AMERICANS ALI SAFE
Only British Subjects We're
Killed at the VIVA Sang
Massacre.
VICTIMS BRUTALLY TREATED.
Were Burned to Death or
Murdered With Spears
and Swords. .

WASHINGTON, Aug 6.-The state de-
partment has received later intelligence
Of the killing of the missionaries in
Ku Cheng, China. The dispatch, like
the one received Saturday, was from
Consul General Jernigan, and shows
that no Americans suffered, but that
the massacre of British subjects was
greater than at first reported. The
consul generals dispatch is as follows:
Americans safe. None hurt. Ten
British killed"
Although Mr.. Jernigen does not use
the word missionaries" in his dis
patch, there is no doubt felt by the
officials of the state department that
he refers to them, and hat his dis
patch is intended as supplementary to
that Of Saturday. Much qualification
is expressed that the Americans have
not suffered, as the dispatch appears to
leave no doubt on that point. The Ca
blegram was at once forwarded to Sec
rotary Olney for his information.
Instruction to DENLY.
Up to this time, SO far as ascer-
tanned, no steps have been taken by the
navy department toward sending any
naval force to the district where the
reported massacre has occurred. When
word came of the trouble Saturday the
customary instructions were SEM to
Minister DENLY at Pekin to see that
American interests were protected. In
a response received the minister said
that small boats could reach the place

Pierre. Buyers from Chicago houses
are now IN this city and paving from 10
to II cents per pound for the wool as

cause cattle from the foot hills of the
Black Hills to be driven across to Pierre

when the Aberdeen Star mai asked him
what he thought Of the assumption Of
power by the circuit judge in enjoining
the state executive in Brookings college
matter. He replied: "That does not
need the opinion OF a lawyer,
as it is an elementary prin-
ciple taught IN our common schools and
is familiar to any school boy, that the
executive, judicial and Legislative
branches OF state government are indie
pendent OF each other and hat the ex-
ecutive in the exercise OF bis preroga-
tives can not be enjoined by the Judi

his father, r ev. VIM. Calhoun, had once
been pastor. The Charlottesville Progress
speaking of the aged couple, says:
"Her husband was also extremely Ill in
the house during her last sickness, buo was
kept in ignorance of his 'wife's death. He
constantly prayed, however, tha5 if one
had to die they might be permitted to die
together. Last night he also died, before
the arrangements for the funeral OF the
wife could be completed, and they will be
buried together tomorrow, the funeral ser
vices taking place at Olivet church, Owens
vile, at IL O'Clock A. M. Mr.. Calhoun
was ar excellent old Virginia gentleman

contact. He removed to Albetmarle from
Augusta county some years ago, and set
tied at Owensville, where he resided until
his death. He leaves several sons. @ho are

A Book by Former Staunton
Clergyman.

Rev. DR.. II. H. Halves of Bluefield, w.
Va, for many years pastor Of the Second
Presbyterian church of Staunton, has
written, and is about to publish, book
entitled ''BitIe church the mode
of preparation of which has been remark
able. The Bluefield Telegraph gives this
account Of it ::
stTo prepare it was rather novel under
taking. The suggestion came, about seven
year ago, from the Rev. Daniel Lord, D. D.,
of the state of New York to whom DR..
Halves was personally, an utter stranger,
though several Of his smaller works had
fallen under Dr. Lord S eyes. The dictated
conditions under which this book was to be
written was as follows No human au-
thority was to be consulted, nor in any
manner used whether Of persons or books.
Personal preferences and educational preju-
dices were to be put aside and utterly ig-
nored SO far as possible. In short, DR..
Halves was requested to make himself as a
sheet of blank paper upon which impress
sions were to be made for the first time.
The Bible was to be absolutely and literal
Nv the exclusive source of information.
After some hesitation the task was under
taken, and has been pursued most earnestly
and studiously. The work is now ready
for the press. It is impossible, in a notice
OF this kind, to give any just idea of this
book. To say the least, it is unique,
being an original and Independent search
through the Bible, in Hebrew, Greek and
English, in order to discover the answer to
one question: What is Gods own idea of
his Church Taking the church as fact,
where did it originate and what is its
character? Every system Of theology is
utterly ignored in this search, and the
answer is demanded from the pages of the
Bible alone"
The book is to be Of about 500 pages. and
the cost about 50, and subscribers may
send their n ames to the author at Blue
field. AS the Telegraph says: 1.-The au-
thor's object is not pecuniary profit, but
that the church may have the benefit of his
long and earnest studies at the least posi-
BILE cost. He desires nothing more than to
be able to meet the expense of publication.
Therefore let all who care for such work
forward their names to him at once, as in.
dicated above"
