Campaigning.

DR.. Fish wholly withdrew from
campaign work last spring, owing
to ill-health. But he has concluded
to re-enter the work this fall, after
September 1st., and will make en-
gagements in Minnesota and Wiscon-
sin. An assistant editor is now with
us giving us more liberty. The terms
will be, expenses and S.. Last year
he was out every week but four for
so weeks. This year we wish applica-
lions would be sent in early SO that
we can arrange dates to save rail
road expense. We believe in a school
house campaign, and in the small
villages. Arrange, if possible, for a
country address afternoons and in
the evening to the village people.
Do not appoint Tuesdays or We'd
nesdays. Better way is to send in
the calls a month or six weeks ahead,
and let us make the dates-in that
way we can divide up railroad expen-
SEES.
ABOUT ADVERTISING.
We will furnish bills for advertising
free-from so to 25O-provided every
one will be used. 1t is a universal
idea-everywhere except among ex-
perienced people that a half-dozen
bills used, and twenty-five people
told, in a township, will advertise
matters. This is a great and COM
mon error. People do not tell these
things so much as supposed, and if
they do they forget dates and partic-
ulars. Use every bill you get, and
make advertising study. We have
made campaign speeches dated three
weeks ahead which people within five
miles OF the school house knew moth
ing Of.
ORGANIZING.
Organize for meetings Appoint
men at crossroads and school dis
tricts to visit others, have a COM
mon meeting place for teams, and
come in crowds that ''clean out" the
district and ''gather them in" to the
shoolhouse, grove or hall. Frequent
ly churches are used. We can assure
our friends that we take this work
up as Gods own cause-on the text
that ''Justice to the poor is the
Righteousness of God" Determine
On this: eve will have a mass meet
ing-and a big one!

The Oriental Concert.

The Oriental concert given ct the Green
street church last evening. wss An event
that many hsd looked forward to with an
ticipations Of musical treat. Tie weather
Vas Disappointment. but not 90 the con-
cert, and about 300 were present. This
concert was gotten up TO raise money fer .
mission school in China. The mission
society was interested in this school by The
address, that Mise Clara CashmAn gave hsl
concerning it last winter.
The programme Of the copcert has already
been published in the JOURNAL. II was
carried out in every detail with several
additions. At the close Of the third number,
"Ths Mumee" from the japanese, the
singer, Miss Jennie II. Hill Of Melrose,
Mass, was recalled and sang pleasing
so,g adapted to the Japanese. Miss Harris
at the close Of that selection from the
Chinese, "The Looking Towards Home
Tower" was recalled. Mr.. Blsckington
ssng by request ''His Picture OF Her"
and being recalled sang "Msreherits At
the close Of Part H. Mi.s Hill sang Win
teIs Lullaby 1t 10 difficult to make any
special mention but the solos Of Misses Hill
and Harris and Mr.. Blsckington were among
the most pleasing features OF the evening
In MIR. Blsckington Augusta musical talent
has the excellent acquisition Of smother fine
tenor voice. To Mre. Chas. Il. Mason
more than to any other one person great
credit is due for much Of the
preparation needed for this concert.
She herself adapted several of the transla-
tons 10 the Oriental melodies. the collec-
ton Of which represents task little appre-
ciated. Before the prelude an explanation
Of several Of the numbers On the programme
was read by Rev. Mr., Ross. Certainly,
while the people Of the western world little
understanding - they do the music Of the
Orient and looking upon it as containing
neither melody or sweetness, all who heard
the selections last evening will conclude
that whether Oriental or not both melody
and sweetness are prominent attributes.
The first two plumbers. 1.-THE Birds tbst
Fly" and 1.-The Song Of the Excite" were
transcribed from the music of native
Japanese performers by Clara Louise
kellogg. In her own words, "They
are beautiful, original and full
Of sentiment" Their history is very
interesting. "'rhe Song Of the Mu,mee, -
is Edwin Arnolds description Of the typical
Japanese msiden, accompanied by q
characteristic Oriental melody. No.

a pleasant tradition, and is q
remarkable example of harmony, in which
Chinese music is supposed to be deficient
The native airs in Part III. were, like the
Chinese and japanese airs, notable for the
plsintive undertone that pervades them.
however gay the sentiment may be. In
this part were airs Hindustani, Arabian
and Persian.

Found Technically at Fault.

though the disaster was plainly one tina,
could not have been sverted under the cir.
cumstances, Jet 1t was expected there would
be me sort of explanation offered for
the general finding Of the court that 'no
further proceedings should be hsd i, the
matter" IL nov appears that sucl an ex
planation was submitted, and that while no
off GER on board the vessel was blamed for
the wreck, the three officers ia charge of
the ship were each found technically at
fault.

the loss of the vessel was not directly dua

Lieut.. r p. Muliigan, who also displayed
bravery, was found IN faux In that he
failed to Inform himself by what authority
chALgss had been made from the written

formation that the apparently red ligh: in

The board found that the grounding and

BY this confusion Of lights, and, secondarily,
by the failure to use the lead.
