Y.; and Miss Margaret Ball, +of Orange Park, Fla., with two patrons of the school (white) residing +in Orange Park, were all arrested by the Sheriff at Orange Park, Fla., +on Friday the 10th of April, charged with the crime of teaching young +people of two races under the same roof. They were not taken to jail, +but were given until Monday—the intervening days of Saturday and +Sunday—to procure bail. This esteemed pastor of the Congregational +Church in Orange Park, the most worthy teachers and the patrons are +awaiting trial for this crime! and are only saved from jail by the +bail which has been procured for them. This is as far as the State of +Florida has descended in its shame at present.</p> + +<p>This enactment, which we have been careful not to call a law, was +pronounced by the National Council to be "not only repugnant to +Christian principles, but also opposed to the civil rights guaranteed +by our Constitution," and the Association was called to persistently +resist it with all legal measures.</p> + +<p>Senator Hoar of Massachusetts writes of it: "I am amazed that even in +Florida such things can be done.

RYDER.</div> + + +<p>A reduction in the secretarial force of the American Missionary +Association, in order to cut down current expenses and decrease the +debt, has resulted in a serious loss in the effectiveness of the +collecting field. The office at Cleveland, together with a most +efficient and acceptable district secretary, was discontinued for +economy's sake. The expenses, however, had to be cut down in some way, +and so the burden was placed upon one of the secretaries in the New +York office. With multiform duties already upon the hands of each one +in the administration of the mission field, and almost constant Sunday +service among the contributing churches, it seemed almost impossible +to take up this new burden of work, which in some societies involves +the constant labor of a large number of secretaries. To accomplish an +undertaking which seemed almost impossible the pastors were conferred +with, and cordially and generously promised all the assistance within +their power for the American Missionary Association<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_148" id="Page_148">[Pg 148]</a></span> in its depleted +condition. Right royally did these good brethren redeem their pledge.</p> + +<p>A series of Jubilee Field Days was planned and carried out with great +success and interest, largely through the co-operation of these +faithful brethren in the ministry of the churches in the interior.</p> + +<p>Just a word concerning the plan adopted. A campaign of five weeks was +planned. Jubilee Field Day Rallies were to be held twice every weekday +except Saturday, and as many times on the Sabbath as possible. Ohio, +Michigan, and Indiana were the States to be reached.</p> + +<p>The purpose of the campaign was to instruct and stimulate the churches +and congregations reached. It was also hoped that the collections +would pay all the expenses of this effort to scatter missionary +information and enthusiasm, and that the regular collections of the +churches would be largely increased.</p> + +<p>The speakers consisted of the pastors of the several churches and +missionaries from the fields, and the writer of this article. Just a +word in reference to these friends who presented the work to the +churches. The value of the address of the pastor in each case was very +great. Standing on the vantage ground that an honored and beloved +pastor occupies in any church and community, his indorsement and +earnest and discriminating commendation carried greatest weight. I +desire thus publicly to recognize the service of those generous +brethren in the ministry to the American Missionary Association. That +service was large.</p> + +<p>The colored work was represented by Rev. George V. Clark, pastor of +the Congregational Church at Memphis, Tenn. Born a slave, rescued by +an American Missionary Association missionary from the degrading +influences of a saloon into which he drifted as a lad when freedom +came and no other opening was before him, his testimony and earnest +appeal stirred the deepest convictions of his hearers. The quaint old +slave melodies, which Mr. Clark sometimes heard as a boy in slave +times, and often since by those who are freemen now, he rendered with +peculiar effect. The weird and quaint pathos of these songs coming +originally from the crushed and bleeding hearts of slaves, held the +large audiences in hushed and sympathetic attention. Is there anything +in the world like these slave songs sung by those who have known the +bitterness of slavery?</p> + +<p>From far-away Dakota Miss Dora K. Dodge brought the message to these +several gatherings, of the discouragement and want, the hopefulness +and progress, of the Christian work among the Indians. Her mission, +seventy-five miles out on the prairie, with only Christian +Indians—John Bluecloud and his wife—for associates, is of unique +interest and importance. No one could have told the story of this +wonderful movement among the red people of the<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_149" id="Page_149">[Pg 149]</a></span> prairie with more +simple and earnest eloquence than did Miss Dodge.</p> + +<p>Rev. W. G. Olinger, a native mountaineer, presented the work "Among +the American Highlanders." Born in the humble cabin of the +mountaineer, stirred from his earliest boyhood with the great desire +for education and improvement, he struggled up through great +discouragements, until to-day he can stand on any platform with +interest to those who hear and with honor to himself. His manly +presence is the illustration of the wonderful possibilities of these +mountaineers; and his story is their agonizing cry for the light and +opportunities which only an intelligent gospel and educational +privileges such as the American Missionary Association is bringing, +can satisfy.</p> + +<p>The secretary, who had charge of the campaign, presented "The Claims +of the American Missionary Association on this Jubilee Year."</p> + +<p>The immediate results of this series of Jubilee Field Days were most +encouraging. Nearly twenty thousand people gathered in the various +audiences. Lincoln Memorial Day, celebrated at Oberlin, was most +delightfully spent. Every service during the day, including +Sunday-school, Mission Circle, Endeavor Society, as well as church +services, was an American Missionary Association rally.</p> + +<p>On the Sabbath large churches and towns were reached. During the week +important centers were selected, and many surrounding churches sent +pastors and delegates to the Jubilee Field Day services.</p> + +<p>From a financial standpoint the result was also encouraging. More than +three times as much was gathered as the campaign cost, and pastors and +church members everywhere testified that the meetings were resultful +in spiritual uplift and blessing, as well as in stimulating interest +and greatly increased gifts.</p> + +<p>The general feeling seemed to be that this was American Missionary +Association year, and that during this Jubilee season the specials +should float into this treasury and the regular contributions should +be greatly increased. While <i>en route</i> the joyful message came to us +that the Board and the Home Missionary Society were both out of debt. +When announced from various pulpits by American Missionary Association +speakers, this glorious fact met with cordial applause. All the more +did it seem incumbent upon the churches to take hold of the American +Missionary Association, still burdened with its debt, and lift it out +of the slough of financial despond. This, however, is only the +reflection of the feeling among the churches throughout the land. The +determination to lift the debt of the American Missionary Association, +and to make it possible to continue at least its depleted work, is +universal. Special collections, regular contributions, and hundreds of +individuals taking the fifty-dollar shares in the Jubilee fund, will +accomplish this most desirable result.</p> +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_150" id="Page_150">[Pg 150]</a></span></p> +<hr class="section" /> + +<h2>The South.</h2> + +<h3>THE OPENING CHURCH MISSIONS.</h3> + +<div class="center">BY SECRETARY F.

His +discovery was substantially the Congregational system. He called his +first church "Eureka." It now has nine other churches associated in +the same work. A mission preacher, a devoted man residing near, a man +who<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_151" id="Page_151">[Pg 151]</a></span> is highly respected by all the people, has immediate charge of +the Eureka work and holds the Sunday-school and other services.</p> + +<div class="figright" style="width: 300px;"> +<img src="images/img163a.jpg" width="300" height="270" alt="A PASTOR'S HOME." title="" /> +<span class="caption">A PASTOR'S HOME.</span> +</div> + +<p>The abodes of many of the plantation preachers are as simple and +humble as those of their people. We give an illustration of one of +these homes. Usually there is a division into two or perhaps three +rooms. Sometimes a small lean-to is built at the side or end, for use +as kitchen. The chimney, erected on the outside, is often constructed +of clay bound with sticks. It starts in a broad fireplace of stone, +which warms the whole building. Some of these cabins have small glass +windows; others of them have only openings for windows, with wooden +shutters. In such dwellings there reside vast numbers of the +plantation preachers, and some of our own mission preachers, at the +early stages of mission work in the back country.</p> + +<div class="figleft" style="width: 300px;"> +<img src="images/img163b.jpg" width="300" height="228" alt="MARIETTA CHURCH AND PARSONAGE." title="" /> +<span class="caption">MARIETTA CHURCH AND PARSONAGE.</span> +</div> + +<p>The picture given herewith of the church, parsonage, and school, in +Marietta, Georgia, illustrates very many of the American Missionary +Association church missions in the South.

Such a school as that in Andersonville, Ga., is the initiative +of a church mission.

A great deal of hard work in the school would be frittered +away and lost without the distinctive church work which must +supplement, and confirm it. To send the pupils back into the Egyptian +darkness of most plantation and country churches is, for vast numbers, +to throw away all that has been done for them.

At Shady Grove, ten miles away, a small church building is +going up for the brotherhood there. The ground was given and the work +of building is carried on by a respectable colored farmer of the +neighborhood, who with many of his neighbors welcomes a church +fellowship which stands for education and pure religion.

A. T. BURNELL.</div> + + +<p>You will be interested to hear of the gracious revival we have had the +past three weeks under the lead of the English Evangelist, Rev. James +Wharton. Over 400 have professed Christ, and of these 140 were +enrolled in Burrell School. To the very end of the meetings, +"mourners" came forward, once in the church as many as fifty; but this +was exceeded in immediate results at two schools where as many as +fifty accepted Christ, after the briefest address. Following the +Oberlin plan, I offered prayer with each class one day; the next, I +suspended my recitations for a continuous prayer-meeting, permitting +pupils to elect this instead of a class or study-period (certain +grades, certain hours). At another time, instead of chapel the +grade-teachers retained the Christians while the rest were addressed +in the chapel,—the majority falling to their knees for prayer to rise +in peace. Of course we have had regular prayer-meetings, with +volunteer room gatherings at noon and like groups in the yards at +intermission. When, on account of the late meetings each night, it +seemed best to close at noon, most of the school gathered for a +meeting in the chapel; and, with several after meetings, large numbers +spent that half-holiday in the building, praying for and laboring with +classmates. A member of<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_156" id="Page_156">[Pg 156]</a></span> Grade Eleven, for whom special effort had +been made, came out at this time.</p> + +<p>Some of the converts have made detailed confession of sins (stealing, +<i>e.g.</i>); some who have been neglectful of school privileges have +returned to get the religious impetus; and at least two that had been +dismissed for meanness have experienced a change of heart. We shall +look for permanent results, and work to that end with hope; yet this +people are so emotional and so stolid! so ready to move along a +certain line in a body, but indifferent to duty when it leads along an +uninteresting path of individual effort. Indeed, the home life of many +is unfavorable to genuine Christianity; some being persecuted, even, +because they have not seen a vision, till they are made to believe +they "have got nothing."</p> + +<p>Mr. Wharton preaches the pure and simple gospel plainly and vividly; +is attractive in person and of commanding presence. At his departure +there were many expressions of regard and grateful remembrance, and he +will always have a warm place in the affections of Selma people, who +have been impressed in so short a time by the life and words of this +man of God.</p> + +<hr class="section" /> + +<h3>COTTON VALLEY, ALA.</h3> + +<div class="center">BY A TEACHER.</div> + + +<p>I have been asked to tell something of the work and school in Cotton +Valley. Hence I send a little description of it as it appears to a new +teacher, just having entered the missionary field.</p> + +<p>There are many features about the work here that make it a most +interesting one. First, it is situated in a dense black belt, where +the people are anxious to improve, and are appreciative of all that is +done for them. Next, Cotton Valley is quiet and retired, being forty +miles from Montgomery, nine from Union Springs, and thirteen from +Tuskegee; so that, while we are enabled to teach without interruptions +that break into school life in cities, we are yet not so far removed +as to be incommoded when business necessitates our going to a city.</p> + +<p>Doubtless Miss Lilla V. Davis, the pioneer, founder, and principal of +our school is well known to most of the friends and helpers of the +American Missionary Association, but, for the sake of those who are +not so well informed, and because hers is a story worthy of being told +anew, I will say a word of her whom all Cotton Valley delights to +honor. She, ten years ago, left her home in Boston, Mass., and coming +down here under the most adverse circumstances, and in the midst of +the lowest humanity, established this school. Her teaching in those +days was not so much from books, but she went into the homes of the +people and made them feel that she was one of them. She talked and +read<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_157" id="Page_157">[Pg 157]</a></span> to them, taught them the rules of decency and virtue, and that +cleanliness is next to godliness. Thus, step by step has she been +leading them on until now, instead of a valley of ignorance, it is "as +a city set on a hill, whose light cannot be hid," for instead of a +one-room-log-cabin we have a nice, comfortable school building, +planned and furnished in modern style. I mean by this, that what we +have is up-to-date and not that we have all we need, for our largest +room, the one we call and use as our chapel, needs settees, +blackboards, maps, and lights; and last but not least, we need a +piano, as at present our only musical instrument is a baby organ, +which is now so nearly worn out that many of the reeds instead of +responding to the touch of the solicitous performer sit in silence, +considering themselves too aged to jump up and down, and take part in +such active service.</p> + +<p>Our school this year is larger than ever, and our students, I think, +would compare well with those of more favored schools in cities. The +present enrollment is nearly two hundred, and when the weather is +good, and all are in, we find the work rather heavy, as there are only +three teachers, and we all believe in thorough work.</p> + +<p>We have a large and interesting Sunday School to which the parents as +well as the children come; also a Christian Endeavor Society, and a +Circle of King's Daughters.</p> + +<p>Perhaps it would be interesting to say, that the relation of the white +people of the settlement to the school is most friendly. They respect +Miss Davis to the highest degree, and are willing and glad to show any +favors to her or her teachers.</p> + +<p>Thus far, I have shown you only the favorable side of the picture, but +I would beg my readers to remember that it has also a painful side. +Those we are teaching are the children of ancestors who have lived for +centuries in darkness and ignorance, with only eleven years of light; +and there is still a great work to be done here. We find it necessary +to instruct them, not only in books, but along the lines of all the +virtues which go to make a man a man, and a woman a woman.</p> + +<hr class="section" /> + +<h3>IMPARTIAL TESTIMONY.</h3> + +<div class="center">BY REV.

D.</div> + + +<p>Three years ago in our visit to the Indian homes, we found +Netkuschiripas (Little Eagle) on his bed unable to get out of the +house. Mary, his wife, washed for white people, hoed corn, and +tenderly cared for him. He told me he believed in Jesus and would join +us as soon as he could come out. It did not seem that he ever would +get better then, but his faith put new life into his body, and two +years and a half ago he was baptized in church, and got about to do a +little work now and then. This fall his working days came to an end. +He could only lie on his bed or sit in the sun at the door. Mary had +to haul the firewood and nurse him, as well as work out. For a while +they stayed at a neighbor's house, but an old Indian woman insisted +that he should wear his beads and other heathen adornments. He refused +to do so, saying that now he was a different person. As this annoyance +was kept up he and Mary left and stayed by themselves in a dug-out on +the south side of a bank on the edge of a willow bottom. His bed was a +few boards with a straw mattress and a few quilts. The room was +lighted by a single sash—the rude shelter of two of God's children. +When he felt himself sinking, he said: I do not know what God's will +for me is, but whatever it is I am ready. I have no fears. The day +before he died he said: I have one heart. I trust only in Jesus; I +have said this to you often. We laid him away just after the morning +meeting last Sunday. This is not extraordinary; we are glad so many +are like John and Mary. Twice the gates have opened this winter for +us, and now part of our church gather above and part here. Five more +are to confess their faith at the next communion. Pray for these +little ones.</p> +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_162" id="Page_162">[Pg 162]</a></span></p> +<hr class="section" /> + +<h2>The Chinese.</h2> + +<h3>THE LOS ANGELES MISSION.</h3> + +<div class="center">BY. REV. WM. C. POND, D.D.</div> + + +<p>An interesting letter from Mrs. Rice, wife of Rev. O. V. Rice, who has +charge of our mission at this prosperous and ambitious metropolis of +Southern California, prompts me to give my space this month to a +review of our work there. It had already begun when, twenty-two years +ago, I became superintendent. I tried to visit it in the spring of +1874, but a severe storm on our usually placid Pacific delayed our +steamer so long that I could spend only a few hours there. This was +sufficient, however, to show me that we had a good teacher and some +very promising pupils, but an indifference to contend with on the part +of American Christians which was both surprising and painful.</p> + +<p>A few months after this I heard that Rev. Ira M. Condit, a missionary +recently returned from China, able to talk the Chinese language +fluently, and a very estimable brother, had gone to Los Angeles to +establish a Presbyterian mission. I did not hear of it by letter from +him nor from any one connected with the Presbyterian work in this +State. Denominational comity just then had not reached in the minds of +our Presbyterian brethren sufficient dignity to call even for a bow in +recognition. But I waived this matter, and believing that, with his +manifest advantages, he could do better work than we, and that there +was not room enough in the field, as it then was, for two missions, I +turned over to him our whole school—pupils, teacher, and whatever +conveniences or good-will we had gathered—and retired from the +locality. It was about two months only when I heard of six or eight +conversions in the Presbyterian Chinese mission of Los Angeles, but +they were the very ones of whom our teacher had spoken hopefully to me +on my visit to the city.</p> + +<p>An interval of several years occurred. The great boom came, and Los +Angeles sprang to the front among the inland cities of the State and +boasted that before long San Francisco would be one of its suburbs. +The Chinese population increased to about 6,000. Among these were many +of our own brethren and several who were members of my own church. +They pleaded for a Congregational mission, and showed that because the +two Presbyterian missions were at one end of the Chinese quarter, and +there was nothing of the sort at the other end, nearly a mile distant, +there was a large field for us where we would come into no +competition, and where all that we might do would be a distinct +addition to the work done for Christ among their countrymen. We +yielded to their persuasions and found their prediction amply +verified. Our school became at once the largest and our work the most +active and fruitful in the<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_163" id="Page_163">[Pg 163]</a></span> city. In the four months ending with +August 31, 1888, 133 pupils were enrolled, and the average membership +month by month was 69. Street-preaching, hand-to-hand evangelistic +work, and the skillful, faithful labor of our teacher, Mrs. Sheldon, +and our enthusiastic helper, Loo Quong, were used of God for the +conversion of many souls.</p> + +<p>But as in other specially delightful places for homes, persons +multiplied who desired to enter into this missionary work. Instead of +three, there came to be six or eight missions there. Competition +ensued. Our school, though comparing well with any, was reduced in +size and influence, and as we began to be straitened for funds and +there were many points where no one was caring for Chinese souls, our +aid was withdrawn and I supposed the work would cease. Not so. Our +Chinese brethren clung to each other and to their own mission work. +They rented quarters neither spacious nor comfortable, but cheap, and +contrived, with the aid of one true-hearted Christian woman, to keep +up their school, maintain their Association, add four members to it as +converts to the Christian life, and present seven of their number to +the First Congregational Church for baptism. We felt that a mission +with such "grit and grace" deserved to live. <i>Long may it live!</i></p> + +<p>Three persons converted at this mission have been brought into our +work as missionary helpers. Many have testified for Christ in their +own land.</p> + +<p>At present it is in excellent working order and our Christian Chinese +are enthusiastic, generous, and at peace among themselves. Let me copy +a few sentences from a letter from one of them who was temporarily at +work at Pasadena. "I am very sorry for I left our school. Pray God for +me that I may be back to it again. You will be kind and teach our +people; that is such good work for you. God will want thus such person +[<i>i.e.</i>, God wants persons who do as you do.—W. C. P.] You very much +interest our people. May God reward it to you! Before I went to the +mission school I never thought to be a Christian; now I did do it. I +am very thankful God has direct me out from the superstition to find +pathway about the truth, God and Heavenly Father. Now I am feel such +good comfort in my mind, but I do not satisfy [I am not satisfied] to +know the salvation alone, but needed you pray for my countrymen that +they all find life in Jesus Christ."</p> + +<p>And now for an extract, briefer than I desired to make, from Mrs. +Rice's letter: "Last night we gave a farewell reception to our +brother, Yon Mon, who is about to leave for China. The brethren seized +this opportunity to present to a lady from Norristown, Pa., who has +kindly helped our work, a very nice letter of thanks with their names +signed to it. A gentleman who came to the city with her, and who is +about to open a fine store here, attended her to the mission house, +out of<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_164" id="Page_164">[Pg 164]</a></span> courtesy but very reluctantly, for he was bitterly opposed to +Chinese and to any and all efforts made for them. The brethren took +him for a friend and when introduced shook hands. He said it 'was as +much as his life was worth' to extend his hand in response to theirs. +But the same sense of courtesy constrained him to come with his friend +a second evening, and at its close he asked if he might be permitted +to say a word 'just to the boys.' Whereupon he expressed his pleasure +at all he had seen since coming into the school, and advised the boys +to keep right on doing right. They would meet bitter enemies among the +Americans, but not to mind them but go right forward. Then he +announced that if by February 5 we would have thirty regular pupils, +he would make the school 'a handsome present.' I wish some of the +other opponents of our work could in like manner be <i>compelled</i> to see +our schools. Seeing would be believing, would it not?"</p> + +<p>The latest contribution of our Los Angeles Mission to our general work +is Jue See, who has come to take Yip Bow's place (Yip Bow also having +come from the same mission) as helper in Oakland and at the West +School in this city, while Yip Bow goes to Sacramento. I am greatly +pleased with him. He will, when trained for the work (and we train for +work mainly <i>by working</i>), make one of the best of our Chinese +helpers.</p> + +<p>I add just one word of good news. Our teachers are <i>all</i> paid in full +for last year's work. Their faith has not been put to shame. Two of +our Chinese helpers still lack something, and two other creditors will +probably have to make large donations in order to square their +accounts, but I <i>know</i> that <i>one</i> of them will not complain, and the +other will be doing only what she promised, and while I fear it may be +a hardship, it is no greater hardship than almost every landlord or +landlady, in these days of pressure, has been forced to undergo. So I +feel like singing the Doxology!</p> + +<hr class="section" /> + +<h3>WOMAN'S STATE ORGANIZATIONS</h3> + + +<ul> +<li class="state">MAINE.</li> + +<li class="org">Womans's Aid to A. M.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> |
