FOREIGN MISSIONS.
Especially That Connected
With The M. B. Church.
How The Evangelizing "Work in Ac
complished.
Sunday morning Mrs. M. J.
Shelley , ( lie confcrcnco nccrclnry , do *
live red n discourse in the South Oma-
1m M. E. cliurcli. Tlioro was a largo
nnd fashioimblo nttondanco. In the
course of hnr exhaustive address Mrs.
Shelley said the missionary work they
were undertaking was far inoro
momentous thmi v/an popularly
imagined. It meant carrying the glad
tidings to millions of unconverted
human beings. There were at pres
ent thousands , even millions dying
without n knowledge of the Lamb of
God who came into the world to re
deem souls. Thn Women's Foreign
Missionary society has n grand work
to accomplish. This society was in
stituted to carry out certain mission
ary work which could not bo effectual
ly done by men. Those acquainted
with the laws of caste will know that
no man is over * allowed to enter the
x.cnatias except the husband. No wo
man is allowed to sco a man except her
husband , The women even of the
highest caste are kept in the
greatest ignorance , and exclusion and
they therefore can bo reached only
by women. It is admitted by all
travelers nnd others , that it is the
wives of India that nro the chief pro
pagators nnd supporters of idolatry.
Missionary men have said , "you nro
right : wo must educate our girls. Wo
hnvo lost our influence among the
nations of the earth , because our sons
have no mothers. " Human society
depends upon women for its moral
elevation. If you want to raise a
nation of infidels , you cannot do bet
tor than place them under infidel
teachers. This is exactly the plan
the Women's Foreign Missionary
Society have pursued nil over the
world , to christianize the mothers of
these Indian homos. When this is
done the future of that people- fixed ;
they will bo made Christian people.
The women hnvo felt that they have
boon called by God to undertake this
work , nnd they hnvo nobly responded
to the call.
This work requires workers at homo
and workers abroad. Some hnvo
thought that nil that is required to
carry out missionary work was to bo
willing to leave homo and friends and
go to distant lands. But there is a
good deal of missionary work to bo
done nt homo. The foreign mis
sionary work requires its workers to bo
cultivated and well trained ; nnd hence
the society has been sending out
young girls who have spent a number
of years qualifying tliomsolvcs for
such positions. They hnvo gene out
relinquishing everything , their homos ,
their friends , the society of Christian
allocations to consort with those de
graded and uncivilized people. Out
of fifty-two girls , not one have over
proved a failure , not ono has been
unwisely chosen. All have proved
efficient nnd strong , and when the
ranks have boon thinned the vacan
cies have soon been filled up. This
workjneods home workers , and they nro
just as sacred in the Master's sight na
those who go abroad. The sacrifice
nnd the self-denial that these
workers endure cannot bo esti
mated. Homo workers project
the plan that workers abroad
carry out. Homo workers provide
the moans for carrying out the work
abroad. Both missions nro ono in
spirit nnd ono in labor , that is to evnn-
goli/.e the whole world. Some of the
results of this work have boon mar
velous. Since the institution of this
society in 180 ! ) it has done seine glo
rious work. It has two thousand live
hundred and seventy-eight auxiliary
societies , sixty-five thousand six hun
dred and sixty-two members in the M.
E. church , 3G2l ! lifo members. It
sustains eleven American missionaries
in China , nine in India , four in South
America , seven in Japan , five in Mexico
ice and two in Africa. It supports
over two hundred Jtiblo
women nnd native teachers ;
six hospital * and dispensaries. It has
likewise fifteen boarding schools with
over seven hundred pupils , about a
hundred and twenty-five day schools
with neatly three thausand pupil * ,
three orphanages with about four hun
dred orphans ; two homes for friendless -
loss women. More than n thousand
Hoiianas are regularly visited. To
'ok
sustain nnd carry on nil this work :
8107,932.45 have boon appropriated.
Between May , 1880 , and May , 1881 ,
524,1118 have boon appropriated. :
3omo of the girls have studied modi-
cina and these medical girls are doing >
the grandest work , the heathen women -
men not being allowed to sco oa
male physician. The girls have
great oppwrtunities of making their :
way into the homos by means of their )
medical schools Borne of the native
girls have passed medical examina
tions nnd these are doing n grand
work. The funds are all collected
in small Bums. Part of the funds are
derived from the Halo of paper rags. :
An interesting fact in regard to this
society is that none of the women con
nected with this work got ono cent mof
pay ; there is not single salaried
oflicor except the girls who work
abroad.
Mra. Shelley concluded that it was
a grand work and there was yet a
- great deal to bo accomplished. They
must pray to God to increase their
zeal and strength to carry it on.
Jumped the Track ,
At ton o'clock yesterday the iC.

VaP.
bash road half a inilo from the U , P.
depot at Council. BlutTs , jumped tin

Some of the ties are broken and turn

bash trnck. None of the passengers
or officials were injured.
Small Firo-
There was an alarm of fire about
noon yesterday thatsontlhofirodepart-
mont down Farnham street at n lively
pace. The cause of the alarm was
the breaking out of a fire in a small
frame building near the U. P. bridge.
It originated through some
children playing with matches.
The fire VM pretty well under way
when the engines arrived. The car
riage of No. 2 secured an attachment
with the U. P. tank , and gotn stream
of water t playing. The building
was damaged about § 1,000 worth. All
household goods were saved. The
house was occupied by n man named
Lawrence Barrett.
QUARTERLY REPORT
Of Mrs. H. B. Puller , the City
Missionary.
The last three months have been
broken in upon by sickness , and ex
cessive heat , yet I have visited or
worked 411 hours.
In my last report I spoke about a
"Homo for the Friendless , " and the
necessity for this has been fully . de
monstrated since then. I think it
was the very evening thnt the report
was read , that a woman came to mo
bogging to stay over night , with tears
she pleaded , "You won't turn mo
into the streets will you ? " without
friends , and without money , what was
she to do ? If our doors are closed
against such ns she , they seek refuge
where nlono they can find it , in houses
of sin. Wo deem that this unfits
them thereafter for decent , Christian
homes ; shall wo .stand acquitted nt the
judgment ?
Shortly after a baby watt loft on my
hands for a week , for whom I was
trying to find a homo by adoption.
Then n girl was brought to mo who
wanted a place to work for her board ,
until she could go to her mother in
the south. I fear she was irnud ,
however , as the girl disappeared while
I was trying to find a situation for
her.
her.Next
Next came n woman from the west ,
with four little children , desiring to
go to St. Joe to her'husband who was-
sick. As ho is n railroad omployo,8ho
had no doubt she could got to- her des
tination , but her trunk was liehlntthe
hotel , as she had not the means-to-pay
her night's lodging , neither had she
dinner for herself or children. The
funds for this wore turnishcd through
the kindness of friends.
A woman also wanted to find o > place-
for her two Httlo girls , and/ / aged
mother , saying it was impossible for
her longer to support them.
And lastly the easeof n young girl
of considerable notoriety who was at
the time in the city prison ,
for drunkenness , was brought to my
notice. She expressed an earnest de
sire to reform and I thank God. there
wore tound men tiuo and bravo enough ,
to como to her aid. ono of them saying ,
"Somo man wrought h jr ruin , shall
not another help in the rescue ? " But , ,
meantime , she had to bo kept in the .
city prison , ( nnd this of her own free
will ) to save her from the demons who
were prowling around her , knowing ,
that only by holdihg to her lips tlso '
poisoned cup , which she might not
have strength to resist , could she bo
brought within their power. A Chris *
tian homo was opened to her , and
whether she stall bo saved or not , t buy
who have tried to do fchis , may bo
blessed by the consciousaoss that tlioy
have done \vlwt they could.
Instances like this have occuretl before -
fore , and these cases wharc some tem
porary home is needed , are constantly
on the increase. "Who * is to ba done
with thorn J The question presses it
self upon every Christian and every
friend of humanity. Who is to act in
thisIf / nothing is done who is to bo
responsible ? On my sick list , is a lit *
tlo boy eight years old , who has been
in bed for two years. His homo is
miserably poor , nnd ho is such a pa
tient , winsome little follow , I hat I
think if the children who enjoy the
luxury of toys , could see him , they
would bo glad to divide with him.
Ono of our mission schools Eddie
Miller died n week or two since ; and
another a colored boy lies appear-
ently at the point of death. Unlike
many of his class , ho has been quiet
and attentive in school , and ho ex
presses his willingness to go and meet
the Saviour ; and was tolling mo ono
night when I watched with him , about
the friends who were waiting for his
coming on "tho other side. " If
througn the influence of the school ' 1 ,
this ono soul is saved , they who have
labored in it , through all these weary ,
discouraging years , need not feel that
it has been in vain.
Sprinkling Matters.
The indications now nro that some
street sprinkling will bo done and
that very shortly. Mr. Thomas Swift
was mot yesterdayonasolicitingtourof
Douglas street. Ho said ho was
mooting with considerable success. Ho
does not intend to bother about en
tering into a contract with the conn-
cil , but will deal with the tenants di
rectly. Another gentleman who has
an interest in the sprinkling of St.
Louis , was engaged in soliciting along
Farnham street yesterdoy also.

TUB MLUJHTS IN
An alarm of l-ic was sent in yastor-

succeeded in yutting it out. The fire
originated from an ovorhea'.od ' steve
in the kitchea , where they had boon
ironing. This is the third time this
year that thsa house has cwght lire.
