filed. We had 10 visiting eldees with
US ane OF course we always make good
use of them on occasions OF this
kind.
Oldham is and has been for Is months
or more the centre of proselyting in
England. AT present we have. seven
elders actively engaged in propogandist
work here, Elders Barns, Foss, Austin,
Moss, Birchell, West and Broadbent
assisted by number Of local bretheren
and sisters who are ever Jealous in
spreading the Gospel of our Lord and
Master.
Our labors are not in vain as our
Heavenly Father has blessed them and
the result is we have had rs baptisms
in the Oldham district in Is months.
This may not seem many but there is
not another district in the English
mission that can count more than half
as many. Out OF the number who have
joined the church 10 are my cousins,
which gives me great joy TO think that l
have been priviledged to preach the
Gospel to them and that they have ac-
cepted it although do not take any
honor to myself but give it all to my
heavenly father.
we are now preparing for our confer
ence which will be held here on Nov.
IA. Missionary work is good and
grand work, one that gives an elder a
varied experience and one that we will
never forget. You will notice that in
the bill OF fare OF our tea party that we
had no fancy cakes, pies, roast chicken,
turkey, fruit, ice cream, etc. No, we
don't have these things at our parties
here the same as you do, but the people
enjoy the parties just as well as they do
at home. AT present there are many
thousands almost starving to death in
Oldham owing to great lock out of
some 5000 men. The papers gave it
the other day that $500 little children
went to school without breakfast one
morning and this occurs every morn
ing. The other evening when Eide
Barns aud / we've returning to our
lodgings after visiting some people, we
met two small children out between 10
aud IL O'Clock in the cold and rain. One
was girl about the other boy about
all in rags with no hat or bonnet on
They came running up to us and said
"Please sir will you give us penny to
buy some bread with, we are starving
and have no place to 60" "Oh please
give us penny" the little boy said, 81
am so hungry" We gave them money
to buy something to eat. 1t touched
our sympathy so that it almost brought
tears to our eyes. Could our young
folksa at home realize the many blessings
they enjoy compared with those of the
world they would ever be thankful that
their lot has been cast in such goodiy
land that is flowing with milk and
honey.

NO FAITH IN FITz,
William A. Brady Doesn't Believe
the Australian is in Earnest.
WHEN HE SEES THEM BOTH IN THE RING
Then Hen Believe There's Going to be a
Figh,-He Believes Corbett a Sure
Winner, as Does Also Charley
White, the Trainer.

Nav YoEk, Feb. g4-William A.
bradN who felinquishcd the active
management Of Corbett because of his
interest in other enterprises. and Char
ley White, Who is to put the finishing
touches on Gentleman Jim. left New
York Sunday for Carsen City. They
viii not touch Chicago but will 90 by
way of st. Louis, reaching Reno Thurs
day night, where they will stay until
the next morning, arriving on the battle
ground Friday morning.
"Do think that Corbett will win?"
said Brady, before his departure.
We'll, should say So Fitzsimmons,
in a signed statement, says that Jim is
not in his class. | agree with him.
Corbett is in class above the Aus
tralian, Although am going to Car
son with the idea of seeing Jim and
Bob fight, yet shall refuse to believe
that they will come together until
l see them In the ring. 1t
is my opinion that the Australian,
between now and the date set for the
contest, will make a thousand and one
excuses, so that in case he really does
enter the ring and is defeated he will
have them TO fall back on as to why he
did not win.
1T seems to me that intelligent per
sons can see through FitzSimmOns' pol
icy. Not only has he injured his wrist
already, but other mishaps have hap
pened to him, and it would not surprise
me in the least If he appeared at the
ring with his arm in a sling.
Il know enough to know that if Fitz-
simmons appears in the ring without
either his arm or leg in d sling, the
fight will be on the level without any
interference, until one or the other is
knocked out. But to tell you the
truth, | shall refuse to believe that
FitzsimmOns wants to fight until see
him in the ring.
"Corbett, in my opinion, Is a sure
winner, think that the people who
think he is not able to be in condition
will be greatly surprised after the fight,
provided Fitzsimmons has nerve enough
to enter the same ring with Jim
Il think the American will win" :"
said Charley White, who trained Fitzs
simmons for the fight with Corbett that
did not come off. have various rea-
sons for thinking so which do not
care to make public. 1t would be fool
ish to predict how many rounds the
fight will last, There are d great
nanv thing connected with Cor
belts condition which the pub
lie has not yet been appriscd,
and which he does not wish to be gem
orally known as it is on those things
that base my opinion that Corbett
will be in condition town. Rest as
sured OF one thing, shall do all in my
power to train Corhett into winning
condition and handle him in the fight
to the best of my ability.

PARIS, Feb IA dispatch was re
ceived at the ministry of marine from
Admiral POTTER, commanding the
French war ships off Canea, IS
land of Crete, in which he
says that anarchy is rapidly in
creasing in the island, and that
the foreign admirals are agreed,
and have so informed their respective
governments, that they can not longer
be answerable for the avoidance OF con-
fiicts unless they are authorized to pre-
vent Greece from landing provisions
and the powers compel Greece to with
draw her troops and war ships.
Admiral Potter also says that before
the firing of the foreign war ships be
gan Sunday, the admirals made re-
peated protests to the insurgents
against their attacking the town Of
Canea. The insurgents paying no heed
to the protests, advanced upon the town,
whereupon the British. German, Aus
trian and Russian war ships opened
fire and continued the bombardment Of
the insurgent position until the Greek
flag was lowered.

A CLOSE CALL.
Narrow Escape of DIR. Hughes and Family
of st. Louis, from Death.

Narrow Escape Of DIR. Hughes ana fathhS'
of st. Louis, from Death.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 22.-Dr, c. H. Hughes
and his family had a narrow escape
from death by lightning during the
thunderstorm early Sunday morning.
About six o'clock the doctor and his
family were aroused from sleep by
severe shock, which felt to them as
though the house was falling down from
an earthquake.
Upon examination of the promises it
was ascertained that a bolt of lightning
had struck the roof of the residence,
directly above the bed in which the
doctor was asleep. A large hole in the
ceiling and a crack in one OF the walls
of the room showed the violence of the
stroke and caused the occupants of the
room to stand aghast as they contem-
plated how close they had been to death
while asleep, unconscious of the storm
and electrical disturbance.
1t is regarded as something little
short of miraculous that the entire fam
ilv were not killed outright The house
was damaged about $500.

DRAMATlCS.

The crowning feature of the Al. G. Field Big White Minstregs this yeau. is the Cornalla family of lady and gentle men acrobats, seven in number and secured by MT. Field from the Barnum & Bailey circus at the opening of a1is present season. The sensation they have created in city after city fully confirms MT. Fields keen judgment fin securing such a feature. "They come high but we must have 'em,' elhuclles the genial minstrel magnate as he mentally runs over the salary paid the members of this wonderful troupe and then listens to the thunders of applause which greet their marvellous acrobatic triumphs. The Cornalla family receive salary which is equal to the entire weekly running expense of many very respectable sized road attractions, but their marvellous work fully entities them to it. Particu- lar attention is called to their back, for ward, twisting and double somsrSauIts, one, two and three high. They are un- disputabsy the acrobatic maryels of the
 present season. All modern acroba ts and all acts of muscle, intrepidtty and daring pale into utter insignificance when compared to the performance of these wonderful people. They will be seen with the rest of the big minstrel aggregation at the opera house Sept. 22, matinee and night.
