Hunter Wells, Recently from Urea, I ells of Hos pitals and Christian Love. Working among the 12.000.000 Corean people Is a little handful of foreign missionaries who strive In every way they can to bring home the teachings of the Christian religion with convlc tlon to the minds of worshippers of Buddah and Confucius. Not only In a religious sense, but to elevate those with whom they aasoclate along moral, mental and phyalcal lines la the labor of theae missionaries. Dr. J. Hunter Wells, who spoke yesterday at the Flrat Preabyterlan Church of Portland, waa one of theae. "Foreign Missions" formed his topic. Rev. Dr. Wells prefaced his remarka with a statement that the banner of the cross had found lta way to almost every nook and corner of the world, and that so-called foreign missions very much resembled the missionary work at home because of the recent Inventions which enable rapid communication and quick travel. Speaking of the work of mlsalonarlea, he said It waa not only to better the religious conditions of residents of for eign landa, but to dispel dlsesse, to bring about education and to promote the general welfare of the people. In 1666 Rev. Dr. Wells went to Cores aa a missionary, making hla headquarters at ' Pyengyang, a city of 70.000 people. At this place there were 24 Americana, 60 Chinese and 200 Jap anese. The rest were Coreane. Pesti lence and dlaeaae ran rampant. Great good waa done aa a result of modern medical and surgical treatment Insti tuted through the efforts of Dr. Well In a hospital costing only 61.600 more than 76,000 people were treated for eye trouble alone In eight years. Not only have the Afflicted been healed, but a class In medicine and surgery is under training and will Increaae thla good work through dissemination of the knowledge thua gained. The Christian religion Is preached by the missionaries' -carrying on this work and la being readily received. Dr. Wells saya that those who speak of the heath en's religion being "good enough" have never witnessed a pagan country and really witneased terrors of its faith.

"I suffered for months from sore throat. Electric Oil cured me In twenty four hours." M. S. Olst, Hawesvllle, Ky. A daring burglar narrowly eacaped capture at the hands of F. S. Hall, whose room at 15 Tenth street north, the "night prowler had the temerity to enter. While sleeping soundly at 3:30 o'clock thla morning. Mr. Hall awoke with a start to find a stranger In his room snd In the act of departing with his suit of clothes. Mr. Hall objected to thla pro ceeding and at once evidenced hla disap proval by leaping from hla bed and aetxlng the thief. The burglar fought for his liberty and for a few minutes the two men wrestled for victory. The Intruder, however, was the stronger of the two and he finally broke away from his would-be captor and made hla escape In the darkness. Investigation showed that lhe man had gained entrance by raining a win dow of the first floor. He had ran sacked every room on this floor, but nothing -was -missing.- In making his hurried exit he dropped Mr. Hall's clothes. ' The burglar was about 36 yeara of age and of medium siie. He wore black hat which covered hla face so that Mr. Hall did not get a look at hla countenance. . . fifth lol All -Wool Blankets and Suitings AT TREMENDOUS SACRIFICE ! jGjrnivalij )" July Hli A sale at retail of the season's ends of THE PORTLAND WOOLEN MILL'S FLANNELS AND BLANKETS At a fraction of even the mill's prices.

The best lot of artiats so fsr brought together by the management of the Park la on the program this week, and It can be said with truth that one of the most worthy vaudeville ahowa ever witnessed in Port land la the product of their efforts. Probably the greatest winner on the bill presented last night waa the sketch by Kelly and Kelly. The members of this duo are Mr. Kelly, the young father of Miss Kelly, one of the brightest 6-year-old tota that haa appeared in this city. The little miss can hardly be called a tot, for she is as clever a dancer as hundreds of grown persons who make their living with their feet. The great beauty of the entertainment given by thla pleasing pair la the new and wel- ome conversation Indulged In by them. There la nothing tiresome about their talk, which la auch a common fault with half the vaudeville artists. The little girl Is no prodigy either, for what he does Is done with "grown-up" ability. Dan McQreevy, the black-face mono- ogulat. ta very clever, and he dances well. He gives the old Bob Slavln style of work, which la gratifying to a high degree. Frank Bowman, in alelght-of-hand art. la as capable aa any one who haa happened this way at any time. His palming feata are the best seen so far, no one excepted, and the new trick of placing the live canary bird in the paper sack and with the discharge of a pistol transferring the little warbler back Into its cage is very pleasing. Mr. Bowman's trick la also very well done, and while others have displayed the same feature. It eannot-be remembered that any one did It quite ao well, unless It - was- Hermann or- Keller, One of the best carda on the program la Miss Eva Thatcher, the "Irish Lady." She has returned to Mr. Shields' house for a week and when aha appeared last night a royal welcome waa accorded her. Miss Thatcher gained many friends here a few weeka ago, and this time she haa new features which are well received. In fact, the "Irish Lady" la a great favorite. Dacey. Chase and Ward, In their sketch, "Fun in a Gymnasium,' make it a mighty good thing. It la one of those acta that la really funny from tha word go. It Is not too long and one thing that can be aald about It is, there Is no tiresome conversation put In as a time killer. The sketch is differ ent from anything seen here for many a day. If ever before. Dacey la a splen did Irish character and a clever humor ist, and Chaae and Ward give an excel lent exhibition with the gloves; the former punches the bag In a manner that would make many a professional, hlgh- olaaa fighter green with envy TV'lae and Milton, the comedlana, are very good, and make a hit. However, It might be suggested that Mr. Wise attempta too much. He overdoea hla comedy part to auch an extent that, he becomes objec tionable many times. His descriptive talk on "woman's styles" Is very laugh able and it takea well, but he would leave a better Impression were he to cut out barroom guffaws In falsetto. Ke hoe and Ralner are real comedy artists, and some of the exchanges of wit they essay are very fetching. Miss Ralner Is a very pleasing and modest vaudevll- lian, -and if aha continues In the way she began last night she will make many friends in Portland. Charles H. Chenoweth, the cornetlst. is excellent. This virtuoso won the people when he was here a few weeks ago. and all re membered him last night. The moving pictures of Multnomah Falla are the beat that have been exhibited by Mr. Shields at any time. They excel in merit the- pictures of Prealdent Roose velt and the human flag. In fact, no superior polyscope work, or moving pic tures, have been thrown on canvas In a ocal house, and not a more pleasing subject has been taken up than the reproduction of the grandeur of nature such as surround the natural scenery of the falls. Finally, It's a very fine show that Mr. Shields Is giving all this week. and .with pleasant weather great crowds may be expected at the park. The fol lowing Is the program: Frank Bowman, Illusionist The Leonls, horizontal bars. Eva Thatcher, refined Irish comedy. Charles Chenoweth, cornet virtuoso.
