By D. A. Ball
“For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice . . . they are the eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth.” An instance in our work here in Gloversville has just come to our notice, illustrating the necessity of our being constantly on the alert to improve every opportunity to sow the seeds of truth among the people. One Thursday evening, having no appointment for that night, our little company of workers decided to attend a prayer meeting in the Presbyterian chapel, in one of the suburbs of this city. The minister was away, and I was asked to conduct the services of the evening. After the meeting, I became acquainted with one of their prominent members who is a foreman in one of the large factories here. I asked him when he would be at liberty, so that I might show him an excellent book I had. He told me to call at the shop and see him at any time after the first of June, and he would be pleased to examine the book. Accordingly I called on him one morning later, sold him a copy of “Christ’s Object Lessons,” and through his influence succeeded in taking two orders from his men. This gentleman, who is a refined, Christian man, has become interested in our work, and has promised to attend the tent meetings, if they are within his reach this summer. I have since had the privilege of speaking by request to the people at the chapel, and have sold three copies of “Christ’s Object Lessons” to members of the church in that vicinity. My daughter formed the acquaintance of one of the ladies under the employ of the foreman already mentioned, and took her order for a book. Thus we are encouraged to go on in the work, striving to remember the words of Christ through Solomon: “In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thy hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.” —D. A. Ball, in New York Indicator. — The Great Northern Railway is crippled by a strike of 2,000 employees from among all departments of its business. — The remains of Lord Pauncefote, the late British ambassador, will be conveyed to England by the United States cruiser “Brooklyn.” — The Martinique volcano, Mont Pelée, continues to display activity at intervals, an eruption of ashes and mud being noted on July 1. — A dispatch to the London Chronicle from Rome says it is probable that Mgr. Merry del Val will be appointed by the pope as “apostolic delegate” at Washington. — Statistics of fires in this country for the last twenty-six years show that December is the month of the heaviest losses, with July a close second. The loss for 1901 was $174,160,000, an increase of $13,000,000 over the record for 1900. — One of the most imposing Roman Catholic edifices in the world is Westminster Cathedral, near Westminster Abbey, in London, which has just been completed after several years’ work, and was opened by the English cardinal Vaughan, June 29. — Some American men of wealth, prominent among whom is Marshall Field, of Chicago, are reported to have set on foot an enterprise to colonize New England with mechanics and farmers from among the immigrants coming to this country from Europe. — Affairs in the new Cuban republic are reported to be in a serious condition, and going from bad to worse. Little is being done toward agricultural development, and President Palma is engaged in a wholesale reduction of expenses, abolishing offices and decreasing salaries. — King Edward of England has steadily improved since undergoing the surgical operation which was found to be necessary a short time ago, and English people everywhere, as well as many sympathizers among other nations, are much rejoiced at the favorable outlook. There is talk of a coronation with modified ceremonies in October. Russia is the only government which has been backward in expressions of sympathy. — More than 490,000 immigrants arrived at New York during the last fiscal year, which is an increase of 150,000 over 1901. — The anthracite coal strike still continues, but there are signs of a disposition to return to work among the body of the miners. It is believed that the contest will be ended by July 12. — Beginning July 1 a permanent census bureau will be maintained in Washington, with a force of 750 clerks, this being considered necessary for a more expeditious and economical compilation of the census figures which are taken in this country every ten years. — The controversy between the freight handlers and railways in Chicago, which was expected to result in a strike July 1, has been referred by the teamsters to the executive board of the Chicago Federation of Labor, the men saying that they will abide by the decision of that body. It is believed that the anticipated trouble will be avoided. — There appears to be a growing sentiment among educational men against coeducation in the colleges. President Wheeler, of California University, says he is opposed to it because it leads to a great preponderance of girls in these educational institutions, as he observed during a recent trip through Colorado, Nevada, and Southern California. — The senate chamber at Washington was the scene on Monday of a personal encounter between two well-known senators, one taking offense at the other because the latter had said that the former had used unwarranted language. It was not long ago that the two senators from South Carolina sought to do personal violence to each other in the same place. — The interoceanic canal bill, fixing upon the Panama route as the one best suited for the waterway joining the Atlantic and the Pacific, has been passed by Congress and signed by the president. A portion of this canal is already constructed, and the French company owning it offers it to the United States for $40,000,000. It remains to be determined whether the French company can convey a good title to all of its property, and whether President Roosevelt can obtain by treaty with Colombia control of the necessary territory on the isthmus for the completion of the canal. — The following passage from a speech made by Emperor William at the city hall in Aix-la-Chapelle, June 19, has attracted considerable attention throughout Germany, the Catholic press giving it much favorable comment: “I look to all, priests and laymen, to help me uphold religion among the people, in order that the German name may preserve its health and strength. This applies equally to the two creeds, Catholic and Protestant. It is with pride and joy that I am able to tell you that the pope said to my special ambassador who went to Rome on the occasion of the holy father’s jubilee, that he had always held a high opinion of the piety of the Germans, and especially of that of the German army. The pope asked my ambassador to tell his sovereign that the country in Europe where control, order, and discipline still prevailed, with respect for authority and regard for the church, and where the church could live, was the German empire, and for that the papal see was indebted to the German emperor.” — The opposing political parties in Hayti have substituted arms for political arguments, and have begun fighting near Port au Prince. — A treaty providing for the continuation of the triple alliance between Germany, Austria, and Italy, has been signed at Berlin. — The price of corn now exceeds that of wheat, and predictions are made that the former cereal will soon be quoted at one dollar a bushel. — Speeches advocating the annexation of Cuba are beginning to be heard in Congress, the first having been made June 30, by Senator Elkins. — The supreme court of Wisconsin has given a decision defining the rights of employment, holding that to employ or to be employed is a primary individual right with which no legislature can properly interfere. Hence no employer can be rightfully punished for refusing to employ a union workman, nor can a workman be prosecuted for quitting work in obedience to the command of his union. — The continued rains have done immense damage to growing crops in the Middle Western States, particularly in Illinois and along the Mississippi River, many districts being completely inundated. Four persons were killed in Posey County, Ind., by a cyclone which visited that region, June 28. On the 27th destructive storms raged along the lower Texas coast and in the northeastern corner of the State, about a score of lives being reported lost. While an abnormal rainfall continues in North America, Australia is suffering from an unprecedented drought. — Stirred up, doubtless by clergymen in this country who desire to see the government fully committed to an indorsement of Sunday as the Christian sabbath, Secretary-of-the-Treasury Shaw recently communicated with the president of the St. Louis exposition company regarding the provisions made by the company for fulfilling the agreement to keep the exposition closed on Sundays, which was made by Congress conditional to the gift of $5,000,000 from the government treasury. Secretary Shaw wrote that he would not favor paying any further vouchers presented by the company until the Sunday-closing contract was executed and placed on file in the Treasury Department, and forwarded to the president the form of a contract which would be acceptable, to be filled out and signed by each member of the exposition company. In reply President Francis of the company said the matter would receive prompt attention, and that meanwhile, as evidence of the intention of the company to keep their agreement in the matter, he would invite the attention of the secretary of the treasury to an explicit declaration contained in the rules and regulations adopted by the company last November, that “the exposition will be closed on Sundays.” To this Secretary Shaw replied that in the opinion of the Treasury Department this declaration did “not fully comply” with the act of Congress providing for Sunday closing, and it was “therefore requested that the exposition company, at its earliest convenience, comply with the requirements set forth” in his former letter. The officials of the exposition took action accordingly.22 — The color line was drawn at the recent International Sunday-school convention at Denver, Colo., and young people of the colored race have decided to form a national society modeled after the Society of Christian Endeavor. — Elder Hiram Munger, of Chicopee Falls, Mass., who took part in the proclamation of the advent message in 1844, and has been prominent as a First-day Adventist preacher since that time, died at his home, June 8, at the age of ninety-five years. — A Massachusetts woman who is prominent in women’s clubs in that State, affirms that she has often been greatly shocked at seeing and hearing of the common use of intoxicants by Boston society women, and, on the part of the younger women, the frequent indulgence in profanity. — It is estimated that Lloyds and other English insurance companies lost $5,000,000 by the postponement of King Edward’s coronation, a vast number of tradesmen and shopkeepers having insured heavily against loss from the death of the king or any accident that might postpone the ceremonies. — Revelations implicating the mayor and a large number of the public officials of Minneapolis, Minn., in one of the greatest scandals of corruption in office ever brought to light in this country, have been made by a detective sharing in the guilt, who was arrested after attempting to escape out of the State. There is no reason to suppose that Minneapolis is a special exception in the list of large cities in this respect. — A congress of all religions has been planned by Bishop Samuel Fallows to be held in connection with the Olympian games to take place at Chicago in 1904. “It is held,” the report says, “that the temperance and self-denial exacted of candidates for modern sports of all kinds is closely allied to the principles of self-control which are taught as part of every creed in civilized lands, and that athletics and religion work together toward forming a race of perfect human beings.” List of Missionary Acre Pledges

By S. H. Lane
THERE are many in all parts of the country taking a deep interest in the Missionary Acre Fund. Many parents are educating their children to farm and garden for the Lord. When this is done, the children not only receive a practical education in that all-essential art of “how to make a living,”—for the want of such knowledge the world is cursed with privation and want,—but they also have their minds drawn heavenward by their endeavor to aid the cause of the Lord with the means secured by their labor, instead of spending it for their own selfish gratification, or hoarding it up. Thus every act in this good work leads to the development of that noble Christian grace, benevolence, instead of that soul-destroying sin, selfishness. The writer is working in the interest of the Missionary Acre Fund, and received the following from one family: the father, two acres of wheat; the mother, one row of beets; Rhoda, one row of onions and a setting of eggs; Hazel, one row of onions and a setting of eggs; Orpha, one row of onions; Ruth, twenty-five tomato plants; and Mark, tomato plants, the rows being several rods long. Another family: the father, one acre of flax; the mother, eggs for a specified time; Linda, tomato plants; Bernice, five tomato plants; and Hattie, two rows of sweet corn. And still another: the father, one acre of flax; Minnie, $1; Bertha, plant of cabbage; Johnny, product of a bushel of potatoes. Should every Seventh-day Adventist farmer's family follow the noble example of those mentioned above, a great blessing would be bestowed upon all concerned; the children would gain a practical education, which would be beneficial to them during their sojourn in this world, and the cause of God would be advanced by the thousands of dollars which would flow into its treasury. Parents, are you aiding the cause and teaching the children to do the same? or are you giving them dimes and dollars to fritter away in some transient toy, or to engage in some foolish, soul-destroying sport or game of chance? The children will either be saved or lost; which will it be? The safest thing to do is to interest them in the Lord's work. Send all pledges for the Missionary Acre Fund to P. T. Magan, Berrien Springs, Mich., and all money to H. M. Mitchell, Battle Creek, Mich., stating that it is for the Missionary Acre Fund. When the crops are snugly gethered,
An’ the seedin’ time is past,
An’ the hoarhound, brown an’ feathered,
Rattles in the autumn blast;
When the russet leaves a-flyin’
Make a sort o’ dreary moan,
An’ the lonesome woods ’re sighin’
In a dismal monotone;
When the chestnuts are a beck’nin’
Fer Jack Frost, the sassy elf,
Then I like to hold a reck’nin’
’Twixt my Maker an’ myself. We ’ave worked along together
All the fruitful season through;
He has furnished all the weather—
Sent the sunshine, rain, an’ dew;
I have used my brain an’ labor,
He has found the seed an’ land,
Been my kindest, nearest neighbor,
Alluz lent a helpin’ hand. Now that harvest time is ended,
An’ the workin’ days ’re o’er,
Of the crops that we ’ave tended,
Have I got my shear — er more? I’ve divided up the chattels,
Took the oats, an’ corn, an’ wheat,
Kep’ the fodder for my cattle—
Left him stubble, chaff, and cheat;
When it come to the dividin’
Of potatoes an’ such crops,
W’y, I wasn’t long decidin’
That I’d give ’im all the tops;
But with punkins, beans, an’ hay, an’
Truck what grows above the ground,
I jest thought I’d use fair play, an’
So I turned the thing around! So there ain’t no use denyin’
That I’ve got my honest due,
An’ I kind o’ feel like tryin’
It another year or two.
Course I sometimes feel like sayin’
That he’s prodigal o’ rain,—
That’s espesply when I’m hayin’,—
But the sun’ll shine again,
An’ I’ll feel ’most like confessin’
That I’m ruther weak an’ small,
An’ without his help an’ blessin’,
I could hardly farm at all! WANTED.—A good dairy and farm hand, by the year. Good wages to the right person. Address R. W. Talcott, Clarno, S. D. FOR SALE.—A clean stock of groceries, hardware, etc., in a town composed largely of Seventh-day Adventists. Address J. D. De Tar, University Place, Neb. FOR SALE.—Farm of 117 acres, seven room house, cellar, barn, outhouses, three wells, fruit of all kinds. Situated on the Hannibal & St. Joe R. R. five miles east of county seat. Price, $6,000. Might take part in trade for Battle Creek property. Good place to do missionary work. No Adventists. Correspond with Mrs. Eva E. Clark, Anabel, Mo. “I am the resurrection and the life.”—Jesus. FULLER.—Reginald Fuller, little son of Captain and Nellie Fuller, and grandson of R. S. Donnell, died at the home of his grandfather, June 19, 1902, aged 1 year, 5 months, 28 days. He was born Dec. 21, 1900. Words of comfort were spoken by the writer, assisted by Elder M. M. Kenney, from Jer. 31:15. WALL.—Died May 20, 1902, of nervous exhaustion, James Wall, of Knoxville, Iowa, aged 64 years, 1 month, and 20 days. Brother Wall was a charter member of the Knoxville Seventh-day Adventist church, which was organized in 1862, and ever was faithful to his profession. A wife and two children are left to mourn, but not without hope. SANDERS.—Fell asleep at Eau Claire, Wis., June 9, 1902, after six months’ painful suffering from tuberculosis, Elder Wm. Sanders, aged 64 years. He was born in England, and came to this country at the age of seventeen. He fought as a Union soldier in the Civil War. When the third angel’s message reached him, he responded heartily, and engaged to carry the precious message both by word and act. He was a faithful brother in the ministry, and his labors will be greatly missed by the Wisconsin Conference. He leaves a wife and five children, hopeful in the assurance of meeting him in the first resurrection. Funeral services were conducted at Eau Claire by Elder J. B. Scott, and at Moon by the writer, where interment was made in the cemetery on the farm he formerly owned. CAMPBELL.—Fell asleep June 17, 1902, after a lingering illness, Sister Josephine Campbell. She had been a sufferer for many years, and grew in grace and love for her Lord during this experience. She accepted the faith of the third angel’s message about fifteen years ago. Prayers were offered at the house in New Hampshire, but the funeral was held at Gloucester, Mass., where we laid her away, awaiting the Life-giver’s call. SMITH.—Died in Battle Creek, June 19, 1902, Susannah Sisley Smith, wife of Asahel Smith, aged 59 years. She was born in Tunbridge, England. Her brother, the late Elder John Sisley, had come to America and found this truth. His report of it by correspondence led his mother and her children to follow him to this country about 1864. Sister Smith had, from early childhood, a bright Christian experience, and fell asleep trusting in the Lord. Mother Sisley and two sisters are in Australia, and a brother, W. C. Sisley, is in England. Others of the family and relatives were in Battle Creek as our sister was laid away in Oak Hill Cemetery. The Texas Camp Meeting
By W. A. McCutchen
Will be held this year at Handley, July 24 to August 3. Handley is six miles east of Fort Worth on the Texas & Pacific and the Dallas & Fort Worth Electric Line railroads. We tried hard to locate the meeting farther south this year, but suitable grounds and accommodations could not be had within the territory in which we desired to conduct the meeting. Waco, Corsicana, Hillsboro, and Temple were visited,—and Waco was visited twice, so anxious were we for it to be held at this place,—but suitable grounds could not be found in or about the city. The hot weather that prevails at the time of our camp meetings makes it very essential that we have shade, plenty of good, pure water, and roomy grounds, so as not to be too crowded. Our annual camp meeting has become such a large affair that it is no longer easy to find grounds that will serve our purpose in the cities of north and central Texas. But at Handley we have all the essentials combined. We have a twenty-five-acre grove on an elevation, with open fields and prairie on all sides to let in the breeze, and an abundance of pure water from the artesian wells of the power house of the electric line road, piped to the grounds for our use, free of charge. Besides this, the electric company puts in electric lights for the meeting tent, gives us the use of a two hundred-and-fifty-acre pasture adjoining the grounds, with plenty of good water and shade for stock, hauls a car load of tents and fixtures from Dallas to Handley and return, all lumber, furniture, commissary supplies, and whatever needed, and as often as needed, from Ft. Worth—all free of cost. These are some of the reasons, together with the fact that we were unable to find a suitable place farther south, why we decided to hold the camp meeting at Handley; and it is hoped that when the brethren know these facts, they will feel entirely satisfied. The pasture being given to us free, pasturage will be furnished the brethren free of cost. This is something we have never had before. We also have a cheaper rate to the meeting than usual—a fare and one tenth for the round trip. At least the Texas & Pacific has granted us this rate, and has asked other connecting roads of the State to do the same, which we have no doubt will be done. Later instructions about rates will be given. All roads coming into Fort Worth, except the Santa Fé and the H. & T. C., run into the union station, where change can be made without transfer to the T. & P. for Handley. Those coming from the east, northeast, and southeast through Dallas on the M. K. & T., Santa Fé, and Cotton Belt will have to transfer at Dallas to the T. & P. for Handley. The H. & T. C. and T. & N. O. come into the same station at Dallas with the T. & P., where change can be made to the T. & P. for Handley without transfer. Let all preserve these directions, and govern their route accordingly. We expect good help at our meeting to look after all departments of the work. Besides the laborers of the conference, Brother G. G. Rupert, president of the Southwestern Union Conference, Brethren Haffner and Fields, presidents of Oklahoma and Arkansas Conferences, Brother S. H. Lane, of Battle Creek, Mich., and probably other general laborers, will be present. Let all come expecting to receive a blessing and to be a blessing, and it will be “even so.” The seeming objection to having the meeting at a small village, instead of near the city, is overcome by the fact that the electric line road gives us almost a city rate (15 cents for round trip), and thus practically brings us within the city, or rather, brings the people to us. This company owns the entire street-car system of Fort Worth, so this round-trip rate may be secured in any part of the city. Come praying God’s blessing upon the meeting. W. A. McCutchen,
President Texas Conference. Tents for the Texas Camp Meeting
By W. A. McCutchen
ALL persons wishing tents for our annual camp meeting, July 24 to August 3, are requested to send their orders at once to C. N. Woodward, Dallas, Tex., stating size of tent wanted, and whether with or without fly. Prices, 12 x 14, $2.50; with fly, $3. To insure having a tent, send money with order, and it will then be held for you; otherwise it will not be held after noon of the first day of the meeting if needed to supply some one present who has not ordered one. This request to send in orders is made that we may know how many tents to provide. Please do not overlook it if you would be sure of a tent. W. A. McCUTCHEN. Mississippi Camp Meeting
By R. S. Owen
THIS meeting will be held at West Point, August 1–11. A beautiful grove has been secured in a good part of the city. Wide-spreading oaks will give ample shade to the whole encampment. The ground is supplied with an abundance of pure water from an artesian well, and everything is as convenient as could be desired. Brother G. I. Butler, president of the Southern Union Conference, Prof. J. E. Tenney, and others will attend. West Point is an important railroad center for all parts of the State. We hope our brethren and sisters will make a grand rally, and come to enjoy this feast of good things. None can afford to lose the blessings God designs to bestow at these annual gatherings. Begin at once to plan for the meeting. Come, and bring others with you. R. S. OWEN. “The Niagara Falls Route.” | Station |
