QUAR- TERLY CONFERENCE

Ensley, November 13 = Special. A street force is engaged in putting down stone crossings at the principal street crossings in the city. This is an impor- tant improvement, and will be extended to most of the principal streets in the business section.
 The question of paving the streets in the business section has been under con- sideration for some time, and 1t is pos sible that this work will be done in the near future.
 The present city administration has done an immense amount of work in the way of public improvements, and has ex- tended new streets and built new side walks in almost every direction. Ensiey boasts of more and better paved side walks than any city in Alabama for it's age, and the city officials are ambitious to make it the best in the south.
 Quarterly Conference.
 The fourth and last quarterly confer ence of the First Methodist church of this city will be held at the church next Thursday night.
 It is said that the showing to be made in all departments of the church work for the year will be very fine. More than 100 admissions of new members have been recorded for the year. The financial showing will be very gratifying.
 The Rev. K. F. Whitten, who has been in charge of the church as pastor for the past year, has done faithful service. and is highly esteemed by the people of all denominations in Ensley
