MINNESOTA CAMP-MEETING.

This meeting will be held at Calhoun Lake, three miles from the city of Minneapolis, on the grounds occupied last year, and will commence on Wednesday evening, June 16. The location is a pleasant one, and easy of access from all parts of the Conference, and we earnestly request the brethren of all the churches, and the scattered brethren throughout the Conference, to make a vigorous effort to come to the meeting. We hope that our Scandinavian brethren will make a special effort to attend, as there will be able brethren present to give them instruction in their own languages. Brethren, come in season to be all ready to commence work at the first meeting, and come prepared to stay till the meeting closes. Come with a full determination to seek the Lord earnestly, and devote the time of the meeting to the work of drawing near to the Lord, that he may draw near to us, and grant us a refreshing.
Hay and grain will be furnished on the ground at as reasonable rates as they can be afforded, and the stand will be stocked with necessary provisions.
Arrangements have been completed with the following-named railroads, to carry those coming to the camp-meeting at reduced fare; viz., West Wisconsin, St. P., M. & M., St. P. & S. C., & S. C. & St. P., M. & L.; and negotiations are pending with the C. M. & St. P. Co., which, it is hoped, will result in securing the same over its lines. If successful, notice will be given next week. For particulars, see notice elsewhere in this week’s paper. We hope for competent help from the General Conference.
