Rev G. NJ. Wilkins already has 250 Sunday school scholars at the new St. Luke's church at Washington Heights, New York city, an increase of ten-fold from the beginning of P. All available space is filled at every service in the chapel of the roomy old Hamilton Grange at Convent avenue and Hist street and the basement of the new church edifice will be utilized for services as soon as it can be made ready. The church, blast ing for whose foundations has begun, is to stand directly on the corner, with the front on Convent avenue and the side ex- tending for l60 feet down Hist street. It will have frontage of so feet and a handsome tower 150 feet high, at the southwest corner. It will be built en- tirely of granite and the total cost is ap- proximated at $200,000. The church is built, not only to accommodate the rap idly growing number who to-day wor- ship with the church in that locality, but to provide for the needs of generations, perhaps centuries to come. And no site could more appropriately be chosen, nor could a sightlier location be obtained. From the grange, which will be retained as the rectory, a wide view may be ob- tained on pleasant days, including Long Island far to the eastward.

SOUTH BRITAIN.

Residents interested in the North bury ing ground at South Britain have recent ly organized the Pierce Hollow burial as sociation, filing the proper papers with the town clerk and secretary of state. Such associations are now permitted to organize under statute as corporations without capital stock, for the purpose of taking charge of cemeteries already ex- isting, with any additions of ground that may be necessary. It is the purpose of the directors, Reuben, Ezra and John Pierce. to put this long neglected place in good order. Nature has dealt kindly with the location. The earliest inseript- ion on stone is that of Mrs Hannah Pierce, l757, although it was used as a place of burial much earlier. Among the epitaplls is one to a wife, which reads ]; "A heap of dust alone remnins of thee. E Iris all thou art and all the proud sllall be. 2, Another, to the daughter, aged 21 nMy youthful fr1ends.see how soon
 I'm summoned to the silent tomb.

Mir Moody's latest departure in his Northfeld work is welcome advance along line where advance is much needed. He proposes to open new training school for women, distinct from those already established. which shall combine q course of Bible study, with thought, practical drill in cooking and dress-making. As the workers trained in the Bible Institute at Chicago, or sim liar institutions, go from house to house on their gospel mission, they find op- portunities for practical help forced up- on them. For example, last Thanksgiv- ing, lady came upon motherless home where boy of 12 was wrestling with the problem of dinner suited to the day. The father had provided material, but the poor boy was utterly helpless as to it's preparation, till the good missionary stepped in and brought order out of con fusion. Often mother is found with q group of half-clothed children, and the garments given her are of no use unless the missionary can teach her how to make them over. The new training school will fit missionaries for just such work and it, in turn, will open hearts to the gospel. The school will open in Oc tober for two terms, three months each it will be held in 'srhe Northfield," a building that can accommodate from 50 to 100 ladies. The total expense per term will be $100.-G Union Signal.
