Before Deoomlne 3Ietho
dlst Minister. .
Rev, Titus Lowe of Cedar trails, fa.,
who may be assigned by Bishop Frank M.
Bristol to. take the enstorale of the First
Methodist Episcopal church of this city,
was given a dinner at University club
last night by several; members of the
church and later an Informal recept!6n
was held Jn his honor. Dr. Lowe was
returning: home from Lincoln, where he
delivered an address before the Nebraska
Methodist conference on "The Emancipa
tion of Woman In the Orient"
Quito a while before Dr. Lowe became
a Me'thodlst preacher he was a newspaper
tnan and a stump political speaker, Th
doctor is not enthusiastic about his for
mer political opinions, ' and probably has
changed them In these days of UghtnlnB
transformations, but he declares being; a
newspaper man was some experience.
"I started by working on the college
paper," said Dr. Lowe, "and laur worked
on the old Plttsbursh Dispatch. Oh, yes,
I've had my shore of politics. I cam
paicned one fall and got some good prac
tice filling in for. the principal speakers,
who didn't want to tcik alt the time or
were late or something."
Dr. Lowe said he didn't report his own
speeches during this campaign, contenting
himself mere) with the- practice he re
ceived, which, he says, helped fit him for
the pulpit.
Vr. Lowe spent four years in India, In
charge of the English-speaking church
of Calcutta.
The Iowa minister was much pleased
YvitU Omaha and the members of the coa-
grgatlon enjoyed 'the evening with hlrrt,
for ho la a genial fellow, and proved him
self an entertaining conversationalist He
said he would be dollghted to come to
Omaha, which he believes from the casual
Inspection he made of It Is. not "a tough
town."

adopted will allow the various stale Juris,
dictions to deprive their past grand mas
ters from that privilege.
