CHANGE THEIR RULES.

Dancing and Gard Playing May Be
Allowed by Methodist Church.
Los Angeles, May ia question of
important bearing which has come
prominently to the fore in the Method
list general conference proceedings
during the past two days is that in
volving change of discipline to the
extent of entirely removing the church
ban on the pleasures of dancing, card
playing and theater going. 1t seems
not unlikely that the conference will
vote to remove the present rigid restric.
ton regarding the indulgence of these
recreations.
The subcommittee of the committee
on the state of the church, of which
Judge II. H. Sibley is chairman, has
reported back to the main body it's rec
ommendation upon this matter, in
which it urges a radical change in the
church rule on the subject, making it
simply an advisory restriction instead
of madnatory prohibition as at pres
emit. This committee is also consider
ing other important changes, among
which is one involving the ratio OF
representation in the general confer
ence. The plan which has been pro-
posed and which has met with general
favor would, If adopted, reduce the
membership of the general conference
from 748 to 500.

Reason to Believe the Japanese Now

Chicago, May ia special from

"When the Daily News dispatch
boat Fawn arrived off Dalny early Sat
urday morning a heavy bombardnent
was in progress.
'As the channel was thickly mined
by the Russians and the Japanese Ad-
miral Kattakao had issued strict orders
that ncombatants' boats were to be
excluded, it was impossible to get
within the roadstead. Hence an &C.
curate report of the proceedings is i'm
possible.
AS far as it was possible to ascer.
tain, the armored cruiser Yakumo,
four other crui sers, one gunboat and
one battleship, having cleared the
channel, entered the harbor shortly
after daylight and began heavy fire,
which was still in progress at noon.
'It is estimated that 10000 Japan.
ese troops are investing the town, and
there is every reason to believe that
they delivered the assault this after
noon and ara now in possession of the
city.
ut is understood that the landing of
the second army was completed Friday
at Pitsewo. There are now 200
japanese troops on the peninsula.

FILIPINOs PROGRESS.
Students From Islands Learning
Rapidly Over Here.

Students From Islands Learning
Rapidly Over Here.
Washington, May 1s.--The second
quarterly report of Professor William
Alexander Sullivan, in charge of the
Filipino students in the United States,
has been received by the bureau of in
sular affairs, war department. Prof.
Sutherland speaks of the satisfactory
progress made in their school work.
The present plan is to collect the stu
dents at some suitable place after the
school year is over and give them a
special summer course along the lines
where special work is needed, and then
after short visit to the st. Louis fair,
to place them in schools and colleges
in the central states.
The students, as far as known. have
expressed themselves as de,irous to
pursue variety of callings upon their
return to their island homes. Twenty
five per cent of them expect to become
teachers. Some desire to become civil
engineers, others desire to pursue a
commercial course, few wish to study
medicine, two are eager to enter Ann
apolis and then find employment in the
coastwise service of the Philippines.
A few deisre to study scientific agri-
culture, and it is suggested that they
be placed in some Southern agricul-
tural college in order to secure practi-
cal training in the cultivation of cot
ton, as well as an acquaintance with
modern agricultural instruments.
