8avaw Tribes of
Laos, Hertfc .(
Mrs. W. A. Brim, for flfteen years a
miaalontrr In the kingdom of Laos, lying
northward of . Slam. . delivered a pleating
an4 Interesting adAraas before the Wom
en's Missionary societies of the Presby
terian church at the rirst Presbyterian
church Wednesday afternoon.
Much local Interest Is attached to Mrs.
BrlseV visit to Omaha from the fact that
she la the special missionary in that coun
try In whose support the Nebraska Pres
byterians are personally Interested. Mrs.
-'Britrss Is a pleasing talker and has the
laculty of Interesting her bearers from the
strt and seems to be able to tell In a plain
narrative way. Just what her friends would
like to know. She advanced the rather
unique Idea that much better results are
to be obtained from missionaries who have
fairly large families with them, In that
the natives by vlsltln and seeing the mis
sionary families ret a better and broader
conception of what real Spme lire Is. She
" mildly criticised the U - r three olssses
ef home people who held varied, views to
gardlng missionaries.
"The first of these," she setd. "are those
. who think the missionaries are eranka
The second, those who have a fairly good
Idea of what constitutes the missionary
spirit, but are never quite ready to put it
to practical use. Our great bulwark Is,
however, that grand class of people whose
hearts are with us and are unceasing In
their efforts to aid us and whose prayers,
"eeppleroeoted by works, are our strong sua-
" Ttanance.'
Jre aaa Trials of Bllaaleanrr Life.
Dhe spoke ef the difficulties they had to
onoounter tn the change- ef station, the
privations of travel through the rainy sa
son. the Journey lasting eight days, ever l-
7ynost Impassable roads, throush swamps
W4 mountain passes, and the enjoyment
t at last reaching- their new borne.
v "The country was entirely new," she
continued, "the people were sew to. us, and
snuot of them had uever seen a white per
sua until they saw ua Our new station
was the groat trading place of the cara
vans from the uok.au w a north, from China
end rrons the south. These strange people
were kind and hospitable. They , were
easily susceptible and wanted to U-ara of
ths gospel. They would read the tracts
and Bibles wo gsve them, which were In
the iaos tongue, and would then give them
to others or ask copies for others, and
Cm those books and tracts became wldiy
uered wtth. their wealth of truth.
"While they oould road, they aeemed to
be utterly Incapable of absorbing the mean
. tug of what they read. Aa a rule they were
barbarian Tney did not ksow tte n.ean
Iteg of the weed koate, and bad ao word to
their language that meant a home. Their
habitation waa always referred to as a
houae, with but little affectionate associa
tion connected with It. They knew nothing
about higher civilized life." Mrs. Brlgga
read a number of letters she had received
since returning to America from frlende
there. These all breahed an affectionate
Interest In her, and expressed a wish for
her return.
Flowers Appeal to Natives.
"They are passionate lovers of flowers,"
she said. "We planted nasturtiums, hello
tropes and roses from America, which
thrived abundantly, and they had a special
preference for such flowers as possessed
a fragrance. They are fond of muslo and
enjoy our gramaphone greatly. Tl-i' have
a sort of literature of their own, but It is
largely In the form of palm leaf manu
scripts In their temple libraries, snd many
of these are hundreds of years old. How
ever, they are beginning to learn and are
eager to be taught. They have a great
faith In spirits. Each post in their houses
has Its special spirit The elephant Is their
most valuable possession and they have a
special spirit for the elephant, whose good
offices must be Invoked when the elephant
Is sick. While they, enjoy music, they do,
not seem to comprehend the" relation of
words to music. They are not as Industri
ous as they ought to be. There Is but little
evidence of progresstveness among them.
The children are dressed In the same man
ner as their grandmothers. There Is very
little of the phase of childhood In their
Uvea. They do not have many toys. The
children learn to smoke as soon as they
are able to hold a cigar In their mouths.
But still they are Improving. The older mis
sionaries had much to contend with, and
hence the taek of the later missionaries Is
leas difficult thsji that which confronted
the old missionaries. Wi arf getting them
out of the wey of smoking. ' They have
some disagreeable customs, and have their
wn peculiar Ideaa of courtesy. ' -They were
at first disposed to bow to us ss soma su
perior beings, but we soon taught them
that this was wrong, snd that Ike were
but human, tike themeelveo. They never
forget one, and are kind In their way."
Mrs. II rig is answered many questions
asked her by the women present. Mrs.
BruTfcs and her husband espect to return
to Laos In December.
Dr. W. A. Brlggs of La us. Slam, lectured
last night at the Lowe Avenue Presby
terian church on missionary work In that
far-off country.
The people, who call themselves "tal." or
freemen, gained their liberty from China
while Christ was on earth, and yet, aald
Dr. Brlggs, they had to waif l.SuO years
to hear Christ's gospel, eomethlng over
fifty yeara .ago the Presbyterian church
sent a few missionaries to the Siamese
and has been eendlng them ever since.
Results were so slow that one or the moat
eiDerleneed of these missionaries told Dr.
Brlggs on the letter's arrival In 81am,
seventeen years ago, he was not sure there
was a single native Christian In Plm.
The missionaries found the "tat" in Ig
norance and barbariara. Though once they
Were builders of cities and knew how to
Work In iron, and copper, snd gold, they
had degenerated until they did not know
how to use even hammer and saw. Though
they had received a written language TUO
years ago from the Buddhists of Burmah,
it was scarcely used when the rrtisslon
srtes came. They had to tesch the Slameso
to read, to build, to work in iron. Dr.
Brlggs said much had been accomplished
In Christianising and civilising the Siamese
In the last few years, but moro mission
aries were needed. There are numberless
tribes of many languages, he said, who
have no missionaries to preach to them.
Dr. Brlggs told his hearers the news that
Dr. Claude Mason, who waa a member of
Lowe avenue church before going to
Slam as a medical missionary, will leave
Chleng-mal, where he works with Dr. Mc
Kean, and take a station of his own fur
ther out In the wilderness.

ROMANCE OF THE PAY CAR
Recollections of a Venerated Railroad
laatltatloa Now oa tho
Jaak Pile.
The good old dsys are gone. In these
heathen times railroad men are paid by
check, or the psycar and Its luxurious
travels C. P. Carter writes sntertalnlngly
In the July American Magaslne, Here la
Mr. Carter's description of the sight that
used to meet the eyes when you walked
down a siding- and entered the paycar.
"A metal coin rack crammed to the mux.
sle with three denominations of yellow
boys, flanked with silver, and on the desk
behind It a very lurae UoOden trav nn
which were long columns of yellow coins.
u ye ever see anything so pretty in all your
life? No wonder your eyes stuck out until
you could have used them for hat, pegs.
"And all the time aa exquisitely musical
tinkle, tinkle, cllnk-cllnk welled up from
the coin rack and counter In response to
the calls of the assistant paymaster. Talk
about Beethoven's symphonies!
"If It wers not for that strong wire
screen you could have touched that fasci
nating tray. For the infinitesimal fraction
of a second a wicked thought flitted
through your brain. Then you almost
fainted as your roving eye stared down the
barrel of a monster revolver. It was only
In a rack, but It was within easy reach of
the paymasters hand and most eloquent
for all thst. Half a dosen of Its fcUows
lay In the handiest places, with aa many
Winchesters lying on tables and settees,
came in strong on the chorus.
"Hurriedly your vagrant wits busied
themselves with all the Sunday school les
sons you bad ever learned. Aa your sub
consciousness perceived that the head of
the road's secret service department stood
on the plstform with his eyes Intent oa
every man In the car at once, while Con
ductor Unkenpln stood on the ground out
side very much alert, with his coattall
bulging suggestively, your bosom swelled
with pride over the wstchful care tho com
pany had exercised Jo bring Its honest toll
ers their hard-earned money."

The July Keystone, the official organ of
the women's clubs of the southern states,
gives a detailed account of the organisa
tion of the Virginia Federation of Women's
Clubs May 16. "May 16 was a great day
In the history of the women's club of
Virginia,' It says. "On that day. In re
sponse to the Invitation of the Lynch
burg Woman's club, a member of repre
sentative women gathered for the purpose
of organising a state federation of the
cluba In Virginia." Mrs. Sarah riatt
Decker, president of the General Federa
tion of Women's Cluba, and Miss Louisa
B. Poppenhelm, former corresponding aec-
retary, were guests of the convention.
Eleven clubs became charter members.
While delegates from other clubs not au
thorised to Join pledged affiliation later.
Mrs. Jamea R. Kyle of Lynchburg was
elected president; Mrs. William T. Harris,
Danville, first vies president; Mrs. Luclan
H. Cocke, Roanoke, second vice president;
Miss Bessie Conrsd, Winchester, recording
secretary; Miss Elisabeth Glsh. Lynch
burg, corresponding secretary; Mrs. E. S.
Leadbeater, Alexandria, treasurer; Mrs.
Walter Ruan. Bedford City, autdltor.
Dues for the year will be S3. The cor
dial co-operation of the various women's
organisations was Illustrated In the greet
ings and congratulations received by the
convention from the Daughters of the Con
federacy, Colonial Dames and Daughtera
of the American Revolution, all of which
are strong In the south. An interesting
and important feature of the meeting was
the presentation and discussion of the fol
lowing plan of work:
Tobr committee on llnee of work begs
leave to report that In the light of the
discussion of yesterday. It would recom
mend that the etrength of the Virginia
federation Tj given to the cause of woman's
education, along both cultured and
philanthropic lines. That the work be de
veloped under strong standing committees
having charge of the following divisions:
1. A rt.
1 C'lvtce.
. Forestry.
1 Industrial education and the home,
i. library extension and literature.
1 Muslo.
T. heulproclty.
We would fuhther recommend that the
committees tn charge of each division be
rhoeen from the clube giving the most
time to work In that department, and that
these committees bo requested, in the
development of their respective depart
ments, to bear in mind the needs of the
poor white girls of the - state and the
responsibility for thera Imposed upon us
by our greater opportunities.
For the olvlo committee we would rec
ommend that they arrange a course of
study covering the lrl history of women
and all laws of Virginia affecting women
and children, and the course of education,
and ail those bearing dlwtly upou the
work undertaken by thla federation.

"Because," answered the English anar
