CALIFORNIA CAMP-MEETING.

By California Conference Committee

IT is now decided to hold the camp-meeting in Alameda, commencing Sept. 16, and continuing over two Sabbaths and first-days, until Sept. 27. The ground is near the Encinal Station on the railroad running through Oakland. Those coming over the Central Pacific will change cars at the end of Oakland wharf, and then take the Alameda train instead of going to San Francisco.

A car which will carry fifty passengers can be chartered from Fresno for $425.00, to come and return, making the round trip $8.50, providing that number attend. From Woodland the cost for a car will be $174.50; from St. Helena, $133.50; from Chico, $381.50.

Should a car be chartered, all would have to come and return at the same time in the same car. They should start from Fresno on the 15th, the other mentioned places the 16th, and return the day after the meeting closes.

At the above mentioned places immediate steps should be taken to ascertain how many will come. Correspondence can be held with Bro. Israel, and all arrangements will be made.

Arrangements have also been made with the Benicia and Martinez ferry for those coming with teams; namely, each double team and two persons $3.00; return free. Each additional person fifty cents extra. The boat leaves Benicia at 8 A. M., 1:50 and 5:30 P. M.

Provision will be made for horses on the ground. Tents 12 by 15 can be rented for $4.00. Those wishing to rent tents should immediately correspond with Eld. M. C. Israel, Oakland, Cal. Care Pacific Press. CAL. CONF. COMMITTEE.
