that was ever moved across an arm

Now, while there is an abundance OF
churches and parsons in the more
populous part Of the State Of Rhode
Island, the western half, in which Co.
nanicut Island is situated. Is thinly
peopled, and has few places of wor-
ship. In order to provide the summer
residents and dwellers in the outlying
district with religious opportunities
the Mission of the TRANSPORTATION
was organized in 1895 at Conanicut
Park. five miles from jamestown.
This Is a summer mission; supported
and attended by people staying in the
hotel and adjacent cottages, and the
services are held in 4 Union Chapel
The summer visitors, among whom
are a good many officers of the United
States Navy with their families, come
chiefly during July and August, but
in the winter only seven families live
at the Park end of the island.
It was, therefore, proposed to build

THE INTERIOR is COMFORTABLE APPOINTED

The stained glass in the windows is
of good color. and all appearance of
crowding has been avoided. The chan
cel without reckoning the little bay
window, is only five feet by eight feet.
but the space has been so we'll al
ranged that there is plenty Of room.
To the left of the chancel is the or
gan, small. fine-toned instrument.
which was presented by the makers.
Between the organ and the chancel
is a brass lectern. and opposite this q
reading desk for morning prayers. The
value of the entire portable church
from belfry to wheels with it's fittings
is $4,000, but the money actually eX-
pended in constructing and fttting 1t
was less than half this sum, because
the manufacturers of church furnish
ings gave nearly all that was required.
The pulpit and lactern. the safe. and
many other articles were given In this
way; while the robes. the cross on the
roof and many other things were pre-
sented by individuals. The oaken al
tar was given by the Rhode Island
branch of the Women's Auxiliary. in
memory of the Rev. Walter Gardner
Webster, who perlshed on the ILL
fated steamer Bourgognc.
In February. 1899, the chapel was
ready to be moved. and 1t was de-
cided to take it to its first station over
the frozen ground. But blizzard set
in, and the work Of moving vas post
poned. On April II opcr-air services
were held on the church grounds, aad
the flag presented by Elisha Dyer, the
Governor cf Rhode Island, was raised.
Next day oxen were brought from
Middletown and the northern part OF
the island, and twenty of them har-
messed to. the chapelwagon. The rear
wheels being slightly elevated on
planks, as soon as the brakes were OF
the building moved almost before tie
oxen had pulled the chain taut. Twice
the chapel fell into pitfalls. but was
successfully extricated. After q stop
for luncheon the sacred edifice was
drawn up on plot of ground whence
it was visible for miles around from
Narragansett Bay and Rhode Island.
The first service in the Chapel of the
TRANSPORTATION was held on April %,
the Sunday after the moving. and the
conservation took place on June 3, the

Great Gift of
New Plants TO
American Farmers

I A most remarkable collection OF rare
economic plants and seeds is now
being worked up by the Department
of Agriculture. Barbour Lathrop. OF
Chicago, with David G. Fairchild, as
assistant, recently completed a tour
of the world. covering a period of two
years, and embracing travels which
amounted to explorations. and Mr.. La
throp has given the results of the eS-
pedition, undertaken at his own ex-
pense, to the farmers of the United
States through the medium Of the Sec
ton of seed and plant introduction Oh
the Department of Agriculture.
The expedition left New York on
December 81. 1898, and returned last
fall, having visited in order the follow
ING countries and sent in from each
living economic plants and seeds for
cultivation by American farmers and
horticulturistS: Jamaica, Grenada, Bar
BADGES, Trinidad in the West Indies;
Venezuela, Colombia. Ecuador, Peru
Chile, Argentine. Brazil, in South
America; Portugal. Tyrol and Bohe-
mia in Austro- Hungary; Italy. Egypt,
Amboina, Banda. Lombok, Bali, Mo-
luccas, Aru and Koi Islands, Tenim-
ber archipelago and New Guinea in
the Dutch East Indies; Hong Kong.
Canton in South China; the Philippine
Islands, Bankok, Siam; Sweden and
Finland, in Northern Europe.
Although it is premature to predict
the fate of these introduced plants. 1t
will be of interest to point out some Of
their prospects and the reasons for
their trial.
A spineless succulent cactus Of the
Argentine suitable for fodder pur-
poses in the desert regions of Arizona.
A series Of West Indian yams. OF
which at least one is superior in flavor
to the Irish potato, suitable for Gull

In Southern California and Arizona.
This is the principal fodder crop OF

The Crusade I'm Brief,

By wholesome food and drink the appe-
tte is satisfied; by alcohol it is excited.
There are few instances of sunstroke
among those who do not use alcoholic
stimulants.
Nervous Britons are worrying again
about the quantity of liquor they drink.
"If drink is doing me harm I will take
none of it for my own sake; if it is doing
me no harm, will take none of it for the
the sake of Others" should be the motto
of every one.
A recent investigation showed that nine.
New York House of Industry were sent
there for crimes resulting from the use of
intoxicating drinks.
A novel scheme has been adopted by the
Sharon PENN liquor dealers. Each week
they secure from the local magistrates a
list of persons arrested for drunkenness,
and then refuse such ones drinks at the
bar.
Miss Hattie Bumgartcn, of New Mil
ford, Conn. has a novel plan for reforming
saloons. The scheme is to have the best
citizens frequent the saloons, not to drink,
but to form a social surrounding of high
order.
While the political power of the saloon
is increasing in Great Britain there are
signs that a storm is rising that may
break with terrific force and may over
throw the traffic in Great Britain and
other lands as we'll.
Drink dulls the moral sense and is hos.
tile to all that is best in man, and for that
reason every wise minister regards chill
dren's temperance societies as one of the
most valuable agencies of his church, when
its object is to get every one to say mo"
to strong drink.

But the surest. straightest road

Where the wildcat fields arc sowed.

Of poverty, sin and shame

And the spirit they sport as game.
Have clean design for your lifc-plan,

Live out in the light of day
And thank the Lord for the honest toll

Who supply the poorhouse bread.

Peaceful Amidst tho Storm.

Trouble we must have. 1t is a cove
'nant blessing. BY this we live. But it
is an environment only. All may be
quiet in the deep dark centre Of our be-
ing, and there. peace may abide. A day
in foreign travel is often recalled. On
the island of Malta the sun shone,
among the trees the birds sang, and The
gardens along the way, spread out on
their rocky beds. were as fragrant as
they were fair. Yet there was storm
on the, sea. In the harbor of Valetta
the ocean vessels were rocked by it az
the cedars on Lebanon by the passing
tempest. Great waves smOte the rock
bound coast. and ~the Sound of the
breakers was heard al along the outer
edge of the ancient Melita. What mat
tered that so long as it was cain and
bright on the island itself. and on It
rested the smile Of heaven? So the
Christian often lives in the environment
Of trouble Storms are abroad. Temp
tations crowd upon him. Enemies are
laundering at the gates. But all may
be all ought to be, peaceful within.
Why not, when Jesus says. "Let not
your heart be troubled. neither let it
be afraid?"-Eev. Robert F. Sample. d.
D., in "Christs Valedictory."
