Soroat« Hean Plain Speaking.

Mrs. Eliza Archard Connor, one of the bestknown club women in New York, has beenstirring things up a bit In the town. It wasat the Sorosis meeting that Mrs. Connorspoke her mind, and the "Soroslsters" muststill be gasping. The vigorous little womanwas down for a paper, and she selected"China" for her subject. It was not the

revered "flowing blue" of old Dutch house-keeping fame that Mrs. Connor treated. Sherattled not porcelain, but missionaries andheathen until there was a din the echoesof which have not yet died out. She said shedidn't see how "an American or English-man could look a Chinaman in the face,much less send missionaries out to converthim." The only real missionaries Mrs.Connor said were the women medical mis-sionaries. She said these were saints, apos-tles and evangelists. Then she wound up bysaying: "Let us show the Chinese that onenation at least is disposed to treat themfairly. Let us live some of the Christianitywe profess and show that to the United Statesthe gospel of Christ Is not merely a gospelof grab. Other nations will follow if we do.This is the only way to mend China." AfterMrs. Connor went away there was such talkand such a rumpus. One woman said: "Ithink it's time we had,* board of censors topass upon papers that -&c to be read In a bigmeeting like this." •

A PIANO RECITALPleasant Event Given by Mrs. George

A very pleasant event of Saturday after-noon was the recital given at HampshireArms by the piano pupils of Mrs. George A.

Henry, assisted by Miss Inez Marston, con-tralto. A program of fourteen numbers wasgiven, of which twelve were instrumental.While Mrs. Henry does not announce herselfas a specialist along the line of initiatingchildren into the mysteries of the piano, hersuccess in instruction of that sort has beennotable, as indicated by some of the per-formers on Saturday, who were so little asto be hardly able to reach the pedals. Andyet the playing of all showed not only aprecision of technique, but a musical appre-ciation of which pupils of so few years wouldscarcely be suspected. The piano numbersfor two, four and six hands were renderedby Katherine Dwinnell, Dorothy Daggett,Florence Moore, Marguerite Sexton, MarySawyer, Helen Wheeler, Gertrude Sexton,Alice Pillsbury and Frederick Wheeler. Ofthese, Alice Pillsbury showed the more ad-vanced progress, while special interest at-tached to the playing of Frederick Wheeler,Dorothy Daggett and Katherine Dwinnell,whose capabilities would never b$ suspectedfrom their size, and who, for the most part,gave their numbers without notes. The pro-gram was given "in the dining-room, whichwas handsomely decked for the occasion withpalms and cut flowers.

When going to Omaba don't go 'roundRobin Hood's barn. Take the Minneapolis& St. Louis.
