stated to reporter: THE war can
not be ended by 10000 or even 80. 900
men; it will require at least 1OO, 900 men
to subdue the islanders. While the
statement that the F'ilipinos have no
heart in the war is correct, yet they are
so under the complete control of the
priests and Aguinaldo that they fight
until the last" He thinks that not
many of the boys will remain and en-
list, because most of the boys have a
better thing at home, and those that
have not are perfectly convinced that
they have had enough war experience.

The regular ministerial relations of
Rev. r. H. Reed closed with last Sun
day evenings cervices. Mr.. Reed at
tended the conference at Livingston,
from where he went to his home in
Ohio. About the middle of September
he will enter college at Evanston, ILL.,,
where he will remain two or three
years. The vacancy in the Sunday
school superintendency caused by Rev.
Reeds departure was filled last Sun
day by advancing the assistant super
intendent. c. p. Newell, to that office.
Rev. Reed has been with this charge
two years and has a wide circle of
friends who regret his departure. His
remarks in his farewell sermon were
appropriate. Among other things he
said Il am now certain that l have
erred in Judgment frequently. but it
was through my weakness and not in
tentional l have made many friends
here whose memory l shall long cherish
If those who claim l have wronged
them will only show me my error l am
ready and willing to ask forgiveness.
Any UNCONVENTIONAL prejudices l may
formerly have possessed have vanished,
for my work here has convinced me
that true Christians of all creeds can
work harmoniously together even
though they differ upon minor points.
