MORE MONEY FOR MISSIONS.
Much interest Manifested In Spread
of the Gospel.

Nashville, Tenn, May 5.-The sixty.
third session of the board of mis-
sions of the Methodist Episcopal
church, South, met here today. The
whole work of the board of missions
both in the home and in. foreign fields
will pass under review at this meet
ing.
The fields were separately consid-
cred and appropriations made for
maintenance of the missions therein
by the bishops, ex-officio members of
this board.
In addition to the foreign mission
work in China, Japan, Corea, Brazil,
Mexico and Cuba, quite an extensive
line of work is being projected by
this board in the home field. The
total income of the board for the fis-
cal year has been $59S,O56. This is
an increase over the past year of $751;
5S3. The most remarkable fact of
this financial exhibit is that more
than 100000 of the whole amount
was in special requests, the increase
in that line being $6O,565 over last
year. Twenty annual conferences
have paid their assessment in full,
some of them more, and there is a
growing disposition to go beyond the
assessment.
