ceedinss Of the German Baptist Annual

which b. L. sharp. OF Illinois. submitted the
report Of the Committee on Missionary
Work. Forty-Gye thousand dollars was col
lcctcd during the year, 10 churches organ
1zed, 36 church-houses built. and $40 mem-
hers received through mission work. The
report was adopted.
The report Of book and tract work was
read, showing large collections and dis
burSements and the distribution Of books
and tracts.
The most interesting discussion Of the day
was on the prohibition question. The acton
Of the meeting Yesterday on this question did
not give satisfaction, snd the standing COM
mittee introduced through Elder j. G.. Nor
ris, of Illinois, the following:
Whereas in consideration OF Query No. >,
from Western Maryland, there unfortunate
" obtained Misunderstanding among our
brethren, producing very unsdiistACtUIy
result 10y creating a wrong impression as TO
our position on the subject OF temperance:
therefore
Re.0iued, That this annual meeting recon-.
mend that all eur brethren carefully main
tam our position against the use or tOe-
rance OF intoXcants, whether 10 manuiAc-
ture or 10 uss rs a beverage, and TO the eX-
tent Of our Influence contribute our part to
secure practical prohibition. but that we be
advised against taking pant in the public
agitation oi the subject.
The resolution after discussion was unani-
rnously adopted. The subject OF foreign
missions was then taken up. and il was Te-
solved that the Church In Canada should be
treated as a iereign mission. After this the
question whether or not sisters could he
delegated 10 the annual council came M.
This caused a very spirited discussion, but
ii was finally decided they could not. Ii was
decided that elders should be allowed to
anOint the sick, and il no elder could be had
then the next highest in authority was
authorized TO do so.
The que.tiOn Of the use Of tobacco was
then brought up, and 1t was again decided
that ITS use was against the teaching OF
Scripture. The meeting then appointed d.
l.. Miller. OF Illinois. one OF the delegates TO
act IS the railroad agent Of the convention.
II was decided 10 be improper for the
brethren TO join the Farmers Alliance, the
Carpenters Association, etc. After vIgor-
Gus protest It was declared that members
should not work in tObaccO-fsctories or
raise tobacco, and it was further decided
that II was wrong TO use tobacco except for
medicinal purpose.
The days session closed with the reading
OF message of love and sympathy from
the brethren Of Denmark and Sweden.
