Field Notes

SEVEN souls have recently accepted the message of present truth at Cascade, Mont.
ELDER C. F. McVAGH reports that four persons united with the church at Coudersport, Pa., and four received baptism, on the occasion of the recent quarterly meeting there.
A CHURCH of fifteen members has been organized at Hartwell, Neb. A new church building has just been erected at this place. A Sabbath-school of good size is maintained.
FROM the Kansas Worker we learn that “several at Logan have decided to obey and walk in the light. Elder A. R. Ogden continues his meetings there. The attendance and interest are very good.”
IN a report of the Stevensville, Mont., camp-meeting, Brother J. A. Holbrook says: “On Friday twenty-one persons were baptized, and two others, who had been baptized before, joined the church. The brethren were all greatly encouraged.”
ELDER L. E. JOHNSON reports the baptism of eight persons at the headwaters of the South Loup River, in Nebraska, also of eight others in the Platte River near Lexington, and eight more in the Loup River near Oconto. At the latter place a church of twenty members was organized.
WE learn from the Pacific Union Recorder that “a very neat and commodious building is being erected at North Yakima, Wash., for sanitarium purposes. Brother A. R. Starr and Dr. Rossiter are putting up the building. The plumbers are already at work, and they expect to have it finished and ready for service by September 1.”
THE Southwestern Union Record says: “A most encouraging report comes from Elder Watts in a private letter from Tahlequah, I. T. He states that the Arkansas workers will have four or five new churches to present to the conference at camp-meeting, and that there has been a very large increase in the tithes over any preceding year. The brethren in Arkansas should certainly take courage and press the work.”
A REPORT of the work and workers in Virginia states that Elder M. S. Babcock is in charge of a tent at Roanoke; Elder H. W. Herrell is holding tent-meetings at Fredericksburg; Elder C. B. Rule is in charge of a tent at Pool’s Siding; and Elder H. J. Farman will pitch a tent at or near Lynchburg. Brother W. H. Zeidler is looking after the canvassing work. A tent will be put in the field for the colored people if the way opens.
FOUR tent companies will be at work in the Upper Columbia Conference this season, besides the work in Spokane. Elder W. R. Smith and Brother F. D. Wagner are located in the Yakima country; Elder F. D. Starr and Brethren J. A. Standage and C. J. Rider are on the Nez Perces Reservation; Elder W. H. Saxby and Brother O. K. Butler will hold tent-meetings somewhere in the Grande Ronde Valley. It is expected that Elder L. A. Gibson will join this tent company. Elder H. J. Schnepper and Brother C. F. Knott will hold tent-meetings among the Germans in this conference. Plans have been laid for a series of tent-meetings in Spokane.
