Maauoketa. Oct. 5.-The work of the
conference is progressing nicely. The
possibility of many changes in pastor
ates of the moderate grades
is increasing rather than diminish
ing. 1t is a foregone conclusion
that there will be a large number OF
changes, perhaps more in one year
than for many years.
DIR. Hayward, of the Porto Rico mis-
sion who made such splendid i'm
preston upon the conference yester-
day by his presentation Of the neces-
stiles of work In his field, left for st.
I,aul in the evening. During his adj
dress he said he could use three young
naen and said IL any wanted to so from
the Upper Iowa Conference. to see
him. During the afternoon he was be-
sieged with applicants, and will prob
ably find his three men here.
The presiding elders report of dis
trict work showed the aggregate of
conversions during the year to be about
$500. more than for a number of years.
The accessions to the church will
hardly reach this aggregate. The ten
dency In regard to salaries has been
upward church debts have been liqui-
dated, new churches and parsonages
built and general prosperity has pre-
vailed
The women's missionary societies
occupied the attention of the confer
ence yesterday afternoon, able adj
dresses being made by Misses Simonds
Woodruff, mission secretary. In tina
evening DIR. Anderson, secretary of the
educational board, and DIR. Lewis, pres
ident of Morningside College, made in
teresting addresses.
The Epworth leagues, the missionary
societies, and the ladies' aid societies
have all done great work. Only five
charges on the district now pay less
than $500 and the indebtedness for the
year will aggregate s37,43O. Old debts
to the amount of $7,732 have been
paid. Only $3.50 in debts now remain
on the district; and all of that save
$3.50 is on two churches The leading
charges to pay debts have been Mar
shalltown, $4,000; Reinbeck, $1,000, and
Geneva, 5000. Improvements amount
to nearly $4,000 of which Mason City
has $4,000 Sheffield $3.50, Belle Plaine
s2.4sO, lama $4,000, Reinbeck $1,122
and Geneva 800.

as Mean. Of Avoiding Destruction

to Tlmes-R Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Ames, Oct. 5.-The first class scrap
to be sanctioned by the college faculty
occurred at the Iowa State College last
night, between the freshmen and soph-
omore classes, For several days trou-
ole has been brewing between these
classes in preparation for the custom
airy scrap at the time of the annual
harvest home excursion. In an en-
deavor to avoid the brutal features of
the scrap the Cardinal Guild, the stu-
dent body council, negotiated for terms
of peace with the two classes, and sue
ceeded in bringing them to an agree
ment that they would each stand by
the result of a fair two-hour fight, no
clubs or weapons to be used. Accord
ingly large sign containing a "'09'
was erected in the athletic field, and
the sophomdres stood guard, while the
freshmen made rushes in an attempt to
paint out the numeral and substitute
therefor a CO. After about half an
hour of work the freshmen succeeded
in blotting out the figure and placing
their 40" on the board, After that.
the time was spent in an endeavor by
the sophomore class to replace their
numerals, but, they did not succeed.
and at 10 o'clock the crack of a pistol
stopped the fight, with the freshmen
victors
This victory entities the freshman
class to keep their numerals and colors
flying on the campus during the ex-
cursion days, Friday and Saturday.
The freshmen outnumbered the soph-
ignores by great odds. Many Of the
best men in the sophomore bunch were
held down by from three to five fresh-
men, while the fight progressed.
Some half dozen men were taken to
the hospital during the fight, but none
are reported seriously injured.
This fight was sanctioned by Presi-
dent Storms and the college faculty
as a method to avoid destruction of
college property and the continual con-
tention between the two classes. DR..
Storms states that it is an experiment,
but will become permanent if it solves
the problem, and if both classes abide
by the terms laid down.
