Can a Chinaman bccomo n Christian !
Hov. Frederick .1. Masters , 1 > .I ) . , pro
pounds the question In the current Issua ol
the California Magazine , nnd presents an
nfllrinntlvo answer , coupled with an histori
cal sketch of tlioCblnosoand tbeir progress
from paganism to the Christian fold.
The question whether n , Chinaman can uo
converted is often nskcd , RA.VS llav. Masters ,
not with oyiilcal scorn , out In the aplrll ol
sympathetic appreciation ot tbo Inimonio
diftlcultfrs that confront the missionary In
his work.
' In China tbo vastness of the field , the
density ot tbo population , the conservatism
of the people , tbo tenacity with \\1ilch they
cllng'to nutignal customs anil traditions , the
philosophical and rcllgfous systems that for
fortv centuries bavo molded Chinese fiiougbt
nnd crysUllzcd their habits ; tbo tromcn-
do'Js - Influence of Iho clans nnd
aiiccstrnl religion are , It roust bo udmlttod ,
conditions very unfavorable to tbo propaga
tion of n now faith.
u Obstacles III tlio States.
Ono might cxnsct to find a moro favorable
'field for missionary enterprise among Chi
nese residing In n Christian land , but this Is
not the caio. The little credit n Chinaman
cots' on this const for his Christian profes
sion ; the cold suspicion with which bo is
often treated , as if ho must necessarily bo a
hypocrite ; the anti-Chinese sentiment of the
coast , shared oven by sonic ministers of re
ligion : lhoopt > altlng Immorality nnd godlessness -
ness of our ctl05 ! , which o Chinaman is not
slow lo detect ; the fresh mnmoiics of inur-
dered.kinsmen , of riots , boycotts nnd savage
oppressionanil t ho frequent boo Jlu tn assaults
made upon dofoncelo a Chlucso. oven upon
their women and cblldien , as I nave seen
myself , do not make the whlto nun's re
ligion , morals and social lifo particularly nt-
"tructlva to the average Chlncso mind. In
*
s f the face of such gigantic ; dlflicultics ono can
excuse the skepticism that underlies tbo
luostlon , "Can a Chinaman bccomo a Chris-
ilnnj" 'i'lio marvel is that any Chinaman
wilt icccivo Christianity from a wblto man's
lips.
.Misinformation.
Much of the populrtr information about
Chinese missions at homo and abroad has
been gathered from trailers , naval ofltcors
und globetrotters , who , In ninoty-uluo cases
out of u hundred , bavo never been inslilo of n
mission church or school and nro tncomue
tcut to give information of tbo results'of
Christian norlc in China as an average
heathen Chinese merchant on Dupout street ,
, or u Chlucso sailor would ba to estimate tbo
Christianity of America. Judged by what ho
BOOS on Tor Flat or the Burbary Cojst , or the
number of white pcoplo thai bo sees going to
church on bundays.
Twenty Years' Work.
In China nearly 50,003 men nnd women
bavo made an open profession of the Chris
tian faith , have given evidence of a change
of heart and life , and have beep admitted to
tbo churches of tbo different Prolostnn * .
missions. In addition to this , it Is
estimated thcro are ever a hundred
thousand moro wno nro regular attendants
at the mission churches. All this U prac
tically the result of only twenty-live years \.f
Christian work. On the i'aeilic coast dur
ing about the snmo tlmo ever two thousand
Chinese have been icceived inlo our
churches after giving proof of the sincerity
of their convictions. Many of thcso have re-
turncd to tbeir homes in Chlnn ; some have
poiio to colonize missions In tbo cast , while
. over a thousand remain with us. That some
have proved false and brought dlscruco npon
' thu church cannot uc denied. Such cases
nro not unknown in American churches.
Some of tlio Hunt-fits.
' That many Chlncso bavo boon reached an'l
ccrmancnlly bonclltod cannot bo seriously
denied. To sco men who wcio highbinders
becoming peaceable nnd law-abiding ; idola
ters becoming intelligent and Godfearing
mon ; camblorj that have been , changed Into
industrious , honest and upright mon ;
opium smokers breaking nwuy trom ttio
chains of nn enslaving vice ; and women
once the Inmates of tbo vilest dens of China
town now domestic servants In American
houses , or the mothers of Christian families
training up their children in iho paths of re
ligion and virtue , are surely truiibformatloiis
of character that are beyond dispute ana are
results that no hostile criticism can assail or
ignorant ridicule disparage.
An Incident. _
Judge N. G. Curtis of Sacramento , whoso
forensic cloquonco bus often thrilled our
local courts , und whoso profession has accus
tomed him to weigh evidence and read char
acter , Is u Very valuable witness. Severn !
years ago bo hud a young Chinaman tn his
.family who became a member of the Prosby-
, leriini church. For several years ho watched
that young man's lifo very closely , Ho
Judged it by the severest now testament
lasts. Ho says be found him devout , upi -
i right.honest and true , his spare time being
devoted to the study of the scriptures. The
judge's family became much attached to him
on account of his singular wotlnemont of
character and purity of Ufa. At last ha' was
tnUcn ill. Ho was nursed with tender care
during a lingering sickness berne with
Christian fortitude. Before ho died ho ex
pressed a wish that ho'might bo burled with
Christian people unit that his heathen Kins
men should not bo allowed to take bis boJy
away. When the missionary cuinu to attend
tits funeral iho judge said : "I have been
looking for a model Christian life and T have
found ono in this Chineselud from across the
seas , ' " In Sacramento city cemetery there
vetan'ds u splendid rnarulo mouumunt that
cobtoVor 51COO , erected nt the expense or
.Tudeo Curtis , bearing the name , "YoCJon
klip , , " und.tho words , "Ho lived and died n
Chilstmn ; " and that costly tomb , tlio' noble
testimony ongrnvon thote , anil the stainless
record of that younir Chinaman's lifo nrc
plain , silent , thrilling evidence sufllclent to
convince the most cynical mind that n
Chlnamiiu'iimy bccomo a true Christian.
J'opnlnr Kirnrfl. ,
(
Tlio Jtcudfastness Of Clnnoso Christians
tinucr persecution Is a powerful evidence of
the gcntilncnoss of tholr conversion , Tbo
popular'oplhlbn ' U that a Chinaman professes
Christianity for merremiry ends aifd can
chUDRQ his faith us easily as ho changes his ,
coat. It Is diftlcult to discover what
temporal gain attaches to the Christian pro
fession of a ipan who Unas himself tiastout
of family , , dun , guild ana ainploymout ,
i cuittd as ho walks down tbo sticets , and
counted ns tbo tilth and nffscourlnc of the
earth. During my nine years' resilience in
Kouth China , three yours of which my
inU&ion Journeys lay in that part of the
province that U iho homo of tbo Chinese In
Ainurlra. 1 Jiuvo witnessed what terrible
persecution tbcso converts huvo to
endure on their return homo.
1 hnvo seen men who , on
lyinounciug their Christian faith , have been
iicbcrtca by parents , wlfo und bruthrcn ;
others who have mppttly boroo bonds nud
btrlpea and imprisonment because they
would not renounce their faith or cease pub
licly to tenchvhat \ their follow villagers call
"tbo religion ot tbo foreign devils. ' '
Terrible TemocuUoii.
1 known man who was bnptltoil in the Meth
odist mission tn San Francisco who Invested
lits hard earned savings In n lot of ground.
AVhcu bo Docnn to build his house hu refus'od
to consult tbo oracle , would not call in , the
Tuoist pnc ts with tbclr incanlnltonu to
drive nwuy iho evil spirits. Ait , epldomlo of
.unmllpox broke out lu iho vllluga uud was
supposed to have been o'cca-
filoncJ by iho omission of tlieso
rites , His follow villager * threatened
him with death , but ho "vofusod to make
peace with the pods. The poor fellow's
DOUCO was tprn down , his properly coullsca-
ted , and htratelfboatcu till ho dropped down
in a utiito of unconsciousness. I have soeti
thpso Christian men Buffer the looting and
de &tmotion of tholr houses because tboy
would not 8Ub cilbo to tbo festival
of u hcuthen god. A small contribu
tion of half a dollar would have spared thciu
pom and vannHgautc , yoV tbcio bravo uiuu
Vrould tuffar 4w < uUy the cpollloK ol their
goods rather than compromise prfhclplc nnd
violate conscience. Were thcso raon hyoo-
crltosr Uid those hcrolo souls Join the
church for the snVo ot temporal gain !
Mbcrnlltj- thn Cnnrrrt * .
Their liberality to the church Is another
evidence of tbo sincerity ot their
profession of 'tho Christian religion ,
Taking Into account their scanty means
and the mrro part of their Income
which Is sent homo for the supportof pironls
nod families In China , tholr liberality is un
surpassed bv nny body of Christians In the
world. The Chinese of the Congregational
missions the larccst on this coast last year
contributed J0.2M to the treasury ot tbo mis
sion.
In the provlnco of Canton there Is n bind
of natlvo utnornnt ovancolUti. phvsiclans
nnd colporteurs who nro poing from vlllaijo to
village preaching the gospel , healing the Melt
nnd selling Christian books , and the whole
expense of this mission Is berne bv the youn ?
Chlnatnon of the Congregational missions of
thlu coast by men who , wo nro tolt ! , are "Ir
redeemably bad. "
The Presbyterian mlsilon Chlnoao nro
equally liberal. Hoaldcs contrtuutlng to the
expenses of the work hero , they nro Bonding
gcnorou * assistance to the greater work be-
i ir done In their nativci towns.
Tbo li'i members of the Methodist
Mission church every year contribute
from $1,51)1) ) ) to $ ISJJ to the church.
'J'Uoy nay their shuro ot all
church benevolences , not foraottlng the
poor , infirm mlnlstorrf of the conference , to
whom tho.v clvo from K3 to ? TO every year.
Tholr liberality Is shown during the
last seven years In gifts to the great
missionary society that sent them the
gospel , amounting'to over Kl.ROO , or noolit
$500 every year. Not satisfied with this ,
they hitvo just formed a missionary society ,
Ilka their Congregational brethren , to em
ploy Christian workers In their homos , for
whk'li purpose they h.ivo nlrcnilv raised over
$1,000. In the Baptist nnd Episcopal mis
sions , thcro is the same spirit of ber.ovolcnco.
Devotion ot tlio C'ouvurta ,
The devotion of thcso people to tholr
pastors and teachers Is another feature of
tholr character. Such prodigality of grati
tude and such constancy of friendship wore
never seen us in the relation of Hock to pastor
in China. The Uov. Mr. Wnlloy , who has
Just returned from China , was at wutiu dur
ing the recent riots and tolls how nobly the
native Christians stood bv him nnd his wlfo ,
nnd risked thsir Uvos In tbclr defense when
all their Htiropeim friends had tied. I knoiv
nothing in history or fiction moro
thrilling than his account ot the
way thcso Christian Chinamen faced a'
raging mob and raging ll'imos to rescue thi-co
hum English , children from a burning mis
sion house nnd restore them to the arms of
tholr distracted mother. Ask her U sbo oversaw
saw u Christian Chinaman.
Shall I ever forgot-that September mornIng -
Ing In Canton , eight years ago , when the
streets Were surging with a despdrato mob
U.OOO strontr , yelling "Diwn with the foreign
devils , " when fourteen line mansions ot the
foreign merchants were looted and burnt to
the ground , the residents onlv barely suc
ceeding in saving tholr lives } Deserted by
fellow-countrymen , cut off from succor nnd
with death starlne us in the face , the only
neopio who befriended mo nnd mv family
during the long hours oMhut terrible day
wore Christian Chinamen. It was a member
of my church who smuggled us into his
house and kept us concealed in n back
room. It was a band of Christian Chinamen
of my church who forced their way through
the mob , ut the peril of their lives , to make
sura of our safety , und who , within sound of
the howls of the mob , the roar of the flames
and the crack of musketry , stood round us In
our defense , vowing that no harm should
come to their dear pastor and his family as
long u ) iholr lives hold out. If tlieso men
wei-o 'not ' Christians tbeu that word has no
moaning to me.
Chinese .Ministers.
Of the Chinese Christian ministry much
mlcht be said In illustration of the
capacity of a Chinaman to apprehend
and intelligently expound the highest
truths ot the Christian religion. Many
of them are cultured Rontlnmen who
have become Christian ministers after
throwing up more lucrative situations. The
preaching of , manyf of thorn would do credit
to any pulpit in Christendom. Their sermons -
mons , interspersed with apt illustraticns.nro
packed with thought , profoundly oxcpttlcal
nnd forcibly logical. Some uro orators ,
others theologians , some practical , while
others bubble 'over with wit and humor.
Blameless In their integrity , fearless in their
denunciation of error , and suffering day uy
day contumely and insult , they seem to have
come fresh from tbo apostolic age. There is
Hcv. ICwau Lay , who preached in tlio market
wince of Kau Kong , knowing that offers of n
reward of SoOU for his head had been posted
all pvor the town. There is Dr. Sia Sok Ong ,
u graduate of the Imperial university , who
throw up a lucrative situation to become a
Methodist preacher , itinerating from village
to village nnd preaching the gospel , some
times on less than ? i a-nionlh. The author
of the prizo'.tract ' , "Who is Jesus 1" , a suc
cessful pastor nnd presiding elder and tour
years ago delegate to the last .Methodist
general conference , Dr. Sole Ong
is worthy n place in life highest
rank of the Methodist ministry. Among
Chlnc&o preachers lu California the
most brilliant , , perhaps. Is Uov. Chan
lion Fan , a man of liberal ideas , a good
English scholar and a proachnr of singular
eloquence and power. No braver thing was
over done in San Francisco than bis open at
tack uuon hlghbindcrism while preaching on
the open street of Chinatown a few months
neo. On the vfiry.apot that n few days before -
fore had been , reddened with the blood of
murder , nnd undortho rooms of a highbinder
society tbo crowd-stood * for au hour and
listened to thl' ? bravo preacher openly ex
posing umldenouncing the murderous secret
societies that had dlsgrocctl their nation and
to"iTori7.ed Chinatown. Another noted
nroichor i'i Uov. Tong Keel Hlng of the
Baptist mission , perhaps the best biblical
scholar itnd closest , thinker In the Chinese
church. Ho has ocen called the Chinese
Spurgcon for his ready wit , his
luminous presentation of truth , nnd his sub
tle and searching application. Uov. Mr.
Wong ot the Presbyterian mission Is a f.ood ,
practical preacher , whoso clear exposition
and chnslo diction make him a model for
younger men. Tbcro is Itev. Ng Peen Cbiu ,
who is a good .English scholar , reads his
Hebrew blblo and ( JrteU testament and Is
nbout to bo ordnlncd to the mlnlslry-in the
Presbyterian church , Mentionmust' ) bo
made , too , ot Ueo Onm , ono ot tbo oldest nnd
most respected Chinese Christians in Call ,
fornln , for twenty year * court interpreter at
Oakland , who.sponds his spare time In evan
gelical work IK connection with' , tho. Con
gregational mission , Thcro Is , - olio.
Lee Tang Hay , tuo Mothodlstlocal
preacher , whoso scrm'dns arid nd-
drussc * , In English and Chinese , arose
so full of pith nnd humor that
some liavo called him the Chlnjyso gam Jones.
Many other Instances mlzhtlio given , but
these will sufllco to show that Chlnixmon can
not only bccomo sincere Christian believers ,
but also preachers of the gospel , ds intelli
gent , faithful , earnest nud consecrated ns
can ho found In the pulpts | ot our own
churches. _ ,
With these results 'It surely 'cannot bo
seriously maintained that Christian missions
among thu Chlnoio nro n failure. Year after
year these yountr men of "Far Cathay , " who
hnvo boon unuorour Iniluonco pnd , instruc
tion and have been brought In contact with

Whereupon she became so nnpry that
she refused to nrgu , further on the sub

A Uholcru srurc.
A reported outbreak of cholera at Hol-
metta , N. J. , created much pxcitomont in
that vicinity. Investigation showed that tbo
disease was not cholera but a violent dysen
tery , which Is almost ns severe and danger
ous ns cholera. Mr. Walter Willara , a
prominent merchant of .lamcsburg , two
miles from Uolmottn. "Says Chamberlain's
Colic , Cholera nnd Diarrhoea Remedy has
given great satisfaction in the most SOVOIM
cases of dysentery. It is certainly ono ot
the best things ever mado. For sale by
