the whole truth about Herman Hus

He knows the truth and he told portion
of it last night. The struggle by Hua
bands was the beginning of the strug

FOREIGN MISSIONS.
Rev. W. NJ. Jones read the repo4 OF

else and breathed the spirit of advance
ment. Mr.. Jones followed the reading
of the report by an admirable address
teeming with fact and incident, and put

highest plane
Rev DIR. Barton, assistant correspond

misgivings. One leader Of the Baptists
said before he commenced: eve are
afraid that DIR. Barton will not meas

had not been speaking ten minutes be-

the assistant secretary was present. 1t
was truly a magnificent address, de

] cannot describe. The hour was late,
the people had been in church all day,
and yet they found DR.. Barton so en-
and winning that there was
general regret when he had finished.
AT first he gave facts with reference
to the work of the Board, emphasizing

In the past year there were
30 missionaries in the foreign field, with
10 native helpers. There have been
$50 persons baptized, more than ever
before, except one year. More people

church, but could get no further. The
preacher could not move forward until

missions. The people responded, and
somehow the more they gave to mis-
sions the farther was the church built.
Give ont to the world and God will
give back to you. When you get be-
hind and can't pay expenses, give to
missions" He was particularly happy
in excoriating the stingy deacon who
when his pastors heart was on fire for
The cause of missions, would say to
him: "Pastor, you had better look out
or your own salary" He was equally
Happy in his allusion to the drawing

After a tribute to Matthew Tyson
