Graves and Dr.. Simmons died this
year. Please print enough of this
hurriedly written scratch to make
this plain to all.
Think of it, there are on that
compound the Theological Semina-
~ with some fifty students, the
Boys Academy with about hun.
ired, the Girls Boarding school with
something like a hundred their last
year, the Woman's school with
over hundred, the orphanage and
the School for the blind girls, and
only ten members of the mission
there. including Mr.. and Mrs.
Buckner, and only. three of them
men. These same ten missionaries,
in city of sons two millions, haye
the oversight of seven Baptist
churches and preaching halls in the
city and of numerous out stations.
One of these ten missionaries,
DR.. Chambers, with two young
men helping him. has charge of the
China Baptist Publication society
about which I speak so much in these
meetings, which employs some sew
enty Chinese printers and workmen
and gets out over a million pages
of Christian literature month.
This publishing house for the Bap-
lists of all China is located in Can
ton, near the compound of our South
ern Baptist Mission.
Surely these figures are eloquent
of Canton's need for reiEforcements
and explain how eager missionary
is to go back to work that needs
him so.
Mrs. Lake and I are planning to
go back to China earlier than we
had at first planned-we would nat
urally be expected to stay in this
country till the summer of 1913 is
past, and we hope that when you
readers see this statement they will
understand why it will be impossi-
BILE fo7 us to accept any more invi-
tations to speak than we have al
ready accepted. We wish we could
write personal letters to all in
South Carolina and other states,
who are 80 kindly inviting US, but,
as our correspondence grows, this
becomes impossible. Please beg your
readers not to be offended when
only a postal card or notice
through the papers, like this, is all
the reply we can sometimes make
to a letter of invitation. Tell them
we would come if we could, and we
would write if we could, but that
we are drawing on our strength. l
will not say reserved strength! BE-
riously now. and as soon as engage
ments already are fulfilled we must
take a little rest to fit US for the
coming years in China.
Two things:-it is extremely
gratifying to see such an interest in
foreign missions at home; and to
see how the native workers are be-
ginning to bear their share of the
burdens, 80 that ten men and wo-
men can even hold the fort and
mark time while the churches in
the homeland are raising the funds
aud training the recruits for the
Titanic struggle in China of the
next few years-let US not permit
it to be a Titanic wreck! 1t is Gods
work!

Time is the best test Of truth.
Here is a Valley City story that has
stood the test of time. 1t is a story
with a point which will come straight
home to many of us.
G. A. Sollin, GIT Elizabeth st., Val
ley City, N. D., says: II fist began
to have trouble with my kidneys about
five years ago. It started with a sharp
pain through my kidneys and later
settled into steady, dull ache
through my back and loins. The kid
ney secretions became irregular in
passage, causing me much annoyance.
I doctored and used various kidney
remedies, but nothing gave me per-
manent relief until. l began taking
Doan's Kidney Pills. I have since
felt like a different man, practically
all symptoms of kidney trouble hav.
ing lefe.'
A Lasting Cure.
When Mrs. Sollin was interviewed
on February 27, 1913, he said: II have
had no need of kidney remedy since

years ago. You may continue using

Tommy Burns Under
Arrest at Calgary
ALL CONNECTED WITH FATAL
BOUT WILL BE HELD AWAIT
ING FlNDINS OF CORONER.

Calgara, May 27.-Warrants were is.
sued today for the arrest of Tommy
Burns, promoter Of Saturdays prize
fight, when Luther McCarty met his
death, William Mccartney, McCarty's
manager; Referee Eddie Smith, and
several trainers and attendants con-
nected with the fight.
These developments followed an Or
der from the attorney general at Ed
monitor, that all principals in the ar
engagements of the fight be arrested
and the northwestern mounted police
were instructed to execute the order
at once.
Arthur Pelky, McCarty's opponent
in the fatal ring appearance, was ar
rested shortly after the ex-champion's
death. The charge of manslaughter
will be given a preliminary hearing to-
day. Owing to the decision of the
physicians, who conducted an atopsy,
that McCarty's death resulted from q
dislocation Of the neck, not heart fail
ure as was first announced, it is an
ticipated, the hearing will be adjourn.
ed to await the result of the coroner'a
inquest late today.
The origin Of the fire that destroyed
the Burns arena late last night has not
yet been disclosed. The authorities are
endeavoring to ascertain whether or
not is was caused by incentiaries.
The fatal ending will have the ef-
feet of putting the lid down tight on
boxing bouts in western Canada. Tom
my Burns succeeded for just one year
in running bouts at his arena located
just outside the city limits. Despite
great deal of opposition he kept go.
ing by staging good clean mills be-
tween evenly matched men, which OBJ
waited all superficial brutality. While
the fights have been run as boxing e1-
, hibitions there is no doubt that they
were bona fde prize g6hts. Several
times knockouts have occurred and
fights have been stopped, because Of
the inequality of the principals but
this is the first occasion of an accident
lof any nature.
McCarty started out upon his pugt.
tlistic career in California two years
ago when Tommy Burns staged his
first battle. At that time McCarty was
only 10 years of age, and was a big
husky, raw-boned lad, whose biggest
asset was good nature, coupled with
nerve and determination. At that time
his price for fighting was an invita-
ton. After a couple Of small bouts
here he drifted south where he fought
in preliminaries in different parts Of
the country. His star of fame did not
commence to furn until the search for
a white hope brought him to the sur
face.
