DUNMORE DOINGS
MISS PA1MEB TELLS OF HER
EXPERIENCES.
She Helated the Graphic Story of Her
Forty-Day Trip to the Coast of
China During the Iteccnt Outbreak
Yesterday Afternoon at tho Homo
of Mm. W. D. Decker Revival
Seivlces Ilev. W. B. Dunett at the
M. E. Church Other News and
Personal Notes.
At tho nioetliitr of the Ladies Mis
sionary society of the Vresbyterlnn
church, held yesteidav at Mrs. W. D.
Deckel's, 'Miss Hose Palmer, who has
lately returned from chlnu, gave thoro
present an Insight into some of the
h mowing experiences through which
the jmrtv of which she war a member
were called upon to endure during their
Journey coast-waid, lasting about foity
days.
During mnny of these long and weary
dis they were Jolted over the country
In sptlngles", coveied calls, without
any oppottunlty of observing what
tulUit be ttanspliingaiound them. This
means of tiuiispoitatlon was furnished
by the Chinese government at tho enrn
est behest of the missionaries, who
contended that they weie leaving In
puisuame of their order and that con
veyances must be furnished
At the beginning of the Journey they
were turnlahed with a guard of Chi
nese soldiers, but In a very short time
they desetted and Joined the Boxeis.
The pai ty w as made up of two men
und twelve women and children, Mr. t
C. II. iDrejer, of Dunmoie, being the
active head of the partv, representing
them In many conferences with thu
Bor element as they made their way
through the hostile country.
I'our carts weie used In convening
them and their luggage, the lntter
being viy much lessened as the Jour
ney piogresHod. Each new band that
they chanced to meet made It their
especial business to sou over all their
possessions and help themselves to
whatever they wished.
In some cases even the clothes they
woio were demanded and, of course,
bonded over as pleasantly as circum
stances would peimlt. The latter end
of the Journey was made In a vehicle
much like our wheelbairow, one man
pulling nnd another pushing It. Miss
Palmer has no regrets for her experi
ences and thinks the Chinese lnve
many good polnta about them, not
withstanding their recent teitlble icc
oi d.
She says a Chinaman who Is once
converted and becomes a filend of tho
missionary Is neatly alwas tuio In
Ms filendshlp.
Revival Services.
The tevlval seivlces at the Tilpp
Avenue Christian chinch were ver.v
well nttcndrd last night nnd listened
vciy attentively to an excellent ad
dles by tho evangelist, Itev Mr. Cobb,
on "The Loss of Oppoitunltles." He
said: "There comes a time In every
min's life when he looks back and sees
wheiu he wishes ho had mended his
way. Hut there never comes a time
when we i egret accepting Christ and
shaping our lives after Him. 5ten nev
er regiet doing wbnt Is light: only
what Is wrong."
The topic for this evening Is "Clod
Commands Hepent."
At the Jrlethodlst Episcopal Chuieh.
Hev. W. A. Dunett. the Canadian
evangelist, preached to a large audi
ence In the Dunmoro Methodist Episco

effect "Saved by Giace." The after
noon meeting jeslerday was quite

ure the indefinable quality that con
stitutes a star, whether man or wo
man Perhaps she Is more richly en
dow cd In this gift than any woman
now on the American stage. Fev
women with as many limitations ua
she must feel have over attained to
such unquestioned popularity. She
lacks beauty of face and of figure.
Her bcope of Interpretation is confined
within the triangle of) dellcato humor,
charm and pathos. With these three
qualities, developed and driven by toll
almost religious In Its constancy, she
has conquered the field. Maude Adams
is ptobably one of the most envied
women in her profession; but no on
can justly think she has not earned
her success. She begnrf poor aaid un
known at an obscure theater west of
the Mississippi, when thai' region had
but one theater lor ten it has today.
After she had contrived to enter New
York some ears later the could get
only Insignificant pans. Many young
women of soaring ambition are doing:
the same lino In New York today.
Most of them will never do anything1
bettor. The salvation of Maudo
Adani3 was that she played such paitH
with the peculiar .Mamie Auumn -nlllcence.
Then hbe begnn to go
ahead and thus far she has not letio
graded. That she has been directed
by the foiemost manager of this de
cade Is purely consequential. Charles
1-rohman saw nn opportunity In tho
ability of Maude Adams, and he an
used It to his advantage, to hem and
to tho entertainment of the public.

Those who know him well do not
