Friends Think it An Accident.
Especial to n. Y. Herald.)

Danville, Va, June 30.-Friends of
Miss Julia Sharp do not believe that
the young woman, who was found
dead in her room from a pistol wound,
committed suicide.
The Sharps live at Edgewood a
large estate. near Sharp, N. c., twen-
ty-fve miles from this city Mrs
Sharp and her daughters Misses Lucy
and Julia, practically lived alone and
managed a large farm, Colonel
Sharp, the husband and father, being
away a great deal of the time on bust
ness.
Miss Julia Sharp was really the
head of the house and protector of
the home. The three women being
white neighbors, Miss Julia Sharp
made it her custom to sleep with
pistol under her pillow. On arising
in the morning she generally placed
the weapon on the bureau for the day.
A small house party from this city
was spending a few days at Edge
wood, and larger party was expected
the next afternoon. In anticipation
of a busy day Mrs. Sharp went into
her daughters room about six
o'clock in the morning and called her.
She awoke readily and told her
mother she would be dressed in a
short while. She then appeared in
bright spirits.
Mrs Sharp left her daughters room
and had just reached her own room
when she heard the report of a pistol.
Hurrying back, she found her daugh-
ter dead and the pistol near her body
1t is SUPPOSED Miss Sharp was cast
ing her hand about for the weapon
under her head to remove it to the
usual place of safety, as was her GUS
tom, when it was discharged
Miss Sharp, who was accomplished
and attractive, was about twenty-six
wears old. She was fond of outdoor
sports and could ride and shoot better
than many men. The devotion exist
ing between the aged mother and her
two daughters was the subject of adj
miring comment by all who knew
them in their home life.

RINGS THE EARTH
Then to Zion Comes
Dowie, Greeted Almost
as Messiah.
(By the Associated Press.)

Chicago, June 30.--After trip
which circled the earth, John AleXan-
der Dowie arrived in Chicago today.
When the train pulled in at the La
Sale street station. however, there
were no cheering followers to meet
him. He sent word ahead that he
would not soil his feet with the dust
of Chicago.
Though many residents of Zion City
were busy all night making the finish
ing touches in the preparations for
the arrival of Or" Dowie, the en-
tire place was astir early today. The
streets were decorated with flags and
bunting Aside from a triumphal
arch, the tabernacle was the chef OBJ
ject of discussion.
The "arch of triHmph' was made
Of imitation blocks of stone. Each
block bore the name of city which
Dowie had visited in his travels Black
letters denoted the cities where DOwie
had been received, while the names
or the cities that had Stunned him
stood out in glaring red.
1T the sound of a whistle the en-
tire population spent two minutes in
silent devotion and then were given
six minutes in which to assemble Tor
{, procession which was to greet
Dowie
Ten companies of Zion f'ity guards,
10 men each, formed in line while the
so-called restoration host $500
strong, accompanied by surpliced
choir marched to the station.
Oh the arrival of the train at Zion
City, Dowie's carriage, a victoria,
trimmed with carnations, ferns and
smilax, conveyed the Doctor" and his
chief "oversecr" at the head of the
recession to the arch, the Zion brass
land furnishing music. At the arch
ten little girls stepped forward, robed
in white, with blue badges across their
breasts bearing in gold letters the
names of ten of the principal coun-
tries which Dowie had visited. The
children carried large punches of roses
which they threw over DoWie ald his
party. The gates of the arch were
then unlocked by the overseer who
returned to Dowie the key which, on
ms departure, Dowie had given to the
chief overseer. Addresses were then
made by Dowie, his wife and Glad
stone Dowie. The white robed choir
sang an anthem and DoWie went into
retirement to receive reports from his
lieutenants.

Quoted the opening devotional exer-
cises and presided over the meeting,
At roll-call ten of the eighteen min
listers in the district responded "a
their names; but only eighteen out OF
the seventy-tWo ay-representatives
were present. The heavy rains of re-
cent days will, it is thought, bring
about an almost full attendance OF
delegates, as the land will be too wet
to pillow for several days and the coun-
try members will be able to leave
their farms.
Rev. J. Marvin Culbreth was re-
elected secretary of the conference
The standing committees necessary to
complete the organization of the con-
ference were duly appointed.
Reports We're heard from the sew
eral charges on the Sunday Schools
EpWorth Leagues. and educational i'll
terests Of the church. The Sunday
school reports made showed an en-
rollment of $500. 1t was stated that
competent teachers are very much IN
demand, that many of the Sunday
schools had been organized into mis-
sionary societies and that all of the
schools, with two or three exceptions.
used Methodist literature exclusively.
Only five league charters were re-
ported, four from Raleigh and one
from Smithheld. A very great and
substantial interest in educational af-
fairs was reported.
The sermons by Rev. F. M. Sham
berger of Oxford station, and by Rev.
J. d. Pegram, of Granville circuit,
were very warmly received. The adj
dresses on the Epworth League work,
by Rev. j. M. Culbreth, and on Sun
day school matters, by Rev. w. il.
PuCkett, evoked considerable interest.
The services will continue Friday
when the work of missions will be
