M. E. MISSIONARY CONFERENCE
Spirited Debate on Increasing Amount
Devoted to missionary Work.

Spirited Debate on Increasing Amount
Devoted to Missionary Work.
Albany, N. Y, Nov. 1S.-At the ses-
sion of the general missionary confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal
church here yesterday spirited de-
bate took place on the question of
increasing the amount to be devoted
to missionary work in the south 1t
was suggested that it would be advis-
able to spend the money in quarters
where the Methodist Episcopal church
south was not engaged. These sums
were apportioned for missionary
work in the south: Among the
whites, $4,000; for colored people,
$41,10o
AS a result of special meetings held
In Albany and vicinity Sunday s13,-
405 was raised for missionary work.
Among the amounts appropriated
for work among the Italians and other
non-English speaking people was
1894 in several large cities.
A request that special secretary
be named to look after the interests
of the colored Methodists of the south
was referred with favorable recon-
mendation to the open door mission
commission.

bitter battles OF that campaign. Be
sides getting together the largest
number Of eolored voters that ever
marched IN a Democratic parade in
Chicago. he managed the monster
Bryan meeting that was held in
the south side Turner Hall at
the close OF that campaign. Mr..
Newly Is lawyer by profess
sion having entered the Chicago Law
School Nov. /, 1888, graduating with
honors with the class Of 1901. NE
successfully passed what has been
termed the most rigid bar examina-
ton ever held and was duly admitted
to practice in all courts in the State
Of Illinois by the Supreme Court, De
cember 10, 1901. Mr.. Newly is
prominent Knights OF Pythias,
Vice President Of the Alum
nj OF the Chicago Law School, Secre-
tary Of the Negro Democratic League
OF Illinois and a member OF various
social organizations. He is also a
close student Of municipal problems
and did much during the late alder
manic campaign towards explaining
the Municipal Ownership and Refer
endum questions to the colored voters
Of the SOth ward. where he then re-
sided.
Mr.. Newly was married, January /,
1899, to Mrs. Annie L. Curtis q prom
inent st. Louis school teacher. His
residence is at 1928 Wabash avenue,
in the second ward. His law once is
at I2S la Sale street, room 6.
II Is admitted at the present time by
all hands that IL the leaders Of the
Democratic party would have nomi-
mated an Afro-Ameriean Democrat
for County Commissioner two years
ago. all the commissioners in Chicago
would have been elected instead Of
only six, and for the success of
Democracy we hope the leaders OF
the party VIII not get the big head
this year, by thinking they can carry
this county without reckoning with
the Negro vote, and the best way to
do that is to nominate Lawrence New
by for one Of the commissioners of

HEALrH OF oITY ANp oouNTRY.

Statistics Show the Death Rate Il
Lever in the Former
The census statistics that have been
recently published By the government
have revealed the surprising fact that
the death rates Of cities are relatively
less than those for the country. The
proportion Of deaths to population has
decreased 10 per cent in the last decade
and the improvement is confined al
most entirely to the cities. This can
be traced to the improved methods Of
sanitation observed in all the progress
siVe cities, but almost ignored In the
rural districts.
The deaths from consumption form
a good example Of this attention to
health. In 1899 there were 245 per-
sons per 10000 inhabitants ahiicted
with this disease, but In 1900 this was
reduced to $50. Deaths from cholera,
typhoid fever. diphtheria, etc. were re-
duced to remarkable degree, but fatal
cases OF pneumonia increased from
1893 per 10000 In 1880 to 1918 in 1900,
being due to epidenics Of grip" and
influenza. Cancer, kidney and heart
troubles also increased.
The decreased number of deaths
from consumption. says the Municipal
Journal and Engineer, has had the
most to do with the increased length
Of life Of the average American, which
has risen from thirty-one and one
tenth years In 1880, to thIrty-eight and
tWo-tenths years in 1900.

The city OF Nantes, France. has
evolved an inexpensive method for
supplying food TO the destitute For
several years the city has maintained
kitchens where persons without money
may present tickets and procure 4
warm meal A dormitory has been
added to one of the buildings where
about 6fty people can be sccommo-
dated. For three nights these beds are
free % the same persons, when they
must make way for Others. During
the stay at the dormitory each one Is
given two meal tickets q day.
The kitchens themselves are only
open from Oct Is 70 April rs each
year, but the dormitory Is open all the
year round. Tickets emitting the hold
er to anything on the bin Of fare are
placed In the bakeries and tobacco
shops throughout the city. where they
can be purchased by charitably In
elined persons to be handed TO the ap-
plieants for aid. Meats, hsh and eggs
on the bin Of fare cost 2 cents a plate.
Beans, rice. etc, are cent.
The expense OF these kitchens has
been growing less each year, says the
Municipal Journal and Engineer. The
total expense for last year was about
1921. and the receipts 1870. The
privilege Of taking meals at these
kitchens Is not restricted to the desti-
tute. but many workmen take their
meals there on account Of the moder-
ate prices. A moderate substantial
meal can be obtained for cents.
