A CHURCH of fourteen members was recently organized at Farmington, N. M.

BROTHER R. R. KENNEDY reports from Wheelersburg, Ohio, that five persons were baptized at that place, May 18, and three others are awaiting this ordinance.

THE company at Kokomo, Ind., have recently received eight additions to their number, as the result of a two weeks’ course of meetings held by Brother A. L. Miller.

BROTHER E. HILLIARD, of Minnesota, who is now laboring in Tasmania, in a recent letter to his Minnesota brethren says: “A fruit grower who lives a few miles from Launceston has furnished us with the finest of fruit for over two years and after purchasing of him from time to time, he was handed some of our literature. He became deeply interested, and a few days ago I rode out to his place on my bicycle, remaining with the family overnight. I held a Bible reading with them on the change of the Sabbath, the second coming of Christ, and the signs of the times. All of the family living at home accepted the truth, and the next Sabbath we organized a family Sabbath school. A Church-of-England minister living near him had previously accepted the truth, and so we arranged for them to meet together. This minister is quite wealthy, and expects to visit America in May. He wants to become acquainted with our people there, and learn more of our work and institutions.”
