THE BISHOP ADMIRABLE.

With the election of officers and the
of committees for the con-
ference Bishop McDowelPs keen wit
and remarkable memory, evidences of
q powerful mind, was visible in his
slightest order remark. Though ne
sees the Northwest Conference but once
a year and presides at several others
in the interim Mcdowell knows the
pastors by sight, better perhaps than
any other. To this remembrance of
names and faces he adds knowledge
of their efficacy. personal traits and
aptibility.
The Bishops sparkling eye swept the
assemblage as in staceato tones he
named men to act for the ensuing year.
He made no reference to the roll call.
With the announcement by B. B. Kess-
Ter, Lafayette, secretary of the confer
ence. on the Bishops right hand. of his
resignation to accept a position on the
faculty of a Denver college, his re-
election to that office was made i'm
possible A H. Lawrence of Indian
apoils was named by the ministers TO
fill that vacancy after ballot. Lawr-
ence defeated E. B. Strecker of Cow
ington.
HUB MAN THE TREASURER.

barger was elected to the treasurery-
He will have as his assistants. r. II.
Crowder of East Chicago; r. II. Johns
ton of Indiana Harbor: G.. S. Reedy of

J. F. Kenrichof Bringhurst was made
statistical secretary and given the fol-
lowing assistants: d. E. holland, of

Charles l.. Harper was appointed by
the Methodist Book Concern. a publish
ing house that gives it's dividends to
aged preachers. to canvass for the

made postmaster.
THE BURNING QUESTION.
As there are to be a great many
changes in leading churches interest is
centered upon the appointments which
will be made known by the Bishop
Monday. 1t is then that the ministers
will know whether to sell or keep the
cow. But that phase of the conference
is not by any means the most absorb
ing for the reports of district superin-
tendents and the excellent addresses
during the discussion are given alb
sorbing attention.
E s Shumaker, the energetic super
intendent of Indiana's Anti-Saloon
League walked into the arms of the
press when he arrived in Hammond yes
terday. The memory of the recent Ham
mond convention of Indiana Disciples
Of Christ and their reputation of the
Anti-Saloon League because of alleged
affiliations in a political way is still
fresh in the minds of our church men.
NOTHING LIKE THAT NOW.
That he has business before the
conference Shumaker admitted cheer
fully but Just what this business IS to
be he did not stay other that that he is
not here to do battle.

DR.. BOvARD
BEGINGS HIS
TASK TODAY

A New Yorker, DR.. William S. Bovard,
general secretary of the Methodist
Brotherhood, a merged society of the
Wesley and s.. Paul Brotherhoods, now
extinct. arrived in Hammond this morn
ing and established himself comfortable
at the Hotel Nee.
The presence of DIR. Bovard was i'm
mediately felt. He is attending the
conference for the purpose of convert
ing the clergy and laity as individuals
to the cause of the Brotherhood and to
Introduce a new issue before the 62nd
Northwest Indiana Conference. So far
he has been very successful in a per-
sonal canvass
Business side of the Church.
The Every Member Canvass" a mod
ern way of doing church business Is
part of DR. Bovard's gospel and he viii
ask the conference that IT adopt the
canvass system and recommend it to
the church OF the five districts that are
under its control. BY the Every Mem
ber Canvas" each member of a church
will be drawn more closely to the body.
1t may eliminate the feeble Christians
who do not care to contribute to the
support of the church to a great extent
and will assure the preacher of getting
his salary.
Proven successful
Those in the Crawfordsville district
who have applied the Every Member
Canvass" will heartily recommend it to
the convention. Under that system
churches in that district appointed men
to go to the homes of each member
and talk with he or she as to tie H.
nances OF te church.
| DR. Bovard is one of the liyest wires
| of the conference and he expects to
make history. The affiliation of all
Rrotherhoods under the Methodist

conference body as near as can be de-
termined from the ministers.
