THE OMAH DAILY BEE HURSDAY, APRIL PURVEORS OF GOD'S WORD | mme, i 2o o, sur Presbyterian Women Mission Workers Meet in Annual Oonvention. ADDRESS OF WELCOME AND RESPONSE orelgn Se. art Report the Im- portant Feature of the First Ses- slon—Addresses in the ivening. The First Congregational church, at which met yesterday morning the thirty-first an- nual convention of the Woman's Presby- terian Board of Missions of the Northwest, was well filled with delegates and others interested in carryiog the word to the beathen. [Every department of the edifice was a scene of activity Besides the main auditorium, in which a very interesting and profitable program was being given, the rooms adjoining were crowded with women, all busy receiving and registering new arrivals and providing for their com- fort. There was the registration room, the postoffice, the retiring or rest room, the check room, the reception room, and, down in the basement, the tea room, where, at 12 o'clock, a luncheon wae served. These are the rooms of the Omaha Woman's club, which have been generously surrendered for the use of the delegates. It is estl- mated that there are at least 400 delegates present, many of them coming from re- mote corners of the habitable globe. Colors of All Nations. With its magnificent decorations of flags, banners and standards, the big auditorium might easily have been mistaken as the meeting place of a congress of all the na- tions. Most conspicuous of all was the beard's motto, “The World for Christ,” done in green letters on & fleld of red, which occupled & place just above the choir enclosure, in which sat tne officers and most of the forelgn delegates. Above this was a line of silk standards, colors of the nations represented. Between the windows and in every coign of vantage flags were draped. There was the elephant of Siam the star and crescent of Turkey, the pea cock of Burmah, the interlaced comets of Corea, the solid acarlet of Morocco, the £0ld, white, red and blue bars of the Orange Free State's ensign, the khedive's three crescents and three stars, the green stripes, cross and crown of the Grecian merchant flag and the Persian lion and eword on a fleld of white. All these spoke eloquently of the work in hand, the spreading of the goepel in all lands. Opening of Program. The program opened at $:30 with an ex- ecutive session, at which Mrs. E. S. Wil- llams of Minnesota presided. It was de- Yoted largely to a discussion of ways, means and methods of work. Questions were asked and answered and experiences ex- cbanged. At 9:30 the delegates assembled in the large auditorium and the convention proper bogan. Mrs. N. W. Campbell presided. A hymn wi sung, “Pralse the Lord, Ye Heavens Adore Him,” after which there was a scripture lesson and prayer. The addrese of welcome was delivered by Mrs. P. L. Perine of Nebraska. She sald n part: “It 18 with thankfulness and joy that we are permitted to welcome our beloved Board of the Northwest to our city, our neighbor's church and our homes. We have long waited for this time, and now we are to enjoy the blessed fruition of our hopes. We feel that the coming of the board will bring a blessing to our city and to each of ue as individuals. We pray that many a new consecration will be made while you are with us. We look for faces that have #0 long {lluminated these meetings and we see them not; but a sweet and heavenly Teverence steals over us and we seem to hear their voices in unison with ours as ‘we «ing the songs, and can almost see thelr faces bending over us among the ‘cloud of witnesses. Response to Welco The response was by Mrs. J. C. McClin- tock of Towa, who sald in part: “We, the delegates and friends attending thls meet- ing, thank you for your cordial and loving words of welcome and do not conceal the Tact that we are glad to visit your eity, to et you personally and to share your sweet hosplitality. All about us we see your careful and thoughtful preparations for our pleasure and comfort and we as- sure you that we deeply appreclate your labor of love in our Master's name. ““With the returm of spring we look forward to the privilege of gathering to- gether our missionary family from the fourteen middle and western states in an annual assembly. This means not only the hearing of reports, the election of off- cers and transaction of business pertain- ing to the ca of forelgn missions, but something better. It means the bearing of all our needs to the feet of Jesus, walt- ing upon Him in concerted prayer, and the heart-to-heart conferences with the lead- ing workers In all our synods, Presby- teries and auxillaries. We are glad you invited us to meet in Omaha this year and aré glad to come when Dame Nature is putting on her new dress of green. For she, being arrayed in her freshness and beauty, will flll us with new courage and 3 h &¥ r! | z ; ¥ i I i i i z'g El I b ¥ I il i | i i i il g s i (] i | il £ i i Fi . in the work the We ask this ome privilege, of taking away with us from this meeting, not only a handful (in our notebooks), but a heart- ful of forget-me-nots, whose every little petal will bring to our minds the lessons we have here learned, the words that have beeni spoken in his name and the good reso- lutions made, that these may be as good seeds, fallen into good and honest hearts which will bring forth fruit, some thirty, some sixty and some an hundredfold.” The chalr announced the following com- mittees Place of Meeting—Meadames H Ilinois; C.* P.

MeAfee. Haupt, Lacy, Forelgn Secretaries’ Repor The forelgn secretaries’ report was the most important documeat on the forenoon program. It had been prepared by Mre. E. G. Shumway, but Mrs. Shumway being unable to attend, the report was read by Miss Elizabeth Stewart. Here are some excerpts from it: Not only alphabetically, but historically, Africa must claim first mention In a re- port of Christian missions. Burely the first omnipotent command and fulfiilment the Christlan era was to take the child_into Egypt, thus making it a refuge instead of a place of bond- From our own little band of workers comes the cry, “Send help. Standard bearers have fallen.” A joyous welcome awalts Mr. and Mra. Knaver. At the Batanga school, where four tribes are represented, Mrs. Menkel has been the brave support throughout the year, taking eneral supervision, teaemsng classes in German and Bulu,” leading -the singing. counseling, vielting, helping and attending to new responsibilities in her own home. Her oldest scholar, the faithful Ndanga, has been promoted as assistant at Efulen, which hopes soon to rely upon native téachers and converts. From Syria comes this word: The past year in Syria_has been one of . The ‘‘victory of "' seems the triumphant note, sound- ing clear. above the rumbling of ‘political interfererice and the prejudice of false religions. Early this year Miss Hunting tells of a class formed in the church to work and study and pray for a revival. In school another class studied "How to win souls,” and how to glve wise answers to those who would surely come asking the way of life. Rewarding their faith, pupils came flocking to the school—even from re- mote villages—until there was not room enough to celve them, Tultlon was pald in unprecedented measure, nearly as much in_a single term as in a year before Broader work {s undertaken. Tripoll presbytery has established a new school on a firm basis. Plasters are generously #set aside for another out station. Yearly subscriptions come in with joy of giving. the Dense clouds of error are llluminated wit rays of light, as of the breaking day. From China and Hainan. From Central and Southern China and Hainan comes the following There {s almost universal testimony that the most apparent effects of the troubles of 190 are greater friendliness on the part of the natives and increasing opportunities for work. The thirty-second annual mis- sion, held in Bhanghal last September, was the ‘largest ever held in the history of the mission. It is described as wonderful in the delightful spirit of Chriatian love. The message from the island of Hainan gives much evidence of the spirit's power, one boy from school selling 500 coples of the gospel in a short time. Mrs. M writes: “When I think of my bo to go home to them, but when r heathen here, I realize how im t is" Miss Schaeffer adds: “A little glimmer of the real object of our coming to Hainan seems gradually dawning upon the native Worthy of Consideration. An editor's opinion is always worthy of consideration, for he is accustomed to giv- ing & matter due consideration before ex- pressing his ideas of it. David R. Forbes, editor of the Sun, Quarryville, Pa., says “The mame Chamberlain is synonymous with everything that is good. Chamber- lain’s Cough Remedy I can particularly endorse, having used it myself quite fi quently with the best results, when bothered with a cold.” RAISE CROPS Thoro IN STREETS fares ed, However, Are Those Not Yet Brought to Grade, Street Commissioner J. B. Hummel fs having a busy time with suburban garden- ers and agriculturists who have prepared to grow potatoes, onlons and even corn in the streets of Omaha. This fsn't as bad a commentary on the traffic of the city as at first appears, for the streets in question are some in the remote suburbs that have been dedicated to the city, but not yet brought to grade. Last July the council authorized the Board of Public Works to clear West Martha street of all obstructione, but when the oity engineer and the street commis- sloner reached there on a ‘tour of inspection they found an enterprising Swede had plowed the ground and had corn standing three feet tall all the way from Thirty- second to Fortleth. They hadnm't the heart to spoil the crop for him and let it go, but when the street commissioner found him beginning the same thing this spring e served notice that if & crop was started there the city would send out & team and plow it up. Similar offenses are reported from Hitch- cock’s addition aleng Thirty-sixth street, north of Ohlo, and from the tract south of Center street and west of Forty-second, and from the extreme of Thirty-fourth avenue. Commissioner Hummel {s after them all, for he doesn’t propose that the city shall be put to the trouble of ejecting any more of those enterprising individuals who use the streets without authority for ten years and then claim the ground by adverse posses- . i ———— Indigestion 1s the direct cause of disea that kills thousands of persons annually.

Today these men are sorry they accomplished the | feat, for it threatens to deprive them ot their means of livelihood. Heroes in the eyes of the world, Conductor Burns, En-| gineer O'Connell and Fireman McLean are scapegraces in reality, for they are now under the extreme displeasure of thelr superiors, and the tenure of their positions depend solely upon their refraining in the | future from all eprints such as the one they made a few weeks ago General Superintendent T. E. Calvert of | the Burlington Nebraska lines was as much interested in the run as any one, but it did not please him. There has been a good deal of this work going on with No. 6 for some time, and this 14.5 miles at 98.5| miles au hour was the last straw. Mr.| Calvert notified the trainmen and engine- men concerned that they were on proba- tion and could not hold their jobs after another offense, Mr. Calvert's position is that he wishes trains run for safety, not for sho 1t bas become a common thing for No. 6 to be jerked along the western division Attractive Bargains for Thursday IN THE CLOAK AND MILLINERY SECTION Waists of high grade Y in percales elaborately trimmed with embrofdery and insertion we will place them on eale $1.00 Having purchased a sample line worth 6%¢, $1.25 and $1.50, white lawns, in Gibson effect and military effect Shirt $7.50 A special sale of high grade silk waists sole, old rose, light blue, pink on main floor ..

This is because of two reasons, one because the Denver & Rlo| Grande and other connections from the | west at Denver are often late, brings No. 6 out of there behind time. | Again, the schedule from Denver to Chi- | cago requires close to fifty miles an hour anyway, 8o when only small wmounts of time are made means a terrific pace So frowns meet this trfo of whirlwind railroaders at their operating department published in the big dallles around country as men of the hour. the Announcements of the Theaters. Sunday afternoon, April 27, the Grace Hayward company commences a week's en- gagement at Boyd's theater, presenting “Slaves of Russia.” Tuesday night the bill is changed to “Peaceful Valley.” Again on Friday night the bill will be changed to “‘Carmen,” which will also be the bill for the Saturday matinee. They will then close their engagement here with a Saturday and Sunday night and Sunday matinee per- formance of “Reaping the Whiriwind. These blils have been played by this com- pany all season and Mr. Ferris carries a carload of scenery for their production, so that every bill presented will be staged and mounted correctly in every partlc- ular. Bvery night and at the matinees speclalty people will be introduced be- tween each act, making a continuous per- formance.
