It McCabe teaxher very interesting The farewell meet ing was held in Hall on Sun day evening and lasted fully three hours after which many of the dele gates took trains Tor the south Some of them however were a little scrupu lous about travelling on Sunday and for their convenience for there were a number- of them the railway au thorities made up a train which left the Union Station at one minute af ter midnight on Sunday Carlton St Methodist Church This church was favored on Sunday with two very able speakers who spoke to crowded houses and of the great mission movements The Rev Baldwin of New York and Secretary of Missions spoke in the morning and Bishop of India spoke in the evening Dr- Baldwin in opening his address said that he had positive proof that the time was not far distant when the kingdoms of the world would be converted to Christ and he contra dicted the statements of some who thought the world was becoming worse instead of better In speaking of the mission field in which be has worked Dr Baldwin said that in the Methodist Church had only two christian people in India a missionary Dr Butler and his wife When the uprising in Natal took place they had to flee lor their- lives after being frequently warned by the Governor that it was dangerous for them to stay there They just got out hours before the Sepoys came in and killed all the christian people Since then and up to the time that Dr Baldwin went to India there has been a wonderful change and in looking over the maps of the world to see what progress has been made in the civilization na tions if will be found that no country has exceeded India There were many difficulties the speaker went on to say in the early years of mission work in India In the first place it took him days to go to India from the United States while now a trip can be made in days from San There were as said before only two believers there in while now there are 72000 christians in that part of India north of the Ganges river It was thought by mission aries a wonderful achievement to have one Methodist Conference but now there are many conferences in flour ishing condition A prominent lead er of told Dr Baldwin that their religion was that of yes terday while ours was of tomorrow and expressed as in sympathy with the movement by saying that it was as the rising of the morning sun while theirs was as the setting of the sun When he arrived at Calcutta Dr Baldwin found that there were only native christian After remain ing there for years he returned to the United States and reported conversions and eight Methodist con ferences his return four years after be found that there were China Dr Baldwin said that this portkin of the was rapidly being opened up and toe natives were more interested North is being owned as well Owing to the disturbances there dur ing the last i two yearn people will naturally the work would be somewhat but Dr Baldwin disagreed with that idea and claimed that it would prove to be best year the history of foreign Uprising in During the uprising Boxers at contrary to first reports no Methodist missionaries were killed but a great many native christians and missionaries were put to death To show how devoted some of these native christians were Dr Baldwin told of two cases where the Boxers took on some of their own blood and a leader of the native christians if would burn in Cense in tie church he would be sav ed This he refused to do and was out to death Another native a boy about years age had become Converted and was allowed the same privilege of be declined to accept this which he thought was not right and when they told him he would be put to death he said he would use the few moments he had to Jive in telling them of the great wrongs they were doing The Boxers cut off his lips to prevent from telling the truth and finally mutilat ed his body until be Since these and other examples of have been made known natives they are interested and very enthusiastic in the work Japan a long time all missionaries were kept out of Japan because of the belief of the Japanese that all for eign schemes were for their destruc tion and retardment of what they considered was the great advance ment and that their nation was to become one of the first of the world At last Dr Baldwin thinks they have settled down to a basis by which they have decided to adopt any eign ideas that will advance their country and keep any rules that they now have that will not retard their advancement As a result of this the inksionaries have been allowed into Japan and during last year Japs have been converted Methodist have only been established in about years and now the people are clamoring for the gospel The Methodists in Dr Baldwins opinion should have at least 25 missionaries at once while the Presbyterians claim a demand for 100 When one of the Methodist mis sionaries was starting to America he Was detained a special message from the King asking him to promise to make arrangements for the educa tion of young men in American colleges the King promising that he would supply the students In his closing remarks Dr Baldwin raid the missionaries in India were accustomed to great tiling as had been almost a continual One Sunday in he had seen persons bap tized This should move the hearts of the people and they should be en couraged in the work Of course all this work could not be carried on without money At one time there was a great demand for workers but The ppliindfM i The services next will be conducted at the
