FIRST MEETING HELD
Great Missionaries Tell of
Their Work in China.
Dr, and Mrs Taylor Made Addresses of Won
derful Power Las*
Night-
Dr. and Mrs. F. Howard Taylor won
the he*arts of the congregation, which
nut them last night. Both are people of
strong personalityt and both are per
meated by a sense of the greatness o f
their mission. *
I»r. Taylor’s voice is one that catches.
It is not a brogue, but there is a sof’
swinging cadence, almost a blur, in it
that holds you, as you look up into his
smiling face.
Mrs. Taylor is a brunette of a striking
type, while her husband is a blonde.
Her face is good to look upon, and as she
talks r eyes grow luminous and the
deep hearted intenseness of the woman
shows in countenance and voice. She is
eloquent, and the striking periods in
her speech are intensified by the beauti
ful sound of her voice like the tinkle of
far away bells. She is a mistress in the
art of pathetic word paintings.
A large and appreciative audience as
sembled last night at the Edentou Street
Methodist church to hear the renowned
Missionaries, Dr. and Mrs. Howard Tay
lor, of the China Inland Mission, who
are now visiting seventeen of the most
important cities in the South.
After an excellent song by the fine
choir of the church, Rev. Dr. Eugepe
Daniel offered a prayer of great sweet
ness. This was followed by a short talk
from Rev. J- E. McCulloch concerning
some valuable books and papers bearing
upon the mission work, some of those
being the work of Dr. Taylor.
Dr- Taylor prefaced his address by
speaking enthusiastically of the charm
ing hospitality of the South, saying that
ho and Mrs. Taylor felt as their visits
were drawing to a # close that the best
had been reserved for the last.
“And now,” said Dr. Taylor, ”1 want
to remind you of the great commission
which Christ gave his disciples when he
was leaving them, the command to evan
gelize the world. If we don’t believe in
Foreign Missions we are disloyal to
Christ. We are to be His witnesses at
homo, in our own country and then to
the uttermost parts of the earth. We
cannot all go to foreign lands, but we
can all have some part in fulfilling this
great commission.
“There is a wonderful power in prayer.
We can pray. We don’t take collections
in tne China Inland Mission, but we do
ask for your prayers.
“And now I want you to come with me
in thought to China. That great ancient
empire as you know is the largest coun
try in the world. Great as the country
is the people are still greater, being one
quarter of the whole population of the
world, and whatever we may think of
that type, the Creator must have thought
a good deal of it, as He has so many of
them- Is this fact without significance?
“The Chinese are a people of grit,
character and business enterprise. I
don’t wondef that nations are afraid of
them. When China begins to move she
will move the world. May God grant it
may be Christian China
“l want to tell you what kind of Chris
tians these people make. Everyone
knows about their heroism during the
Roxer troubles. In the beginning of
these persecutions some Boxer soldiers
went to the house of a Chinese Chris
tian and found only the old grandmother
there. They showed her the idol they
had brought and said: “Hurry up, old
lady, and worship this idol. We’ve come
to tell you that you've got to give up
this foreign devil reiigian and go back
to the faith of your ancestors. If you
don't burn this incense pretty quick
we’ll chop your hands off. ,
“The old lady was terribly frightened
but she faced those soldiers and
“You may chop my hands off or you may
chop my head off, but you can’t make me
deny the Lord Jesus Christ who died
for me.”
MRS. TAYLOR S MESSAGE.
Mrs. Taylor, who spoke next, said:
“Dear friends: There are many forms
of missionary work, but the only one
that counts is witness about the living
Christ. That is what China needs and
that is what we go there to do.
“We go into the far interior of that
great country, where people have never
heard of Christ- As soon as we reach
Shanghai we put on the native Chinese
dress, which is necessary for work in
the interior as the people have a very
strong feeling against anything foreign,
and then we go inland by carts, or mule
litters or wheel barrows, two, three,
four, eight months journey from the
coast. All along the way we meet with
crowds of people and have plenty of op
portunity of witnessing for the living
Christ.
“When we were married we took our
wedding journey on a double wheel-bar
row for three months right through the
heart of China. I remember on that
journey coming to a little town called
Gogo, and there found a company of in
telligent, interesting women who
crowded around to hear what we
had to say. I began to tell them about
the gospel. “What,” they said, “as new
leligion! We’re all religious women here,
we want to hear about it.” “I told them
about the God who loves U 3 and who can
forgive our sins and they listened so
eagerly and then the time came for us
to go, and the Barrow Mon kept calling
me “What ” they said, “you’re not going.’
\Y hy we’ve never heard these things be
fore and we want to bear more. You
can’t be going away!”
What opportunities to preach the gos
pel and how ready the people are to re
ceive it.
“My husband and I were the fust to
live and tell of Jesus in two great cities
in the province of Honan, and we had
many openings to the hearts of the peo
ple through the medical work. They are
exceedingly grateful for any help given
them in this line.
Oh, h>»w they need Christ. These peo
ple all have a sense of sin, they all be-
L:ve that sin will be punished. Thev
Know nothing about love. When they
hear about the love of Christ they know

it is what they have wanted all their
lives. Many of them become true and
tamest Christians the first time they
ever hear the gospel. And there is no
other name given under heaven among
men whereby we must be saved.
Mrs. Taylor is the daughter of H. Grat
tan Guinness, of London, whose mis
sionary training college has sent out more
than 100 missionaries to all parts of the
world. She inherits her father’s re
markable gift as a speaker and has a
most beautiful voice.
Dr. Taylor is the son of Rev. Hudson
Taylor, the founder of the China Inland
Mission. He is an able and talented
physician as well as an eloquent.
This afternoon at 2 o'clock Mrs. Tay
lor will address a meeting for women in
the First Presbyterian church and at
night, 7.30, both Dr. and Mrs. Taylor will
speak in the First Baptist church.
No one should miss the charm of these
meetings. They are grand and inspiring,
and will continue in the various churches
thinugh Monday night.

PRINCE HENRY COMES FEB. 22ND
He Will Sail For Qeraany on March the
Bth. '
(By the Associated Press.)
Washington, Jan. 15.—Dr. VonHolleben,
the German ambassador at Washington,
today received a cablegram from Berlin
giving the dates of arrival and departure
of Prince Henry and a list of the party
who will accompany him io the United
Stales. Prince Henry will arrive on the
Krou Priuz Wilhelm, February 22, and
will sail for Germany on the Hamburg-
American Liner Columbia, March 8. He
will be accompanied by Hofmarschall
Vice Admiral VonSeckendorff, and two
aides de camp. Lieutenant Commanders
Schmid VonSehwind and VonEgidy. His
chief physician will be Dr. Reich.
Heir VonTirpitz, the German Secre
tary of State for tlie navy, with his aide
de-camp, Lieutenant Commander Von-
Trotha. will also accompany the party.
Emperor William will send his Adjutant
General VonPlessen; Captain of the Napy
Von.Viueller and VonGrumme, aide-de
camp to the Emperor.
Secretary Long today cajlled Rear
ncir&l Robloy D. Evens into consultation
respecting the coming visit to the Uni
ted States of Prince Henry, of Germany.
The Rear Admiral has not yet been
given written orders detailing him to act
as the representative of the navy at the
reception, hut that matter has been
agreed upon and Secretary Long today
charged Admiral Evans with the prepara
tion of a naval program for the recep
tion. In view of the number of distin
guished officers who are now reported to
be about to accompany the Prince on his
visit, it is becoming evident that Admiral
Evans will require the assistance of a
number of junior officers, and these will
be detailed as occasion requires.
So far the State Department is not
officially advised of the approaching visit
of the Prince, ner.ee it has done nothing
toward arranging a program for his re
ception and entertainment.
It is assumed ;.t the War Department,
though orders have not yet been issued,
that Major General Brooke as the eom
mander-in-chief of the Department of the
East, will represent the United States
Army in the reception.

Cunning Hotel Thieves Captured.
(By the Associated Press.)
New Orleans, Jan. 15. —George I. Kline,
of St. Louis, and Robert L. West, of Cin
cinnati, were arrested across the river
this morning charged with robbing the
trunk of T. E. Manners, of Chicago, of
about $2.500 of jewelry. They are al
leged to have represented .themselves
last night as Manners and another guest
at the St. Charles, paid the bills and
left with the baggage. They crossed
the river in a skiff and were caught be
fore the train came, on which they ex
pected to leave, through the watchful
ness of a newsboy who had read the story
in the newspapers.
Later in the day Manners went over
to identify the property, and Kline ac
cused him of being a thief under an
alias. As the whole affair had a sus
picious appearance, Manners was also ar
rested. The police believe he may be
Kerns, the New York jewelry thief, and
Chief of Detectives Titus, of New York,
sent a telegram here which strengthens
the idea. Mannners claims that he is
with his father in the pawnbrokerage
business at Chicago and that the jewelry
taken was unredeemed pledges he was
trying to dispose of.
Fifty diamond pins, a gold watch, a dia
mond brooch and some pearls are in the
lot.
Kline makes the direct charge that
Manners is Kern. The police say de
scriptions fit exactly, except that the man
here has no scar on his cheek.
Fear British Warship Condor is Lost.
(By the Associated Press.)
Victoria, B. C., Jan. 15. —Hope for the
safety of the British warship Condor
is all but abandoned. Naval men here are
convinced she went to the bottom during
the recent typhoon, while on her way from
here*to Honolulu. The Admiralty officials
will dispatch the Phaeton Saturday in j
search of her.
The Condor was thirty-one days from |
here for Honolulu on January 3, the date
of the last mail, and left here Decern- |
ber 2, on the evening of the storm in '
which the collier Mattewan was lost, j
She may be sailing to the islands, how- (
over, as warships often do, and with
scant canvas, and without her propeller
work she would be delayed. The mail
due at San Francisco on Saturday from
the islands is anxiously awaited.

THE PHILIPPINE TARIFF BILL
The Senate Committee Considers the Measure-
Adjourns Without Reporting It.
(By the Associated Press.)
Washington, Jan. 16. —The Senate Com
mittee on the Philippine Islands today
had under consideration the House Phil
ippine ariff Bill, but upon the request of
the Democratic members for more time,
adjourned until next Monday without re-*
porting the bill.
All the amendments suggested by the
Republican members were adopted. The
important of these amendments reduced
to the extent of 25 pe cent the rate of
duty collected upon Philippine articles
coming into the United States and also
provides for a further reduction equiva
lent to the export duty charged on such
articles when shipped from the Philip
pines. The 25 per cent reduction is ac
complished by providing for the pay
ment of 75 per cent of the duty required
by the Dingley ariff Act. The provision
concerning the export duty is as fol
lows:
“The tates of duty which are required
hereby to be levied, collected and paid
upon products of the Philippine archipel
ago coming into the United States shall
be less any duty or taxes levied, col
lected and paid therein upon the expor
tation thereof the Philippine archipelago
as provided by the act of the United
States Commission under such rules and
regulation? as the Secretary of the
Treasury may prescribe.’’
“Another amendment permits the em
ployment of foreign vessels in the inter
island traffic as well as in the traffic
between the United States and the is
lands. Still another amendment strikes
out the House provision authorizing she
w ithholding of the cost of collecting Phil
ippine taxes and duties, thus requiring
the gross amount instead of the net
amount to he deposited in the special
fund.
After the committee adjourned tfie
Democratic members of it held a con
ference ar.d decided to present a minority
report to the Senate recommending that
so long as the Philippine Islands remain i
a part of the territory of the United |
States free trade he permitted between .
the islanders and this country and ur
ging that the islands shall be put upon (
an independent footing at as early date ]
as possible, when they will suggest that j
the full Dingley rates be charged on
Philippines imports.
he Democrats are urging the commit-
tee to grant hearings on the bill. /
Boralma Matched to Race.
New York, Jan. 15.—Two checks for
$5,000 each were received here late this
afternoon from Thomas W. Lawson, of
Boston, to close the negotiations over
the talked-of race between his trotter
Boralma and E. E. Smathers’ horse Lord
Derby and The Abbott," owned by John
J. Scannell, formerly fire commissioner.
This is the outcome of Mr. Lawson’s
original challenge to track Boralma,
2:07, against any horse in the world.
When this challenge was made known
Messrs. Smathers and Scannell posted
forfeits and Mr. Lawson was advised of
that fact.
The arrangements for the two matches
now’ stand as follows:
The Boralma-Lord Derby race and the
Boralma-Abbott race will be trotted
some time between July 15th and Septem
ber Ist, 1902, and will be for $20,000 a
side. The club which offers the largest
stake will get the event, and several
matches will be decided in favor of the
winner of the best three out of five heats
in each case. The remainder of the side
stakes is to be posted as follows: $5,000
on signing of articles; $5,000 on the first
of July, and the final $5,000 on the night
before the race.

postoffice frauds was resumed here to

Rathbone, bought a uniform for his
coachman from the postal funds. The
Government has disallowed these ac
counts, charging them against Rathbone.
