TWO TEAMS WERE
BURNED IN BARN
T he Methodist D istrict confer
ence com prising western an d part
of southeastern Oregon, closed
its an n u al session in this city Mon
day m orning just before noon,
giving the members a chance to
go north on the delayed passenger
train, w hich arrived at this place
at noon. It was declared to have
been one of the most interesting,
instructive, helpful and pleasant
sessions ever held in this confer
ence district and the members all
returned to the ir newly assigned
charges with nau g h t but praises
for Cottage Crove and lief hospit
able people; many of whom who
entertained guests not being affili
ated with auy church or were
members of other churches.
In every case the pleasure of
the occasion was enjoyed by host
and guest alike and m any warm
friendships were thus fonned dur-
in the session. T h e many elo
quent senpons and the elevating
moral influence shed in the homes
of this city by the distinguished
guests will leave a lastin g im pres
sion upon this com m unity, the
good results of w hich is hard to
foretell. Following is the assign
m ents m ade for the conference
