IMPEACHMENT OF SWAYNE
HOUSE TO CONSIDER THE RESO-
LUTON THURSDAY.
An Effort Will Be Made, It Is Said,
to Prevent Vote at
This Session.

Washington, April 4.-The Post says:
An agreement has been reached where
by the resolution to impeach Judge
Charles Swayne, of the northern district
of Florida, will be called up for consid-
Grafton in the house next Thursday. The
time is satisfactory to Mr.. Palmer (Pa.),
who prepared the majority report of the
judiciary committee in favor of impeach-
ment; and also to Mr.. Gillette (Cal)
who prepared the chief minority repo1e
against impeachment. Speaker Cannon
has agreed to Thursday for considera-
ton of the resolution. An attempt will
be made by some of the republican lead
ers in the house to have the matter re-
committed to the judiciary committee,
thus avoiding at this session vote on
the merits of the case. What they con-
tend is that simple justification for this
course has been found in the alleged
fact that the testimony as published by
the committee is not complete. The
charge is made that important papers
and afidavits have been withheld from
the house, and it will be insisted that
before the house is asked to vote on the
resolution it has right to all the in
formation that was before the commit
tee when it agreed. by vote of eight to
five to report a resolution favoring the
impeachment of Judge Swayne. If the
leaders fail in their effort to have the
case recommitted, they will endeavor
in some other way to prevent vote on
the merits of the case at this time. 1t
is suggested as an alternative PROPOSE
ton that day after the converting OF
the next regular session of congress be
set for a vote. The desire for delay is
not generally shared by members of the
judiciary committee. either those who
favor or those who oppose impeachment
Mr. Gillette, who prepared the report
against impeachment, said that he was
willing the matter should be disposed Of
at once on it's merits, after proper time
for debate

POLICE MAKE A CAPTURE.
Alleged Leader of Desperate Gang Of
Safe Robbers Located in
1 Pennsylvania.

Pittsburg, Pa, April 4.-Chief OF
Police Strayer, of Beaver, with Super
intendent Bradley, of the Fort Wayne
Railroad company. police, and several
officers rounded up Robert Fay, alias
Big Bob Frey, alleged to be one of the
most dangerous men in the country.
Friday night in shanty near Morado,
Pa. Fay is said to be the leader of a
gang of safe crackers who have been
operating in western Pennsylvania,
West Virginia and Ohio. Five mem
bers of the gang were captured at
Evans City last yeek, but Fay escaped.
He was located at the shanty of Edith
Henderson Friday night. When the
officers surrounded the place John
Kisser, alias Jack Crescent, member
of the gang, walked out with young
woman. He ran into the officers and
opened fire on them, which was re-
turned. He dashed back into the
shanty, where Fay was heading out
They refused to surrender and the
officers set fire to the shanty. Both
men were nearly suffocated when they
surrendered. There are said to be

taken up frozen from the cutters, the
spirit which is in them only fastening
the freezing, so that the carts which
are always sent round to pick up the
sailors when the crews of the men-of
war are ashore have to do their work
quickly. In the summertime, when
there is not the same need for hurry,
the men often lie about in cutters
until the afternoon. The word "gut-
ters' is used simply to designate a
certain part of the roadway; cutters,
as such, do not exist. The drunken
ness among all classes of Russians is
simply appalling; officers think moth

whisky as a modest "bitters" before
dinner.

In the winter time the bazaar is

Costly Meal.

John E. Wilkie, of this city, chief of
the secret service, entered the Office of
Assistant Secretary Armstrong in the
treasury department and said in dis
gusted tones: II ate a beefsteak the

The dentist looked me over and said
there were so many improvements nec-

Mr.. Armstrong listened to this tale
with severe expression. "Wilkie,"
he said, reproachfully, "you should eat
more regularly. Then you will not at
tack your food so voraciously."

Spencer No Linguist.

AS everyone know, Mr.. Herbert
Spencer was no linguist. His ill-health
partly associated in large measure
with eye strain-prevented him from
mastering German. He was similarly
ignorant of Greek, whilst his Latin was
of the scantiest. Nevertheless, his work
did not suffer so much as one might
expect from these disabilities. He was
so entirely pioneer-anticipated only
by the Ionian thinkers of rs centuries
ago-that reading acquaintance with
German would have been of little use
to him. On the other hand, his works
have been widely translated, the won

has played a peculiar and important

sGQ3M conference which opens at
y Ek Los Angeles, Cal, May 4,
.GA III will mark the one hundred
SN,WV and twentieth anniversary
~ of the organization of the
Methodist Episcopal church.
The conference will be composed of
about 720 delegates from all parts of
the world, representing a membership
of over three millions, and adherents
of about six millions more. The gen.
eral conference is the law-making
body of the church, and meets every
four years.
The Methodist Episcopal church is
the mother church of American Meth
odism, of which there are now IT
branches. These are united in doc
trine, the divisions all having been due
TO differences on polity. Together they
number (not including their members
In foreign lands) about forty thousand
ministers, nearly forty-eight thousand
churches, and about six million two
hundred thousand members.
The Methodist church in America
was born in Ireland. During one of
John Wesleys visits to Ireland he
preached to some French refugees in
Limerick county. A number of these
were converted, and in 1850 several
families emigrated 10 America, settling
in New York city. Among them were
a godly woman named Barbara Heck,
who became 1.-The mother of American

Methodism," and Philip Embury, a To-
cal preacher. This small band was fol-
lowed in 1765 by another party of Irish
Methodists, who seem to have become
'backslidden" Soon after the arrival
of the second party, Barbara Heck en-
tered a room and found number OF
them playing cards. She snatched the
cards, and threw them into the fire,
and exhorted them to return to God.
She then went to Embury's house and
told him he must begin holding relig-
ious services, saying: You must
preach to us, or we shall all go to hell
together, and God will require our
blood at your hands," Embury began
preaching at once, his first congrega-
ton consisting of five persons. A
Methodist society was formed and in
October, 1868, the first Methodist
church in America-John Street church
was dedicated.
Mr.. Wesley was informed of the rap
id growth of Methodism in America,
begun and continued in this unofficial
manner, and was urged to send men
who could devote their whole time to
the work. In 1869 he sent Richard
Boardman ard Joseph Pilmoor, and
two years later Francis Asbury and
Richard Wright. Asbury afterward
became the great leader. Many OF the
preachers were so strong in their SYM
pathies with the king that when the
war of the revolution broke out, they
returned to England, leaving their
fiocks shepherdless. 1t became evident
that as a result of the war an indie
pendent Methodist church must be or
ganized. BY authority of-Wesley a
conference of all the preachers was
held at Baltimore, Md, December "a,
1884. This is known as the Christ
mas Conference" BY it was organ
lied the Methodist Episcopal church,
and Thomas Coke and Francis Asbury
were elected superintendent of bish-
OPS. The technical title of Methodist
bishops is still general superintend-
ents." Their Episcopal jurisdiction
is not limited to diocese, as is that
of bishops of other churches, but ex-
tends over the whole world.
The Methodist church has always
been distinguished for patriotism. 1t
was the first religious body of the
country to recognize in its organic law
the new republic, and the first to pay
homage. in the persons OF its chief

old Peter Cartwright-menw who suffer-
ed and overcame every hardship in
common with their flock, and who, in
addition, tanned the wild and fierce
spirits of their fellow pioneers.
Being of the common people, the
Methodist church has been led to do
for them what their spiritual, intel
lectual and moral welfare demanded.
Official action was taken by the Meth
odist preachers in America to establish
Sunday schools nine years before Rob-
ert Raikes put his Sunday school idea
into practice in England, an idea
which was suggested to him by the
wife of Samuel Bradburn, one of Wes-
ley's preachers. Almost Immediately
after the organization of the church
steps were taken for the establishment
of school, and in 1887 Cokesbury COL
lege was founded. The Methodist Epis-
copal church alone now has SO colleges
and universities, SO seminaries and
academies; nine institutions exclusive
ly for women; and % theological insti-
tutions. 1t has built the largest de-
nominational publishing house in the
world. This was begun in 1889, with a
borrowed capital of over So 800 900, and
does a business amounting to about
three million dollars annually.
The M. E. church was one Of the first
to undertake foreign missions. Its
first bishop, Thomas Coke, died in 1914
while on his way to India, and was
buried at sea. In 1888 foreign missions
were established in Africa and later
in all foreign countries. 1t now has
in the various fields 552 foreign mis-
sionaries, LII native preachers and
about one hundred and thirty thou
sand members.
The quadrennial sessions of the gen.
eral conference are always interesting
and important. That to be held in Los
Angeles will be one of the most i'm
portant. Among the subjects to be
considered will be the proposed con-
solidation of the benevolent societies
the unification of the publishing houses
and the election of bishops. Two bish-
ops have died during the quadrennium
