O.. teacher of the largest men's bible class- in the world in an address at the missionary rally held Monday noon at the First Christian church. "Very soon China is going to order the people of every country but the United States out of the land and all foreigners will be barred. But they will not bar Americans because of the friendship and courtesy shown China on the Boxer indemnity proposition." "The Need of the Countless Millions Across the Sea," was the subject of Mr. Detail's address in which he dwelt upon the work that should be done for the orientals. He has just returned from a trip around the world. Mr. Doan has gained his reputation because of his bible classes, he having given up a prosperous business to devote his time to the work. MINISTERS OF CITY HEAR REV. J. P. HALE "Our Business' is Subject of Talk. Thank Papers For Their Aid. Re. John P. Hale of Lafayette, state superintendent of Presbyterian missions, who is conducting the revival meetings at Trinity Presbyterian church, spoke on "Our Business" in which he pointed out thj various conceptions of Christianity, at the Ministerial association meeting at the Y. M. C. A. Monday morning. A short talk was given by Miss Florence Wattles, who is in the city to organize the equal suffrage movement. "Christ's conception was that the entire universe was a kingdom," said Rev. Hale. "He showed this when he established the Lord's prayer, "Thy kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven.' Paul's conception was an organized church with Its prophets and apostles. The conception of the mediaeval church was the sacerdotal idea, in which all authority was vested in the priests. "During the reformation Martin Luther's conception was that authority should be vested in the Bible rather than the priest. The Wesleyan movement 0 brought out the idea of individual salvation for eternity. "Our business today is to save men. for time as well as eternity. We must save their bodies as well as their souls. We must help them in their work and in their social life." Miss Wattles' talk was for the purpose of learning through the ministers if there were any church organizations interested in the suffrage movement. A resolution was adopted instructing the secretary. Rev. W. H. Freshley, to write to the newspapers, thanking them for their work in the revival campaign. Col. John Dean of the Xew York training school of the Salvation Army will speak tit the meeting next week. TO ORGANIZE SOCIETY Humane Body Will Take Cp Work Anions Children.

Fire followed the attack, but it I was controlled by the firemen be-! fore it could spread to any great extent. Afterwards the firemen worked with the police and soldiers in searching the ruins for dead. Some of the corpses were so badly mangled that identification was impossible. Fifteen hours after the attack th? firemen who were tearing their way into a mass of wreckage heard a faint wailing. Redoubling their efforts they soc'ii came upon an aged workman named Petitjean. Part of his neck and face had been blown away by an explosion and he was so weak with loss of blobd that he could only gjsp: "Save my wife and daughter, don't mind me." Then he died before he could utter another word. Of those killed 15 were women, 13 were men and four were children. Two more men died from shock, making a total of 24. Of the woundeel 14 were women. 11 were men and four were children. The municipal council has decided to bury all the victims at the expense of the city and to accord them full military honors.

Afterward it was charged that the city officials had acted ineffectively, waiting too long to sound the alarm to the people. When the pursuit began one French aeroplane continued the chase for 50 minutes, the aviator pumping lead from a rapid fire gun until all his ammunition was exhausted.
