KING.—Died near Francesville, Ind., Jan. 23, 1901, Sister Nellie King, wife of Brother Andrew E. King, aged 61 years, 7 months, 14 days. The deceased was a member of the Bethel Seventh-day Adventist church near her home, and lived a consistent godly life. Funeral services were conducted by the writer. S. G. HUNTINGTON.
ROSSEAU.—Brother John Rosseau, of Topeka, Kan., died at the home of his parents, Jan. 5, 1901, of consumption. Though an extreme sufferer, his closing days were days of patience and peace. We firmly believe that he sleeps in Jesus. He leaves a wife and two children, besides other relatives. Words of comfort were spoken by the writer. J. W. WESTPHAL.
PARKER.—Died at West Burke, Vt., Jan. 24, 1901, Sister I. Parker, aged 77 years. She was formerly associated with the Baptists; but for more than forty years she has been connected with the Third Angel’s Message. She was a light to all who knew her. She sleeps in Jesus. Funeral discourse was given by the writer, from John 11:25. J. W. WATT.
BECK.—Brother A. J. Beck died at the home of his son in Springdale, Wash., Jan. 28, 1901, of a paralytic stroke. He was born at Chillicothe, Ohio, in 1832. He accepted the Third Angel’s Message in 1868 under the labors of Elder J. Bartlett. Even to the latest moments of life he continued to sow the seeds of truth. This death wounds the hearts of a wife, two sons, and five daughters. Funeral sermon was delivered by Rev. A. Chuinard (Congregationalist). I. C. COLCORD.
FERO.—Died at her home in Catlin, N. Y., Jan. 20, 1901, of pneumonia, Mrs. Diantha Fero, aged 82 years, 7 months, 20 days. She leaves, to mourn the loss of a faithful wife and loving mother, an aged husband, three daughters, and an only son, Elder D. T. Fero, of Portland, Ore. In early life Sister Fero with her companion united with the Baptist church of Moreland, N. Y. About thirty-five years ago she joined the Seventh-day Adventist church of Catlin, N. Y., and had since lived a consistent Christian life. Words of comfort were spoken by Elder Thompson (Baptist), from Ps. 18:2. JAMES D. KIMBLE.
NETTLEINGHAM.—Died at her home near Sheridan, Ill., Jan. 17, 1901, of dropsy, Elizabeth Jane Nettleingham, née Middleton. The deceased was born June 29, 1847; and at eighteen years of age received confirmation in the Episcopal church of Ottawa, Ill. One year later, Feb. 20, 1866, she was united in marriage with Alfred Nettleingham. In 1869, in company with her husband, she attended a series of meetings conducted by Elders R. F. Andrews and T. M. Steward, held at Northville, Ill.; and shortly after, they were enrolled among the original members of what has ever since been known as the Sheridan church of Seventh-day Adventists. During all the following years Sister Nettleingham lived a consistent Christian, esteemed by all who knew her. She was an exemplary wife and mother. The funeral services were conducted by the writer, assisted by Elder Wm. Simpson, of Canada. W. D. CURTIS.

... The ... Sanctuary

Will be the general subject of the Sabbath-school Lessons for the 2d quarter of 1901.
The present work of Christ, and its relation to every living soul, are too little understood; and to get the most benefit out of the Sabbath-school lessons good helps should be secured. No better help can be obtained than

“LOOKING INTO JESUS.”

This volume is a complete and exhaustive treatise on the Sanctuary question.
The Christian Work, New York, in speaking of “Looking Into Jesus,” says:—
“Can not but thrill the heart of the reader. We heartily commend the contents of this little volume to the careful study of all interested in the subject.”
This book contains over 300 pages, and all the illustrations were made especially for it. The frontispiece is in three colors, showing the interior of the sanctuary. Bound in three styles of binding:—

The Teachers' Conference Bulletin: Church School Pamphlet Offer

There is still an opportunity for those who have not obtained a copy of "The Teachers' Conference Bulletin" to get one. This pamphlet describes the plans for successful church school work, and should be read by teachers and parents, and others interested in this important work, which is attracting so much attention among us. Among other live questions which are discussed, are the following: Should the Regular Tithe Be Used to Support Church Schools? What is Christian Education, and What Does It Mean? There are also addresses from Elders G. A. Irwin and A. J. Breed, Prof. J. E. Tenney, Dr. J. H. Kellogg, and many others, which make it a valuable reference book. Price, fifty cents, postpaid. Address Battle Creek College.
The papacy in the Philippines is now taking positive political strides: "Father McKinnon has declared that "there are eight hundred priests who will not administer the sacraments to members of the Federal party."

Unsolicited Copies of the Review Explained

If you receive copies of this paper without ordering them, please remember that they are sent to you by some friend. Persons thus receiving copies of the REVIEW will not be called upon to pay for them. If, after reading these copies, you do not care to keep them, please hand them to your friends to read

Religious Dissensions Increasing in the Philippines

It is announced that “religious dissensions appear to be increasing in the Philippines.”

Sunday-Law Hearing in Massachusetts Report

For that full and excellent report of the “Sunday-Law Hearing in Massachusetts,” printed on the second editorial page of this number of the REVIEW, we are indebted to the Springfield Republican.

April Life Boat Prisoners' Number Announced

The April number of the Life Boat will be the annual Prisoners’ Number. The leading article will be “How Criminals Are Made.” Let all help to give it the widest possible circulation; for to know how to be kept from making criminals concerns those who are not prisoners as well as those who are.

Papal Temporal Power and the Guarantee of Europe

In the Independent of February 14, a writer on “Vatican and Quirinal” says that “the pope desires to have the temporal power guaranteed by the great nations of Europe, holding that the guarantee of Italy would not be sufficient in the future, as it was not sufficient for his protection in the past.” He will get this for “an hour,” and then these nations will turn and literally devour the whole wicked system. What the pope thinks will be the salvation of the papacy, will be the surest token of her complete and final ruin.

Catholic Friars and Land Monopoly in the Philippines

It is found that in the Philippines the Catholic friars, or religious orders,—Franciscan, Dominican, etc.,—hold four hundred and six thousand acres of the land. This has been obtained by oppression and robbery of the people. And thousands upon thousands of the people are still oppressed and robbed by these land monopolists. It is from just such a thing as this that France is now trying to free herself. Will the United States keep free from it, or will she support it, in the Philippines? The pope insists that the religious orders are essentially of the Church.

TO ALL THE GERMANS

We are now hard at work translating, type-setting, and making plates on the German “Christ’s Object Lessons.” There has been an urgent demand for this book from our German brethren. It will take considerable money to get the book out, but “where there’s a will, there is always a way.” One little church in Kansas subscribed two hundred dollars. The German brethren in Wisconsin are going to do all they can, and so are the brethren in Colorado. And now we appeal to all our German brethren everywhere who have not already helped in this matter, to help us get this book out. It will cost, for the translating, type-setting, and plate-making, two sets of plates being required, one for this country and one for Germany, at least one thousand dollars. Send in gifts and pledges to the treasurer of the General Conference. Mark these gifts, “For the RELIEF OF THE SCHOOLS—German;” then we will know that your money is to get out the book in German.
Brethren, we are paying off the debts, little by little; but just as surely and steadily as our march to the kingdom, we are doing it. February 12 the Battle Creek College paid the Review and Herald over thirty-two hundred dollars on what the college is owing the Review and Herald. This was the payment for December and January. Besides this, Battle Creek College paid over one thousand dollars to other parties, making over forty-two hundred dollars for these two months. Union College is also making payments on its debts.
Now we want a multitude of German voices in the chorus of the jubilee song of freedom, which we are all going to sing so soon. Come on, brethren, let us keep it up until we get done with debt, and let us get done soon. Let us work and pray with all our might till the last debt is swept into the bottom of the sea. Be of good cheer. The book will be ready by the middle of April or by the first of May. P. T. Magan.

REDUCED RATES TO THE GENERAL CONFERENCE

A few weeks ago we published a notice in the REVIEW stating that each delegation could apply to their nearest transportation agent who is a member of the general committee named in the notice. Since then we have been requested by many to arrange for reduced rates for all. We have accordingly taken the matter up with the Michigan Passenger Association, and they have granted a rate of one and one-third fare for the round trip. They have promised to take the matter up with the other passenger associations. As soon as we hear from them, we will put a notice in the REVIEW. It is a ruling that the passenger association in whose territory the meeting is held must take the initiative step before others will act.
This rate is on conditions that there are one hundred persons who hold regular certificates of tickets purchased not more than three days prior to, nor two later than, April 2.
L. A. HOOPES, Gen. Trans. Agt.

NOTICE!

In harmony with Article V, Section I, of the General Conference Constitution, notice is hereby given that the thirty-fourth session of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists will be held at Battle Creek, Mich., U. S. A., April 2-23, 1901. The meetings will be held in the Seventh-day Adventist Tabernacle, beginning Tuesday, April 2, at 9 A. M. The membership of the Conference is defined in Article III of the Constitution, as follows:—

Such delegates shall be elected by the local Conference, or appointed by its Executive Committee.
G. A. IRWIN, Pres. Gen. Conf.

VISITORS TO THE GENERAL CONFERENCE

The Committee on Entertainment, in trying to make provision for all who are making application for rooms during the time of the Conference, find themselves confronted with a number of obstacles; and in order that the situation may be fully understood by all, we have thought best to send out a statement which, after being read, will enable individuals to plan accordingly.
A large majority of those who are writing to us ask that they may have rooms in close proximity to the place of meeting; and while we would be glad to comply with all these requests, yet it will be impossible, as we have four requests for every such place.
From present indications there will be a very large attendance, and arrangements will have to be made by many to bring ticks and bedding, and provide for themselves, the same as at camp-meetings. We have secured some large rooms for this purpose.
Inasmuch as the time of the Conference is drawing near, we would urge all who have not made arrangements to write at once, inclosing a stamp for reply. J. W. COLLIE, Chairman of Committee on Entertainment.

SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST PUBLISHING ASSOCIATION

THE forty-first annual stockholders’ meeting of the Seventh-day Adventist Publishing Association (tenth annual session under the new charter) will be held in the Tabernacle, at Battle Creek, Mich., Tuesday, March 26, 1901, at 10 A. M., local time, for the election of two directors for three years, and for the transaction of any other business that may properly come before the meeting.
