XLV. FEBRUARY, 1891. No. 2.\nAmerican Missionary Association.\n\n\n\n_OUR LIST OF FIELD WORKERS._\n\nWe present herewith our usual February list of missionaries, in church\nand school, through the field of the Association. In this list many\nthousands of our readers will recognize familiar names, some through\npersonal associations and others through their long-time acquaintance\nwith the work of the Association. It is no unimportant feature of the\ngreat principle of co-operation on which our work is founded that we can\nreckon upon a large force of long-tried and experienced workers in the\nfield. The Association has a wealth of wisdom in planning and carrying\non its work, by its ability to call into requisition the knowledge and\nefforts of those who have spent many years in the South, and are\nintimately acquainted with the needs, difficulties and advantages of the\nwork. Many individualistic schemes have failed at this point; but the\nAssociation has developed a force that can be relied upon for the\nintelligent investigation of new openings, the prudent planning of work\nand its wise and steady support and development. At the same time,\nassociated with our older workers, we have the younger missionaries and\nteachers with their fresh enthusiasm and fervent zeal, giving new\nimpulse of activity all along the line. This long list of names\nrepresents years of self-denying attention and steady effort; it speaks\nof large progress in the past and is the presage of still greater\nprogress in the future, for the list grows year by year. Our resources\nand forces were never before so large as during the past year, and we\nare encouraged to hope that they will be increased during the year to\ncome.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_FINANCIAL._\n\nOur current receipts for December were nearly $52,000, an increase of\n$11,000 over those of December, 1889. For the first quarter of our\npresent fiscal year the current receipts amount to $106,000, as against\n$100,000 for the corresponding period of last year. We thankfully\nappreciate every enlargement of our resources, and shall continue to use\nour best endeavors to keep the work within the means provided for it.\nHow difficult this is can be understood only by those who are in\nconstant receipt of numerous exigent calls for work in the great\npopulations among which our service lies. As a matter of record,\nnotwithstanding the utmost care on our part, while our receipts for this\nquarter have gained $6,000 over those of last year, our expenses have\nincreased $12,000. We are profoundly grateful for the increasing public\ninterest and Christian co-operation in the work of the American\nMissionary Association, and hope that the gifts of the churches will\ncontinue to be accompanied by their counsels and their prayers.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_THEOLOGICAL INSTRUCTION._\n\nThe association is undertaking to supply the serious need, met all along\nits lines of missionary service, of a more intelligent and consecrated\nministry. For the use of our Biblical Training School for the ministry,\nat Fisk University, we are engaged in the erection of the building; and\nthe work has been taken hold of by the Fisk University Singers, who are\nmeeting with cheering encouragement in the churches. It is our hope\nthat, within the coming year, an adequate structure may be provided for\nthis important work.\n\nThe theological department at Howard University has received a valuable\naccession to its faculty in the person of Prof. Ewell. This work will\nnow be re-classified and developed, and will offer unexcelled advantages\nfor practical training in preparation for the gospel ministry.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_CONFERENCE WITH INDIAN COMMISSIONERS._\n\nThe Annual Conference of the Board of Indian Commissioners with the\nrepresentatives of the various religious bodies having charge of Indian\nMissions was held in the parlors of the Riggs House, January 8th. The\npresence of Senator Dawes, Representative Cutcheon, and other\ndistinguished persons, gave weight to the deliberations, and special\ninterest was added to the meeting by the troubles now prevailing in the\nDakotas among the Sioux Indians. Commissioner Morgan, Captain Pratt of\nthe Carlisle School, General Armstrong of Hampton, and the Secretaries\nof the Missionary Societies presented an array of facts and of recent\ninformation that gave a more favorable aspect to the situation than is\ngenerally entertained. The disturbance among the Indians is confined to\nat most 5,000 among the 250,000, and strong hopes are entertained that\nserious bloodshed may be avoided. And yet, so great is the uncertainty\nhanging over this matter, that before these lines reach our readers, the\ndaily press may give sad news of battle and disaster.\n\nThe discussions of the Conference were ended with a series of\nresolutions, the purport of which may thus be summed up: The Dakota\ntrouble is confined to a small number of Indians, and is due to the\ninevitable opposition of the chiefs and anti-progressive elements among\nthe masses of the Indians. The removal of experienced Indian Agents for\npolitical reasons was deprecated, and the importance of permanence in\nthe lines of policy pursued in the educational and Christianizing\ninfluences was emphasized. Larger appropriations by the Government to\nestablish an adequate system of common-school education, until every\nIndian child is enabled to attend school, compulsory education and the\ncontinued support to contract schools, and additional facilities for\nsecuring lands in severalty to the Indians, were endorsed.\n\nThe decision which it was understood the Government had made, not to\ntransfer the care of the Indians to the War Department, was warmly\napprobated.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_THE INDIAN PROBLEM._\n\n The present difficulties among the Indians in the Dakotas will\n probably lead to a re-consideration of the whole system by which\n the Government and the nation deals with these people. As a\n contribution to that discussion, we present in condensed form some\n suggestions recently published in a Boston paper, from our esteemed\n friend, S.B. Capen, Esq., whose intelligent interest in the Indian\n entitles his opinion to thoughtful consideration:\n\nWhile public attention is everywhere called to this matter, it is time\nto agitate for a radical change in the whole administration of the\nIndian service. We believe that this should be disconnected entirely\nfrom the Department of the Interior, and be made a _separate\ndepartment_. This whole Indian question is so important and so complex\nthat it ought not to be simply an annex to a department which has under\nits control land, patents, etc. It should stand by itself; there should\nno longer be a divided responsibility, which is always productive of\nevil. We are finding the necessity in our cities of making\nresponsibility more direct and personal. The time, we believe, has fully\ncome to reorganize the Indian service on this basis. Our criticism is\nnot against any individual, but against a system which is the growth of\nmany years.\n\nWe would suggest the following;\n\n1. Have the Commissioner of Indian Affairs responsible only to the\nPresident and to the public. What he does, or may do, shall not be\ncontrolled by the Department of the Interior.\n\n2. Ask Congress to provide such legislation that no agents or teachers\nshall ever be removed without proper cause.\n\n3. All inspectors and special agents shall be under the absolute control\nof the Commissioner.\n\n4. There shall be a division of the Indian reservation into school\ndistricts, with an assistant superintendent for each. It shall be their\nduty to visit the schools constantly, and keep themselves in full\nsympathy and touch with the work. This is the method in the States--an\nofficial responsible for a field which he can properly cover.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_EDUCATORS' CONVENTION._\n\nThe recent Educators' Convention of Atlanta was a large and significant\ngathering. Such consultations of teachers carry a wide and beneficial\ninfluence. We learn that the papers and addresses were of a high\ncharacter, and that the discussions were carried on with great interest,\nand we have no doubt that the educational work throughout the South will\nfeel the upward impulse of this Convention.\n\nWe quote the following paragraph from the excellent report in the\n_Congregationalist_:\n\n The importance of the work of the Convention may be indicated by\n the topics discussed: Education in Rural Districts, Relative\n Mortality of the Colored Race, Hygiene, Industrial Training, Better\n Teaching in the Elementary Grades, A Scientific Course in the\n College Curriculum, Compulsory Education, What Can the Negro Do?\n What the Ministry is Doing to Elevate the Freedmen. A resume was\n given of the educational work of the different denominations,\n mainly by the secretaries of their educational societies. The\n reports of the colored Methodist churches were especially\n interesting, as indicating the gratifying extent to which the\n colored people are taking hold of the work of their own education.\n No paper of the Convention, however, was received with such\n spontaneous enthusiasm and applause as the report of Dr. Beard of\n the work of the American Missionary Association. It was the\n eloquence of facts. The proceedings of the Association will\n constitute a large volume, which will soon be published and widely\n circulated.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_\"AN OPEN PATH FOR TALENT.\"_\n\nNapoleon said this was the meaning of the French Revolution. He gave\npromotion in the army not for what a man's ancestry had been, but for\nwhat the man himself could do. Who else ever had such efficient\nsubordinates? Opportunities became open generally in France, according\nto each one's personal ability. The excesses of the revolutionary period\nwere transitory. The enlargement of the nation's power, by removing the\nfetters of prescription, has been permanent. The recuperative energy\ndisplayed by France in the last twenty years is a marvelous example of\nthe strength imparted by liberty.\n\nThe educational work of the American Missionary Association in the South\nmakes no revolutionary disturbance. It quietly opens a path for talent\nwhose existence had been before unnoticed or denied. It has been already\ninstrumental in bringing forward many men and women to positions of\ninfluence. Beginning with the lowest branches of education, it trained\nthe first colored teachers for the State school systems. Its schools\nfor higher education have as yet come far short of supplying the demand\nfor advanced teachers and for educated ministers and other educated\nprofessional and business men.\n\nWe cannot make talent, but opening the door for talent to find\ndevelopment and activity adds rich gifts to the Nation's life.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_IRRESPONSIBLE INSTITUTIONS._\n\n_The Independent_, in its Symposium of December 11th upon Gen. Booth's\nPlan, has an article from Charles D. Kellogg, Superintendent of the\nCharity Organization Society, in which, referring to a certain\nirresponsible piece of charity, he says:\n\n We do not believe that it is right for any one to ask for the\n support of such an individual enterprise, except from those who\n give it because of personal knowledge and confidence in the\n manager. When the public is appealed to, such contributions take on\n the nature of trust funds, the receipts and disbursements of which\n should be audited and accounted for in the fullest and frankest\n manner. To encourage such private, uncontrolled and unaccounted for\n undertakings, is simply to open the door for any number of\n conscienceless schemers who are quick to impose upon the benevolent\n public.\n\nThe same is true of irresponsible educational institutions. All who\nreceive funds for such charitable purposes, are virtually stewards of\n_trust money_ and ought to give an account of the same. All properties\nthus developed ought to be put into a shape to be held securely and\nperpetuated, and not left to become the personal possession of the\nsolicitors. Pious zeal and \"faith\" do not prevent the waste in such a\ncase. \"Wisdom would not put cut and hammer-faced stone for the\nfoundation of a mountain school house, and costly glass in the windows,\"\nbut \"faith\" has done this, and keeps on doing similar things.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_NOTES FROM NEW ENGLAND._\n\nBy District Secretary C.J. Ryder, Boston, Mass.\n\n\nTWO WAYS OF DOING IT.\n\n\"So you have come! Well! I don't know but it is just as favorable a time\nas any. Still, we are in a very pinched condition. We have a debt that\nwe have carried for ten years and have scarcely been able to pay the\ninterest. The parsonage is in a desperate condition, and we are very far\nfrom comfortable in it. Secretary Hood was here two months ago, and he\nstirred the people up and took all that ought to be given to any of our\nBenevolent Societies. Then, a month ago, Puddefoot was here, and you\nknow he sweeps in everything that can possibly be reached. I sometimes\nthink that he awakens too much interest, and that the churches give too\nlarge collections. Our women are all interested in the American Board,\nand will not feel like doing much for the American Missionary\nAssociation Still, it is the time for our annual collection, and I\nthink no harm can come from an address on the A.M.A. work to-morrow. We\nare very glad to see you.\"\n\n_This is one way._\n\n\"How do you do, dear old friend? I declare, it seems as if I had known\nyou a life-time. I am ever so glad you could come and speak to my church\nto-morrow. We need stirring up tremendously. Although my people are a\nlarge-hearted, generous people, they are so much absorbed with our own\ninterests here, that I fear sometimes they do not appreciate the larger\nwork done through the Benevolent Societies. Secretary Creegan was here a\nlittle while ago and took away a splendid collection, but he left a lot\nof ripe grain to be gathered in the harvest of some other society. Then,\ndear old Puddefoot came here and rattled the dry bones till he made\nliving men and women out of some of the skeletons. He took away one of\nthe largest checks that ever went from our congregation to any\nbenevolent cause. Secretary Maile presented the work of the College and\nEducation Society in such a way as to rouse the people to a sense of its\ngreat importance. We are wonderfully glad to see you and you see are all\nready for another ingathering to-morrow. These brethren have left more\nthan they took away in money, and have enlarged the scope of vision of a\ngood many people. They see the importance and the growing needs of these\nMission fields, as never before. Put in your best blows to-morrow. Don't\nbe afraid that you will take anything away that ought to remain in the\ncommunity; that isn't possible. God bless you in the splendid work the\nA.M.A. is doing!\"\n\nNow, brethren, these are two typical ways of meeting the collecting\nSecretary when he calls.\n\n_Which is the better way?_\n\n * * * * *\n\n\nWHAT THE YOUNG PEOPLE AND CHILDREN ARE DOING THROUGH THE AMERICAN\nMISSIONARY ASSOCIATION.\n\nThe readers of this department of the AMERICAN MISSIONARY magazine will\nremember that some time ago the Busy Bees in the First Church in Dover,\nN.H., contributed money enough to furnish the nucleus of a greatly\nneeded Reference Library at Gregory Institute, Wilmington, N.C. This was\nthe beginning of several such movements on the part of the young people\nand children. The Y.P.S.C.E. of Dorchester contributed a goodly sum for\nthe establishment of such a library at Grand View, Tenn. A gift toward\nthe work in Alaska comes from the Y.P.S.C.E. at Dedham. A good many\nSunday-schools have also contributed both to the general fund and to\nspecial objects. In Gorham, Maine, the children were greatly interested\nin the Stereopticon Exhibition, which was conducted by our faithful\nmissionary, Rev. S.E. Lathrop. Three of them determined to give\nsomething substantial to this work. In order to raise money, they held\na Fair, making with their own hands many of the articles that were for\nsale. This resulted in a considerable amount, which was supplemented by\na gift from the Sunday-school to constitute one of these children,\nRobert Hinkley, a boy eight years of age, a Life Member of the American\nMissionary Association. Is he not the youngest Life Member of our\nAssociation? Cannot we have some letters from our friends giving the\nages of children who are Life Members? If any feel disposed to \"beat the\nrecord\" by the payment of thirty dollars, they can confer this honor\nupon their baby boy or girl. One baby in New England, at least, has\ncontributed to the work among the millions of neglected children, just\nby being born. The father, a pastor of one of our churches, hands into\nthe treasury each year one dollar for each pound the baby weighs. When\nthis is known, there will be many of our missionaries who will be\npraying for the health and rapid growth of that baby!\n\nIn Melrose, also, the \"Golden Rule Mission Band\" are helping our great\nwork, and at the same time gaining an intelligent knowledge of this\nfield. At the beginning of the summer one dollar and twenty-five cents\nwas distributed among them, each one taking five cents. This was the\nseed from which they reaped a harvest of twenty-six dollars. The\nfollowing are some of the methods by which they secured this remarkable\nresult. One little girl bought flower-seeds and raised flowers which she\nsold, and made five dollars from her five cents. Another made candy and\nsold it. A little boy had a peanut stand, and one little fellow earned\nhis money by \"going without things.\" Could not older people follow his\nexample? It suggests Thoreau's epigram, \"Your wealth is measured by the\nnumber of things you can go without;\" or, better yet, Paul's magnificent\nwords, \"poor, yet making many rich.\" This little fellow has hit upon the\nreal principle of success, whether the life is spent in a field of\nactive missionary work, or in \"doing without things\" for Christ's sake,\nthat His name may be proclaimed, and that His kingdom may come.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_CALLS FOR BOOKS._\n\nCalls often come to us from the field for hymn books. Churches or\nindividuals having unused books, enough of the same kind to supply a\nsmall congregation, can get them put where they will do the most good by\nsending them to our rooms prepaid.\n\nIf any of our pastors have BARNES' NOTES in complete or incomplete sets,\nwhich they may now no longer need, the American Missionary Association\ncan use them most profitably in supplying their young missionaries. Send\nthem to us at the Bible House.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_THE FIELD._\n\n1890-1891.\n\nThe following list presents the names and post-office addresses of those\nwho are employed in the Churches, Institutions and Schools aided by the\nAmerican Missionary Association.\n\n\n_THE SOUTH._\n\n Rev.

Collins to the gospel ministry. Rev. A.W.\nCurtis of Raleigh was Moderator, and Rev. A. Connet of McLeansville,\nScribe.\n\nA gracious religious interest is reported from Fisk University,\nNashville, Tenn., and many hopeful conversions have gladdened the hearts\nof our teachers there. The pastor of the Howard Church at Nashville,\nTenn., writes us of twenty-one conversions during Mr. Wharton's stay\nwith him. Six conversions are also reported at Thomasville, Ga.\n\nFrom Knoxville, Tenn., comes this word: The labors of Mr. and Mrs.\nWharton were greatly blessed of the Lord, the hearts of Christians were\nrevived and twenty-six souls were brought to the knowledge of Christ. We\nare very hopeful of many of the most promising and influential young\npeople. Our Sabbath-school has just been reorganized and a number of the\nconverts have been put into active service. We expect good results to\nfollow the work of the evangelists for a long time to come.\n\nFrom Memphis, Tenn: Our attendance for last November ran up to the\ngoodly number 508. The present month will show an advance on this\nnumber, and for January we expect to reach the 550 stage. The increase\nmust be confined chiefly to the night school, which is flourishing.\n\nAt the recent Tenth Anniversary of the Lincoln Memorial Church in\nWashington, the following facts were stated:\n\nThe church was organized January 10, 1881, with eleven members, and its\npresent enrollment is 235. It has sustained a sewing-school, in which\nover 400 girls have been taught. It held night schools until night\nschools were opened in the public schools, and it now sustains a\nkindergarten. It has sustained various branches of missionary,\ntemperance and charitable work. It has a flourishing Sunday-school and\nsenior and junior Societies of Christian Endeavor.\n\nA Sunday-school superintendent in the South needs a Bible Dictionary for\nthe use of himself and his school. Who will send a good second-hand one\nfor him? We will forward it.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_TOUGALOO UNIVERSITY, MISS._\n\nThe University of Tougaloo is most beautifully located on a plantation\nof five hundred acres among great oak trees festooned with Spanish moss.\nWe have been having delightful weather for the past month, corresponding\nsomewhat to our Northern October weather.\n\nIt is truly pitiful to think how most of our pupils have lived before\ncoming here. One girl had never seen a flight of stairs before and stood\nhelplessly at the bottom, not knowing how to climb them: and finally\nattempted to go up on her hands and knees as she had climbed a ladder.\nBut whatever they have been accustomed to before, they can never live\nthe same again after having been here.\n\nThe one-roomed cabin is said to be the curse of the Negro, but the white\nman built it for him and it remains for him to give him a desire for\nsomething better. The Negro is essentially religious but he fails to\nconnect religion and morals. When you call upon one of the old aunties,\nshe talks about getting religion and what a glorious thing it is, and\ndescribes visions of heaven and hell to you in the most vivid language:\nbut that doesn't prevent her drinking whiskey or telling lies. I have no\ndoubt, however, that some of the most egregious sins of these old slaves\nare less in the eyes of God than many of our smaller ones.\n\nThe students here carry on two literary societies and four religious\norganizations, besides several little missionary societies; the King's\nDaughters, the King's Sons, Young Men's Christian Association, and a\nsociety called the Covenanters. The latter, however, have no meeting\noutside of the regular Wednesday evening prayer-meeting, to which they\ncome prepared to take a part. This makes our Wednesday evening meetings\nvery interesting. It might not be a bad plan to have a body of\nCovenanters in some of our Northern churches.\n\nThe students work hard here. There are only a very few who have money\nenough to pay their expenses. They begin school at seven in the morning\nand finish at half past three. They work from that time until supper and\nhave study hours in the evening in the school-room, so that they have\nabsolutely no time for recreation, and Saturdays they work all day. Many\nof them teach all summer after having been in school all the year. It is\nreally wonderful the way many of them do and it is a great pleasure to\nteach them.\n\nWithin the last two months we have commenced work among the churches\nwithin four or five miles of here. Many of our older students make\nexcellent helpers and are so glad to go and teach in the Sunday-schools\nand help their ignorant brethren in any way they can. I have never heard\none of our students express a desire to leave the South for anything\nmore than to complete his education. The most of them are planning to\nwork among their own people, teaching and carrying on trades in a way\nthat will be an example to the rest.\n\nPres. Woodworth has a class composed of the pastors of the neighboring\nchurches, who meet him twice a week. Most of them can scarcely read a\nchapter intelligently. Pres. Woodworth has taken up the Gospel of Mark\nwith them and is explaining it to them and showing them how to preach\nfrom it, and they seem very appreciative, and say it is strange how long\nthey have misunderstood things.\n\nConsidering the various opportunities for work in the school and\nsurrounding country, one could not ask for a more satisfactory field\nthan Tougaloo.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_CONGREGATIONAL CHURCHES IN CHARLESTON, S.C._\n\nBy Superintendent R.C. Hitchcock\n\nOf much interest to me is the \"Circular Church\" in Charleston. As early\nas 1690 a wooden building was erected on the site now occupied by the\nCircular church, the street being named \"Meeting Street\" and the\nbuilding known as the \"White Meeting.\" Its members were Scotch\nIndependents and Presbyterians, with a considerable element of Huguenots\nfrom France. For one hundred fourteen years this house was used as a\nplace of worship, for the first forty of which the two bodies maintained\na union, after that two churches were formed, the Independents or\nCongregationalists retaining the house. In 1731 the Presbyterians\nerected a wooden building on the east side of the same street, many of\nthe Scotch going with this body. During the Revolutionary war, while the\ncity was held by the British, the church was used as a storehouse and\nits interior shared the fate of the Boston \"Old South.\" Its congregation\nwas composed of both white and colored members, but only \"freemen\" could\nvote in meeting.\n\nThe Civil War with its results, effected a separation of the white and\ncolored members, the white people rebuilding their lecture-room, the\ncolored worshiping in various places until 1867, when a letter was sent\nthe old church by a number of the former members, requesting an\nhonorable dismissal. This was granted and one hundred eight colored\npeople presented themselves for membership in a church contemplating\norganization, as a Congregational church, to be called\n\n PLYMOUTH CHURCH.\n\nThis organization was consummated April 14, 1867, under the auspices of\nthe American Missionary Association. And in 1872 a suitable edifice was\nerected on Pitt Street at a cost of $5,000. The present pastor, Rev.\nGeo. C. Rowe, is much beloved by his people.\n\nA tasteful parsonage is being erected on the church lot. It was greatly\nneeded. Plymouth Church is reaching out in schools and missions among\nthe colored people with earnest efficiency.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_BUREAU OF WOMAN'S WORK._\n\nMiss D.E. Emerson, Secretary\n\n\n_OUR HOSPITAL AT FORT YATES, N.D._\n\nBy The Physician in Charge, Cynthia E. Pingree, M.D.\n\nI am sure that all will be glad to hear a word about the hospital for\nIndians, especially as there is nothing but good news to tell.\n\nThis hospital has now been built about two years. It will seem very\nsmall when I tell you that it has but two wards, containing three cots\neach, a bath-room, dispensary, reception room, doctor's and nurse's room\nand dining room; and yet when the patient comes to us, he feels that we\nhave not only every convenience, but a great many luxuries, and from\nthis little Woasui Tipi or House of Healing, goes out many a ray to\ngladden the hearts of those whom we to-day are trying to bring from\ndarkness into light.\n\nBut little has been done for these people when ill, except conjuring,\nwhich is synonymous with torturing, but these \"medicine men\" are\nlosing their hold upon the faith of those who at one time, and that\nnot long past, trusted them fully, and the more intelligent ones\ngladly avail themselves of treatment. And no class of people needs it\nmore, the filthy manner in which they live causing much sickness. It\nhas been a great surprise to me as well as to them, to see how much\nsimple cleanliness will do in very many of these cases. The old rule,\n\"remove the cause, the disease is removed,\" holds true in these cases.\nIt is encouraging to see how soon some of these come to see the great\nimportance of this.\n\nI have in mind now a bright little boy nine years old, who was brought\nto me wrapped in filthy old rags, unable to take one step on account of\nterrible sores, which had received no attention whatever. The mother's\nheart was very sad as she told me this was the only boy she had, five\nhaving died. All the while I was attending to the little fellow the\nmother carefully watched. She was given all that was necessary to use\nfor two weeks and when they returned, at the end of that time, it was\nvery evident that the boy had received good care. The mother cared for\nhim almost entirely after this, and in two months he came _running_\nacross the prairie, his braided hair just flying, asking for a piece of\nbread. While the child was not cured, he had been made comfortable, the\nparents' hearts had been lightened of a great sorrow, and they had\nlearned more than one lesson in thus caring for their child.\n\nThis is only one of many cases. Until they feel their illness is\nwell-nigh fatal they prefer the tent to the hospital, and even then a\ngreat many wish to die out of doors. So that often the family come with\nthe ill one and camp just outside the yard. The hospital wards bring\ncomfort to two classes principally; the more civilized Indian, who\nrealizes the great benefit derived from good nursing, and those\nfriendless ones who are brought because they are too much trouble\nelsewhere. Both of these classes are very grateful for all they receive.\nThe dispensary is open all the time and a great many are provided with\nmedicine. I think the friends of this Hospital may be of good cheer.\n\n * * * * *\n\n\n_WOMAN'S STATE ORGANIZATIONS._\n\nCo-operating with the American Missionary Association\n\n\nMAINE.\n\n WOMAN'S AID TO A.M.A.\n Chairman of Committee--Mrs. C.A.
