BROTHER D. U. HALE reports three new Sabbath-keepers at Spain's Mill, Tex.

SIX adults were added to the company at Cotton, Mo., at the close of the week of prayer.

THE Alto church of eastern Texas, has recently had an increase of three in its membership.

AN increase of six in the membership of the church at Madge, Tex., is reported by Brother W. L. Adams.

BROTHER G. L. EDGERTON reports the baptism of three persons at Appleton City, Mo., on a recent Sabbath.

FIVE young people, ranging from thirteen to twenty-one years of age, received baptism recently at St. Peter, Minn.

THERE are now five families of Sabbath-keepers at Nacogdoches, Tex., among whom is the Baptist church clerk. The latter's acceptance of the truth has caused no small stir in that place.

THE work at Coudersport, Pa., is reported to be in a prosperous condition. Three have accepted the truth there since the week of prayer, and the annual offering of the church was double the amount given last year.

ELDER T. H. PAINTER writes us from West Virginia, under date of January 23: "I am holding meetings in the large school building in Hinton. The house was full last night with hearts eager to hear the message for our day. I have more calls to visit the people in their homes than I can fill. I hope to see some obey soon."

REPORTING from Senjen, Minn., Brother Geo. L. Budd says of his meetings there: "The dragon spirit is now manifest and has spoken, as they have closed the schoolhouse against us. But we shall go right on with our work in a store building that will be fitted up for us. The Lord has given us nine souls besides some young people. We have organized a Sabbath-school of twenty-two members, and our courage is good in the work."

SPEAKING of the fruits of the missionary campaign, has been a blessing to the H. S. Shaw says: "The special effort in November and December, in the missionary campaign, has been a blessing to the people in the Minnesota Conference. There are interests springing up in different parts of the State, and thus far we are not able to answer all the calls where there seems to be a real interest to hear the truth. Some good people are already beginning to keep the Sabbath. Three are reported at one place, five at another, one at another, six at another, nine at another, and at other places there are those who seem to be on the point of deciding for the truth. It looks as if a goodly number are going to make a start this winter in Minnesota, and of course this is encouraging to the laborers as well as to the brethren in the churches throughout the conference."
