The Indian school at Santa Fé, New Mexico, has had some changes, but
the arrangement between the Association and the trustees is continued,
and the school, under the charge of Prof. Elmore Chase, maintains its
useful service in the training of the children of the Apaches, one of
the most hopeful and promising tribes of Indians on the continent.

THE CHINESE.

The special interest of the year centres in the evangelistic work that
was commenced early in the winter. Of our 39 workers reported,
fourteen are Chinamen, who have been converted in our schools. Two of
these brethren were set apart last December as special evangelists,
one going to our missions in Southern California, and the other to our
more Northern missions. Subsequently another one entered the field.
The intention was to give one month of service at each mission, and
the gratifying experience has been that at no point has this one month
been deemed sufficient. At the end of five months the harvest reported
was forty souls brought to repentance.

Three new missions are upon our list this year; those at Los Angeles,
San Buenaventura, and Tucson. At Los Angeles no less than 75 pupils
were enrolled the first month, and at all these places Christian
Associations have been formed.

A minister on the Pacific Coast not in connection with our schools,
after giving a sketch of work accomplished which could not be
tabulated, says: "Socially, intellectually, spiritually, the Chinese
mission school does its beneficent work. But everything is made but
the means to the spiritual end. The whole drift of the teaching, the
songs, the pictures, the Scripture text, is to make known Christ.
