Chicago, March 16.-A special from
Battle Creek, Mich, says: Capt. Nor
man, reputed to be several times
millionaire, has given 100000 to the
Seventh day Adventists Conference, now
in session here. A remarkable incident
in connection with the donation is re-
lated. Among those in attendance is
Elder Il. ii. Westphal who has charge
of their mission in Buenos Ayres. South
America. He came from Southampton
in a Hamburg line boat, and met on
board ship Capt. Norman. The captain
became interested in theAdventist faith
and came to the meetings here. As a
climax he has given the sum of $400, 900.
OF this sum $500 600 will be used by the
general conference, 100000 by the for
eign missionary board, and 500, 900 will
be distributed i'm the work i'm India,
Brazil. Australia and the Argentine
Republic The Adventists believe that
the coming OF Elder Westphal, when he
could not really afford the expense, and
meeting Capt. Norman, was an act of
Providence.
