larged and liberal views. Had his
advice been followed his country would
have been in position to fight the
Japanese to much greater advantage in
tho late war; but his opinions were
overruled by the narrow minded bigots
OF the empire. Ha was not allowed to
make the necessary preparations for the
conflic. which he saw was inevitable,
and in consequence China was disss-

He fully recognizes the advantages of
Western civilization, and is protecting
and encouraging Christian missionaries
to the extent of his ability. Bishop
Hendrix, of the Methodist Church,
South, has just returned to Chicago
from o trip to China, Cores and japan.
He brought with him message from
Ii Hung Chang to the American people,
in which he asks that they send over
men for the schools and hospitals OF
China, and promises to protect them.
He expresses full sense OF the great
obligations OF China to the American
missionaries and the Christian spirit
which cent them to hie country. More
men like him would be great blessing
