The increase in the value of church
property in the United States dur
ing the century has been something
prodigious. A recent calculation
shows that in the year 1900 the value
of all church property in this coun
try was 81 100000. In 1900 the value
of the holdings of the churches is
nearly S72o, 600, 900. This is striking
evidence of the marvellous moral
progress of the country.

MIR. R. O. BURTON DEAD.
Raleigh News and Observer.

Raleigh News and Observer.
Mr.. Robert Oswald Burton
died at Rex Hospital about
O'Clock Wednesday night. His
death was a great surprise to the
city, and great shock to his
friends, as it was not generally
known that he was ill.
Lis death was caused by a ses
we're congestive chill. During the
last summer he passed through a
very severe attack Of fever, but
recovered suffi ciently to allow
him to take charge of his profess
sional duties. From his recovery
until very recently he has been
actively at work, and has enc
gagged in very important litiga>
tion, appearing in several cases
in the Supreme Court and also
as attorney for the defense in
the Kilgo-Gattis trial at Oxford.
But during large proportion of
that time he has been unwell,
and it is said that when he de-
livered his argument in the lat
ter case he was in high fever.
On last Monday he again went
to Rex Hospital, and on Wednes-
day night he died.

The Comm. Conference.

The meeting of the Methodist
conference in Milbank next
month, beginning on the 10th,
will be an event Of civic import
ance as well as religious ex-
perience for the people, and a
generous ar d hospitable welcome
should be extended. To provide
entertainment for so large a
gathering will bring out the hos
pltable character of the people
and tax their accommodations,
but the splendid response that
has already oeen made to the
efforts of the ladies who are at
tending to the work Of securing
accom- mmodations for the min
listers, indicates that our citizens
are taking hold of the matter
with determination to make the
conference a success SO far as
their part of it is concerned. Let
there be generous welcome ex-
tended. It will require the
hearty cooperation Of all our
citizens to meet the demands
that will be made upon the city
for accommodations.
