M. S. KELL, P. E. The ministers of the second Ohio district of the Allegheny- Ohio Con ference, are a hard-working, self sacrificing set of men. Most of them love Zion and are doing all in their power to build up the work. There were quite a number of good revivals during the winter. Church debts are being paid all along the line. We have just closed a fine session of the district conference a id Sunday-school con vention. They say it was the best ever neld on tne worK. Rev. Wm. B. Fenderson, S. T. B., is pastor of Avery mission, Allegheny City, Pa. This is a fine people and willing to do what they can for the general Church when it is made plain. Brother Fender son is growing stronger every day with that pjeople. He followed one of the best men in Zion, viz., Rev. Dr. Franklin, and, like him, made no big beginning, but started at the root o f the tree. Some men start at the tpp and you know the rest. He is the most popular pas tor of the two cities. Keep your eye on him. j He is a Holy Ghost preacher, a jloving pastor and a Christian gentleman. Rev. R. E, Wilson, A. M., D. D., the able pastor of St. John, Cin cinnati, Ohio, is the most popular and highly esteemed minister with the people in the Queen City. Having served four years, the church is most urgent for his re turn the fifth year. The church was renovated in early spring, frescoed and; carpeted at a cost of $250 or $300. The services are largely attended. Dr. Wilson is another Holy Ghost preacher. To know him is to love him. Let the Presiding Eider go there late or early, night or day, all you have to do is to sfcy what time or train and he will be at the depot. There are some men who would not think 'of meeting yjou, and if they happen to run across the Presiding Elder going to their place, would not of fer to carry his grip. He is a friend to the ministry. If in 1900 Zion should make more bishops, i the boys need not be afraid of ■ Robert E. Wilson. He is against i the election of any more bishops now, but if the Church needs them s I bring him out as a candidate from i the V\ est. Rev. A. P. Parker, B. D., is the hustling pastor of Washington, Pa. He went there, papered, painted and made Wrights chapel look like a new church. He is the right man in the right place. This is said to be a hard appointment. But he has had fair sailing. Hie ( Christian bearing and love for hie , work puts hpn before his people, , making it eelsy in his chrrge. t Rev. J. B,. Trimble is the faith ful and energetic pastor at Carne i gie, Pa. W hen he took charge, . he found thij church in poor con • dition, carpet worn out, and the whole church needing renovation. He went to work and needed re l pairs have jbeen made. He is a hard working pastor, looking after \ all of Zion’s interests. He is not the blowing kind, but does hie work quietly. His church is well in his hands. Rev. J. Stanard, A. B.,. is th< . faithful business pastor of Oakdale ’ Pa. He we nt IherC and did mor» >; in three months than had beer , done in 12 months. He placed ii A the church an organ costing $100 organized s. choir and otherwise - 1V i improved the church. He is the right man serving the right people. You cannot discourage him. He seems born to succeed. Rev. M. A. Mason was sent to Bellevue and did good work until the church was burned on January 2. He left the work and the church is without a pastor. I left Rev. Fenderson to oversee, assisted by Rev. H. L. Jones. We hope to get the church up before long. If we can build a neat little' house of worship here we will have a fine change to build a large church when the lot is paid for. Rev. M. J. Snow is the pastor at Sewickley, Pa. Having come there in June, I hope him good success, but there are many things in the way. The church has had three pastors since Conference. Rev. H. S. Hicks was sent from the Conference, but was removed the same week, and he had his friends. Rev. J. J. Moore came and made a fine start, but for some cause he wrote the Bishop to be removed. The church, however, had nothing to do with this. It was bis own matter. This is a good charge, a hard-working peo ple, and needs a new church. There are no better people to be found if the head keeps right. The Conference will meet here on the third Wednesday in Septem ber. Rev. W. H. Tyler is the ipastor at Bridgewater, Pa. He told the Bishop to send him back and we would save the church. The church is saved. That is all we have tc say.
