk, as it will cause cramps and
commissions of the stomach. Alcoholic bev-
erages are also not advisable, as they pet
rify the crab meat, but beer dissolves 1t
and helps to proper digestion. National Cap
ital Brewing Co.'S Diamond and ''Muen-
chener'' beers go excellent on top of crabs.
