The Pacific Coast.

The last Signs, from Oakland, brings encouraging reports of the work in that field.

The church in Dayton, W. T., have come up nobly to second the formation of the North Pacific Conference, raising the figures on their S. B., and entering heartily into the missionary work. Outside attendance and interest good.

At Vacaville, forty-six lectures have been given. Twelve or fourteen are now keeping the Sabbath, as the result, with “more to follow.” The clergy are going through the usual metamorphoses in their conflicting attempts to support the Sunday.

Bro. Wood and Rice report meetings in Lakeside, Cal., which have resulted in confirming believers and adding others to their number.

A card from Bro. M. G. Kellogg, M. D., states that, having secured a location two and a half miles from St. Helena, Cal., unsurpassed for a “Rural Health Retreat,” he is to commence immediately the erection of buildings suitable for the treatment of patients on the hygienic system.
