ON THE TRAIL OF THE
AMERICAN MISSIONARY

Methodists have united their academies in
the John d. Wells Training School, and the
funds and teachers are supplied by both de-
nominations. Arrangements are in the
making for a union of hospital work, as in
Pyeng Yang. The Methodist and Presby-
terrain church papers have been made one.
and the Sunday school literature is also
issued Jointly. Union revival services are
held and union Bible classes. a union hymn
book is being compiled, and the big Metho-
dist publishing plant is in process of being a
joint concern.
Considerable attention is being paid to the
publication of tracts, papers and other re-
lgious literature. The Korean Religious
Tract Society, which is one of the union en-
terprises, is even getting out 4 set of edu-
catonal primers. The Korean common peo-
pie have not been readers; so to the mis-
sionaries has come the opportunity to
quicken a desire for reading in the nation
ture. There is little or no evil reading mat
ter to counterfeit; the field is open for the
missiona rieS, and they are occupying it.
The demand for the Scriptures has not
yet been met fully, since the Korean Chris
tians are devoted Bible students. The New
Testament has been put into the native
tongue. and a board of translation is at
work upon the Old Testament. This matter
of Bible translation, which is financed and
directed by the American and British and
Foreign Bible societies. is considered of far
reaching Importance, inaSmuch as it is done
for all the future. Owing to the lack of
native words to express many religious
terms new Christian vocabulary is practi-
cally created. 49,,

But how about the persons who We're not

We're the victims?
No doctrine of ,-ivine providence is worth
anything that does not cover any and all
events, the tragedies by land and the trag-
edies by sea- the earthquakes and the holo-

IL We believe what We say We believe, we
must hold that every one of these dark
happenings, and the sum total of the woe
of the world, are as much within the pur-
pose of an omnipotent and gracious power
as are the bright sunny days, the soft cush-
ions, the royal purple, the deep, blessed
drafts of the cup of bliss.
Now why do we believe all this? Partly
because of what We are able to see with
our own eyes, of the beneficent effects on
nations and individuals of events which
seem to us unfortunate and mysterious
Dare We imagine the effect of uninterrupted
prosperity and happiness from the cradle

Jews Are Establishing Themselves in
Ancient City.
'espondence of the Star

Special Correspondence of the Star.
JERUSALEM. January 20, 1907.
One of the most important enterprises
lately sprung into existence in Palestine
is the Viewers Company. The promoters
of this company are Russian Jews who
have been engaged in the weaving and
allied trades at the manufacturing towns
of Warsaw, Lode and Bialystock. Shares
to the amount Of about $4,000 have al
ready been subscribed, and preparations
are being made to begin work as soon
as the necessary plant and machinery are
imported.
The company intends to commence with
the manufacture of cotton fabrics. and
later on to extend 1t also to the making
of wooden goods and there is plenty OF
raw wool in the country. Cotton has a
large home market whereas wool depends
almost entirely on export. The offices Of
the company have been registered at Jaffa.
The administrative committee at Petach-
Tikwah has entered into an agreement with
a Jaffa engineering firm to lay water mains
and supply water in every house of the
colony. This viii be a great step toward
the Improvement OF it's sanitation. as well
as the development of It's horticulture. Over
a hundred Arab laborers are employed at
Petach-Tikwah gathering acacia blossoms,
which are sold to a perfumery manufac-
turer at jana.

held every Sunday afternoon on the Meth

AT a little dinner party in Seoul
CHANGED to be seated alongside of a charm
ingly dressed young American woman.
Apropos Of my tale of riding twelve hours
lutely unheated cars. she told how before
the railway was running she once started
| to come down from Pyeng Yang to Seoul
In Korean sampan filled with natives
There was only one room no sleeping ac-
commodations and no privacy. The boat
was scheduled to start at noon; by a wild
rush the missionary arrived in time. and
there she had to stay until 6 o'clock the
| next evening, expecting the boat to start
food except Korean rice. After that delay
Of thirty hours came the long ride down the
ice filled river.
This young woman. apropos OF the sub
ject Of foreigners feeling obliged to travel
armed for fear of Japanese coolies, related
how In the earlier days, when there was
considerable hostility to foreigners in the
interior of Korea, she was wont to examine
her revolver every night. in spectacular
though she was as much afraid of the
weapon as they. Once, sojourning in an
inn with an evil reputation, she overheard
an ominous conversation. Going out front,
and with great circumstance of preparation
the missionary made as II to shoot a maybe
in distant tree. The terrified natives be-
sought her not to do so, and, with seeming
