OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

THE Wisconsin Reporter says: "It is reported that about twenty of the 'Oneidas' have decided to obey the truth, and that several of the young people desire to attend one of our schools."
SISTER BROWN, of Seattle, Wash., who sells 200 copies of the Signs weekly, has taken 1,000 copies of the World's Outlook Number. Two other sisters dispose of 200 copies of the Life Boat weekly.
SABBATH, October 27, eight candidates received baptism at Weldon, Iowa. About as many more are reported keeping the Sabbath as the result of meetings held in that vicinity the past summer.
EIGHT persons were baptized and twelve added to the Decatur, Ill., church on October 6. Brother E. A. Curtis, who reports the item for the Recorder, adds that a church school has also been started at that place.
OWING to the previous appointment of the Colorado Conference meeting to convene December 26, the week of prayer in that conference will be held December 18-23, instead of 22-29, as appointed by the General Conference Committee for the entire field.
SISTER LULU WIGHTMAN writes us that she has just finished a series of evangelical meetings in Vine Valley, Yates Co., N. Y., and as a result six souls accepted of the precious truth, making an aggregate of thirty in the Middlesex Valley since she began labor there.
OUR brethren in Illinois have established an Industrial School at Sheridan. Sheridan is a nice little village on the Fox River, about sixty-five miles southwest of Chicago. There are no saloons in the place, and the moral tone of the community is unusually good. A good corps of teachers has been provided for the school. Any one interested should drop a card to H. A. Washburn, Sheridan, Ill., asking for a catalog.
BROTHER H. H. WILCOX reports four persons baptized at South Russell, N. Y., recently.
IN the Dakota Worker, Brother Edward Leoppke reports the baptism of twelve persons and the organization of two Sabbath-schools in North Dakota. He also reports a good interest at Anamoose, in McLean County, and expects to organize a church there in the near future.
FROM the Wisconsin Reporter we learn that on Sabbath, November 3, four persons, all of West Superior, were baptized at Duluth; on October 6 four united with the church at Bethel, and the latter part of the same month four were baptized and united with the church at Grand Rapids.
JUST now California is unusually blessed with the presence of general laborers. In addition to Sister E. G. White and Brother W. C. White, who recently came from Australia, there are Brethren J. N. Loughborough and A. G. Daniells (also from Australia via the East). Brother W. T. Knox, superintendent of General Conference District No. 6, whose headquarters are in this city, is also here at the present time.
