METHODISTS TO WILLIAMS

The annual conference of the NJ B churches which was held last week in Phoenix selected Williams as their next meeting place. There were several other towns after the honor and at one time resolutions were passed selecting Mesa as the place of next meeting, but through the untiring efforts of the Rev. D. Roberts these were re-considered and Williams was finally chosen.
 In presenting the claims of Will jams as one of the most appro- priate places in the territory for holding conventions and meetings of this nature the Rev. MT. Roberts awaited until mid day when the delegates were complaining of the hot sun. and then spoke of the cool mountain air in Williams where people never suffer from the heat, also in glowing words he described the gorgeous scenery surrounding the city, etc. Immediately after his speech motion was made and unanimously carried giving Will ms the honor to entertain the con- ference next year.
 The Rev. MT. Roberts returned h,me on No. 2 Monday evening, having been appoined by the con- ference as pastor of the Church in Williams a fourth time. He was glad to return here and the mem- hers of his church are glad to have him back.
 Already plans are being laid for the entertainment of the next con- ference. The Williams people in- tend to give the delegates the most royal reception in the history of the N. E. Church in Arizona.

the story Ia true or not theasuspicion is
at least significant. In I54 b. G. two
noble ladies' wives OF men OF consular

OF their own relations. Though the evil
dence in these cases is not satisfactory.

tendency among women Of the highest
rank to give way to passion and excite

austere life Of the family and with the
mental comforts supplied by the old
religion and was ready to break out into

for a moment deny that the men were
equally to blame.
1t Is q fact beyond doubt that in Rome
neither Law nor custom exacted oonjugal

In a secluded part Of the cemetery
that afternoon Richard Chailoner
stood alone beside a grave which was
marked by granite headstone bear
ing the name OF his father. So occu-
pied was he with his own gloomy
thoughts that he did not notice the
timid, hesitating approach of Dorothy
Brant until she was within a few feet
OF him. He Strengthened up then, and
greeted her with a solemn, courtly
bow, while his cheek flushed. The girl
was very pale. and her eyes were red
with weeping. She carried an armful
OF roses. which she silently and rev
erently deposited on the dead confed-
crates grave. Then. facing the man
opposite with a look of plying appeal.
she took from her bosom a letter and
handed il across to him.
