The Work in Oakland.

THERE was never a time before when there was so great interest in the truth, in this city, as there is at present. Many are studying and inquiring for light on the subject of the Sabbath, and of the Lord's near coming. Last Sabbath three more were baptized, one who has been for some time a member of the Sabbath-school and an employe in the office, and two who have recently embraced the faith. And another application for membership and baptism was made.
The interest in the Sabbath-school is excellent. Last Sabbath the attendance of regular members of the school was 94 per cent., while visitors brought it up to about the number enrolled. Considering how widely the members are scattered over this large city, such attendance is highly commendable.
