ramp last ye«r. A apleniild offering was
taken up towards paying their trarelln,;
eipen«<!« from bore to Ceutral Africa.
Special prayers were made la their be-

The Sunday morning service was turned
orer to Rev W. A. Ross and Key. Mr
Elliott, missionaries from Mexico, Mr. Ross
having spent several years In Monte-
morales and Mr. Elliott In Sau Luis
l'otosl.
MISSIONS IN MEXICO.
Mr. Ross gave a short account of the
history of Presbyterian missions in Mex
iro. Our first missionary was Dr. Gray
bill, who went out lu 1S73. Tbe Presby-
terian Church now has flee mission sta-
tions In Mexico—Matamoros, Linares, Vic-
toria, Montemyrales and Tuna. However,
tbere are two foreign mlssiou stations In
our own country- San iVnlto and Browns
Ullc, which are Included In the Synod .of
Northern Mexico.
Mr. Ross spoke of the three revolutions
that Mexico lias had, saying that each
one of them resulted in progress. Tbe
revolution that is now on means more
than any former revolution, and though
at tbe present time Mexico Is In a very
serious condition, the outcome of this, no
ooubt, will mean light, progress ami clvi
llintlon. Mexico will <ee a far brighter
day tha i ever before. The schools and
churches, of course, were forced to close
dewn. but tbere will sooner or later bo
a wide open door for ITcsbytcrlans to
enter Mexico.
Mr. Elliott's talk was very direct and
Interesting. He spoke of the conference
In progress in Washington just now, but
hesitated to say what tbe outcome would
be. Tbe problem that exists In Mexico
is a social problem, and no one can tell
how long the struggle will continue, but
the results will be far-reaching.
The music was especially fine at tbe
morning service. The Presbytetlsn Church
"holr. under the leadership of Mrs. A. C.
fchrelner, gave two special numbers, Mrs.
I-oyln sang very sweetly "I'm a Pilgrim."
