A Note to the German Brethren and Sisters in Wisconsin

By C. J. HERRMANN

PLEASE take notice that the annual camp-meeting for 1904 will be held at Oshkosh, Wis., from August 30 to September 12.

Come to this annual gathering. Bring a cheerful spirit along with you by letting Jesus dwell in your hearts. Come with the intention of helping your brothers rise and leading them to Jesus, for by so doing you will receive a great blessing in having had a part in the work.

Let us pray that the Lord may prepare us for service. Let every one come to help souls make Jesus their personal Saviour, and the Lord will make this meeting the best ever held in Wisconsin. “And be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the Lord, and work: for I am with you, saith the Lord of hosts.” Haggai 2:4.

Let us make a special effort for the German people. Let all Germans be at all the meetings held in their tent. Let them come up to the help of the Lord against the mighty,

Let the singers be in their places when the meetings open. Let the praise of our God be sounded out with singing.

The committee will do all in its power to make this tent attractive and pleasant. May the Lord add his blessing, is my prayer.

C. J. HERRMANN.

Current Mention

— A fire at Millington, Md., July 12, destroyed property to the value of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and left two hundred people homeless and destitute.

— A dispatch dated at Sydney, New South Wales, July 12, reports the wreck of the steamer “Nemesis” in a gale off the Australian coast, with the loss of thirty-one lives.

— A dispatch from Manila reports a cloudburst in the hills northeast of that city, causing a flood which drowned two hundred people, and destroyed property to the extent of two million dollars.

— Among noted persons who have died the past week are Major Samuel M. Jones of Toledo, commonly known as “Golden Rule” Jones, whose death occurred July 12; and “Oom Paul” Kruger, president of the late Transvaal republic, who died at Clarens, Switzerland, July 14, from an attack of pneumonia. Mr. Kruger’s body will be buried in the Transvaal.

— An agitation for the discontinuance of Sunday work on public improvements in the District of Columbia, has been started by women of the Forest Glen Presbyterian church. Sunday work is being done on the new railway station, the Pennsylvania railway tunnel, and the reservoir. Contractors are quoted as saying that Sunday work is necessary in order to finish the work in contract time.

— A strike involving about sixty thousand men employed in the meat-packing industry in Chicago, St. Louis, Omaha, Kansas City, Fort Worth, and other Western cities, was begun July 12, to settle a controversy over wages between employers and the union. The cost of the strike is being largely paid by the public in the enhanced price of meat. Considerable rioting has attended the strike in Chicago, St. Paul, and Kansas City.

— But little reliable news has been received of late regarding the progress of events in the Russo-Japanese war, though rumors have been plentiful, among these being a report of Admiral Togo’s death, and of a great Japanese reverse at Port Arthur, with a loss to the latter of 30,000 men. It appears probable that the Japanese have been repulsed in a number of assaults on the fortifications at that place, with considerable loss. A naval battle off Port Arthur is also rumored, but with what result is not stated.

— A number of wrecks of railway excursion trains have occurred the past week, the most serious being at Midvale, N. J., July 10, and at Glenwood, Ill., July 13. At Midvale a regular passenger train ran into and telescoped the rear cars of an excursion train which had stopped to take water, seventeen persons being killed, and about fifty others injured. At Glenwood a picnic excursion train from Chicago ran into the rear of a freight train, twenty persons being killed and about twenty-five injured. At Labadie, forty-five miles west of St. Louis, July 10, a Missouri Pacific excursion train was thrown down an embankment by the derailing of the engine’s tender, thirty-eight persons being injured but none killed.

She was a noble, unassuming, faithful Christian mother, who lived to serve her family. Her end was painless. She sleeps in hope. Funeral services were conducted by the writer, assisted by Prof. G. W. Rine. M. C. W.

WALKER.—Died at the home of her parents, near Mountain View, Mo., April 23, 1904, Ellen G. Walker. She was born Sept. 14, 1879, and was married to John W. Walker Oct. 20, 1899. At the age of seventeen she united with the Seventh-day Adventist church at Omaha, Neb., and although her life was not always consistent with the faith, her last few months showed acceptance with God and a renewed love for his truth. She leaves parents, a husband, an adopted daughter, one brother, and three sisters to mourn their loss. Funeral services were conducted by the writer; text, John 11:35. W. A. THEO. MILLER.

WORTHEN.—Died at the home of her brother, S. W. Worthen, near Lynden, Wash., June 10, 1904, Ethel L. Worthen, in her twenty-fifth year. Sister Worthen was born in West Charleston, Vt., and came West three years ago because of ill health. At the age of sixteen she gave her heart to Jesus, and was baptized by Elder Wm. Covert. She desired a place in the work of the message, but that dreadful disease tuberculosis had laid its fatal hold upon her; and a little while before the time for her graduation from Walla Walla College, she had to leave school. It was hard for her to give up her cherished desire to labor in the Master’s vineyard, but she found his grace sufficient to enable her to give all into his hands. We laid her away in the full hope that when he comes for his jewels, she will be gathered with them. Funeral service was held by the writer. W. W. SHARP.

JEWELL.—Died of pneumonia, at her home in Grandville, Mich., June 17, 1904, Sister Anna Jewell, aged 28 years, 8 months, and 14 days. Anna was the daughter of Brother and Sister M. V. Taylor, who, with one brother and three sisters survive her. Sister Jewell’s Christian experience was limited to the last few days of her life. She then gave bright evidence of falling asleep in Jesus. She leaves a kind husband and one little boy, with many relatives and friends to mourn their loss. The funeral was held in the M. E. church in order to accommodate the large congregation that gathered for the occasion. The services were conducted by the writer, assisted by Elder W. D. Parkhurst, of Grand Rapids. W. OSTRANDER.

ADAMS.—Died at his home near Half Rock, Mercer Co., Mo., of cancer of the stomach, Brother Adams, aged 52 years. He was born in the State of Illinois and moved to Iowa with his parents in early boyhood. At the age of nineteen he accepted Christ as his Saviour, uniting with the Christian Church. He was united in marriage to Mary A. Evert. After hearing the truth presented by Brethren C. H. Chaffee and Woodruff, they united with the Seventh-day Adventist church at Half Rock, of which he was a member until his death. He leaves a wife, three sons, and two daughters to mourn their loss. He suffered greatly, but bore it patiently. Words of comfort were spoken by J. Padget (Disciple). J. L. HILL.

RANDILL.—Died at her home in Vermontville, Mich., June 3, 1904, Sophrona Randill, aged 74 years and 2 months. She was born in Virgil, N. Y., April 7, 1830. She came to Michigan in 1846, and moved to Vermontville in 1866, at which place she accepted the third angel’s message and joined the Seventh-day Adventist church. Although her bodily sufferings for several months were intense, she bore it all patiently, realizing that she must soon fall asleep to await the resurrection of the just. Of a family of eleven children, six boys and five girls, three sisters and one brother are still living. Words of comfort were spoken by Rev. Haynes, pastor of the Congregational church. The remains were laid to rest in the Woodlawn Cemetery. C. W. CRAPO.

AALBORG.—Died at her home near Viborg, S. D., May 17, 1904, Mrs. Sophia Aalborg, after an illness of five days. Sister Aalborg was born in Denmark, March 4, 1843; was married to C. J. Aalborg in 1861, and in 1866 they came to America, and settled at Racine, Wis., where she accepted Christ, and united with the Baptist Church. In 1873 they came to Dakota, and two years later accepted the truths of the third angel’s message, and united with the Seventh-day Adventist Church, of which she was a faithful member. Sister Aalborg realized that the end was near. She was the mother of eleven children, of whom three are asleep. Her faithful companion, two daughters, and six sons survive, mourning the loss of a dear companion and a loving mother, but not as those who have no hope. Funeral services were conducted by the writer, assisted by Brother J. W. Christian. C. A. BURMAN.

HALL.—Died at the residence of S. T. Black, Pittsford, Mich., June 17, 1904, Mrs. Stella F. Hall, nee Ingham, aged 23 years, 5 months, and 29 days. Sister Hall was one of the pioneer church-school teachers, having taught in Hillsdale and Shiawassee Counties, and she was buried from the church in a part of which she had taught acceptably four years ago, at Jefferson, Hillsdale County. About eight months ago Miss Ingham became the wife of Brother Irving Hall, and as trouble with the lungs became apparent, the young couple sought relief and health in Colorado, but to no avail. About two weeks before her death she was brought back to Michigan, where friends kindly opened their doors to give a home to one who longed to be permitted to die among friends. The last few weeks were full of intense suffering, but this only served to make her hold on the Master more firm. A husband, father, brother, and other relatives survive. J. GRANT LAMSON.

Spokane Sanitarium Destroyed by Fire

By a letter from Elder A. J. Breed, the president of the Upper Columbia Conference, we learn that the sanitarium at Spokane, Wash., was destroyed by fire on the morning of July 7. No lives were lost, and no one was injured, but the building was burned to the ground. We have not received full particulars of the loss, and do not know whether the property was insured. We extend our hearty sympathy to the managers and workers who have been most directly connected with the Spokane institution, and hope that we may all be able to discern the meaning of these continued visitations of providence.
