The fni-oiina Annual conference .Methodist Protestant church will con vene in its "eighty-seventH session here tomorrow. This conference is the ohlcst of the denomination and with the exception of that of Maryland, it is the largest numerically. : It extends over all of North Carolina and in cludes small portions of.. South Caro lina and Virginia.- That which pecu liarly characterizes the .Methodist Protestant church is its representative form of government. The organiza tion and governing power begins with the local 'church, each qualified mem ber haing the privilege to Vote on all ((uestions and the right of appeal, and air officers of. all branches of., the "' church are fleeted by the people. In .01 legislative bodies there is an equal 'repr vernation ..of .ministers and lay men. In ther particulars the Metho dist Protestant church differs little '.from the Methodist Episcopal church .'( upuully :'. known in the south as Northern .Methodist), and the Metho dist Episcopal church south. The riithoilist Protestant church is a 1 ranch from the .Methodist Episcopal church, a result of a controversy in thu mother church over the question of rnututl right of ministers and lay men. . Uhile the president of the annual conference is '.elected each year, the constitution of the church provides that no man shall serve more than tivo successive years. P.ev. W. E. Swain, D. U., of Ash born, N. C, hay ing served the limit, this conference is compelled to find a new man. This necessarily will prove to be an inter esting part of conference. Out of the number of available men in question, the ballot of the first -day of confer ence only will determine who will oc cupy the position another year. The question of. providing for the new orphan' heme, which is now be ing built near High Point, will be an iu.portant feature of this conference. Thursday night will largely be given to this work. T.. A. Hunter of Greens boro, chairman of the finance com mittee, will have charge of this ser vice, lie and J. M. Millikan of Greens boro, chairman of the board or trus tees, and Dr. J. R. Reitzel of High Point, chairman of the orphanage committee, deserve great credit for the splendid way they have conducted this work. Kev. A. G. Dixon, pastor of High Point Main Street church, will con duct the young people's rally on Fri day night. P.ev. C. H. Hubbell, V. D., of Adrian, Mich., Rev. C. M. Compiler of Lynchburg, Va., and Rev. W. F. Kenrn. tt of Stokesdale, N. C will take prominent parts In this service. The conference has been invited to visit Elon college in a body, and to spend a portion of .one day as the guest of the coIkge. dining in the col lege dining room. This invitation wiH doubtless be accepted, Burlington having entertained the conference a number of times, has al ways made a favorable impression and those who have been there before are anxioiig to return. : During the entire year Pastor Thomas E. Davis and his energetic people have been busy pre paring for this event. A large annex containing Sunday school assembly rooms, class rooms, etc., has been built to the church auditorium. The class rooms will be used during con ference as committee rooms. The very large, enthusiastic and successful Ladies' Aid society of the church has the matter of entertain ment in hand. They are leaving nothing undone to make every visitor comfortable and happy. Letters Figure In Divorce. At the afternoon f-'-'on yesterday George Stepp was :-,iw:l a divorce from Mnttle Stepp. the' c -respondent being named as George Henderson. Certain letters alleged to have been writ', ii by the co-respondent to the defen ! Hi- Vi Introduced. The let ters v.-1 -composed in rather crude code and were somewhat affectionate. The p'aimliT testified that he and his wife were living happily at Montreat until Henderson put In his appear ance. - YV. Tt. Williamson, receiver of the Mt. Mitchell Lumber company, filed hi3 report in the afternoon In which various amounts .were recommended to paid to the creditors of the de fendant company, of which the court approved. The rest of the session was taken up with tho hearing of the case, .Ashe ville, Dray, Fuel and .Construction company vs. Southern railway. There are probably very few peo ple in the city who realize that the changes ocin made In the block of store rooms between the Langren ho tel and Walnut street on North Main will make of them one of the hand somest blocks of business houses in the city. There ase eight of these store rooms in all, two belonging to Hugh ijiMurbe, two belonging to John Nelson, two to Mr. Sibser of Hickory Nelson, two to Mr. Seizor of Hlckory The last named two of these did not have to be cut off in front as the others, but the owner has decided to remove them altogether and erect in stead of the one-story structures i three-story concrete and brick build ing there that will be one of the handsomest in the city. The work if under the supervision of Ed. McDowell and the construction work, begun In the rear, is progressing rapidly. The changes in the other six build ings are being superintended by J. K. Joyner, nnd considerable progress has already been made. Eight feet has been cut off of each one in the front and 40 feet added to the rear, thus making the building9 32 feet longer. A recond story is being added to each and the front will be finished in pressed brick and stone. Each of the store rooms will have a big plate glass front, and the upper stories will be partitioned into living rooms. The work has been going on for the past five weeks and all the ex tensions havo been made. The con tractors think that all the work can lie completed before the first of Feb ruary If weather conditions continue favorable. A new sidewalk will be h'.d in front and the street widened accordingly, making a straight line of fronts all the way down North Main street. . When completed this block will equal anything in the city, it is considered. BOWELS BAD, LIVER TORPID?

'10. A heated discussion Is raging before the Colum bia Historical society over the com mon use of the title "White House" for the residence of the president of the United States. One set has delved into history and declares that the title is one of contempt bestowed on the historic mansion by the victorious British shortly after they partially burned it in the war of 1812; others maintain that the name was given to the building in honor of Mrs. Martha Washington, wife of the first presi dent, whose girlhood home on the York river in Virglna bore it Already the society is divided into camps and an ombryotic movement to petition for the changing of the name of the building is bitterly op posed by the "pro-White Housers," as they have been designated.

He Insisted his contention was fully carried out by the record of the ancient Irian people as found In atone and wooden carving. ' 'There wcra 17 letters In the Radio alphabet, " he declared, "and they be gan with one dash, went up to five dnhes. then from five dashes down to on dash, ana then began the dots, very much the same as the Morso al-' phabet used In telegraphing." .' , . '. That awful feeling as though there were a heavy vcight on your stomach as though you had swallowed an enormous lump of lead Is caused by the failure of your stomach to thor oughly digest your foods. You may have eaten too fast or too much. Your stomach may be over-worked and tired out. It Is too weak to pro duce enough of the digestive juices necessary to take proper care of the food. Gases form and cause all sorts of agony. The stomach demands more pepsin, hydrochloric acid and other digestive agents which It la unable to secrete. Medicines arc not only worthless In cases of this kind but are actually In jurious to the whole "system. It Is theer lunacy to pour a lot of vile stuff Into the stomach drugs that havo no digestive power whatever. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain Ingredients that not only bring quick relief to Indigestion sufferers, but ac tually digest the food for the stomach. One of these little magic tablets taken after each meal will rest the stomach, revitalize the secretory glands, strengthen the muscular walls in fact, tone up the entire digestive system. No homo should be without Stuart's DyBpepnla Tablets constantly on hand. They stop all forms of Indigestion, such ns sour stomach, bclchlngs, hcarthtirn, diMlness, burning sensa tion. Iiranh. etc. After a brief course of treatment your appetite Improves. You enjoy your food more. You awaken every morning with a 'happy disposition. Life looks brighter. Your brain becomes clearer and your eyes sparkle with their old time snap and twinkle. You aro practically a new ;iiaon. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets ar sold by all druggists, at 60c a box. (Adv.)
