Swedish Sal Is.

Elder ]. n. Erickson Whites from Mall
mo, Sweden. Aug. l6.
Since our last conference which was
held here April q, the thirteen Elders
which have labored here In Skane con-
ference, have shown themselves very
jealous In the great work. While only
very few have been baptized, yet the
Elders feel that the good seed has been
gown and they await the Lords own
due time for the harvest
Since Apostle Francis NJ. Lyman. as
president OF the European mission, de-
clded 10 visit every conference In Eu-
rope under his jurisdiction. u became
necessary TO convene conference at
many places somewhat earlier than
usual and this was the case here.
Conference convened here last Tues
day and Wednesday evening, Aug. IL

Apostle Lyman and wife and Pres
Anthem l.. Schanky, with Elder John r.
Peterson. as Interpreter, and Carl. Carl
son, came over from Copenhagen early
Tuesday and learning that no meeting
could be held this evening, Apostle Ly-
man and wife spent the day in quiet
rest
We were very fortunate In securing
suitable hall tFolketshus) and through
advertising quite freely we had fine
audience. both nights The first even

LONE STAR CONFERENCE.

Work in That Field.

Elder A. b. Randall writes from Wa
co, Texas. as follows:
At present we have eleven Elders en-
deayoring to carry the glad tidlngs OF
great 10y 10 Gods chosen ones In this
part The Elders have enjoyed much
better health this summer thus far
than they did during the warm months OF
the previous year. Notwithstanding
the fact that this has been one Of the
hottest summers that Texas has exper-
fenced for many years Since May
conference our numbers have been
swelled by the addition Of thirteen new
members. Twenty-one children have
been blessed. A great amount of lit
erature has been disposed OF and sew
eral well attended meetings have been
held
Last week Elders A. II. Randall. N.
A. Anderson. G.. ]. Walser and G. II.
Craner commenced a systematic can
yass of the City OF Waco. Religious
fervOr is at very low tide here. Peo-
pie accept the literature quite willing
ly, but the open air meetings ara poorly
attended.
While rejoicing over the thriving con-
dltion Of this conference, we were sud-
denly called to mourn the loss OF one
Of our most true and devoted sisters
Hannah Scogglns, wife of j. II. Scog-
gins, of Liberty Hin, Tex. who depart
ed this life on Sunday. August g. Sis
ter Scogglns was baptized with her hus-
band. Sept. H. 1893 by Elder x. ].
Harding. From the date Of her bap-
tism up TO her death she continued a
faithful Latter-day Saint. She leaves
a husband, five children and a host OF
friends
The Elders extend their heartfelt
sympathy TO the bereaved father and
children.
The News" Is an ever welcome Wis
itor and is much appreciated by Saints
and Elders.

DISTURBANCES AT MEETINGS.
hut the Elders Are Surrounded by
Friends aud Hold the Fort"

Elders q. Arden Waters and Alma
NJ johnson send this report from
Rockford, H.. Sept. 4:
We are living with family of
Saints at l2i North Wlnnebago street,
giving us the opportunity OF holding a
cottage meeting every Sunday morn
Ing.
We hold street meetings every even
ing when the weather is favorable,
having as a rule a good attendance
with little or no disturbance. But
where the work of the Lord is pro-
crossing there Satan Is always active,
ever trying 10 prejudice the minds Of
the people and overthrow the work aC-
complished.
On the evening Of the End inst. he did
all In his power seemingly TO break up
out street meeting, but the Lord had
friends prepared to defend us, conse-
ouently the plans OF the evil one were
thwarted Yet three unsuccessful at
tempts were made to disturb US. The
next evening we held forth upon the
same corner, but we presume the dis
turber of the previous meeting con-
cluded we had too many friends for
we were unmoested and had the PRIV
ilege OF again bearing out testimony
10 a fair-sized audience Of attentive
listeners.
We believe that some time. not far
distant, an organized branch OF the
Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-day
Saints viii be found In Rockford.
With the help Of the Lord We hope
60 be able to advocate the principles
Of truth successfully. Should there be
any readers OF the News" that have
friends or relatives IN this part Of the
Lords vineyard, II their names are
forwarded TO US, We will be pleased
60 make them call.
The News" always receives a hear
~ welcome, being appreciated by
Saints and friends alike.

NORTH TEXAS CONFERENCE
Great MuIttudes Listen to The teachings
Of The Elders.
A Number OF Investigators IL the
Result Of che Testimonies
Given.

Elders Il. c. Pulsipher and NJ. j.
Blackburn write from Santo. Tex, Sept.
9Th.
At our conference held near Cumby,
Hopkins county, we were assigned to
labor together In Palo. Pinto county.
We took our departure June Ord. and
after walking about two hundred miles
arrived at our field Of labor June 18th.
We found very generous people, but
also much prejudice. Our meetings
were poorly attended and little inter-
est seemed 10 exist. As our work has
progressed prejudice has given way.
and now many are anxious to hear the
Gospel truths.
At Red Bluff schoolhouse we held
series Of seytn public meetings. On
account OF short notice the first was not
very well g'tended but as the dews
spread, people locked In until the mouse
and yard Weff full OF attentive listen
yrs, stii'e OF whom became much inter-
es.ed. Many were willing 10 take 'us
home aud listen further 10 the message
Of glad tldings. Last week at Liveoak
schoolhouse we enjoyed rich out
pouring Of the Holy Spirit, AS before
the first meeting was poorly attended,
but those who came made themselves
heralds In spreading the news, and as
result we had the pleasure OF talking
TO people from four Joining counties. In
various neghborhoods meetings Of the
different sects were In session. but peo-
pie left these meetings and came from
miles around to hear about Mormon
ism" Some came OF curiosity. some of
pure interest.
During the series Of six public meet
ings our audience continued TO grow
until at the last meeting the house
could not accommodate the audience.
We have a great many kind friends,
some Of whom are investigating the
Gospel principles. The work OF the
Lord is progressing In this part OF His
vineyard. People are beginning to think
for themselves. We occasionally meet
man who has been TO Utah. and he
Is invariably our friend. for he IL ac-
quainteo with our people.
