Church closed her Sunday at Cleaves Temple, Twenty fifth and Decatur, after having been in session one week. This was the first conference of the C. M. E. to be held in the State of Nebraska. The sessions were presided over by Bishop Nelson Caldwell Cleaves, D. D., L. L. D. , presiding bishop of the Fifth Epis copal District* Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, St. Louis.

Walk er; Omaha, J. S. Blaine; Parkville, C. H. Anderson; Kansas City, Kans., T. A. Bowers; Baldwin, reported by pre siding elder. The majority of the reports were good. Reports by Drs. Storey, Walk er, Moppins, Bowers, Hollis, Blaine and Edmond, being especially flattering. All ministers were found blameless in their lives and official administra tion. Their characters were passed. General Conference Delegates Great interest was centered about the election of the delegates to the forthcoming General Conference that is to convene with Jamison Temple, Kansas City, Mo., and St. Peter’s Chapel, Kansas City, Kans., in May, 1926. A goodly number of aspirants were in the race. Drs. Bowers, Walk er, Graves and L. A. Storey were elected delegates. Reverend Messrs. W. J. Turner, W. M. McCray and C. E. Chapman were elected first, second and third alternates, respectively. Visitors Prominent among visitors were: Bishop J. Arthur Hamlett, A. M., D. D., S. T. B., presiding bishop of the Eighth Episcopal District, Jackson, Tenn.; Drs. Geo. C. Parker, editor of the Christian Index, Jackson, Tenn., and T. H. Copeland, secretary of the Superannuated Preachers, Widows and Orphans Department. There were also nearly all of the ministers of the local churches of Omaha in attend ance upon sessions of the conference, received introductions and addressed the conference. Bishop Cleaves ex pressed great joy at having Bishop Hamlett present during the session, especially since it was only four years ago that Bishop Hamlett was elected to the Episcopacy, having been a member of this conference at the time of his election. Sermons and Addresses Preaching was done by Drs. N. T. Walker, T. H. Copeland, Bishop J. Arthur Hamlett; Drs. G. C. Parker, T. H. Copeland, W. M. McGray, Bish op N C. Cleaves, Drs. E. L. Hollis and T. J. Moppins. Each sermon was very impressive, those by Bishops Hamlett and Cleaves, Drs. Walker, Copeland, Parker and Moppins being jboth profound and spiritual. Wichita and Jamieson Temple, Kan sas City, Mo., were the missionary objectives for concentration and de velopment during the year of 1926. Denver, Colo., was selected as the seat of the conference for 1926. At the closing session Sunday evening the following appointments were read by Bishop N. C. Cleaves: Topeka District—J. L.
