Goldsboro, n. c., Nov. 23.-Bshop War
rem A. Gambler of Georgia, Will open tho
Methodist Conference in this city at nine
o'clock Wednesday morning. He is ex-
pected TO reach here Tuesday. While in
Goldsboro he will be the guest Of Mr.
f. b. Borden, ST.. president of the Bank
of Wayne, long 4 leading Methodist lay
man and leader in finance, manufactur-
ing and business in this city Bishop
Gambler is q native OF Georgia and one
of the newest bishops in the college.
He was q college president, is scholar
and thinker and is a man OF affairs.
Recently he has been deeply interested
in the work of his church in Cuba. He
has visited the island several times and
understands the conditions there, civil!
as well as religious, as well as any man
in America. 1T was under his leadership
that the Southern Methodist church es-
tablished the first church in Cuba, at
Cardenas. established by any Protestants
after the Spanish American war; He
has IN his quiet and business like way
raised many thousand dollars TO prose-
cute this mission work. Lying so near
to our shores, he believes that it is the
peculiar duty of Southern people to es-
tablish schools and churches there. HIS
Cody zeal in this work has already
borne mch fruit.
The session of the conference will be
held in st. Paul Methodist church. one Of
the handsomest and beautiful churches of
its size in the South. 1t is centrally
located, only two squares from the Hote!
Kennon.
The host of the conference is Rev. NJ.
Bradshaw, pastor of St. Paul church.
He is filling out his third year and IS
easily one of the most popular preachers
Goldsboro has known. He is studious
and earnest--a fine preacher and fine pas
tor-and his people confidently expect his
return here for the fourth year, though
he has grown SO on the conference tina.
ii is reported Wilmington and Raleigh
both would like to have him next year.
While the conference proceedings prop
err will not begin until Wednesday morn
ing the first exercises VIII take placs
Tuesday-the meeting OF the Methodist
Historical Society. The annual Grafton
will be delivered by Rev. John \. Cole,
pastor OF Grace church, Wilmington. He
does everything we'll and his address viii
be a literary and historical treat, wor-
thy of preservation.
