cRoATs COMING NOW.
Still Another Element Being Added
to the Cosmopolitan POpuIa-
ton of This Country.

Croatia is officially described in the
somewhat complicated geographical
subdivisions of Austria as "a province
of the empire forming with Slavonia
a kingdom united with Hungary" In
til last year the tide of foreign immi-
grafton into the United States, which
has included people of almost every
race and nationality, did not bring
any material number of Croats, and in
the census figures of 1890 it was not
thought necessary to make any sep
arate subdivision for Croats, though
Portuguese residents of this country,
Greeks, East Indians, Turks, Pacific
Islanders, Central Americans and ma
tives of the province of Luxembourg
were separately enumerated. Accord
ing to the figures presented at the
barge Office it appears that in 1898 the
number of Croats who arrived at this
port as immigrants was 6,s37. In 1899
the number was nearly doubled. be-
ing 1854, and, while the figures of
January, 1900, have not been COM
pleted, it is certain that the proper
ton of increase heretofore established
will be maintained this year.
The fact of the matter is that with
the increased prosperity of the United
States since March, 1897, there has
. not only been an increase in the num-
Der of immigrants, but an even great
er increase in the number of coun-
tries from which immigrants have
been drawn to the United States.
Thus, there has been large addition
to the number of Syrian immigrants,
and New York, though the first city
to have a Syrian colony is no longer
the only one. There has been a very
large increase, too, in the number of
Greek immigrants, and there has been
some addition to the number from
Turkey, Portugal and northern Africa.
and a very marked increase in the
number of immigrants from Finland.

ae q torch to kindle the enthusiasm
on this all-im portant subject. OAe
thought led to another, and the bali
commenced rolling. The ministers
gave it push, and by this time many
others had j'lned tho awkward

ing seen but wanted to be heard. The
reason some kept their seats and did
not say anything was because they
didn't get chance. Enthusiasm ran
high. The reputation which the
county seat has attained during the
past year Is astonishing. Get out
among the thrifty. intelligent and
conscientious farmers of the sur

they think about it. Many will tell
you that Phillipsburg IN her attitude

versal idea of the convention that
some of the institutions of our city
had better be going elsewhere and
q good many things be made to stand
still. The remarks by our county
superintendent were not only inter
esting but helpful and encouraging
The committee on nomination com
posed of Mrs McFsll, Mr.. Ferguson
and Mr.. Hsgeman, submitted the fol-
lowing which was approved:
President, @. NJ. Cole; Vice Presi-
dent, Mrs. NJ. L. Heath; Secretary

The committee on resolutions sub
mitted the following which were also
approved.
We return our thanks to our Heav-
emily Father for the preservation of
our lives during the past year and
for the progress of the Sunday School
Therefore be it resolved:
1. That the Sunday School of this
county and township be urged to
more universally observe Temperance
Sunday.
2 RESOLVED: That it is the sense
of this convention that all places OF
business should be closed on the
Lords day.
3 That vote of thanks be ex-
tended to all of our officers for their
efficient services this past year and
also to the trustees of this church for

taken seriously. as they include prac-
tically nothing more than what the
Transvaal government offered prior to
the issuing Of the British uItimatum.
