tiOn,


The Oakland District Epworth
League Convention met in st. Paul's
NJ. E. Church Tuesday evening, June
9th, and continued in session until
Thursdaf evening of the same week.
Eighty-three delegates were in at
tendence and together with visitors
from the different charges constitut-
ed the largest Epworth League con-
vention yet held in the district.
The first evening was in charge of
the local chapter and the program
rendered was much enjoyed.
Wednesday morning and afternoon
was occupied with reports of officers,
miscellaneous business, and the dis
cussion of assigned topics. Space will
forbid reference to all the excellent
talks and papers, but special mention
should be made of the papers by Mr..
Geo. E. Bishoff, Mrs. Minnie Koch
and Rev. J. L. B. Jones.
On Wednesday evening a platform
meeting was held, in charge of the
District organization. The relation
of the Epworth League to Missions,
temperance, coming men and women.
Santified intelligence was eloquently
presented by Rev. j. B. Workman
Rev. g. G. Shaw, DR.. J. II. King and
Rev. G. B. Meredith.
The sunrise prayer meetings held
Wednesday and Thursday mornings
were largely attended and very in
spring.
Two highly interesting papers on
Junior Epworth League work read
by Misses Mollie Hamill and d. Vir-
ginia Fraley, We're greatly appreciat-
ed by the entire convention. No fea-
ture of the gathering was more in
spring or instructive than the exer-
cises by the Junior League of Oak
land and Mountain Lake. The chill
dren showed careful training on the
part of their enthusiastic superipten-
dents, and all present were more than
ever impressed with the Importance
of this part of the work.
Thursday afternoon was occupied
with reports of committees, election
of officers and miscellaneous business
The following is the Cabinet for the
ensuing year:
President, Rev. Daniel Westfall; 1st

Century Fund Committee who were
expected to be present, failed to ap-
pear so their places on the program
were ably filled by Revs. J. L. b.
Jones and G. B. Meredith.
Special mention should be made of
the st. Paul's NJ. E. church choir,
which, under the direction of the tai
ented leader, DR.. J. G. Robinson, fur
nished most excellent music at the
evening sessions of the convention.

of exhibits which would be had each
day. We believe with the coopera-
ton and consent of the school au-
thorities, the large lot in the rear of
the public school building could be
secured as place where the exhibits
might be installed during the con-
tinuance of the Fair.
These are suggestions which we
desire to place before the Club for its
consideration. And your Committee
hopes that favorable action may be
taken to inaugurate an institution
which has for its object the good of
the entire county and one which we
believe will be lasting credit to the
Oakland Club, as its proposer.
The Committee would respectfully
suggest that the Oakland Club take
hold of the matter of a County Fair,
and at once appoint a committee
composed of discreet business men to
look up suitable grounds, ascertain
upon what condition the same could
be secured, and report the result of
its Investigation at some meeting of
the Club in the near future.
All of which is respectfully sub
mitted.

A. d. NAYLoR,
Chairman.

DR.. John E. Legge, as chairman of
the Amusement Committee, to ascer-
tain the sentiment of the Club with
reference to Fourth of July celebra-
tion in Oakland, made a verbal re-
port and was instructed to solicit
funds with which to secure attractions
for the day. AS body the Club was
favorable to the celebration but the
business men of the town were un-
willing TO pledge themselves for the
amount necessary to make the affair
success and in consequence there
will be no celebration in Oakland this
year.
The executive committee of the
Club transacted some routine busi-
ness. Mr.. Cortez H. Jennings, of Lo-
PEE, Pa, was admitted to the Club as
a member.

Clerk Worls read a typewriter
opinion from Judge Cranmer, relative
to the question of bond, the Judge
taking the position
First, that neither the letter nor the
spirit of the law. permits the aecep-
ance of persons as sureies who are
financially insufficient to cover the ag-
gregate amount of the penalties of
bonds signed by them as sureties.
Second, that it is wrong in principle
and in law. to accept sureties who have
been Unidentified by others.
\Third, that it is desirable that bonds
men be sworn TO the value of their
property. real and personal. and their
sufnciency should be equivalent to the
full amount

were all right.
Mr.. Chew said he was willing to
vote either for the acceptance or re-
lection of the applications, in order to
get the matter in Council.
Mr.. Boyce said he represented two
of the defendants, and asked to be
heard. He was granted the privilege
of the floor, and entered into a de-
Tense of John G. Kline. When he had
fini Asd, Chairman Bradbury said he
had asked to have Kline's application
drawn with the rest.
Mr.. Bradbury stated that if
members of the committee had
personal knowledge of improper
resorts, it was their duty to
give the committee the benefit. MIR.
Chew's position was that it was no
more their duty than it was the duty
of private citizen.
Mr.. Bachman said he felt like OBJ
jecting to all applications, until the
question of the adequacy of the bond
was satisfactorily determined. Clerk
O'Brien said the complaint which
comes to the Office of the City Clerk
led him to believe that the applications
of some who had been passed over
were as Objectionable as many that
had been laid aside

ADVERSE INTIMIDATION
On Dozen Appplications for
Lfcense-All the others Were APP
proved by the COmmittee-Judge
Cranmef's Opinion on the cues
ton of Notwithstanding Session
of the Committee Last Night.

The matter of granting applications
for saloon lincenses was considered
last night by the Council Committee
on Petitions and RESPONSIVENESS. The
committee was divided as to the proper
method of procedure, and decided to
refer the entire matter to Council, af-
ter selecting about twelve applicants,
and recommending adversely upon
them.
The meeting was held in the @fice
OF the Chief of Police, and was very
interesting. Messrs. Bachman. Bitter,
Bradbury. M. A. Chew d and
Bickerten were the q, ..rht
members of the CON-. F<,sno at
tended. Messrs. Ross Chew and Frank
Healy represented the Second Branch
investigating committee. 1t will be re-
membered that four members were ap-
pointed under Mr.. Chew's resolution
but that the First Branch refused to
concur. s. 0. Boyee, Esq, was pres
ent to look after the interests of John
G. Kline and w. o. Walker.
The committee first decided to go
over the entire list of applicants, for
the purpose of selecting those to whom
objection would be made. The appli-
cations of j. B. Wilke, Gottleib Hard
ing, Valentine Leibold, Wilkie & Ty-
son, w. o. Walker, Trosch & Hadron,
Landmesser & Co., Burke Bros, John
McNamee, Joseph Barum, John G..
Kline, and John j. Reilly, Jr., were
drawn in this matter, and the remain
ing applications were approved. The
application OF Fred Goldstrohm was
withdrawn. Mr.. Ross Chew, chairman
of the Second Branch committee, en-
tered objections to eleven of the
names, and Chairman Bradbury in
cluded Kline in the number.
The question now was the DISPOSE
ton TO be made of the twelve appli-
cations which were drawn Mr. NJ A
Chew recalled to the minds of the
committeeman the action taken by the
Federation of Churches before the last
meeting, and suggested that the COM
mittee prepare written objections to
applications to be forwarded with the
committees report to Council. He
thought great deal of discussion
might be saved by this method, as
Council must pass finally upon the APP
plications, and might reverse the ac-
ton of the committee.

What do you think of Wheeling,
