from Vancouver. B. O., to the Tribune
says:
Passengers by the steamship EN-.
press of Japan give graphic descriptions
of the rebellion in K6w-L Loon. When
the vessel passed up the coast, from
Hongkong, the passengers saw the
smoking ruins of many villages, burned
by Britishers rs a warning to the re-
bellious Cinnamon.
"Seventeen Thousand natives were
then in instruction, and so serious
did affairs shape themselves on May
18th, that the Hongkong Volunteers
were called to the front. The Chinese
were simply chased from village to
village, with no show of resistance,
and the villages were burned.
"A British surveying party, while
surveying the route of the Yam Nan
railway through China, were attacked
and roughly handled. They fired their
pistols once into the air as warning,
then charged the mob. One China
man was killed, and 10 natives were
wounded. All the Cinnamon they
captured alive we're handed over to
the governor OF the prefecture, with q
demand that they be punished. To
the Britishers' surprise, headsmen
were sent for while they waited, and,
before they could retire their forces,
the prisoners heads rolled into the
baskets " assf r-ss s4tf--- ~

give the loudest cheer. He spoke Of
the fact that business men are recog-
nizing the value of the training at the
High School, and showed that much
had been accomplished despite the
fact that the school has only one
course, He expressed the belief that
no high school of similar kind is doing
better work. As to the discipline he
did not think there was better any
where; 1t was preserved largely by the
pupils themselves.
Prof. Berlin thought the boys should
have field for athletics, in which
they have done so well. He favored a
separate course to include manual
training. Pupils could thus have an
option. He said the association can
do good work, and favored its having
a room in the new school, In addition
to the graduating class having MEM
