This, the last of our local camp-meetings, was held from August 28 to September 2, on the banks of the Republican River, and from the first, was well attended. About one hundred and fifty of our people were camped on the grounds, and the citizens of Oxford and vicinity came in to the evening and Sunday services.
Elders Nelson, Brown, White, Anderson, and Leer were present, and spoke upon the truths of the message in such a practical manner as to leave permanent impressions upon the hearts of all.
Though the crops of southwestern Nebraska have been a failure this season, the friends of the truth still have unlimited faith in God and in the Third Angel’s Message, and contributed liberally for the advancement of the work.
Meetings were held daily in English, German, and Swedish. Sabbath morning the Lord wrought for the deliverance of some who were bound, and four were baptized Sunday morning; others deferred, as they wished to be baptized at home.
All united in saying that this was the best camp-meeting they had ever attended, and went to their homes with a strong determination to live nearer to God and accomplish more in his service.
One encouraging feature of this meeting was the interest manifested by the young people, quite a number of whom will actively engage in the work this winter, either as canvassers or church-school teachers. A deep interest was shown in the sale of Sister White’s book for the relief of the schools.

— Alfred Beit, of South Africa, is conceded to be the richest man in the world. He went to Kimberley at the age of twenty-two, twenty-four years ago, and, with Cecil Rhodes, formed the great diamond trust, which, under the name of DeBeers, practically controls the output of precious stones in the world. His fortune is estimated at a billion dollars.
— David Whipple, of Traverse City, Mich., who attended the recent reunion in Chicago, is the oldest member of the Grand Army of the Republic. Mr. Whipple was 100 years old March 1. The greater part of his life has been spent in the far West, as scout, guide, and hunter, and, though he has had enough excitement to wear out almost any man, he is still hale and hearty.
— A Baltimore paper has information from Rome to the effect that a rule is to be made to have the order of the Knights of Columbus, a popular new Catholic organization, suppressed by the Vatican. The order is charged with being a secret organization, and for that reason it is to be brought under the ban. As is well known, the Vatican has an inveterate hatred of all secret societies except its own and the Jesuit society.622

— Latest reports would seem to indicate that at least 5,000 persons were killed in the Galveston (Tex.) disaster. It is stated that, although the storm “had been raging in the Gulf for several hours, and although warnings had been sent from Washington to Galveston the day before, by the officials of the United States Weather Bureau, no attention was paid to them.”
— It is now suspected that Russia and Germany have “some prearranged plan for the settlement of the Chinese problem, in which the other Powers are not to have a hand.” The Russians, it is asserted, practice their usual methods in Peking. Not only have they been filling the city with their troops, but have further sought to hoodwink the other Powers, and to ingratiate themselves with the Chinese by secretly agreeing to treat with Prince Ching, who has arrived at the capital.
— The state of the public mind in Rome was well illustrated, says the Christian Advocate, when the news was published there of the safe return of the expedition from the search for the north pole. A crowd gathered in the Place Colonna, sang the royal hymn, and cried, “Long live Savoy!” The duke’s name is Prince Luigi Amedeo, of Savoy-Aosta. They also cried, “Long live the king!” Some clerical students, who were passing from a church meeting, cried, “Long live the pope-king!” The crowd replied, “Long live the king!” and, “Down with the priests!” A fight followed, in which several of the students were wounded.
— Poggenpohl, a member of the Russian Geographical Society, accompanied by two officers and a number of soldiers, ascended the Great Ararat Mountain, September 2. “The Ararat Mountains, consisting of the Great Ararat and the Little Ararat, whose summits are about seven miles apart, are situated in Armenia, and form the point of contact of Russia with Turkey and Persia, to each of which they partly belong.” The summit of the Great Ararat is 17,260 feet above sea level, and 14,320 feet above the plain of Arras. The upper three miles of the mountain are covered with perpetual snow and ice. The top of the Great Ararat was first reached Oct. 9, 1829, by Professor Parrot.
— President Kruger, “Oom Paul,” has “resigned the presidency and fled from the Transvaal.” A dispatch to the London Times, dated at Lorenzo Marquez, September 12, says: “President Kruger, of the Transvaal Republic, together with Auditor-General Marais and staff, with the archives, and Grobler, under-secretary for foreign affairs, arrived here last night. They came in a special train, which did not enter the station, but was shunted to a siding adjacent to the house of G. Potts, the Transvaal consul. Treasurer General Malherbe is expected to-night. President Steyn is reported to be returning to the Orange River Colony.” Kruger, it seems, has “obtained a six-months’ leave of absence, Schalkburger acting in his stead.”
— The Peking correspondent of the Daily Telegraph says: “As the allies were leaving the forbidden city, August 28, bands of Russians and other civilians, with soldiers, overran the imperial apartments, forced drawers and doors, and looted everything portable. The British officers compelled several civilians to disgorge.”
TO MISSIONARY CANVASSERS.
By John B. Greenwood
It has seemed to the writer that the value of the Signs of the Times as an adjunct to the book-canvassing work has never been appreciated, except by the very few who have tried it. Some of our canvassers have a horror of anything in the way of “helps,” but this is because they do not appreciate the worth of “helps,” when properly used,—when used so as to be really helpful,—helpful not only to the canvasser, but to the cause he is laboring to advance.
The Signs was established to do a specific work. There is urgent need in the world to-day of a publication calling attention to the signs of our times, proclaiming their true meaning in the light of God’s prophetic word; and now there is everywhere a demand for literature helpful to an understanding of the great problems which confront the world, and which all recognize as portending some crisis in earth’s history. The circulation of the Signs of the Times is a direct and powerful work for the advancement of God’s truth for these times.
The canvasser, going from house to house and talking with the people concerning the great truths of God’s word, will have many opportunities to introduce the Signs incidentally, without detriment to his book work. For instance, we have met many persons who, although deeply interested in the subject of present truth, could not be induced to subscribe for a book; and often the introduction of the Signs resulted in securing a subscription for that paper. Then, too, when stopping overnight in the country, the conversation naturally turns to the topics of the day and the truths brought to view in the publications that the worker is selling. By showing the Signs, and explaining the nature and scope of the periodical, many families will be found who would welcome its weekly visits. Very probably a three- or six-months’ subscription would be gladly accepted in exchange for lodging or a meal. If the canvasser, looking back over his territory, can see homes here and there into which he has been instrumental in placing this “pioneer” missionary, he can rest assured that the influence of those labors will not cease immediately, nor will the books sold be placed carefully on the shelf, or lie untouched on the parlor center table. The Signs, presenting present truth in ever new and varying forms, and from different writers and standpoints, coming weekly into the homes of the people, will awaken in its readers a desire to study the Word, and to read carefully the books they have purchased; and so, by the blessing of God, the work of the canvasser will be “bound off,” and will yield a harvest of souls.
To show that this can be done, I will quote from a letter just received from a canvasser in Illinois:—
“I, with some other canvassers, was taking orders for ‘Desire of Ages’ and other books; and we concluded to take orders for the Signs of the Times also; so please accept the following yearly subscriptions.”
The letter inclosed eight subscriptions. This was the first order from these canvassers; and, as you will gather from reading the letter, they were led out to engage in this work on their own responsibility. Or, rather, shall we not say that the Lord influenced their minds to take up the work, in order that souls in that field might receive the truth? We think so. Other canvassers in different parts of the field, unsolicited by us, have been led to take up this work; and, believing it is in the order of the Lord, we make an appeal to all our canvassers to be on the lookout to secure new readers for the Signs. The special prices made to workers, also makes the paper a real “help” financially to those in the field. Write to the Signs of the Times, Oakland, Cal., for particulars. JOHN B. GREENWOOD.
HEALDSBURG COLLEGE DEBT.
By M. E. Cady
Healdsburg College, as most of our other educational institutions, is heavily encumbered with debt. This debt amounts to about forty thousand dollars. During the last year the board of trustees and the faculty have endeavored to do what they could to interest our brethren and sisters in the district in the work of lifting the indebtedness of the college. At the annual camp-meeting a year ago, this matter was taken up in a vigorous way, and about twelve thousand dollars was received in money and pledges. At local camp-meetings held in the State, the amount was increased to nearly twenty-two thousand dollars. This is to be paid in annual payments during the next three years. The board, faculty, ministering brethren, Bible workers, and, in fact, all our laborers, took hold of this work in earnest, and most of them gave a month's wages each year for the next three years.
This effort on the part of the brethren and sisters to help liquidate the college debt has also had an influence on public interest in the college work. Without any special effort during vacation, a larger number of students were in school last year than for seven or eight years preceding. The enrollment reached two hundred and fifty. When our people show enough interest in our institutions to help them out of their embarrassing condition, they will certainly have an interest in the work of education. It will be realized that the institution does not belong to the college board and the few teachers who are connected with the school, but it belongs to all who are in the district.
The college is the child of the district in which it is situated, and should receive the careful thought and attention that a true parent gives to a child who has made mistakes and blunders. It should not be disowned, but should be admonished, counseled, and encouraged to try to do better in the future.
This year at the annual camp-meeting in San Jose, June 5–17, the attention of our people was again called to the college interests. The plan that Sister White has in mind to relieve our educational institutions from indebtedness was presented to our brethren and sisters, and was heartily indorsed. Thirteen hundred copies of “Christ's Object Lessons” were subscribed for, and this number has been increased at one of the local camp-meetings, held since the State meeting. We expect many copies will be subscribed for at the three or four local meetings yet to be held in different parts of the State.
It is planned that, as soon as the camp-meetings are over, each church in our district be visited, and our brethren and sisters urged to subscribe for all the copies that they feel able to buy. After this work has been thoroughly done among our people in the different churches, then we shall send out canvassers. During the next school year a canvassers' school will be carried on in connection with the regular college work. The California State agent will have charge of the canvassing department. We shall endeavor to enlist the interest of the students in “Christ's Object Lessons,” and give them a thorough training, so that they can do good work with this book during the summer vacation. We believe that hundreds of books can be disposed of by the students in this way. Not only will the college be blessed financially, but the spirit of canvassing will be revived in the hearts of our students, and the experience gained in this work will better qualify them for whatever work the Lord may call them to do.
We thank the Lord for his kind remembrance of the needs of the educational work, and desire to work in harmony with the plan that he has given for relieving our educational institutions. May the Lord bless these plans as they are put into execution, and revive in the hearts of his people a deeper love for the principles of Christian education, and a spirit of greater loyalty to the work of God in all its phases.

WITH ONLY A YEAR’S EXPERIENCE.
By A. O. Tait
In a recent number of the REVIEW we gave a report from a brother residing in Tennessee, who told how he was disposing of three hundred copies of the Signs of the Times each week. It will be remembered that this brother had been in the truth only about one year.
We are just in receipt of another letter from a brother residing in Pennsylvania, who tells us that he has been in the truth only about a year, and a club of one hundred and eighty Signs is sent him each week from this office. He writes that he is using twenty copies of Hausfreunds, and ten REVIEWS besides. We quote the following from his letter:—
“These Signs represent so many visits to persons in this city, answering questions to those inquiring, speaking to those who wish to know the truth, reading and praying with those that are sick, holding Bible readings with those that will welcome the words read. Usually a house will be opened to me, and those of the neighbors who are interested will come. So the Lord has given me a great work to do. I have been in the truth now about one year. The Lord brought me through the Red Sea in regard to working; but as soon as I fully trusted the Lord to verify his promises in me, he gave me work.”
“Now I work five days in the week, keep the Sabbath according to the commandment, and on the first day of the week I work for Christ with the Signs and our other papers, and in the evenings, hold’ Bible readings. So my life is a busy one. Praise the Lord for it. I want to warn all I can; for when I look at this great city, I think of what would befall it were Jesus to come now. I realize that if I fail to warn all I can, the blood of souls will be upon me. Pray that the Lord will bestow upon me the gift of the Spirit, that I may be faithful in the work he gives me to do.”
Such a communication as this is indeed most inspiring. When a brother can have regular work for five days in the week, and go out on Sunday and dispose of two hundred and ten copies of our periodicals, hold Bible readings, and do visiting besides, it shows a zeal that is set on fire by the definite knowledge that the end of all things is right at hand, and the coming of the Lord is nigh, even at the very doors. Do not such things as this fill our brethren and sisters who are doing practically nothing, with a desire to go into the great harvest field and labor for the Master? We may not be able to do very much to-day; but, as we improve the talents that God gives us, he has promised that these talents will be increased. And so we need not be surprised, when once we have entered upon the work, to find ourselves doing things that at the outset we regarded impossible.
The world’s great harvest time is at hand. The workers are in the field. Who will go to work, and, through the circulation of our literature, by missionary visiting, or any other way possible, seek to gather souls for the heavenly garner?

STILLMAN.—Died at Manhattan, Kan., Sept. 7, 1900, Dr. Wm. H. Stillman, aged 81 years, 8 months. He was for years an observer of the Sabbath as a Seventh-day Baptist, but later became a member of the Seventh-day Adventist church at Manhattan. We laid him away to await the coming of the Life-giver. I. A. Crane.
SCUDDER.—Died at Cortland, N. Y., Aug. 31, 1900, Mrs. Hannah M. Scudder, aged 86 years. Sister Scudder has been a devoted Christian and consistent Sabbath-keeper for over twenty years.

DEWITT.—Died at his home in Findlay, Ohio, July 20, 1900, Henry Harrison Dewitt, aged 32 years, 13 days. In 1896 he united with the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and has since lived a noble Christian life.

COLLIS.—Died at Soquel, Cal., June 24, 1900, of paralysis, George Collis, aged 84 years, 6 months. My husband was born in England, and about twelve years ago he heard and accepted the Seventh-day Adventist faith, under the preaching of Elder H. A. St. John. Words of comfort and hope were spoken by Elder Geo. Snyder, from 1 Thess. 4:13-18. He sleeps in Jesus. Mrs. G. A. Collis.
CRAM.—Died at New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, May 19, 1900, of pneumonia, James Cram. My father accepted the truth at the time of Elder Farman’s tent-meetings in this place, and has been a faithful Sabbath-keeper for three years. We were the only Sabbath-keepers in this city, and consequently have no elder or church. The funeral services were conducted by the Methodist minister. M. L. Cram.
BOARDMAN.—Died at Bowling Green, Ohio, Sept. 4, 1900, Melissa, beloved wife of J. J. Boardman, aged 66 years, 3 months, 8 days. In 1874 Sister Boardman, with her husband and children, joined the Seventh-day Adventist Church. After a severe illness of over twelve months, she fell asleep with a bright hope. She leaves three sons and two daughters to mourn her death. The funeral services were conducted by the writer. E. J. Van Horn.
RING.—Died at her home in North Brewer, Ind., June 14, 1900, of dropsy, Mrs. H. A. Ring, aged 72 years, 10 days. Sister Ring, whose maiden name was Hannaford, was well known in this State. Her parents were intimately associated with Elders James White, Joseph Bates, and J. N. Loughborough in pioneer work, and she herself, converted at the age of twelve, has lived a consistent Christian life and kept the Sabbath for over forty years. Her home was always a resting-place for God’s servants. She was a constant reader of the REVIEW, and was the happy possessor of one of its first issues. Throughout her long illness she bore testimony to the sustaining grace of God, and found great comfort in repeating the Psalms over and over. When death’s shadows deprived her of sight and hearing, she exclaimed, “In Him is light.” A husband and four stepchildren, with a large circle of sorrowing friends, mourn their loss. Funeral services were conducted by Elder H. W. Basney. A. F. Clark.
BROWN.—Richard Brown was born in White County, Tenn., Aug. 4, 1822, and died at Healdsburg, Cal., Aug. 30, 1900. For nearly sixty years Brother Brown had led an exemplary Christian life. His connection with the Seventh-day Adventist Church dated back about twenty years, during which time he had served continuously as an elder of the church at Ferndale, Cal. He had cherished the hope of living to see the second coming of Jesus, but his life was cut suddenly short. He was kicked by a horse, Thursday, August 30, suffered severe internal injuries, and fell asleep a few hours later, his last voluntary statement being, “Bless the Lord.” His aged wife and large family of children mourn their loss. Funeral services were held from the residence of his son-in-law, Elder N. C. McClure, formerly president of the California Conference, and with whom Brother Brown was temporarily residing. He has been taken away from the evil to come, but his works follow to bless the lives of others. C. L. Taylor.
