HEARSTPQINTMADE Massachusetts Committee Is Against the Unit Rule, 0LNEY MEN ARE IN CONTROL If Convention Desires, It Can Vote for System So Obnoxious to the EditorConcessions, How ever, Are Probable. BOSTON, April 20. A spirit of con cession to the supporters of W. R. Hearst was manifest at tonight's meeting of the Democratic State Convention called to perfect arrangements for tomorrow's state convention, at which delegates-at-large and alternates to the National Convention will be chosen. The friends of Richard Olney asserted, however, that the convention would advocate Mr. 01 ney's nomination for tho Presidency by selecting delegates pledged for him. The Hearst men, headed by George Fred Williams, won what they consider an Important concession from the state committee, when that body voted against the embodiment of the unit rule in tho call for tho convention. Mr. Williams said the part of the convention call which declared that the election of district delegates was subject to the action of the state convention had never been au thorized, and had been subsequently In serted illegally by ex-Mayor Joslah Quln cy, of this city. It appeared that the call had originally been sent out without the words to which Mr. Williams object ed and it was voted that the call as first issued should stand as the legal call for the convention. Although the Hearst supporters won their point before the committee, there Is nothing to prevent Olney delegates from presenting resolutions tomorrow commit ting the convention to the unit rule. Mr. Williams said tonight that if such resolutions wero passed they would be illegal, and any attempt to bind the dis trict delegates would be laughed at in St. Louis. The state committee refused to allow tho protest of the Hearst supporters that the caucuses In Lowell, which elect ed Olney delegates, wore Illegal, but granted credentials to two Hearst dele gates In Chelsea, where Olney delegates had been elected. The candidates for tho Olney wing of the state committee for dclegates-at-largo were said tonight to be William A. Gas ton, Mayor Patrick A. Collins, of this city; William L. Douglass, of Brockton, and Congressman Thayer, of Worcester. It was" understood that those of tho Hearst forces were: George Fred Wil liams, William McNeill, Joseph A. Smith and Charles A. Dean. Tho convention will be called to order by Congressman W. S. McNeary, chair man of the Democratic State Committee. John J. Flaherty, of Gloucester, will bo selected for permanent chairman. Lato tonight tho Hearst men sent a committee to the state committee sug gesting that places bo accorded the for mer on the different convention commit tees. Tho suggestion was accepted and committees with two representatives of tho Hearst faction on each were drawn up. As one is a committee on resolu tions, it is expected that a platform, will be presented at tho convention. It had been announced that no platform would be adopted. IS STRONGLY DEMOCRATIC.

Mrs. G. B. Cellars sang very sweetly during an Interval in the reports, and a quartet of young women sang "Watch man, Tell Us of the Night." Mrs. E. P. Geary led a question hour, during which the convention discussed the topic: "How shall we Interest more wom en in our mission work?" Mrs. E. T. Allen, whose experience and success In foreign missionary wor.c have made her opinion on such matters carry groat weight, gave a short talk. In which she said that it was better In enlisting the Interest of new people to get them to feel, an Interest In the people for whom they are working rather than to give them a yearly report of missionary sta tistics to read. "Makes them feel that the Chinese are real people, with the same aspirations and desires that you have," said Mrs. Allen, "and that they are not a different set of beings. Most of all will say, make people believe that the Chinese and Jap anese are real live men and women and thy will become as much interested as they are in art classes and other intel lectual pursuits." Mrs. Maint of the First Church,, in So-J Democratic primary assure the over whelming re-election of Chief Justice Thomas J. Simmons, of the Supreme Court, over his opponent. Judge Richard B.

Just how tho prophetess got hold of tho good things in store for them is fully explained by their experience. She told Judgo Marks that as an advo cate he would yet rank with Rufus Choate. Mr. Cralb is to havo a wonderful business career and is soon to wed a very hand some, young and talented lady. Mr. Mil ion was informed that Ills mill investment would prove a success. It occurred to the three, after they had attle, said that she had known great In terest to be aroused by the study of "Via Chrlstl," one woman saying that it was better than all the literary clubs she had ever attended. Others taking "part in this discussion were Mrs. E. P. Mossman, Mrs. Overton, Mrs. Dunning and Mrs. Sharp. Mrs. J. Hunter Wells gave a bright recital of experiences In Corea, where she and Dr. Welh havo been earnest workers under tho Presbyterian Board. Mrs. Wells described the manners and customs of tho Coreans in detail and said the Gospel has already done much for them. After the meeting there was an adjourn ment to the church parlors, which were fitted up with gay Oriental hangings and Alaskan curios, making a most attract ive display. In the north parlor Mrs. C. R. Templeton was a charming hostess of a Japanese tea-room, assisted by two Jap anese ladles, of the Portland colony, Mrs. S. Ban and Mrs. Shlmowura, besides two American girls, the Misses Elva and Eva Johnson, who wore pretty kimonos. Mrs. C. A. Dalzell had a table of beau tiful Philippine embroiderings and laces, and Miss Hatch exhibited some curious things from Laos and Slam. "Very Interesting was Mrs. W. T. Hume's Indian corner. In which were hung many treasures from her own col lection and those of Mrs. W. L. Whlt moro and Mrs. Horace E. Butterfield. These Included baskets from tho Umatll las. Clatsops and the various Alaska tribes. Mrs. Wells had a Corean corner, fitted with odd brasses, fans and embroideries. She wore a Corean costume and had a group of friends exclaiming over its queer ness all the time. Miss Laura Parker appeared in tho dress of a Christian bride in Turkey, a costume of subdued coloring, beside which Mrs. B. W. Gage's dress, which an unconverted Turkish girl once wore, made a dazzling bit of rainbow color. A laven der veil was worn with this dress, which had an embroidered Jacket of purple vel vet and numerous chains and bangles. At the south end of the parlor Mrs. Allen had arranged a Persian room, com plete with handsome rugs and cushions. Several Orientals in gay costumes served tea here after the Persian manner, and Mrs. Allen chatted with them In their own language. While tea was being served .every one was puzzled by a strange cry that filled the chapel, until It was cx plainea that Mrs. Allen's Persians were giving the Muezzin call to prayer. Dr. J. Hunter Wells spoke at the even ing session, giving his experience In Corea as a missionary and physician. The story was intensely interesting, not only to those who had labored abroad In the mis sionary field, but to those who remain at home. The opening of a hospital SxS and an operating-room Sxl6, In which he treat ed hundreds of surgical cases, and the way In which he gradually gained the con fidences of the natives by being success ful in his operations, read like a book of fiction. But this, being, as the children say, "a story which is really true," proved of but greater interest. The marvelous attendance at church service and prayer meetings seemed to agitate the ministers present to an alarming degree, and was the means of eliciting a speech from Dr. Hill, who presided. In his happiest vein. Mrs. . T. Allen also spoke on Persia. The programme today Is: Thursday. Morning cession 0:30 A. M. Devotional service, "Holiness Unto the Lord," led by Mrs. J. IT. Wilson. Seattle. 10 A. H. Reports: Secretary for banca aaaj left the quarters of the clairvoyant, that they had left their overcoats In another room, and that the fortune-teller had ac cess to them. She found the pockets stuffed full of papers. Judge Marks pock ets wero filled with legal documents, and of course this told of his career as a law yer. Mr. Craib's pocket disclosed the story of his future with the same certainty, and a nicely scented note with a picture told of the coming wedding. The papers In Mr. Million's pocket told of his invest ments and their probable outcome. The overcoats with all these papers had been ransacked, but in returning the papers the clairvoyant got them, badly mixed, and put them back In the pockets of the wrong overcoats. BOYEB'S LAST RECITAL. Chorus Renders "Seven Last Words" In Admirable Manner. Soprano solo, "O All Ye Who Travel": bari tone and tenor solos, with chorus, "Father, Forgive Them"; duet for tenor and baritone, with chorus, "Verily, Thou Shalt Be"; solos for soprano, tenor and baritone, with chorus, "See, O Woman"; barltono solo, "God, My Father"; chorus and sfelos for tenor and bari tone, "I Am Athlrst"; tenor solo and chorus, "Father. Into Thy Hands"; solos for soprano, tenor and baritone, with chorus, "And With a Loud Voice Jesus Cried"; prayer, "Christ, We Do All Adore Thee." The last recital this season by the Boyer chorus, under the direction of William H. Boyer, took place last night at the First Congregational Church, when a most satisfactory rendition of Theodore Dubois' sacred cantata, "The Seven Last Words of Christ," was given before a large audience. The accompaniment was furnished by a selected orchestra, assisted by Miss Leonora Fisher, organist. A really creditable volumo of tone was dis played by the chorus of about 50 voices, and tho singing was marked by that promptness of attack, vigor and delicacy of shading which punctuates tho wonc of the Boyer chorus. The sopranos carried off chief honors, but the basses were not far behind them. As usual the tenors were scarce, but creditably sang the lines allotted to them. The soloists were: Miss Lytle, soprano; J. W. Belcher, tenor, and Dom J. Zan, baritone. Miss Lytic added to her repu tation as a finished, artistic soloist, and her voice is growing in strength and mu sical value. Mr. Belcher had to sing a difficult role, the reading and interpreta tion of which was no small feat, and he deserves credit for his fine expression and phrasing. Mr. Zan has rarely sung in this city a solo more suited to his voice than "God, My Father," and he displayed a delightful richness of tone. The male voice chorus in tho "Fifth Word" was ex cellent, and tho best effect was obtained In the second last number by the chorus In representing tho effect of chaos. This work was really striking in sudden tone color, and was ably helped by W. T. Pangle, of tho Marquam Theater, who TtmnriErpfl thA praih-ila inI rimmc? tri,. finest, most reverent effect was the un-! accompanied chorus singing of the last number. It had the effect of a benediction. It is to be hoped that the Boyer choir wili keep together, under tho direction of Its talented director, nnd will be stronger than ever when it meets In tho Fall.
