TORTURED TO DEATH.
Terrible Method of Executing
Murderers in China-Ghastly
Scenes and Relics.

Scenes and Relics.
There is morbid desire on the part
of some travellers to see an execution
in this grim city of torture. writes
Clement Scott to all exchange from
Canton. Men and women who at home
faint at the very idea or blood steel
their nerves to witness the torture OF
the condemned Chinaman. 1t is torture
in the most acute form. For COM
paratively miner offenseS the miserable
wretch is allowed to kneel with dozen
or twenty others in a low while the
eXecutiouer comes along with sharp
knife, lifts up the treasured pigtail and
slices off the heads as easily as carrots.
But when a Chinaman murders his
father-or, worse still. his grandfather
then mere behedding is considered
too good for him. Then the CHASTITY
cross Is pulled out and he is literally
killed by inches. He is hacked about
piecemeal until death puts an end to
his sufferings and his head is severed
from his dismembered body. These
are the sights of Canton that many of
my countrymen have had the nerve to
witness and the power to describe.
Luckily for me, no such temptation was
put in my way.

tons are stopped, but l WAS in duty
bound to visit the presidential cells OF
