XLIX.\nJUNE, 1895.\nNo. 5.\n\n\n\n\nFINANCES.\n\n\nThe outlook is not bright. The receipts for March from both donations and\nestates have fallen off so that in spite of retrenchments the total\nindebtedness is somewhat increased. We have now reached the close of the\nfirst six months of the fiscal year, and, with a decrease of $11,246.73 in\nall items of expenditure, the debt is $79,696.61. In the last (April)\nnumber of THE MISSIONARY it was shown that there had been during the\nprevious three months a small but actual reduction of the debt. The\npresent showing brings the figures back to what they were substantially in\nJanuary last.\n\nWe hope this falling off is but temporary. We know the pressure of the\ntimes and the difficulty of obtaining money. We are fully aware, too, that\nmany of our friends make their contributions with self-denial, but,\nstanding as we do, with the responsibility for the great work entrusted to\nthis Association, and knowing how vital it is to the welfare and uplifting\nof the impoverished and ignorant races of our land, we feel constrained to\npress the call still farther upon both rich and poor for the means to\ncontinue the assistance to these needy peoples.\n\n\n\n\nLET IT BE REMEMBERED:\n\n\n1. That the American Missionary Association was the first to enter the\nwork of educating and uplifting the Freedmen of the South, and the first\nto introduce industrial training into the schools.\n\n2. That it has done the largest work in that field, having spent more\nmoney and educated more pupils than any other society.\n\n3. That it has extended its work among the mountaineers of the South, the\nIndians of the West, the Chinese on the Pacific Coast and the Eskimos in\nAlaska--its field extending thus from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and\nfrom the Gulf of Mexico to the Arctic Circle.\n\n4. That it has been chosen by National Councils, State Associations, and\nlocal organizations to do the work in these fields and among these peoples\nfor the Congregational churches of the United States.\n\n5. That its expanding and important work is restricted by the want of\nadequate funds, and that while Congregationalists--churches and\nindividuals--have the undoubted right to exercise their own choice in\naiding institutions in these particular fields, outside of the work of the\nAssociation, yet they ought to bear in mind their responsibility to\nsustain the Association in the work which they assign to it.\n\n\n\n\nCHURCH WORK IN THE SOUTH.\n\n\nWe invite the attention of our readers to the illustrated article \"In\nNorth Carolina.\" This sketch covers but a limited portion of our great\nwork, but it shows the relations it bears to its surroundings in the\npublic life of the South. Our churches in this district are prosperous,\nand we are gratified to say that the promise of church extension over our\nwider districts is very encouraging. Eight new churches will be added to\nour list immediately among the colored people, and others still are\nexpected soon to be added. In the mountain work, also, five new churches\nwill be added to our enrollment.\n\n\n\nThe next number of THE AMERICAN MISSIONARY will contain an extended\narticle, with illustrations, on our mountain work, hence nothing appears\nin this number regarding this field.\n\n\n\n\nFRIGHT AT A CAMERA.\n\n\nOur readers will find in the account given on another page, of street\npreaching in Chinatown, the statement that a large crowd was gathered in\nthe street, but when the picture is examined the crowd seems very small.\nLoo Quong gives this account of the matter: \"A big crowd was gathered to\nus soon after we sang some hymns, but as soon as the photographer on sight\nthey all ran away. Chinese do not want their pictures to be taken on the\nstreet. They all ran to the other side of the street and I told the man to\ntake them there, but they all ran away, too. Still some of them are\ntaken.\"\n\n\n\n\nREVIVAL SERVICES IN THE MOUNTAINS.--Revival movements have been very\ngeneral in our mountain churches and missions this year and many hundreds\nhave been hopefully converted.\n\n\"Seven persons made application for membership in our church last Sabbath.\nThey are all converted people. If they are received it will make a\nmembership of thirty-three, including Mrs. Doane and myself. I have been\nholding revival services at a school-house where they have slabs for\nbenches without backs to them. Part of a log was taken out to make a\nwindow. People come seven and eight miles to the services. They seem\nanxious to hear the Gospel preached. They do not seem to care for mud or\nrain. I hope this will find the American Missionary Association getting\nout of debt. My people are ready and anxious to contribute to the support\nof the church. They have sold eggs and saved money, and it is often slow\nwork.\"\n\n\n\n\nA PASSAGE AT ARMS.--White children whose parents are laboring in colored\nschools are sometimes taunted by the unkind remarks of ill-mannered youth\nwith whom they come in contact. For example, the little daughter of one of\nour teachers was told, \"Your papa teaches niggers.\" The reply came quick\nas a flash: \"Well, your papa sells them whiskey, and that is worse.\"\nAnother threatened to beat her at recess. She promptly said: \"You can't do\nit. My grandpa beat yours in the war.\"\n\n\n\n\nA SUBSCRIPTION LIST.\n\n\nBY A GEORGIA TEACHER.\n\nI inclose something I thought might interest you. The idea of circulating\nthe paper originated with the girls and the money was nearly all raised\nwithout our knowledge. We added enough to buy a serviceable pair of shoes.\nThe poor girl to whom they were given was almost barefooted and stayed at\nhome Saturday afternoon when the others went for their walk. The\nthoughtfulness and generosity of the girls touched us, for what they gave\nwas to most of them a real sacrifice.\n\n                         THE APPEAL OF THE GIRLS.\n\n\"While sitting in church to-day my heart was made to feel sad as I sat by\none of the girls. I noticed that she was almost barefooted and has been\nfor quite a while. Miss C. and I, feeling ourselves unable to purchase a\npair of shoes, concluded we would ask all who will help us to please\nassist us, not for our sake, but for the Lord's sake.\n\n\"Miss E.

North Carolina has a population of about a million white\nand half a million colored people; while of the million inhabitants of\nSouth Carolina a large majority are colored. In the two States there are a\nmillion and a quarter of colored people.\n\n            [Illustration: MOUNTAIN VIEW, BLOWING ROCK, N. C.]\n\n                    MOUNTAIN VIEW, BLOWING ROCK, N. C.\n\n\nThe length of North Carolina, east and west, is considerably greater than\nthe distance between Boston and Washington. The western part of the State\nis mountainous. From its heights the state slopes into the vast Piedmont\nPlateau, a sub-mountain terrace, and thence into the low country or the\nAtlantic plain. In western North Carolina the Appalachian Mountains reach\nthe greatest height in the United States eastward of the Rocky Mountains.\nThe eye of an observer from the heights near Blowing Rock descries in one\nview mountain summits in Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee and South Carolina.\nThe people of western North Carolina are white by a vast majority, while\nin the eastern part of the State the black population predominates. In\ntwenty-five of the western counties 88 per cent. of the people are white.\nIn the same number of the farthest eastern counties there is a majority of\nten thousand black people. In accordance with this fundamental fact, the\nwork of the American Missionary Association in the western part of the\nState is chiefly among the white, and in the eastern part of the State,\namong the black people.\n\nIn both Carolinas the vast majority of the population is rural. According\nto the last census there was only one city in each State with more than\ntwenty thousand people, and only six places with more than ten thousand.\n\nIn Wilmington, the largest city of North Carolina, the American Missionary\nAssociation began work as the war was closing. Of the twenty-four thousand\npeople in the county, fourteen thousand are black. Fourteen years ago Mr.\nJ. J. H. Gregory, of Massachusetts, became much interested in this field\nand erected a fine brick church and commodious school buildings. The\ncombined church and school work have gone on with continued efficiency and\nprosperity. There is a strong desire on the part of the people for the\ndevelopment of an industrial department in the school. The elevating\ninfluence of the church is felt not only in Wilmington, but throughout the\nsurrounding communities. A great many of the school students have become\nteachers in the city schools and in different parts of the State.\n\n         [Illustration: CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH, WILMINGTON, N. C.]\n\n                 CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH, WILMINGTON, N. C.\n\n\nWhile Wilmington and Beaufort are both sea-side places, the former is\nchiefly a commercial town while the latter is devoted to the fishing and\noyster industries. The island is swept by refreshing sea breezes, and a\ngreat many of its inhabitants are boatmen and fishermen. The Beaufort\nfisheries extend over a large area in which immense schools of fish are\nfound. In deep sea fishing the nets are dropped to a depth of one hundred\nfeet and drawn up often filled to bursting. Not infrequently whales are\ncaptured off the coast.\n\nNot long ago both the church and school buildings in Beaufort were swept\naway by fire, but they have recently been restored, as seen in the\nillustration. The church is making good progress under its young colored\npastor. The school is crowded. Industrial work is being carried on to a\nlimited extent, and it is hoped that in the coming year an industrial\nbuilding can be erected. Nothing can contribute more to the progress and\nwelfare of the young people than a well-equipped industrial department\nwhere knowledge of trades can be imparted.\n\n             [Illustration: THE WILMINGTON A. M. A. SCHOOL.]\n\n                     THE WILMINGTON A. M. A. SCHOOL.\n\n\nWith their immense preponderance of a country population, naturally the\nlargest part of the Association's mission work in the Carolinas is in the\ncountry. In the North Carolina Congregational Association most of the\nchurches are country churches. The Association meetings are well attended.\nThe accompanying illustration is from a photograph taken at one of the\nrecent meetings in McLeansville, where there are two churches not far\napart. Besides these in this part of the State, there are country churches\nat High Point, Salem, Strieby, Melville, Oaks, Pekin, Dry Creek, Carter's\nMills, Dudley, Malee, Nalls, Troy, Snow Hill, and other points. The annual\nmeetings of the Association are most interesting occasions. Pastors and\npeople of these little churches gather from near and far for fellowship,\nmutual comfort, and inspiration. With some of these churches schools are\nassociated, which afford to the young the opportunities of a Christian\neducation, and contribute from their elder pupils many students for our\nhigher institutions of learning. With the multiplication and development\nof these churches these higher schools will have a steady constituency of\ngreat importance.\n\n                 [Illustration: SCENE IN BEAUFORT, N. C.]\n\n                         SCENE IN BEAUFORT, N. C.\n\n\n                [Illustration: NORTH CAROLINA FISHERIES.]\n\n                        NORTH CAROLINA FISHERIES.\n\n\nThus the Association, so far from confining its work to the cities, is\ndoing a very large share of its work in the country and among country\npeople. Some of this work has been long-continued and has achieved a\nwidespread and beneficial influence in the neighboring communities. The\nself-denying devotion of many years is reaching a most blessed fruitage,\nand those who have given the strength and vigor of a lifetime to the poor\nand despised now find their closing years brightened with the sight of\nwhat has been wrought by their long labors for the advancement of the\nKingdom of Christ. The picture of the Oaks congregation at their church\ndoor is an illustration. There, among the plantations, are two sisters who\nhave given their lives, until the shadows of age have fallen upon them, to\nmissionary work in behalf of the poor colored people. One of them is\ngrowing blind and the other has already become so. While the former feels\nconstrained by her failing sight soon to give up her school work, her more\naged sister has an intense desire to continue, while life lasts, her\nlabors in behalf of those whom she has come to love, while bringing\nblessings to them. Well versed in the Scriptures, she continues to gather\nclasses of young men and plantation teachers and teach them from the Bible\nto prepare them to instruct better those still more ignorant than they.\nAlthough urged by her friends to give up this ministration, she cannot\nbring herself to any other course than that of doing all she can until\n\"the night cometh when no man can work.\" It is at once a pathetic, an\ninspiring and a joyful picture to see this aged blind woman, surrounded by\nher students, opening to them the Scriptures and instructing them in the\nreligion of their common Master.\n\nIn contrast with the quiet home and school work carried on by these two\nwomen and yet to the same end are the labors of such a country pastor as\nMr. Collins. For a number of years, while carrying on regular church work\nat Troy, he has also had charge of several other churches riding scores of\nmiles every week, fording the streams and facing the storms in all kinds\nof weather. At Dry Creek and Nalls, Pekin, Carter's Mills and Malee, he\nhas preached regularly or occasionally and has watched with incessant care\nand labor the development of missions throughout a wide tract of country.\nThe influence of these churches has pervaded many communities. Calls have\ncome to him to develop new church work simply because the poor people of\nother churches have seen and felt the higher standards of piety and purer\nlives among many in the Congregational churches and have desired that they\ntoo might have the advantage of such ministers.\n\n            [Illustration: CHURCH AND SCHOOL, BEAUFORT, N. C.]\n\n                    CHURCH AND SCHOOL, BEAUFORT, N. C.\n\n\nIndeed, this long care of our churches and schools is awakening many new\nmovements among the colored people of the South. Our churches are\ngenerally small and poor, but they have stood steadfastly for human\nrights, for Christian equality and freedom of church membership, and for\nmoral and religious education. While their work has been slow, their\ninfluence has been deep and pervasive, as has been that of our schools,\nsmall and great.\n\n     [Illustration: NORTH CAROLINA STATE ASSOCIATION, McLEANSVILLE.]\n\n             NORTH CAROLINA STATE ASSOCIATION, McLEANSVILLE.\n\n\n             [Illustration: AT THE CHURCH DOOR, OAKS, N. C.]\n\n                     AT THE CHURCH DOOR, OAKS, N. C.\n\n\nIt is an interesting and important fact that the great work of Christian\neducation in behalf of the colored people which has been carried on by the\nAssociation is now producing results in a new direction. Our former\nstudents and pupils, grown into manhood and womanhood, find the church\nlife of their communities greatly inferior to that in which they were\ntrained in our schools. They  are  reaching after something more pure,\nfree and spiritual. The leaven of their intelligence and higher standard\nof morality is taking hold of many families about them.  From many centers\nthe call reaches us for the organization of Congregational churches,\nchurches which shall stand for morality, equal membership rights and a\nmore rational type of piety. At the same time there is an uprising in\nvarious churches against the centralized forms of church government, which\nthey feel to be oppressive. They refuse longer to be bound to systems\nwhich, as they believe, invade individual Christian rights. From these and\nother causes appeals are coming to us from different quarters for the\nrecognition of churches which have become independent. A number of these\nchurches have already been received by council into Congregational\nassociations, and the indications are that this number will be largely\nincreased during the year to come.\n\n               [Illustration: THE SPRINGS CABIN AT LOWELL.]\n\n                       THE SPRINGS CABIN AT LOWELL.\n\n\n                 [Illustration: THE LOWELL CHURCH RUINS.]\n\n                         THE LOWELL CHURCH RUINS.\n\n\nOf these popular movements toward the Congregational way, that at Lowell\nis a typical illustration.  Some of the colored people near this little\nhamlet desired to build for themselves a church. With infinite pains and\nself-denial and labor they gathered the material for a small, wooden\nbuilding and put up the frame with their own hands. Being refused the\nofficial encouragement they felt they had a right to expect from their own\ndenomination, they began to consider the whole question of church\nrelations and polity, and made up their minds to become a free church.\nThey held their services in the cabin depicted in the accompanying\nillustration, and sought to push forward the completion of their little\nand rude church building. A furious storm blew the frame down. With sore\nhearts they piled up the lumber neatly around the foundation frame and\nfelt that they must give up their cherished hope of having a church\nedifice. Having learned of the Congregational way, which superimposes no\ncentralized church government over the people and seeks to aid the poor\nrather than to oppress them, they organized themselves into a\nCongregational church, and were recognized in our fellowship by a council.\nAfterward they were visited by a representative of the Association, whose\nform is seen in the foreground of the picture of their ruined church. A\ncheering conference was held with them. In this conversation a single fact\ncame out which shows something of the labor and self-denial in the\nmovement. It was found that the young minister of this, and a similar body\nof colored people several miles away, although he was afflicted with an\nulcerated ankle, which might well have laid him up in his house, had\nrepeatedly walked seventeen miles over the heavy roads in order to keep\nfaithfully his preaching appointments. The people were willing to do their\nvery utmost. It is hoped, with the aid of our Church Building Society,\nthat they will now be able to put up their little church building and\nprosper in their Christian endeavor of having a free Congregational church\nfor their religious home.\n\n                 [Illustration: REV. A. W. CURTIS, D.D.]\n\n                         REV. A. W. CURTIS, D.D.\n\n\nIn Raleigh, the State capital, the colored people form a little over half\nof the population. Our church work here for a number of years has been in\nthe charge of Rev. A. W. Curtis, D.D., who is most highly esteemed\neverywhere. The convenient, comfortable, and tasteful church building was\nerected in 1891. It has a seating capacity of 250. In the political\ntransformations of the State the race question keeps its prominence. It\nwas a significant fact that the Legislature voted a few weeks ago to\nadjourn in respect to the memory of Fred. Douglass. About the same time\nthe legislature also voted that the national standard should be raised on\nthe State house; and, for the first time since the reconstruction days,\nour country's flag streamed above the old granite capitol of North\nCarolina.\n\n                [Illustration: STATE CAPITOL AT RALEIGH.]\n\n                        STATE CAPITOL AT RALEIGH.\n\n\n\n\nA SUNDAY AT TALLADEGA, ALA.\n\n\nBY PRESIDENT DEFOREST.\n\nOur different religious services begin early in the day. At 7.30, soon\nafter breakfast and prayers in the dining hall, the Young Men's Christian\nAssociation holds its meeting for an hour. The Sunday-school, with a large\nattendance and many classes occupying different school rooms, convenes at\n9.15, with the regular church service following at 10.30. We are never\nthrough with this without feeling keenly the need of a larger, better and\nbetter ventilated house of worship. A new chapel is longed for each\nSabbath, often through the week, and especially at commencement season\nwhen our varied anniversary exercises are all crowded into one small\ninadequate and inappropriate room.\n\nSoon after dinner more than a score of students, mainly young men, with a\nfew of our teachers, go out to seven different mission Sunday-schools, two\nof which are in our own tasteful chapels, others in country churches, and\none in a private house, where they meet about 300 different pupils of all\nsorts, garbs and ages, but for the most part attentive listeners eager for\ninstruction, as well as for the papers which Northern benevolence, through\nsundry boxes and barrels, enable us to supply. This mission Sunday-school\nwork began with the first year of the College Church and has accomplished\na large and growing good. Through these schools the college multiplies\nitself, carrying the Gospel, with opposition to tobacco and intoxicants,\ninto needy places. These mission schools are a cordon of outposts\nsurrounding the citadel. The most remote is five and a half miles away,\nand incidentally a good share of pluck is developed by those who, through\ncold or heat, mud or dust, regularly make their Sabbath day rounds.\n\nComparatively few are regularly in these mission enterprises. For those at\nhome there is the quiet hour and prayer meetings, a gathering in the\ninterests of purity or temperance--enough to employ the time to the early\nsupper hour. After that comes the last public meeting of the day in the\nchapel, which for some time has been conducted by our Society of Christian\nEndeavor. The day is a full one, with large opportunities for personal\ngrowth and usefulness.\n\nFrom a recent visit, I am able to write more fully of one of the meetings\nof the Young Men's Christian Association. The hour was early, but the room\nwas well filled. The leader took but little time and used it well. Prayers\nfollowed, with volunteer singing; other prayers, brief and earnest, and\nthen a quartet sang a touching evangelical hymn. Seldom have I spoken to\nmore attentive hearers than were furnished by these fifty young men. It\nwas an inspiration to look into their faces and to feel that in a few\nyears they would all be scattered, if they live, to the four quarters of\nthe world and wielding a large influence among men. I could but hope that\nthat influence would be for good. Many earnest prayers followed, and when\nan opportunity was offered three young men requested prayers. They were\ntenderly remembered. It seemed to me that some of these petitions had in\nthem the fervor of Pentecost. Two young men were received into the\nAssociation, and when the hour was through I felt that we had been sitting\ntogether in heavenly places in Christ.\n\nAnd now as a Roman could not end his speech without adding _Delenda est\nCarthago_, so I cannot close without saying that if this part of the world\nneeds Christian schools, if Christian education is the hope of these\nregions, then Talladega College ought to be enlarged and endowed. Some who\nare giving themselves to this most blessed reconstruction wish that they\nhad money to add also. May those who cannot come themselves send on\nsupplies.\n\n\n\n\nSTORRS SCHOOL, ATLANTA, GA.\n\n\nBY MISS ELLA E. ROPER.\n\nWe are so sure of your sympathy in our spiritual prosperity that I write\nyou informally in relation to it.\n\nSunday, February 10, was a peculiarly happy one for us. In the morning we\nhad studied together how the Saviour had set the little child in the\nmidst. At the communion service following there was a large group of\ncandidates for admission to the church, and then again were the children\n\"in the midst.\" Eight were our present pupils; another, a last year's\ngraduate. Still another was a young man who came to renew his allegiance\nto the church of Christ. We wished that all interested in their welfare in\nyears gone by could look upon them. Several of the younger people admitted\nbecame interested under the preaching of Mr. Moore over a year ago, and\nhave stood to their post manfully ever since. The present severe weather\ncauses much acute distress. A recent case had its humorous, as well as\npathetic side. In the bitter zero weather of Friday's blizzard a\nmicroscopic male beggar unfolded a doleful tale, as he basked in the\nwarmth of the kitchen fire. He gave very unsatisfactory directions to his\nhome, and we were unsuccessful that night in locating it. Early next\nmorning he appeared again, and we made immediate preparations for running\nhim to cover. As we started into the street he said hesitatingly,\n\"Mother's better now.\" \"That's good; run along.\" Presently, \"She's up and\ndressed now.\" \"Run along,\" we admonished, and took care to keep our eyes\nupon him lest he vanish, since he was evidently trying to patch up a peace\nwith his conscience. He presently darted within a cabin, and there we\nfound a state of things to which he had hardly done justice,\nnotwithstanding his remorse that his mother wasn't exactly as he had\nrepresented her. A single stick of wood was wasting in the fireplace. Four\nchildren, smaller than the mite, were as near it as possible without being\non it, eagerly scraping a tin dish with a spoon. A fifth, who had recently\nmade the acquaintance of this world and its woes, was vigorously\nproclaiming his unfavorable opinion of it from the bed. \"I cannot take him\nup in this cold,\" the mother explained.\n\nI left them to see what could be done. On my return the last spark of fire\nhad died upon the hearth. It was zero without and within. Our family of\nteachers had made up a sum sufficient for the present needs, however, and\nthe family were soon made comfortable. At our last visit that day the room\nwas warm, the baby was up, and evidently had changed his mind. As we were\nendeavoring to sort out and fit some garments, the mite (ten years of age,\nbut apparently about eight) came to me, and, looking up with great\nsolemnity, said, \"If you want any work done, I'll do it for you for\nnothin'.\" So you see there will be a man of business in that house as long\nas the mite lives.\n\nWe have our usual experience of pleasant classes in Storrs this year. The\nsame families continuing with us, year after year, seem like our own. Our\nJunior Christian Endeavor Society, already quite large, received nine new\nmembers at the last business meeting, and is reaching out for more. Our\nindustrial department is slowly working in the direction of a modest\nexhibit at the coming Atlanta Exposition, and doing considerable toward\nclothing the needy with plain garments.\n\n\n\n\nANDERSONVILLE, GA.\n\n\nMISS M. E. WILCOX.\n\nThank you ever so much for the Hand Fund, I feel quite rich with it. These\nchildren are willing to work and the parents are glad to have them do so.\nThey know very little about doing things properly, and the teaching which\nthey have in industrial work may do them as much good as their books, but\nif you count that, then I am teaching from eight o'clock to five.\n\nYou may wish to ask if we feel isolated and lonely. No, we are too busy\nfor that. The scholars begin to come on the grounds before we are through\nbreakfast, and we don't have time to wish for other company. You ask how I\nfind things. One can't find out everything in two months, but as far as I\ncan judge it is as needy a field as we have heard about.\n\nOf course the best work cannot be done in school until we can have another\nroom, but now scholars come four or five miles, cross creeks on logs, or,\nwhen the water is too high, their folks bring them across the water and\nthey walk the rest of the way.\n\nSo far, the parents find no fault with the governing at school. One girl\nhad troubled me by laughing and playing, and I told her at noon if she\ncouldn't study more she would better stay at home and work. Somebody told\nher mother what was said, and the stepfather came down and begged me to\nkeep her, said that they couldn't read and write and needed to have her\nknow how, that they would attend \"stricter\" to her, that she would behave\nbetter when they were through with her, etc. I consented to keep her and\nshe confided to Jennie, when she came to school, that she had had four\nswitches \"wore out\" on her that morning.\n\nEverybody is very poor, of all races, and what is more discouraging they\ndon't know how to improve their condition. This year the Christmas freeze\nspoiled almost all their vegetables, and they lost all their melon crop\nlast year, and the cold two or three weeks ago froze what garden things\nwere started; what they are to live on till crops grow is not visible. The\nchildren evidently think our washbasins and soap and towels a great\nluxury, for they scrub and rub at every opportunity.\n\nWe are putting out flowers and trees and planting grass in the yard to\nmake it more comfortable looking, the grass, partly to prevent the water\nfrom washing off so much. The church lot is higher than that of the house\nand in a heavy rain the water pours down on our lot, but I think we can\nstop it in part at least. Our \"home\" is an \"unmixed\" blessing. I don't\nknow how we could get on here without a pleasant resting place, and the\npeople watch everything we do and everything we have.\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE INDIANS.\n\n\n\n\nITEMS FROM INDIAN MISSIONS.\n\n\nSECRETARY C. J. RYDER.\n\nAt Santee Industrial School and Mission in Nebraska they have suffered a\nsad bereavement. The place left vacant by Mrs. Frederick B. Riggs, who has\njust been taken away from the loving circle of missionary workers at this\nstation cannot be filled. Her absence will be much more than the loss of\none faithful missionary. She was the life, the light and the inspiration\nof any circle in which she moved. The brief tribute in another column to\nher memory calls attention to her wide usefulness. When we met in the\nMission Council last year at Oahe, S. D., Mrs. Riggs's bright and\nconfident faith lifted up all our hearts bowed down as they were by\ndiscouragement in view of the vast work to be accomplished and the\nretrenchment in funds. All who were present at this Council will remember\nhow sure she was that light would come after the darkness, and that joy\nwould come in the morning. There has come to her the richest, fullest\nlight and joy of the better country. When we meet at the Council this year\nwe shall be the richer for her strong faith and the abiding presence of\nher self-sacrificing love.\n\nSantee Industrial School, through the rigid economy of Dr. Riggs and his\nfaithful assistants, has enrolled more pupils than the appropriation\npermitted. Notwithstanding this, hundreds have been turned from the school\nbecause the funds were not sufficient to furnish them Christian\ninstruction.\n\nFrom Oahe comes the report that Rev. T. L. Riggs is gradually recovering\nthe use of his eyes. Rev. James F. Cross, of Rosebud, has been assisting\nBrother Riggs during his sore affliction.\n\nWe are sometimes asked whether the hospital at Fort Yates is now in\noperation. It is not. Last year, by special solicitation, additional funds\nwere gathered sufficient to conduct the hospital for one year. This was\ndone. A hospital plant is always expensive, as it involves the salary of a\ntrained physician and an assistant, together with medicines and other\nsupplies. This year the funds have not come in outside of current receipts\nsufficient to provide for the expenses of the hospital, and it is,\ntherefore, closed. This is to the serious loss of the religious work. Word\ncomes from the prairie that the Indians, women and children especially,\nmourn sorely the loss of this hospital and the considerate and skillful\ncare of our faithful physician.\n\nMiss M. P. Lord, whose address at the annual meeting in Lowell attracted\nso general interest, remained in the East for some weeks presenting the\nIndian work to the churches, Christian Endeavor Societies and women's\nmissionary societies. Her work was confined to New England. She remained\nas long as it seemed wise for her to be absent from the pressing duties of\nher mission, to which she has now returned.\n\nThe following letter was recently received from her.\n\n\n                                         \"IN THE LAND OF THE DAKOTAS,\n                               LITTLE EAGLE'S VILLAGE, March 25, 1895.\n\n    \"During the past week I have been twice down the river to Flying\n    By's Village to attend their mid-week prayer meeting and Sunday\n    morning service, and also to the Agency. My people seem to be\n    active and earnest. Some of them are thinking they had better\n    enlarge the little building they put up last year. A number of the\n    people there are learning, teaching each other to read; and they\n    are asking for a women's missionary society to be formed there.\n    Catch-the-Enemy, who is active in the young men's society, said to\n    me the other day that there were fifteen members at Flying By's\n    Village. Their quarterly dues are ten cents, but the others have\n    nothing with which to pay, and so he paid them all.\n\n    \"David, dear, good, gentle David, was here to-day from Thunder\n    Hawk's. I judge that he is getting on well there. As a teacher, I\n    think he can not but be a success, he is so gentle, patient and\n    good, and bright, too. A week ago we had a pleasant little visit\n    from Mr. Reed over Sunday.\"\n\n\nFrom this letter it will be seen that large opportunities are opening at\nthis Indian mission, and most hopeful results are already being gathered.\nThe Christian Indians are more and more realizing their own responsibility\nfor carrying on Christian work, and are meeting it bravely. They are also\nresponding to appeals for gifts to missionary work outside of their own\ntribes with self-sacrificing devotion. The collection of the Pilgrim\nChurch at Santee, mentioned in the April magazine, increased to $241. This\nwas to meet the debt on the treasury of the American Missionary\nAssociation.\n\nMiss Collins, so well known to our readers, is now in the East in behalf\nof these needy Indian missions. Before leaving the prairies, she visited\nOahe and Santee, and various missions aside from her own, that she might\nhave the most recent information of the whole field. The object of her\ncoming is to give the information, which she possesses so thoroughly, to\nthe people and so stir them up adequately to support this field of Indian\nmissions which is suffering so painfully for the lack of funds. There can\nnot be any further retrenchment of the Indian work if it lives at all. It\nhas been cut down two years in succession, and greatly suffered. Further\ncurtailment would mean crucifixion.\n\n\n\n\nMRS. ADELAIDE RIDEOUT RIGGS.\n\n\nA beautiful life has gone out from our work, taking from it one who was\nloved and admired by the Indian people as well as by her fellow-workers.\n\nMrs. Riggs was born in 1867 in Dorset, Vt., graduating in 1887 from the\nWestern Reserve Seminary, and after spending two years in Bradford\nAcademy, Mass., she came as a teacher to the Santee School, Nebraska,\nwhere she made herself exceedingly useful and was afterward employed by\nDr. Riggs as his secretary. In 1893 she was married to Mr. Frederick B.\nRiggs and took a trip with him upon the Rosebud and Pine Ridge\nReservations, camping out and sharing the hardship of such travel. Failing\nhealth led to the employment of the best medical advice, and in November,\n1894, she went to New Mexico to escape the rigors of the climate of\nNebraska, where it seemed impossible that she could live through the\nwinter. But in spite of all that could be done, Mrs. Riggs passed away\nMarch 12, 1895. She was admirably fitted for her work and full of\nenthusiasm for it. It seemed as if her usefulness had just begun, but God\nhad prepared her for another and more glorious field.\n\nThe funeral service of Mrs. Riggs was held on Sunday afternoon, March 24,\nat Santee, Neb. The simple exercises were conducted by Rev. Mr. Dwin,\nSuperintendent of the Government School, and Pastor Ehnamani. The latter\nis the venerable Indian pastor of the church at Santee. He referred\nfeelingly to Mrs. Riggs giving her life to the work among his people and\nof her desire to be buried among those whom she loved.\n\n\n\n\nAN INDIAN HELPING NEEDY WHITES.\n\n\nThe Indians have shown themselves full of sympathy, giving what they could\nspare of their annual issue of flannel, cloth, etc., from the Government.\nOne of the native pastors, Mr. Francis Frazier, told that on his way here\nfrom his home at the Rosebud Reservation, he found at the homes of all the\nwhite families great need of food. He started with a good supply for the\ntrip, but he left some at each white man's home that he passed on the way.\nWe have no conception of this suffering. The weather has been very mild\ncompared with last year, which has been a great blessing to these poor\npeople. What trust in God it needs to live through such extremities!\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE CHINESE.\n\n\n\n\nSTREET PREACHING IN CHINATOWN.\n\n\nREV. W. C. POND, D.D.\n\nOur brother Loo Quong writes from Fresno as follows: \"I cannot help\ntelling you about the interest we have taken in the street preaching here\nin Chinatown, and the interest of the Chinese who have attended our\nmeetings from Sunday to Sunday. It was a beautiful sight to see the great\nbig crowd of interesting faces, to hear us sing the songs of praise to the\nAlmighty God, and to hear the preaching of the sweet gospel of our Lord\nJesus Christ, who loves the Chinese as well as all mankind.\n\n\"I have taken more interest in my preaching on the streets in this city\nthan anywhere else, because I could get more help to sing with us.\nBesides, our people here seem to be more interested in such meetings than\nanywhere else. We begin at 12.30 p.m. After a few hymns were sung a loud\nprayer was offered to our God and Master by Wong Gow. Then I mounted the\nchair and preached for half an hour. Then a hymn was sung, and Brother\nWong Gow took the chair and preached another twenty minutes to the big and\ninterested crowd. After this another hymn was sung. A young American boy\nwho was a true Christian happened to pass along there, and made a stop to\nsee what was going on. After he found out he too mounted the chair and\ngave the crowd a few cheerful words. Then we closed with the song: 'Are\nyou Washed in the Blood,' (in Chinese I suppose: W. C. P.) following this\nwith the Lord's Prayer in Chinese. During all this time there was not one\never did move away from the big crowd, but rather new-comers swelled it\nlarger and larger. There were a great many Americans in it too, and they\nall seemed to be interested. I am sure that a great many of the Chinese\nhearts, at least, were touched by the preaching of the Gospel to-day. May\nthe Lord, help them to understand it more clearly!\n\n               [Illustration: STREET PREACHING IN FRESNO.]\n\n                       STREET PREACHING IN FRESNO.\n\n\n\"I believe that the street preaching has become the most important part of\nthe missionary work in this State. For nowadays, with the Chinese, things\nare not like those of ten or fifteen years ago, when we could get a great\nmany Chinese into our schools to be taught English, and so the Gospel\ntimes are getting harder for them in this country every day, and they are\ngrowing old, and therefore they have more cares in their hearts and so\nlose interest in study. I have tried this many times. When I succeeded to\nget them in for one, two, three, or four nights, they are not interested\nand do not come again, and when urged to do so, they offer some kind of\nexcuse. So we must take the street meetings as the main point to fight\nsins, to sow the seeds, and use the schools as our reapers.\"\n\nAnd so Loo Quong goes on to urge me to stir up the street preaching at all\nour missions, which thing I was and have been forward to do, even without\nurging. I believe he is right in saying that while we cannot dispense with\nthe schools--indeed the whole work without these would be unorganized and\nfruitless--yet for \"sowing the seed,\" for reaching those who are far off,\nwe must depend on street preaching. The English primer has largely lost\nits power as a bait for the gospel hook. We must do our fishing for men on\nother lines.\n\nAccordingly I am pressing our Chinese Christians into this work, and am\nproviding them with cards printed in Chinese, on which they can sign their\nnames to the simple statement: \"I like the Jesus' doctrine. I would be\nglad to study it. The preacher may call to see me at ----.\"\n\nThe reverse side of the card contains the location of the mission house,\nnames of teacher, helper, etc. The intent is that no one willing to listen\nto the word of life as uttered in private and personal conversation,\nshould fail to be found and to be urged to take his stand with the\nfollowers of Christ. We wish to follow up the public service with\neffective private and personal preaching.\n\nTwo of our Chinese brethren at Fresno are to be baptized and welcomed to\nthe Church to-morrow.\n\nLet no one imagine that street-preaching is a new feature of our work. We\nhave practiced it on all our fields, and ever since we had Chinese\nChristians capable of doing it. But it has not been attended to as\nregularly and with as careful preparation: it has not been made a constant\nand prominent element of our missionary service, as with God's help I mean\nto make it hereafter.\n\nA friend writing from Santa Barbara says of Yong Kay: \"For some time God\nhas been laying the burden of Chinatown upon his mind and heart. He said\nthat he ought to be like Paul--go to those who have not heard the Gospel.\nSo, with some singers from the church, he has gone into their street on\nSunday afternoons and held open-air services. A crowd has gathered,\nattracted by the singing, and Yong Kay has preached to them in Chinese.\nThose who were interested the first time came again yesterday, and one\ncould tell by their earnest faces that they were _taking in_ the thought\nof the speaker. It was a touching scene; and not less touching, perhaps,\nthat little group at the mission house about to start for the preaching\nplace, as Yong Kay gathered us about him and said: 'We will have a short\nprayer.' He went in the strength of the Lord, and he will doubtless come\nagain, bringing his sheaves with him.\"\n\nMrs. Davis, our teacher at San Bernardino, writes likewise: \"We had a song\nand preaching service in Chinatown last Sabbath, and the effort was most\ngratifying. About forty Chinese gathered and listened with the utmost\ninterest, as you could see by their very earnest faces and close\nattention. We plan to have these services regularly if Gin Foo King can be\ncontinued with us. The longer I work with these people the more my heart\ngoes out to them in their sad condition, out of Christ.\"\n\n\n\n\n\nBUREAU OF WOMAN'S WORK.\n\n\nMISS D. E. EMERSON, SECRETARY.\n\n\n\n\nCHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR IN THE BLACK BELT.\n\n\nBY C. E. L.\n\nOne hundred and twenty-five happy black faces with eager eyes and\nglistening white teeth; one hundred and twenty-five little boys and girls\nmarching into the schoolroom to go forth as Junior Endeavorers; thus began\nour society this morning.\n\nHow anxious we were to have the very best one of our number for president,\nand to choose wisely the lookout committee and the prayer-meeting\ncommittee! For a whole week we had been thinking just whom we would\nchoose. The neatest and most careful writer was chosen secretary, the best\nsingers were placed on the music committee, those whose mothers have\nbeautiful gardens were placed on the flower committee; five of the very\ncheeriest of all these cheerful boys and girls make up the sunshine\ncommittee. Perhaps these children do not yet understand clearly the duties\nof the various officers, but the organization means something to them, and\nthey are very careful not to do things unworthy of Christian Endeavorers.\n\nThis society is the outgrowth of the Wednesday morning prayer-meeting. The\nmeeting this morning was unusually interesting. Our topic, \"For what are\nyou thankful?\" we took from the GOLDEN RULE. We did find many things to be\nthankful for, so many, in fact, that the privileges we do not enjoy seemed\nto sink into insignificance.\n\nDo you think you would be thankful if you had to share a home no larger\nthan a small bedroom with eleven or twelve brothers and sisters? Could you\ngive thanks if you had only one suit of clothes and that very ragged; or\nif you had to walk four or five miles to school and carry your pockets\nfull of sweet potatoes to roast in the ashes for your dinner?\n\nYet we can thank God for health and sunshine and flowers and school and\nJunior Endeavor meetings. Indeed, I cannot remember all the things we did\nthank Him for this morning. One thing I do remember; we thanked Him for\nour voices and the many beautiful hymns we have learned to sing. Oh, how\nwe do sing! It seems as if we should almost raise the roof sometimes with\nour old favorites, \"He Arose\" and \"The Old Ship of Zion.\"\n\nWe have had some very cold mornings. One day Sandy said, \"Please, ma'am,\ndo they send shoes? 'cause I has far to come. I needs ebery ting, but I\nwants dem shoes.\" Poor little boy, he does indeed need \"ebery ting.\" And\nthere are many others that would fare very badly were it not for the\nbarrels. There are more than four hundred boys and girls in this school. I\nthink the heartfelt thanks of these people will call down showers of\nblessings on the friends that have provided this school and have been so\nprompt in supplying our needs.\n\n\n\n\nWOMAN'S STATE ORGANIZATIONS.\n\n\n               MAINE.\n       WOMAN'S AID TO A.
