Drowning a Chinese Widow.

On the evening of the 30th of June,
while the steamer Peking was lying
alongside the hulk at Hankow, the Of

woman from a Sampan close to the

one of whom was seen to push her into
the water. Mr.. Morgan, of the Gus
tom service, who saw the occurrence
from the shore, ran down the steps and
rescued the woman. the water there
being only about six feet deep. When
he pulled her out of the water it was
found that her hands were tied behind
her and that q large stone was fastened
around her neck. She said to her res
cuer, "Maskee! more better l die"
When she recovered from the effects
of her bath she went home. At 4:30
A. NJ. the next day she was Success

frustrated on the previous day. They

arms and fixed stone around her
neck, they pushed her into the water
as before. After life was extinct they
pulled the body up by the line around
the waist, took it ashore, and buried it
with the usual funeral rites. The
