OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

By Editor

THE Texas camp-meeting will be held at Handley, July 24 to August 3.

BROTHER JOHN F. JONES reports three converts to the faith at Oxford, Md.

JUNE 23 twelve candidates were baptized and united with the church at Omaha, Neb. Brother W. B. Hill administered the ordinance.

FROM various sources there comes good news of the Summer School at Berrien Springs, Mich., the attendance being about three hundred.

DURING the recent camp-meeting at Galt, Ont., twenty-five persons were baptized. The Messenger says that nearly three thousand persons witnessed the ceremony.

BROTHER J. E. FULTON, who has been doing efficient work in the Fiji Islands for several years, is to be transferred to New Zealand, to labor among the Maoris. Brother C. H. Parker, who has labored for some time in Tasmania, goes to Fiji.

THE Record, organ of the Southwestern Union Conference, says that "new Sabbath-schools are springing up all over the country. The demand for quarterlies is so great that, altho we increase our standing order each quarter, we always run short."

AMONG the resolutions passed by the Pennsylvania Conference, at its recent session, was the following: "Resolved, That we recognize the value and importance of the Sentinel of Christian Liberty in a substantial way, by giving it an opportunity to accomplish its mission in our State."

AT the recent session of the Pennsylvania Conference, held at Johnstown, Brother R. A. Underwood was re-elected president; I. N. Williams, vice-president, and W. M. Lee, secretary and treasurer. Mrs. W. M. Lee was chosen Sabbath-school secretary. Six tent companies are at work in the State.

THE Echo Publishing Co., of Melbourne, Australia, are about to establish a branch depository at Durban, Natal, South Africa. The field of operations from this point is to embrace Natal, Transvaal, and Orange River Colony, with Brother C. H. Pretzman as manager, and J. H. Camp as field agent.

WRITING to the Wisconsin Reporter from Hull, England, Brother Joseph Brandt says: "England is a field of opportunities and is white for the harvest. In the last nine months more souls have accepted the truth in England and in the entire European Conference, than in all previous time. Many souls have been saved and churches raised up by means of the paper, Present Truth, which is accomplishing a good work."

THE Bible Echo, published at Melbourne, Australia, is now under the editorial management of Brother E. W. Farnsworth. The new editor has had years of successful experience in the cause, throughout the United States, New Zealand, and Australia, and we expect that experience will be an efficient aid in greatly improving the messenger of truth over whose weekly preparation he has been called to preside. May the Echo prove an effectual agent in the promulgation of the last message of mercy in the field it is designed to serve.
