Special to Journal. "
Wilson; Nov. 29.-,In the M. E.
Church, South,at 9:30 o'leock this morn
ing, the. North Carolina Annual Con;
fereiice was called to order in its sixty-
ninth session, with Bishop A. W. Wil
son in the chair. ' .
In keeping witWa resolution passed
at the last session of the conference,
the sacrament of the Lord's Supper
was administered before the business
session began. In this service Bishop
Wilson was assisted by Revs. E. A.
Yiftes, W. S. Rone, R. A. Willis. and J.J
H. Moore..
The business of the conference began
with the calling of the conference roll,
which shewed a large attendance of
members of the conference.
' Rev. W. L. Cuninggimwasre-elapted
secretary of the conference. He has
served the conference in this capacity
for the past thirteen years.
The standing committees were nomi
nated the presiding elders, and were
confirmed by the conference. v
The ?0th question was called and the
characters of the nine presiding elders
were passed and they made very en
couraging Kpsrts of their districts.
The characters of the supernumerary
and superannuated preachers were
passed. When the name of T. J. Gat
tis was called, his presiding elder, J.
H. Moore made the following statement
with regard 'to Mr. Gattis' case, after
which his character was passed: "The
character of Brother Gattis has been
virtually held up since the institution
of his suit in the civil courts against
Dr. J. C. Kilgo and other members of
the M. E. Church, South. We desire
to express our condemnation of his
course in going to the law with his
brethren before he had mide any ef
fort to settle the the matter complained
of in the church; but in consideration
of his long service to- the church as a
minister, his feeble health and the near
approach of that tribunal before which
we all must stand at last in judgment,
I move that his character pass.. "
The characters of the undergraduates
and the pastors on the Raleigh and
Durham districts were passed and they
submitted their report.
Rev. T. H. Law, D. D., addressed
the conference in the interest of the
American Bible Society.
Conference adjourned at 1 o'clock

Black Patti Next Week.
America's greatest aggregation of

phenomenal success of their perform
ance elsewhere, makes the appearance
of this remarkable company of singers,
dancers and comedians in thi city an
event of immense public interest
Black Patti's lyric triumph in all the
leading music cities of Europe and
America are without parallel. She it
one of the most (popular "prima donnas
in the world, and has probably sung
before the largest and moat distin
guished audiences that ever assembled
to applaud a cantatrice.
She ha been the recipient of dis
tinguished honors paid to her by royal
ty of Europe and nearly every repre
sentative musical organization in the
United State has acknowledged her
wonderful vocal gift by th presenta
tion of costly modal, diplomas and
decoration. In. addition to her beau
tiful vole and exqulalU art, ntur
hi endowed ber with a bright intellect
and queenly form, and if it was not
