Miss Frank Miller, native of
Georgia, but a sojourner all her life
in foreign lands, was the principal
attraction at the Chautauqua Assem-
bly, Saturday, and she remained in the
city over Sunday and gave an inter-
esting address at the Baptist church,
the place of the assembly, Sunday
night
The Saturday afternoon meeting
despite the rainy weather. Miss Mil
Ter gave an address to the children,
and while it was coucned in words
and expressions suitable to the audi
ence to whom it was addressed, it
was also of great interest to all the
grown people present She told of the
many countries she has visited, of
different parts of this country, of the
sights she has seen, experiences she
mas passed through, and did not neg
lect the opportunity to tell some of
the lessons she has learned. Her ad
dress was thoroughly enjoyed and be
spoke a bigger house for the night
meeting. Miss Greellee made her mi
tial appearance as a vocalist at this
session and delighted her many
friends with ner wonderfully sweet
and well-rounded voice. She was ac-
companied on the piano by Mrs. Ed
Ellis.
Miss Miller was dressed in costumes
appropriate to the countries she talk
ed about at the Saturday night ses-
sion. Japan and Russia and their re-
cent war were the principal subjects.
Again Miss Miller proved an enter
tainer aid again the patrons of the
Chautauqua felt repaid for coming
out in the bad weather. Miss Baker,
the splendid young contralto singer,
furnished the special music on this
occasion. The attendance was the best
Saturday night up to that time, the
receipts showing that about $50 were
present.
The Chautauqua hall was occupied
Sunday afternoon with a free, relig-
| ious meeting, held by all the Protes,
tant ministers of the city. The at
tendance was splendid and it was
one of the best meetings of the ses-
sion Manager Andrews, of the Chau-
tauqua, turned the session over to
| the ministers of the city, and they
made a platform" meeting of it. AT
| ter a song by the choir, Elder c. C.
Hill opened with prayer, after which
Mrs. Ed Ellis and her sister, Miss
Baker, gave a vocal duet. Then Rev
John w. Smith, of the NJ. E. Church
South, delivered an address on the
gospel and its people, showing the
value of comparison in Christian
work and showing the good one de
nomination could secure by compar
ing it's work with that of another
Rev. Edwin Emerson Davis, of the
Presbyterian church, gave a mas
Christian unity.
Rev. Jno. H. Murray of the First NJ
E. Church, showed the necessity o1
ldivisions IN the church in order tc
work well among the different kinds
of people.
| Elder &. {. Hill, OF the ChrlStlaI
church, then spoke on Christian un
ion, rather taking issue with his pre-
ldecessor on the platform and main
tanning that there should be but one
church.
Rev. H F. vermillion, of the Bap
tist church, closed with a short tall
and prayer.
