The Methodists of Ann Arbor and the Ann Arbor district may well congratulate themselves upon the results of the annual conference, which was held at Flint, and the honors so far bestowed upon representatives from this district. Friday was the date set for the election of delegates- both ministerial and lay- to the general conference to be held at Los Angeles, Cal., next year, and three of the delegates and one alternate chosen were from this district, two of the delegates and the alternate being residents of Ann Arbor.

   As outlined in the Argos some time ago, Rev. E. S. Ninde was selected as a member of the ministerial delegation and Prof. D. W. Springer of the lay delegatlon, whlle Dr. R. S. Copeland was select as an alternate for the laymen. Rev. C. T. Allen, of Ypsilanti, was also chosen a member of the ministerial delegation.

   Following is the list of chosen delegates from the Detroit conference to the general conference of the M. E. church to be held in Los Angeles next may: Ministerial Delegates. - Dr. Joseph F. Berry, Chicago; Dr. George Elliott, Detroit; Dr. E. S. Ninde, Ann Arbor; Rev. C. M. Thompson, Marquette; Dr. John Sweet. Detroit; Rev. C. T. Allen, Ypsilanti; Rev. J. E. Jacklin, Detroit; Dr. W. F.

  Prof. D. W. Springer was secretary of the convention of laymen.

   Quite a contest is going on over the appointment of presiding elder for the Detroit district and at the laymen's caucus yesterday, Rev. E. S. Ninde is unanlmously endorsed for the position, but he called upon the representatives of the district and positively declined to be considered in the matter.
