The Vast Field of Southern ASIA
Nal. /. II; Matt. s. IL John

lU. IL.
What is known as Southern Asia
in our missionary work embraces all
of India, Bombay, Bengal, Burma,
Malaysia, and the Philippine Islands.
There are eight Mission Conferences
and Missions in this field. Nearly or
quite two hundred thousand dollars
are annually expended here by the
Parent Board, besides large sums by
our Woman's Foreign Missionary So
ciety India alone is vast continent
containing three hundred millions of
intelligent peoples. This is in many
respects the most promising and sue
cessful mission field of the church.
Four missionary bishops have juris-
diction in this field. They are Bis
hops Thoburn, Warne, Robinson, and
Oldham.
India Is a continent more than
country, and contains one fifth of the
population of the world. It's people
belong to the Aryan race, like our
own, and are governed by the Anglo
Saxon. The people are philosophers,
and are mainly Hindus. Brahmans.
and Mohammedans. Nine tenths OF
the people live in villages averaging
three hundred and sixty to the vii.
lage. Yet there are many great and
populous cities. Great wealth exists
in many localities, Yet India is so
many-sided that there are sixty mil.
lions. so poor that they never went
to bed other than hungry. Our work
began in India In 1856 under the great
DR.. Butler. To-day we have four
great Annual Conferences, and nearly
one hundred thousand members and
probationers. Christian colleges and
native preachers with a rapidly eX-
pandfag work promise permanency
to this yreaI church. The opportuni
ties are exciting and the responsibili.
ty appalling. Men and money in in
creasing streams should be poured in
to India this quadrennium.
The Philippines is a most interest
ing field. Under the splendid work
of DR.. Stuntz and his fellow mission
aries. we have made a most promising
showing in these islands. The
Aglipay movement has opened the
way for Protestant work With near
ly ten thousand members there now
we mey expect to rapidly increase
during the present quadrennium. In
harmony with the plans Of the Evan
gelical Union we limit our denomlna.
tional work to certain districts. We
have equal privileges In Manila with
other churches. and to the north the
choiceyt parts of Luzon. The island
of Madonna has opened to us One
Of the most hopeful of our Mission
felds is in the Philiuni"e Islands.

There is but one merit, and that ia the

the doctors curio collection of dogs
and he goes about with ear but for the
stentorious bark of dog he can Sc

dog capable of midnight serenades, or
rather a quartette of male dog voices,
is another accomplishment of the dog
