Bishop Hartzell, of the Methodist
Episcopal church, recently sailed for
England, where he will remain for a
rev days, and then go to Liberia and
begin his second episcopal tour of
Africa. Bishop Hartzells visit to this
country has been regarded by him as a
most profitable one and he is greatly
encouraged in his work. He is now
sending out ten additional missionaries
TO Liberia, all of whom are from lead
ing schools in the South, for the educa-
ton or the negro. A printing outfit
costing $4,000 has been shipped to Mon
roVla, the capital of Liberia, and
among other publications there will be
issued monthly paper to be known as
the New Africa. The mission press

from the South, and the work will be
done in one of the industrial depart

The bishop also is sending out addi-
tional missionaries to Angola and
Portuguese South Africa, south of the
equator, and another printing outfit for
the publication of hymns, tracts, books

are on the ground and have accepted
concessions in lands and buildings,
amounting to fully $4,000.

adds: THE existing Christian trans
