M. E. Zion connection, arrived in th city yesterday' afternoon from New York city, and was given a reception at th Iilackford-streat church, corner north and wacklord-streets. The church was decorated and especially the Jeo-ture-room, to which, after a welcome address by the Itev. Smith ClaiboUrn, re sponse by th Bishop and a short address by Kev.

James A.

Messrs. dial-bourn, Davis and Smith, with their wives, tered. The Bishop then delivered his address, after which refreshments were served.

Bishop Waiters has been an active race man, and has interested himself in politics, though he has never held, ouice. lie is the youngest divine ever appointed to the bishopric in this connection. He was born in Bardtown, ir livvH, attended tne common schools at that place and was selected to attend-a college and-be educated for the ministry. In lt7d he came to this citv and joined the Blackfora-street church when tho congregation wor shiped in a small Irani building opposite the present charch. Lie was licensed to preach in this church tilteen years ago.

Much capital has been mad of the Presi dent's seemingly indifferent reply to the dele gation ot colored men wnicn waited on him irom New York. and.

while I think be might have modified his statements, I think he is sincere'in his position on the fores bill and is anxious for its passage. I usod to think that a division of the colored vote between tncllcpub.iciin and Democratic parties was best, but the latter party has become so rank toward th negro that the idea has become immract lea I. 1 has giren the race qnestion considerable thought," continued the Bishoo, "and I have concluded that nothing but time, education and wealth will solve it.

Lonely Cnyrs on the Cr Bank Small-Pox Episodes In-cr I pt ion on the "Walla Tlie Krepr' Stories Othr AneodotM. Oat on the low north banks of Fall the right of the Indiana-avenue bridjg the pest-hoBse. Itta inclosed br a twelve- foot, aha rp-pointed, uncainted picket fence. The buildiDzs, like the fetce, are rusty and tottering. Except the rt ecat, when ther were.conapieted, the boiidini havJ reoeivel no paint.

Considering thi. aod the; fact that several feet of water runs through the budd ings whenever there is a big freshet ia Fall creek, i the buildings are well preserved. To this the notable exceptions mut be made thatUong, narro porticoes connecting all the build. ngs are sinking awav because there are no brick foundations under them, aod the floors of. the hospital rooms in places begin to show decay.

The ahingie' roofs are also taking wings, and- ia one place the sun beats down: through the roof into the dismal quarters. One whose knowledge of the place does not go back to 1534 acd to other seasons before that when the small-pox razed in tbil State, will wonder what the city wanted with four considerable buildings ia a pest-house. He wound also wonder- why patients! suffering from deadly diseases were sent to a locality which of itself certain death if the 'disease or the medicines failed to furnish a quietus. The buildings are each long and arrow, about 20x00 feet, one-story high. Ihese are the buildinca that th City Council has ordered It isu't oiten out of war t.rocs that the authoritiea deliberately, plan the destruction of property.

The health board baa in this case recommended the abandonment of the site as wholly unsuitable to the purposes to which it been dedicated, and the sale of the ground. The buildings could be repaired, but they oouid only be used in continuation of their present purposes. As the city is to abandon that site aud the buildings are not worth moving. and as it would be both dangerous to remove them or to permit them to pass into other bauds for domestic usesit baa been decided to destroy them lite. With them will pass away the scenes of several historic police incidents, aud of the sufferings aud gruesome experiences of unfortunates stricken dowa with, loathsome disease.

i The city's first pest-house was a' small frame structure, buiit'in the river bottoms, for the use of soldiers who were suffering rom small-pox This was at the openiug Of the war. i The second, and the present pest-housH, the one under discussion, was built iu 15o3. Dr. G. W.

Mears, president of the board of health, had supervision of it, und T. Morse was the contractor. At times -the' tyuildlngsV were crowded; then there Would be long intervals without patients', 'pest-house" used to be a name spoken with terror by the Muall boys of community. It wa-it to be seen of tea in the daily press and as much free ad- vertixiug as the undertakers ambulances and the present hospitals now get. AN ABANDONED AMBULANCE.

i ine last patient in tne pest house was discharged July 3, 1SS4. lie had small-pox and bis waa the last of a large number of case. The disease bad. broken out in the i jail and patients were transferred to the The- superintendent of hospital had charge of them: and phys cians were detailed to make vis its there while newly-Jedged doctors were given the inestimable privilege of locating on the ground and restricted onlv in Rie thing they could not leave the premises. ilortality iu that year among the patients was high.

There were fifteea or twenty deaths trom the disease, out the proportion of deaths to cases waa not so large as else where, which teems to indicate that de spite the surroundings and swampv atmos- unerethe treatment was eCeciiv in some cases. James Coleman, who has charge of the buildings aod grounds, has been there for fifteen years. "In ISSi he 6ays, "we had more patients than we could accommodate. Ihere were forty here at one time. Tbere were seventy-five here, altogether, during the winter of 1SS3-4.

Dr. Hentborne was one of the attending physicians. Joe Forbes and Captain i Williamson had influ ential positions on the police force daring part ol the tune thatl had the mot trouble on these grounds. Tramps and thieves used to make this their headquarters, andj when erst came out her I had po lice powers, and was frequently called upon to exercise them. One night the police killed a negre in the creek here in front of the place, and it was near here that -Bill Kennedy caught.

These have been police baitie-grennds. Be sides the trouble the police had with the thieves, we used to have prettr merrv times with some of the small-pox patients. captain uuamson was the 'Iraidest man I ever saw of small-pox. I went down to get a small-pox patient on the street one day. AS'illiamson, from away off, was guards I ing tuej premises.

A Chinese, peddling tea, approached tne red nag. "Hey there Don't yon se that small pox flag?" no i raia emau-pox; hare him in ldici ta time, jodd said as he went on into the infested bouse and sold his tea. When be came out, Williamson 'shooed'. him of! and. ran away down the street exclaiming, 'Go war from me', 1 Ou the wails, of the buildings to be destroved, some of the former inmates have kVilson.

Among others who have made their records are the names of Charles Lsne, James Chambers, Torn Lee, W.

A lot of old clothing and blankets were left at the pest-house after the last epidemic.

Ia the axabl of the grounds ia an old-time ambulance. "Once as we wet driving this ambulance to the cemetery," said Mr Coleman, "one of the wheels gave way and threw ns out.

There wis a small-pox corpse in th wagon at the tisce. We put a rail -under the axle and the horse dragged us-thos to the burial place." One can see that the. wheel which PEST HOUSE FB03I THE WEST PHOTOGRAPHED BT THE TEWg. i supplied the place of th 'ope that was broken was a thick; and heavy one in contrast to the feeble tires on the other three.
