PoPuLAR LECTURES.

The fourth of the Slater hall course of popular lectures, which will be de- livered tonight at p. m. by Prof Henry c. Emery of Yale, presents an opportunity which no one who takes more than passing interest in the destfnies of the old world can afford to miss. Professor Emery will treat the present war from it's aspect as a war of classes. It is obvious that this involves a discussion of the fundamen- tai impulses behind the terrific strug- gle, and no one is better fitted to ex- plain and illuminate these relations of cause and effect in the making of mod ern history than Professor Emery. SeI- dom indeed is it possible for Norwich to hear at first hand the comment If recognized authority of national rep utation upon a topic of such universal interest. The indications are that the public is not slow to appreciate this unusual opportunity, and it is believed that a large audience will be attractei by the coincidence of so timely a sub- Ject with so forceful a speaker.

{ Boston. Nov. 14s-The convention of Methodist men representing all New England, which has covered the last three days, closing it's sessions at Ire mont temple in this city last evenAAg, was one of much importance.
 Surely no convention of it's kind and extent has been undertaken before and nothing of its kind can occur again in New England for some years.
 Conventions Object
 The object of the convention has been to secure greater efficiency in Christian work by bringing together a large array of expert talent both with in and without the Methodist denomin- ation on the one hand and to brign to. gether the largest possible representa- tion of the men of Methodism within New England on the other hand.
 Before the convention had opened it's first session on Wednesday morning there had been oyer 2.0O0 registrations and to this number others have con- tinued to be added until the total has approximated 2, 400 persons.
 One thing which has made 1t possi- ble to secure an array of talent at this time has been the fact that the general committees of the three great denom- national benevolences are in New Eng land this month. That covering the Freedmen's Aid Work was held in Providence two weeks ago. The one on Foreign Missions closed it's four days sessions last Tuesday afternoon at St. Marks church, Brookline, Mass The one which cares for the work Of Home Missions is to be in esssion over Sunday at Portland, Me-, continuing probably until next Tuesday evening These great meetings rotate from one section of the country to another, from wear to year, and it now seems likely that they will be held in the California section of the Pacific coast next year.
 The fact that almost the entire board of bishops is always in attendance at these sessions and also the other great connectiona1 officers of the de- nomination was used by the projectors of this convention to a very great ad- vantage.
 We'll Known Hero
 At the meeting of the committee on foreign missions in the beautiful St Marks church. Brookline, last Tuesday one of the sessions devoted to the memory of deceased members, who have died during the past year, con- tained references of peculiar interest to Norwich readers.
 The death of the venerable and much beloved Bishop Thomas Bowman at the advanced age of 97 was the occasion of a loving tribute The writer recalls that when he was but small boy and the session of the annual conference was 1nSId in Norwich at the Central church 0known as Trinity) in the year 1880, Thomas Bowman was the pres1d- ing bishop. He retired from active service in 1896 but lived to survive many of a later generation.

 Christianity Facing Dark Period.
 There seems finally to be a convic- tfon on the part of the great leaders of the denomination that notwith- standing all that has been accomplish ed in the past that Christianity is fac ing at present the darkest period in her history Nevertheless they believe that Christianity must meet the pres ent issues tand ultimately triumph. This convention was arranged as a medium through which to lay the re- sponsibility for future aggressive policy upon the heart of the church. If the signs are true, Methodism in New England is likely to manifest new life in a forward movement which will begin speedily all along the line.
