Los Angeles, Cal, May 3.-Nearly
all of the delegates have arrived for
the General Conference of the Meth
odist Episcopal church, which is to
begin it's quadrennial session in this
city tomorrow The delegates number
about $50 and represent the three
million members of the church scat
tered Throughout the world. For the
first time in the 120 years history
of the church, women will hold seats
IN the body as delegates. This revo-
luton is the result of action taken
at the session of the general confer
ence held in Chicago four years ago.
In addition to the delegates the con-
ference has attracted thousands Of
visitors from all parts of the United
States who are interested in the pro-
ceedings.
Several subjects that are to come
up for discussion and action will rem
der the general conference this year
-
of far more than ordinary importance.
Among these are the proposed unifi-
cation of the publishing houses and
consolidation of the benevolences.
The subcommittee appointed. four
years ago to take into consideration
the proposal to unity the publishing
interests has prepared a report In
which it proposes that the publishing
interests of the church shall be con-
solidated into one corporation, which
shall consist of one publishing house
and three branch houses and five de-
positories. The publishing house and
principal place of business shall be
located in some central place conve-
nient for production and distribution.
The branch houses shall be at New
York, Cincinnati and Chicago, and
the repositories. at Pittsburg, San
Francisco, Boston. Detroit and Kan
sas City,
The scheme for the consolidation
of the benevolences includes the do
ing away with the one missionary
society, which now administers mis-
sions both at home and abroad. and
the organization Of separate home
and foreign mission boards. and a
third organization to have charge of
education. These proposed consolida-
tions involve q tremendous revolu-
ton. the outcome of which gives the
church serious anxiety. Many believe
them to be supremely wise and that
they will result in greater efficiency
and larger collections: others fear
the reverse. Readjustment of some
kind, however, is deemed necessary
and inevitable and the present con.
ference is certain to see important
changes in this direction.
Among other important matters
that will in all probability come be-
fore conference is the adoption bf
some plan by which better provision
can. he made for aged ministers and
the widows and orphans Of deceased
ministers. and q change in what II
known as paragraph 24S relating to
amusements and prohibiting meu-
bers .of the church from enEaging in

Third president Buckalew of The

M. Goodman. of Minot street. ans.

M. Goodman, of Minot street, Bos. ton, is showing his friends four legged hen which he purchased In Pittsfeld, Me. a short time ago. So far as known this is the only bird of It's kind in the world.
 You will notice," said Mir. Goodman to a reporter the other morning. that the tail grows on the right side of the bird, and yet does not interfere with the use of its wings.
 Two of the legs grow in the or dinary manner and support the body. The other two are perfectly normal. except that they grow backward in- stead of downward, and the feet are carried closed most of the time.
 "She weighs three and one-half pounds and was matched on May $ last" he added, showing the bill of sale As evidence
 The bird is of the Rhode Island red variety, and so highly does the owner prize 1t that instead of shipping 1t di- rectly home he kept 1t with him during a four weeks business trip.
 The chicken seems to be in perfect health, and, in the words of the own- -er, "she likes to have you watch her. See her strut"
