Struggles and Triumphs- No Color
Line in Local Adventist Church

During the past week the daily pa
pers have had much to say, particular
ly touching the outpOuring of the peo-
pie and the wonderful interest awaken
ed by the meetings which continue to
be held in the tent, 18th and I streets,

generally, of the intentions of the Sew

pices this movement is being conduct

The COlored American, ever alive to
the progress of current events and so
hcitous to present to its readers the
facts of any given situation of race in
terest, promptly despatched one of its
'ferrets" TO develop the facts and pro-
cure an authoritative statement relat-
ing to them. Naturally our representa-
tive sought Mr.. Sheafe and found him
as winning and genial in the privacy
of his home life as he is powerful and
convincing in the pulpit. 1t will, we
know, be OF warm interest TO our read

ers to learn something of the early HE
and struggles of Mr. Sheafe.
He was born of free parents in the
city of Baltimore, Md, in 1859, and
hence is not yet forty-three years of
age. Both of his parents were strong
and GOd-fearing people, bu- his mother
was so in an eminent degree, having
had superior advantages herself, and
she instilled in her sons mind by eX-
ample and precept the beauties of high
principle and of right living. His moth
er's influence and example have always
been the dominating principle o. his
life and her ambition for her son and
her increasing efforts soon awakened
responsive chord in him. His early ed
ucation began with instruction from
his mother in elementary branches
and after some desultory study, he en-
tered Wayland Seminary in this city
and graduated therefrom in 1888 after
a thorough course in theology.
At once he took up the Masters work
even before his ordination, and his
first charge was at Beulah Church,
Alexandria, Va. During his incumben-
CIV there he was regularly ordained
minister of the Baptist Church. In the
fall of 1883 he was called to the Pill
grim Baptist Church at st. Paul, Min
nesota, where he remained until 1892.
1t was while in charge of the work at
s.. Paul that his exceptional qualities
as an orator. organizer and financier
were first brought into active play He
found the church torn with inward dis
sentions. staggering under an immense
debt, and the membership reduced t9 q

grew from thirty-siX (at his first SER

capacity of nine hundred) to such
numbers that the edifice could not ac-

and knowledge of men the actual men,
bership was doubled, every warning ei-
ement was appeased, every cause for
criticism was removed and harmony
was made absolute. During this pc
riod also every legitimate expense was
promptly and amply met, and in addi-

dollars were raised and paid on the
debt of the church.

scantily braced, and with little warn
