sion Work in Bulgaria, Whore Mucl
Money has Been sent

Money mas Been sent.
Denver, COL, Nov. 10. The general
missionary committee Of the Methodist
Episcopal Church has decided to con-
tinue the work in Bulgaria, but last
years appropriation was reduced seven
per cent. Bishop Foster. who visited
Bulgaria, favored dieoontinuance of the
work, while others wanted stronger
efforts made. The mission has been
broken up several times by war.
Those who opposed further appro-
priations in that quarter pointed to the
fact that the board has expended about
el00, 600 in Bulgaria, and there are only
$50 members of the church in that
country.
Appropriations for work among the
Germans in this country were made as
follows; California, $1,000; Central,
4,55T; Chicago, 50, 927; Eastern,

careful to keep himself true to that
promise to which he could not be
legally held, than to those where
he must pay.
Study the life of Joshua, begin
ming with the first chapter of
Joshua, or better still, beginning
back a little further III Numbers,
and read of his allegiance to Moses,
and then take the book of Joshua
with that introduction.
Mankind is naturally seeking for
solidity. This world trembles and
revolves rapidly around the sun,
and that sun around another sun,
and we are looking tor the center,
the great solid center, where moth
ing moves. The central point
around which the universe revolves
is God, and God is the only per-
fectly solid thing of which you can
read or think; and he only has a
solid character whose character is
founded on God.
Who was Joshua? Who was his
father? Why he was "Nun" He
was the son of Nun. That is all
we know about him, and it is just
as we'll, probably, to know nothing
else. His father was not a noble
man, and it did not make any diff
ference who his mother was.
Aaron-you know his ancestry;
Moses-you know his ancestry
But who was Joshua? He was a
house servant. We read he was
"Moses' minister" I don't think
he found any fault in waiting on
Moses in the humblest way. He
brought his food and washed the
dishes, and took care of the tent
and made up his bed.
Determined to be faithful in an
humble way to some one who is
doing more than you can do, is tc
have the loveliest character this
side of a perfect Christianity. You
see man or woman who can do {
work better than you can, and yor
acknowledge it, and you set your
self to assist him or her in that
work. That was Joshua. That is
the finest thing in his history, that
he saw that Moses was called OF
God to do a certain work, and he
felt that Moses was capable OF
performing it with Gods help. Sc
be BUNDLED himself entirely, de
voted himself wholly to Moses, and
until the angels buried Moses, he
was Moses faithful servant every
where.
When Moses died, and his grave
was covered with the leaves by the

naturally say, "The only man who
is we'll acquainted with the coun-
sells of Moses, who knows the in,
side Of his life, is Joshua. But he
is only a servant, he is not of arts
tocratic birth, he has not the edu-
cation which Moses had in all the
learning of the Egyptians. He
has only been a servant. Yet ne
has been with Moses all this time.
He has been faithful to Moses. He
understands all of Moses wishes
and ways"
Joshua himself felt that, and he
declined the appointment. He
acted as though he could not un-
dertake such a great thing. But
they will be destroyed without him,
the promised land will not be taken,
Jerusalem will not be built, if he
does not go on; and yet he is SO

accepted the awful charge Of lead
ing them into the new Canaan, we
ind this thing about Joshua, that
oe had no plans of campaign for
himself.
Every church which comes to
great success gets to that point
without human hobby The min
lster must have no iron plan; he
must simply see what the Lord
commands to be done next, and all
the methods for intervening work
must be left to God. If a man
gets up hard, iron-clad plan, and
then determines to bring his
church into that plan, he will
wreck the whole enterprise.
God does not often tell us how
to do a thing in advance He
simply tells us to do it. He said
TO Joshua, LEAD this people into
the promised land" and that is all.
He said to him, ''Be of good cour-
age, and lead them in" He did
not say to him, THE river will di-
vide" He did not say, "The walls
of Jericho Will fall"
God said. "Travel this way" and
he went there. God said, "Go to
this city," and he went. God said,
"Go to this valley" And SO, step
by step, without seeing more than
one step at time, at last he stood
with Caleb triumphant in the land
of which they had together re-
ported SO favorabIy.
At last Joshua stands mighty
conqueror of a great land. He
had conquered it in Gods own way
He had NO plan Of campaign for
himself; he simply knew that the
land ought to be God's, and he
was commanded to take if. Anc
he went ahead to take if, and each
hour and each day would God re
veal to him what should be done
then.
For such man the sun stand
still always. For such man tn,
world always turns into help Sucl
a man, like all the brave, fortune
favors. For such man, who set
the mark high, who is determined
to do great things for God, ant
who feels commanded of God t
do this thing all such women
all such men, and such churches
or such enterprises-the sun al
ways stands still until the victory
is complete.-Conwell.

JOSilua'S Character.
Sermon by Rev. Russell II. ConweII of Phila-
de1phiG.


book of Joshua, what keynote I
could give them to the book that
would make it Of more interest to
them, and it seems to me that the
question they asked of me should
be asked by other students of the
Bible.
So say to you readers of the
Bible, take for the keynote the
character of Joshua Read it with
the chief purpose of finding out
what sort of man Joshua was,
and then the book will have in
tense interest to you. You will
go back and read it over the sec
ond time with more fascination
than at first. and the tenth time
you will read it with a greater in
terest than ever before.
It seems to be built around the
example of Joshua, and it seems to
present, in his life, lessons of NOR
atty, lessons Of earthly wisdom,
and lessons of religion that can be
taught in no other way but by per-
-sOnal example.
If you read this book Alright, you
will find that one of the principal
characteristics of Joshua's charac-
ter was this: that he had fixed
principles; that he was grounded
and settled on certain moral ideas,
on certain religious truths, and
that he never swerved from them
Oh, that is a noble character!
Now in the text we find this dec
laration of his, GAS for me- and my
house, we will serve the Lord. -
tIe said, eff you choose to go and
serve the gods of the Amorites;
If you choose to mingle with the
people who have already been con
demned by God for their sins if
sou choose, you still have left that
right from God; we can select evil,
we can select good; but as for me
and my house, we will serve the
Lord"
No matter what temptations you
bring to Joshua. it does not make
any difference, or what ambitions
you might present to him, for he
might have had the throne. But
his character is fixed. "My heart
is fixed" saith David. If he had
been faithful to his profession, he
would have been as magnificent a
character as Joshua, but Joshua
lived up to the principles he pro-
fessed.

This unusual occurrence is due to
the fact that the addition of the

makes up the presumed deficiency
