attended. About 200 persons are
usually present, one-fourth of whom
are children in their teens. The behavior
and attention are excellent.
Rev. J. C. INIcFeeters, D.D., had for
his subject last Sabbath (August 2)
evening. "Jesus,, the Friend of the
Fallen." At the close, one man, about
forty years of age, related to a group
standing around him, how he had left
home that evening, bent on committing

of the Psalms, and came to the
meeting. While there, his heart arose
out of its despair, and became comforted.
He said he was going to turn
