A, Judson Frost, pustor of the home- churob. Tho following in o brief Listory of the Misston : Tho Evangel Misslon was organizad in the cnrly nrt of '69, o8 the Swan Stroet Mission, by tho Rev. J. Coleman and Mr. A, O. Prout. At the requoat of the friends of the work, the Mlission Jus adopled by the Univorsity Place Baptist Clhurch in the early summor of '71, which placed it in charga of J, W, Daon and J. E. Suthorland. Bhortly aftor, tho work was undortaken with ro- newed effort, under the leadership of Charles E. Popo and G. E. Bajloy. Tho Octobor fire nccgs- sitatod tho resignation of 3Mr, Popo, loaving the Dlission to the ¢are of G, E. Baileyand J. Staloy. In tho onrly pagt of '72, tho school wis doprived of ~ its pleasant quarters in" the District-School building, but wag cordlally invited by the othodist organization o occupy their house of worship on Biate street, Tho commoncement of tho summer of 1872 deprived the school of both its Buporintendents, under whoso efficient care it bad reached its nghuat prosperity, and in their placos W. 1. Runey and J. A. Tolman were olect- od. Tho departure from tho cily, at about tho same time, of the Rev, N. Oarr, who, for several months provious, Liad been sorving the school ag ite missfonary, nlso scriously affected tha work- Ing condition of ‘tho Misslon. In tho fall of tho samo year, tho school was again compolled to romove, and this time into a far less ploasaut Duilding. = A small store on Forty-seventh stroot —tho only availablo place in tho vicinity—was scenrod, whero it has remained until tho present timo. "This chango was o most sorious draw- back to the work, as the building was very in- commodious, and romoved a considerablo dia- tanco from tho homos of its scholars, It hos beon carried on during the prosont yoar uuder tho flgxcxlutmdnnc of W, B. Ronoy and W. W, Osgood. The efliciont Inbors of the Rov, Mr, Cnrr, who returned to_his work last Beptembor, havo been of ineatimablo value. The project of building hnd long ocoupled the minds of tho ofticers and frionds of the Mission, but was not brought to any successfal issuo until March of this year, when tho Chicago Bap- tist Unlon commonced tho erection of a church- building on Burneide stroet, noar Forty-seventh, on lots donated to the University Place Baptis Church by Mr, A, 0. Prout. When the building 'was about half-completod, it waa turned over by the Union to the University Flaco DBaptist Church, who horotofore, on account of its mon- atary affairs, had folt unablo to assume any now fuaucial responsibility, Tho bullding, dosigned by Henry Tn anf' of this oity, is, in 1its fnish and dotail, one of thomost comploto and at- tractivo church-edifices, for its coat, that can bo found in avy of our suburban towus. It lasan enut front of 84 foot, aud a dopth of G3, withs lecturo-room in thorear.

Thoe tfurd' of the sories is an idealistio woman, A female form floats beforo tha eyoes of a vast multitude.
