Presbyterian board.
Today the Presbyterian Press at
Shanghai is perhaps the largest pub

forth Bibles. books. tracts and maya

per annum, and is Distributing them
all over China. In addition there is
the Mission Press of the American
Methodists, which is papering the
country with Christian Literature of
one kind and another.
Both Of these establishments are
publishing school books.
AS to Bibles, they are distributed
by the American Bible Society, which

10000 volumes per year, and alto

4 Great Educational Work.
But I started to speak about mis-
sion schools. They are to be found
everywhere. There are boys schools
and girls schools, and kindergartens
for both sexes. There are primary
schools, intermediate schools and high
schools, as well as college of arts.
medicine and theology. The Catho-
lies have a university at Shanghai
and a college and industrial school at
Secawel, five miles from Shanghai.
viii fifty other schools near by, hay
ing an attendance altogether of $3.50
pupils. They are doing some educa-
tlonal work in other cities, but as FAR
as [ can lear they are by far sur

ed, and in time China will have it's

Young Mems Christian Association.
a new influence which has recently
come into Asia is our Young Mems
Christian Association. 1t is already
one of the live forces Of this part of
the world, and is doing wonders along
educational and other lines. 1t has
now a firm foothold in Japan, where
the Toxic branch has a ~magnificent
building with some thousand mem
bers. At Seoul a big modern structure
has been put UP by John Wanamaker,
and the society is the most popular
young mems club of the Korean capt.
tai, while here at Shanghai the institu-
ton building has, with its lot, cost
something like $500, 900, and is as fully
equipped as the average Y. M. {. A.

This Shanghai institution has a lee

which attracts the better class OF Chi
nese young men. The SchOOlrOoms
which, when the building was opened,
were supposed to be large enough for
the next ten years. were taxed to their
utmost capacity before the first year
was ended, and they are now occu-
pied from morning until late at night.

The great education movement
which is now going on in China was
started by the missionaries and is
largely carried on by them. Many Of
them are teaching in the hines SOW
eminent schools. and most Of the
books are of their composition. The

made by the first Protestant mission

Protestant missionaries have over
1000 primary schools and $50 high
schools and colleges. In the primary
schools $4,000 boys and more than
1000 girls are now in attendance, and
in the higher schools there are u, 900
young men and almost 5000 young
women These seem but small num-
bers in comparison with the thirteen
or fourteen million pupils in our pub
lie schools, but each of these Chi
nese students will be a working force
in the reorganization of the empire.
and this will he especially SO with the

girls are crying for Chinese teachers,
and the missionaries tell me that it is
almost impossible for them to hold
their girls until they graduate, be-
cause Of the salaries Offered them
to leave and go teaching outside.
The Medical Work.
There is one phase Of mission work
which IS approved of by both Chinese
and foreigners. The Chinese vel

support. | refer to the medical mis-
sions. They are doing an enormous
amount OF good. They are to be
found in all the large centers and the
doctors connected with them could, If
they would, leave n make fortunes
by practicing among the wealthy Chi
.nese. notwithstanding this, they
stay with their work and, on pitifully
low salaries, wear themselves out.
The Protestants have now in China
166 hospitals and PAL d~ispensaries.

The missionaries have been labor

Catholics were the first on the
ground. They were here represent
ed by the HISTORIANS as far back as
the eighth century, II when Marco
Polo visited Cathay he found Cath
olics here. Later still came the
Jesuits, led by ST. Francis Xavier,
who like Moses died when on the
edge Of the promised land, and &C
lively pushed by Matthew Ricco, who
was making converts in the Yangtse
valley less than 100 years after Co
lumbus discovered America. 1t was
Jesuit priests who made the peauti-
full astronomical instruments at
Peking, and who introduced the first
inkling of western civilization CEN
turtles ago. Since the Catholics Of
other denominations have come, and
now there are here Franciscans, Au-
gustians, V%incentians and missions Of
that church from Belgium, France,
Spain and Germany.
According to a geography of China
just issued by the J~esuits, the Cath
Ollie church now reckons it's following
at 1000, 600 believers who have been
baptized. 1t has forty-tWo bishops,
100 priests and about 5000 chapels.
Of its priests 1900 are foreigners.
The Work of the Protestants.
AS to the Protestants, their for
eign staff now numbers about thirty
five hundred, of whom less than 1900
are men and almost 1000 are wo-
men. Of the latter 1000 are mar
ried and s84 single. The protest
ants have more than five thousand
mission stations scattered over the
empire, and they claim altogether
about $4,000 of a Christian COM
munity. They began their work only
a little more han a hundred wears
ago and at first made way but slow
ly. AS far back as seventy wears
since they had only six commune
cants. In 1853 they had no more
than $50 and in 1865 only 1000. Ten
years later their converts had in
creased to $4,000. and in the next
decade that number had doubled. At
present there are between two and
three thousand native Protestant
congregations, and their baptized Chi
nese number about 100000. The
missionaries claim that this increase
is gratifying, and say that ii they ad-

Marsh Gave Out Interviews Which
Were intended to Influence Panaman

not divulSed, the state department has
relieved K. Q. Marsh. of his duties as

and ordered him to report at the state
department for duty therein Charles
Campbell. Jr.. of Missouri, at present
third secretary of the American en-
bassy at Toxic, VIII replace Marsh at

Doubtless these changes are the out
come OF the unpleasant situation Gre
ated IN Panama by the publication of
reputed interviews with Marsh. declar-
ing the purpose of the United States
to intervene in the approaching cleo
lions for acting president i'll the event
certain candidates We're elected. Marsh
was directed to repudiate these alleged
statements, and dispatches from the
isthmus indicate that he explained he
had misunderstood his Instructions
There is another side to the case
however, it is now reported, tho the
state department declines to confirm
or deny 1t. that Marsh was the victim
of misrepresentation and deception at
the hands of one of the dominant party
leaders. who WAS a candidate for office
However. that may be. the state do
partment reached the conclusion that
Marsh's efficiency was impaired, and
decided a change was necessary
