Willis W. Cooper Of this City to Head
Wisconsin Lay Delegation to Gen.
eraI M. E. Conference.
LEAN LEADS OTHER MINISTERS.
Milwaukee District: to Have the Control
of Delegation of the Great Methodist
Gathering at:Los Angeles Next May

Park Avenue M. E. church will hold
commanding position at the general
conference of the Methodist Episcopal
church, which will be held at Los
Angeles next May, as Willis W.
Cooper, the well known Kenosha
church worker, was elected Friday
night to head the Wisconsin Lay Dele
cation to the big field meet of Method
ism. ]. S. Lean, the presiding elder
of the Milwaukee district, also well
known in Kenosha was selected as the
leader Of the ministers in the confer-
ence.
The election of Mr.. Cooper as the
leader of the Wisconsin delegatio of
laymen will give him a commanding
position in the conference. and he will
have much to do in the shaping of the
policy Of Methodism for the next two
years.
Mr.. Cooper is one of the best known
members of the. Methodist church in
this country. His great work as the
leader of the Twentieth Century
Movement" placed him at the head Of
the laymen Of the church in this
country The other members of the
lay delegation to the conference were
E. A. Edmunds, of Rhinelander; H. A.
Larsen, of Waupaca; Emmett R. Hicks,
of Oshkosh. The alternates were
Leander Ferguson, of Brandon; John
Moss, of Milwaukee; A. J. Rich, of
Horizon and William Larsen of Green
Bay. The delegates elected from the
ranks of the ministers included w. S.
Lean of Milwaukee, George FL. Trevor,
of Whitewater and DIR. Milton S.
Terry, of Evanston.
Kenosha has large delegation at
the annual conference and most of
them will remain over Sunday in order
to hear the appointments read on Mon
day. There is little reason to believe
that there will be any change in the
pulpits in this section. The people of
Kenosha have unanimously asked for
the return of Rev. w. w. Stevens to
the pastorate Of Park Avenue Church
and there will probably be no change.
However Mr.. Stevens has been sug-
gested as one of the possible appointees
to the Appleton District as presiding
elder . nd should this appointment be
made new man would be sent to the
Kenosha church.
It is expected that a number of
changes will be made among the
smaller churches in the county but in
most cases the ministers who served
last year will be returned for another
year.
The conference will probably close
on Monday evening with the reading
of the appointments for the year.
Kenosha has stood high in Metho-
dism during the past year and the re-
port from the Kenosha church was one
Of the best sent to the conference.

Town of somers Decides to Open Road
Through the Balm and Rice Farms.
A road is to be laid out through the
Balm and Rice farms, fronting on
Grand avenue. This fact was def
nitely decided upon by the town Board
of Somers, at its last regular meeting,
and steps will be taken to secure the
immediate opening of the road. 1t is
expected that the owners of property
along the proposed route of the road,
will contest the action of the board
and it is possible that long legal
fight will be the outcome.
The road will extend a mile south
from the Burlington road on the line
between the farms owned by S. T.
Rice and the Balm estate. The town
board :has awarded to each of the
property owners, damages to the ex-
tent of SIS, holding that the opening
of the road would be great benefit to
the property as it would permit the
subdivision of their farms into lots
which could be readily placed on the
market.
The assessor has valued the property
of Mr.. Rice at $3.50 an acre and that
of the Balm estate at $3.50. Each farm
will have to contribute two acres for
the opening of the road and for this
reason 1t was expected that the DANA
ges allowed would be much larger.
Neither of the property owners are
satisfied with the award, but as yet no
action has been started in the courts
to prevent the opening of the road.

ZION GETS FREE DELIVERY.

Announcement Made That the New Town
Will Have 1t by December LIST.
Under orders issued by the postmas-
ter general Zion City is to have free
delivery service beginning Dec. l.
Dowie does not figure in the app1ica-
ton papers. The extension of the
service was made on the recommends
ton of the local postmaster.
The establishment of free delivery in
city within three years after the
town was started is perhaps unpre-
cedented in the nited States and the
announcement Dthat Zion has been
given it, shows what truly remarka-
bic feat has been performed there.
For some time it was known that a
move was being made to get free de.
livery but it was not really thought ii
would be granted so soon.

any ordinary "bum," and rebelled
strongly when the jailor turned the

vengeance on all connected with his
arrest and Imprisonment. The charge
placed against him was violation of
