The subjects for next Sabbath are,
"The madness of the Prophet, and
Goods signals.
The exposition of the Gospel &c
cording to st. Mark is bringing out
some very profitable discussions, by
the members of the Bible class We
believe that the men of the congre
CATION can fiud no more profitable
way to spend an hour, than by join
ing in these most helpful discussions
The third chapter of Mark is the
basis for our next discussion. Reau
this before you come.
The new century home book, by
Frank DePuy, is given to all sub.
scribers to our church paper the
Christian Advocate The books are
at the parsonage If you take the
Advocate, call and receive your
present. We will not venture a
review of the book, but will say that
It is our conviction that no one can
read the book and not feel a deeper
interest in the place we call home.
TO make home the best place in all
the earth, for boys and girls, for
husband and wife, for all who enter
it is, surely, a laudable ambition
The New Century Home Book will
help you in making a home
Some familiar faces are missed
from our regular church services.
We trust that the ills of our physi-
cal life will give place to general
good health, and that the remairdeI
OF the winter may find us able, not
only to attend the services of the
church, but also to eng ge in any
definite work that we may find to
do for the advancement of the re.
ligious life Of the community.
We desire to express our appreci-
alton for the interest taken in the
sermons on evidences. We believe
the people of Milford, at least appre.
ciate the truth, We trust that this
interest may develop into life and
that in continued worship together
that life may be developed and made
to abide.

PROCLAMATION ENJOINING THEM TO MAKE
MISSIONARIES CONFORM TO LAWS.

MISSIONARIES CONFORM TO LAWS.
Washington. Aug 3-The State Department
has received copy OF a remarkable proclamation
issued by Governor Yuan of Shan-Tung June
q, defining the relation that must exist between
the magistrates and the Christian natives.
The proclamation deals with the subject in
language so energetic as to make It evident that
the Chinese magistrates will not allow the mis-
sionaries to exercise the same influence as here
tofore in local affairs in any other than
ligious matters in the future
Governor Yuan states that he has received
many reports from Chinese officials stating that
unworthy members of the church were prac-
tising their religion simply for the protection It
afforded to them, and were lightly setting aside
the law Of the land. and seeking occasions for
quarrels. and that such affairs were daily in
creasing in numbers"
In reply to appeals to have the foreign cOnsuls
and missionaries devise a method for checking
the trouble Governor Yuan demands to know
why his sub-officials have rot obeyed his pre-
vious instructions requiring them TO administer
justice without regard to whether Of
Tenders are Christians or not. He points out
that the missionaries are merely teachers Of re-
ligion They have authority whatever TO
interfere in the affairs Of the Chinese people. nor
any power to exercise official functions as
everybody ought to know" Therefore. the Cow
ernor enjoins his magistrates to make dis
tinction between Church and people, and to let
no else presume 10 exercise his authority for
controlling the people. He says: The most i'm
portant matter is that justice should be done to
both sides. 1t makes no difference whether the
people annoy the Christians or the Christians
annoy the people; let there be a clear distinc-
tion made between the crooked and the straight,
and II will then be impossible that any occasion
for interference should arise
He md fhat ppODie
Christians because they practise their religion
the officials must vigorously suppress the dis
turbance. while. the other hand, should
member of the Church drag in his religion
when his suit is one that has nothing TO do with
Church matters, and the missionary force him
self into the of interference, then the mag
istrate should not hesitate to controVert and re-
prove. the facts of the case may JUSTIFY. and
deal with the case according to reason
