One of them who will attend this con vcr.t.cn le!ls the following: -They though; they'd Let me but ihey ditlnt. Vou see, it wat thit way. When I went into a neglected coun try community to organize a Sunday hool I found, v. I always do, tome people anxious for a school, but oth ers determined not to have one. In this case the opposition was more than usually pronounced and before I wat through threats to kill me were pretty freely made. . 'I organized the school, however, without any untoward incident, but when I returned some time later for special meetings not only were Ihreats repeated but finally one after noon, investigation atterward satis fied us, two men entered the school house, for we were using the public school building, after school, and put dynamite in the stove, reasoning that when I shook down the fire that night they would kill me, but providentially I did not shake the stove when I reached the building, nor did we shake it during the evening while we had a crowded house,' but the next morning when the teacher shook down the fire the dynamite exploded, wrecking the stove and furniture and blowing out every window. The tcacaer was bad ly burned and ievcral children hurt, one very seriously. Naturally the peo ple were frightened, but when the building was repaired we went back and have a fine school there today." This man and others will be heard in the various pulpits on Sunday and in the several sessions of the confer ence and particularly in the evening sessions. ' iirst; Mary E. Fox; second.
