Hartzell continued. 1.-The general mis-
sionary committee Of the church at its
recent session in Providence gave care
full study to the whole movement. But
in view Of its worldwide responsibilities
in missionary fields it could not appro-
pirate for 1899 what it felt the work
ought to have. The next best thing it
could do was to make q conditional ap-
preparation of $40, 900 provided friends
Of Africa would contribute that amount.
My hope is that American friendswill
give me $40, 600 with which to accept
and develop those English concessions

stage hands, headed by Stage Manager
Stewart, entered the stage they were
confronted by the animal, who sprang
at them Not being able to bite, being
heavily muzzled, the beast twined his
arms about Stewards legs and threw
him down, and then jumped for the
next man, Stage Carpenter Landon.
