Minnesota Missionary Field Of the Presby-
terrain Church After Twenty Years of Service
It is probable that, owing to ill
health, Rev. DR.. R. N. Adams of Min
neapolis will retire from active man
agement Of the missionary field Of the
Minnesota Presbyterian synod.
DR.. Adams has had charge of the
Minnesota field for twenty years and
for the first eight years of his superin-
tendency, the two Dakotas were also
included in his jurisdiction. He has
personally durin & this time covered
every part Of the great district under
his jurisdiction, and is familiar with
every little detail Of Presbyterian
church work in each missionary circuit.
With headquarters in a Minneapolis
rected the campaign of the church for
the advancement Of christianity with
telling effect and it will be hard for
any successor to begin to take his
place. y =,
Not only is DR.. Adams well, known
in church circles Of the northwest, but
is popular in the G.. A. r., having
served with honor during the civil war,
retiring with the rank Of general.
The extent of what he has accom-
plished for the Presbyterian church in
the field under his supervision, is best
shown by the twentieth annual report
he recently presented at the meeting Of
the state synod at Westminster church.
,, The report showed net increase of
churches to the number Of 1877, and
that during his service there was
erected 1854 church buildings and II
manses; and the membership of the
Presbyterian church in this synod has
increased from scarcely 5000 to $4,000
within the period of his work
The synod reelected DR.. Adams to
continue his labors, but on account of
i'll health which has come upon him
with advancing years, he will probably
retire at the end Of this ecclesiastical
year, April /. The. home board at New
York, under which DR.. Adams conducts
the missionary work of this, synod, has
asked DR.. Adams to take vacation

PERIL OF BANKRUPTCY
NOW C0NFR0NTS CUBA
Only Extensive Retrenchment Can
Prevent Financial Crash,
Declares Ladd, 4:
By Publishers Press.


Havana, Oct. 27.-Only immediate
and extensive retrenchment can save
Cuba from bankruptcy at the expiration
of the fiscal year, ending June 80, 1907.
This is the gist of thereports made
by Major Ladd, who has been investi-
eating the finances of the former re-
public.
The estimated cost of the recent revo-
luton, according to Major Ladd's fig
ures, IS $5,300,000. Of this, $2,970,571
has actually been paid, leaving an esti-
mated balance to be met Of $2329, 429.
The estimate of budget expenses for
the remaining nine months Of the fiscal
year is $l7,37s,425. In addition there
are special appropriations of So. ?6S, 406.
The cost of Increasing the rural guards
from 5000 to 5000 men is estimated
at $l,000,000. The military occupation
of Cuba is also figured at costing $780,
900, and at least another million will
be required to meet claims arising as
a result Of the recent fighting.
$s1, 100000 Required.
With other obligations total Of
$31, 100000 will be required unless un.
usual economics are practiced to carry
the government thru the year.
On Oct. / the cash balance in the
treasury was $1O,829,197. The esti
mated revenues for the remaining nine
months are $l6,OOO,OOO, a total of $27,
100000 Of assets. This would leave 8
deficit of $4,2OO0OO in round figures.
To avoid this deficit, Major Ladd rec
ommends the strictest economy. Specia
appropriations in the budget, he says
should be curtailed, only absolutely
]. necessary projects being carried out.
i IF his recomme ndations for economic
I ing are carried OUT. Major Ladd be
/ lieved confidence can be restored tx
Cuba s industry and her credit abroad
made good.

was fine music by the choir, an address
by the general missionary, and the pre-
sentation to Professor Williams by the
church as slight token Of appreciation
Of his long-continued service and
friendship gold ring and purse Of
money.
A gladly expectant company gath
cred in the house of worship Of the
Norwegian church at Hillsboro, Oct. 70,
to welcome the new pastor, Rev. s. O..
Borshein. Rev. Olaf Enget, who has
been the pastoral supply for three
months, presided. A welcome to the
state was given by General Missionary
Myron Cooley, a welcome from the Nor
veg ian churches was given by Rev.
Olaf Breeding, of Powers Lake, the Sec
rotary Of the Norwegian conference,
and a greeting and welcome from the
church was given by Rev. Olaf Enget.
A hearty response was given by the
new pastor. A pleasant feature Of the
evening was the presentation of beau
tlful set OF silverware to Mr.. Enget
from the church as an appreciation of
his services as pastoral supply.
The church at Glendale became self
supporting Oct. l, as did that at James
town. It is matter of much gratifca-
ton that these two churches which
have received aid for so long period
are now to become active helpers in
stead of being helped. Pastors Will
liams and Hover are to be congratu-
lated on seeing this take place within
the first year of their passionate with
these churches. The Coopertown church
is making extensive alterations and i'm.
improvements in the house Of worship and
grand reopening Of the house is
scheduled for the near future. With
this heavy expense on hand the church
voluntarily reduced the amount asked
for from the convention and the Home
Mission society. At Lisbon there are
plans afoot for enlarged work. An
especial effort will be made to reach
the young men of the town and win
them to Christ. It will be no surprise
if this church under the energetic lead
ership of Pastor Breasted becomes self
supporting this year.
Rev. L. M. Waterman of Mime
'apolis began work as pastor at Bot
tineau Oct. 7. He was most heartily
welcomed to the state.

New Departure in Christian Endeavor

The Christian Endeavor society of
the Minnehaha M. E. church, Rev. G..
NJ. Heard pastor, has, after careful de-
liberation, unanimously resolved upon a
departure from the conventional method
of conducting it's meetings. Instead of
hap-hazard change Of topics from
Sunday to Sunday, it will take up a
consecutive study Of the Bible, begin
ing this year with study Of primitive
Of Acts Of the Apostles.
The pastor has been invited to guide
the society in these studies. This will
for a time involve the giving up of
rotation in leadership. The meetings
will be held at $3.50 Sunday evenings
and will be open to the public. Some
time will be given each evening to the
cultivation Of sacred music as means
! Of worship.
