SISTER E. G. WHITE spoke in the opera house at Auckland, N. Z., February 12 and 19, on the subjects of "God's Love for Our World" and "The Mission of Christ to Earth."

AS A result of a two weeks' series of meetings held by Elder L. R. Conradi with the church at Lehigh, Kansas, recently, about sixty persons united with the church. Forty-two were baptized at one time.

DURING the year ending March 31, 1893, the church in this city received 51 members, and 16 were granted letters to other churches, while death removed two. Since that date seven more letters have been granted. Present membership, 427.

THE Review says: "Since January 1 of the present year, 47 have been baptized in the Tabernacle and have united with the Battle Creek church. Many others have been baptized here during this time, to unite with churches in other places."

A CLASS of about sixty are attending the canvassers' institute at Healdsburg, Cal., which is being conducted by Brother F. L. Mead, general canvassing agent. It is not expected that all of these will engage in canvassing, but they are profiting by the opportunity to study the books.

THE Illinois Tract Society building, 26 and 28 College Place, Chicago, is now in the possession of the Seventh-day Adventist Medical Missionary and Benevolent Association. It will be opened up as a Sanitarium May 1. Board and treatment can be secured, but only a limited number of rooms. The board of managers have appropriated a liberal sum to the erection of a building on the World's Fair grounds in which will be held a school of scientific cookery. In the Liberal Arts building, an exhibit of health foods will be made, and orders taken for our health publications.
