PRESS HERE STILL WORKS ON

Several Thousand Bales Awaiting to
Be Pressed,
1t is very unusual for the cotton
congresses to be operated at this sea-
son, as a rule the business closing IN
February, bat there are still several
weeks work ahead for the Americus
compress. This is due to the fact that
a large portion of the cotton crop has
been held, and is still in the ware
houses. In the Americus warehouses
there are still more than 1000 bales
cotton; Ella7ille has 1000 bales, while
in all the smaller towns in this terri
tory considerable quantity of cotton is
held. All this will eventually come to
the Americas press, and the operating
season here will thus be prolonged into
the summer months, quite likely.

A Contrast Between To-day and Twen
ty-s7ve Years Auo,

Twenty-Five years ago there was not
single school In central Africa. To-
day there are nearly 10 In the Liy-
ingstonia mission alone. Twenty-Five
years ago no one in central Africa
knew letter Of the alphabet. To-
day there are more than 10000 schol.
ars In the schools, says the Southern
Workman. Twenty-Five years ago
there was no Christian in all the coun.
try. To-day 300 native teachers preach
Christ in the villages every Sabbath
day. Twenty years ago there was
but one inquirer after Christ. Last
year there were more than 5000 cate
>chumens In the baptism classes. and
in a single day. at one OF the stations,
more than 800 adults were received
by baptism into the church Of God.
Up TO 1890 slave caravans were as
numerous as ever To-day a strong
British protectorate has made slave
raiding impossible, and this much is
certain. that II Christianity had not
entered Nyasaland there would be no
British administration there to-day,
and central Africa would still be a
land OF darkness, of spoliation and OF
blood.

up samples OF the whole "kish" OF
