don Purple has gone up in price five cents on the pound. I wonder if Harrison has put a duty on it like our friend in the Star said he did on coffee.

The Lapland correspondent thinks it made some very bad mistakes a while back but forgot to tell what they were. If he will name them I will try and correct them, as we are liable to make mistakes. Even the correspondent to the Star from this place has made some very bad ones himself.

The Lapland correspondent of the Star makes the statement that President Harrison litis imposed a duty of three cents a pound on coffee, .and in consequence coffee is now three cents a pound higher. My neighbor, Lambert Smith, said he thought the young man should revise his figures. If the correspondent had bought nnv coffee lately ho would have known that good brands are selling lower than one vear ago. If the duty is invariably added to the price I would liko that he should answer why it is that with a duty of two cents a pound on wire nails they can be bought at the store for two cents. Does the manufacturer simply make them for nothing and for glory

ren presided over tue Metlimlist conference Monnny. No time was lost, business lieitiij energetic: !'. taken up. The committee mi judiciary to whom was intrusted the interpretation of the words "lay delegates." after a •rcneral comment on the matter reported that they had decided that, no other interpretation than the present one can be made—namely, that "lav delegates" means male delegates aiuFnot female.

A resolution to adjourn on Thursday next was adopted. Iloneer Katun was elector treasurer of the SundaySchool Union society. A resolution denouncing capital punishment, and recommending that solitary eontinenu at be substituted, and asking ihe conference to demand that th --e l: v.*s expunged from thestatii'e nooks oi ihe various states was laid the table with a rush. l)r. Jennifer, fraternal delegate of the African Methodist Kniscopal church, was received and lie made a creditable address of fraternal greeting. Dr. Jennifer. in referring to southern outrages, said: "We have set apart -May 31 as a day of prayc to Cod Almighty that lie in His mercy may forgive this great crime of the south and bring the nation's attention to the horrible stale of affairs. We rely on prayer. We do not go to dynamite, but our knees for redress." A resolution was offered to set apart a s'unday in November to celebrate the centennial organization of the conference.

III*. I'otts. of Michigan, offered a resolution empowering the bishops to submit, to the annual conferences a proposition to admit women as lav delegates, but it was quickly referred without debate being allowed. However. the matter was reconsidered, and Dr. Moore, of Ohio, offered a substitute declaring that in all matters connected with the election of lay delegates the word "laymen" ought to be understood and must of right be understood to include all the members of the church who are not members or presidents of the annual conference. A motion to take up the question immediately after the report of the committee on judiciary was carried.

A Decision Overturning the Will of th« Late President Juuies K. Polk. NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 25.—ExPresident James K. Polk's will has been declared null and void by Chancellor Allison and the estate given tc the heirs at law. Polk left the home, consisting of several acres in the heart of Nashville on which his tomb is located, to his wife, and after her death to that relative who should be pronounced "worthiest relative bearing the name of Polk" and on that Polk's death to a successor similarly chosen by the governor of Tennessee. Mrs. Polls died last year, and the will was attacked as an attempt to entail the property, Mr. Tasker Polk, ol North Carolina, bringing the suit. The decision to-day overturned the will ami gives the heirs tit law the property. It is worth probably SliOO.OOO.
