The existence of d double code of morality in society is its curse; and magnflcenily taught by Miss Hampton, and make man realize that the law of purity was as essential to nlm as to woman, We should see a marked improvement in our so-called upper classes The play is full of beau- tiful little bits of satire, and my wife and ! thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it. AS long as the stage holds such companies as yours and sucn plays as Sowing the Wind it will deserve the support of every good man and woman. With the same fine cast that was here last season, under the management of Mir. Charles Frohman, Sowing the Wind" returns to the Hyperion theater this and tomorrow evenings, with Sat | urday matinee.

And still they come. The capacity of the house has been taxed to it's utmost every evening this week, and on two evenings the doors had to be closed for a time, the crowds were so great. The show is full of sensationalism from start to finish, and during the few numbers when the spectators are not wondering at the startling acts they are laughing at the funny ones. Miss Adele Purvis Onri, the sensational performer on the revolving globe, has caught every one with her marvellous act, and the other sensational acts that make up the cir GUS part of the bill are equally attrac- tive. Next week is likely to prove an- other record breaker in point of at tendance, when Wilson's grand aerial ballet is to be the principal attraction. This ballet, which was the chief feature of the original production of "The Brow nies' during it's New York run, is now to be presented for the first time at pop ular prices, with all the brilliant access sories of sage mechanism and electric illumination that distinguished it's orig inal production.

He said that the recent indignities to American missionaries were largely due to the lack of respect which the Turkish government had for the United States. The next speaker was the Rev. J. F. Clark, D. D., who has recently visited Turkey to study the condition of Amer ican missions.
 The Rev. Chauncey Goodrich, D. D., who has spent some thirty years in mission work in China, followed. A committee representing the Method ist church then entered. Bishop An drews was with them. He made an address, saying the Methodist church was with the board in its work and stated that the church had given last year s1 ,00O,0 900 to foreign missions Res ,olutions of thanks were voted to Bishop l Andrews and the Methodist church. The Rev. Dr. Palmer introduced a 1 long resolution calling'on the churches | to increase their subscriptions and te cooperate more earnestly with the board. It concluded by asking that a committee of nine be appointed to col. 1 lect money to defray the debts of the board, the money promised to be paya- l ble on March 1, and conditioned on the ! raising of $115,0OO altogether. If this 1 sum be thus raised the resolution said | a friend Of the board, whose name was withheld, had agreed to give it $25,000 l to be applied on it's debts.

LOOKS LIKE A TRICK.
How Young Man Got $3.50 Fro IN About
80 Portland Churches and Then Disap,
peared.

Last fall young man by the name of
Jordan came to Portland and started an
enterprise which he called the publica-
tion of a church directory of Portland.
His idea was to publish small book
which should contain outs of all the
churches and their pastors and the neces-
sary facts about them, together with in
tervening pages of advertising. He repre-
sented t6 the clergymen of the oity that
he would sell these directories to the
churches for Is cents each and that they
could sell them at an advance price at
their church fairs. The churches all went
into 1t. The clergy men Of Portland to
the number of about &c. paid Jordan 49, so
for half tone outs of themselves and the
churches paid him $5 for half tones of
the church ediflces. Jordan had. these
outs made at the Lakeside Press and
then disappeared with the money which
amounted to about 1856. Jordan told
the olergymen that the cuts were their
property, but the Lakeside Press holds
them as security, since Jordan did not
pay for them.
He did not sec ure the necessary adver-
tising and the enterprise was failure.
This may account for his disappearance,
or of course. he may have intended to de-
fraud in the.flrst place 1t is stated that
this same man, who came to Portland
from Lewiston, worked Bangor and Lew
iston churches in the same smooth man.
