A CURIOUS ATTACK.
President Harper OF Chicago Universe
t.. is the object of a curious attack made
bv the Polish Catholics through their
religious press 1t will be remembered
that the President of Chicago University
has just been to Russia, whsre he saw
the Emperor about the founding OF 4
chair in Russian language and literature
It is purely an educational move, or
course. and it is only incident of 1t
that President Harper happens to be
Baptist. The Polish press has. however
warned the Polish Catholic congregations
OF Buffalo, Cleveland and Chicago that
the chair Is a Baptist-Russian scheme,
and has appealed to Polish patriotism not
to attend Baptist missions.
The Rev NJ NJ CALICO, the Baptist mis-
sionary at Manzanillo, Cuba, and the
Rev TheophiIe Barocio. pastor OF the
Baptist church at Santiago, report their
work much injured by reports emanating,
they say. from Roman Catholic sources
to the effect that Baptist missionaries in
Cuba are political agents of the United
States Government. Appeals have been
issued to the Cuban love of independence.
not to turn Baptist and so help on the
scheme of annexation. The work at Man
Zanillo has not been much injured by the
reports. but that at Santiago, where there
IS q fine new Baptist church costing Sl6,-

Home Mission Society has issued a state
ment for local publication refuting its
political connection with the American
Government.
About three thousand Christian Endea-

ships had been chartered and were to

other twenty per cent. returned home. A
