She tllon announced herself rs q prophet of
the coming woman III tho Church Of tho Future
Tho time was drawing near when woman
would occupy the pulpit and every othor olllco
in tho church. Tho Church Of tlo Future would
not be altogether mans church; tho voice Of
woman would bo heard. This would bo only
right. for the inspiration Of God ca,uo to woman
as we'll ns man.

Tho Rov. s. s. Hunting, scc1etasy Of tho
Western Conference, also spoke encouragingty
on the outlook, aud referred to the difficulty Of
getting young mon to engage in missionary
| work. This WIS due to tho fact TINT tloro was
no money to pay living expenses.
The Noy. MIR. Powell, Of Valparaiso, aaid ho
know tho truth OF that better than anybody, Ho
wont through WISCONSIN on preachiug
to suffer financially while he was gone. A mia-
Blonary could do nothing OH IN empty stomach,
and the fact TINT his wife and ohldron woro in
need Of clothing aud other necessalics OF life
was not calculated to mid nun in religious
work. It WAS all very we'll to talk about nouu-
taiu-topa And inoffable Joy mud other B1,rond-
eagle ulattorB when mnn got So, QUO or $40, 600

The Rev. robert Collyor aaid ho believed ia
oyery word tho former spoakor Ind said. IIo

ody for It. however. If the poor preacher, who
through he would got them. little "cieek"
wonld aid them in this work.
Tho 1lov. Laird Collier said he ]lad done bet
tor work when he was getting only $50 a yoar.
Ho could apeak thon hotter than he can now
when lo wAs getting $4,000. ua did not know
why his congregation paid him 30 much. Ifo
had not asked for it, and supposed ho would
him. He believed tho people would always Lay
when tlloy could afford it. lie had boon ofTorod
$1,000 per nllnAm three yearB ago, but utterly
fofl1soq to take it, hGInllHo h0 did not think lO
was honestly worth 1t. Ho believed tho money
would bo forthcoming 1t tho disposition to work
and speak tho Word oxiuted.
Tho lloy. @. W. Wondto gave some interesting
porsoiRi experiences Oil preacher, which cro-
atod considerable morriment.
Tho Rev. blr. Hunting again spoke on tho
financial question. Young olergymon should
not be expected to work without motioy enough
to pay their living exronBoh It would not to
Just to ask them to trayol On tlloir own money.
lie Tor QUO would bo willing to douato percont-
ago Of hia nalary to tho support Of those mia-
HionaricH.
The lov Mr.. Powell said ho did not want tho
delegates to 90 away with tho impression that
ho was unable to support his family. lIo simply
wanted to illustrate tho dit.Icu!ies which boBot
tho missionary In hia struggles for tho good of
tho church.
Tho Rev. Robert Colyer sald l,e would hold to
hlH original belief, tllat tho people woul nav A
nau just whAt he WINS worth, a!ltl until tIat
time calno ho would have to exercise aonle
"cAook.'
