GERMAN BAPTISTS
10000 In Attendance at Annual
Encampment.

Harrisburg, Pa, May Colt is es
timated that the attendance at the
annual conference OF the German
Baptist Brethren in session here has
now reached 90, 900. The visitors come
from all parts of the United States
and Canada and from missions in 9th
er lands. Today the business Of the
conference was got we'll under way.
1t is evident that the conference Is to
be of more than usual interest as
number of important questions are up
for definite action. Among these are
life insurance and the position OF the
church in regard to divorce. Hereto
fore the church has prohibited its
members from insuring their lives,
but of late years n more liberal senti-
ment has spread among the younger
element and there is now strong de-
mand for a removal or modification OF
the prohibition. Another question
which is likely to provoke interesting
discussion was first raised in the Tex
as and South Louisiana district. IL
is an overture urging that the name
bunker or "Dunkard" be excluded
from publications issued by the Breth'
rem Publishing House.

YOUNG STUDENTS TRIAL
Charged with Exploding Stick OF
Dynamite which Killed
N r1an

Buffalo, N. Y, May 10. The case
of Gabriel Bishop, young student
charged with manslaushter, was call
ed for trial today in the Erie County
Supreme Court. The trial promises
to be one of the most interesting that
has been before the local courts In q
long time. The case itself is q pc
ouliar one. Young Bishop is charged
with causing the death of a young
man named Austin ON the night OF
July =, 1890 at camp on Lake Cuba.
1t is alleged that Bishop caused q
stick CT dynamite to be exploded near
the camp, with the result that Austin
was killed. While the evidence ag
ainst Bishop was purely oircumstan-
tial, the first trial resulted In finding
him guilty of manslaughter. The de-
oision was reversed on appeal and
new trial ordered Bishop is the son
of one of the most prominent and
wealthy families in Western New
YORK.
He is at present attending the Uni.
versity of Michigan, where he went
after being denied admission to Cor
nell University while the present
charges are hanging over him.

tion.
The textile school, erected at a cost
of about se5, 600, has already produced
q substantial result in awakening in
terest in textile manufacturing indus
tries in the state and the point has
been reached where confidence is felt
that ere many years pass by the en-
tire cotton crop of Mississippi will be
converted into finished products by
home mills.
At the close of the next scholastic
terms the textile school will turn out
large number of graduates who are
now taking the two-year course at the
institution, and this will give an adj
ditional stimulus to the industry as
the graduates 90 out into different

r1ICHIGAN REPUBLICANS
rIeeting of the State Central
Committee.

Grand Rapids, Mich, May 90. The
r epublican state central committee,
at the call of Chairman Diekema, is In
ssseion here today to arrange for the
state convention to nominate oandi-
dates for governor and other state Off
Gals to be chosen at the next election.
1t seems to be understood that the
convention will be held in Detroit
this year and it is probable that an
early date will be chosen An early
convention will be an advantage to
Governor Bliss and his followers, or
so it is regarded, as it will lessen the
time in which the opposing faction
can gather recruits.
