/ Next Wednesday morning at 0 O'Clock
the Virginia Conference of the NJ. e..
Church, South. will convene in this city
at the Cumberland Street Church in it's
one hundred and eighteenth annual ses-
sion.
~ deep and absorbing interest is be-
Ing manifested by thousands in this
section, as 1t will bring into their midst
large numbers OF divines whom they
nave known in past years as pastors,
as we'll as others whom they have also
known as Methodist itinerants in Vir-
slnia. Bishop w. w. Duncan, so well
known here, will preside over the con-
terence. The Bishop was in former
years pastor of CRANKY Street, now
i,pworth Church, and the Methodists

n number of superanuated preachers.
: Many of the preachers and laymen

while some will have homes in Berkeley
and Portsmouth The delegates will
be furnished with dinner at the hotels.
1t is not believed that there will be
many changes in the appointments of
the ministers now in this section. As
it is likely. however, that there will be
change in the formation of the Nor
folk and Portsmouth districts. so as to
throw all the Norfolk churches-now
partly in each of said districts-into
the same district
At this session of the conference Rev.
DIR. John Harmon, one Of the ablest

NEW PUBLIC BUILDING.
HOLMES or WASH
INGTON HERE TO REPORT
ON IT.

There was an informal inspection of
the new Court House and Postofice
yesterday. Mr.. j. c. Holmes. inspector
of buildings connected with the Super
vising Architects Office at Washing
ton, was here, also. Mr.. w. c.. Noting
of Wyatt & Noting, of Baltimore the
architects for the building; also Mr.,
Unkefer. OF the contracting firm. Nell
vain. Unkefer Il Co., of Pittsburg
These gentlemen met n reporter for
the Virginian-Pilot and showed as
much OF the beautiful building as has
been finished.
None of the rooms are furnished yet
but nearly ali OF them have the inte-
rior finish, so that an excellent idea can
be gained of the color scheme, While OF
course the architectural scheme is fin
ished.
The gem of that scheme is the cor
tile, or light court That is on the
secor +, floor and is intended to give
light to the front part of the postottice
room on the first floor There is a gal
lery around the light shaft or the COR
tile, the roof above which is supported
by white marble columns. The balus-
trade and the fringe of the cortilc is
made of ornamented and colored fai-
ence. That is kind OF ware made OF
clay at South Amboy, n. j. the clay
binary terra Gotta. is burned twice. and
glazed. so that it makes q harmonious
finish for the white marble side walls
These white marble side walls and the
faience finish extend throughout the
building, and make it beautifully neat
and clearly.
AS there are parts of the iron stair
way, the large iron gates for the
Plume street doors, to be finished the
building is still in the possession of the
contractors. 1t Will not be formally
transferred for ten days or two weeks.
But it is practically completed except
as to few details.
Col. George f.. Bowden is the custo-
dian of the building. He will take
charge of it formally when Inspector
Holmes makes his report TO Washing
ton. saying that the building is finish
ed in accordance with the contract.
He said yesterday the people of Nor
folk should be proud of the building
because the government officials have
found no fault in il.
Mr.. Noting. the architect. said that
even the million dollar building in the
Baltimore postofIice did not have a
handsomer room than the court room
of this building

with the agency since 1851: in 1851 he
the became n partner, and in 1895 pur-
chased the entire interest, since which
time he was at the head OF the firm.
When Mr.. Dun first became connected
with the business it was in it's in

son OF his application for business. his

1890. Since then the number has been

prima facie evidence about coffee is
that the victims TO the habit find great

abandon the use of ii when they know
that it is shortening their days, but
morning after morning they fail, until
