gloomy reports about the safety Of Wells and Price Of
Frank Leslle's" exploring party. The steamer
touched at Kena, Cooks Inlet, and at Prince Will
lam Sound points which frequented by the Copper
River Indians Natives came in from the region OF
the Copper River where the explorers were last SEEM
but they had heard nothing Of the two white men,
They reported the season unusually severe, with

MISSIONS IN THE SOUTHWEST.
Mr. Funsten Talks of His Work in that
Great Field.

Afne congregation for day service
assembled last night in st. Johns church
70 hear the Rev. j. B. Funsten, one OF the evan
gelsts OF this diocese, mako his report on MS dls
trict which Is Southwest Virginia. The cOngrega-
tion was composed In part OF Christ-chuch people
and In part OF st. Johns people, II being Joint
meeting Of both. In the chancel were rev
p. q. Nash, rector Of Christ church; Rev. Ever
ard Meade, the evangelist for Eastern Virginia;
the Rev. J. b. Funsten and Rev. l.. III. Burton,
rector OF st. Johns. Rev. Messrs. Nash ana
Meade read the seryice. Rev. Mr.. burton
welcomed the rector and congregation
OF Christ church and the two evangellsta- Mr..
Funston began dis remarks By saying that II ne
des.r-eG my reward for his labors Since
large congregation who had turned out
10 hear his report. A great change has
occurred in the Southwest since the war
from wild forests to a civilization far more ad-
yanced than we imagine. The Southwest is
loyal TO Richmond, and whatever helps the
Southwest viii help this city.
Mr.. Funsten said his district comprised some
tWenty-nye counties, mostly west OF the Blue
Ridge. The former religious teaching, while
sincere and earnest, was often ignorant ana
crude, and mover emphasized holiness OF lie as
much as necessary. He felt that to this part OF
the country the Episcopal Church with It's ven
erablo history, its dignihed order, its scriptu-
raj liturgy, its presentation Of the necessity
of holiness as the counterpart OF tslth,
had a special mission. He had gone through MS
field true 20 his Churchs customs ana ruDrlcs,
using the surplce and having the prayer-book
service, and no had been universally recelVed
without prejudice, with the heartiest welcome
and the most generous hospitality. .
Tho reverend speaker appealed TO the congre-
CATION 10 remain true 10 their city missions and
70 the vast field Of foreign missions, but also
never 10 forget or neglect the missions OF the
diocese, OF which the diocesan Missionary So
ciety Is the authorized agent
Ills remarks were listened 20 with prof0und At
tenton, and we're fun Of earnestness and spirit,
fluency ofspeech, breadth and yigor OF thought,
and manifested true conservation 10 Christ and
his Gospel. All the Christ church people came
forward after services to greet their former be-

Tho hall, under the new arrangements made
for the fair affords considerable more space,
and is capable of accommodating much larger
crowd than when used for the Carr nal, IS tbe

The restaurant and ice-cream saloon, being IN
separate ends OF the hail, also ofer greater in-
ducements as there Is more seclnsion unoer
this plan and greater facilities for hte-d-Ntss

nacle."
An agreeable feature 10 men who attend the
bazaar "a the smokers room adjoining the To-
bacco-bcoth, and the place Is always weli-tre-
quented masculine rendezvous.
Perhaps the greatest interest manu- 9steu ny
visitors is in the raining and voting, which causes

man loves this style Of amusement. The toDacco-
booth, too, being in such proximity 10 the
smokers "den,r IL doing splendid business
and the sales generally have been very en-
cournging.
