Cur Work at Hutchinson. Kansas.

Evangelist Beasley and Rev J. Fl
T. Ralmy spent one week in Hutch
lnson. Collected $40. O4 for the in.
debtedness of the Second Rantist
Church and School.
One of the largest audiences tba,
ever attended the Second Baptist
Church, on last week listened tc
evangelist Beasley's plain Bible
talk to the Christians of the citv
In company with Rev. Beasley, was
Rev. }, II. c. Rainy of Clarkyille
Tenn, who assisted in the meetings.
Ihe Church was filled to its utmost
capacity each evening. Quite a
number stood on the outside that
could not gain admittance. The
audience listened for one week with
close attention to the plainest gospel
that had ever been preached in The
| second Baptist Church. Never has
there been in the city of Hutchinson,
Such sermons that went so deep and
yet was so delicately handled New
er perhaps, has preaching in Hutch
lnson to the colored people, where SO
much dlscord exists among Baptists
made so profound an impression as
the straight preaching to the Bap-
tIsts OF the city. We feel safe in
saying that Rev. Beasley has done
more TO unity the Baptists of this
city than any Baptist minister that
mas ever visited the city. If Rev.
Prlce and Rev. Smith and Rev. Jen-
klns and the so called Baptist preach
efs' would let our church people
alone and stay in their own fields of
labor, where they have been proper
~ called, and stop sending for Coun-
CHS TO attend to our business
our consent, we think they would do
better as Baptist ministers and pas-
tors O. locks and not agitators of
fractions i'll Baptist ranks. We have
called as pastor of our church, Rev.
}. IL. Z. Rainy of Ciarkville, Tenn.
VINO comes to us well recommended
from Tennessee and also from our as
sOclatiOn. He was elected without q
descending vote. We are satisfied
that under the leadership of this
good man as pastor Of our church.
there Will be no need of Councils i'm
our church, to discuss pro nor con
the conditions of the disgranters and
the excluded persons from our ranks.
The church has taken stand not
to take any part in any council that
will visit Hutchinson at the call Of a
dlsorderly congregation, worshiping
on Third Street, claiming to be a
Baptist Church, which is endorsed |
as such by Rev. J. w. Price, CO,
Rev, Jenkins and one Hurs-
ton. If these ministers would Just
let our people alone we would have
peace throughout the city, The
church has voted that she will never
nave any thing more to do with the
on Third Street, unless
he excluded members of that BODY
Omes to make an Acknowledgement
nd be restored. And if any one .
Who claims to have been converted
here comes to join the Second Bap-
lst Church, such persons upon their
experience may be receiv-
q. But II the association in it's
Augment sees fit to advise us along -
his line we will hear her at anv
me. The first Sunday in Septem- h
er was great day in the history of
ne Second Baptist Church. The t
lurch held its services morning :
ld evening at the Second Baptist
lurch. From 2 p. III. to D. m.
le services were held in the Audi =
rium which was promotive of
enthusiasm and favor
nong the warm hearted brothers -
ld sisters both white and black. y
no Hooked in large numbers to the
lnlstration Of the word, who sit 49,
TN no less interest and patience "
rough the hot hours. Rev. Reas-
Y preached, and Rev. Rainy enter II
med the audience with some of his
1 time plantation songs. At s: 80

use, and the Lords supper was

d Rainy. We paid the Evangel- r
for his weeks service, sl4 To l
V. Rainy, $3.50. To Rev. r.
vely, our ex-Pastor, $21.22. We
pc to be able to do something for
