Field Notes and Gleanings

ELDER F. H. DEVINNEY reports the baptism of four at South Russell, N. Y.
A NEW church of eight members has been organized at Lebanon, Kan., by Elder D. U. Hale.
SIX NEW Sabbath-keepers are reported at Walnut Springs, Tex., as a result of the efforts of Elder H. B. French.
THE NEW JERSEY CONFERENCE will this year have four tent companies in the field. One of these companies will work for the Germans and another for the Swedes.
The Wisconsin Reporter notes the fact that in one locality a family of six have come into the truth as the result of the faithful labors of one of our canvassers.
A REPORT from Kansas states that in spite of rain and mud, the canvassing report for the two weeks ending June 12, shows an average of over one dollar an hour for each hour put in by the canvassers in that field.
NEAR the close of the Lodi (Cal.) camp-meeting, thirty-one candidates went to the river near the town and were buried with their Lord in baptism. A number of these were young people from the church-school which has been conducted at Lodi the past year.
THE note in this department in the issue of June 25, which mentioned the baptism of fifteen persons as the result of the labors of “Elder W. W. Ruble and L. E. Camp,” should have read, “As the result of special effort put forth in that church by Elder W. W. Ruble.”
ELDER A. R. OGDEN, writing of the work at Palco, Kan., states that our people in that place now own a good house of worship, and that it was his privilege before leaving there, to receive into the church seven new members, four of whom had recently been baptized by Elder C. E. Peckover.
ELDER M. H. GREGORY reports a good interest at Lancaster, Ark., where a number are awaiting baptism at the present time. Much opposition to the truth was manifested at the time in the town of Lucky, where the Campbellites were insisting on a discussion. As a result of the debate, eighteen persons have made a start for the kingdom. Eight of these were baptized, and ten have united with the church at that place, greatly strengthening the company which was already holding up the light of truth in that vicinity.
