for the patrol wagon and Miss Cham

the hospital the patient seemed to be
conscious but had lost the power of
speech. While the stroke is serious it is
probable that Miss Chamberlain will re-

Miss Chamberlain is member of one
of the old missionary families and has
lived in Honolulu all her life. She at

year she returned to her Alma Mater to
attend the fftieth anniversary of her

sionary work all her life and has been
prominent worker on the Woman's
Board.
LATER--At midnight Miss Cham
berlain's condition was unchanged. She
was resting quietly. Inquiry at the sani-
tarium resulted in the information that
the doctor had made no definite state
