OUR INDIA FAMINE FUND.

By Editor

DURING the past two weeks India and its suffering have been eclipsed by the Chinese war; but the suffering is not less intense, and the need is equally as great, as before the Chinese cloud obscured the horizon.

We are glad to be able to report still further names and gifts for the famine sufferers. Up to the present time the SIGNS has had the privilege of forwarding two drafts to W. A. Spicer, editor of the Oriental Watchman, at Calcutta, India. These were respectively for the sums of $1,000 and $700. We have not yet had time to obtain a receipt from Mr. Spicer, but it will doubtless come in due course of mail, and we will present it to our readers. The money has been forwarded through the Committee of One Hundred in New York, and by them cabled to India without expense.

Previously acknowledged, $1,611.45.
