An Essay, BY Eva Lambson.

Such has been the effect OF mis-
sionary work in foreign lands, but
when we turn to our own country
we can see even greater results than
these. What was the negro Of the
South in 1861, and what is he today?
The fierce hand of war broke the
chains OF slavery, but it could do no
more, and the progress of the colored
people since the day Of the emanci>
patton proclamation is due almost en-
tirely to the missionary movement.
A bright young colored girl who was
educated in the schools of the South,
founded and carried on by the Board
OF Missions for Freedmen, be-
came a teacher among very igno-
rant class OF her own people near her
own home in South Carolina, and
after the first seven months of school,
she wrote, 81 have been DESTROYS of
going to Africa, but since l have
been here l am persuaded l have

the Hottentots. have almost lost
sight Of Africa, Haiti and other hea-
then lands. l shall wait until have
seen the redemption of these people
on this side fthe ocean before going
to those on the other side"
Beginning her work in log hut
with little half naked girl, whom
she picked up along the road, as her
only pupil, she preserved for the
first two weeks, and after that her
school numbered seventy.six and
her Sunday school from thirty-si to
forty>seven. The following year
she wrote. Had any one from the
north who knew nothing Of slave
state, passed through here two years
ago he would have had little hope
for these people and their children.
When first came here there was
not one child who knew the alphabet
now many can read and write. l
have splendid bible class, but only
three bibles among them, which we
pass from one to another till all the
class have read"
This teacher afterward became the
wife of an honored minister, and so
it is that we find them stepping from
the slave to the teacher philanphro-
pist and orator, honoring their race
with such names as that of Booker
T. Washington, and making a pro-
gress in intellectual and moral de.

She is ready in her armor
To endure the battles brunt.

Into Liberty today.

She is climbing up to where
Proud Parnassus rears his summit
In the pure and perfect air.
This is woman's age, tell you.
She has entered every work.
And II men would still be leaders
To their laurels they must look.
This Is woman's age, tell you
She will never retrOgrade;
Peace and Progress are her watchword0
And on Truth her feet arc staid.
This is woman's age, tell you,
And she pledges it shall be,
By the grace of God, the noblest
Age that earth shall ever see.

PATIENCE
Be patientl Easy words to speak
While plenty fills the cup Of life,
While health brings roses to the cheek.
And far removed are care and strife.
Falling so glibly from the tongue
OF those-I often think Of this
Whom suffering has never wrung,
Who scarcely know what patience IL.
Be PATENT when the suff'rer lies
PROSTATE beneath some fell disease.
And longs, through torturing agonies,
Only for one short hour of ease.
Be patient! when tho weary brain
Is racked with thought and anxious caro-
And troubles in an endless train
Seem almost more than it can bear.
To feel the torture of delay,
The agony of hope deferred;
TO labor still from day to day,
The prize unwon, the prayer unheard.
And still to hope and strive and wait
The due reward of fortunes kiss
This is to almost conquer fate,
This is to learn what patience is.
Despair noti though the clouds are dark.
And storm and danger veil the sky;
Let fate and courage guide thy bark,
The storm will pass; the port Is nigh.
Be patientl and the tide will turn,
Shadows will flee before the sun.
These are the hopes that live and burn
To light us till our work is done.
All the Year Round.

AEIANLES CIV GNoOA&
The war in South Africa has
brought into prominence Charles
Everson Macrum, United States Con
sui at Pretoria. The severing OF
diplomatic relations between Great
Britain and the Transvaal places the
interests of both Great Britain and
the United States in his hands. He
was born in Pittsburg, Pa, thirty
three years ago. His family removed
to Fair Oaks, Ohio, and later to East
Liverpool, Ohio, where his father, N.
G. Macrum, took charge of the First
National Bank, as cashier, twenty
years ago. Young Macrum was edu-
Gated at the public schools OF Fair
Oaks and East Liverpool. Entering
business, he was treasurer Of the
Specially Glass company, of East
Liverpool, when, in July, 1898, he
was appointed by President McKin-
ley to be consul at Pretoria. He was
married in 1892 to Miss Dora Nc
Henry, of East Liverpool, and she is
with him in South Africa. He was |
president of the Phoenix Club, the
leading republican organization in
McKinley's old congressional district,
and was at first appointed consul at
Tahiti, Society Islands, but did not
accept that post. He is thoroughly
wrapped up in his work.

But those who continually pirate
about the faults of the church should
do something to remedy it. The
essential element in all life is action
and it is just as essential for person
who knows moral truth to put it into
action or suffer the deterioration of
inaction and become simply sound
ing brass"
But when it comes to foreign mis-
sionary effort, the church still has the
best of the argument. Who, pray,
first carried the light of civilization
into our own state of Minnesota but
self sacrificing Jesuits? To them,
service was the most important ele
ment in Christianity and always has
been ever since Christ gave himself
up for mankind.

KNOWING THE WORD, BUT DOING

If some of the church organization:
would expend as much effort in max
ing the hypocrltes, within the circle
of their membership, conform to the
principles they profess, as they ex,
pend in attempt to reform the hea
then, they would not have SO much
difiulty in making the average pro-
fame see the error of his ways. The
churches must sooner or later learn
the truth of the statement, that ''the
world has grown beyond that period
when belief, not the life or conduct,
was responsible for salvation Nor
ris Sun.
The above editorial appeared in
the Sun some time ago,..but was not
noticed by US until it began to ap-
pear in several papers of Importance
on our exchange table.
The idea which it embodies is old
and toothless. but as it is perennially
bobbing up it needs to be just as
often answered. Hypocrites in the
church are few and far between.
There are many non-C Christians who
foist themselves upon the church, at
tending it's services and ialgather
ings because it is eminently respect
able to do so, but who are not mem
bers of the church, nor professors OF
Christianity. Nevertheless these are
usually counted as members by out
siders, and their sins charged up to
the church.
Again, both by the revealed Word
of God and by ordinary deceney, we
are prohibited from harshly Judging
our neighbor. Gossip will find no
difficulty in creating lies out of
whole cloth or in grossly exaggerat
ing the truth, so that the real sins by
members of the church are reduced
to very few. Let ordinary charity
govern in deciding about these and
they all disappear. They we're
either mistakes, which are not sins, OF
else such alterations as any mortal
is liable to.
Churches in towns the size of..Mor-
ris spend about $10Oa year to ere
form the heather" while they spend
about 81, 200 for work in the local
field. Besides this they spend an
immense amount of time and effort,
but very sensibly devote their ener-
gies mainly to the instruction of the
young and to guiding Alright those
who are already professors of reli-
gion. Men who are not and do not
claim to be Christians are at all times
welcome to the services, but that
they do not accept Christianity is
not the fault of the church after the
effort which it makes, Lifelong |

Francisco hospital bill to-day, Governor
Gage also put the seal of his official dis
approval on bill that directly affects the
health of the people of Sacramento, name

system at the State Prison at Folsom
Under the present condition the refuse
of the entire prison is emptied into the

become a part of the citys water supply

so bad that residents of this city would
not use the city water for household pur-
poses, and in Assembly bill 2, which was
introduced by Johnson, they hoped to find
some relief.

are included in the following message:
