No one so; much as I realized that the strength of tho campaign must be found in Republican principles; and BUT hope was that nothing j 4m my life or word of mine might weaken the appeal of our American politics to the Amencan heart. That appeal did not fail. A Republican President and Vice Presi dent and a Repmblican Congress were chos en. The record has been made and we are now to submit it the judgment of a patri otic people. Of my on relation to tbe great transactions in legislation .and ad ministration, which nraat be the basis of ihis judgment, it does not become me to «peak.

Proceedings of the i6th Annual Meeting of the Prmbyterikl Society at Butler, Jane 14 and 15, 1892. The sixteenth annual meeting of the Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Societies of the Bnt ler Presbytery was h. ld in the Presbyterian Church on Tues day and Wednesday, the 14th and 15th, and was extremely interesting and pro ductive of great good in arousing new ideas and promoting stronger resolves among the grand women who compose these societies. The Auxiliary Sociefr' were well repre sented by able delegates and it was an in spiring sight—this handsome church with its fine floral decorations, and its dozens of the leading ladies of this and other coun ties. The weather was perfect, though warm, tho speakers at their best, and all united in pronouncing it the most success ful meeting ever held by the Societies. The delegates arrived on Tuesday morn ing and were tendered a reception at the Presbyterian Church at which was followed by a sumptuous dinner served in the Lecture Room by the "Pansy" and "Willing Workers" Bands, which are composed of young ladies of Butler. An hour followed which was given up to having a social time, and was well spent by the delegates in becoming acquainted. The regular program was taken up at 130 p. M. After devotional exercises, Mrs. Rev. McConkey. of Grove City, the Presi dent. addressed the delegates in an im pressive manner. From her address we take the following: /*vrr Sister* of Butler Presbytery Another year of progress; another year or praise; another year of proving Hi* pres ence all the .lay; anotbtr year of service of witness for His love; another year of training for holier work above. This is undoubtedly the grateful song of every Christian womans' heart this after noon, and as we stand at the close ot another year, it is fitting that we P» us ®' not only for a brief review of some of the events of the year, but that we may also devoutly acknowledge the divine act ot nim whoße hand has led us onward, y e by year, and whose name we have sought to Klorifv in our efforts to maintain and extend the work committed to our. care. A glance backward over the twelve months reveals many causes for thanksgiving and yet there are dark sombre shadows cast here and there across the path. Faithful members of our auxiliary having heard the summons to come up higher have gone to a holier service, and faithful unto death have received the crown of life that awaited them. But being dead they yet speak to as and 0, may their memory ever be an in spiration to us whose influences si l all ex tend as the pebble cast into the water making a circle whose ever widening arms touch at last heaven's own shores. But while some have fallen from the rank* ot our army, we praise God to-day that our Pre*. Soc. is still complete, its circle still unbroken, and yet we are not unmindful of the sad, sad fact that the stern messen ger of death has entered the happy homes of two of our dear aster officials and taken from them their very life and light. The shadow has indeed fallen darkly upon the hearts of dear Mrs. Wright and Mrs Miiilin and together we would commend them to the loving care of Him who makes no mistakes and who has said that all things work together for good to those who low him. But 0, there is a vacant place not only around the uear fireside and festal board but in our own Pres. Soc we feel a personal loss. No truer, stauncher friends had our society than the two who have departed. What mission God may have for them above we may not know, bnt of this we are assured their keen brain and their loving hearts are active some where. In heaven as on earth they are about their Father's business, doing His will tree from the limitations of the flesh, from care and sorrow and weariness. It is also my sad dnty to record the death of Mrs Rev. Decker, who was for many years a faithful officer in this society, but for some time past has been living in another state. To us who loved her so, her drath seems untimely, but in God's eye her earthly life stands rounded out complete or it would not have been terminated. A letter from her devoted husband says, "O, my hrart *«- <•« my 110 111 L' i© SO dark;" and 0. dear sisters, this is true, lor death does make a change as many ot us who are here can testify. To-day wc chosen harbingers of "The Glad Tidings of Great Joy which shall be to all people." _ In the name of the Ladies ot the Mis sionary" Society of thin Chnrcb, I welcome yon, hoping that your sojonrn among ns may lie mutually helpful and may stimu late ns all to greater \ iligence and zeal in '•.Serving." Mrs. Dixon responded feelingly, a* did others who followed. Alter the seating of delegates the report of Mrs. Agnes MoCol longh, of Grove City, the corresponding Secretary,was heard.which was as follows: SIXTRKSTH ANNCAL BKPORT. We now present tor your consideration the sixteenth annual report of the Butler Pres. Miss. Society. May we ask for yonr attention as wo read. It was my purpose at first to give an itemized account of the work done by the Auxiliaries and Bands, making special mention of each, but to do so would bo only to state in advance, what will be given you to morrow by the dele gates. There'are a few things, however that must be spoken of. Allegheny, the first name on our roll has met with a serious loss in the death of their President Mrs. A. B. Miller, but they have held on contributing liberallv. and holding seven meetings. Amity is carrying ont the principle implied in iU name, we holding meetings at the homes of the member*. They meet at Uo'clock, staying to 'J inner and report vory pleasant times. Buffalo reports that they are without a pastor, there were somethings that hinder them, and that tbev are discouraged. From Rutler. Concord. Centre and tentrenlle we have received good tidings. Cliuton yille Auxiliaries seems to have fallen back sadly, but their Young Ladies Circle have taken up the work nobly, cannot the mothers in this case learn a lesson from the daughters? Grove City holds on her way with growing love for the work. 1 his Society has held a meeting every month without a failure in sixteen years. Harris ville failed to report to the Secretary last year and this year also, but we see that they are credited with a contribution to Foreign Missions, and we are happy to re tain their name on our roll. Mt. Ncl»o has been reduced by removals, as a congrega tion to a membership of 45. Ofcourse this tells unfavorably on the Miss. Soc. so long one of our prayerful sympathy. The Aux iliaries have all been heard from, with tbe exception mentioned. Does not this state ment stir the heart to gladness sister. And then though there was so much Holi ness, and so much unpleasent weather the meetings have been surprisingly well maintained. A number of the Auxiliaries, express a hope that they are growing in speak of having been blest them selves, as they have engaged in this bless ed work for the Master. Stating that they enter upon the new year with quickened zeal. Very cheering have been the little letters sent with the reports. Through these wo have had glimpse into the interior of a memlter or the meetings. Now we must speak of the work anionp our young people. The Young Ladies Circle.Clinton ville; the McCauley Hand. Centroville; the Ephraim Band, Middlesex; the Morning Star, Mnddy Creek; and the Little (J rains of Sand. Grove City; have sent excellent reports, as have also, the Busy Bees, of Sunbury, the Plain Grove 1. L. Circle, and the New Hope S. S. Hand. The I'ortersville Band ha* di>bauded, haying lost two presidents within a short time. We believe, though no word to that effect has been sent to ns, that one or two other* not reporting have been merged into the Christian Endeavor Society. Now. of this we have no word of complaint. It is in almost all cases the very best thing a weak or failing band can do, and it is the vei\ best way of bringing the young men anil boys in our churches into the work. In looking oyer the annual report of the »o man's Board we find 115 Y.P.C.L. S. on our roll, which gives evidence that they send their contributions for Mission pui* poses, through that agency. Now, whilst we would not dictate to our noble Endeavor Societies, we would kindly suggest that where a "band" previously belonging to us, has been absorbed it would be bnt just that the funds giving for Mission work by that "Endeavor" should be sent to our Presbyterial Treasurers. Of course they will receive credit in their own name. lu some respects our Pres. Society is doing better than iu any previous year of its history. Wo see the monthly meetings well sustained, wo see an increase in the Magazines Wo take 90 copies, U. M- M., 02 C. W., 140 W. W. W. We have sent boxes and barrels to the value of $<93.1 Our membership is now 964. No. of Societies 31. Bands 20. Wo support in frruljiii work, Stis* H. A. India; Mrs. Belle E. Dodd. Lspoon, Laos. Wo know also of a native Chinaman sup ported by four ladies in the Grove t ity Auxiliary. In home work wo have Miss Stephenson in the the Seminary at Afho ville, and also Miss Montgomery in the same school, who is supported by tho But ler Auxiliary, No part of tho Masters work touches our hearts more than this of Miss S. and her colloagues among the Mountain Whites, of the south. Wo pledge her our undimminished interest and our hearty support. Now, are we willing to advance? Let overy heart respond with an earnest cry, for greater faith, greater love and renewed consecration. Respectfully Submitted, AOSBS MCCOLLOUUII, Pres. Sec. A vocal dnet by Mi** Alice Wick and her sister Mr?. D. E. Dale was then render ed in the style so familiar to all. It was very much enjoyed. "Child-life in India" was the title of a paper by Mrs. W. A. Haird. It was re plete with interesting and novel informa tion and suggestions. One ol the most interesting features of the meeting then followed in opening of the Question Basket. Vital questions were discussed with much ability and readiness by the following members: "What is the best way to conduct a Missionary meetingT" Was answered_by Miss Ella Cunningham, of Groye City, she said, "The best way is to begin with one's whole heart in the work, always ad dress the piesident before you speak, till up the front seats,have a good library,etc. "Can an intelligent Christian woman separate Home and Foreign Missions f Answered by Miss Maud Glenn and other. "How shall we keep the Bands interest ed?" Answered by Miss Flora McDowell and others. "How can we reach the uninterested 1 Answered by Mrs. J. M. Thompson.

"What is the best way to increase our membership ? Mrs. Dr. l'earson. "is the work done for one's own local cliurcli and for its ignorant and poor, Mis sionary work." Mrs. Brandon. Miss Ella Cunningham followed with an interesting essay. Mrs. E. M. Colbert then read several beautiful letters from Mrs. Dodd, a Mis sinary, which we would publish if spaoo could permit. On Tuesday evening, a popular meeting was held, which v/as addressed by Mrs. Tracy and Miss McKay. On Wednesday iuorning,after devotional exercises conducted by Mrs. Wright, re ports were listened to. We append the Treasurers Report. TREASURER'S RKPORT.

Resolved, That as members of, and del egates to this Preshyterial Society, we do each resolve to be more faithtul to our Master's cause, not slighting -our high privilege as works together with God, in bringing about the glorious time wlieu the "kingdom of this world shall have become the kingdom ofanr fjord." Kesolved, That as the best Gourse for women of the church to pursue in attaining this earnestly desired end seems to be through the organizations aiding missionary work, therefore wo should use every available means to promote the growth and efficiency of our Auxiliary Societies and Bands. Kesolved, That wo plan more carefully for the things that will assist in giving life and interest to our meetings, not ne glecting the important iteui of literature, such as magazines and the leaflets. Kesolved, That we take a higher view ol (the efficacy aud powor of prayer, remembering the promises made to those who pray in faith "praying always with all prayer" for the pouring out ol the Holy Spirit upon all flesh for missionaries and for every nation and people, never forget ting our own eutire dependence upon God, and humbly asking for a blessing upon Kesolved, That wc hereby extend to the C. E. S. our sisterly greetings, expressing our interests in, and gratification with, their work, giving thanks that suchorgaui zations nave been raised up and stating that we will gladly receive delegates should they think best to be represented in the annual meeting* of the Pres. Society. Kesolved, That we hereby do enter our solemn protest against the opening of the World's Fair to visitors on the Sabbath and also against tho sale of intoxicating liquors upon the grounds. Resolved. That to those three dear sisters who have been called to mourn and whose homes are darkened because of loved ones who have gone out to return no more, wo express our sincere sympathy and tender regard, Wc commend them to the love of the Lord Jesus, who was Him self a man of sorrow and acquainted with grief. Resolved, That we return our sincere thanks to Mrs. Tracy and Miss McKay who so ably addressed us; to the people of But ler for their hospitality so kindly displayed; to the choir, the ladies who uaug for us, snd to all who may have assisted us in any wav. M us. M< CoLLOCtlll, MHH. CHKSRBKO, Committee. now TO RKACH TJIK CSINTKREBTKU. To mo this in the one iuiimrtaut question in Missionary Work. Could we reach the ull interested then all would become inter ested, and who can tell what great and grand good would come of this ? First. To interest others our own hearts must be more lullv charged with a living purpose and a zeal born of God. We can not expect to import to others any greater measure of enthusiasm than we really possess. Wo must rely more on God for all our plans. I sometimes think the whole difficulty of impressing and interest iug others lies within ourselves. We plan our meeting, send out our Missionary literature and lift up our voices in earnest appeal for money and laborers, while per haps (unconsciously) we are placing our reliance upon visible means, ignoring tho influence of the Holy Spirit. To have our meetings interesting and have others interested in them, it is neces sary we have organized method of work, and follow approved plans. Its is import ant tbut in every church there bo a Wo man's Missionary Society. We should encourage prayerful study concerning tho great needs of our country, and bring to the attention ofChriatain Women,the help fill things written and spoken which aro calculated to arouse interest. We must press forward with au earnestness that knows no weariness. 1 thiuk one< go little, and because of this feeling do nothing. Il any such are hern today I would say you can do everything; you can serve—you can givo—you can pray. Tho best example of self sacrificing liber ality recorded in the Bible is of woman; tho best example of loving service is of woman, the beat example of conquering prayer is of women The gift, a widow's mite; the service, the anointing of Jerfus with a box of ointment; the prayer, a mother's prayer lor her daughter. 'Twa* no great gilt, no great service, no great prayer, but it was given in love and faith, and self sacrifice. la the .-ight of God it was of great price. Jesus never let fall such words of royal commendation as con cerning these three women. To the poor widow he said. "She has cast in more than them all:" to Mary with her alabaster box of ointment, "She has done what she could:" and to the praying Caananitish wo man. "O woman great is thy faith, be it unto thee even as thou wilt." Surely such gifts, such service and such prayer is possible to every one of us. Miss. CLARA THOMPSO*. Thk late reports from that part of Min nesota devastated by a cyclone last week, indicate greater destruction and loss of life than the first Fifty people were killed at one point a whole village was swept awai - , and the country was flooded. Parts of Jaek.>on. Martin. Faribault, Freeborn, and Blue Earth counties were devastated. THS fact that lion. James G. Blaine was attending the funeral of a favorite son in Chicago on the very day the Democratic National Convention assembled in that great city, is one that illustrates the un certainties ami strange events that happen in this life. But two weeks before, this son was at Minneapolis assisting in the eiroit to have his father made the Re publican nominee for President.

Tht>«Wath of Miss Jennie Konkle, of Calleiuburg. Pa., occnred at the house of Mrs. Dougan. on Locust street, Friday night the 18th inst. The remains were taken to her home in Callensburg Saturday evening, and laid in their last resting El ace Monday morning. Funeral services eing held in tho Presbyterian church by Revs. Frampton and Shanor. The young lady was very popular and a large number of friends and acquaintances attended the funeral, aud her death is mourned by all who knew her. She had been a noble worker in the M. 10. church of that place, while she was yet able to be about. The latter chnrch was draped in mourning, and the Rev. Frampton, of that church, spoke very pathetically of her death, and the good deeds she had done, in his sermon last Sunday. She was also a member of the Tonipe'rance workers in which she took an active part. A sad incident connected with her death, was that none of her folks were present during her last hours. They had been here to see her, but the physician in charge informed them that there was no danger and they conld safely return, and with this assurauce they returned; her mother being the last to leave Friday morning. Her folks were nearly prostrated when they heard the sad news. The deceased was 21 years of age. and had Keen ailing for the past six months. Her case was a puzzle to the physicians, and she came here in February anil consulted one of our prominent physicians who pronounced her case to be one ol "floating kidney" and said it was curable and that she was in no danger whatever. Ho prescribed for her and she returned home, after a week's stay, being somewhat relieved. She grew better for a while but soon changed for the worse. She came here again about three weeks ago, and was under the doctor's care up to the time of h«r death. A post mortem examination was held by Drs. Bell, Black, Hoover, Xeyman, Pillow and Forrester, Saturday afternoon, when it was revealed that death had resulted from perforation of tho bowel—an egg shell being found therein. Tho kidneys wero in perfect order. A CARD OF THANKS.
