is opposing the selection of Vice President
Fairbanks as a delegate to the ouadrennial
conference of the church. to be neld in May,
1903, on the ground that he caused cock
tails to be served at the luncheon to Presi-
dent Roosevelt when he was here at the
Lawton monument dedication.
1t is said that Mr. Fairbanks wants to
be a delegate. Next May would be an op-
perfume time for Mr.. Fairbanks to appear
as a member of great religious body. his
friends think, but the fact that cocktails
and wine were served to his guests will
have an important bearing, as the Metho-
dist Church is one of the strictest of de-
nominations.
The luncheon has already caused great
agitation in the prohibition party The
state official organ, the Patriot Phalanx,
yesterday contained a bitter story of the
meal The Phalanx says that before the

Lord Harry Stanley, actor, who met.

Oxford yesterday morning as mysteriously
as he came. That he walked is certain, but
by what road or to what place is unknown.
His departure was unexpected. Wednesday
he took a position behind the counter of a

at penny arcade. amassed 81. He stayed
at the best hotel in town and every one was
anxious to treat him.
Yesterday early he wrote letter to his
wife, telling her of his great good fortune.
Then he called her by phone. He was
heard to say: Hello, Irene, l have seven
dollars and want you to come see ME
right away" Evidently, however, the wom-
an was not greatly impressed. At any rate,
she evidently refused to come to Oxford to
see her husband. His 'lordship" renewed
his call, but all to no purpose. Lady Stan
ley had apparently awakened from her
day dream and decided to stay in the COM
Portable house which had sheltered her for
so many years. Her friends have talked
earnestly to her.
u cannot come to see you was the
ultimatum over the phone, and Stanley,
not caring to take chances with her irate
brothers by going to Calvert, forced
to say good-by. Shortly after he disap-
