AFTER PRESIDING ELDER.
Conference at Once EX0nerated the De-
: fendant on His Char cter and there
the Matter Ended.

Spartanburg, December IS
Charges were preferred in the
Methodist conference this morning
against the Rev. W.aP. Meadors,
presiding elder of the Rock Hill
district, by the stewards Of Trinity
Station who alleged maladministra-
ton and actions not becoming a
minister of the gospel.
There are two charges of two ar
ticles each. The charges grew out
of the holding of an election of dis
3 trict stewards on November II at
Trinity Station on the Rock Hill
circuit.
The first charge says "That DR..
SMeadors did violate his sacred and
solemn duty by refusing to conduct
the district conference in accord
ance with the true intent of the dis
cipline by declining to submit to the
quarterly conference the nomina-
tons for district: stewards until an
election to The said Offices should be
held blythe conference, and, further,
that while Mr.. Meadors did not
raise objection to the stewards like
IL to- be elected, he still refused to
nominate said stewards and with
out excuse deprive Trinity station
sof proper representation on the dis
nict.,
The second charge says Mr..
Meadors is guilty of improper tenn
pers, words a1.-. actions, in that he
referred to the actions Of some OF
the members who took part in the
nominations above mentioned as
escapers" and that he wrongfully ac-
c,sed certain members of laying
trap for him, and did violate his
Christian duty in failing to bring
about a settlement. The complain
ants closed their; formal complaint
by asking that their rights be pro-
.tected by the conference and their
beloved Methodisn to be vindlca-
ted.
In reply to this petition the con-
ference lost no time in passing the
character Of the accused thus COM
pletely vindicating him.

SHE STOLE A HUSBAND.
Miss Laura Percer, d Years Old, Elopes
81 with II Year Old.
Charlotte Observer.

Charlotte Observer.
The usual order of things was re-
versed last Sunday, when Miss
Laura, the 22-year-old daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. J. c. Percer'
who i've on North Caldwell street
extension, stole away with young
Ernest Tonberlin and married the
youth. The youthful husband is
the son of Mr.. and Mrs. w. James
Tomberlin, who are very wrathy
over the matrimonial episode.
It is an interesting story. 1t
seems that Miss Percer and Iom-
berlin had been spoony for some
time, but owing to the difference IN
their ages, their friends did not re-
gard the spell seriously: However,
Sunday morning Miss Percer' who
is the undisputed head of the tami-
", took matters in her hand. she
secured a turnout, drove by for him
who was to become her younger
half, and hied away to the South
Carolina line. In the natural course
of events Squire Bales received
his fee and pronounced his blessings
upon the couple.
Upon their return the bride nat
ura1l y took her husband to her par
ents' home, where they reside. Ii
is understood that the parents OF
the husband have not yet let thc11
wrath cool and the young man mas
not yet dared visit his people.

OF G. II. Cargill of this village, an electrician
in Lynn, Mass, has received a very fatter-
ing offer from London firm to go to Uru-
quay, S. A., and look after their interests
there. He has not yet decided, but from
business point of view the opening is very
advantageous one. wv. d. Sanford of San
ford Bros. is in Boston this week on bust
ness. The tannery is closed and it is fear
ed will not reopen again this spring owing
to the dull leather market. 1t makes hard
times for the men who depend on it for their
families support, particularly at this time
of the year. Many of the farmers from the
surrounding towns also miss the market for
their wood and bark, so its closing affects
business quite materially.

NEW HAVEN TROLLEYhEN
Still Talking for Higher Wages or
 Threatened Strike.

New Haven. Aug 11.-"The trolley men want more money. They deserve more and will get it if they can,' Is the substance of the remarks made by President James w. Burke. of the Trolleymen's union. last night, after the regular monthly meeting ill lnion hall. Orange street. President Burke stated that the men are not receiving 2lh cents an hour after the first year, as announced by General Manager John K. Punderford. and that no con ductor or motorman in the service Is getting that amount. He said that the men get 2O1z cents an hour for the first year. and after that 21 cents all hour. This the union men consider al- together too small, considering the amount of traffic in New Haven and the great increase in the amount or work. President Burke said p cents for regular work and 50 cents for over time work Is fair request, and the men earn every cent of it.
 "Is there prospect of strike should the Consolidated Railway Co refuse the demands made by the un- ion:" was asked President Burke. :.
 Its up to the men and they Will have the say he replied.
 The meeting was attended by l'o trollevmen. many who had planned on attending being detained on duty.
