CONCERNING the work of the Mission in Detroit, Mich., Brother A. J. Harris reports as follows to Field Echoes: “Anxious souls are inquiring every day for light, and the Lord is surely going before and preparing the way for His truth. People are sent to us for help both spiritually and physically. Much time is spent in looking after the needy,—sometimes nearly the whole day, and even late in the evening, after the meetings at Star of Hope Mission; but a precious blessing comes with it all. A few days ago the secretary of the Bible Society expressed himself as being in harmony with our work, and gave us an order for a supply of Testaments for distribution, and said when we wanted more to let him know.”

17 “Now on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where wilt Thou that we make ready for Thee to eat the Passover? And He said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I keep the Passover at thy house with My disciples. 19 And the disciples did as Jesus appointed them; and they made ready the Passover. Now when even was come, He was sitting at meat with the twelve disciples; and as they were eating, He said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray Me. And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began to say unto Him every one, Is it I, Lord? And He answered and said, He that dipped his hand with Me in the dish, the same shall betray Me.
24 The Son of man goeth, even as it is written of Him; but woe unto that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! Good were it for that man if he had not been born. And Judas, which betrayed Him, answered and said, Is it I, Rabbi? He saith unto him, Thou hast said. And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it; and He gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is My body. 27 And He took a cup, and gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; for this is My blood of the covenant, which is shed for many unto remission of sins. 29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom. 30 “And when they had sung a hymn, they went out unto the Mount of Olives. 31 “Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended in Me this night; for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock
32 shall be scattered abroad. But after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee. But Peter answered and said unto Him, If all shall be offended in Thee, I will never be offended. Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, that this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny Me thrice. Peter saith unto Him, Even if I must die with Thee, yet will I not deny Thee. Likewise also said all the disciples. 36 “Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto His disciples, Sit ye here, while I go yonder and pray. And He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and sore troubled. 38 Then saith He unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death; abide ye here, and watch with Me.”
Golden Text: “As often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord’s death till He come.” 1 Cor. 11:26.

NOTES.
1. The feast of unleavened bread, or the Passover, began on the fifteenth day of Abib, the first month of the Jewish religious year, and the seventh month of the civil year. It began with the first new moon after the spring equinox. The preparation for the feast was made on the fourteenth day of the month; the paschal lamb was slain in the evening of that day, and was eaten in the night or forepart of the fifteenth, the days being reckoned from evening to evening. The Hebrew months were lunar months, and were therefore variable, so that feasts set for certain days of the month could have no reference to the days of the week. The feast of the Passover continued seven days, and the first and seventh days of the feast were special Sabbath days, whether they fell on the weekly Sabbath or not. This feast is mentioned in detail in Exodus 12 and in Deuteronomy 16.
2. The Passover was the memorial of the angel’s passing over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt on the night when all the first-born of the Egyptians were slain. The time of the feast was the anniversary of Israel’s departure from Egypt. The lamb slain at each annual feast by each family was a type of Christ, the Lamb of God, our true Passover. 1 Cor. 5:7. The occasion mentioned in this lesson was the last legitimate typical Passover that could be celebrated, as the Antitype was to be slain the next day, or rather on the same day on which that typical lamb was eaten. As Christ’s death could no longer be celebrated in type, the Lord’s supper was instituted to commemorate the important event thereafter in memorial.
3. Unleavened bread was used throughout the Passover week. Leavened bread was not even permitted to be kept in the house (Deut. 16:4), so it must have been unleavened bread that was used in the institution of the Lord’s supper. There were significant reasons for its use in both cases. (1) It was a reminder of the haste with which they prepared to leave Egypt; it was also called the “bread of affliction.” Verse 3. (2) Bread is leavened by fermentation, which is incipient putrefaction; hence leavened bread could not fitly represent the pure life and consequent sinless body of Christ.
4. The preparation.—It was necessary to have a room with accommodations for cooking and eating; also unleavened bread, bitter herbs, grape juice, and a lamb. It was required that the lamb be slain at the temple (Deut. 16:2), but it had to be cooked at the house where it was to be eaten. Peter and John were the two disciples sent to make the preparation. Luke 22:8.
5. “Lord, is it I?”—This earnest question indicates a serious self-examination appropriate on all such occasions. See 1 Cor. 11:27-29.
6. Eating of Christ’s body.—We eat food for the purpose of sustaining life. All proper food, all real food, nourishes the body and enters into the life. So in eating the body of Christ by faith, His life enters into our life. Eating of Christ’s body can not be confined to partaking of the emblems on communion occasions; it is more than such occasional eating could possibly be. Nor can that occasion impart its full benefit unless there be the daily partaking; for this alone can impart healthful spiritual life. Christ is the Word of God: “The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us.” John 1:14. And in chapter 6:54 Jesus says, “Whoso eateth My flesh, and drinketh My blood, hath eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.” Again, in verse 56, He says, “He that eateth My flesh, and drinketh My blood, dwelleth in Me, and I in him.” He thus explains His meaning more fully: “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing; the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.” Verse 63. He had on a former occasion said, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” Matt. 4:4. It is by faithful study of His Word, and obedience to its requirements, that we truly feed on Christ, and are enabled to discern His body and blood in the Lord’s supper.
7. THE word “wine” is not used in any of the accounts of the institution of this ordinance. It is the “cup,” or the “fruit of the vine.” This vitiates the argument of many persons that strong wine should be used. The same prohibition would lie against the presence of fermented wine in the house at all, that lay against the presence of leavened, or fermented, bread. The “cup” represented the blood, or life, of One who “saw no corruption.” Acts 13:37. The old covenant, or testament, was ratified, or sealed, with the corruptible blood of animals (Ex. 24:3-8; Heb. 9:18-20); but that covenant decayed (Heb. 8:13). On the contrary, the new covenant was ratified by the “blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God.” Heb. 9:14. This new covenant being everlasting, it can not decay; therefore the blood by which it is ratified can not be represented by an element that is decayed, as all fermented substances are to the extent of their fermentation.

—China, Japan, and Turkey have declared their neutrality in the war between the United States and Spain. Austria has not declared herself, and Germany still reserves her decision.
—A despatch from Havana states that the Spanish authorities have blown up the wreck of the battleship Maine, which has been lying in the mud of the harbor since the night of February 15.
—The headquarters of the American missionaries in the Sherbro district, West Africa, have been burned by a band of insurgent natives. The missionaries belonged to the United Brotherhood of Christ.
—The British consul and the consulate at Santiago de Cuba have been attacked by angry mobs of Spaniards, on account of the consul having continued to carry out the work of the American consul in feeding the reconcentrados.
—News has been received at Lisbon, Portugal, that the Spanish Cape Verde fleet, which it was supposed was nearly across the Atlantic, has returned to Spain to join the Spanish fleet at Cadiz, which is nearly ready for sea.
—It is reported that the Korean Government has recently granted a concession for a railway from the coast to the capital, and that the road is in process of construction at the present time. This will be the first railway in the kingdom.
—It is rumored that the British consul at Santiago de Cuba fired into a mob which had assaulted the consulate, killing one man, and that the consul was at once imprisoned. English war vessels have been despatched to the vicinity.
—The Mexican police have been ordered to prevent the meetings of Spanish sympathizers in that city for the purpose of raising funds for the Spanish Government. These meetings are considered contrary to the obligations of a neutral nation.
—General Pando, commander of the Spanish forces in Cuba, has withdrawn the garrison from Bayamo, one of the principal towns of the province of Santiago de Cuba, and the town was immediately occupied by the forces of Gen. Calixto Garcia.
—The bubonic plague has broken out in Hongkong, and is reported to be spreading rapidly. Energetic measures are being taken to check the disease, but the reluctance of the natives to report cases makes the efforts of the health officers only partially successful.
—Spain’s second squadron, which is now outfitting at Cadiz, experiences much difficulty in securing needed supplies and armament on account of the low financial condition of the country. The British engineers have refused to serve in this squadron, believing that they will be liable to punishment by their own government on account of the foreign enlistment act.
—A despatch from Hongkong states that the imperial Chinese court is preparing to migrate from Pekin to Si Nigan Fu, capital of a department in the province of Shen Se, relying on Gen. Wung Pu Ching to cover the removal. Plots against the dynasty are given as the reason for the anticipated change.
—The queen regent of Spain has again requested the blessing of the pope on the naval and military forces of her kingdom. It was given last week before the battle of Manila. If her request is granted now, reasoning analogically, the American fleet might expect another victory. “The Invincible Armada” of Philip II, in 1588 was blessed by the pope.
—Reports received at St. Thomas, West Indies, state that famine and smallpox are killing men, women, and children in Porto Rico. Hundreds are perishing of hunger. The smaller villages are petitioning the governor for succor. Many of the inhabitants of the coast towns are fleeing to the interior, fearing a bombardment by the American fleet. The war scare has increased the price of provisions fifty per cent., and laborers have struck for higher wages on account of this advance in the cost of living.
—The Spanish Government is on the verge of a revolution. The disaster to the Spanish fleet in Manila at the hands of the American squadron has thrown the populace into a frenzy, and rioting is rife on every hand. Madrid has been declared under martial law, as has also the entire province of Oviedo. In this province the rioting was so dangerous that the troops were compelled to fire into the mob. Strong speeches have been made in the Cortes, denouncing the course of the government and lauding as a patriot the man who should change the régime. The government is said to be aware that it can not depend upon the army, and that a society has been formed within its ranks “to end the humiliation which Spain has suffered at the hands of her incompetent ministers.”
DOMESTIC
—A fire in Armour’s glue factory, in Chicago, on May 4, resulted in a destruction of $250,000 worth of property.
—The battle-ship Oregon, gunboat Marietta, and the dynamite cruiser Buffalo (formerly the Nichteroy) have sailed from Brazil to join the North Atlantic squadron.
—It is reported that President McKinley has notified foreign residents in Havana to leave the city in view of the fact that it may be bombarded before many days.
—At this writing no troops have yet embarked for Cuba, but the regulars are being mobilized at convenient points, and it is expected that an advance will be made in a few days.
—The steamer City of Pekin has been chartered at San Francisco to carry supplies to the American fleet in Manila and bring home the men who were wounded in the engagement there.
—The big American ship Shenandoah, bound from San Francisco to Liverpool, which was reported to have been captured by a Spanish cruiser, has arrived safely at her destination.
—Four robbers held up the Santa Fe train at Comstock, Texas, on April 29, and it is believed they secured a large amount of booty. The safe and express car were blown up with dynamite.
—The United States legation at Montevideo has been placed under guard by the Uruguayan authorities, on account of the threats made against the American minister and consular officials there.
—A supposed Spanish spy is now imprisoned at Fort St. Philip, Louisiana. Plans of the forts and fortifications along the Mississippi were found upon him, and he will be tried before a military commission.
—A series of terrible explosions occurred at the Atlantic Powder Company’s works at Dover, N. J., on April 28, killing six men and wounding four. All of the ten buildings comprising the powder mill were blown up.
—Mr. Berliner, the telephone expert, and other electricians of Washington, D. C., have recently been conducting successful experiments in the line of exploding torpedoes without the use of connecting wires. These experiments are along the line of Tesla’s recent discoveries.
—On April 30, Commodore Dewey, commander of the American squadron in the waters of the Orient, entered the harbor of Manila, the capital of the Philippines, at an early hour in the morning, having passed the batteries without being observed, and immediately engaged the Spanish fleet in the harbor. A terrific battle ensued, in which five of the Spanish war vessels were either burned or sunk. It is supposed that there was a great loss of life on both sides, the American fleet at the same time sustaining the fire of the enemy’s vessels and the forts and batteries on shore. Having silenced the fleet, Commodore Dewey began the bombardment of the batteries, and while this was in progress the cable was cut at a considerable distance from shore, effectually stopping all communication. Dewey’s victory is regarded by all military and naval men as an exceedingly brilliant one, and his dash by the forts in the night is looked upon everywhere as a remarkable achievement.
—A bill was passed by the Senate on May 2 authorizing the enlistment of 10,000 southern men who were immune to yellow fever, to take part in the occupation of Cuba. On the same day the House passed the emergency war bill, carrying an appropriation of $36,000,000 for the expenses of the army.
—The big Atlantic liner Paris, which was recently purchased by the Government for use as an auxiliary cruiser, and about which considerable anxiety was felt during her trip from England to New York, arrived safely on April 30. She was at once turned over to the government and her name was changed to Yale.
—A battle took place off the southern coast of Cuba on April 29 between three American gunboats and two Spanish torpedo boats and one torpedo boat destroyer. The Spanish boats were driven to shelter and the Spanish mail steamer Argonauta was captured by the gunboats and taken to Key West. The Argonauta carried twenty Spanish officers, with arms, ammunition, and supplies for the troops in Cuba. She is regarded as one of the most valuable prizes thus far taken.
—The following resolution, adopted by the bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church in semi-annual session at Albion, Michigan, will illustrate how easy it is for some of the professed followers of Christ to busy themselves about that which is not their Master’s business: “Resolved, That we, the board of bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church, . . . express our confidence in the wisdom, ability, and exalted character of President McKinley, and assure him of the sympathy, support, and prayers of our people everywhere. Resolved, That we render most hearty thanks to God for the victory He has vouchsafed to our arms at Manila, and that we congratulate our navy upon this magnificent achievement.”
