the friends of the army here 800 for
the advancement of the work. Capt.
Donaldson recently came here from
Joliet to relieve Capt. H. X. James,
who has been unfit for duty on &C
count of illness. Capt. James probably
will return to his home in Kansas.

tended to many different branches of
sociology at the same time that its
distinctly evangelistic work has been
vigorously pushed. From 100000 to
$50, 900 conversions have been annually
recorded during the past 10 years in
connection with the worldwide opera
tions, while in America the annual
conversions have ranged during this
period from 10000 to $4,000.
For the homeless classes cheap no
tells have been provided for working
men, and others for women. Here, at
prices ranging from to 25 cents,
warmth, shelter, bathing facilities. a
