Bishop Ninde and DIR. Schell have
sent out q letter to Epworth League
chapters which contains the following:
THE growth Of the Epworth League
still attracts comment. We now have

bers. Bishop Joyce has rendered active
service i'm extending and perfectng the
organization in China. Japan and
Korea. New chapters have been or
ganized in Burmah, Liberia, and in the
republic of Hawaii. During the year
our Wesleyan brethren in England
have adopted an organization similar
to our own, under the name of the
Wesley Guild. The Epworth league
prospers greatly in the Methodist Epis-
copal church, South, and in the Cam
adan Methodist church.
But while we drill the great Ep-
worth army to intelligence, let us not
forget that we are a distinctively relig-

Let us wait on the ministry of the
word by our pastors, be faithful at the

pray for revivals of religion; and by

II the Oregonian wants 10 shoV- az

help us to get share Of the Alaska

oregonian that Astoria can handle this
trade with an advantage utterly impos-

Coast stands some show Of increased
prosperity growing out Of the Alaska
excitement but Astoria, and Astoria
would get her share also. If it were NOT

Of oregOn's whole people But the
reason for it's strange silence

An act Of the Georgia legislature to

neither Of puritanism nor Of effeminacy.
nor Of zeal for the protection of life and

ball is played chiefly at schools aud col
