Matth. 13, 33. While looking back on a year which has been compara- tively barren of visible fruits of our mission work, let us bear this parable of our Lord in mind. Though the leaven be hid for a time, it is neither lost nor useless; it is doing its work of fermenting the mass, and its wholesome and re- generating influence will be seen in due time. During the year past we have had to lament the loss by death (5th September) of the honoured President of our Home Committee, the Rev. Ch. J. Riggenbach, v.o., Professor of Theology at the Unwersity of Basel, a loss equally felt by the church of his country and by our Missionary Society, whose President he had been for twelve years. In November last the Rev. E. Miescher, late of St. Gallen, now of Basel, was called by the Committee to take the vacant chair, and accepted the call. Before reporting on our work in India we would say a few words in respect of the other mission-fields of our society. Besides India, the Basel Evangelical Missionary Society has for many years been doing mission work in the British territory of the Gold Coast in Africa, in the province of Can- ton of the Chinese Empire, and for the last four years in the German territory of Cameroon in Western Africa. ol nd 13 In the following table we give an abstract of the work done in the different parts of the world where our society’s missions are established.

A considerable number of European workers had to leave India for Germany or Switzerland on account of failing health, some, indeed, in the hope of a speedy return with re- cruited strength, others for good. Mr. and Mrs. Schenkel of Udapi left in February 1890, Mr. and Mrs. Warth of Bijapur in March, Mrs. Walz had to leave her work and her husband in Mavrch, Mr. Walz hoping to be able to stay for some time longer, but his health breaking down suddenly, he had to follow her in July. Malabar has to lament the loss of Mr. and Mrs. Knobloch, who had worked for 25 and 23 years in that mission-field, and who have little hope of returning. We hope that Mr. and Mrs. Diez and Mr. and Mrs. Ernst, late of Mangalore, who had to leave us in April and in September respectively, will be able to return ere long to their beloved India. M. and Mrs. Schenkel of Udapi, Mr. Feuchter of Calicut, Mr. Schmidt of Codacal, Mr. Qlatifelder of Mangalore also left us in the course of the year under report, while the departure of Mr. and Mrs. Digel, Miss Hofmann, Mr. and Mrs. Krapf, Mr. and Mrs. Minner, Mr. and Mrs. Fischer, Mr. and Mrys. Hirner, Mr. and Mrs. Schmolck have taken place in the current year. Some, though not all, of the breaches thus made in our ranks have been filled up by the return from Germany and I Switzerland of several older missionaries. Myr. and Mrs. al ch Hartmann arrived at the beginning of the year 1890; they have since been busy in evangelising the district east and north- ) east of Mangalore. Mr. Hoch, who with his partner landed he at Mangalore in December last, has taken the place of M. Diez 1y as superintendent of our Theological Seminary, and has also the 15 s been appointed president of our General Local Committee, vice Mr. Minner. Mr. Schinthal with his wife returned to take charge again of the Weaving Establishment at Cannanore. Mr. Lauffer, who has been at work in Malabar since 1856, returned to India for the third time with his partner, and will be occupied in doing itinerating work from his head-quarters Calicut. Mr. and Mrs. Weismann are appointed for the station Chombala. Besides these veteran missionaries, we had the pleasure of welcoming some new-comers, Mr. Bucher (already mentioned in the report for 1889), intended for our High School at Mangalore, though for the present stationed at Dharwar, Messrs. Buchli, Bretschneider and Sautter, who have already begun to assist in the Mercantile Mission and Industrial Branches, Miss Kaundinya, the daughter of our pensioner Mr. Kaundinya of Anandapur, Miss Lehmann, married to Mr. Rehm at Calicut, and Miss Keller, married to Mr. Berls at Bijapur. Several of our workers had to resort to the hills to repair their health. Among them we mention our veteran Mp. Minner, who did not however on the Nilgiris find the strength he had hoped for from the change, but was so much reduced in strength, that we feared he would die in India. He has been spared, however, and permitted to sail for Germany on the Ist March of the current year. The year has been unusually trying on account of sickness, Influenza visited all our stations and attacked the missionaries and their families, as well as their native fellow-workers, the children in schools and orphanages, and the members of their churches. Mr. Brasche of Udapi reports that at one time f he had no less than fifty patients in the schools under his management, while all his native assistants were laid up at 4 the same time, but that he also realised the truth of the 30 16 gracious promise, «Call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me”. We are greatly indebted to the medical gentlemen of the respective stations for their kind and assiduous, and in most cases gratuitous medical assistance to the missionaries, their families, and the people under their charge, and would especi- ally tender our heartfelt thanks to Dr. W. A. Lee, Surgeon-Major, and Mr. R. Peter, Dresser, at Mangalore, Mr. A. F. Mathias, Apothecary at Bantwal, Mr. Gaskoyne, Apothecary at Udapi, Dr. Engineer at Karwar, Dr. Marsden at Mercara, Mr. D’Jordon at Anandapur, Dr. Mc. Conaghy and Dr. Channer at Dharwar, Dr. Cardoz at Hubli, Dr. Pefers at Bijapur, Mr. B. Colago, Apothecary at Kasargod, Dr. Bain at Canna- nore, Mr. J. Verghese, Apothecary at Wadagara. B. Native Ageﬁcy. 1 Native Pastors. The number of these is 15, the same as last year. We lament the loss of two 2. Evangelists and Catechists. among these by death. One of them, Catechist Silas Shanta at Kaity, had for many years been a faithful preacher to his heathen countrymen, the Badagas, daily visiting them in their villages and houses. While engaged in this work of faith and love he was attacked with small-pox, and was called home by the Lord of the harvest. His desire, that God might give him strength and grace to work for Him till his son Isaiah, a student in the Theological Seminary at Mangalore, could take up his work, was granted. While the father was passing from toil to rest, his son was passing his examination, and three weeks after he arrived to take up his father’s work. At Bettigeri Catechist Lazarus Sanjiva was cut off from his Iy work of itinerancy by influenza. He had been engaged in 0 this work for three years only, but had the privilege of dying fe i e in harness. Wﬁle during the time of influenza all his fellow- workers and even the missionaries were laid aside by the disease, he was able to work and cheerfully did the work of others too, carrying on the daily services of the passion week, the lessons in the seminary and the burial services for the dead. When others recovered he received the call and died joyfully, knowing that he was the Lord’s. To the number of Catechists of 1889, we have had the pleasure of adding eleven new men, who after finishing their course in the Theological Seminary at Mangalore passed their examination and are already at work in different stations, one in the Southern Mahratta country, seven in Canara, two in Malabar, and one on the Nilgiris. The whole band now amounts to 5 Evangelists, 96 Catechists, and 14 Assistant Catechists. Of this number 49 are at work in Canara, 9 in the Southern Mahratta country, 39 in Malabar, and 4 on the 10 Nilgiris. There was, during the year under report, a great deal of 70 sickness among our native assistants; that hitherto almost >f[& unknown disease, influenza, spared few of our workers and 115 bereaved several of them; some were for many months pre- el vented from doing their work. We rejoice to say, that we ith have had to mourn over no case of grievous sin among our Catechists, though one of them was, justly or unjustly, under e 176 a cloud of suspicion. Most of them have been faithful workers both among Christians and non-Christians, and testimonies ), & such as the following given by a missionary concerning one ake ing of his Catechists, are not rare: N, N. is well qualified for his work, he is working cheerfully “approving himself as a minister and of God, by honour and dishonour, by evil report and good ] h.lS report”. Some however being in danger of falling into a kind of lazy jog-trot, had to be exhorted and reproved, and not a g few fail to live within their means and contract debts, thus 7103 3 18 PSSO S becoming a stumbling block to others and bringing disgrace on the name of Christ. 3. Christian Schoolmasters. At the end of 1890 the num- ber of these was 136, and that of the schoolmistresses 45, while 102 noun-Christian schoolmasters were employed. The particulars of their distribution may be seen in the Census. We had the grief of being obliged to dismiss one of their number, who had forgotten himself and his calling so far as to live in sin with the wife of a fellow-worker. Some others had to be dismissed on account of laziness or unfitness for their work. 4. Bible-women. There are 4 in Canara, 2 in the Southern Mahratta country, 12 in Malabar, and 2 on the Nilgiris, alto- gether 20. 5 One of their number had to be Christian Colporteurs. dismissed on account of falling into sin, another for em- bezzlement of a considerable sum of money entrusted to him. The Lord will reward those who have been doing their work faithfully. Thus the total of agents employed, European and Native, 1s H68. May the Lord pour upon them all a rich measure of his quickening and sanctifying spirit. 2. The Work done. 2 A. The Native Church. ) The number of baptised Christians connected with the f Basel Mission at the end of 1890 was 9886, 204 more than (i in 1889, 98 heathen or Mohamedan adults, and 79 children 0 have been baptised; besides 431 children of Christian parents. li 223 members of our churches have died during the year under review. Imitating the example of Paul the Apostle, we would s 19 ceslidona B first of all thank God, the Father of oui' Lord Jesus Christ, for the faith and love and hope He has graciously awakened in the hearts of many of the members of our churches, and for all the grace He has given them during the past year, also for receiving into His heavenly home many who, born in darkness and sin, have by the spirit of adoption been born again as His children. We thank God that most of our stations can report that the attendance at divine service is generally good in the morning, though less so at the afternoon- and week-day ser- vices; we thank Him that family-worship is reported to be offered daily in most houses, that on several stations, especi- ally at Mangalore, the young men have formed choirs and diligently practise on week-days the hymns and anthems which enliven the Sunday services and which, from personal knowledge we can say, are very well sung indeed. We are thankful to mention that at several stations some of the young men regularly engage in evangelistic work on Sunday afternoons, or instruct the catechumens in the rudi- ments of Christian truth, that weekly prayer meetings held from house to house, are on the whole well attended, that of { the majority of our stations it can be reported that they regularly paid their church-dues, and that many church- members were willing of themselves to contribute something to the Lord’s cause, that several larger stations such as Mangalore, Mulky, Codacal and several smaller ones had to report no case of excommunication, Above all, we are glad he to know, that there is a leaven of Christian life in every congregation, men and women, who quietly and without i ¢l ostentation, are doing their duty to God and man, and are a 15 light to the surrounding heathen world. On the other hand, while reading the yearly reports of the ler ld stations, we have been deeply grieved to find that the reporters 3* 20 RILEEEE G had found much more to complain of than to rejoice at. Mulky, Bettigeri, Dharwar, Cannanore and other stations complain of the laziness of many church-members in attending divine service, and of consequent ignorance of the Word of God; at other stations, such as Guledgudd, Dharwar, Bettigeri, Mulky, we have to fight against unwillingness on the part of parents to send their children to school. This unwillingness is some- times caused by poverty, but much more frequently by in- difference or weakness, niggardliness and covetousness, which induce parents to keep their children at home to escape pay- ing the school-fee or to get as much work out of them as possible. In some places, such as Mushtigeri, out-station of Guledgudd, people are exceedingly unwilling to pay their church-dues. But there is an enemy, more dangerous and more powerful than those already mentioned, and one which is giving us more trouble year by year, we mean drinking habits. Though the drinking of toddy seems to be compara- tively innocent, yet being generally done in excess, so as to cause intoxication, it leads to poverty and a host of other evils, brandy drinking not the least of them. We have been glad to learn, that the native presbyters of some stations are a great help to the missionaries in fighting against this evil, while at other stations they are too lenienAt, and even inclined to wink at it. Drinking, extravagance, and thoughtlessness are generally the cause of poverty and debt, which, we are sorry to say, many of our Christians are involved in; but at the same time, we cannot but pity the poor farmers of Canara, who are often ground to the dust by the extortions of their land- lords and are almost hopelessly involved in debt. The Education of Children leaves much room for improve- ment, not so much. their intellectual education, which is attended to in schools, but their bringing up in the nurture —— 21 and édmonition of the Lord, which must chiefly be done by home influence. Several reports of stations, especially Calicut and Tellicherry, complain of insubordination of the young, of nightly excesses and riots, seduction of girls by young men, of lampoons and libels written and secretly attached Calicut, to people’s houses at night by godless youths. Anandapur, Udapi, Guledgudd and some other stations had to excommunicate several persons on account of adultery, and at Anandapur and one of the out-stations of Udapi a number of people left us and went back to heathenism. We are afraid many of our readers who pray for the coming of the kingdom of God, will be deeply grieved at the dark picture we have had to draw, and may even be tempted to doubt the utility of mission-work; but let them remember these two things,—first, that our Lord himself has taught us that “many are called but few are chosen” and second, that «so is the kingdom of God as if a man should cast seed into the ground and should sleép and rise night and day and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how”; for the working of God’s spirit in the heart is often hidden to human eyes and its progress that which cannot be reported, while “the wicked are like raging waves of the sea foaming out their own shame”. B. Evangelisation. Though many of our missionaries and native assistants are engaged in pastoral or school-work, yet a good number is [ 0 entirely set aside for the work among the heathen and Moha- medans ; and those engaged in other work occasionally do the work of evangelists. It would be tedious to enumerate all the tours that have been made, the heathen festivals and fairs that have been visited; we shall confine ourselves to delineating 18 10 a few striking features illustrating this branch of our work. 22 Mode of working. DBesides preaching in the bazars of towns at weekly and yearly fairs on festivals, where sometimes as many as 20,000 people are gathered together, visiting and preaching from house to house is now much practised, especi- ally on the coast, where the people generally do not live in large village communities but far from each other, each family on its own farmstead or estate. Mr. Gengnagel of Basrur writes: “We not only travel along the trunk-roads of the country, but turning aside into the by-ways, and going to the remotest nooks and corners, we remain till we have visited every house. By doing so the difficulties of traveliing are increased, it is true, but we gain the confidence of the people; they see that we love them and care for them, and the fruit will not fail.” Mr. Digel of Honavar writes: ¢“In visiting villa- ges, we remained till every house had been visited. People cheerfully listened and men invited us to come to their veran- das.” Mr. Walter of Vaniyankulam reports: <House-to- house visiting is followed by the best resulté; our experience has been most encouraging, even at places where at first the cold shoulder had been shown to us. At a certain place a landlord received us very coldly, though he permitted us to talk to his people. After some time, his steward came and told us to go. When this did not avail, he and the landlord left us and went to the garden, drawing after them the other members But while we of their family who had been listening to us. were talking to a male servant occupied in dressing vege- tables for dinner the master of the house gradually drew nearer and nearer and ended by becoming quite friendly”. Obstacles. Mr. Kiihnle of Palghat writes: «At the fair at Kalputti we were much annoyed by certain Brahmin boys. On the morning of the last day of the fair we had scarcely arrived on the ground when a lad with a printed lampoon in his hand placed himself quite near to us and began to read e 23 it and to hold forth to the people about its contents Most of the people who had gathered around us to listen to our address, went over to hear what our opponent had got to say When after some time they left him and returned to us, our opponent, not liking that state of things, placed himself im- mediately in front of us and with his companions began to shout and to vociferate in such a manner, that we found it impossible to make ourselves heard even by the bystanders We looked around for the police, but in vain At last the Police Superintendent came and forced our opposers to keep the distance prescribed by law (100 yards) But the police had scarcely gone when the disturbance was renewed. This was done again and again At last they began to throw stones and became so excited that the Police Superintendent fearing a riot, advised us to leave the place Preaching under such circumstances as these may seem to be worse than useless but let us remember that we have an example in St. Paul who preached under similar circum- stances and encountered similar opposition at Lystra, Ephesus Philippi, Athens, etc.; yea Christ himself did the same John 7, 4. 28. 37. 43. 44 Moreover we know by experience, that at many places not excepting large idol fairs where our preachers at first had met with the most stubborn resistance, the opposition gradually died away and now the missionary i3 looked for as a necessary accompaniment of the fair. Evangelist Hutten at Tellicherry writes: «We have travelled two or three together and preached in 17 Amshams, 64 De- shams. at 10 fairs and 1dol festivals and 17 villages Once we came to a carpenter’s house where four altars had been It erected to demons When we began to point out to the people of the house the evil consequences of demon-worship the carpenter’s wife became possessed, her face lost colour = s and screaming and gnashing her teeth she cried, ‘What, you R 24 blaspheme my gods? I shéll presently show you the fruit of your blasphemy!” Then turning to her husband she looked at him with flaming eyes and cried, ‘You shall not listen to them, otherwise I shall cleave your skull’ Running to and fro in her fury she at last lost consciousness, and fell il to the ground. At fairs and similar gatherings, we occasionally have to encounter opposition-preachers, and for the last two years an astrologer and two Konkani traders have most strenuously been opposing us. Some instance Col. Olcott and Madam Blavatsky as witnesses, or point to the division of Christians into several churches and sects to prove that Christiarity cannot be the true religion. On the other hand we meet with many encouraging facts. At Pattawani, a place notorious > Encouraging for drinking and smoking of hemp, where in facts. former years we encountered nothing but scorn and uproarious opposition, a Nambutiri Brahmin rebuked the disputants and expressed his desire to hear more, and when we had read to him extracts from the sermon on the mount, he said, ‘Those are good words, I shall think on them’. A Shudra said, ‘Formerly I used to bring offerings. to this temple year by year, but I have given it up now, finding no satisfaction in my shastras. They contradict each other. Having heard your shastras, I am now in doubts what to believe. May God help me to believe in .your God.—We have even found people who would accompany us from house to house and recommend our message to their countrymen. A Government Officer is very much interested and seems to be ‘not far from the kingdom’. When his children were ill, he sent for the Bible-women to pray with the children”. Evangelist Bethuel Soens of Mangalore writes: «“Near Puttur we met a Brahmin who (alluding to native assistants) said, ‘A big hawk came flying from Germany, a far country, f il and carried away some fine young birds, which on their part are now trying to catch some more birds. We the Brahmins He is now our friend.” must try our best to prevent them’. My Walter reports of the reception he met with among | people— «Young India says: ‘It is quite right of you to tell people not to steal nor to cheat, but it is not right to ask them to become Christians. Of course there is only one God, and just as all rivers flow into the sea, so the devotions of all reli- gions, though of different names and forms, unite upon Him. Those things in the shastras that seem contradictory to science and morals, must either be explained metaphorically or ex- punged, and there will remain a rich store of moral and religious truths’”. We wonder what standard the expungers are to go by. «But there are many”, Mr. Walter continues, «“who know and confess: ‘We are poor deceived people; in spite of all our endeavours we can find no comfort and no salvation with our gods. It is you who show us the way of life. How gladly should we become Christians if we were not tied down by the fetters of castel An old man said: ‘You are doing a good work; do not lose courage, the Christian % religion will surely conquer. Though we old people may not live to see it, yet our children will’.” Mr. Kiihnle of Palghat reports: «At A. Obstacles. several families are quite near; they pray to the Saviour, give biblical names to their children and attend 0 divine service; but to break caste they lack courage. We 0 made a visit to the village of K., lying in the midst of the forest. An old man M. has for years given up idolatry and is continually searching the scriptures, but as to break- He and his household Al ing caste, he is not equal to it. received us with great joy, entertained us and listened 5 fs to oqr message, and at last we could gather them to divine 4 26 service. One of the sons of the old man, however, had more courage than his father and renounced caste. When I informed him that he would be baptised he shed tears of joy. He is now a consistent Christian. There are many inquirers in that neighbourhood.” At Codacal station, near the railway from Beypur to Coimbatore, there were 126 catechumens, out of whom 29 could be baptized after careful instruction ; more, it is hoped, will be baptized in the course of the current year. Mr. Hole of Cannanore made a tour to the Wayanad where he found new openings and had the privilege of receiving into the church of Christ an elderly farmer who had many years ago heard the Gospel from Mr. Hebich, had afterwards been leading a wandering life stained with many a sin, but was at last desirous of finding rest for his soul. Cooly-mission. Myr. Hafner reports of the Cooly mission carried on in the coffece estates of Coorg:— «Many planters permit us to preach early in the morning. At the beating of a gong at 6 or half past 6 the coolies come out of their huts with their hoes or knives and gather near the bungalow of the planter. Then some portion of the Bible (generally 'historical) is narrated to them in a simple style. The narration is illustrated with incidents of their own life and application is made to the hearers. The whole address lasts 15 or 20 minutes and is generally listened to with great attention. Some planters think the loss of time too great to permit preaching in the morning, 300 coolies listen- ing for half an hour each causing a loss of no less than 150 hours of work! But in the evening after the coolies have re- \1 turned from their work and have got through fetching water and wood to their barracks, the overseers call them together and our address is given in the same way as in the morning. Often questions are asked and answered, and many a time § 27 Gt it gets so late that the preacher has to be accompanied home by a torch-bearer We gratefully acknowledge the contributions received from several of the planters towards the Cooly-mission (See acknowledgments at the close of this Report.) As to the fruit of this work we can show very little It 1s sowing in the hope of a future harvest which others may be privileged to reap; for the coolies go back to their homes and most of them are seen no more. Myr. Bode at Anandapur, however, writes of one who kneW the account of the creation of the world, the Ten Command- ments and some parts of the New Testament by heart My Liitze of Kaity, where a similar work is carried on among the coolies of the tea and coffee plantations of the Nilgiris, reports of the baptism of a young man Joseph Karpa, the first-fruit of the Cooly-mission of those parts:—«When three months old he had been left to his fate in the jungle by his mother, who driven to despair by the cruelties of her husband, afterwards drowned herself Some women who had gone to the jungle to gather wood, found the helpless babe and took it to the nearest village where it was recognized by his grand-mother The father not caring for the child, his grand-mother brought him up. But later on, influenced by her youngest son, she began to treat him so unkindly that he left her to work for his own livelihood Even when he returned to his grand- o mother and brought her his savings, she only treated him kindly so long as his money lasted. Again he had to shift for 0 himself and came to Awoka near Hulikallu on the Nilgiris where he was led to Jesus by our Catechist Karl and his brother.” May this first-fruit be an earnest of a rich ol ! harvest ! The 20 Bible-women have been engaged in sowing the - good seed in the hearts of their benighted sisters We quote ne 4% 28 e from the report of Mrs. Frohnmeyer: «“We know quite a number of women who not only listen to the Word of God, but listen with intelligence and much appreciate the visits of the Bible-women as well as their Christian hymns and prayers. Recently I received the unexpected news of the death of an old friend, an aged Hindu whose house I had now and then visited in the company of the Bible-women Hanna and Rhoda. He had been one of those who long ago parted with idolatry and other heathen superstitions, are familiar with the Bible, appreciate and love it, pray to Jesus, but are prevented by some cause or other from confessing him openly. He suddenly died of apoplexy after praying to the Lord only the evening before. Having, a short time before his death, built a new house for his son-in-law and furnished it entirely in European style, he invited our two Bible-women to its consecration. One of them read the 23rd Psalm, the other a prayer out of our prayer-book in the presence of a great gathering of Hindus. Then the old man brought a prayer, composed by himself, and asked them to read it. The prayer was directed to the Almighty Creator of heaven and earth, asked forgiveness of sin, renovation of the heart and God’s blessing on the house. I was much pleased with the daughter of a pensioned police-officer, a man who has known the Word of God for many years and who has meetings in his house in which God’s Word is read and discussed. I read to her the passage James1,22 etc. f I was It was touching to see how attentively she listened. especially astonished at her knowledge of sin, a thing which i1s very rare in this country, and was agreeably surprised that she listened without interrupting me, a thing not less rare”. Mrs. Liitze of Kaity reports: “There is now much change for the better in the reception our Bible-women meet with. df Formerly the Badaga women would not listen to their message, 4 29 Lol but now many are glad to listen, and some ask the Bible- women to tell them the Bible stories again and again.” We are very grateful to the British and Foreign Bible Society for their assistance by which we have been enabled to take up and carry on this most important work. It 1s most essentially «a work of faith and labour of love” re- quiring “much patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ”. C. Schools. Theological Seminary. As mentioned in last year’s Report it has been thought expedient to separate the natives of Malabar, whose vernacular is Malayalam, from the natives of the Tulu and Canarese districts, who receive their instruction in Canarese. Consequently in the month of June four Mala- yalam students were transferred from the Mangalore Semi- nary to Zellicherry. They were joined by three lads who had finished their course in the Preparandi School at Tellicherry. Of this number one ran away, another one had to suspend his studies for a while on account of ill-health and became an assistant to the Medical Missionary Dr. Liebendorfer. Thus 5 students were left, of whom 3 classes had to be formed. | The superintendent, Mr. Frohnmeyer, is looking forward to the time when he hopes to get larger classes from the d new Christian High School which has taken the place of the former Preparandi School. The Mangalore Seminary under Mr. Hoch numbers 25 stu- 1S b dents in 4 classes. The students are practically initiated in b their evangelistic work by attending and taking part in the preaching of the Gospel that is carried on twice a week in g the bazaar of the town and at the Anglo-Vernacular School, as well as by occasional preaching tours. We may mention i a lengthened tour to Southern Mahratta undertaken in the 10y 30 e months of January and February and extending as far as Guledgudd in the Bijapur Collectorate. Eleven pupils finished their studies and passed their ex- amination in March 1890 and were consequently consecrated for their work as Catechists; 7 natives of Canara, 2 of Mala- bar, 1 of the Southern Mahratta country, and 1 of the Nilgiris. They have been stationed in their respective native provinces. To prepare for the two Theological Seminaries we have two Preparandi Schools at Udapi and Bettigeri, and the Christian School at Tellicherry. The Preparandi School at Udapi under Mr. Brasche, num- bering 31 pupils, gives a most useful education to aspirants for the Theological Seminary, aiming above all at thorough- ness generally, but especially in biblical knowledge, and at the same time at the formation of a Christian character in its pupils. Instead of the Preparandi School which hitherto existed at Tellicherry, a Christian High School has been opened under the superintendence of Mr. Schaal. At the close of 1890 117 pupils were in attendance, 88 of whom were Christians. It has a two-fold object, first of enabling the Christian youth of Malabar to get a sound Christian education instead of the t1 purely secular one which they have had up to this time in 1l Government schools or in schools intended for non-Christians, and second of preparing candidates for the Theological Semi- d W nary at Tellicherry. It remains to be seen whether the latter object will be attained. i The Preparandi School at Bettigeri (Gadag) in the Southern at A small seminary is cf Mahratta country, numbers 12 pupils. connected with it in which young men of little previous educa- th tion, yet desirous of preaching the Gospel to their country- 81 men, are trained through the medium of the vernacular only for the work of Assistant Catechists, or, as they are called o elsewhere, Scripture-Readers. 8 31 S Connected with the two Preparandi Schools at Udapi and Bettigeri and the Christian High School at Tellicherry there are three training schools for the purpose of training Christian School-masters. There are [ d ( , 6, and 5 pupils re- spectively in these institutions undergoing the necessary train- ing. Including the above mentioned schools for the training of mission agents we have altogether 121 schools numbering 6296 pupils (exclusive of sunday schools) with 1221 Christ- 1an boys, 925 Christian girls, 3733 non-Christian boys and 417 non-Christian girls. Further particulars may be learnt from the school- census printed with this Report. We need scarecly mention that Bible history in a summarised form and a selection of Bible texts are taught in all our primary schools, not ex- cepting those for non-Christians, while in the Anglo-Verna- cular Schools the pupils are taught to read the Bible itself. In our girls’ schools the girls are taught needle-work by the wives of the missionaries or by Christian school- mistresses. At several places we have been greatly encouraged by the willingness, yea eagerness, of the non-Christian popula- tion to contribute to the erection of a mission school in their midst. Thus Mr. Digel reports of Anilgodu, a village at some El distance from Honavar:—«The toddy-drawers of that place, 1 who are also land-owners, built a neat school-house with a o1 small house for the school-master in a good and healthy situ- ation; and what is still more to be prized, they send their 0 children very regularly to school. The school was opened on 18 the 1st of March and numbers 38 children, 37 boys and 1 girl.” [y To this readiness on the part of the despised toddy-drawers )y to make sacrifices for the education of their children, the nig- jed gardliness of the Haviga Brahmins about Honavar forms a 32 R L striking contrast. Though a school had been opened in their midst at Hepenkeri, and they undertook to build a house for the school-master, they broke their promise and never gave a pie for the school, which consequently was closed again. In the neighbourhood of Kasargod also people are ready to erect school-houses, at least to contribute something to- wards their erection. Owing to this willingness Mr. Hermelink, the missionary in charge of that station, has been able gra- dually to increase the number of schools at and about Kasar- god to ten, numbering no less then 621 pupils, of which only 23 are Christians. A particularly cheering feature of our educational mis- sion-branch is the large number of schools among the tribes of the Nilgiri-hills, who had formerly been so set in their opposition to any kind of Christian influence. But now there are, in connection with the stations of Kaity and Kotageri, as many as 22 schools with 531 children, 438 of them being non-Christians. D. Literary Department and Colportage. Two committees have been at work during the past year revising two of the three versions of the Bible which are used in our Mission, the Tulu and the Malayalam versions. The committee for the revision of the Tulu version of the New Testament, consisting of the Rev. A. Minner, Rev. P. Ott, Rev. G. Ritter, Rev. J. Hermelink, Rev. Ch. Gojar, Rev. Jared Soens and Mr. Obed Sumitra, Catechist, met several times, and f] have now got as far as the 2nd Epistle to the Thessalonians 11 inclusively. They hope to finish their work, to which a tenta- tive translation of the four Gospels and the Acts by the Rev. D R. Hartmann had partly prepared the way, in the course of 0t the current year. | The committee for the revision of the Malayalam version Wi 33 AL R is composed of Rev. S. Walter, Rev. F. Matthissen, Fev. J. Frohnmeyer of the Basel Mission, Rev. W. J. Richards and the Venerable Archdeacon Koshi Koshi of the Church Mission, Rev. S. Mateer and a Native Pastor of the London Mission, and Kartendr Thomas of the Syrian Church. After the work of revision had been at a stand-still for five years, owing to some spirited controversy between the Northern and the Southern members of the committee, the committee met at Calicut on the 26th August last, and continued in session for nearly 3 weeks. Though the Gospel according to St. Matthew only was finished, all the fundamental questions were dis- cussed and thus the way prepared for the work of a second session which took place in February and March last and finished the remaining three Gospels. The question of a revision of the Canarese version of the Bible has likewise been mooted during the past year; but as yet some preliminary steps only have been taken. Concerning the Printing Press and the Tract and Book Depository Mr. Huber reports: The Press under the able management of Mr. Hirner had ! also during the last year to meet with a good deal of fair 10 and unfair competition. We are thankful to say that suffi- cient orders were entrusted to us, to keep all the fifty people he who get their livelihood in the Press, busily engaged during the whole year. i The printing of Mr. Kittel’s large Canarese-English Dic- i tionary has been steadily going on, and the first half of this important work has now been carried through the press. s \! In November Mr. Huber was transferred from the Book Depot to the Press in order to acquaint himself with the Jel ) 0f business. He will subsequently take charge of the manage- ment, in place of My. Hirner who intends to go to Europe with his family on a well-earned furlough. sion 34 We subjoin A LIST OF BOOKS Printed at our Press from the 1st November 1889 to 31lst October 1890. I. Canarese.

Industrial and Mercantile Establishmehts. For years the Codacal Station has lost a number of its church-members by emigration to other parts of the country in search of occupation, so as to be able to obtain an honest living. For on their profession of Christianity many have been deprived of their livelihood. Many more would have joined us if they had seen some honest way of supporting themselves and their families after becoming Christians and thereby outcasts in the eyes of their countrymen. Last year there were no fewer than 126 candidates for baptism, and many more inquirers. With a view to provide those who lose their means of subsistence on becoming Christians, with some other means of gaining their livelihood by honest labour, our Home Committee have resolved on making a trial with tile-works. Similar considerations had led to the establishment of our other factories. We have now the following Industrial and Mercantile Establishments :— The Tile-works at Kudroli and Jeppu (Mangalore), ” ” , Malpe near Udapi, » ” RS R e e e A s = e . Calicih, ” ” , Codacal; the Weaving Establishments at Mangalore, Cannanore and Calicut, with branches at Mulky, Chombala, Tellicherry and Codacal ; the Carpenter’s Workshop at Calicut; the Mechanical 10 Workshop at Mangalore; and the Mercantile Mission-Branches ot at Mangalore, Mercara and Calicut. 18 In these establishments the work of the day begins with Scripture reading and prayer. Christian workmen are S\ encouraged to save something so as to be able to apquire e 38 property of their own. In this way many of our Christians at Mangalore and its suburbs Jeppu and Kudroli, at Cannanore, Chombala and Calicut have gradually been enabled to build themselves houses and acquire a small home- stead of their own. At Jeppu and Bokapatna near Kudroli neat chapels have been built and schools established for the Christians who have settled in the neighbourhood. * s kS The preceding pages give a summarised view of our work dealing with matters of general interest. We now proceed to briefly report on each separate station for the benefit of those more particularly interested in one or other of the various centres of our mission-work.

The works are now carried on by a native overseer under the superintendence of the Mercantile Mission-Branch, Mangalore. The tiles not meeting with a ready sale, many workmen had to be dismissed. On this account the works have not been as helpful to the Native Christians as we should have wished. During the rains, when it is difficult to find work, many could not find employment. KARKALA.

Altenmiiller of the Mercantile Mission-Branch in Mangalore, and for upwards of nine years From March 1888 was his faithful and prayerful helpmate. to December 1889 she was with her husband on furlough in Europe, and leaving five children at home accompanied him to India when he came out the second time and landed at Mangalore on the 6th January 1890. The six months she was permitted to stay in India this second time were months of trial a_Jnd sickness. In February she lost a baby son and On the 28th June she declined in health from that time. was attacked by fever which proved to be typhoid, and on Saturday the 5th July 1890 she fell asleep in Jesus. Her last audible prayer was, “Take care of my soul, Lord Jesus! receive my spirit’’. She lies buried by the side of her brother- in-law Mr. K. Hauri whose death we had to report last year. 2 Catechist Silas Shanta see p. 16. 3 Catechist Lazarus Sanjiva see p. 16. 4 Mprs. Elise Fieg, née Hollinder, late of Calicut, died 2nd April 1890 at Godesberg in Germany after long, protracted and painful suffering which she bore patiently and submissively. 5 Myrs. Layey, née Wirnle, late of Dharwar, the widow of Mr. Layer whose death was mentioned in last year’s report, was born at Stuttgart in February 1817 of pious parents and was herself a sincere and devoted Christian. When in the 10% 7 year 1842 she received a call to serve the Lord in his vine- yard as the wife of a missionary, she willingly obeyed the call, went to India and was married to the Rev. J. Layer at Dharwar, with whom she was in India till his failing health obliged him in 1849 to return to Germany. There in the parsonage of Wilhelmsdorf, a small but god-fearing village in the south-west of Germany, she was 37 years a faithful helpmate to her hushand, who had accepted a call to the ministry of that village, and had the privilege of seeing six of her children, four daughters and two sons, grow up to devote themselves to the Lord’s work in the mission, one in Africa, four in India and one at home. In the latter years of her life she gradually lost her eye-sight, but her spirit was as bright as ever, and she would think and care for everything as she had been accustomed to do before. LIE [{ After the death of her husband in January .1890 her longing to be with Jesus grew stronger, though she was content to live as long as it pleased the Lord to spare her life. About the middle of October last she was taken ill with an inflammation of the lungs, and on the morning of ; the 22nd of October 1890 she fell asleep most peacefully, i to wake where ¢“death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more”. 6 On the first day of the current year Christian Irion late of Tellicherry, went to his last rest. He was born on the 9th of July 1812 at the village of Thuningen in Wiirttemberg, Germany. Having been found by the Lord, he ardently desired to serve him as a missionary to the heathen, and after having studied four years in the Mission College at Basel was ordained in the autumn of 1841 and sent to India, where with the exception of 3 months spent at Bettigeri in the Southern Mahratta country, he laboured at St T Tellicherry for nearly 20 years under many difficulties but not without fruit. In 1860 his wife was obliged by failing health to return to Germany, and early in the year 1861 he had to follow her. Though his heart was in India and he was longing to return there, his health did not permit it, and therefore he was | appointed on deputation work in the Grand-duchy of Baden and the Palatinate of the Rhine, where, from his head-quarters Karlsruhe, he for nearly 23 years travelled through the land appointed to him ¢“in the length of it and in the breadth I of it” faithfully and zealously doing the work of the Master. Though he suffered during the last few years, he continued if to work up to a few weeks of his death. When confined to ] his bed and no more able to work, his one desire was to see Jesus. Once he said to a friend who had come to see him: «Only think what it will be to see Jesus and to be thanking )\ N Him through all eternity. I am all impatience to do it.” After some days of most painful suffering he fell asleep on ! il the night of the 1st January last. He had the privilege of spending nearly 50 years in the service of his Master. May of we “consider the issue of his life and imitate his faith”. | 1 [0 10 ld he on ad ab 18 Concluston We take the opportunity of warmly thanking all the friends who during the past year have kindly helped us by their sympathy, their prayers and their gifts. Btit above aill we thank the Lord who His permitted us to do His work notwithstanding our weakness and shortcomings. May He bless the seed that has been sown and soon send the time when ( “they that sow in tears shall reap in joy”. SUBSCRIPTIONS AND DONATIONS TOWARDS THE MISSION-FUND Received during the year 1890.
