Conference Personals. Rev. E. P. Taylor, one of the iew Presiding Elders appointed ast night, is an example of what a nan may accomplish in this coun ry and in this age. With the reatest difficulty he secured the raining from the preparatory de artment of Wofford, working his Aay through. By the use of the trictest economy-his expenditures or board for one month were only I.75-he worked his way through ;his department. He entered Wof ord College in 1882 "with a wife mnd only ten dollars in his purse". ie and his wife were boarded by a )rother-in-law during the first year. ['he next year he taught school and nade enough to pay his back in lebtedness for board a.nd to carry irn in co'lege for another year. [he same course was pursued brough his sophomore and junior rears. He entered the senior class, n his own words, "penniless but with a strong deter,nination." He nade his way by chopping wood, :arning by this means some times is much as six dollars per week, md. having a mechanical turn, by naking picket fences and such )ther things as he could sell. He ays that he "bad the good fortune :o make fifty cents one evening by :king the place of a washer woman and doing some washing ~or a good lady." He was given the janitorship of the college, and for this work re eived $7.oo per month. In De :ember of his senior year he was nade,pastor of Bethel church, the :ity mission. His w<ork was ex. tremely heavy, but he successfully passed his examination and received is diploma, his little daughter Car rying him a handsome bouquet on is graduation day. He is a faithful and thoughtful preachei-, and his ministry has been :rowned with a well deserved suc eess. '[hanks to Opera House Management.
