FIVE members have been added to the church at Fergus Falls, Minn.

TWO Germans and several others have decided for the truth at St. Cloud, Minn.

AT the last quarterly meeting of the Collins Center (N. Y.) church four persons were baptized.

JULY 15 a church of fifteen members was organized at Wheelock, N. D. One young sister was baptized.

TWELVE persons have been baptized at Richville, N. D., the result of labor since the Bowden camp-meeting.

ELDER JOHN F. JONES reports the baptism of five persons after a series of meetings in the tent at Double Creek, Md.

SIXTEEN were baptized on a recent Sabbath as the result of the tent effort at Paducah, Ky., and later a church of twenty-two members was organized. Additions to this number are confidently expected.

AT the close of the North Side (Chicago) camp-meeting some of the tents were left standing, and about fifty persons remained to assist in the after meeting. Since the close of the camp-meeting twenty have been baptized, and a number of others are keeping the Sabbath.

BROTHER LEE S. WHEELER reports success attending the meetings at the Boston tent. He says: “We are working hard publicly and from house to house. Quite a number have begun to keep the Sabbath with us, and to-night (August 5) others, both men and women, took their stand.”

BRETHREN H. C. HURTWELL and A. E. Sanderson are meeting with success in the tent effort at Athol, Mass., and a number have decided to observe the Sabbath. Three issues of a small four-page paper have been put out, containing a synopsis of subjects and other matter pertaining to the tent work.

ON Sabbath, August 4, a church of thirteen members was organized at Pittsfield, Mass. Some of these have been obeying present truth for several years, while others have begun the observance of the true Sabbath since Brother F. W. Stray went there to labor last fall. On the following day three were baptized.

BROTHER W. M. ADAMS writes that the Manitoba Conference has four tents in the field this summer: Brethren McGill and Hall are at Manitou; Brethren Kunkel, Peters, and Kurtz (German tent company) at Winnipeg; Brethren Conway and Curtis at Regina, Saskatchewan; and Brethren Adams and Potter at Winnipeg. Others are assisting in these tent-meetings in music, visiting, children’s meetings, etc.
