Interesting Topics Discuased-Able
Missionary Address.

The NJ. F.. ministerial ASSOCIATION OF
the Sioux Falls district opened it's sess-
ion In the NJ. E. church here last eve-
ming with Presiding Elder Dobson 10
the chair and conducting the opening
exercises. The chief feature Of the eve.
ning's session IA the lecture by Homer
c. Stuntz, d. D., Of Iowa, a former mis-
sioDary in India. 1t was q magnificent
discourse, descriptive OF the peoples in
India, Japan, China and eastern Africa,
the superstitions and practices that de-
grade them. the difficulties encountered
in reaching them and the share the
Methodist church has in the work OF
redeeming them. India or Hindostan he
considered the center from which the
greatest regenerating Influence can go
forth and this can best be accomplished
by reclaiming for Christ the great and
Industrious body Of Hindostonee people.
They are a magnificent people but de-
graded by their religion, caste aud ig-
norance. And the greatest obstacle OF
all TO their redemption and elevation is
the degradation Of the women and the
impos-,bility almost of reaching them
because OF the bondage in which they
are kept. He described graphically the
work and progress of the NJ. f. missions
and the grand work they were accom-
plishing in the heather land.
This forenoon Elder Dobson discussed
bible study and DR.. Stuutz made an ad
dress along the line OF education ard
practical work necessary to make
missions success. In the afternoon q.
+. Hopkins CT Fiandrau addressed the
conference on, How to use disciplinary
committees: President Graham OF
Mitchell University spoke on the uni
yersity and the twentieth century offer.

meut OF literary work.

About the Game Laws

To the Editor Of the Ledger.
STURGEON, NO., Aug. 1s.-Dear Sir;
In the last Issue of the LEDGER / no.
tice under "Game Laws'' you say
chickens and qusils may be legally
killed from August is to February 1,
and from October ] to January /, re-
spectively; also plovers, doves and
meadow-larks from August / to Feb
ruary /.
For fear someone who may not
know the laws on game may be mis-
led and thus caused to violote the law,
l humbly submit the following, taken
from the AmericdR Field of August
10, which publishes the game laws of
all the states and territories. Quails
and chickens from November 1 to
January i; doves, larks and plovers
from August / to January /. The
above, l think, lie correct without a
doubt. A SUBSCRIBER.
The LEDGER, in answer to q re-
quest, published extracts from the
game laws contained in the revised
statutes OF Missouri for 1889, but the
laws have been revised since then; Of
this fact the writer had no knowledge.
