Chapter IX

The following gives some idea of what the department in theology is doing:

"Having a desire to do something for Christ and humanity, I
began the study of theology and other studies at Straight, that
I might be thoroughly equipped, 'a workman that needeth not to
be ashamed.' I was compelled to give up for two years, and it
seemed to me that there was no use of my trying further, when
just then through the dark cloud the sun shone again, and I
hope now, if life lasts, to keep on till I finish the course.
All that I am, or ever expect to be, is due to Straight
University. May God bless her and the many friends who have
made it possible for us to attend."

ALL HEALING, NORTH CAROLINA.

During the summer about forty of our pupils taught in the public schools; some had eighty or ninety scholars. In this way our school really influences many whom we cannot reach. It is so good to see the interest our young teachers take in their work and how, when they find a bright boy or girl, they always try the first thing to induce that one to come to school. Then, too, we see a growing desire among the scholars to come into school early in the fall, and we rejoice in a family of fifty-seven six weeks earlier than we had the same last year.

The richest blessing of the year has begun to fall upon us, the presence of the Holy Spirit leading souls to Christ. During this month five have felt that God had forgiven their sins. Is not that enough to compensate us for anything we may give up to engage in the work?

PLEASANT HILL, TENNESSEE.

A boy we could not receive, although we would have been glad to have done so, said he had worked all summer for his share of a crop which was about 100 bushels of corn. He would have about twenty bushels of the corn left after he had bought himself a few clothes, which he must have if he came to school, and he thought he ought to help his mother a little. It was his only chance to get what he so much desired. He realized that twenty bushels of corn, worth only about $5.00, was very little for him to do for himself. He would try to prove himself worthy of any help we could give him.

Still another boy writes: "It is not much I can do for myself, for I have not been able to find anything to do to get any money, although I have tried hard. But a friend has just given me a chance to assist him in his school for a couple of months. I don't know how much he will pay me, but you shall have _every cent_ I _do_ get. I do want to come into school, I need the education so much; I want to make a true man."

The Indians.

There has been an interesting revival at Ponca Church, Nebraska, under the direction of Rev. James Garvie, our Indian pastor.

The friends who attended the annual meeting of the Association at Lowell will remember Mr. Garvie very pleasantly, as he was one of the speakers on that occasion. He is as successful in the great work which comes to him, as the pastor of one of our churches on the prairie, as he was in telling the story of the work among his people to Eastern congregations.

Even the building of a barn at the prairie mission may be turned to the spiritual advantage of the Indian people, as is proved by the experience of Miss Mary P. Lord at Flying By's Village, N. D. The following extract, from a recent letter of hers, tells the story most interestingly. Frank and Daisy are her horses, who are really four-footed missionaries. Miss Lord writes: "On Sunday the ponies took me twelve miles to conduct service at Oak Creek Sub-Agency, where my people were gathered for the Monday morning issue of rations. Service over at noon, a drink of water and a feed of grain, and then two hours and a half later we were twenty miles away to attend afternoon service at Little-Eagle's village, where I played the organ for the English singing of the boarding-school children there. Yesterday they brought me to Fort Yates, thirty miles."

HUT AND HEAVEN.

BY REV. C. L. HALL, FT. BERTHOLD, N. D.

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.

The Chinese.

THE LOS ANGELES MISSION.

BY. REV. WM. C. POND, D.D.

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.

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.

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 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.

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. _Long may it live!_

Three persons converted at this mission have been brought into our work as missionary helpers. Many have testified for Christ in their own land.

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.e._, 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."

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 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 _compelled_ to see our schools. Seeing would be believing, would it not?"

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 _by working_), make one of the best of our Chinese helpers.

I add just one word of good news. Our teachers are _all_ 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 _know_ that _one_ 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!
