Washington, D. C.

By J. S. Washburn

THERE is such a large number of donations this week to be recorded that we are unable to publish the entire list. A partial list, however, amounts to over $80,000. This does not include the large and growing sum which has come into the fund as the result of the “surprise party” arrangement in which all our churches have been making a united and determined effort to close up the One Hundred Thousand Dollar Fund at once. We feel assured that if our people will continue until the close of this conference, the $100,000 will be realized. A large amount also, which will be reported more fully later, has been given to the work of foreign missions. The Lord is at work in a most substantial way among his people. Not a mere excitement, but real devotion and a determination that knows no yielding, are coming into the hearts of our people, not only to complete the work in Washington, but that, as far as God gives us a place in his message, the mystery of God shall be speedily finished, as he hath declared by his servants the prophets.
