HoyoRs FOR A BATH BoY.-The
following will be of interest to the
many friends of Elder j. Fred
Jones. He is a Bath county boy, a
son of Martin Jones, of Lower
Slate Greek, and was widely known
as u popular minister before he
went West about Is years ago. He
held revival meetings in the coun-
ty last summer with pronounced
success.
"Rev. j. F. Jones preached two
of his practical sermons at the
Christian church Sunday last. Note
was made recently of his selection
rs evangelist for the fourth dis
trict, comprising the counties of
Kankakee, lroquois, Ford, Living
ston, Mclean, Tazewell, Woodford,
Marshall, Putnam, and LaSalle.
We learn that his usefulness has
received further recognition by
the church, having been appointed
secretary of the state missionary
work. This is a most important
position, but the judgment of the
church authorities is evidently all
ht."-Minier III. News.
Estate SECRErARY.-Rev. j. Fred
Jones has been elected state secre-
tary of the Illinois Christian Mis-
siOnary Convention. He will not
work as district evangelist as was
at first intended. The state board
thought that he could do them
more good as state secretary and
urged him to take the place. He
has consented and will begin work
the first of January. He takes the
place Of Rev. G.. w. Pearl, who has
resigned and gone to California;
