NOTES FOR JANUARY.

DEAR SISTERS: We are going to take
you all into our confidence. and give you
the gleanings from the correspondence
of the past month. which concerns every
lover of the church we are trying to
build up. as much as though it was per-
sonally addressed to you.
Some time ago DIR. j. w. Hanson. of
Pasadena, CAL. asked this Association
for donation of $4,000 for redemption
of the Riverside Cali church from a
mortgage that hangs over and threatens
to overtake that parish with disaster.
Although it went to our hearts to refuse,
we had to because we had no money
unappropriated in the treasury. 1t was
30 small a sum, and the thing to be
saved was SO large, it did seem too bad
something could not be done by some of
our brothers or sisters who have money
and who desire to put it where it will do
most good.
Dr.Hanson writes lately: IF themoney
to lift the mortgage from the Riverside
church should not be raised, calamity
will not only befall Riverside but the
whole range of the Pacific Coast. 1t
would take years to overcome the re-
suite; meanwhile should there seem a
possibility of helping Riverside in any
degree, it will be bread cast upon the
waters" For some time it has seemed
too clear, the gardener is not re uired 10
both plant and water. and make seed
grow Having done ones duty in max
ing the garden, the next thing is to
cherish patient hope that God will do
what is best by putting the other part
OF the work upon someone else's con-
science, and we commit the Riverside
need to your earnest consideration, trust
ing some one will see the way clear to
help us to help them in their time of
greatest need.
"THE DOOMED WOLF" A CASE IN POINT
In one of our recent notes it was an
nounced that this most popular and in
some respects telling of all our Tracts
was fast going. if not gone. out of print
and declaring our intention of reprint
ing on the first opportunity, when some
thing occurred to make one almost go
back to the belief in special provi-
dences," for within the month we have
received overtures from two sources to
print this Tract for distribution by other
organizations. One comes from the Ma
tional Secretary of the Y. p. @. u. ask
ing US for privilege of using plates to
strike off several thousands for distribu-
ton. And the other comes from the
President of the w. @. A. of Missouri,
Mrs.. Ida X. Martin. asking for a copy
and the privilege OF printing for distri.

MAYOR SWIFT on Monday turned
the city police department into re-
lief and aid agency, establishing the
"Mayor's Relief Fund" for the purpose
of giving food, fuel and clothing to
destitute people. He has also put in
to operation system for the immedi-
ate relief of the suffering, as soon as
their condition is discovered, and
without the necessity for the usual
red tape and investigating process of
the charity organizations or the coun-
ty aid bureau. In the evening the
Mayor issued the following proclama-
ton:
To the Generous People of Chicago:
The present severe weather must natur.
ally excite the keen sympathy of every
kindly disposed person for the worthy
and suffering poor. A protracted period
of business depression has thrown thous-
ands of men and women out of employ
ment and brought want to families not
previously familiar with it. No startling
| emergency exists, but the need usually
prevailing in a large city is now consid-
orably augmented because of continued
'nard times" and the terrible cold. You
have ever been found generous in behalf
of all worthy objects, and 1 think it pro-
| per at this time and in this way to call
! your attention to the special occasion
now existing for manifestation of your
reasonable generosity. The distress of
women and children in their homes
ought especially to be relieved. There
are many worthy persons who hesitate
to seek assistance, but suffer in silence
propose to utilize the police depart
ment for the purpose of investigating
cases of restitution. particularly in
homes. and of giving prompt help to
those found worthy. ask contributions
of money, food and clothing. Money
may be sent to E. G. Keith. president OF
the Metropolitan National bank. and all
contributions should be designated as
intended for the mayors Relief Fund.-
This fund will be expended under the
direction of the general superintendent
of police for the purchase of food and
fuel. Contributions of food and cloth
ing may be sent directly to the general
superintendent of police at the city hall
GEORGE B. SWIFT, Mayor.
Funds amounting to 4,504.75 with
nearly $1,000 additional from the
members of the Board of Trade, were
contributed up to Monday night. Dur
ing the day the entire police depart
ment, with its equipment of patrol
wagons, ambulances and supply wag
one, was transformed into a relief
association. Before night the Mayor
received report from commanding
officers telling of relief furnished to
over 700 families during the day, and
he said he had reason to believe the
number would reach 1000 before
morning

QUOTA PAYMENTS.

The Hamilton church was the first to
respond to the call for contributions Of
the general expense fund of the Conven-
ton. Miss Maude L. Warwick has sent
us the full amount, $500. The money
was paid by the Woman's Missionary
Alliance, and was raised at the annual
"iug breaking" which took place on De-
cember TO- Brief devotional exercises
were conducted by Mrs. j. G. Hendry,
President Of the Alliance. An excellent
solo was sung by Mrs. Hattie Order,
after which Rev. Margaret E. Titus. wife
of the pastor. gave brief address. Her
theme was: "The Social Relations. or
Intercourse among Members of the Con,
gregation." Her remarks were appro
pirate. and were acquiesced in by those
present by the cordiality manifested
while the contents of the jugs we're be-
ing counted. after which refreshments
we're served. These annual gatherings
are occasions that are much enjoyed
and are looked forward to with pleasur-
able anticipation.
The next to respond to the call, was the
"old reliable" church at Olmstead. The
full amount, Sl3, was forwarded by Miss
Lena A. Coe. clerk. with annual reports
of the church. The money was paid by
the Ladies' sewing society. Rev. Abbie
E. Danforth is pastor at Olmstead. and
breaches there on alternate Sundays.
Mrs. Jennie M. Brown. Secretary of
the Woman's Missionary Alliance at
Cuba, has remitted 500, the quota of
that church. But few women are more
loyal to the interests of the Universal
ist church than those of the Cuba ALI
ance. Mrs. S. E. Stanton, clerk of the
McConnellsville church, RENTED with
report of the church So 90, the amount
requested from that church.

Miss M. A. Bortle. who is preaching on
alternate Sundays at Mansfield, writes,
January ID: I'VE are steadily growing
here; the last two Sabbaths we have
been holding services in larger and
more comfortable hall. Our people are
thoroughly awake to the interests of the
cause. enjoy them and my work there;
they are loyal and energetic. Have de
cided not to hold the Associational Con.
ference there for the present."
CLEVELAND.
Rev. Carl F. Henry preached Sunday
morning, January II. on "The Bottomless
Pit" Judging from the following, from
Good Tidings. of January ID. he was
prompted to deliver this sermon from
strong conviction that the day for doc
trinal preaching has not ended. He says:
The great audience that listened to the
sermon at Epworth church last Sunday
evening on The Bottomless Pit must
have gone away under the impression
that the common statement, that mo
body of any consequence believes in hell
any longer is not to be accepted with
