Baltimore, May 5. From all parts of America and from foreign lands, clergymen and laymen of the Metho dist Episcopal church are thronging Into Baltimore today, and during the remainder of the month Methodist eyes In all sections of the world will be turned toward this -city. The quadrennial general conference, which will be opened tomorrow, Is one of the most Important religious Institu tions In existence. It holds the keys to all the Important offices of the church, Including the bishoprics, and editorships and the secretaryships, and is the supreme and only law-making body of the denomination. One of the most Important subjt'ets to come before the conference will be that of restoring a time limit to pas torates. Several of the largest con ferences, including New York and Baltimore, have declared In favor of the restoration of a time limit, and there is strong sentiment In other parts of the country in favor of such action. The present plan has not Inured to the permanence of the pas toral relation, or to the stability of the ministry; Indeed in some cases congregations have been more restive than they were under the three-year or the five-year limit. Then, if there were dissatisfaction with the minis ter, they had only to wait a definite time before a change would come au tomatically. Now they have to give expression to their desire for a change at the quarterly conference, when the question of continuing the various pastoral relations comes. up. More over, the very agitation of the possi bility of a change as a part of the routine program of the quarterly con ferences sometimes helps to beget dls satislactlon and so the local minister In some cases comes to dread the meeting at which he knows the ques tion Is to be raised. The practical outcome often Is that men stay less than five years and often less than .three years, and so the general restlessness of the church es and the uncertainty of the minis try arp not to any extent alhiyed by thA absence of all time llmlflLflons. Of course where relations between pas tor and people are mutually satisfy ing and there are many such In stances In Methodist aswell as In other churches any time limitation whatever Imposed by the general con feience is resented and heretofore the strong city churches, thus situated, usually found a way of retaining their mlnlnsters from period to period. May Remove Amusement Ban. Another Important question Is the proposed repeal of the discipline stat ute which forbids dancing, card-playing and theater-going, on penalty of excommunication. Such action has been demanded by the New Tork con ference. Doubtless the sentiment In the oast generally would, favor such action; while n the west and even In rural districts of New England, it would be viewed with considerable alarm, as being a concession to worldllness quite foreign to the spirit of the Methodist church. In the large cit ies the rule Is already practically dls-rega-ded and the New Tork confer ence delegates simply want to make the rules tally with accepted usage, thinking that In this day of ethical awakening, the church ought to square its professions to Its actual be havior by its profession. It Is a cheering showing which the official statistics for the Inst four years make. The Increase In mem bers U 374,338, or an average of nearly nlnty thousand a year, while 432 new churches have been added. to the list this year. This quite sustains the reputation of the church acquired through the famous remark of the late Chaplain McCabe to the effect that the Methodist church built a new edifice every day In the year. STOMACH HAS BECOME DEGENERATE Animals Are Healthier Because of Strong Digestive Apparatus. An Interesting Interview was re cently obtained with L. T. Cooper, the young man whose theory and medi cines have created such a sensation during the past year. Mr. Cooper, In speaking of the re markable success of his medicine, had this to say on the subject: "My medi cine regulates the Btomach. That Is why It is successful. The human stom ach today has become degenerate, and Is the cause for most ill health. In the horse, the dog, and the wild ani mals generally, you see no nerve ex haustion, no chronic debility. They in tint shut ud dav after day with practically no exercise, and they are not able to stun inemseives wuu ioou when their bodies hare not had enough work to lustlfv It The human race has been doing this for years, and look at the result half the people are complaining of poor health, not real iiinesfl int s. half-sick, tired, droopy feeling. They don't really know what Is the matter with them. "I know that all the trouble Is roused Bv weak overworked Stom achs. I have proved this with my medietas to manv thousands of peo ple in most of the leading cities of this country. -I expect to do the same thing In Europe next year. This is the real reason for the demand for my preparation." Amnnir thnnn who hnvn recently been converted to Cooper's theory Is Mr. Monroe Brown of 8 Hancock Street, Winchester, Mass. Mr. Brown has this to sa of hla experience with the new medicine: 'Tor over seven years I suffered with catarrh of the stomach, and for the past year I waa lame with rheumatism. I attributed this to my stomach trouble, as my cir culation was very poor. What food I ate would turn to gas almost at once. I 'would have a sensation of bloating1, and would have to belch frequently to relieve this. My heart also became affected, and I would suddenly Become dizzy and have palpitations. I was irprt an d dull and desDondent at all times. I lost a great deal of flesh, and was nervous and depressed. This went on for over seven years, aunouga u spent hundreds of dollars trying to get relief. "When Cooper waa In Boston B hpnrd a rood deal about his ideas On stomach trouble. Next, one or two friends told me tnat ma medicines naa greatly helped them. I purchased some of the New Discovery medicine. Today I am perfectly well; I sleep like a boya can eat anything and have no rheumatism or heart trouble. I no longer have any gas on my Btomach, and feel as I did years ago. No one could be more astonished by these facts than myself. They are remark able, but true. This Is Indeed a won derful medicine." The Cooper preparations have been more widely sold and discussed since belntr Introduced than anything of the kind ever before sold by druggists.

Chicago anar- ichlsts will attempt to hold an open Jair mass meeting tonight to com memorate the anniversary of the Haymarket Square riot In Chicago, May 4. 1886. It Is likely that the po lice will attempt to break up the the meeting, aYid a repetition of the Union Square riot in New York is feared. Seven policemen were killed and about 60 persons injured in the famous Haymarket affair. A monu ment marks the spot where the police men fell and the anarchist sympa thizers have also erected a monument. It Is In the vicinity of that memorial to their dead "heroes" that the reds hope to hold onight's demonstration. The Chicago riot of May 4, 1886, which culminated in the throwing of a bomb and the firing of revolvers at the police by the socalled anarchists was the result of socialistic leaders. Serious rioting had occurred the day before In consequence of the strike of the railway freight handlers and the efforts of other men to replace them. An open air meeting was called by the leaders In the old Hay Market on Randolph street. August Spies, A. R. Porsons and others addressed the crowd in inflammatory language. While the latter was speaking four patrol wagons, filled wfth policemen, were seen approaching. Three bombs were suddenly thrown among the police. They exploded In stantly and five policemen fell and many policemen and socialists were wounded. The police opened fire with their revolvers upon the crowd and the rioters returned their fire, also with revolvers A desperate fight fol lowed, but the police at length clear ed the ground. Two policemen were found to be dead, five mortally wounded and 24 dangerously wounded. Of the socialistic leaders, two brothers, named Spies. Samuel Field- en, Michael Schwab, Adolph Fischer George Engel, Albert R. Parsons. Os car Weeber and Louis Ling were ar rested. The original bomb thrower, supposed to be one Schnaubelt, was never caught. Ling committed suicide In prison by blowing the top. of his head off with a small bomb. August Spies, Fischer, Engel and Parsons were hanged as Schnaubel's accom pllces November 11. 1887. Flelden and Schwag were sentenced for life and Neebe for IS years. For many years a fierce controver sy has been waged over the justice of the execution of Spies, Fischer, Engel and Parsons. In a book on the sub ject the late Governor Altgeld of 1 1 1 i nols, declared that the hanging of the reds was nothing short of legal mur der. Many other prominent legal au thorltles have expressed the same opinion, while others equally eminent have defended the Justice and legality of the sentence. 30 days' trial 11.00 Is the offer on Plneules.
