List of Pastors.
The pastors of the Eastern Presbyterian
Church since that time to the present have
been: Rev. George B. Patch, November L,
1875 to July g. 1881; Rev. 8. s. Wallen,
April 10, 1882, to October %, 1888; Rev. Eu-

December 81 1888; NJ. n. Cornelius June
20, 1890 to March 81, 1898; Thomas c. Eas-
ton (present PASTOR. January d, 1894
The construction of the present edifice was
commenced in the passionate of DR.. Cor
nelius, to whose efforts its ultimate COM
pletion was largely due. He did not live
to see 1t finished, however, and it was COM
pleted and opened under the present pas
torate, although before DR.. Easton had
been formally installed. 1t was first used
sermon being preached by the Rev. t.
Dewitt Talmage. 1t is regarded as the
largest house of worship on Capitol Hill,
and Its location on high ground makes 1t
prominent from almost all parts of the city.
It cost $72315 of which all but $4,000 Is
paid.
The following statistical showing is made:
During the eighteen years previous to Dr.
Easton's coming, there were received into
the church 4T2 members; and for the last
twelve years, while DR.. Easton has been in
charge, 730 persons have united with the
church. During the twelve years OF the
present pastorate. over $4,000. or more
than $1,000 per year have been raised for
church purposes. This does not in
clude the money raised by the various
organizations connected with the church,
which would make the total approximately
| 100000.

375. The Sunday school, under the direc-
ton of M. T. Hyer, numbers over 400. The
present officers Of the church are: Elders,

Foreign Delegates Report.
The most interesting Of the reports OF
foreign delegates was submitted by Elder
e. III. Gates, superintendent of the PACING
Island missions who entertained the dele
gates at the evening session OF the CONFER
ence In speaking of the work in these
fields Elder Gates said:
.'While not the most populous, the mis-
sion fields of the Pacific between the Amer
teas and Asia are the most widely extend

ten degrees west longitude, to the north
west point of Sumatra, in ninety-nve east

FNii Christianity was introduced many
years ago; but, in the general apostasy. the
native races have suffered as much as any

tinued Elder Gates. I'VE have organized the

the mother church. The idea Of forming
this congregation, he said, was born In the
house of DR.. Kelly's father, and he had be-
gun his ministry in the chapel OF this
church with interest and sympathy. DR..
Kelly declared that the greatest institution
in the world today is the Church of God.
This does not mean the building In which
the worship is held. but the body of be-
levers who gather within 1t. In all the BIZ
BILE the house temple or habitation of God
Is associated with individuals in living
union with Christ. Paul designated the
house Of God as the church OF the living
God, to contrast 1t with the lifeless idols of
the temple Of Diana.
THE house Of God is no hfeless shrine of
a hfeless image, which knows nothing and
cares nothing about what goes on in its
temple. but congregation Of immortal
souls and bodies that are temples of the
living God. AS living God he enters with
man into relation of Fellowship which is
experienced inwardly, especially as a God
who bears and answers the longing Of liv-
ing souls. God Is the author of all the
worlds life; He Is the causation of all en-
ergy in the church. This truth exhibits the
real dignity and glory of Christian church.

anything inherent in the church. nor In any
thing that is self -derived; 1t is not found in
