ALPENA AND MUSKEGON.—From June 13-23 a local camp-meeting was held at the first-named place. As there are but few churches in that part of the State, not many of our brethren were present, but the attendance from the city was excellent. Almost every evening the tent was well filled, and a good interest manifested. Dr. Frank Otis, of the Battle

Creek Sanitarium, was at this meeting a few days, and presented the health principles. Brethren Guild and Lewis, assisted by two efficient Bible workers, remain here to develop the interest.

As I had not been home for two months, I came to Muskegon to hold the quarterly meeting with my home church. I was here over one Sabbath and Sunday. On the Sabbath the ordinances were celebrated, and the Lord came near. I had the privilege of burying five precious souls with their Lord in baptism, in Lake Michigan. It was a beautiful scene, and one long to be remembered by those present. B. F. STUREMAN.

SHEBOYGAN.—I have labored at this place about six weeks, and find the people friendly, but, as at nearly all the shore towns, little inclined to be religious. The attendance is not large, but four have decided to go with us to the kingdom. To the Lord be all the praise. O. SOULE.
