troops from the regular service, at a
date. to be fixed some time this week.
There will be no. maneuvering camp
where the District miliuamen will be
quartered with the guardsmen of the
other States which comprise the East
ern division, as has been rumored.
|, This announcement was made by
Lieut.. Col. Samuel e. Smiley, adju-

CHURCH AWAITING
ANNOUNCEMENT Of
CHANGE IN PULPIT
Rev. c, v. REGISTER May
Come to Mt. Vernon
Place Congregation.

The Rev. DR.. G. V. REGISTER, presid-
Ing elder of the Baltimore district of
the Methodist Episcopal Conference,
will probably come to washington to
succeed the Rev. j. Howard Wells as
pastor of the Mt. Vernon Place NJ. f.
Church, who leaves the pastorate of
that congregation under the law
changing clergymen of the denomina-
ton to other charges after a four-year
term. Just where Mr.. Wells, who is
one of the best-known Methodist Epis-
copal ministers in the country, will take
up duty following the change, has not
yet been aScertained.
DIR. REGISTERS assignment to the Mt.
Vernon Place Church will not be def
nitely made until Sunday, March "a,
when the Rev. Bishop Murrah, presld-
ing at the Baltimore Conference, which
convenes in that city about that time,
comes to Washington to decide upon
the changes among the clergymen slated
to take blacei here.
The appointment of DIR. REGISTER to
the pastorate of the local church will
be received with favor among the MEM
berS of the denomination in this city,
according to officials of the church. The
Mt Vernon Place Church has the larg-
est congregation of any, church of the
denomination in Washington, and is
also considered one of tho weaithiest
Methodist Episcopal churches here.
Should anything develop before the
appointment of the Rev. DR.. REGISTER
Bishop Murrah, it is said that the Rev.
Dr. Prettyman, presiding elder of the
Washington district, will very likely be
appointed to the charge. The Rev. NJ.
d. Mitchell, of Lexington, Va, is slated
to succeed DR.. REGISTER as presiding
elder of the Baltimore district.
