FROM DENMARK.

A PRIVATE letter from Elder O. A. Olsen, president of the General Conference, written at Fredrickshavn, Denmark, under date of September 20, states that the school buildings in that place are finished. They are plainly built, but well adapted for the purpose designed, and the brethren in the Scandinavian countries are well pleased with them and their location. The institute in session there at the time was prosperous and interesting, Elder Waggoner giving two hours' instruction a day in Bible work, and Elder Olsen instructing and counseling with reference to the work generally, especially in the establishment not only of the school at Fredrickshavn, but schools in other places in connection with our churches.

Laborers from the three Scandinavian countries were present, as well as from Finland. We are sure that the labors and experience of Elder Olsen will be greatly appreciated by our brethren there and will be a great help in starting the work on a proper basis. The needs of some of these new enterprises have kept him in Europe longer than he at first designed. He expected at the writing of his letter to reach New York October 10.
