LADIES WERE RECEIVED CORDIALLY Teaching the Bible in the Scarritt School. ee BISHOP HURST’S TALK The proceedings yesterday of the wo- man’s board of home and foreign missions of the M. E. Church South, following the close of the report in The Star of last ev ing, were full of the greatest interest, and formed what may be termed an epoch in the history of this great representative body of the Southern Church. As foreshadowed in The Evening Star, the Chinese minister and his wife, Mrs. Yang, accorded the members of the board a reception at the legation. Although this was in response to a request from the mem- hers of the board, the granting of the favor 1s thought by the members of the mission beard to signify that China ts about to open her doors more freely to the misstonaries sent from this country, and is preparing to adopt more of the manners and customs of the most enlightened nations. So far as is known this fs the first occasion when an ambassador of the Emperor of China in any land has receive deputation com- posed of ladies who were engaged in send- ing agents to his land for the purpose of tying to induce the subjects of the latter to forsake the religion of their ancestors and accept cne that they did not want. During the re the minister, in re- ply to remarks on the subject by the presi dent of the miss’ 1, Mrs. M. Wightman, told his no oppositicn on the part of the of China or of the educated upper classes to the presence in that country of Chris Sionaries, stating further that the which is known to extst the lowe ses exclusiv reception was a charming affair hroughout and the ladies who attended ere delignted beyond their highest ex- pectations. r had informed the meinbers of the through the State Department that i his wife would be pleased to comply with their uest for a reception, and named 5 o'clock he’ Later, ‘however, the time was changed to as fortunate that this was done, for at o'clock the rain was falling in torrents, and would have been an utter impossibility for have reached the legation. the rain cea: 1 at 5:30 again shining brightly. The members of the board assembled soon after the latter hour in the main re- -eption room, and wh-n announcement Was made that the minister and his wife were ready to receive their visitors ther were present: Mrs. M.

This was also granted, and as soon as she had secured it to its place she exclaimed, “Now Mrs. Yang is a member of. our socic and then the ladies applauded by clapping their hands. Mrs. Yang looked at the pretty badge admiringly, but appeared to wonder what she had done that pleased the lads much. The action of Mrs. Hendrix created some little enthusiasm, and as soon as quiet was again restored Mrs. Wightman, holding a large and magnificently bound Bible in her hands, and addressing the am- bassador, said. “Mr. Minister, we want you to allow Mrs. Yang to accept this copy of our Holy Bible and to permit it to stay in your house.” The minister replied in English, the oni time he used the language during the re ception: “I thank yeu very much,” and Mrs, Yang said also in English, “Thank yeu Miss Campbell, a missionary, who recent- ly returned from China, was introduced to the minister, and for some moments the two persons carried on a conversation in Chinese.
