showed the liberality of the average
Methodist preacher, but the same ses-
sion also showed another characters
tic. It showed that when his righteous
indignation is aroused he will fight.
The resolution read by ]. b. Cumming
and unanimously endorsed and adopt
ed by the conference on the subject
OF Sunday observance plainly indi-
Gated this, as the resolution is moth
ing short of declaration of war upon
certain elements unless a change is
made.
While Bishop Denny is proving very
popular in his administration, the ILL
ness OF Bishop Wilson is very dis
tressing to the members of the con-
ference and they are very much con-
cerned about him. He has not been
able to remain through a session of
the conference since his arrival here
and yesterday he was not able to be
at the church at all. It is the sincere
hope and prayer of the conference that
he may improve rapidly.
Ever notice what jolly, happy lot
the preachers are when they get to
conference? No matter how hard the
year may have been and how depleted
their finances are, if they can muster
up railroad fare to the conference
they are all right and you would think
to see them that they had had easy
sailing all the year. 1t may be that
these people who are suffering under
the delusion that preachers have an
easy time and don't have anything to
do have gotten this idea from looking
in upon Methodist conference.
Prof. c. P. Atkinson, of the South
ern University, was among the ar
rivals at the conference yesterday
"Bally," as the boys call him behind
his back, is looking fine and don't look
any older than he did ten years ago
He is too fine a fellow to get old, any
how.

mother. Upon request Of the citizens
Of Quincy he was offered place on
the Fire Department, but he refused
1t, to enlist at the call for volunteers
for the Spanish-American War. He
was one of the organizers Of Co. I.
Sth Ill. Vols, and served as 1st
Sergeant under Capt. Fred. Ball. He
was promoted to the rank of Second
Lieut.. on Oct. 20, 1898 and later COM
missioned as First Lieut.. in Nov. 25,
1898 receiving his commission from
Gov. Jno. r. Tanner. He served with
his regiment at Cuba.
Being of saving disposition, he
had managed to accumulate quite
sum of money which was invested in
stock company formed by the ex-
members Of the Sth, who were to go
to Cuba and buy land and machinery
to grow and grind sugar-cane. The

lost all that he had. But he had
learned lesson, and he again started
to work with renewed courage. He
was employed in bank at Quincy

won the respect and confidence Of his
employers. But he had made up his
mind to become a landowner, and he
moved to Petersburg, N. D., where
he formed a partnership with Mr.. J.

shop, billiard parlor and confectionery
store and were the only Negroes in
the town. After this venture he went
to Salt Lake City and worked for the
Pullman Co., running to Butte, Mont,
after leaving the railroad service he
was employed at the Elk's Club in
Salt Lake. Through his cores
respondence with a white friend Of
his, Mr.. Lester Wright, he was ad-
vised to take up a claim at Williston,
N. D., which he did. He filed his
claim and came to Minneapolis where
he resided with his step-brother, Mr..
J. G. Trevan. and worked for the
Great Northern Ry. His ability won
the admiration of his superintendent
Mr.. Chase, who sent him in charge OF
a Special Of sleeping cars from
Havre, Mont. to San Francisco. His
services were highly appreciated by
the party, and they sent letter of
recommendation to his Supt. which Is
on file in the office of the G.. N. Ry.
His ability had won for him the best
there was in the service, and he was
relieved at intervals, when he went
to Williston and worked his claim.
He began his farm life 1906, by
opening up acres of wheat land.
