This fashion seems to have come
into vogue because of the well known
fact that pearls, in order to keep their
exquisite luster, should be worn next
to the skin.

Monday night While Bernard Berg
and Henry Howe were sorting some
eggs in the warehouse of the S. P.
Company, which had been broken by
the truck tipping over with 11 cases,
it was noticed by S. Br Berg that there
was a light in the freight house and
it was supposed that there were rob
bers there. Dave Sheppard, the mar
shal, was notified and he, with Mr.
Clancy, guarded the doors while Mr.
Stollings went after Mr. Irwin, the
agent. Mr. Irwin explained to Mr.
Stolling3 that the boys were in there
sorting eggs but he said they had
watched them some time and it could
not be. The agent went with Mr. S.
to the depot and found that while Mr.
Stollings was after him Bernard and
Henry had started home, each carry
ing an egg case. Dave, supposing this
to be a robbery of a box of goods
apiece, ordered them to hold up their
hands, which they did all in fun, sup
posing it to be a joke, but it proved
to be a wise move as Dave would have
shot them had they not done so. It
was a narrow escape for the boys but
wa. are rejoicing that no one was in
jured. C. G. Tull is on the sick list.
POTATO MARKET
FAR FROM ACM
Everywhere in the country a very
slow tone is showing in the potato
trade. Expectations of holders for an
improved market have thus far fail
ed to materialize.
Business passing at country points
is of small moment So far as the
outside call is concerned, there is
practically nothing doing. It is now
asserted that the big California boost
ers, instead of purchasing supplies
are trying to unload their accumula
tions. Quite liberal purchases made by Cal
ifornia speculators are still retained
at Ore eon country points and these
are the stocks that the artificial
pricemakers are trying to unload.
Most of the stock is being freely of
fered at from 50c to 60c per cental
less than offerers 'paid farmers.
The situation in California contin
ues so congested that the trade .there
sees no hope for any immediate im
provement. Best potatoes are nom
inally quoted as high as $2.35 in the
San Francisco market, but is stated
that little stock is moving beyond $2
$2.15, and some is offered for less.

MINNEAPOLIS, May 2. Criticism
of the condition which enabled the
church to gain "less than 2 per cent
in its membership in the last year,"
and charges that the church press
was being used as "a free forum by
the promoters of disaffection" were
made in the Bishops' report to the
quadrennial general conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church today.
The report, known as the "Episco
pal Address," was signed by 18 Bish
ops in this and six Bishops in foreign
countries and is regarded as the most
important document to come before
the conference, as it contains the
Bishops' recommendation for the fu
ture guidance and policy of the
church.
The report was read by Bishop Earl
Cranstan, of Washington, D. C. An
other section upon which the Bish
ops have been at work since last gen
eral conference at Baltimore four
years ago, will be delivered tomorrow.

N
ty and let the army dissolve into
antique ecclesiastical camps."
This was a reference to the propos
ed limiting of the activities of the
Bishops to a local district Their jur
isdiction now is universal. Some of
the reasons for the meager growth as
set forth, were laid to a too strict'
application of the law of the church
demanding that all members who re
move from a given commuity without
their church letters be dropped from
membership after one year.
"A fair calculation," the report said
"reveals the astounding fact that prob
ably not less than 500,000 members
disappeared from our rolls by reck
less use of the 'dropping' process.
"Nevertheless we still face the pat
ent fact that our distinctive doctrines
are not being emphasized as they
were once, or, where preached, are
discredited for the time by a gain
saying world, drunk with vain phil
osophies and filled with gluttonous
indulgences."
Pleading for an emphasis on the
distinctive Wesleyan doctrines, the
report said they were the only power
to save the nation against vice.
