President Johnston's report reviews
the various activities of the churches
OF the organization throughout the
country, as shown in reports filed with
the synOdical chairman by the heads
OF the several conferences. Progress
Of church work, in general, has been
most satisfactory, according to the
report, which. however, points out IN
emphatic terms lines in which i'm
proyements should be effected.
Needs of the home mission is the
most immediate problem now facing
the synod. says DR.. Johnston, especial
~ as pertains TO the work of building
new churches and supporting them in
the more sparsely settled parts of the
country. Just as pressing, however, is
the necessity Of taking care of the
thousands OF observation-disclosures, pc
tential church members. who are
crowded in the large cities.
CHURCH MUST AID FALLEN.
1T Is the duty Of the church TO labor
to win over these people says the
report. yea, it is her duty to &c

Doncaster. Eng, June 13.-Because
an innocent woman was charged with
the crime, and in danger of conviction,
Miss Lillian Lenton, the militant suf-
fragete, has surrendered to the police
and confessed that she set fire to the
Westheld house here, burned several
days ago.
Miss Lenton probably now will be
tried. not only for the outrage here
but for other burnings. She destroy
ed the tea pavilion in the Kew gar.
dens last year. and when jailed went
on a hunger strike, thus securing her
liberty.
Miss Lenton was not suspected OF
the outrage here, and had consider
able difficulty in convincing the police
that she was the guilty party.
