MISSION PLANS.

The great future OF the Home Mis-
sions council. just held and represent
irg all home mission societies in the
United States. was the survey now
making in the Rocky Mountain and
Pacific Coast states. The report OF
that survey gave largest emphasis to
towns still neglected in religious teach
ing Some insisted. however, that
waking up dead churches and putting
a stop to overlapping of effort in some
towns must be attended to. The lat
ter purposes came into the council in
speeches. ana not as parts of the reg
ular report. The whole matter is still
being worked upon. A convention for
final reports is to be held next June
or July.
II is just fifty years since education
al work in the South was begun by
people of the North in behalf of ne
groes. AMI during that half century
$50. 100000 have been contributed to it,
celebration of the anniversary is to
take the form of a mass meeting il
New York further to make known needs
of the work, especially of the educa-
tional part of it. The efforts to raise
the standard of colleges for negroes
were put upon working basis and
convention was called at Atlanta on
June II next. In the matter of Indian
work the United States commissioner
of Indian affairs, who was before the
council. reported any number of aven-
ues of usefulness. 1t was voted to
undertake the establishment of a
training school for Indians to work
among their own people.
SO excellent We're felt to be the eff
fects of the dinner held this year, and
attended by secretaries of all foreign
and home soci, ties, that the Home
Missions people voted to hold their
council hereafter during the same week
as the foreign conference. The unity
of missionary effort. quite new be-
tween home and foreign, was regarded
as the great feature of the year. Com
mittees on further study of the rural
church. and its larger service to the
community. were named with the
Rev. DIR. w. II. Wilson of the Presby-
