Home Missions.
The Forenoon Service at the North
 nhureh

 The Forenoon Service at the North
 Church.
 Home missions, according to previous no- tice, was the subject of the sermon yester- day forenoon by the Rev. Dr. Hawes. The 62d chapter of Isaiah was read in opening the services. The verses from the seventh, 'tHow beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth glad tidings that publisheth peace .. . that saith, unite Zion, thy God reigneth," te the last, the 18th verse, sounded as if now for the first tina spoken. 'Old, yet new" The text was Mark vi, 3d, "And Jesus when he came out" Cfrom the desert place), "saw much people and was moved with compassion toward them, be- cause they were as sheep not having shep- herd; and he began to teach them many things" Thus with compassion, said the pas tor, the Saviour looks upon all wanderers from God, and by his word and life on earth would lead them back to peace, safety and happiness in him To all real Christians comes the appeal of those in darkness and error to send them the gospel. This one, only unifying, saving power is the great need of our land to assimilate it's various peoples and to make it truly the home of the good and the free. Striking statistics of the growth of Dakota and the new West were given, showing increase unparalleled. This, our day and time, is the period most respon- sibIe and important in the worlds history. Mormonism, false religion and infidelity threaten our nations life. Our duty now must be done quickly.
 Yesterdays beautiful weather brought out full attendance. The Governors procla- nation was read. The contribution was 8 good one,

Sunday School Concert.

Exercises at Humphrey Street Church
 Last Evening-An Interesting Occa-
 sion.
 A correspondent, W. c. s., says: Among the happy things which go to make life pleas ant is the Sunday school concert, and the one given at Humphrey street Congregational church last evening was of particular inter est. Instructed and drilled by older children, who had already passed through like festivi- ties in their childhood, the little folks of the church had been preparing for this event for some time, and the result last evening did them credit and their efforts were crowned with grand success. Not only was the ap- preciativs audience pleased and interested for the moment, but many carried away i'm pressions which will be lasting influence for good Especially will the little folks be benefited by it's influences, and grow up bet ter and nobler men and women by being thus brought in contact with the church of God The more of these pleasant entertain ments we can have in our lives the better and happier we will be, and great good will al- ways come of them.
 The parts assigned to the different little ones were exceedingly well performed The Sunday school choir of fifteen girls was an excellent feature and is an honor to the school Immediately in front and above them as they stood in the organ gallery was 8 beautiful arch of flowers and evergreens with the word Thanksgiving" entwined in the center, while numerous bouquets helped to beautifJ the scene.
 Another notable feature was the Sunday school organist, a little girl of some seven years, Belle Arthur, who rendered several accompaniments for the infant class, though suffering from a slight indisposition.
 Those who took part in the entertainment were Alice Hubbard, Bessie Mallory, Eliza Henderson, Jennie Burnes, Clifford Reed, Fannie Perkins, Carrie Wright, Georgie Hayes, Henry Hosley, Gertie Osgood, Miss Thomas, Mir. Parsons, Misses Hinman, Shares, Wright, Perkins and Beimler, Minnie Kay and Amasa Trowbridge. The duet by special mention. Mir. Coe made an address, in which he told the children what they had to be thankful for, especially the gift of eter- nal life. H. O. Thomas is superintendent of the school, R. H. Johnson assistant superin- tendent and Miss Emma c. Hall lady super intendent.

Contains the history and pictures of hundreds of people who were stoned, burned, beaten, pulled to pieces and otherwise tortured on account of their conscientious convictions as to belief and duty. They suffered incredible torment and have come down to the present age as martyrs. It is not now customary to torture people thus, but they are made mar tyrs by rheumatism until they suffer almost as much as did the heroes of the martyrs ages. There was no relief for the old time Charles F. Morrill,, of Manchester, N. H., suffered terribly from frequent attacks of this painful disease, but he has been cured. He writes: 'I was martyr to rheumatism, and, although tried many other remedies, I found nothing that relieved me like Perry Davis's Pain Killer.' Other rheumatic mar tyrs may wisely take the hint
