HOME MISSIONS.
Annual Meeting Of the R. |. Branch
Of the WOmen's Society.
Protest Against Seating Of Brigham H.
Roberts Of Utah Endorsed.

The annual meeting Of the Rhode Is
land branch of the Womans American
Baptist Home Mission Society was
commenced in the vestry OF the First
church today at l030. with large at
tendance. The meeting was called TO
order by the president, Mrs. w. IL.
Hines, and the devotional exercises
were conducted by Miss Sarah Durfee.
After the usual routine business, the
report of the treasurer was read. and
il showed that the expenses for the year
had been S6925, leaving a balance OF
s10.75 on hand.
Mrs. George +. Weston then read
review on the Mormons and their meth
DDS OF proselyting, and she was fol-
lowed by Mrs. G.. W. Peckham, of Som
erville, Mass, who made a stirring ad-
dress in behalf OF the Mork-of the as
sociation. In the course of her remarks
she spoke OF the fact that there were
thousands OF foreign born persons In
this country who are living outside OF
all Christian influences. Patriotism, II
nothing else, demanded that these peo-
pie should be saved, but most of all
they should be saved for the sake OF
the Lord Jesus Christ Sacrifices should
be made TO bring these people TO God,
for the Savior had told his disciples.
"Go We and teach all nations and do IL
for Jesus sake"
At the close Of the address collec-
ton was taken, and the corresponding
secretary read "A protest, on the part OF
the executive board. against the seat

dorsed

ings held and addresses made through

French birth. The report was accepted.
The morning session was then
brought TO a close by singing the Dox-
ology.
The afternoon meeting was held at
2:30 o'clock when an address was made
by Mrs. NJ. c. Reynolds, and the Off
GERS were elected.

WILL ECLIPSE MARCONrS TESTS.
Signal Service Men Promise 10 % lt-find The
Tesla Coil More Powerful.

Washington. April 12.-Col. Squler de-
voted yesterday in the laboratory at
the war department to the perfection
Of apparatus employed in the Marconi
system OF telegraphy which is soon to
be given a practical test by the signal
corps OF the army.
Numerous experiments were made
indoors. such as sending the waves
through the partition walls for the pur-
pose of getting the instruments in a
perfected condition.
The Tesla coil was given a thorough
test. and il was demonstrated to be
more powerful than the ordinary in
duction coil used by Marconi. and con-
sequently of more value. 1t will be
used altogether in connection with the
work.
1t is promised that whatever Marconi
accomplished will be not only duplicat-
ed by the signal corps officers. but &C.
lpsed but at that no assertions as to
the practicability of the system are
made.
