The annual conference of the K

l onft i-eiicc coincnes in this city this
evening. The ineetini;s will be held in
the IMcnton Street Mctho-li-t Church.
The two hunilred or more delegates
who will be in attendance will be cn
lertained at the homes of the ISuleich
'Methodists. These homes have been
thrown open for the reception of the
visitors of the week and there will be
nothing overlooked in the efforts lo
ffive a royal jjtmmI time lo the i-itors.
The dclcfrates will be luitertained al
most exclusively by Methodists, the
privilege bcinir claimed by members
of that denomination, though hun
dreds of homes of other denominations
arc at the disposal of the committee
on arrangements.
The delegates to the conference,

Tin1 pates of the city have been
thrown open to them and the freedom
of the city is 1 heirs.
It is the wish of every citien of
Kaleigh that their stay he pleasant
and their visits often. The welcome
will be always ready for the no! I-.'
young men and women who are this
week guests of the city.
HOW TO PROCEED.
.Inst what is the wisest course o
be pursued at this time by those wh i
have the matter of the ertetion of an
auditorium in eharg'e is a tpics'ion
that is giving some people a. de;l of
food for thought. A suggestion lun
been made that it would be wise. for
the subseri Iters to stock to meet as
soon as the necessary Slu.unn lias been
secured and then formulaic plan- lor
the future.
The movement has so lar be: n :,
great success. This has been due to a
great degree to the energetic men v ho
were appointed to canvass the city for
subscriptions, but no man or number
of men could have so successfully can
vassed Raleigh without a cause 1,1
which every citien is deeply inter
ested and which is so vital to the fu
ture welfare of this city.
f.ct the men who have the matter in
charge get together and decide on the
next step to b taken anil as soon ar it
is MRsibl get to work on the audito
riuin proper.
One thing should not be forgottci.
There are a number of men who haie
done a good deal of lalking about t'-e
necessity of an auditorium ami who
have cried down every plan that i:.-s
been suggested, at times poor sugges
tions, but not always. Of this number
there arc more than several w In se
names are conspicuous by Iheir ati
senee from the list of subscribers.
Any man who has the welfare of
Raleigh at heart, will, if he is able,
make some effort to assist in tin. un
dertaking. HOW A SCHOOL FUND IS RAISED.
Here is the way the people of Cali
fornia po about raising-a public school
fund:
(1) The Stat- leties a direct tax.
which may not be lesn than sufficient
to raise an amount equal to $7.00 for
every child of school age; a $2 oll-tax
und other taxes and appropriations
raise thin to $9.43 for a child. (2)
Each county is required to levy a
oounty school tax which shall not be
Jess than sufficient to raise an amount
equal to fl.00 for every child of school
.age. "From these sources is raised a
minimum of S15.43 for each crtiltt (3)
, If this is not sufficient to rem the
schools the required time (the average
length of school term if 172..Joys),
any school district may vote an addi
tional tax of 30.ee.nts on each 9100 of
taxable proiM-rty. Any school district
mav also levy an additional tax of
:i0 i-putonn enrli-SlUO of taxable pro
perty. Atfv sehool district may also
levy' an additional tax of TO oi-nts on
ciu'h $100 for ercctinsr or vepainiiff
si-hiM)l houses.

"Every Tath
Hath a Puddle."
The puddle in the path
way of most lives is a de
fective circulation due to a
blood supply that instead of
growing clear and strong like
a mountain brook, is stagnant
and impure. Puddles may be
purified, however, and be
come limpid streams. That
is what Hood's Savsaparilla
does ivith human blood. It
clarifies, purifies and strengthens the
blood, and when this is accomplished the
vital organs, liver, lungs, kidntys, bowels,
are all braced and invigorated.
Asthma "Four bottles of Hood's
Sarsapkrilla gave me permanent relief
from asthma, and I have fv.d no trouble
from shortness of breath since." Edith
I G. Lane, Vienna, Ca.
Pimples "I used to be troubled ruith
malaria and pimples; a friend advised me
to take Hood's Sarsaparilla. I have been
fret ever since. " W. Stewart, 60S My tie
Ave., Brooklyn, N. Y.
Worn Out Feeling "I decided to
lake Hood's Sarsaparilla for a worn out
feeling, and a few bottles relieved me en
tirely and two 1 am able to '-jxrk a great
deal." XHty Allen, Madison, Kan.
