' new Magistrates Later Prom
ise Ample Protection for
Their Safety.
Boston, March 12. In letter to
the American missionary board of
this city from Pao-Ting-Fu, North
China, the Rev. James Ross Leigh
writes as follows in regard to troubles
of missionaries in China: "On
Wednesday, January 2, some soldiers
who were in Pao-Ting-Fu on their
way from southern or western prov
inces to the seat of war, entered the
street chapel of the Presbyterians
while Mr. Lowrie was preaching,
knocked over his bench and tried to
get his watcli and spectacles,
and seemed ready to make an
attack on his person, when an outcry
in the street, or a street fight, provi
dentially occurred, and led the sol
diers to run out into the street and
Mr. Lowrie closed the chapel. The
mob raged outside the door until sun
set, but could not get in. These sol
diers went on their journey the next
day, but city roughs evidently
planned to plunder our houses when
more soldiers should come, for, on the
arrival of a few thousand soldiers on
Friday noon they promptly paid us a
visit
"Mrs. Noble, going home from the
East court just then, walked throngh
them all into the house and locked
the door. A Chinaman bravely ac
companied her through the crowd.
They broke open the great gate
twice, meanwhile jumping over the
walls in large numbers. The yard is
almost five acres in size, with the
ladies' house and girls' school at the
south end and Dr. Noble's house and
the chapel and boys' school at the
north end.
"I soon saw that I could not con
trol such a mob, and my only hope
was in appealing to the military
officers. We reached the captain and
brought him with us to the mission
compound. The soldiers did not seem
to obey him much, but they might
have done worse if he had not been
there, lie set a guard of soldiers at
the gate to keep the mob of civilians
out, but still we had a mob of soldiers
in the yard. They entered Mrs.
Noble's kitchen and Miss Morrill's
kitchen and beat her severely.
They started through the win
dow' and Mrs. Noble tried
to look unconcerned and spent
the time in reading advertisements.
Miss Morrill came out of the girls'
school and accosted the soldiers pleas
antly. They asked her if she was
afraid. She said that she
but asked them not to go
was not,
into the
girls' school court, as the
there might be frightened.
children
They did
not go mere, as tney were intent on
seeing the foreigners and foreign
houses, having never seen any before.
When Dr. Noble arrived he persuaded
them not to enter the house. The sol
diers had left the gate and I, with two
or three teachers, kept the mob of
civilians from entering by standing
outside and arguing with them by
the hour, and, still more important,
watching closely. A Chinese mob
consists of cowards and cannot en
dure being watched or rather, if
watched, is far less likely to go ahead
and do mischief. A friendly neigh
bor, who is a salt merchant, helped
us, but some men in our own place
became angry and one of them threw
water over the crowd of dirty city
men.
"After what seemed to be a cen
tury, during which time a gentleman
came from the county court, but went
away, doing nothing for us, a crowd
of soldiers, followed by ihe city mob,
left the gate and came to the gate of
the East court, one-eighth of a mile
away, where Mr. and Mrs. Simcox,
Mr. and Mrs. Ewing and I live. I
came with them to watch them and
try to keep them within bonds.
I told the soldiers they might
see the place if they would guard
the gate and keep the city rascals
out. The scheme worked well. The
soldiers did as they agreed. Part of
the soldiers went in at a time and
looked about They did no harm, but
in our helpless condition we had
reason to fear what they might da
Mrs. Simcox held up her baby to the
window to amuse the crowd of sol
diers and that kept them good hu
mored. They kept the gate well
guarded, pnd when they went away
the city mob went with them, and so
did I, for evidently there was a row
at the West court
"On the day after, the high officials
neld a meeting to discuss the situa
tion and devise some means of pre
venting any similar disturbances in
the future. On Sunday the governor
oi the county (Chin IJaien) came to
see us in person, which to the Chinese
mind, is a great honor to us, and
assured us that we should have no
trouble in the future. He has
also issued a proclamation per-
ieciiy sausiaciory to us, copies
or wmcn are posted in front of both
our city and suburban premises. Evi
dently the governor is determined to
do everything he can for our safety,
On Monday a still hisrher official
called to see us, namely, the gov
ernor of the department Chih Fu,
which consists of twenty-three coun
ties, lie visited at eacn of our
houses, talking in a most friendly
way."
A Heavy man Dead.
Clinton, Mo., March 12. W. C.
Cashman, aged 60 years, the largest
man in Henry county, died at 8
o'clock this morning. He had served
twelve years as a justice of the peace

the Union army during the rebellion
and served all the way through. He

months ago
GIRLS IN REBELLION.
The Illinois Home for Juvenile FemaU
Offender the Scene of a Mutiny.
CmcAOo. March 12. At the Illinois
State Home for Juvenile Female Of
fenders last night, thirty-four girls,
ranging in years from 10 to IS, rose in
rebellion against the matron, Mrs. A.
M. Dayton. The latter an I her as
sistants were powerless to control
their charges and were compelled to
shut themselves in rooms to escape
their almost frenzied assailants. while
the o-irls went through the house
breaking furniture, windows.crockery
and everything they could lay their
hands on.
The police were summoned and re
stored order, which was no easy mat
ter as the ringleaders fougnt desper
ately. Four of the girls, supposed to
be ringleaders, were arrested.
The trouble arose because of the
punishment given by Matron Dayton
to Mamie Davis, lfl years old, who is
said by the attendants at the home to
be the worst of the inmates.
To-day the girls were again in re
volt The police were again forced
to interfere and the inmates were
taken to the nearest station.
HARRY HAYWARD SENTENCED.
Ihe Convicted J. Inneapolla Murderer
Doomed to Die In 'Ihree Months.
Minneapolis, Minn., March 12.
When Harry T. Hayward, convicted
of the murder of Catherine Ging. en
tered the court to be sentenced to
death, he was as leisurely and calm
in manner as during the trial, and
surveyed the crowd coldly while the
handcuffs were being removed. Judge
Smith agreed to examine the
grounds urged for a new trial on
March 28, and then passed sentence.
He said that he had no doubt what
ever that the verdict was a just and
righteous one, and, while he did not
believe in capital punishment, it was
his painful duty to pass sentence in
accordance with the law. "The
sentence of this court," he continued,
"is that you be taken to the Henne
pin county jail and there confined
until, after a period of three months,
a time be fixed by the governor of
this state, and you be taken to the
place of execution and hanged by the
neck until you are dead."
Harry listened calmly and sat down
without the slightest show of feeling.

More trouble is expected.
Killed at a Crossing.
St. Joseph, Mo., March 12. At the
crossing where Mallory and McBride
were killed Thursday night, Mrs.
Thomas Allen was instantly killed
last night, Gertie Allen, her 19-year-old
daughter, dangerously wounded,
and Miss Martha Deacon, 1 years
old, fatally wounded. The three
ladies were returning from church
and drove upon the crossing in time
to be hit by the Missouri Pacific fast

300 feet on the engine pilot before it
could be stopped.
Governor stone Vetoes a Dill.
Jefferson City, Mo., March 13.
Governor Stone vetoed the house bill
requiring street railways at railroad
crossings to stop within ten or twenty
feet of such crossings and investigate
before crossing the tracks and re
quiring trolley wires to be strung at
least twenty feet above the road bed
at railroad crossings. This latter pro
vision was objected to by the gov
ernor because it authorized railroad
companies to remove wires and tear
up street railway tracks without any
judicial authority.

Paris, March 13. Worth, the fam

the age of 70.
Worth's greatest service to fashion
remains his invention of the walking
dress, the coat and short skirt all of
the same material. It took all ' the
prestige of his name to force this
great reform upon womankind, accus
tomed to trailing street dresses, but
his persistence succeeded in banish

WORTH, THE RENOWNED MAN DRESS
MAKER. skirt from the highways. It has al
ways been said that Worth invented
this reform for no greater purpose
than to show the Empress Eugenie's
exquisite Spanish feet
The big sleeves which are such a
graceful feature of to-day's modes are
a Worth revival. The first season he
offered them among his designs, they
were ordered for only four costumes;
the next season 2,000 gowns showed
the big sleeves; after that they we re
universal.
The great Worth was an English
boy, born at Bourne, in Lincolnshire,
in 1835. He was apprenticed to a
printer, but gave up typesetting in a
few months and went to London,
where he found work in a" dry
goods store. Under the spell i of
beautiful materials his aesthetic sense
awoke and he began to dream of a
future as a couturier, and naturally
longed to see what he could do in
Paris, then, as now, fashion's chosen
home. He began to study French
and when only 21 ventured to Paris--where
he soon found work in a big
dry goods house. His authority in
questions of taste was at once recog
nized. He became a partner in the
firm and gradually rose until, in 1870,
he founded the present great house of
Worth. To-day the establishment
employs 1,000 persons and Worth has
made gowns for every woman on a
European throne, with the single ex
ception of the greatest one the queen
of England.
It seems to be conceded that genius
will triumph over the most common
place circumstances, but Worth's
career was wonderfully aided by the
exquisite beauty of the Empress
Eugrenie. She was one of his first
customers, for his independent ven
ture into fashion's kingdom
was made when the second em
pire was at the height of
its brilliancy. Having won the pa
tronage of the empress, Worth's
future was assured. Every woman in
Europe who could afford it went to
him for her frocks and this supremacy
he has maintained up to this time
and even now his house is likely to
maintain its influential position since
his two sons have long been as
sociated with him in the management
of the great business. The younger
son, John Worth, is an artist like his
father, -Gaston Worth is the business
manager.

General liarhellor of New York.
Albany, N. Y., March 12. In a let
ter to a 6tate official, General George
S. Bachellor of Saratoga, formerly
minister to Portugal, details a note
worthy interview with the pope. In
this Pope Leo spoke in the most grate
ful way of the election of Father Ma-
lone as regent of the New York uni
versity and then led the conversation
to America. He expressed regret
that certain newspapers and pub
lie men in America had objected
to his sending a delegate to Washing
ton or sending out an encyclical as
tending to meddle with the affairs of
a foreign government, or with insti
tutions with which he had no sympa
thy. "This Is an error, said the pope.
"I do not seek to meddle with gov
ernments except to admonish my
people to obey the civil Jaw ana to
conform to the authority of the land
in which they dwelL I sent a legate
to America in order that I might be
better informed as to the character of
American institutions and the pe
culiarities of the national and state
governments and above all, to recon
cile any conflict, if there should be
any, between the government of my
church and the government of the
land. I consider America essen
tially a Christian country. Re
ligion is free. The government
does not aid nor does it oppose the
labors of the church. I am free to
say that the further I study the con
ditions of this, the more it commends
itself to my judgment If a religion
cannot thrive on its own merits then
it must stagnate or fall. I tell my
people to convert Americans to the
faith by proving to them by pious and
orderly living and by precept and ex
ample that it is the true religion not
to seek converts except through
means recognized by the laws of the
country and the principles of human
and divine economy."
