Field Notes
BROTHER J. W. CHRISTIAN says in a recent letter from Viborg, S. D.: “Last Sabbath, May 13, was spent at Ladelle, in company with Brother E. G. Hayes, where a church was organized with fifteen members. We rejoice that the work is onward here in Dakota.”
BROTHER W. L. BRANDON reports from Houston County, Tex.: “On closing meetings at Neches, I went to some brethren near Ratcliff, and started a few days’ meetings, with the result that two began keeping the Sabbath for the first time, and one brother who had been a backslider for a number of years took a new stand for the truth; and some who were using tobacco resolved to quit, to stay quit, and all resolved to begin paying tithes. From there I went to a schoolhouse not far away, and began holding meetings, with the result that all or part of six families have taken a stand for the Sabbath, making twelve adults who have accepted present truth since the meeting closed at Neches.”
The Washington Training College
THE following resolutions were adopted by the constituency of this institution at the first annual meeting held during the recent conference:—
Whereas, It has seemed good to the Lord to direct that a school be established at this place; and,—
Whereas, Substantial advancement has been made in carrying out this instruction under circumstances that have been peculiarly favorable; therefore,—
Resolved, That we express our appreciation of the mercy and blessing bestowed upon us, both in the work of construction and in operating the school during the brief session recently closed.
Whereas, A definite and positive work has been assigned to the Washington Training College in the education and training of young men and women, preparatory to entering the work of the gospel message, and,—
Whereas, Instruction has been given by the servant of the Lord that the school must be thoroughly equipped for carrying out the work assigned it, and,—
Whereas, The buildings now erected are inadequate for the accomplishment of this end; therefore,—
Resolved, That the work of erecting a college building be undertaken at once, and pushed to completion as rapidly as funds will permit.
Whereas, The Washington Training College has been established to educate men and women, and not children; therefore,—
Resolved, That the moral support and earnest co-operation of the College be extended to the Takoma church in the establishment of a suitable church-school for the accommodation of the youth and children of parents who are brought here to carry forward the work now being established.
Whereas, The Washington Training College has been established to train missionaries for work in all parts of the world, and,—
Whereas, The College offers superior advantages because of its location at the headquarters of our work where the students have the advantage of constant association with those who are shaping the policy of the denominational work, and of meeting missionaries who are passing to and from their fields; therefore,—
Resolved, That we ask the co-operation of the leading brethren in the various conferences to use their influence in sending to us young men and women of experience and promise who can receive a speedy preparation for greater usefulness in the cause.

North Dakota Camp-Meetings
INSTEAD of a general camp-meeting this year it is designed to hold two local ones, the first at Goodrich, June 26 to July 3, for the benefit of our German brethren, and the few English living south and west of that place, and the second at Towner, McHenry County, July 11-17. The latter meeting is for the benefit of the English and Scandinavians in the northern part of the State.
We hope to find both meetings well attended; in fact, we expect a larger attendance than heretofore, as some have accepted the truth since our last meetings, and others have moved into the State.
J. G. WALKER, Pres.
NOTICES AND APPOINTMENTS
Current Mention
— Strong hopes for peace between Russia and Japan are now entertained in this country and in Europe, and to President Roosevelt belongs the credit of bringing about the present hopeful situation, he having addressed a note to each of the belligerent powers suggesting that the two governments open negotiations with each other for the purpose of ending the war. It is stated that Russia has agreed to an indemnity in the terms of peace which Japan may exact, and that if Japan's terms are not too severe, the present negotiations will bring an end of hostilities. Meanwhile the czar is subjected to very strong pressure at home by a message from a representative body including many men of high rank, sent from Moscow, the headquarters of the organization, demanding that steps be taken at once to end the present bureaucratic government, and institute representative government in its place.
— The political union between Norway and Sweden, which has existed since 1814, was severed by Norway, June 7, so that Norway is now an independent state. The Norwegian Storthing passed a resolution setting forth the reasons for this action, as follows: "Whereas, All the members of the council of state have laid down their offices; Whereas, his majesty the king has declared himself unable to establish a new government for the country; and, Whereas, The constitutional regal power thus becomes inoperative, the Storthing authorizes the members of the council of state, who retired to-day, to exercise, until further notice, as the Norwegian government, the power appertaining to the king, in accordance with Norway's constitution and existing laws, with those changes which are necessitated by the fact that the union with Sweden under one king is dissolved in consequence of the king's having ceased to act as a Norwegian king." The Norwegian government is prepared to defend its independence by force of arms if necessary.
— Some months ago there was a revival of Sunday legislation in Spain, and regulations were carried into effect which prohibited Sunday work and Sunday sports, among the latter being included the national pastime of bull-fighting. The discontinuance of these Sunday shows was a very unpopular proceeding, and drew forth many protests, not only from those with whom bull-fighting was a favorite form of amusement, but from the vast numbers who were dependent on the shows for employment. The opposition seems now to have triumphed over the law, for it is announced that Sunday bull-fights have been everywhere resumed, being authorized by the Council of State, at Madrid, on the ground that bull-fighting is an art, and the performers in the show are artists. Great enthusiasm is manifested by the populace everywhere, and at Madrid a record-breaking crowd, not half of whom could gain admission to the amphitheater, came to witness the initial exhibition. This mark of a decadent nation appears in Spain in spite of her national recognition of God and her stringent "Sabbath" laws.
Eastern Pennsylvania Conference
By W. J. Fitzgerald
NOTICE is hereby given that the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference will hold its second annual session in connection with the camp-meeting in the city of Lancaster, June 15-25. Officers will be elected, and other important business will be transacted.
Each church is entitled to one delegate for its organization, and one additional delegate for each ten members. A church of ten members should send two delegates; one of twenty members should send three delegates, etc. Let all the churches plan to send full delegations. We trust also that all members who possibly can will attend.
Able ministers of the Word will be provided by the General Conference. Everything will be planned to the end of making this conference and camp-meeting a real spiritual refreshing for all who may attend.
Will all intending to come be so kind as to inform V. H. Cook, 1809 Wallace St., Philadelphia, whether they desire to tent on the grounds or to occupy rooms? Those who send to office for card orders will be enabled23to procure reduced rates on the railroads. When applying for card orders, state how many are desired.
The usual dining and grocery tents will be operated. Expenses will be made as low as possible.

Camp-Meeting in Alberta
By J. W. Boynton
To all our brethren, sisters, and friends in Alberta, we desire to extend an urgent invitation to attend the camp-meeting to be held at Wetaskiwin, July 4-10. Elder Underwood and others have promised to attend, and we are looking forward to a good meeting.
We have a few tents to rent, but not enough for all, so we ask those who can bring tents with them to do so. We shall have a book stand, where literature can be obtained.
We hope to make this meeting a success, and a blessing to all, by laying hold on the promises of God, by faith. We are sure God will meet with and bless his people. Let all come who can. Bring the children, and let us seek God together.

U. P. LONG.
HOPKINS.— Died at her youngest daughter's, Mrs. A. P. Johnson, at Plum River, Ill., April 22, 1905, Margaret Wick Hopkins, aged 91 years, 3 months, and 8 days.

She leaves four daughters and four sons and many friends to mourn. She was buried at Gravity, Iowa, beside her husband and daughter.
MRS. A. E. RATHBUN.
CLARK.— Died at Ukiah, Ore., March 31, 1905, Sister Della Clark, wife of Brother Ralph Clark, aged 41 years, 2 months, and 17 days. In 1898, with her husband, she accepted present truth, and afterward led a quiet, faithful life. Three years ago she was attacked with cancer. For one year she was a great sufferer, yet bore it patiently. She leaves a husband, five children, and a mother. The remains were taken to College Place, Wash., and the funeral was conducted by the writer, assisted by Prof. J. L. Kay.
W. F. MARTIN.
SEARCH.— Died at her home near Gadsden, Ala., May 2, 1905, Mrs. Lucy E. Search, aged nearly 57 years. She was converted at the age of fifteen, and became an active worker in the Master's service. She was among the first to joyfully accept the message of the soon coming of the Saviour and kindred truths presented in Fort Payne, Ala., in 1899. She suffered greatly during her last days, but with clear mind and unwavering faith looked forward to a part in the first resurrection. The loss is felt by husband, four children, five grandchildren, two sisters, and a large circle of friends.
C. J. DART.
DILLON.— Died in Eureka, Cal., March 17, 1905, of diabetes, Edith Z. Dillon, youngest daughter of Elder H. A. and Mrs. D. C. St. John, aged 26 years, 6 months, and 9 days. Our beloved daughter was a devoted, earnest, exemplary Christian, loved by all who knew her. Without doubt she died in the Lord, and now sleeps in Jesus, to awake in his likeness when he comes to call his children to immortal life and glory. She left one child, a bright little boy two years old. A true and devoted husband, a father, a mother, two brothers and sisters, together with many dear friends, look forward to a joyful greeting of our loved and lost one, when the Life-giver comes.
H. A. ST. JOHN.
HUSTED.— Lue Ina Husted, wife of G. W. Husted, died at their home in Fort Collins, Colo., May 9, 1905, aged 35 years, 1 month, and 9 days. In childhood she united with the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and continued a faithful member until her death. Her life was a beautiful one. She was a dutiful daughter, a loving wife, a patient mother, an earnest Christian. By her death a tender tie is broken, but her loved ones are comforted by the many promises to the faithful believers. A few days before her death, they buried an infant son. A dear little girl is left to mourn with her father and with the parents of the deceased. The funeral service was conducted by the writer.
WATSON ZIEGLER.
KIER.— Died at Spring Valley, S. D., May 1, 1905, of heart failure, Sister Minnie D. Kier, wife of Brother N. C. Kier. Sister Kier was born in Denmark, and came to this country in 1874. Three years later the truth of the third angel's message was brought to the home of her parents, and with them she accepted it. She was baptized and joined the Swan Lake church, of which she was a faithful and beloved member until death. Last January her health began to fail rapidly, and she went to the Nebraska Sanitarium, but the doctor gave no encouragement. All that loving hands could do was done for her, but she was beyond the power of human skill. Her hope of soon seeing Jesus was bright till the last. She leaves a devoted husband and six loving children, besides her aged parents, five brothers, and two sisters, and a large circle of friends, to mourn their loss, but they mourn not as those who have no hope. Services were held at the house and at the church by the writer.

Missionary Calls and Giving
AN article in the June number of The Missionary Review of the World is entitled “Money to the Rear.” In these days of strenuous appeals for large gifts it is interesting to note what an ex-treasurer of one of the Mission Boards has to say about it. A series of articles on “Missionary Call” presents different views of what it is, and how it is recognized. Miss Bell M. Brain takes up the subject from a Biblical standpoint; a missionary secretary describes an experiment in missionary calls, and D. L. Pierson gives the results of an inductive study of the calls of a large number of prominent missionaries. These articles are an interested contribution to a much-discussed subject.
Religious Instruction in Public Schools
THE policy of giving religious instruction in the public schools has no stronger support in any quarter than it has from Rome. Rome objects to the public schools in this country because religion is not taught in them, and demands separate schools, supported by public taxation, for Catholic pupils. The religion she desires taught in the schools is, of course, the Catholic religion. As showing Rome’s attitude on this question a Methodist journal mentions that “at the close of mass in the Catholic church at Vancouver, British Columbia, April 20, Bishop Dontenwell said that the pope had sent a message by him from Rome to ask his people to stand up for separate schools, and to have their children educated in separate schools. The statement caused much comment, owing to the heated controversy for and against government support of separate schools in northwestern Canada. The Vatican,” it adds, “is the school board controlling Roman Catholic parochial schools throughout the world. The pope will not only interfere in the school question in Canada, but he will do so in the United States. He claims that as his right.” Admit that religious instruction should be given in the schools, and the only ground of opposition to Rome that is left is the contention that the Protestant, and not the Catholic religion, is the proper religion to be taught. But assert the truly Protestant principle that no religion, either right or wrong, ought to be taught under the direction and control of the state, and Rome is at once deprived of her vantage-ground in the matter. Rome can not gain ground where the Protestant principle of the separation of church and state is maintained.
