PROMPT VENGEANCE,
Persain KufIians Killed for Msltteating a
missionary.

LYNCnBURG, Va, Feb. 17.-The
Lynchburg News will print private
letter tomorrow, received here from
Persia, relating shocking instance of
swift and extreme vengeance on the
part of the Shah's government, at the
instance Of Minister Mcdonald, in be-
half Of the American missionaries.
One of their number, Rev. i w. st.
Pierre OF Oroomia, while riding home
from the county late In the evening,
when within little more than nils
of the town, was halted and seized by
some rullians, was dragged him into
most unmerciful manner. With fire.
arms dnd swords pointed at his breast,
he was forced, under the threat Of in
Stant death, to surrender all the money
and other valuables which he had about
him and more was demanded under
penalty Of his life. Having no more to
give, MIR. st. Pierre told them to kill
him at once, II they intended to, as he
was Christian and not afrid to die.
Then they roughly treated him again
stripping him Of his clothing in the Bit
ter cold, and left him half dead, saying
that if he moved from where he was in
so many minutes he would be shot,
When Che tire had expired the outraged
man dragged himself to tho road and
finally reached home in deplorable
condition, where he was kindly cared
| for. The facts OF the case were I'm.
mediately reported to the American
Minister at reherana, who promptly
laid it before the Prime Minister with
most urgent demand that prompt and
| vigorous measures be taken for the ar
rest and punishment of the criminals
who had so brutally maltreated his
countryman. The Prime Minister re-
ported that no effort would be spared to
bring the malefactors to punishment,
and Immediately teIegraphed peremp-
tory order to that effect to the proper
officials at OrOomia. The answer came
quickly that his orders had been obeyed;
that the robbers, four III number, who
proved to be notorious outlaws, had
been captured after stout resistance
and put to death. This summary and
sanguinary ending OF the affair was at
once reported to the American legation
by the Prime Minister, which thanked
him for his prompt action in the mat
ter, and then put in claim for dam
ages for Mr.. st. Pierre.

Judge Brawley presides at one or two

MasoDs chat she knows all the sighs

good for men, it Is much better for
women, as they are more nledful Of
protection than men. She says once by
giving sign Of the order she was
saved from personal violence ana frCm
that moment she resolved to give to
women the same advantages of Ma
sonry that she enjoys. She said that
she was thoroughly mp in the Masonic
work, and 1t was not necessary for her
to obtain the consent or aid of men in
initiating women, and If the men re-
fused to recOgniz9 her deciples as Ma
sons they could and would act inde-
pendently and have lodges and grand
lodges .of their own. Mrs. Lease ad-
mlts that 1t is contrary to the Masonic
rule for women to become members,
but she declines to state how she gained
the secret Of the order. She challenges
any Mason to test her on the secret
