intention to remove the place of execution in Paris from the Rue de la Roquette to the Place St.Jacques, and the denizens of tae former necighborhcod are much grieved by the report.The change would affect many tradesmen having houses in sight of the little slabs of stone outside the priscn cf La Rcquette which mark the spot where the guillotine is erected.A wineshop dealer whose lease has just

MANITOBA SCHOOL QUESTION.o _\u2014 Winnipeg, Man., Aug.4.\u2014The \u2018 Tii- bune,\u201d recognized as Mr.Greenway's mouthpiece, has a leader on the Dominion Government's rejoinder in the school difficulty, headed: \u2018 The Latest Act In the Farce.\u201d Among other things, it says: \u2014 \u2018 As the attitude of the Manitoba Govern- | ment toward the remedial order, as well as its suggestion regarding an investigation, have been entirely ignored by the Dominion Government, its latest communication would seem io savor somewhat of insolence.The Dominion Government should be infcrmed in the most unmistakable language that the province of Manitoba\u2019 declines to be an actor in the farce which the Ottawa combination is now puiting on the boards.The province of Manitoba has nothing whatever to do with the execution of the judgment of the Imperial Privy Council.That judgment was simply a declaration that certain privileges enjoyed by the Reman Catholic minority having been affected by the legislation of Manitoba in 1890, that minority have a right of appeal to the Dominion Government and Parliament.The obligation to ascertain whether facts and circumstances justified the Manitoba Legislature in withdrawing the privileges manifestly lay upon the Dominion Government.They made no etfort to obtain the necessary information; they made no enquiry into the fac!s or circumstances.They simply arted like a pack of reason- less and obsequious lackeys on an expression in the judgment of the Privy Council, without, in the first place, asking whether the Privy Council was not exceeding its functions and infringing on theirs by using such an expression.Neither have they made the slightest attempt to demonstrate, by argument or by a citation of facts, that tbe action of Manitoba was on the merits unsound or unjust, politically, economically or morally.They have simply abdicated all their rights and obligations to make independent investigation and to exercise independent judgment on the merits, and have made a peremptory demand cn thls province to rescind legislation which bas been declared by the highest authority to be entirely constitutinnal and within its right to enact.\u201c The fecling of the people here is that the whole farce should now cease.The buncombe rejninders and communications really call for no reply.Manitoba is now where it intends to remain.Roman Catholics and every other section of the community can depend on absolutely fair and even generous treatment from the majority.Bu: this province is not called upon to enter into any stipulation to extend to any sec! special concessions when demanded as a right, however disposed it might be to voluntarily do anything in the way of concession consistent with the absolute integrity of the single school system.Sir Mackenzie Bowell and hls colleaguzs must know that no government in Manitoba which would recede from the position which the province now occupies on this question, could live one week after it should meet the I.egislature.\u201cLet Sir Mackenzie and Sir Hibbert carry out their foolish and reckless programme.Let them introduce remedial legislation in the Canadian Parliament and let us see what the result will be.The provinre of Manitoba can gain ne'ther in dignity nor in any other wav by joining In the alsurd game of burlesque \"diplomacy \u201d with which the Ottawa \u2018\u201c statesmen now seek to cover up the incompetency and dishonesty which culminated in the remedial order.Asa preliminary to any further correspondence on the subject, the government here should make the unconditional withdrawal eof the remedial order a sine qua non.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 A STARTLING RUMOR.A STATEMENT MADE BY AN AMERICAN PAPER THAT THE MANITOBA GOVERNMENT WILL BE DISMISSED FROM OFFICE.(Toronto ¢ Mail and Empire.\u2019) Minneapolis, Aug.2.\u2014A special to the \u201cTribune \u2019 from Winnipeg says: Sir John Schultz, Lieutenant-Governor of Manitoba, has transmitted to Mr.Greenway a communication from the Dominion Government asking Mr.Greenway to state just how far he will go in a ompromise on the Roman Catholic school difficulty.Sir John, after transmitting the communication, took the train for Banff, in the Rocky Mountains, where Sir Mackenzie Bowell, the Premier of Canada, nôw is.In Winnipeg to-day the startling rumor was circulated that if Mr.Greenway persists in his refusal to remedy the Roman Catholic grievance, he and his ministers will be dismissed from office by the Manitoba Governor.The Governor has the power to do this, but such a high-handed course would be calculated only to intesify the trouble and bitterness.It is certain, however, that the Dominion Government is contemplating some decisive movement.pe AN AMAZING STORY.AN ALLEGED FIRST WIFE OF THE LATE JAY GOULD TURNS UP.New York, Aug.4.\u2014The \u2018World\u2019 today says that Mrs.John Angell, of Rouse's Point, N.Y., claims to have been married at the age of fifteen to the late Jay Gould, then aged seventeen, and alleges that the ceremony was performed by the Rev.Dr.Clayton, of Champlain, N.Y.The plaintiff, Mrs.John Angell, declares herself to be the first and original and only legal wife of the late millionnaire.Mrs.Angell has collected evidence to prove this surprising claim, and her case is in the hands of several well- known firms of New York lawyers.Not only do Mrs.Angell\u2019s allegations, if established, illegitimate the present family of Jay Gould, but they upset the entire estate and throw into inextricable tangle the vast millions of the late millionnaire.More than all this, if Mrs.Angell establishes her claim ever title, deed and conveyance ever made by Jay Gould is vitiated, according to the law of the state.Never in any court in this country was made a claim against an estate of such far-reaching extent.Perhaps more interesting, even.than this is the claim of a daughter of this first wife.; This young woman, who is married, is living in a western state, and is a party to the claim against the Gould estate.She Is represented by a separate law firm, one of whose members has recently been here in her interest.MARK SHERBURN COMMITTED, THE LENNOXVILLE MURDERER MUST STAND HIS TRIAL.\u2014 The preliminary examination of Mark Sherburn on the charge of murdering J.H.Hull, at Lennoxville yu June 27.was conducted before Judge Chauveau, at Sherbrooke on Friday morniog.Mr.Wm.White, Q.C., appeared cn behalf of the Crown, and Mr.J.S.Broderick represent- .band, well equipped.ed the accused.The evidence given was in accordance with that adduced at the coroner's inquest.An effort was made by Mr.Broderick, in crecss-examination cf! the witnesses, to show that Sherburn was insane, but no facts were clicited to prove that any grave symptoms had appeared previcus to June 27, last.James Pearton testified that to his mind Sher- burn was perfectly sane.No witnesses were called on behalf of the accused, and he was committed to take his trial at the next term of the Court of Queen's Bench.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE MASSACRE IN CHINA THE VICTIMS ALL BRITISH.CHINESE TROOPS DESPATCHED TO THE SCENE.London, Aug.5.\u2014The \u2018Globe\u2019 publishes a despatch from Hong Kong saying that the massacre of Whasang, near Ku Cheng, commenced early on Thursday.The mob set fire to the houses of the missionaries and killed eight women, one child, and the husband of one of the women.Several Christians were wounded, two of them probably fatally.The bodies of those who were killed are expected to arrive at Foo Chow to-morrow.Chinese troops hove been despatched to the scene.The British and American consuls will interview the Viceroy of the province in regard to the outrage.All the foreigners who were killed were British, all Americans escaping.The members of the attacking party belonged to a Chinese sect.: Dover, N.H., Aug.5.\u2014Isabel C.Hartford, said to have been badly injured in the massacre in China, was brought up in Dover.Her father and mother are dead.She is thirty-five years old.For six years she was a teacher in the Yale Primary School here, and then went to China as a missionary.She was sent by the St.John's M.E.Church Foreign Missionary Society, and has been in China eight years.ee.THE CUBAN REBELLION.Key West, Fla., Aug.5.\u2014Passengers by the steamer \u2018 Mascotte \u2019 state that the censorship over the press in Cuba is so strict that it is impossible to learn any news from the field.The government has prohibited the publication of all news of the revolution.By private letters it is learned that a battle took place on July 28, near Puerto Principe, between Maxi- mo Gomez and Gen.Mello, in which the latter was killed and his troops hadly defeated.Guerroy Guero, one of the most prominent leaders in the las trevolution, has joined the insurgents with a strong Roloff, on Aug 1, blew up a railway bridge near Placetas and captured a train loaded with troops found from Cienfugeos to Placetas.It is stated that Martinez Campos is badly wounded and has taken refuge on board the ship \u2018 Villaverde \u2019 at Guantanamo.Madrid, August.5.\u2014Official despatches from Cuba state that the Government troops have defeated near Matanzas a band of insurgents from Las Villas.It was added that Jose Maceo\u2019s band hail been defeated near Santiago, and that several of the insurgents were Killed.No details of the fighting are given.\u2014 a THE WEATHER.Meteorological Office, Toronto, Ont., Aug.5, 11 a.m.\u2014The following

months for overthrowing the present Hawaiian Government and restoring ex-Queen Liliouakalani to the throne, unfolds a new one to the public.According to the \u2018Chronicle\u2019 Mr.W.P.Morrow, of this city, has been engaged in enlisting from two hundred to, four hundred men to go to the Islands on a sailing vessel from this port, within ten days or two weeks, to capture the five steamers that ply between the Islands, {and then apprcach Honolulu and take possession of the revenue offices and the bank of Bishop & Co., thus securing {from three hundred to five hundred thou- \u2018sand dollars.The proposition in regard to the Queen, is to place her on the throne as a mere figurehead, the head of the revolutionary party to be in control of affairs.The Hawaiian Consul-General, Mr.Wilder, will use all the resources at his command to follow up the details of the alleged plot.San Francisco.Aug.5.\u2014The \u2018Chronicle\u2019 this morning adds another chapter to its Hawaiian filibustering story of yesterday, giving further details of the alleged plot, Charles Creighton, who was Assistant Attorney-General under the Monarchy in Hawaii, said:\u2014\u2018I am one of the exiles, and I would know if any such scheme as that related by the man who calls himself Morrow, had the sanction of Hawaiians opposed to the Dole Government.I never heard of Mr.Morrow.\u2019 \u2014__ THE POWERS PROD THE PORTE.A EUROPEAN HIGH COMMISSIONER WILL PROTECT CHRISTIANS IN ASIATIC TURKEY.London, Aug.5.\u2014The Anglo-Armenian Society of London states that Great Britain has induced the powers to send a collective note to the Porte to the effect that inasmuch as it is unable to protect Christian residents of the country, the powers havo decided to appoint forthwith a European High Commissioner with vies: regal authority to administer the Eastern Asiatic provinces in the Sultan's name.This Commissioner, however, shall be solely answerable to the powers through a Board of Control sitting at Constantinople.Baron Ds Kally, the Austro-Hun- garian Finance Minister.js mentioned as likely to be appointed to the position.London, Aug.5.\u2014The * Daily News\u201d prints a despatch from Constantinople, giving what professes to be an accurate summary of the Porto's reply to the powers.According to this despatch, the answer consists of a criticism cf the proposals which virtually amounts to a refusal on the part of the Porte to comply with them.Constantinople, Aug.4.\u2014The reply of the Porte, made on Aug.1, to the communication of the powers demanding reforms in Armenia, is conciliatory in tone and promises compliance with many of the provisions demanded.It proposes to appoint Christian assessors to assist the provincial governors; to select sub-gov- ernors and police from Mussulmen and Christians; to inspect and improve the prisons: to introduce measures for the prevention of violence and abuses: to check the excesses of the Kurds during their migrations, and to trv to induce them to settle in some particular locality.The answer criticises the suggested reform of taxes and the other points proposed by the powers, ccntend- ing that they are not practical.\u2014____ \u2014\u2014\u2014 some of KING OF DENMARK ILL.FATAL RESULT FEARED ON ACCOUNT OF HIS EXTREME AGE.Copenhagen, Aug.3\u2014King Christian of Denmark, is suffering from a recurrence of catarrh of the bladder.It is hoped that the attack is not a serious one, but his illness, in view of his great age, is causing muoh anxiety.He is more than seventy-seven years old.London, Aug.3.\u2014It has been the intention of the Princess of Wales, eldest daughter of the King of Denmark, to spend the vachting week at Cowes before making her usual visit to her parents.But the chances are now that she will leave for Copenhagen at once.According to good authority, a mare riage will soon be arranged between Prince Christian of Denmark, eldest son of the senior brother of the Princess of Wales, with one of the daughters of the Prince of Wales.Prince Christian, who was born Sept.26, 1870, will inherit the greater part of the immense fortune of his mother, Princess Louisa, daughter of King Carl XV.of Sweden and Norway.She was the richest heiress in Europe when she married Prince Frederick of Denmark, July 28, 1869.a AAT Te ae Ti mn a * Lo SR SEP pr eer 2 A BIRTHS.MARRIAGES AND

that the Russian Government will indemnify the owners of the two Canadian sealers seized by Russian gunboats in 1892.The vessels are the \u2018 Willie McGowan \u2019 and the \u2018Ariel,\u2019 of the British Columbia sealing fleet, which were seized by the Russian cruiser \u201c Zabiaka ' in July, 1892, about forty miles off Copper Island, on the Atlantic coast.Both vessels were confiscated and their crews sent home to Victoria by a sailing vessel.These were the first vessels seized by the Russians, and were among the first nf the Capadian fleet to resort to Asiatic waters upon the closing of Behring Sea by the modus vivendi between Great Britain and the United States in 1891.The seizures took place outside the limit of what was subsequently, by agreement, conceded to be the protected zone about the Russian seal islands.Scarcely a question could be raised against their right to indemnity for the seizure.At the instance of the Canadian Government ! a prompt demand was made upon Russia for indemnity; but although these requests were again and again renewed, the Russiang delayed a settlement.While there were nine Canadian sealers seized by Russian gunboats, the promise of Indemnity to two of the schooners indicates that the Russian Government has at length admitted the illegality of at least two of the seizures, and its right to indemnify their owners.Cl ee DO

brokers in Hamburg received five thousand beautiful sealskins, with instructions to forward them to J.ondon in time for the big February ; sale.It was noticed that the packages did not bear the usual customs marks, or any other indications of their having | been sent through ordinary trade chan- | nels.What also struck the agents as peculiar had a bullet hols in it.on good autherity that these skins were sent by offizers of a Russian warship, which left Robins Island last September.It is assumed that the enterprise was a private speculation by those who were sent to profect the seals.were encaînped on the island for four or five months, and no one was allowed to Jand on the island during their stay there.It is presumed that the crew of the warship employed its time in killing these seals with clubs.The skins were sold here last February.\u2014\u2014 THE ANCIENT CAPITAL.NOTES.Quebec, Aug.4.\u2014There was a very uneasy rumor current here yesterday, that the Richelieu Company's steamer \u2018 Three Rivers \u2019 had met with an accident returning with a large party of pilgrims from La Bonne Ste.Anne, and that many lives had been lost, but it could be traced to no rellable source.Only a few of the injured sufferers by the Cralg\u2019s Road accident still remain in hospital at Levis.Mr.Allard and Mr.and Mrs.Goulet have left for home, and Mr.N.Godbout expects to be also able to do so in about ten days more.Miss Seraphine Cayer and her father are, however, still suffering very mugn.It is said that Lieutentan-Governor Chapleau intends to take a trip to the Pacific coast.The \u2018 Electeur' sharply criticises the accounts for travelling expenses as they appear in the Auditor-General's report, of certain officials of the Public Works Department at Ottawa.people who know something about it, will be amazed when they hear that these officials have been paying at the rate of $2.50 per day for board in the country parishes below Quebec which they have : visited, when the current rates of board there is little more than $2.50 per week.The Liberal organ thinks that a stop should be put to this kind of thing.It is reported that a very serious ob- stacls to the immediate commencing ot the construction work of Quebec's electric street railway has arisen in the opposition of the Quebec Street Railway Company (tramway) which claims a monopoly of the streets through which the alectric cars are to run.There is a report that Miss Touchette, a seamstress, who was an important witness in the famous Odell-Gregory case, was drowned to-night In the river

Brazilian telegraph and cable company Is at the bottom of the terrible fuss reported in Brazil over the acquirement of Trinidade by the British.It appears that the Brazilian Cable Company levies heavy toll upon all messages between Argentina and Great Britain, and since the develop- i ment of the trade between the two countries owing to the great quantity of wheat exported to Great Britain by the Argentine Republic the business is a very profitable one.The ; British cable by way of Trinidade is- ! land would rob the Brazilian cable of \u2018this business, hence the big fuss made i over the British seizure of the barren rock.It is believed that mail ad- vices from Brazil will show that the \u2018 reports of the trouble have been great- , | ly exaggerated by the cable company in its own interests.\u2014\u2014-\u2014e i American yachtsmen are very funny.; While they held on to the centreboard | they declared it was an American in- | vention and amounted to an \u2018institution\u2019 Since they dropped the centre- | beard they have discovered that it | was an English invention and was im ported.The fixed centreboard is | now the American institution, though it is not easy to distinguish between it and the keel on which the British \u2018have all along relied.On Friday the breaking of a hollow gaff lost the \u2018Defender\u2019 the race for the Goelet cup.+ On Saturday hollow spars were also : an invention of the enemy, that is of the British, and are not to be relied upon, even when improved by the Herreshoffs.It appears that Ameri- i can yachts, both hull and rigging, are British inventions, and have always i been.If the \u2018Defender\u2019 is beaten it will be because she is a keel boat, rigged with hollow spars and fitted with sails after British fashions, and American yachtsmen will sigh for the days of American clippers and schooner yachts.If the \u2018Defender\u2019 wins she will be American all right enough.~\u2014 The grasshoppers are doing a great deal of injury to the standing grain in many parts of this province.They eat off the stalk where it is tender and juicy, about two or three inches below the head.The recent rains killed off a good many of the grasshoppers, and for a day or two after they were less numerous, but they seem to have multiplied again and became as multitudinous as ever.There is no practical way of dealing with the plague so far as is known.In the prairie regions they have what care called hopper dozzers, machines like great dustpans curtained in on three sides, and having a trough of kerosene oil in front.The machine is dragged smartly by horses and | scoops up the grasshoppers, which are ; killed by the kerosene, the smallest | touch of which is said to be certain death to grasshoppers.Such a means of killing them off is expensive and not altogether effective, and can, of course, be used in meadows only.It been carrying off the grasshoppers of is said that a contagious disease has' California, and an attempt will be, made to introduce it in Minnesota and Dakota, wherc the grasshopper plague offices, because the government dare move ambiguity.names are taken do not take themselves off, and a quite unnecessary confusion results, while the association of the two places under the same name is often as funny as when a little negro rejoices in the name of Thomas Jefferson or Julius Caesar.The same confusion, with less excuse in the matter of sentiment, results from calling many places after one hero or after many heroes of the same name.It is alike feeble to call a county in every state after the honored Warren and to call a dozen places in one state after as many local eponymous pioneers all bearing the name of Smith, or Clarke, or Reid.In this province of Quebec, though the calendar no doubt still contains a good store of unrecognized saints, we have scores of places dedicated to the same patron, necessitating all sorts of subterfuges for distinction.The adoption of the names of saints is no doubt a matter of religion, with which we should be sorry to interfere.; have no means of knowing by what : rules the saints divide among them i the care of this sublunary crust, and we rather enjoy the humor of the mutually repellant and vocally quarrelsome combinations of the Frenchified names of mediaeval worthies with the uncouth Saxon of names imported from England.Such unequal mar- rlages as St.Adolph de Dudswell, St.Agnes de Dundee, St.Anne de Boundary Line, St.Charles de Capelin.St.Valerie de Bulstrode, St.Ephrem de Tring, St.Louis du Mile End, and countless more, are certainly quaint ; £0 are some entirely French ones, such as St.Denis de la Bouteillerie and St.Joseph de la Tabatiere\u2014St.Denis of the butler\u2019s pantry and St.Joseph of the snuff-box.Where there is no conscientious ground for the repetition of names, we think sentiment is hardly a warrant for it, or rather that a correct sentiment would avoid it.The possession by any place of a name which confuses it with some other place is the best excuse we know of for changing a name.ce OVERHANGING APPOINTMENTS.The Toronto \u2018World,\u2019 a government organ, announced the other day that Mr.A.W.Ross had resigned his seat in parliament as member for Lisgar, Manitoba.Mr.Ross was once a Liberal, who, being greatly interested in railways and other large enterprises in Manitoba, became a Conservative in the days of the Canadian Pacific monopoly.Since then he has been true to his salt, but the general belief is that he holds that his salt has not been true to him.He has been promised, according to public report, all sorts of promotion and preferment, from a seat in the Cabinet and a lieu- tenant-governorship down to a post- mastership, but nothing has been given him.It is said that he threatens to resign, and the government cannot afford to open Lisgar or any constituency in Manitoba, so he will get, not what he asks, but more promises.Mr.J.C.Patterson was also promised the lieutenant-governorship of Manitoba, and his appointment was announced by the Conservative organs, which declared that a by-elec- tion would take place in West Huron as a consequence.Mr.M.C.Cameron, the Liberal candidate, came heme from Florida to contest the constituency, but the election has never been brought on ; Mr.Patterson never got the lieutenant-governorship, and thus another by-election was avoided by the frightened government.Mr.R.S.White has long been promised the collectorship of this port, but the office is kept vacant, like all the other has been worse this year than for n not open Cardwell, which is his con- We : of earlier appointments : it would the civil service.This method would not apply to senatorships.which are not subject to revocation.Legislation would in their case be needed.The act should make all appointments made within a given time of the demise of any government null unless renewed by the new government.Sir John Macdonald\u2019s government made a great number of appointments after its defeat, and many of these, if not all, were cancelled by the Mackenzie Government with the approbation of everyone but the appointees, ee CHRISTIAN MARTYRS.Christian martyrdom has become in most men\u2019s minds matter for art, for romance, for devotional reading, for anything but contemporary history.Yet the horrors that have come down to us from the days of Stephen and Paul and the Roman arena are fully paralleled, if not more than paralleled, by events passing before our eyes.The massacre of Christian missionaries at Ku Cheng must not be confounded with the recent assault.on those at Chen Tu, in the province of Sz-Chuen.That province is the innermost one of China.and is drained by the upper waters of the Yang tse river, while Fu Kien is one of the provinces best known to for- elgners.It is on the seaboard looking towards the south-east, and is that in which Fu Chow and Amoy, treaty ports, are situated.So long as outrages upon Chinamen in Christian countries are daily reported in the press, resulting for the most part from nothing but absolute antipathy of race\u2014the same reason which makes dogs and cats who are unacquainted dislike each other\u2014we are forced in confusion of face to curb our bitterness at those committed by the ignorant canaille of the Chinese streets.As we are very indignant whenever there is any suspicion that magistrates in America show any sympathy with or allowance for brutal or murderous attacks on helpless foreigners, we have a right to be likewise indignant at the reported connivance of the Chinese authorities at the attack made upon Christian missionaries.We demand, as we hope the whole press of Christendom will demand, that evil-disposed or pusillanimous officials who may have made themselves responsible for the outrages reported shall be held to strict account therefor, whether it be the removal of their top buttons or the re- mcval of their heads that justice calls for.Still more indignantly we demand that if it be true that mandarins who have connived at outrages have been promoted, the emperor himself or his responsible satraps shall be directly reckoned with in a manner that will make it to his and their interest to act differently.Burning as we are, however, with shame and horror at the vilemess of the iniquity through which, according to report, possibly false, holy women have been called to pass, we are bound to consider the condition of the population among whom it has occurred, as well as of their rulers.To them, according to their most sacred and deepest convictions, a foreigner is a devil.The more he acts differently the more mysteriously unholy he appears to them.Or if they have it forced upon them that he is not only not wicked but that his generous beneficence is a reproach to themselves, they very heartily resent the contradiction of their prejudices, All | rather be a vindication of the inde- | pendence alike of parliament and of: \u2018value them.The Chinese are no doubt a very intelligent, but they are | not a well-informed people.If they have a national vice more noticeable than another it is the lack of impe- i rial patriotism.The recent war, vestige of this.Is it then to be won- | ! seemed to prove that they had rot a | graceful and skilfui of flight.dered at if even good rulers should\u2019 be seen cutting the air in gracef:) be somewhat tolerant of the neanest thing they have to patriotism, namely, race prejudice ?It is the one principle possessed by the Chinese people to which the Government can look as pire.A London paper remarks that the whole question of Christian missions will need to be reconsidered, and that those who send out weak women to the midst of such dangers must be held to their share of the responsibility.We have not enough of the \u2018Chronicle\u2019s\u2019 article to know whether it is the policy of the kingdom of heaven or that of Great Britain towards it that it proposes to revise.latter, | a nationalizing one or on which they | can hope to consolidate the soulless - mass of cognate humanity which the ages have agglomerated into an em- | If the ! it is quite within its sphere: , | if the former it is evidently bevond | its depth.Dangers have not generally been a check on Christian zeal.Though there is little, if afdy, morbid seeking of the crown of martyrdom for its own sake, which is said to have existed in the desperately circumstanced church of the first centuries, there have generally been found, as on fields of earthly contest, two to step in where one falls, and Christians still rejoice, as did the apostles, in being counted worthy to suffer for the name of their Lord.The blood of the martyrs has in all ages been the seed of the Church.If there is to be any reconsideration or revisal of the policy of the kingdom of God it will certainly take the form of self-accus- ing inquiry as to whether the Church has done its whole duty by these ignorant people, and will result in renewed consecration and renewed daring in the way of spreading the light of life.Out of the bitter anguish of this terrible experience will rise a new interest in the ignorant millions of China and a new desire for their salvation.Nothing has yet been tive Christians at Ku Cheng, but it has been a singularly cheering feature violence which has taken place of late vears that these have most valiantly, heroically and self-forgetfully stood by the missionaries.It shows that the kind of Christianity which is produced under the pressure of such danger and obloquy as stuff, and well calculated to serve as a good foundation for what will probably ere long grow into a gigantic Christian movement.MUNICIPAL REFORM.(The Chautauqua \u201c Herald\u2019) I met Prof.E.R.LL.Gould of Johns Hopkins as he left his classroom in the college, and 1 asked him to give mec his views on the organic

the nose, with which these sinuses communicate.To bore a hole into a cow's horn and pour into the cavity any irritating substance is a most cruel and senseless practice and cannot cause other than great paln and discomfort to the animal, and were it riot that the sinuses communicate with the nasal chambers, by which passage the irritant and the products of inflammation caused by it can escape, permanent injury would result.I am perfectly aware that the cow's horns are often cold when the animal is not well, but this is only a symptom of a constitutional disturbance and not a local affection.There are always other symptoms which to the careful observer are of mich more diagnostic value than the cold horns.Pallor in a man's face does not call for the application of a blister to the cheeks, nor should cold horns on a cow call for the injection of an irritant into the delicately lined sinuses of the head.IT.A.> COMMERCIAL NOTES.The following business firms have been

Auvcrsr 5, 1295, MISSIONARIES MASSACRED Shocking Outrages Upon English and American Women and Children in China.\u2014 CHINESE OFFICIALS BLAMED.GREAT INDIGNATION IN ENGLAND.London, Aug.3.\u2014A despatch from Shanghai gives the details of the reported massacre of Christians at Ku Cheng.The ladies who are supposed to have been killed are believed to have been members of the Church of England,

Foo Chow, in the province of Fo Kien, one of the southern Chinese provinces, occasioned much alarm at the offices of the Methodist Board of Foreign Missions yesterday.The board has bad at Ku Cheng a flourishing mission, comprising a school for boys and girls.Dr.Leonard, secretary of the board, at once cabled to Foo Chow to learn if the Americans were safe, as it was reported that five foreign women wera killed In the massacre.The Methodist missionaries stationed at Ku Cheng are Dr.Gregory, of Dakota, who is in charge of the hospital; the Rev.Dr.Wilcox, of Iowa; Miss Mabel Hartford, of Dover, N.H., and Miss W.H.Rouse, of Lakefield, Minn.There is also an English Church mission at this point, in charge of the Rev.Dr.Bannister and the Rev.Mr.Stewart, both of whom had their wives with them.The Rev.Dr.C.C.Baldwin, who has been a missionary in China since 1547, ard left there last April because of failing health.was seen at his bome in Newark yesterday.\u2018It is lkely,\u201d said Dr.Baldwin, \u2018that the trouble which culminated in the massacre was occasioned by friction beiveen two native elements\u2014the Vegetarians, who believed that they were unjustly discriminated against regarding taxes, and the anti-fcreign group, who, through their secret societies, are constantly striv- Ang to prejudice the government against the missionaries.The Vegetarians are more amenable to Christian influences, and are, generally speaking.more moral, but the anti-foreign group outnumber them.Before we left China the American consul at Foo Chow Lad ordered that all the women connected with interior missions should be brought to the treaty ports, where, if necessary, they could seek safety on the American men-of-war.The missionaries are in no way to be blamed for this outbreak, but if the report is true, have undoubtedly been at tne mercy of a large anti-foreign mob before government troops could be called in.There are several thousand natives at Ku Cheng and in the surrounding country.\u2019 he Rev.Dr.S.L.Bakiwin, of Brooklyn, who was a missionary in China for vears, and is well acquainted with the cf Ku Cheng, said last nignt:\u2014-\u2018 If the despateh is true, there is no doubt that the five fcreizn women mentioned beleng to our mission or Lo the Esglish Church mission.This is one of the most flourishing missions we had in China, and a vast amount of good has been accomplished there.T think our hospital at Ku Cheng is the largest one connected with any foreign mission in China.Trouble has been feared between the native factions for months, and I hope later reports show that our missionaries heeded the consul\u2019s warning, and are safe at Foo Chow.The anti-foreign element is very lawless under excitement, and, unless checked by government troops.may have looted the mission sections completely.\u2019 Len FIRE IN ST.JOIINS.St.Johns, Que., Aug.4\u2014The fire brigade was called 12.20 last night for a fire in the large bullding used as storehouses, ete., by the different merchant tenants in the Molleur block, on Richelleu and the cellar by Mr.J.G.Molleur for storage of hats in connection with his bat facterv.When the alarm sounded the fire had gained such headway that the surrounding buildings were illuminated like day.There being quite a breeze at the time it was feared that the fire would extend to the factory on St.Charles

QUESTION.MR.GLADSTONE AND ARMENIA.New York, Aug.4.\u2014Mr.Harold Frederic cables from London to the \u2018 Times\u2019: There is a notable and extremely welcome lull in politics here in England.The very immensity of the Unionist majority affects the public imagination like an opiate.The Speakership question hardly concerned the general crowd at any time, and, except for a passing impression that Mr.Chamberlain has proved too smart for Mr.Balfour in the matter, its settlement in favor of Mr.Gully has roused no Interest.It was, perhaps, in a sense, Mr.Chamberlain's triumph, but the really conclusive element was the solidity of the Tory lawyers in the House against unseating the eminent Queen's counseller who had obtained the Speak- ership.The English bar {is the most powerful and clannish trades union in the world, and when it said * Gully \u2019 there was nothing left for anbody else to say.Mr.Chamterlain had merely the acuteness to see this and get on the winning side before his slower-witied colleagues in the cabinet had begun to imagine that Mr.Gully\u2019s being a lawyer might be of importance.It is stated\u2014I do not know on what authority\u2014that Mr.Gladstone, in his Armenian speech next Tuesday, intends praising Lord Salisbury\u2019's correct official attitude on the matter and, by implication, ignoring what Lord Rose- bery has done.This would be a most curious development in the whole strange story of the Grand Old Man's vehement alienation from his successor in office.As the successive chapters of this story have been detailed In these despatches, from the very outset, they have been in conflict with all other contemporary accounts yet none the less have they been absolutely true.This last report, however, sems to be too histrionically complete to be true.As the election turned out, it is hardly likely that Mr.Gladstone's appearance in the campaign with his Ar- mentan atrocities would have made much difference in the result; but he did intend making this appearance, and then abandoned the idea In a furious rage at Lord Rosebery\u2019's attempt to saddle him with the cdium of selling peerages.MR.CHAMBERLAIN.New York, Aug.4\u2014Mr.Isaac N.Ford cables to the \u2018 Tribune\u2019: After the tidal wave there is a sudden, complete calm.Liberal leaders and journalists have abandoned thetr attempts to explain the Unionist fiood, and are silent, except the cynical Labouchere, whose fire against Jl.ord Rosebery cannot be appeased.The only consolation which they have after their overwhelming defeat is the reflection that the Unionist majority is so large as to be unamanageable, and that Mr.Chamberlain, the man whom they hate, cannot dictate the governmen:'s policy, and may some time head a revolt against Lord Salisbury and Mr.Balfour.This conclusion leaves out of account the fact that Mr.Chamberlain is something more than an adroit political organirer and election campaigner; he is a statesman of lucidity of mind and creative energies, and represents ideas as well as votes.Even with its great majority, the Salisbury Government can hardly afford to dispense with the services of a leader who is now the brains of the Tory Democracy.The premature efforts of the Unlonist Journals to forecast the policies of the government have scarcely left a ripple on the stagnant waters of politics.Everyone knows instinctively that the financial votes will be easily obtained when parliament reaassembles for a fortnight's session, and that nothing else will be done.The Unionist propaganda will not be disclosed until February.Lord Salisbury never has been accustomed to allow any minister to dictate policies to his government, nor to suffer the party to anticipate his own decisions.A prime minister with a majority of over a hundred and fifty behind him can be depended upon to lead his party without much assistance from the journalists.THE SPEAKERSHIP.A cabinet meeting held this week settled the question of the retention of Mr.Gully as Speaker of the House of Commons.The temptation to displace him was strong, but the opinion amongst most of the influential party leaders was general that after a prolonged campaign of denunciation of the so-called revolutionary tendencies of Liberalism, it would be a grave mistake to reverse recent precedents and to convert the Speaker- ship into a partisan office.The feeling against his displacement was so strong that there might have been a cave formed on the government side at the opening session, and a Unionist speaker might have been elected only by a small majority.Mr.Balfour, who has been credited with a determination to turn down Mr.Gully, has been alarmed by the vision of a powerful faction of his supporters marching into the Opposition lob- by and defying his authority.The reinstatement of Mr.Gully in office by his political opponents will reaffirm the principle established by the Conservative Government in 1874, when Mr.Brand, who had been a Liberal whip and was then elected Speaker, was retained in that position.Mr.Chamberlain is silent on this question.In a brilliant and triumphant speech delivered last night at Birmingham, he extolled, however, the Unionist alllance as a coalition which had endured the storm and stress of three general elections and was stronger and more stable now than ever before.THE IRISH PARTY, The Irish members, having slightly increased their representation in parlic- ment, are taking an optimistic view of the situation, Mr.Justin McCarthy is not downcast nor disheartened, but is encouraged by the constancy of Ireland to the home rule cause.Mr.Timothy Healy's Dublin organ advocates a return to the liberal lines of the Irish policy.This may be a sign of a coming alliance between Mr.Redmond and Mr.Healy, based not upon Mr.Gladstone's bill but upon a more radical measure of Irish independence.The main policy of the Irish members under Mr.McCarthy's leadership is not likely to alienate Liberal sympathies: by following Mr.Healy into Mr.Redmond\u2019s camp.Mr.Gladstone is sllent on political questions outside the circle of his intimate friends.An attempt may be made to draw him out on the Armenian question at the public meeting at Chester before his departure for Scotland.Lord Salisbury, however, if the Unionist journals are not over-sanguine, does not need Mr.Gladstone's co-operation in order to bring the Porte to terms.The change of government is represented by them to have had the wholesome effect of forcing the Sultan to accede to the demands of the powers.gp A COSTLY FRIENDSHIP.HOW THE CZAR'S LOVE FOR BULGARIA KEEPS HER IN HOT WATER.THE PRESENT RULER MUST GO BEFORE PEACE CAN BE SECURED.New York, Aug.4.\u2014Mr.Harold Frei- eric cables from London to the \u2018Times: \u2014 With all the goed will in the world, Europe Is not permitted to take its mind off Bulgaria.By day and by night this wretched little community sits on the old world's chest.It will not be shaken off.The week's developments seem on the surface to have wrought a great change in the Balkans.A few days ago everybody took for granted that the Czar apd Prince Lobanoff had come to an explicit arrangement with the Metropolitan and his Bulgarian deputation, and that Russia was prepared to resume, upon her own conditions.her old dominant position in the principality.Now, on the strength of a semi-official despatch from St.Petersburg, waich, of all places, ap- peated first in the \u2018Cologne Gazette) everybody has rushed over to the other side, and regards it as settled that Russia implacably persists in her chronic refusal to have anvthing to do with Bulgaria at all.Nothing could better illustrate the mental confusion to which eighteen years f suspense under an annual threat of war, have reduced the Continental press, but the English journals have much less excuse for being so easily rattled.The Bulgarian delegation is timed to arrive at Sofia tc-day, and in the course of the public reception organized for them, it is presumed that the Metropolitan Clement or his companions, will make a statement of what news they bring.This statement could have been foreshowed weeks ago.The Czar has never ceased to love the Bulgarians dearly, but friend- lv relations with them are impossible so long as they persist in supporting an illegally formed government shadowed by a prince not properly electad according to the treaty of Berlin.They may, therefore, make their choice, either to get on without Russlan recognition as best they can, or chase out their prince and his irregular government, throw themselves at the Czar\u2019s feet, and, under his paternal guidance, re-construct themselves on the lines laid down by the Berlin treaty.We know so little about the actual state of feeling throughout Bulgaria, that it is difficult to be sure what its answer will be.No doubt Clement, who, since Stam- buloff\u2019s destruction, is the man who seems most clearly to know his own mind and to be likely to enforce it on the country, aims at entire submission to Russia.If we assume tbat he can deliver his goods, then Prince Ferdinand will not return, his ministers and administrative machinery will disappear, and a provisional regency, probably with Clement at its head, will ask Russia for a safe interpretation of its duties under the treaty of Berlin.THE BERLIN TREATY.Having broken most sections of this famous treaty, Russia knows them intimately.Taking them as they originally stccd and adding to them all the modifi- cattons in practice which the contracting parties have subsequently made to suit their own convenience, there ls material enough for all the internal jurists to rack their brains over.There is hardly any conceivable point on which Russia cannot spin out debate indefinitely the while her furious advanced wing of political soldiers fish with profit in the troubled Bul- garlan waters.There is naturally talk of another conference to draw up a fresh treaty, and I even hear that England has begun sounding the other powers on this project; but the Continental courts are rather afraid of recourse to such an important step.It might go off smoothly, but the chances seem to be the other way; and then the fat will be in the fire.Yet, without a conference, it is plainly seen that Russia will go on slowly complicat- ' ing affairs in the Balkans till somebody will have to object and be prepared to support the objection by a show of force.This is Europe's dilemma, not all new, but rendered somewhat more acute row week by week.Meanwhile, it ts very interesting to note how all the different centres of political speculation and rumcr on the Continent agree in ascribing an active part to England.Russian newspapers are publishing as authentic the story that I.ord Salisbury has offered to join the Triple Alliance if it consents to give Austria a mandate at once to occupy all Macedonia.Berlin newspapers declare that of their own knowiedge.England has just made a new compact with Italy by which their forces are to cooperate in Africa to keep the French out of the Nile valley.The Parisian press has not the shadow of 2 doubt that England has commited herself body and soul to the Triple Alliance, and teems with detailed plans for joint Russo-French navy action in the Mediterranean and Red seas with the view of seizing the Suez canal and preventing the British and Italian fleets again from closing the water route to the East.studying cf army lists and war maps on this side of the world just now, that perhaps ethe more serious imminent problems over on the Pacific ccast will meet with next to no attention.It is not supposed here that Lord Salisbury can accept the new Franco-Chinese treaty without a protest, or, at least, without seizing for England\u2019s territorial compensations, and it is confidently expected that friction win be developed in that far away quarter, ' either on this point or between Japan and Russia, before Europe discloses anv genuine cause for uneasiness.\u2014\u2014 SOUTHAMPTON GRAVING DOCK.THE PRINCE OF WALES ASSISTS AT THE OPENING CEREMONIES.Southampton, Aug.3.\u2014The ceremonies of opening the new graving dock tock place here to-day.The Royal yacht \u2018Osborne,\u2019 with the Prince of Wales and his party on board, arrived at noon.The vards of the
