Current Mention
— Several Mormons of Apache County, Arizona, are to be prosecuted by the federal authorities on the charge of polygamy.
— A dispatch from Cardiff, Wales, reports the loss of 126 lives by an explosion in a pit of the United National Colliery Company at Wattstown, in the Rhondda Valley, July 11.
— Word has been received from Samoa that a gale of hurricane violence swept over the islands June 12, doing great damage to the plantations, especially in German Samoa.
— A great sensation has been created in English military circles by a declaration from Field Marshal Lord Roberts that the British army is inadequate, imperfectly trained, and totally unfit to uphold Great Britain as a first-class power.
— A Berlin dispatch dated July 10, says: “It is reported here that Prince Ferdinand has resolved to take advantage of Russia’s weakness and proclaim himself king of Bulgaria on August 2. He has, according to the report, persuaded Germany, Great Britain, and Austria not to oppose his action. If Turkey forcibly opposes it, he is determined to fight for the independence of Bulgaria.”
— Reports from Manchuria state that the Japanese are investing Vladivostock, and that disaffection is spreading among the Russian troops. The latter fact is used by the Russian generals as an argument against peace, on the ground that it would be dangerous to the government to let the disaffected troops return to their homes. Meanwhile military operations are held in check, partly by heavy rains, and partly, it is believed, to await the outcome of the peace negotiations.
— The substitution of M. Witte for Count Muravieff as head of the Russian envoy to discuss peace terms with the Japanese representatives at Portsmouth, N. H., next August, is regarded as a strong guaranty that peace is at hand in the far East, M. Witte being known as a strong peace advocate. The uprisings in Poland and other parts of the Russian empire appear to have mostly subsided, though reports of burning and looting on the part of peasants have come from the neighborhood of Odessa, and there have been rumors of a mutiny of four regiments of grenadiers at Moscow. Twenty-four of the leaders in the recent rioting at Odessa have been hung, and seventeen others are expected to meet a similar fate.
— A projected system of parliamentary government for Russia is reported to have been drawn up by Minister-of-the-Interior Bouligin, the principal provisions of which are stated as follows: “The question of the election of members to the lower house of the legislative assembly is settled, not on the basis of property, but on that of the suffrage of men and women, the latter voting by proxy. The classes absolutely debarred are Jews, the nomadic races, persons not of Russian nationality, governors, and other imperial and local administrators, and all persons connected with the police. It is provided that the disability of the Jews shall only continue until their status shall have been defined by the popular assembly. Persons convicted of crime, etc., are also deprived of suffrage. The emperor possesses the right of absolute veto as well as the power to procure the assembly. The presidents of the respective chambers are to be chosen by the emperor, and he will have the right to suspend the sittings.” A sensational rumor is current that an ultimatum will shortly be presented to the czar, demanding political rights in behalf of the army.
— The twenty-second international convention of the United Society of Christian Endeavor was concluded in Baltimore, July 10. A message from President Clark, who was absent on account of sickness, was read at the close of the session, presenting the following as the aims of the society for the new era following the completion of the first quarter century of its existence: “A million new members brought into our societies. A million people brought to church, or prayer-meeting, or Sunday-school. A million young people brought into membership in the church of the living God. A million dollars for missions at home and abroad, given through our denominational boards.” The present membership of the society is now, in round numbers, 4,000,000.
— A district in New York City stretching from Fifty-seventh Street to Sixty-eighth Street, between Amsterdam and West End Avenues, was the scene of a race riot July 14, which continued for more than an hour, and required a police force of two hundred and fifty men to quell. Many shots were fired, and stones, bricks, and bottles were thrown from roofs by the combatants, many of whom received severe injuries. For a half-hour cars were blocked on Amsterdam Avenue, some of which had every window broken by the rioters, the passengers being obliged to flee to neighboring houses for safety. Eleven arrests were made, and the report states that a “regular arsenal of weapons” was taken from the prisoners, showing that the rougher element in the city are allowed to carry arms.
— An American squadron bearing the supposed remains of Admiral John Paul Jones, the hero of the first notable sea fight under the American flag, is expected to arrive at Annapolis from France July 22, where the body will be placed in a chapel which is to be built for it. From testimony given by medical men who performed an autopsy on the remains, it appears that no reasonable doubt is entertained of the identity of the remains, which were in a fair state of preservation, the body having been embalmed before burial. The body was found on the site of a small Protestant cemetery in Paris, which had been abandoned and was covered with buildings, some of which were torn down to facilitate the search, which was being conducted by Ambassador Porter under the authority of the French and American governments. An imposing military funeral in Paris preceded the transfer of the admiral’s body to the ship.

The presidents of the various conferences are requested to send us information regarding any meetings not mentioned in the preceding table, so that we may be able to give a complete list. Please inform us at once of any corrections or additions that should be made to this report.
A Special Opportunity for the Right Man
The property secured by Brother J. E. White, near Edgefield, Tenn., includes a well-equipped cereal food plant. This plant is practically new, and is provided with a full line of cereal food machinery of the most modern make. There is a large twelve-pan reel oven, manufactured by Pembroke D. Harton, a three-barrel dough mixer, dough brake, power flour sifter, two grinding mills, the cracker machine, and other necessary accessories and appliances usually in use in well-appointed bakeries or food plants. These23facilities should be put into operation, as there is need and demand for the products of their manufacture. It is the best equipped plant, and, in fact, the only one owned by our people, in the Southern States.
Brother White will lease or sell, on most favorable terms, the plant to any one competent to assist in putting into operation this much-needed enterprise.
The Southern Sanitarium at Graysville, Tenn., the Atlanta (Ga.) Sanitarium, and the Nashville Sanitarium are all within easy reach of Edgefield, and would naturally draw supplies from this food plant if it were in operation. The new agricultural school started by Professors Magan and Sutherland is not a short distance from this location, and there is already a sufficient demand for foods from our own people to warrant an immediate beginning, which will require but small capital. Any one interested will please correspond with J. E. White, Edgefield, Tenn.
The Oklahoma Camp-Meeting
By G. F. Haffner
Our general annual camp-meeting is again near at hand. It will be held in Oklahoma City, August 24 to September 3. This place was chosen because it is in the center of the conference, and can easily be reached by rail from all directions. We know some will object to this place because the camp-meeting has been held here several times before, and the argument is used that we should go to new places with our camp-meetings; but, brethren, when you consider the rapid growth of this city since the meeting was held here, you will agree that it is almost a new place again, for it has more than doubled in population since then. We hope that every one will now be satisfied with the selection of the place, and will come to this feast of the Lord. The Lord has great blessings in store for his people at this time. Let us come and receive them. We are hearing already of good reports from different camp-meetings,—how the Lord has come near by his Spirit, and how sinners have given their hearts to the Lord, and backsliders have been reclaimed,—and why should we not have in Oklahoma receive the same blessings, or even greater ones? There are already many prayers ascending to God that this may be the best meeting we have ever had, and the Lord will hear the prayers of his people. Do not let Satan keep you away from this meeting. We expect good help from the General Conference. They have promised us two good men; who they are we have not learned yet, but we know they will be men of God, and will have something good from the Lord for his people; so please come and bring your whole family if possible. Invite your neighbors to come, bring your friends and all you can get to come. If one soul could be saved by your effort, would this not pay?—Yes, surely; for one soul is worth more than the whole world. May God help you to come and bring the children, as angels of the Lord with you. Let each one pray for the success of this meeting.
G. F. HAFFNER, President.

PARSONS.—Died at Santa Rosa, Cal., June 22, 1905, of pneumonia, Sister Alta Parsons, wife of Chas. E. Parsons, in her twenty-sixth year. She was a devoted and earnest Christian worker in both the home and the church, and will be greatly missed. Interment took place at Santa Rosa. C. L. TAYLOR.
McWILLIAMS.—Died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. G. F. Haggard, of Caddon Mills, Tex., May 19, 1905, Mrs. Elizabeth McWilliams, aged 69 years, 5 months, and 18 days. The deceased accepted the third angel’s message about twenty-seven years ago, under the labors of Elder R. M. Kilgore, and has loved and endeavored to obey it ever since. One son and three daughters are left to mourn their loss. MRS. L. L. BEATTY.
WILSON.—Died at his home at Springville, Tenn., June 17, 1905, J. A. Wilson, aged 62 years and 10 months. Brother Wilson began to observe the Sabbath in the fall of 1887, and a few months later became a member of the church at this place. There was no one more prompt at all our services than he. He leaves a wife, two sons, and two daughters to mourn their loss, but they sorrow not as those who have no hope. Words of consolation were spoken from John 11:25. S. G. GRIMES.
HEYRAULT.—Peacefully fell asleep at Emmett, Mich., May 16, 1905, of quick consumption, Jeanna Lucilla, daughter of Louis Francois and Elise Desmarty Heyrault, aged 17 years, 4 months, and 1 day. She had not made an open profession of religion; but in her closing days often expressed the assurance that Christ was her Saviour. She leaves her father and mother, three sisters, and many friends to mourn their loss. The funeral was held at the Tabernacle in Battle Creek. The writer conducted the service. A. C. BOURDEAU.
TUCKER.—Died at the Melrose Sanitarium, June 21, 1905, of heart-disease, Brother Thomas Tillinghast Tucker, of Narragansett Pier, R. I., aged 69 years, 6 months, and 9 days. He was a son of John W. and Sally Tucker, and was born at Charlestown, R. I. He was a man who read and thought much, and after studying the doctrines of the different denominations for twenty years, he united with the Seventh-day Adventist church at Curtis Corner, R. I., in 1884, and was an active member in church and conference work until his death. A son and one sister are left to mourn their loss. The funeral service was conducted by Elder E. E. Miles. Words of comfort were spoken from 1 Corinthians 15 and 1 Thess. 4:13-18. H. B. TUCKER.
INGELS.—Fell asleep at Washington, D. C., May 17, 1905, Sister Jane Woodward Ingels, aged 68 years, 10 months, 19 days. She had gone with her daughter, Sister Hindson, to attend the General Conference, incidentally visiting friends. A cold was contracted, which developed pneumonia, and although nurses and physicians did their utmost, the disease proved fatal. Sister Ingels was converted and joined the Congregational Church in 1883; later she joined the Seventh-day Adventist church at San Francisco. She was a true Christian, and possessed a strong, beautiful character. She was the mother of five children, four of whom survive her. She had lately purchased a home in Oakland, where her remains were brought, and on May 24 a funeral service was held for the benefit of her friends there. The next day she was laid to rest in beautiful Oak Hill Cemetery in San Jose, beside her husband. Here another short service was held, where the presence of her many friends testified to their regard. D. T. FERO.
Oklahoma Conference
By G. F. Haffner; Wm. Voth
The twelfth session of the Oklahoma Conference will be held in connection with the camp-meeting at Oklahoma City, August 24 to September 3. Important business will be attended to, such as the election of officers for another year, and granting of licenses and credentials to ministers; other important matters will also be considered. We would like to see a full delegation from all the churches. This means one delegate for each church, regardless of membership, and one additional delegate for each fifteen members. Please send the names of your delegates to the conference secretary, Wm. Voth. Let each church attend to this matter at once. Let us remember that we are doing God’s work, and that we should do it promptly and in the fear of the Lord. Choose such persons as the church can recommend, and as will come to the meeting; it is useless to elect them as delegates when you know they are not coming.
G. F. HAFFNER, President,
WM. VOTH, Secretary.
Woman’s Work for Woman
WOMAN'S work for woman occupies a large space in the July number of The Missionary Review of the World. Miss Clementina Butler describes the modern methods and achievements of Women's Missionary Societies; Mrs. Horace G. Underwood tells of the trying conditions of life in Korea and the work of women for women in that land; Mrs. Joseph Cook portrays the character and career of the renowned traveler, Mrs. Isabella Bird Bishop; and Dr. Herbert Anderson pictures almost too vividly the distressing prevalence of the “Social Evil in India.” He shows the causes based in Hindu religions, the effect on the people, and what is being done to counteract these degrading habits.
The General Conference Treasury Department
By W. T. Bland
I AM sure our people generally are glad to know that Elder I. H. Evans has been able to close up his business relationship with the old Review and Herald Publishing Company at Battle Creek, Mich., to such an extent that he can now take active charge of the General Conference finances. Elder Evans's long experience in connection with the various departments of the General Conference fits him most thoroughly to take the management of the Treasury Department , and to direct in the financial affairs of the denomination.
During the past two years while the writer has been acting treasurer of the General Conference, on account of the inability of the treasurer to take charge of the work, he has greatly appreciated the opportunities it has afforded. The correspondence with our brethren, both in this country and in foreign lands, has been a source of much pleasure, and has given a knowledge of, and an insight into, the various features of the denominational work that nothing else outside of personal visits could afford.
Our people making remittances to the general office or writing for information concerning business matters or financial affairs relating to the General Conference or Mission Board will kindly remember to address all such communications to Elder I. H. Evans, Treasurer of the General Conference, Takoma Park Station, Washington, D. C.
