Bitten by a Young Pup. Four children, while playing with a three-raoutbs-old pup last Sunday, were bitten by it, though no bad etTeots from the bite have so far made their appear ance. The children belong one each to the families of G. R. Garter, B. G. Jacobs, Mrs. Waters and D. H. Rowland. It had been noticed that the dog snapped viciously at pieces of meat or other food given it, but nothing was thought ol' it. The ohiidren were playfully poking their Angers at it and enjoying its futile efforts to snap them, wben it suddenly sprang at Mr. Jacobs's little girl, biting her fingers and bringing tho blood from thom. The dogers and bands of all four ohildron wore slightly bitten, showing teeth prints. The pup was taken to Dr. J. W. Boll's store for examination, and it diod shortly afterward, frothing at tho mouth. Its head was then severed fror its body and sent to Atlanta for exami nation. The extreme youth of the dog makos it a particularly strange ease should it be found that it had devolopod the rabies or hydrophobia. Son bust Mother.

Duncan Challenged. Thom were sensational developments Saturday in the North Georgia Confer ence, which is in session at New-nan, Ga., over whiob Bishop W. W. Duncan is pre siding. The sensation was sprung shortly after conference oponed, when Rev. W. W. Wadsworth, who is under charges, threatened to nie a complaint for maladministration against Bishop Duncan because of a certain ruling. Bishop Duncan replied that the minister was at liberty to nie the charges. The following from tho Atlanta News tells of tho incident between the two men: The second day of tho Methodist con ference at Nownau opened with a sensa tional episode, when the secretary, Dr. J. W. Heidt, read tho minutes of Wed uosday'8 session. Dr. W. W. Wadsworth, in whose case a committee of investigation was ap ?ointed, said tho minutes woro incorroot. 'hoy should state, ho said, that a pre vious mooting had fully oxoneratod bim. Tho conference assented to the correction. Dr. Wadsworth thon said : "I bavo two questions of law for tho chair to de cido. Did not Presiding Kider .1. W. Quil lian orr in not answering 'nothing' against mo when my name was called ? and should tho presiding eldor have re puted tho action of the previous cum in ec of investigation, as tho latter had already boon settled ?" Bishop Duncan said: "I do not yot decido finally, but my present opinion is that these questions aro not questions of law, hut of administration, which is in tho hands of tho conference" To this Dr. Wadsworth rejoined: "Bishop, if you so rulo I shall file a com plaint for maladministration ngainst you before tho committee on episcopacy at tho next general conference." Bishop Duncan answered: "That is for you to docido. What you will do does not concorn mo." In Memoriam. Our dear friend, Noomio Cantrell, ago 28 years, diod Ootohor 10, 1005.
