many years before. 1t is said that

of an Irish parliment dominated, as
they claim it would be, by the Roman

1t is worse than idle to shut our eyes

Samuel ID. Frew came to this country
from Belfast, North Ireland, six years
ago. lie liked the American climate
and the American people, but he can
not endure American stockings. lie

hosiery of old Ireland. And so finally
he wrote to his mother i'm Ireland to
send him some stockings. She was
glad to please her boy and so she
knitted six pairs of Irish stockings and
sent them to her son.
But she didn't write about them, for
she wanted them to be surprise, and
the FIRST young Frew knew of the mat
ter was when bulky document arrived
from the custom house. 1t was rs fol-

When Frew looked at the bill he
thought the custom-house was at fault,

the tariff ought to be. Here is what he

said Frew.

CHRISTIAN CONVENTION.
Condition of the Church in Missouri

Extract from an interesting report by Ed.
G. A. Hoffman.
At the Ninth Annual Convention of
the Christian church, held at Fulton
last week, Elder G.. A. Hoffman, in lis
reports said:
Our methods of gathering statistics
are very imperfect. Many churches
have not yet made their reports for the
present year. Statistics should all be
gathered through small local organiza-
tions. This in time will be done and
they will be much more easily gathered
and far more complete. The reports
that have already come in show gain
of 5000 members over last year. The
reports last year together with an esti-
mate of our scattered membership give
us 10, ,5SG. The membership now there
fore so far as reported is l0S,77l. Unre-
ported, 4 900: scattering 6 900. Making
total of 1lS,0l, or a gain of 1920.
The number of organizations reported
have reached ,220. There are doubt
less as many as 80 from which we have
no reports. This gives / ,255 congrega-
tions. A gain of 90. OF these churches
795 report Sunday schools. There are
ut least 100 unreportcd, making in all
S95, or gain of 81 over last year. The
officers and teachers in these schools
number 72,310. While our Sunday
school work is not in as prosperous or
perfect a condition as we hope to see it
in the future yet it is rapidly increasing
both in numbers and efficiency in bible
instruction. 1t will be noticed from the
above that we report $50 congregations
without Sunday schools.
We report 40 church buildings with
valuation of 81, ,797 300 At least 60
buildings valued at 100000 have not
reported. Giving us $50 buildings val
ued at 8 ,S97 800. A gain of 40 build
ings over last year, and $500, 900 in
property valuation. The money ex-
pended for these 40 church buildings is
over 100000. Church building
promises to continue active in the fu-
ture. Some 80 buildings are either
under headway or projected to be
built in the near future at cost of
100000. What is remarkable in re-
gard to our church property is that
there is not over $780, of indebted
ness, or about > per cent against it i'll.
the whole state. 1t becomes still more
remarkable when il is known that five
churches owe two thirds of this debt.
