The interna tional convention of the Epworth league opens here day after tomorrow. Visitors are already beginning to put in an appearance and Indications point to n large attendance. Many of the early arrivals have scattered to near by resorts to spend a day or two be fore the conventions begins. What the Christian Endeavor is to the other evangelical denominations , such Is the Epworth league to the great world of the direct followers of John Wesley and his teachings. Strong efforts have been made at dif ferent times to Induce the Methodists to come within the fold of the Chris tian Endeavor , but the governing spir its of the denomination , reinforced in a large measure by the rank and file , have preferred to maintain and de velop their own organization for young people. To this end they have labored with unabated zeal and energy , with the result that , In numerical strength and in spiritual influence , the Epworth League of Methodists is now second only to the church proper itself. Notwithstanding the fact that the present convention Is held BO far wast , remote from the great centers of the denomination In the eastern states and In Canada , the arrivals to date and the advices concerning the organ ized delegations and Individual visit ors who are en route indicate that the convention will be one of the largest ever held under the league auspices.
