PR | PARIS, Oct. 11.—A series of fetes in| connection with the closing days of the exposition was openea this afternoon with a parade and ballet on the river Seine, the front of the exposition. The chief feature of the display was the ballet from “Michael Strogoff,” numbering 750 dancers, on a steamer lifty yvards long, | arranged as a stage and moored at the western end of the exposition. Decorated barges with dancers ana others in pictur- esque operatic costumes were also towed up and down the river within the exposi- tion grounds. One of the objects of these fetes is to et rid of the cnormous surplus of tickets y charging several tickets for one ad- mission. + The exposition is now within a month of closing, and out of 65,000,000 tickets issued 15,000,000 are still unsold. A night fete will be given Monday. There | | will be a great vintage fete Tuesday. This i8_expected to be particularly attractive. M.

GEORGETOWN, Ky., Oct. 11.—The re- ports from Henry Youtsey's sickroom to- night are not encouraging. The only change perceptible is that his stupor is not quite so heavy. Once or twice to-day he has lifted his hands an inch or two and in a weak voice repeated: ‘‘There's no blood on my hands.”” His physiclans fear brain fever. which would now almost surely prove fatal.

PLINNING TO RENEW THEIR WORK IN CHINA Increased Attendance at the Board of Foreign Missions. au- | {a new world, with a glorious de | with the personal effects of mis | { Kalgan, Paoting and Linching; undq and then the number given is subtracted from | | virtual ST. LOUIS, Oct. 11.—The attendance at | the ninety-first meeting of the Board of | Commissioners for Foreign Mssions, | which is holding a three days’ session in Pilgrim Congregational Church, was con- siderably increased to-day Great inter- est was shown to-day in the discussion of the board’s work in China. Rev. Judson | Smith, foreign secretary of the Amer-| ican board, read an Interesting paper on | “China, the Situation and Outifok.” He | sald in part: “The doom. of the dynasty and of tie anti-foreign policy it embodies is pro- nounced; no diplomacy, no force of ar can save them; the powers, even if t should wish to prolong thetr life, will fight against an frresistible fate. The future will reveal a new China and that will be fore it. The m on property has been destroyed at Tungchow, P edly everything In Sha mission rebuilt in Tien E burned; chapels by the score in our sta tions have been destroyed. The total | at a low estimate must amount to h dreds of thousands of dollars. For ] loss of missionary life there is no money value. For the wholesale siaughter of the native Christians there is also nc compensation. The awful fact that cor fronts us is the death by violence of thir- teen of our missionaries, with five chil- dren, involving the extinction of the | Shansi mission. “I speak for Protestant missionaries, and particularly for those of our own board, when I say that the missionaries | are not the cause of this outbreak. They are in China with China’s knowledge ana | consent, enjoying plainly stipu- lated treaty rights. Cnina has made no omplaint of them. She has not asked for a revision of treaties In order that ske might be freed from their presence. | ‘‘But missionaries, we are told, have no | business in China, forcing a foreign and | hateful religlon upon (ne people; their presence and work naturaliy arouse re- | sentment and hatred. This charge strikes | back to one who brought a aeavenly glory | to the earth which repald him with a | cross and a crown of thorns and charged him with folly and seems to cover witj,| shame the brightest pages of Christian | history, the noblest names upon the Fou of the ‘ages. What is now to be done Are our missions to be closed up and the work of evangelizing Cnina abandoned Not unless we have decided to give up all | missionary effort. For much as has been destroyed there Is much more that re- mains. Our two missions in the south are | essentiaily intact. And in the north there | are still native Christians who have heid | their faith, who are now in hiding, but | with peace will come forth to form the nucleus of the new churches and Chris- | tian community. The Bible and Christiaa | literature and text beoks remaln. | “‘Unless all signs fail this cay of blood- shed and loss is sure {0 be followed by an immense enlargement of missionary | opportunity in China.” | Dr. Smith’s paper was follow:d by a general discussion of the subject by mis- sfonaries and officers of the board.

President Eaton of Beloit College made | an eloquent address. in the course of | which he said the disaster to Christian missions in China opened up new hope for the work there. After the ruin, he said, comes the rebuilding and the board has the materials for the work in the Chinese themselves. Rev. Henry A. Stimson. D.D., of New York, recording secretary of the American board, read a letter from Rev. Henry Blodgett, the first American missionary in North China and founder of the Pekinz mission. Dr. Blodgett recounted the sui- ferings of missionaries from the recenl persecutions in China and said: “This will be an unexampled meeting of the history of the board. The question will come, who will follow in their train?" Dr. Stimson declared they were not there for vengeance nor to say anything in regard to the policy of the Government in China. “The only question that concerns us,” Dr. Stimson said, “is Dr. Blodgett's q tion, “Who will follow in their train? Dr. Stimson added: “If can be a source of joy to no Chris- tian to be told of the mistakes of Cath- olic missionaries in their poiicy in China. In this city, which is the head of the largest Jesuit m\g:nm in the world, save only that of Orleahs. we are glad to rc- member that it is due to the Jesuits alonc that there is any respect for Christianity in the Philippine Islands and that afte: the Nestorians, the Roman Catholic mis sionaries opened the earliest missions i China and kept Christianity alive through the middle ages.

At the afternoon session an hour's time was given up to an open parliament on missions. In the evening phenomenal interest was given to the proeceedings by the introduc tion of Peter Cushman Jones of Honolui who brought the g ngs from the H: walian Evangelical Assoclation and ther by connected the current history of Ha- wall with the history of the American board in the Hawaiian Islands since Octo- ber 23, 1S19. when seventeen persons, two of them ordained, sailed from Boston in the brig Thaddeus to begin a mission there.
