The work before the board was the consideration of both the home and foreign mission 'inter ests oj the Church; the work of both was found to be in good condKlon and the work progressing In an encourag ing manner. The Church is readily meeting the financial need3 of the work. Rev. R. C. Holland; D., D., pastor of St. Mark's church, Is pres-. ident of the board, and Is untiring in his work of directing its interests. The board has home mission sta tions wt the following named points at ,ihe present time: Norfolk, New port News. Radford, Pulaski, - Blue field, Ga.; Goodwin, Miss.; Atlanta, Ga.; Spartanburg, S, C; Morrlstown, Greenville and BristoJ, Tenn. The board will hold another session this morning to consider further the foreign mission interests. The prin cipal Item of business In this connec tion transacted yesterday was the ap pointment of Mr. LI G. S. Miller as a missionary to Japan. Mr. Miller is & son of Rev. W G. M. Miller, D. Dm of Charleston, S. C, and is at presen a student at the seminary in Phila delphia, where he is studying for the ministry. He will be ordained as a minister at an earlv date, and will go to Japan to begin his work In October, In company with Rev. C. L. Brown, who returns to 'his work In that coun try at that time. Mr. Brown has been a missionary In Japan for eight years, returning "home last summer for j a year of rest.' Most of his time since contng home he has spent with the pastors of the Lutherfn church, help ing them to Increase the missionary spirit of their congregations. Mr. Brown 3s WwayS heard with pleasure In Charlotte, and his address last night was interesting and instructive. He has been a close student of conditions in Japan, and is thoroughly Informed regarding the same.- r . REV. MR. BROWN SPEAKS. "One night St. Paul "had a vision, and In ; that vision," said Mr. Brown, "he received a call to Macedonia; he designated that vision as the Mace donian -call. - : .' - ;- : .. : " " "' " "I come to speak tof you to-night about the call from the empire of Ja pan to the Christian Church. "About 800 years ago there was a great man ' in Japan who was also a great general. To the memory of this man there are temples erected m Japan; and many of the Inhabitants come to these temples praying to be delivered from leprosy,: and praying for the blessmg of the dead general upon them. - - , . ."SuDerstitlon dwells In the nature of at least half of the Inhabitants oM Japan; the other half of the people are filled with a spirit of indifference. "Go north for 21 miles and you will find the record of the suicide of num bers of bright young men, students In th universities. Why have they committed suicide? . . Because they have been studying philosophy and have, sought for v light .wftlch human teaching does not give; realizing this they have fallen Into a hopeless state and have endea their lives. . ' "The first cry that comes to the Western .world fro mJapan is a cry of need need arising from sprltual darkness ,in which the inhabitants live. And I am glad . to say the. Churches In the Western world V are hearing that cry of need and are showing their willingness : to meet that need by sending out men and women to Japan to lead them into spiritual light. Budhism, skepticism and other teachings have made en trance into Japan and have en deavored to claim the Japanese as their followers, but these efforts are ending in failure. The Christian re ligion Is the only teaching that can supply the need of the empire jof Japan, and the Christian religion-is meeting with success. Before the Christian religion was carried to Ja-i pan there was no such a thing as a hospital In thempire, nor was there an orphanage or any Institution of a, benevolent character. " The progress that is being made in Japan by Christianity is the cause of the cry of triumph that is heard In the empire, and this cry of' triumph should be the means of maklngg the Christian church go forward in its work of Christianizing the Japanese. "The work of the Lutheran Church In the South has. been successful in Japan, but we have not done all that we should have done. The $57,000 that we have given has been blessed. but we should be mofe liberal In our gifts; to this work, and must be more liberal lr we are to discharge our duty. , We feel that we must have mission schools In Japan tn order to carry on our work. Other Jieathen nations have their eyes upon Japan and will be Influenced for Christianity largely as Japan Is Influenced, hence the greater need for us' to bei more actively and earnestly at WQrk fin our efforts to hasten the time when Ja pan will be won for our Lord and His Christ. . God speed the time when this will p true." The sum of szs.ooo for the build to te f tel.ig C! a such etrtnsth -as r; ; ; ..r and r,?w 'onea ad ts Uke CeSr place9. Ila said t:.:t the church Is daviloping along all gsneral lines and that the members have much for which to be thankful. It is an Interesting fact to note that the first woman's mis sionary society in the , Lutheran Church cf the South was organized by Dr. EhafTer, In the church at Shep pardstown, Va., In 1878, Dr. Holland being the pastor of that church at that time. Dr. Shaffer is the father of Rev. W. C. .Shaffer, Jr., who is assistant to Dr. Holland and who is already recognized as one of the mopt thoughtful preachers and suc cessful Christian workers among the large number of young ministers ia Charlotte. . Before the close of the service? last night Dr. Holland announced that the Gins' uuua or st Mark's Church had assumea tne woric of supporting a EiDie woman in japan. - y .'y-.i ' v: v BRIEFS.
