ONE OF The DISTRICTS
MethodistS Lay Matter Over
Till Next Year.
CONFERENCE MOVES FAST.

Logansport, Ind, April 10.-Bishop
Mcdowell is the presiding officer of
the North Indiana Methodist confer
ence and he is using different tactics
than have ever been employed The
retiring Bishop, the Rev. Henry w
Warren was easy going, like his pre-
decessors but Bishop Mcdowell has a
spirit of strenuousness which is max
ing things move. Today he adopted
a different method Of examining min
listers than ever before used. 1t has
been customary to call each minister
and examine his record for the year
Instead of this Bishop Mcdowell call
ed the presiding elders and asked
them if any charges had been brought
against the ministers in their districts
Three elders were examined today,
they being from the Richmond. Wa
bash and Muncie districts. No charg-
es of any kind were brought for
ward.
4 movement was begun for cutting
down the number OF districts from
six 70 five. Definite action was post
poned til the next conference. The

Local Delegation Will See Gin
cinnati and Pittsburg at
Former Place.
INTEREST VERY GENERAL.
THE FORTUNES OF GLEN LIEB-
HARDT, A FORMER MILTON BOY,
WILL BE FOLLOWED CLOSELY
BY LOCAL FANS

The National and American base
ball leagues open their season on
Thursday and the weather permitting
there will be a good sized delegation
game at Cincinnati, when Hanlon's
Reds lock horns with the fast Pitts
burg bunch. The Cincinnati team,
which Richmond fans have been root
ing for for years, will present an al
most entirely new lineup and the on
ly familiar faces the local fanatics
will recognize are Pitcher Ewing, Cat
cher Schlei and second baseman Hug
gins.
Interest in the two leagues is gen.
eral throughout the country. One
week after they open, the various
class A leagues, including the Ameri-
can Association, the Eastern League,
the Southern League and others will
start and after them the smaller cir
cults, until in a short time the game
will be in full swing.
In the two big leagues, there are
few changes, except such as are made
each spring. Both the big leagues
promise closer and more exciting
races than they had last year, and it
looks as though both would carry out
their promises.
The fortunes of Glen Liebhardt. a
closely by local fans Liebhardt is a
permanent fixture on the Cleveland
pitching staff.
