Twin City Ministers Hold Meet
ing at Red Rock---Camp Notes.
Life at Red Rock was very quiet yes
terday. The regular camp meeting serv-
ices filled in the hours of the day. In
the morning at 1890. Rev. j. Nj. Bull,
of Saltwater, preached before a fair
congregation, and the afternoon
was filled with conservation serv-
ices. These meetings were perhaps
the most interesting of the day. A
couple of weeks ago the Methodist min
listers of st. Paul adjourned to meet at
Red Rock yesterday and hold their last
meeting for this season. An invitation
was sent to the Minneapolis pastors to
be present and participate in these ex-
erciSes. The meeting was held yester-
day afternoon in the chapel Oh the
grounds. 1t was the idea of the minis
tiers to talk plainly OF the condition of
affairs in the two neighbOring cities.
and none but ministers were wanted
was in charge of the services.
Opening the ritual he read the duties Of
Methodist minister, accompanying
each with some forcible remarks. Some
of the requirements he believed the
ministers were not fully living up to.
He believes that the Methodist church
does not occupy the position it should in
the cities. The future was what the
pastors would make it, and he trusted
that there would be an awakening among
them all. There were present between
twenty and thirty ministers, among the
number being:
Dr. j. H. Dewart DR.. S. B. Warner, DR.. W.
