The new bishop of the East district, the Rev. Dr. William M. Bell, LL. D., for twelve years bishop of the Pacific Coast district, will preside, instead of Hishop William M. Weekley, D. D., who retired at the meeting of the general conference last May and was elected bishop emeritus. A new sec retary of the conference will also be elected to (111 the place of the Rev. P. M. Oyer, who died since the last tession. The most interest is mani fested in the selection of tho new superintendent of the conference to succeed the Rev. Dr. William H. W'ashinger, who was elected bishop and assigned to the Pacific Coast dis trict by the last general conference i:nd who filled the office of superin tendent for fifteen years, being direc tor of the whole conference for a period of thirteen years.

Grimm, of Shippensburg, has been advocated by his friends for the place, as have also the Rev. E. H. Hummelbaugh. of Frederick, Md.,! and the Rev. Dr. G. W. Sherrick, of] Dallastown. Through Dr. Washing-1 cr's splendid leadership and farsight-, ed legislation the conference Ivis reached a high standard of efficiency, i unexcelled by the other divisions of thie denomination, and the very best man of the conference must be se lected to continue the same advanc-] ed standard of the church. The reports coming In from th| various charges to the superintend- j Ing committee show an excellent year's work, and a good increase in membership and finances will be an encouraging feature of the annual gathering. The Rev. C. C. Miller and his congregation at Waynesboro will entertain the conference. Snakes, Lizards and Sand at Camp Hancock, Ga.
