XLIX.\nMarch, 1895.\nNo. 3.\n\n\nIn this number of THE MISSIONARY we present our readers with an\ninteresting variety of information, embracing sketches of personal\nobservation by secretaries of the Association, letters from field\nworkers, pictures of pioneers in two important fields, and pictures of\none of our higher institutions. It is with sorrow that we are compelled\nto notice the death of our late honored and beloved President, Dr.\nWilliam M. Taylor, and that of Professor Painter, so successful and so\nfaithful in his work among the Indians.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nFIELD NOTES.\n\nBY SECRETARY RYDER.\n\n\nMOUNTAIN WORK.--A very interesting spiritual awakening seems to prevail\nin many points of our mountain field. From a pastor of one of these\nchurches among our American Highlanders we have received the following:\n\"I have held meetings a couple of weeks, first at the church, and then\nat the academy. A large number have been reached. The open meetings\ndisclosed the new life to all. We held daily meetings of prayer in the\nevening, and a large percentage of the students attended. All took part.\nThe Y.P.S.C.E. has increased fourfold, and all the time is occupied in\ntheir meetings, and often two or three arise to speak at once. Six names\nwere presented for active membership, and two for associate. The work is\nnot confined to this single church and academy.\n\n\"I went recently to another village and half a dozen committed\nthemselves for Christ. The Association needs an evangelist to visit\nthese fields. Audiences fill the churches, most of them people who are\nout of Christ. All that prevents meeting this crying want of these\nmountain people in supplying to them more intelligent and consecrated\nministers of the Gospel is the lack of money consecrated and given to\nthis great service. This mountain field is now ripe to the harvest.\nWill not the churches multiply their gifts so that we can send into this\nharvest field more devoted men who are ready to go if they can do their\nwork and simply be supported?\"\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nThe hard times and the difficulty of the mountain people to get clothing\nis illustrated in the following, which comes to us in a recent\nmissionary letter from this mountain field:\n\n\"There would have been much more suffering had it not been for the\nclothing which has gone out from this school. When seven chickens bring\nonly thirty-five cents the poor mountain people do not have much\nchance.\"\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nA pastor of the Association among our American Highlanders writes as\nfollows: \"This has been a most blessed and glorious season of\nrefreshing. In the bounds of my work this fall and winter I have held\nand assisted in meetings which have in all resulted in something more\nthan 100 hopeful conversions. My work now is especially to care for and\nlook after the welfare of these precious souls lately brought to Christ\nand to give as much time as possible to my studies.\"\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nINDIAN WORK.--Our friends will remember the appeal made by Rev. James F.\nCross, of Rosebud Agency, S.D., at our annual meeting at Elgin, Ill.,\nfor a chapel to be built at Cedar Butte, S.D. President Gates, moved by\nthe appeal, took it up so enthusiastically that nearly $400 came from\nhim and other generous givers. The Indians drew the logs and have just\nerected the chapel under the direction of Superintendent Cross. A note\njust received from the field contains the following, which abundantly\nproves the wisdom of opening this new station at Cedar Butte and helping\nthe Indians in the erection of their church: \"Last week I was up to\nCedar Butte church. It was the first time since it was built that I have\nbeen there for service. I received two young men into the church. It was\na warm day and the thermometer has not been ten degrees away from zero,\nexcept to go thirteen below, since.\" This chapel at Cedar Butte is the\ncenter of a new work, and this message brings the hopefulness of the\nfield.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\n\"We received five grown persons to our church fellowship on Sunday, and\ntwo children were baptized. Three Christian Indian families were\nconstituted by Christian marriage at the same time. Praise God!\" So\nwrites Supt. C.L. Hall, of Fort Berthold Indian Mission, N.D.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nARE THEY GRATEFUL?\n\nREV. CHAS. F. SARGENT, THOMASVILLE, GA.\n\n\nVery often we are asked if the people among whom we labor are grateful\nfor the work that is done for and among them--whether there is\nself-denial on their part in helping themselves in church and school\nwork.\n\nIt is very important that we should have some expression on their part\nin regard to this. There are many incidents in which grateful\nacknowledgment is made. A few incidents will best answer the above\nquestion.\n\nA little more than a mile from here there lives in an almost\nuninhabitable cabin an old lady who is called \"Aunt Eliza.\" I saw her\nfirst one cold day last winter, when I called and found her in bed sick\nwith pneumonia. We ministered unto her as we best could, providing\nmedicine, food and clothing.\n\nFrom a missionary barrel garments were obtained which helped to make her\nbody comfortable. She depended on the kindness of a neighbor to gather\nsticks for her and draw water. At times there was only enough fire in\nthe fire-place to give a faint glimmer, not enough to make the room\ncheerful. Aunt Eliza is old and crippled, and it was only with much care\nand patient waiting that in the goodness of God she was restored to\nhealth. Some time passed after her recovery before I saw her. She came\nto our house on a hot summer day to bring an offering of gratitude for\nGod's mercy in giving her back health and strength. She brought to us in\na corner of her handkerchief fifty-five cents which she had saved from\nlittle gifts from children and grandchildren nearly as poor as herself.\nShe had at this time only meal enough in her house to make one \"pone\" of\nbread. Gratefully she urged upon us her self-denying gift of\nthanksgiving. Of course we accepted it, only to return it to her in the\nname of the Master, who is the Great Gift Giver. Later in the season our\nsister remembered us again. She had saved for us two chickens, but a\n\"_conjuror_\" came along and said he would tell her fortune for them. He\nsucceeded in \"_beating_\" her out of her offering for the Lord, and in\nreturn she received nothing. She came and told us all about it. This\ngood woman did not rest until she brought us one at a time the chickens\nthat she had promised. When the Association met with us a few days ago\nshe brought, as her part to help, a few eggs. There are other incidents\nin her life which are interesting, but we cannot tell them all now. She\ncertainly is grateful and gives the \"widow's mite\" in giving all that\nshe has. She has been to our church and been blessed in meeting God in\nthe sanctuary. The first Sunday that she came she bowed and courtesied\nto the people as she came in, much to their amusement.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nA PIONEER MISSIONARY IN AFRICA.\n\n\n[Illustration: REV. GEORGE THOMPSON.]\n\nRev. George Thompson was early enlisted as a missionary in the Mendi\nMission on the west coast of Africa. He had been a most ardent friend of\nthe slave, active in aiding their escape from the house of bondage, and\nas a consequence had spent five years in the Missouri State Prison. He\nwent to Africa in 1848 under the commission of the American Missionary\nAssociation, and proved himself to be remarkably useful. One of his most\nfar-reaching efforts was in the work as a peacemaker. A fierce and\nunrelenting war had been raging among the tribes around the mission, and\nthis was brought to a close through the wise and persistent efforts of\nMr. Thompson. He was chosen umpire for the contending chiefs, and after\nrepeated and wearying excursions, and ten interviews or councils with\nboth parties, he at length succeeded. Then came the joy which peace\nbrings. Warriors met and fell on each other's necks; chiefs, who were\nfor years enemies, now shook hands and embraced each other with the\naffection of long-separated friends; sisters, wives and daughters, long\ncaptives, fell into each other's arms, weeping for joy. A chief's\ndaughter was seen running to embrace her father's feet, a wife hastened\nto welcome her husband and children, and entire towns were filled with\ncries of gladness. The beatitude, \"Blessed are the peacemakers,\" belongs\nto Mr. Thompson.\n\nIll health at length compelled Mr. Thompson to relinquish the work in\nAfrica, and in 1856 he returned to Oberlin, Ohio, where he spent five\nyears in publishing his book on Africa, entitled, \"Palm Land,\" and in\neducating two boys whom he brought with him from Africa. In 1861 he\nremoved with his family to northwestern Michigan, where he labored as a\nhome missionary for eighteen years, being the pastor for fifteen years\nof a church which he established. He then returned to Oberlin, where he\nremained until his death in 1893. In all these years Mr. Thompson was a\nlaborious and useful man, actively engaged in awakening the churches to\nan interest in Africa, in writing his books and educating his children.\nIn his later years, while living in Oberlin, he was abundant in labors\nin connection with Sunday-schools and feeble churches in Ohio and other\nStates.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nA PIONEER MISSIONARY AMONG THE INDIANS.\n\n\nIn 1843 a number of young men from Oberlin entered upon a mission among\nthe Ojibway Indians in the northern part of what is now Minnesota, under\nthe auspices of the Western Evangelical Missionary Society, which was\nsoon afterward transferred to the American Missionary Association. Of\nthe inaccessibility of this field, a competent authority has said:\n\"There is probably no missionary field to-day on the face of the earth\nmore difficult to reach than this was at that time.\"\n\n[Illustration: REV. S.G. WRIGHT.]\n\nAmong this group of missionaries was Rev. S.G. Wright. As a part of his\nexperience it is said that after a short visit at home, Mr. Wright\nreturned to the mission taking his young wife with him--their wedding\ntour. It was a journey of over a month made in a canoe. They were both\ncompelled to walk at intervals twenty-two miles in the swamps along the\nside of the stream until they reached Mr. Barnard's station. These walks\nwere varied by sickness; Mr. Wright sometimes had chills every day, but\nat Mr. Barnard's station he recovered. There remained yet twenty miles\nof their journey, and this was undertaken on foot, but soon a storm\nbrought five inches of snow. Mr. Wright says: \"My wife was very lame,\nand what woman would not be after walking twenty long miles through mire\nand water, over high hills and through gullies, in snow from four to\nfive inches deep?\"\n\nThe change wrought by these missionaries can be indicated in a sentence:\nWhen they went there the Indians cultivated almost no land and their\nonly domestic animals were dogs. They maintained a precarious existence\nby hunting and fishing, and the gathering of wild rice, with starvation\nas no uncommon experience. In a few years these Indians raised their own\nsupplies of corn and potatoes, with some to sell to procure other\nnecessaries; they began to build houses for themselves; had the benefit\nof a saw mill and a grist mill, with the blessings of a church and\nboarding school.\n\nThe Association withdrew from the mission in 1859, but Mr. Wright\nreturned under other auspices, and spent several years in effective and\nuseful work. He still lives and is active in Christian labors as a\nmember of the church in Oberlin.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nA SOUTHERN JOURNEY.\n\nBY SECRETARY A.F. BEARD.\n\n\nIt included every Southern State in extent from Virginia to Texas, and\nfrom Texas to Florida. It was a study of schools, their methods and\nattainments; it was the acquaintance of new teachers and their work, the\ngreeting of those who have become old friends, the look into the eyes of\nmore colored youth in schools than usually falls to one person. It was a\ncomparative study of classes of all grades in schools of the same grade,\nand of schools in different States and environments. It was an\nexamination of industries in agriculture, industries in mechanics, of\nschools, normal and collegiate. It was an inspection of properties; an\ninquiry as to the prices of paints and brick and lime and wall papers.\n\nIt was a visit to churches, a handshake with pastors and deacons, a\ngathering of congregations to \"make their wants and wishes known\" to\n\"the Association.\" One soon learns that the correct use of the definite\narticle to designate the A.M.A. is not confined to those who have\nstudied grammar. There is only one Association for these people. They\nnever call it \"American\" nor even \"Missionary.\" \"The\" is all sufficient,\nand it does one good to hear his society thus alphabetically\nabbreviated, as it does to meet these warm-hearted brethren of the\ncolored churches which have been nourished with life by \"The\"\nAssociation. If anyone is suffering from iciness in the cardiac region,\nthere is no better place for him to get the cockles of his heart well\nwarmed up than in some of the colored congregations' churches which I\nvisited. I said some. Alas! there is a difference in churches--in the\nSouth.\n\nI find the schools full of interest, and that in the higher institutions\nthe girls and young women are side by side in nearly equal numbers with\nlads and young men in climbing up the steep hills of education. It is,\nindeed, climbing. It takes more time, more patience and more resolution\nthan most white students with happier conditions can realize.\n\nThe characteristics of the student are changing somewhat from the\nformer days. Pupils are pushing into the more advanced grades earlier\nin years. They have not the memories of slavery as had the generations\nbefore them--only the traditions of it, and certain of its\ninfluences--for influences do not die when institutions pass away. There\nis not, for example, much old-fashioned Puritanism stalking about in New\nYork in these days, but considerable of Puritan influence is alive and\nis just now contributing to the hopefulness of the times and the\ninterests of municipal reform and even of the State government.\nInfluences continue, and it will take time for those of slavery or the\neffect on both races to pass away.\n\nOne may not particularize among so many schools and churches as were in\nthe path of my visitation, and one must generalize if he will keep\nwithin limits. For ten years now it has been my privilege to study the\nSouth as a personal observer, not only in schools and churches and not\nonly on the regular routes of travel, but in the bypaths of rural life\nand in talks with all classes and conditions of men of every shade of\ncolor. I may, therefore, be permitted to generalize.\n\nFirst, it is often said that those who live among evils best understand\nthem and know how to meet them. This is a fallacy. The missionaries in\nChina knew better what was for the good of China than did the Emperor\nhimself. There are people in the United States, also, who could give\nsome good points to the new Emperor of Russia, and if he would take them\nand use them it would be for the advantage of that country. It is true\nthat impressions are not facts, and one cannot run over a fashionable\nroute of travel holding converse with some hospitable Southern host and\nreturn with much more than impressions. Such are likely to speak with\nmore confidence than knowledge, but, on the other hand, one who confines\nhimself to a single locality in the South and to the local facts is more\nlikely to have his views lean to inclination than to truth. One's\nopinion ought to be estimated by his information. I have known an\notherwise intelligent citizen of New Orleans to be ignorant of the\nexistence of Straight University with its 500 students and its noble\naccomplishment. A citizen of New York in this case could give the\ncitizen of New Orleans some information about the South.\n\nSecondly, the negroes are gaining. Never were the schools better in\ntheir entire range in different States, the studies more exacting, the\npurpose on the part of students for mastery in their work more resolute.\nNever was there manifested a more self-reliant spirit. The people are\nhaving a hard time just now; many are poorer than ever before, but the\nnegroes are gaining, inch by inch. There are millions in schools and\nunreached millions yet who could not read a word in the New Testament if\nthey had one; but the gain is seen in many ways; in schools, in\nchurches, in homes, and in the improved quality and character of the\nnewspapers edited by colored men, as also in their increased numbers.\nThe schools under the direction and superintendence of colored teachers\nare gaining in standing and worthiness.\n\nThirdly, the white South is gaining. Not very rapidly, but gaining. The\nlawless part of the South--and there is a lawless part--is as lawless as\never. The lower and more violent elements, however, are but a small part\nof the Southern people. Still they know that the general public opinion\nis not positive enough to condemn them in any question between the\nnegroes and the whites; hence they are not afraid to do what they will\nwith the negro. The great body of the Southern people are law-abiding,\nwith the single exception that they do not propose to respect the\nFifteenth Amendment. They are committed against this. They deprecate\nlawlessness. They are personally kind to the negroes. They are busy in\nthe ordinary duties of life, but the lawless know that these good people\nwill never disturb them in their injustices to the negro. Then, there is\na relatively small element of the people who are prophets of a better\nday. They themselves often feel the slavery of a public opinion which\nputs odium upon them when they are too friendly in behalf of the\noppressed colored man. They cannot oppose many things which they feel to\nbe wrong without losing their influence. These seers of the future are\nin hearty sympathy with our work and give it such personal encouragement\nas they may under the tyrannical conditions of a public opinion not\nfriendly to equal rights on the part of the negro.\n\nThere is a great gain, also, in Southern public opinion as to the\ncapacity of the colored man and his possible future. This gain is seen\nin the better provisions for the colored public schools, in towns and\ncities. The schools of the A.M.A. are both object lessons and incentives\nfor the education of the white as well as the colored in the public\nschools. The South is exceedingly sensitive as to the opinion of the\nNorth. A trifle of published criticism, for example, goes through the\nSouthern papers with rebuttals enough to break down a national\nconstitution. An imperfect and incorrect report of an interview, which\nlived just long enough to be printed, has been lately passionately\nconfuted in certain Southern newspapers with a profusion of epithets\nwhich were out of all proportion to the harmless nonsense committed to\nthe press by an untrained reporter--a new illustration of the extreme\nsensitiveness of the South to Northern opinion. Northern sentiment is\noften ridiculed, and frequently sends not a few Southern newspapers into\nspasms, but it is heeded. Let it be kindly and true, and pressed\nfraternally and constantly \"In His Name\" who came\n\n  \"To take away transgressions\n  And set the captive free.\"\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nTHE VALUE OF PURE AND INTELLIGENT CHURCHES.\n\n\nThe extract given below has the true ring. It is from one of the pastors\nof the American Missionary Association educated at Tougaloo and Howard\nTheological Seminary. If sometimes our church work seems small and\ndiscouraging there are many things to be remembered. Many times we are\ntold by the pastors of our churches \"we could have larger churches and\nmore of them if we would accept the standards of those about us.\"\nMoreover, some little church with fifty members may be doing more for\nthe cause of Christ than some big church of ten times the number. But,\nread the extract:\n\n\"In the battle of Milliken's Bend, a color bearer was seen far in\nadvance of his company. The captain shouted to him, 'Bring those colors\nback to the army!' The reply was sent back, 'Bring the army up to the\ncolors.'\n\n\"Just so, in the Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee,\nand the South generally, our church is lifting up the standard, and\nalthough men are constantly trying to get the standard bearer to fall\nback to the army of biased, narrow humanity, the church ever shouts back\nthe reply of the immortal color bearer, 'Bring the army up to the\ncolors.'\n\n\"Every man and woman going out from our schools is imbued with the\nthought that he or she is to hold up the standard of God--not man--for\nthe people. Every church, school or mission fostered by the A.M.A. is\nholding up the highest ideals of all life. And while our work does not\ngrow in numbers as rapidly as we could wish, we are broadcasting the\ngood seeds of the Kingdom over all the land, and here and there they are\nspringing into life, bringing forth fruit--some thirty, some sixty, and\nsome an hundred fold; so we go on grinding out the grist ever and anon\nholding one for toll. I am not ignorant of what other churches are\ndoing, and some are doing nobly, but ours is the great work. It has been\nmy observation, that wherever an enterprising work is being carried on\nin church or school, the leading force is generally the product of\nCongregational effort, directly or indirectly. So take away our work,\nthen it would be like blotting out the sun, moon and most of the stars\nfrom the sky.\"\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nA COLORED MAN WINS.--Charles W. Wood, of Chicago, a colored contestant\nfor oratorical honors, has won the first prize in Beloit College, Wis. A\nfew years ago he was a newsboy upon the street, but he made up his mind\nto have an education. With the aid of a generous patron he has nearly\ncompleted his college course and justified the high hopes of his many\nfriends.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nTILLOTSON, AUSTIN, TEXAS.\n\nBY SECRETARY A.F. BEARD.\n\n\nIn the year 1875 the Rev. George J. Tillotson, of Connecticut, visited\nvarious points of the South with a view to the establishment of a\nschool. He was accompanied by a secretary of the Association. After a\ncareful survey they selected Austin, Texas, as the most promising point.\nAbout twenty-five acres of partially wooded land just beyond the eastern\nboundary of the city of Austin were purchased for $5,000, the gift of\nMr. Tillotson. In the following year a charter was obtained and the work\nof raising money for the building was entered upon. The funds were\nfinally secured, and in 1879 the foundations were laid, and the\nbuilding, 104 feet in length and 42 in depth, constructed of white\npressed brick with dress stone trimmings, rose to its five stories in\nheight. On the 17th of January, 1881, the school opened. Two of the five\nfloors were then open spaces. Eleven pupils only were enrolled at the\nbeginning, but the term closed in June with 107. During this year the\nbuilding was completed and named \"Allen Hall,\" in honor of one of the\nlargest givers. At the opening of the fall term the beginning of the\nnext year, the accommodations were taxed to the utmost. In August, 1882,\nthe report reads, \"Allen Hall is full to repletion, 100 in the boarding\ndepartment. Work cannot unfold for need of more room. Young men and\nyoung women in the same building make an urgent appeal for a new\nbuilding.\"\n\nAt no time since the beginning of the second year have there been\nadequate accommodations for all desiring to attend.\n\nFor ten years the institution under the name of \"Tillotson Collegiate\nand Normal Institute\" has furnished to students from all parts of the\ngreat State of Texas with its half million of colored people, and from\nother States, and from Mexico, not only an opportunity to acquire a\nthoroughly practical common-school education, but also a more extended\ncourse to prepare students for entrance to the highest educational\ninstitutions in the land; and a normal training course for teachers for\nall positions in the public schools. Within this period of time a church\nhas been formed for the students of the institution and others, which\nhas been regularly ministered to by the president of the institution.\n\nIn the year 1888 a building for carpentry and manual instruction was\nerected and a teacher was appointed for industrial training.\n\nThe picture following is that of Allen Hall as it looks down upon the\nvalley of the river Colorado. In every direction the views are of great\nextent, and include many picturesque scenes. The State capitol--a mile\ndistant--and the various public buildings of Austin, are before the eye.\nSince electricity has been introduced, Austin by night presents a\nbrilliant outlook from the grounds of the institution, but the light\nwhich shines from these buildings on the hill sends its beams farther\nthan those of the electric plant, and pierces a denser darkness than\nthat of night.\n\n[Illustration: ALLEN HALL.]\n\nThe industrial buildings--viz., the shop for carpentry, another for\nblacksmithing, for repairing of vehicles, and for painting--are at a\nsuitable distance in the rear on the \"boys' side\" of the grounds. Below\nthem are located the barn, wagon house, hennery, etc.\n\nOn the crest of a second eminence, several hundred feet from \"Allen\nHall,\" is the attractive new building (see picture, page 100) used as a\ndormitory for teachers and young women pupils. In this building are the\nculinary department also, and the dining room for each hall. There are\nforty dormitory rooms in this hall which will accommodate sixty pupils\nand their teachers. In addition to its dining-hall for all the pupils\nwithin the institution there are reading and sewing rooms, etc., which\nadd to its completeness. There are not many school buildings anywhere\nwith more diversified landscape and beautiful natural surroundings than\nthose of Tillotson. Encompassed by oak trees large enough for shade and\nshelter, but not over-towering the prospect, free from the distracting\nnoises and dust of the streets, and yet possessing all the advantages of\na thrifty and beautiful city, the student at Tillotson will have at\nleast one period in life that may not be commiserated.\n\nThis new building has not yet been duly named, and if anyone of those\nwho may read this sketch will give $1,000 to be used as an endowment\nfund, the interest to be applied year by year as long as the school\nstands, we shall be glad to name this new hall after the giver, unless\nthe name should happen to be too un-euphonious. Would not this beautiful\nhall be a fine monument to bear the name of some considerate and\ngenerous giver?\n\n[Illustration: NEW HALL: DORMITORY FOR TEACHERS AND PUPILS.]\n\nTillotson was chartered under the corporate name of \"Institute.\" This\ncharter has now expired, and since the institution has blossomed out\nwith the possibilities of a college it is hoped that under the new\ncharter it may bear the name of \"College.\"\n\nIt has the following departments: Common English, Normal, College\nPreparatory, College, Vocal and Instrumental Music, and Industrial, and\na department for trained nurses. The faculty of the institution has\nconsisted of the president, the normal principal, the industrial\nteacher, and ten other teachers. The boarding department is conducted\nupon the model of a Christian household. The intention is by no means\nsimply to furnish rooms and meals for those who are in attendance, but\nalso to inculcate ideas of right living and thinking, which are\nindispensable to true manhood and womanhood.\n\nIn the Common English department the purpose is to prepare the pupils\nthoroughly for the practical duties of life.\n\nThe College Preparatory gives a careful preparation in the way of\nlanguage studies which will fit them to enter into the more generous\ncourse of study in which they may be fitted to be intelligent preachers\nand leaders of their race. The demand for college-educated men among the\nnegroes is an intelligent one. This race cannot be elevated unless there\ncan be raised a sufficient number of strong, earnest men, thoroughly\ntrained intellectually, as well as morally; men who shall have a larger\nthan a local vision, and who shall stand forth as representative leaders\nand teachers of those less fortunate than themselves.\n\nThe Normal department adds the study of subjects and methods, for those\nwho are preparing to become teachers among their own people.\n\nThe Industrial includes not only manual instruction, but carpentry,\nblacksmithing and mechanical drawing for boys and young men, and also\nsewing and dressmaking for girls and young women.\n\n[Illustration: MANUAL INSTRUCTION SHOP.]\n\nFor a young institution the record of Tillotson is excellent. There are\nfew places in the great empire of Texas where it has not already become\nknown through its pupils, or through teachers who have received their\neducation within its walls.\n\nBeing under the care of a distinctively Christian organization it\ncarries out the intention of its founders in providing religious\ninstruction for all who attend. Its Sunday School, its Christian\nEndeavor Societies, its social worship, its church service, its mission\nwork, all intensify the religious influence and religious life.\n\nTillotson is far away and needs friends who will give it help. It needs\nscholarships and professorships. It needs a library, chemical and\nphilosophical apparatus, and a printing press. It needs gifts of\nbedding, tableware for the halls, and clothing for needy students.\nFriends, it needs your Christian sympathy and Christian prayers, that\nthe great and blessed Teacher may dwell within its walls and in the\nhearts of the inmates.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nDEATH OF DR. TAYLOR.\n\n\nNine years ago we were called upon to record the death of Governor\nWashburn, President of this Association. While he was seemingly in the\nfullness of life and while on the platform at the meeting of the\nAmerican Board he suddenly and unexpectedly fell asleep in death. In a\nfar different way did his successor, Rev. William M. Taylor, D.D., meet\nin quietude and with patient resignation the summons that called him\nhome. The premonition of death came three years ago, and the march has\nbeen steady to the close. During these months his patience and sweet\nassurance have been as marked illustrations of the power of the Gospel\nas other graces were in his more active career.\n\nDr. Taylor, long before he became President of this Association, took a\ndeep interest in its work and brought to it his own personal influence\nand that of his large and wealthy congregation. As a presiding officer\nhe was constant in his attendance, and by the dignity of his manner and\nhis great force of character gave guidance and strength to the\ngatherings of our annual meeting. But Dr. Taylor was broad, and his\nsympathies went forth to every form of endeavor for the spread of the\nGospel and the benefit of mankind. With a strong character derived from\nhis Scottish ancestry, he had made his mark as a pastor in the growth of\na church under his care in the old country. Nearly a quarter of a\ncentury ago he came to this city, and by his commanding eloquence, his\npastoral gifts and the books which flowed from his pen, he has exerted a\nwide and salutary influence. On great occasions, at college\nanniversaries and at missionary and ecclesiastical gatherings, Dr.\nTaylor was one of the most acceptable and efficient speakers. One marked\ncharacteristic of Dr. Taylor came from his great heart, and mellowed and\nsweetened all his other powers. He has finished a glorious course, and\nhas gone to his reward.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nREV. CHAS. C. PAINTER.\n\n\nThe recent death of Prof. Painter has removed a most useful and\nefficient worker in behalf of the Indians. He died at his home in\nWashington, of heart disease, after an illness of only twelve hours. He\nwas sixty-two years old, born in Virginia, but resident for most of his\nlife in New England, where he was an acceptable pastor. He was called\nfrom that position into the service of the American Missionary\nAssociation, acting for a time as Professor in Fisk University. He,\nhowever, soon gave his life to promoting the education and civilization\nof the Indians, and for ten years was connected with the Indian Rights\nAssociation. It was a tribute to his knowledge and service in the Indian\nwork that about a year ago he was appointed a member of the Board of\nIndian Commissioners.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nONE MISSIONARY DAY.\n\nMISS S.E. OBER, EVARTS, KY.\n\n\nAt work again. Back from the rest and change of the summer vacation.\nLeaving behind friends and home, comforts and pleasures, and nearly all\nthe advantages of civilization. But coming to a greater joy, a higher\nprivilege than any of these can afford--the \"high calling\" of our\nMaster, to minister to poor, needy souls in His name.\n\nSo with great happiness we gather up the loose threads and the dropped\nstitches of last year's work, and start anew. Come with us through one\nday, and taste a few of a missionary's joys. After our household tasks\nare over, and we have gained new power from our daily devotions, we\nstart out on our work. Over one hundred boys and girls give us bright\ngreetings as we ride past. We must go on horseback, as there are no\n_good_ roads in our vicinity.\n\nWe are entirely compassed about with mountains; on every side they lift\ntheir grand heads in everlasting testimony of the wonderful handiwork of\nthe Almighty. But we have little time to gaze upon their beauty, for\nmore precious creations of the same great Hand are needing our\nattention.\n\nSee this little hovel, built of rough logs, scarcely serving to keep out\nthe wind or the rain. Let us enter. A most pitiful sight awaits us. The\nfever has been before us. For months it has raged, and two human souls\nhave been taken from the family which dwells here. On a rude filthy bed\nlies the wasted frame of a once stalwart man. He is as feeble as the\ninfant; a wan child is sitting near by. The mother, in tattered\ngarments, totters about her work, so enfeebled by the disease that her\nstrength is inadequate for her tasks. Three of the children are nothing\nbut skeletons, and sit listlessly on the floor, taking but little\nnotice of anything going on about them.\n\nThe thin faces light up at sight of us, and a cordial welcome is\nextended. The only whole chair is brought forward for our use. You might\nexpect a torrent of complaints from these poor creatures. But no,\ninstead come words of praise to God that He had spared so many of their\nlives, that He had been _with_ them in their sufferings.\n\nA year ago, when we visited this hut, we found them stolid and\nindifferent, caring nothing for spiritual things. The woman sat smoking\nover the fire, scarcely vouchsafing us a word, and muttered to a crony,\n\"Wot's thet thar woman nosing 'bout yere for? She'd er heap sight better\nlet we uns erlone.\"\n\nIt was very hard to ask permission to hold prayers with them in such a\nhostile atmosphere, but it is our duty to \"sow beside _all_ waters,\" so\nwe proffered our request.\n\n\"Yer kin ef yer mines ter. I haint er carin',\" was the ungracious reply.\n\nBut what a change _now_. The woman's face glows with a light that only\ncomes from the \"light of the world.\" \"God's been mighty good ter we\nuns,\" she says. \"Ef hit hedn't ben fer Him we'd er died. An' we uns air\nbound ter do ez near right ez we kin, an' serve ther Lord, ther hull lot\non us.\"\n\nDoes it not make our own hearts glow to hear such words, and see the\nwonders God hath wrought? And with thanksgiving we read and pray with\nthem, and strengthen their faith with God's Word. After noting their\nneeds, and promising to supply them from the articles sent us by\ngenerous Northern friends, we go on to the next house.\n\nWe find the same sad state of affairs; fever-worn men and women, wasted\nchildren, and starvation and want staring them in the face. But we find\nalso the same great change. God's Spirit has been working among them,\nand hearts are softened and lives changed by His power. So we go from\nhut to hut, until the way becomes too steep to ride, and we leave our\nhorses and climb, on foot, the lofty, rocky ridges.\n\nWe find men who were reckless and bad ready to listen to God's Word, and\nin broken voices asking for prayers. We find women who have lived lives\nof open shame penitent and contrite, showing by their abandonment of\ntheir evil ways that they are sincere when they say, oh so earnestly,\n\"We uns air tryin' ter do right.\"\n\nBut all is not so encouraging. We must visit homes where vice reigns\nsupreme; where women are lost to shame, and glory in their sin; where\neven the children have the \"trail of the serpent\" upon their young\nfaces; where the men are brutal and beastly, and even sickness does not\n_touch_ them.\n\nLet us call at this old log house as we pass; nestled under a high\ncliff, with the creek flowing past, it looks like some ugly blot on the\n\"face of nature.\" But it is a _school-house_. There is no window, no\nchimney, only a hole in the side of the house, opening into a sort of\npen of rocks, in which the fire is built; an admirable arrangement to\nsend all the heat out of doors, and the smoke into the house. Several\nrough benches (that do not invite to ease or comfort) and an ancient\nchair complete the furniture of the room. Several boards painted black\nform the \"blackboards.\" Here we find two tattered urchins and three tiny\ngirls, whose faces have evidently not made the acquaintance of soap and\nwater for some days.\n\nThe teacher is one of the advanced pupils of our academy--a bright young\nman, who will attend our school when his is completed. We ask where the\nrest of the scholars are.\n\n\"Pulling fodder or stripping cane,\" is the reply. And the children have\nto work so much in the fields that they seldom have the chance of\nattending school. Out of fifty or sixty scholars only a very few ever\nattend these public schools. But it is growing late, and we have a long,\nrough way before us, so we spur on toward home, reaching it just as the\nglow of the sunset dies away from the last distant peak and the dusky\ntwilight settles down over the whole land.\n\nA hurried supper and then to the church prayer meeting. Here are\ngathered quite a number, and we have a very good meeting, feeling the\npresence of our Saviour in our midst. So closes one of our days, and\nwearied in body, but refreshed and strengthened in spirit, we go to\nrest.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nSOUTHERN FIELD NOTES.\n\nREV. GEORGE W. MOORE.\n\n\nThe mission station recently opened at La Pine, in the black belt of\nAlabama, is a door of hope to that needy people. The people came for\nmiles around to greet the missionary and to hear the Gospel. At another\npoint in Alabama we found a promising field which one of our theological\ngraduates from Talladega had opened. He began the work in a rented hall\nat his own cost, and after he had gathered a congregation and found it a\nneedy and at the same time a hopeful field he raised the \"Macedonian\ncry\" to the American Missionary Association for help. The Pauline\nheroism of this brother in preaching the Gospel in his own hired house\nis shared by our brethren in various parts of our Southern field. The\nwork is so large and the needs of the people are so great that this\nspirit of Christ must be more fully expressed, both in gifts and\nservice, to reach the pressing calls for help.\n\nI met three interesting characters in the black belt of Georgia. The\nfirst was named Moses. On meeting him he addressed me with \"You don't\nknows me, does you? My name is Moses.\" His friend \"Uncle Plenty\" lived\nin a little cabin by the roadside. He had heard of the Association, and\nwas glad to greet me as one of its missionaries. He told me that he felt\nso thankful for what the Northern friends had done for his people that\nhe wished his little cabin and half acre lot to be bequeathed to the\nAmerican Missionary Association. I dined with \"Uncle Plenty\" and met\nFather Joshua, a poor old blind man ninety years of age, in his cabin.\nThey told me the story of their lives in slavery and how they had prayed\nto see this day of freedom and light.\n\nMoses and Joshua and \"Uncle Plenty\" are types of the old people and\ntimes that are giving place to a new generation and a brighter day.\n\nAmong the new enterprises reported at the meeting of the Georgia\nAssociation at Thomasville, Ga., were two churches and several missions\nfrom the vicinity of Columbia, S.C.\n\nI spent Thanksgiving Day at Lowell, N.C. Our mission at this point is\nthe only church in that vicinity. It was the first Thanksgiving service\nthey had ever enjoyed or even heard of. It was held in a log cabin.\n\nLowell is the center of a large negro settlement; the people have had a\nhard lot, and but little opportunity to improve their condition. They\nare very grateful to hear the Gospel.\n\nForefather's day was observed by the Nashville churches in the\ntheological hall of Fisk University. We \"spiritual children\" of the\nPilgrims honor the fathers whose descendants have enriched us through\nthe A.M.A. by the schools and churches that have been planted among us.\nThe church at Lexington, Ky., had a season of \"refreshing\" in December,\nwhen several heads of families united with it. Howard church, Nashville,\nalso had an awakening with good results. This church has increased its\nmembership fifty per cent. in fifteen months. Jackson Street Church,\nNashville, held a recognition service for its new pastor in January.\n\nWe were glad to greet the churches and brethren of Louisiana after an\nabsence from them of two years. The Spain Street Church at New Orleans\nheld a series of Gospel meetings in which a number avowed their faith in\nthe Saviour, and the church was strengthened.\n\nStraight University is crowded with an earnest class of students.\n\nThis school is doing a great work for the people of Louisiana and\nsurrounding States. In spite of the hard times, which are very severe in\nthe South (laborers in Louisiana and some other States receive only\nfifty cents a day and board themselves), the people are making great\nsacrifices for the education of their children, and our pastors and\nteachers are making heroic struggles that the work in school and church\nmay go forward.\n\nThe need of the continuance of the work was never greater and the\nresults of the service of our workers were never better. To retrench\nfurther at this time would not only cripple the work among the needy\npeoples of our field, but shut the door of opportunity in many places,\nand injure the people in their efforts to rise, and discourage our\nself-sacrificing missionaries. The people are grateful for these schools\nand churches and need more of them. We appeal to our Northern friends to\ncome to the rescue of the American Missionary Association at this time.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nA SCHOOLBOY'S COMPOSITION.\n\n\nA little lad six years of age in the primary grade of Knox Institute,\nAthens, Ga., attended rhetoricals in which several pupils read\ncompositions on the subject of America. He was greatly impressed, went\nhome, and wrote without supervision the composition below. Although he\nhas put the raccoon, lion and tiger among the birds, it is certainly a\npretty good composition for the first one written by a child six years\nof age. Could any of the children six years old to whom THE AMERICAN\nMISSIONARY may come do better than this little black boy?\n\nAMERICA.\n\nAmerica is a large country, and it has many large rivers, and it has\nmany animals, and has wild creatures.\n\nAmerica is a most important country. And many a people like to go there.\nAnd it has many wild birds--mocking birds, nightingale, raccoon, and\nalso the opossum and lion, tiger, elephant, and the rhinoceros.\n\nAnd in America there are lakes, seas, and the bushes are so thick that\nyou can hardly tell when a human is beside them.\n\nThe States in America are so large that ten hundred can get in these.\nBut if one of the animals was to seize you once you would never want to\ngo there any more, for if one of them get hold of you you would hollow\nlike anything. It would settle your hash. It would frighten you so much\nyou never would want to see one of them.\n\nHALL JOHNSON,\nAge 6, December 16, 1894.\n\n       *       *       *       *       *\n\nWOMAN'S STATE ORGANIZATIONS.\n\n\nMAINE.\n\nWOMAN'S AID TO A.M.A.\n\n_State Committee_--Mrs. Ida Vose Woodbury,\n  Woodfords; Mrs. A.T.
