however, to obtoin reliable confirmation

croft was to have sailed yesterday from
Colon to Bocas del Toro, but the orders
were countermanded at the last moment
because of the report of fighting on the
coast. A letter was received at Panama
sometime ago from Captain Torres, COM

try, saying he had decided to cross over

floor of the Coliseum will seat about 5000

want seats on the floor. l expect at least
20, 900 to attend the convention and the
result will be that many will have to be
turned away. | am afraid that we cannot
admit more than 500 newspaper men, if
that many, to the floor. Ofcourse, all the

MEMBERS of the Wilmington, Del,
Methodist Preachers Association have
p~recipitated a discussion on dancing
1t is expected hat they will brin the
matter before the next session of the
Wilmington Conference, in Dover, in
March, and determine whether or not
the delegates to the General Conference
shall be instructed to vote for a more
liberal attitude on the amusement
question:" which will be one OF the
dominant subjects for discussion in that
gathering. One member thought that
the discipline should be amended by
the General Conference so as to read
that the church "advised and cOunselled"
against worldly amusements, instead OF
prohibiting them entirely. Another
member Of the association said he did
not see any harm in a little dance party
in a parlor. Others, however, were
uncompromising and believed in strictly
enforcing the discipline of the church.
The question Ofdancing and other forms Of
worldly amusements periodically dis
tract religious bodies. These assemblages
are hardly ever unanimous in their ex-
p%ressions of disapproval Of certain forms
of worldly amusement.
