Chinese and Poor Whites.

Boston, Dec. 27.-The 18th annual re
port of the American Missionary Associa-
tion of Congregational churches was made
public, today. 1t is an exhibit Of what
New England men and money are doing
for the negroes and mountain whites in
the South. the Indians in the West and
the Chinese on the Pacific coast.
The secretary for New England is the
Rev. Geo. II. Guttersor Of Boston. il
is the method of the association to secure
representatives from New England in its
Southern field and its educational work,
because the funds arc obtained so largely
from the Congregational churches In Bos-
ton, Mass, and New England. The field
superintendent is the Rev. G. S. Dicker-
main, formerly of Amherst, Mass.
Among the Southern teachers are: Miss
Mary T. Nowcomb of East Machias, Storrs

Castine, principal of Dorchester academy,
Mcintosh, Ga. with Miss Minnie A.
Whitten, Vinalhavcn, Miss Carrie +. Lead

Miss Lucic l.. Hanscom, Winthrop, prin-
cipal of the Industrial Training School,

ate, 324l; prinabry, 1887; counted

The association was one Of the pioneers
in mission service among the Chinese i'm
migrants to California, because they wer,
exposed to the same persecution as then
endured by the other colorcd races in this
country. The statistics of Chinese worl;
up to date are as follows: Schools, Il
